The Mendham Wormhole

4/4/2014

For those of you who don't know, my hometown is Mendham, NJ, rated "number one in New Jersey Monthly’s 2013 Top Towns survey." I went with my grandparents today to go see Mendham, UK! It's a tiny village on the border of Norfolk and Suffolk with approximately 440 people (according to Wikipedia). There are three main things in the village: a church (very big for such a small town), a school (that I got to visit), and a pub (named after their "most famous son," Sir Alfred James Munnings).

Since it was so small, there wasn't too much to do in Mendham. We started in the church, then moved towards the center of the village and the school. Lunch was had in the pub, which had great food. I recommend it to anyone out there!
I did get a chance to see the school, which had 28 pupils Years 1 to 6. It was a really cool little school with two small classes with several years in each room. They had a hall which housed PE classes, mealtimes, and assemblies. One main problem they mentioned was the need to cater for kids with special needs.
