"The boundary between these two parishes staggers backwards and forwards across this road like a drunken man" - Philip Tibenham.

Nationwide reports from a quaint little Suffolk village of Rickinghall in East Suffolk, and sometimes West Suffolk, and then back to East Suffolk. It largely depends on whether you're talking about the parish of Rickinghall Inferior - which is largely in West Suffolk, or Rickinghall Superior - which is largely in East Suffolk, though not always. Did we mention that at some point they both merge into Botesdale? It's complicated.
