Capel St. Mary history
Early history
The village was listed in the Domesday Book as part of the manor of Boynton. An early thirteenth century charter from nearby Dodnash Priory was the first to mention it by its current name. Evidence of a villa was found during construction of council houses on Windmill Hill at the west end of the village in the 1930s.
20th century
During the second World War, the village was frequented by American airmen from nearby RAF Raydon. Men from the village were involved in two local Auxiliary Units, Wenham and Capel, part of the 202nd battalion of the Home Guard. The Wenham unit was based at a dugout under Jermyn’s Farm to the north of the village, and a short distance away housed their supply of explosives. In 1960, initial plans were drawn up for significant housing development and mains sewerage.
