The official opening of Grafton House
The official opening of Grafton House, Ipswich Borough Council’s new headquarters, was marked by the last captain of the former Royal Navy frigate, ringing the ship’s bell in the foyer. Cdr Robert Bellfield joined the Mayor of Ipswich, Councillor Henry Davies, at the event in Russell Road. Over at Whitton Sports Centre, a Council team took on RG Carter, the team who built the HQ, at a football match. The Council won 9-5 and a collection raised £65 for the Somebody’s Daughter appeal.
