Little Green Space Food waste has featured in the news in recent months, and some of the statistics quoted make for rather sobering reading. While one in eight people around the world are going to bed hungry every night, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation estimates that around a third of all food produced globally is wasted. Food is wasted during production, and supermarkets throw an alarming amount away – last year one major UK supermarket chain was responsible for binning 300,000 tonnes of food in just six months. But almost half of the UK’s food waste happens in the home – and that’s something that can easily be avoided. Research shows that the average British family throws away the equivalent of six meals

every week – costing each household around £60 a month. So by being careful about what goes into the bin, we can save ourselves a lot of money – and help the environment at the same time. It’s easy, too – here are eight simple steps to prevent food waste. Write a list. Planning ahead is key if you want to make sure that all the food you buy actually gets eaten. Check to see what’s already lurking at the back of the cupboard, fridge or freezer – then plan out the week’s meals, incorporating ingredients you already have and need to use up. Write a shopping list for everything else that’s needed, and try not to buy anything that isn’t on the list. If you don’t stick to the list, you risk buying more than you really need – and overbuying is one of the

main reasons that food gets thrown away. Understand date labels. There are two types of label to be aware of. “Use by” means just that. Usually associated with meat, dairy and fresh ready-meals, the food should be consumed before the “use by” date to prevent the risk of illness. Food can be frozen before the date shown to eat later – just make sure that defrosting instructions on the packet are followed carefully. The “best before” date on food just indicates when that food is at its best. After this date the food is still edible, but may not taste as fresh. Cook once, eat twice. Even the most careful plans can change at the last minute. An unexpected invitation or work meeting can mean you don’t have time to cook. Because you don’t always know what the week will bring, it’s a good idea to cook extra portions when you do have time. For example, mince and tomato sauce can become spaghetti bolognaise, lasagne, chilli or a filling for jacket potatoes. Extra portions can be put in the fridge for the next day, or frozen and used when you’re too busy to cook – which may stop you reaching for the take-away menu and save you money! Serve perfect portions. While it’s tempting to pile

up a plate, it’s much better for your wallet – and your waistline – if you reduce portion size. Uneaten food left on a plate is likely to go in the bin – but if it’s untouched and still in the pan, it can be stored in the fridge or frozen for another day. Mashed potato, cooked vegetables, pasta sauces, casseroles and curries all freeze well for later use. And you can always serve up second helpings to hungry family members once they’ve cleared what’s on their plates! Eat fruit and veg. Fresh vegetables and salads make up a large percentage of discarded food. Avoid throwing away fresh produce by storing it correctly. It’s usually best to

A hoard of Late Iron Age coins found at a local beauty spot is displayed in a new Derbyshire County Council exhibition. The treasures were discovered at Reynard’s Kitchen Cave in Dovedale, managed by the National Trust, and have since been undergoing conservation at the British Museum and University College London. They will are now on show at the council’s Buxton Museum and Art Gallery, where other archaeological finds from Dovedale are already on show. The hoard includes a Roman brooch, three Roman coins which predate the invasion of Britain in AD 43 and 20 gold and silver coins from the first

LORD COE MAKES SPECIAL VISIT TO HOPE VALLEY COLLEGE Team GB Olympic legend Lord Seb Coe visited students from across the Hope Valley at Hope Valley College recently. During Lord Coe’s visit, College and primary school students were treated to special assemblies which included a Q&A with the double Olympic champion and the man credited with securing and organising the 2012 London Olympics. Following on from the Q&A Lord Coe was the official starter for a series of inter house 800m races – an event in which he held the world record himself. He then toured a showcase of activities students regularly have access to within HVC’s PE programme including cycling, mountain biking on the College’s own trail, climbing on the dedicated wall in the sports hall, fencing and boccia. In the afternoon Lord Coe was a prominent spectator at the annual Primary School Cross Country competition. College students organised the event as part of their sports leadership course.

