The Boxford Masques Originally, masques were lavish musical spectacles staged for kings, queens and courtiers. Early last century, in Boxford, well-to-do Charlotte Peake began writing her own ‘masques’ for performance by family and staff, and for the enjoyment of her arty circle of friends. Her stage was a natural amphitheatre at the top of Hoar Hill, overlooking most of the county. In ten years they became a village tradition.
Boxford is a lovely village with plenty of things to do. There’s a big recreation ground and a fantastic village hall.
While there are no schools in Boxford anymore, kids can easily travel on a bus to Stockcross Primary School.
Even though the village used to be more rural, many of the residents now work outside of the area.
The village hall, which was built in 2014, is a great venue for events.
There are two halls to choose from, a preschool hall and a community hall, and you can open the wall between them if you need more space.
There’s also a fitted kitchen, disabled facilities, and plenty of parking.
If you’re looking to spend some time outdoors, you’ll find a dedicated children’s play area, tennis club, and a recreation ground with space for BBQs.
The local church, St. Andrew’s, has been around since the 11th century.
It has been updated over the years, but parts of the building are still over 800 years old.
If you need to get around, there’s the handy bus service which is run by volunteers.
The local council is Boxford Parish Council.
