What a lovely video and so great to your happy faces - you are both looking very well. What a lovely sunny day. 🌞The tree looks like a Fig Tree - they usually grow near old manor houses or in walled gardens. What a superb tour of Needham Market - not somewhere I've ever been before so I found it interesting. Many Thanks and look after yourselves. xx🙂
Wonderful, and yes, I agree with you about the noise levels these days. I'm in New Zealand and we don't have talking trucks here [thank God]. I so enjoyed this. Thank you
Absolutley love seeing all your beautiful villages. So interesting. You should carry a history book along so you could give us background information on the places you visit.
Hi Richard and Julie lover chuch roof in amazing with windows and village town looks great some old buildings great to see things round very interesting history great video
Looks like a bloody great fig tree - I don't think I've ever seen such a big one. Queen Square, WC1, used to have loads of them, when I was working there forty-odd years ago. Probably still there - but bigger, now. If I remember rightly, some kind of ficus - related to rubber plants(the houseplants).
Richard it is a tradition in both Suffolk and Norfolk to pebble dash buildings . The one that was being prepared to be done nowadays they just spray it on. Instead of manually putting it on .
Hi Richard & Julia, so very good to see you both out and about, I love these walks, been missing you both! @10:43 Blue plaque..."...Site of enemy bombing 19 Oct 1942 four civilians killed & many injured"...I just thought it was worth of mention. Really lovely look around Needham. The Church is really beautiful and I love the sign "Needham Market's Medieval Masterpiece", it certainly would be worth another visit. Thank you so much, take really good care, stay well! Lots of love Kathy x 🌺🌸💖⛪
Tolly Cobbold was the name of a beer at one time. Beautiful little town/village. Maybe you and Julia should move to Suffolk....but would you miss the sea ?
The Pightle I think means a small inclosure or small field. I really enjoyed your stroll round the town. Shame the beautiful place is so noisy. The Church roof was really unusual . Thank you. I look forward to the English Couple videos .
It means a triangular shaped enclosure of land used to house pigs. Source: I used to live on that road and my wife wrote a book of tales from local history! Also it's pronounced pie-tull.
Interesting point about the pebble dash. The A14, (then A45) was the high street at one point and I imagine that the pebble dash may have held up better to the erosion of road dust.
The first building you passed at the start of this (excellent) video was I believe a former pub, although I have no local knowledge. The wording on the upper storey- "Tolly Cobbold" is the name of a former Suffolk brewery, based in Ipswich I think and probably the owner this property. Thanks for the tour.
tolly cobbold is the name of the brewry .it was a pub. there is a rain bride at the end of the high st but please dont take you transit under as its 7ft something.glad you had a good time.
Is it a Mafia wake ? lol. And can anyone give me an idea of how ceilings like that were built ! No screws or hammer drills. Just some old knowledge past down. Until is wasnt passed down and kept secret.
And that dog is why you Richard and the Lovely Julia should have a Spyderco UKPK (legal) one handed folding knife clipped into your pockets. Also good for bread and cheese and apples. Like English Gents and Ladies.
Once tyrannies no longer afflict the west, we will be stronger, wiser and more productive. End the cartels. Stop the extortion rackets. End governmental dependencies and privileges. 1 equal and just law. No more privileges. End the monarchy!

Naughty Elephants Squirt Water! What a stunning church, I'm glad you went inside. Thank you.
Everyone needs the lovely English couple, lovely old buildings and yes please go back to that amazing church.
Wonderful, and yes, I agree with you about the noise levels these days. I'm in New Zealand and we don't have talking trucks here [thank God]. I so enjoyed this. Thank you
Another lovely town. Beautiful day and walk around. Thank you for all these amazing videos.
Absolutley love seeing all your beautiful villages. So interesting. You should carry a history book along so you could give us background information on the places you visit.
I love your recognition of the hammer beam roof of the church.
Hi Richard and Julie lover chuch roof in amazing with windows and village town looks great some old buildings great to see things round very interesting history great video
Lovely village ,just shame about the noisy busy road , lovely to see you back in a new video Julia and Richard 😊