A Bradwell woman will be running the 2015 Virgin Money London Marathon to support the life saving work of St John Ambulance whose volunteers help thousands finish the race each year. Kristine Leaper, 34, hopes anyone who won a place in the ballot, without choosing a charity to support, will now join her in fundraising for the nation’s leading first aid charity. She is urging runners – whether they’re one of the lucky ballot place holders or are among the 100,000 people who failed to gain a ballot place – to apply to St John Ambulance. The charity still has plenty of spaces available to runners willing to fundraise on its behalf. ‘I’ve chosen to run in aid of St John Ambulance because I have been running for a number of years and now feel ready for the challenge of a full marathon – and what better challenge than the London Marathon! As a St John Ambulance volunteer, I regularly provide first aid at public events in and around the Hope Valley, and have been a first aider at many fell racing and marathon events,’ says Kristine. ‘I can’t think of a better charity to fundraise for at the marathon because without the St John Ambulance first aiders lining the route, thousands of runners would be forced to pull out of the event because of injury or illness.’ Mrs Leaper, who is a shop worker at Bradwell Fisheries and mother-ofone, has been a St John Ambulance volunteer at the Hope Valley Unit for almost two years. She is also going through the process of becoming a Community First Responder volunteer. She plans to hold fundraising events in the lead up to the marathon next year. Anyone who wants to support Kristine can do so via Bradwells Fisheries. Kristine also plans to put collection tins in some shops in Hope Valley to help support her cause. Kristine will be among nearly 200 runners fundraising for SJA in the Virgin Money London Marathon on 26 April. The race route will be lined with SJA first aiders, ready to treat runners and spectators for a wide range of injuries and medical conditions. More than 1,000 SJA volunteers from all over the country will be on duty with approximately one volunteer for every 35 metres of the 26.2 mile course. The team will include first aiders, doctors, nurses and paramedics working closely with the Virgin Money London Marathon’s own Medical Director and team of doctors. St John Ambulance has

We are raising funds to obtain a defibrillator for the village after the recent collapse and death of a cyclist highlighted the fact that we do not have one.

helping a fantastic cause while getting a lot of support from us along the way.’ All runners fundraising for SJA are supported by a dedicated marathon coordinator in the months leading up to the event. They receive an SJA running vest, advice on nutrition, fundraising as they prepare for the big day.

This year its medical team treated people with problems ranging from blisters to more serious medical conditions commonly associated with endurance events – including dehydration, stress fractures and exerciseinduced collapses. Sabina Pasokhy from St John Ambulance’s National Fundraising Events Team, said: ‘We’d love to hear from any runners who either failed to secure a place in the ballot or those who won a place but haven’t chosen a charity to fundraise for. ‘Our work is often quite literally the difference between life and death so our runners know they’re

CHURCHTOWN PRIMARY SCHOOL Best School Garden Silver Award

On behalf of East Midlands In Bloom, Mike Backler presented a Silver Award for the Best School Garden to Churchtown Primary School. He also gave a short talk to the pupils, supported by the headmistress Mrs Janine Stillwell, and the motivator behind the gardening club, Mrs Elaine Goodban, about the In Bloom movement. On 8th July, Rupert Atkinson, one of the judges of East Midlands In Bloom, visited the school to assess the work performed towards the Best School Garden. He spent some time talking to the pupils and was immensely impressed by the number of bird feeders and nest boxes, the large bug hotel and insect homes. Through an active ECO Club, the children take part in mini-beast hunts and the club also produced signs to guide the pupils in good practice. The school is working towards RHS Level 1, awards in practical horticulture, with a number of planters and tubs decorating the main school area in conjunction with raised beds at the edge of the sports field opposite. A portfolio of activities

O NO RD PRE W FO ER -CH R YO has been maintained covering the growing and harvesting of several crops including potatoes, peas, red currants and strawberries. This will provide a sound basis for future activities. In addition to all of the above, a special activity in 2014 was the production of a well dressing to commemorate WW1. This was placed at St Helen's Church and blessed by Rev Stephen Monk. The school then carried on to support Darley Dale In Bloom's

CURTAIN UP

AT BAKEWELL TOWN HALL

Bakewell now has one of the largest ‘state of the art’ stages and access to lighting and sound systems in the area. This has arisen from an investment of over £12,000. On 23rd October, past and potential users of this facility were invited to a launch event. This included a performance by the Bakewell pantomime group (Shoestring Players) with a hilarious part by Reverend Canon Tony Kaunhoven as Widow Twanky and Philip Proctor as Ebanazer, followed by the PIVA Group playing some Renaissance music on authentic instruments. The

Shoestring Players will be performing Dick Whittington on the stage from 22nd to 24th January under new management Trustee Jonathan Wicksteed said that “after several years of investment and improvements Bakewell now has a leisure facility to be proud of, right in the heart of the town”. To find out more about what the new Town Hall has to offer for shows, weddings, parties and business, contact Events Organiser Janet Blackburn on 01629 828230 or events@bakewelltownhall. co.uk

The Peak Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s C o l l a b o r at i ve Lawyers are joining forces to raise awareness of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Family Dispute Resolution Week. From November 24-28, solicitors across the country will be promoting the annual initiative to highlight the options available to separating couples who wish to avoid court action.

