Clare is a small town on the north bank of the River Stour in Suffolk, England. It is 22 km from Bury St Edmunds and 14 km from Sudbury. It lies in the Suffolk. As a cloth town, it is one of 'threads'. Clare is the current holder of Year. It has a cultural exchange relationship with Chatillon-sur-Indre. Clare and its vicinity reveals evidence of man's long habitation throughout prehistory. The historical record demonstrates a community which changes and yet persists across centuries, from the Norman Conquest through religious strife, agricultural upheaval and industrial revolution to the present day.

The town will host one of the very first free schools established by the current government.

As part of the Heritage Lottery Funded Masterpiece scheme, in April and May 2011 Archaeology (ACA) will be giving residents, school pupils and members of the public the chance to carry out their own small archaeological 'test pit' excavations throughout Clare to find out how the town developed over hundreds - even thousands - of years in the past.

Traditionally associated with fast flowing upland streams in the north and west of the British Isles, the grey wagtail tends to be more commonly encountered here in East Anglia only during the winter months. Also, most oddly, it seems to have a fondness for hanging around on roofs too. Perhaps they make do as replacement hills!

The shapes in the sky could be seen by the naked eye as a massively bright light, this is confirmed by two further witnessess. I knew this was not the correct place for a sun reflection as this was almost below the horizon at the time. When i reviewed the video it was clear that there were three orbs flashing/ moving. If anyone has any video enhancement programs to refine the image, this would be much appreciated.