Lovely Church, thank you both for another great video.
Thank you both for this video - really enjoyed the tour! Was lovely to see the awesome church too!
Hi Richard and Julia it was lovely to meet you at The Limes in Needham Market thoroughly enjoyed your talk and thank you for signing my light paper ❤️
Hi Richard and Julia it's a fig tree !!!
Richard it is a tradition in both Suffolk and Norfolk to pebble dash buildings . The one that was being prepared to be done nowadays they just spray it on. Instead of manually putting it on .
I really love your vídeos. And the cooking ones are my favourites.. when the Autumn and the festives seasons are just around the corner. Thank you 😊

Tolly Cobbold was a brewery (two breweries that combined). They had an eponymously named beer though, so you are correct.
Lovely to see a small town life down the south of 🇬🇧
I live in the village and you missed so much of the village and its history
Sadly so. Is there anything you can tell us in case we go again?
You ought to go to Lavenham in Suffolk it is a Tudor village !!
Ooh, good cal! 💜
You both would love Lavenham. Not too far away.❤️
An overhanging first floor is called Jettied
It’s a fig tree we have on, great to see you back on xx
The overhang was there so that when the people threw out their 'toilet doings', it went into the gutter and not down the front of the house.x
Ew! 😅
The Pightle I think means a small inclosure or small field. I really enjoyed your stroll round the town. Shame the beautiful place is so noisy. The Church roof was really unusual . Thank you. I look forward to the English Couple videos .
Thank you lovely Anne 💜💜💜
It means a triangular shaped enclosure of land used to house pigs. Source: I used to live on that road and my wife wrote a book of tales from local history!
Also it's pronounced pie-tull.
That’s a FIG tree in the beginning.
There was a blue plaque on the wall by Needham Autocentre. I am curious to know more about it.
Interesting point about the pebble dash. The A14, (then A45) was the high street at one point and I imagine that the pebble dash may have held up better to the erosion of road dust.
If you're ever back up Norwich way again Richard, do visit Cromer and Sheringham. Lots of independent shops there.
This is a fantastic channel!
Tolly Cobold is a local brewery building would have been a pub 🍻
The pub was called the Bull I believe.
The first building you passed at the start of this (excellent) video was I believe a former pub, although I have no local knowledge. The wording on the upper storey- "Tolly Cobbold" is the name of a former Suffolk brewery, based in Ipswich I think and probably the owner this property. Thanks for the tour.

Please Go and film
Flatford mill ,that features on the picture of John Constables The Haywain
It’s not a catalpa tree( Indian bean) ..nice farm shop and resteraunt in Needham..nice walk down by the river and mill..
12:22 is part of the Limes Hotel bar area called " Bugs Bar "
Looks like a Brown Turkey Fig Tree.
Not a huge fan of your other Richard, but I enjoy the ad hoc nature of your 'The English Couple' vids .....Oh I believe it's a fig tree.
Its an old old Fig Tree.
An interesting little town but it surely needs a bypass road with all that through traffic.
There is a bypass road. The A14, between Ipswich and bury st Edmunds. That's actually just local traffic. Between stowmarket and Claydon..😊
I am from Suffolk
Toe toe....total crazies 😅
Its a fig tree 👍
It's the river Gipping!
It's a shame you don't have the free Flora Incognita app on your phone, it could have identified that tree for you 😊 x
The church was built in the 1400's after 1458. So, a few centuries older than you stated.
That tree is a Fig tree
I have a friend who lives there
I live very near there, in stowmarket.....
Hello fellow local! Needham resident here :-)
they pebble the out side as the brick or timer buildings are very porous
Tree could be a common fig?
10:41 missed a blue plaque.
Lath and plaster
Is it a Mafia wake ? lol. And can anyone give me an idea of how ceilings like that were built ! No screws or hammer drills. Just some old knowledge past down. Until is wasnt passed down and kept secret.

Lovely. Hope people curb the urge to be political in this page and keep it neutral. 🏴
Once electric cars and vans are more common place there will be a lot less noise and pollution to boot.
Once tyrannies no longer afflict the west, we will be stronger, wiser and more productive. End the cartels. Stop the extortion rackets. End governmental dependencies and privileges. 1 equal and just law. No more privileges. End the monarchy!
