As many of you will know, Peter Arbon (Hon OF) died on 12 April 2015. He gave his working life to looking after the grounds of Brandeston Hall and therefore many OFs will remember him well. There has recently been a service to mark his long association at Brandeston Hall and Bob Williams has been good enough to put together this tribute .