Both heads of family law at Cockertons in Bakewell â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a division of Sheffieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Taylor&Emmet LLP â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and Favell Smith and Lawson in Hathersage are experienced Collaborative Lawyers and are working together to make it easier for residents to access a full range of dispute resolution services locally. Collaborative Law involves separating couples attending a series of face-to-face meetings with their legal representatives, during which a settlement will be negotiated that suits both parties. Michaela Heathcote from Cockertons was one of the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Collaborative Lawyers. She said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This process is quicker and more cost effective than court action, as couples can set their own agenda, focussing on issues that are important to them. It is particularly valuable when children are involved, as it keeps lines of communication open and reduces the strain on the whole family.â&#x20AC;? Cockertons runs free dropin sessions to answer queries about family law, childcare issues and mediation every Monday from 10am to 1pm and Wednesday from 2pm to 5pm. For further information about Collaborative Law, contact Cockertons in Bakewell on (01629) 812613, visit www.cockertons legal.com or follow the firm on Twitter, @tayloremmet.

ROWSLEY ROUND UP Rowsley WI have been more than busy these last few months, so a round up of recent events is needed! We have had a run of WI first timers providing the inspiration this season, starting in September with the wonderful Dianne and Jeremy Hewitt who gave us a fantastic insight into New Zealand culture with a slideshow of their own travels and a craft workshop of Māori bracelets. The photos were breathtaking, their talk informative and entertaining, and the various souvenirs that they brought to show us so interesting and beautiful. A trip to the other side of the planet is now definitely on our ‘to do’ list. October saw two events hosted at Rowsley Village Hall - a lighthearted history of Sex Education from our very own President, Tanya Thomas, which raised a few giggles and one or two eyebrows as we considered the things that adults have decided to tell teenagers over the last few centuries. Most recently, we opened the doors of the Village Hall to our local group of WIs (Elton, Darley Dale, Matlock, Starkholmes and Whatstandwell) for a Mad Hatter's Tea Party. We were delighted to have Lady Manners School’s Year Eight Drama Club provide us with a superb vignette of scenes from Alice in Wonderland their acting, confidence and conduct were truly amazing, and the collected WIs wish to thank the students themselves and their school for such a fantastic addition to the WI calendar. November’s meeting, on the 13th, will be our Annual General Meeting, where we will be wishing Tanya Thomas a fond farewell as President and looking to appoint new Committee members for the new year.

RICHARD WHITTLESTONE

Wildlife artist Richard Whittlestone opens his winter exhibition on Saturday 15th November, at his gallery in Pilsley on the Chatsworth estate. On show will be some exceptional new original paintings, plus beautiful pen and ink studies available as originals or in open print form. Richard has been working on a series of landscapes, though as he says, these do tend to sell quickly, so getting a selection together for the wall can prove tricky! Along with the originals will be some wonderful limited edition prints, Christmas cards, and the 2015 calendar. The gallery will be open every day from November 15th, 10am-5pm and is well worth a visit. www.richardwhittlestone.co.uk 01246 582720.

COTTON GRASS THEATRE PRESENTS: The Unreturning Army

£275

Calver Film is really pleased to welcome David Frederickson and the Cotton Grass Players on Saturday 15th November 2014 at the Village Hall, Calver starting at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £10 each. tel 01433 630760. Charity raffle will be in aid of Bakewell and Eyam Community Transport. The Unreturning Army is a performance of words, music and poetry, which looks at the impact of the First World War on the villages of the Peak and the people who lived there. How did they live through an upheaval that lasted four long years, took so many lives and then changed the world forever? Ordinary people like Horace Johnson, born in Youlgrave, who fought at Gallipoli, who never spoke about his experiences until he was persuaded to write about it at the end of his life. And Vera Brittain from Buxton, whose life at Oxford University was interrupted by the war, a conflict that robbed her of a fiancé, her brother and some of their friends. It is also the story of the men of the Notts and Derby Regiment – the Sherwood Foresters – which so many Peak District men joined in 1914. Performed by Peak Districtbased Cotton Grass Theatre, Musical Director: David

Westbrook. It is a moving story of love, loss, patriotism and great bravery, told with music, reminiscences and the poets of the War: Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen and others.

Fun Fashion Show GUIDE DOGS FOR THE BLIND

We held our charity fun fashion show at Masson Mills, Matlock Bath on the 10th October. Our amateur models performed admirably on the cat walk and displayed a fine collection of daywear and evening wear. Andrew, our presenter throughout the evening, did a superb job and made the evening fun and entertaining. Supper was served during the interval followed by a raffle with lots of prizes. The Bakewell and District Branch of Guide Dogs for the Blind would like to extend a very big thank you to the management and staff at Masson Mills for hosting the fashion show and to all those who attended. We are very pleased to announce that the sum of £675.50 was raised. This amount will go towards the breeding and training of new guide dogs. These marvellous dogs help blind and visually impaired people to enjoy a much more independent lifestyle. Many thanks once again to everyone who helped to make this a most pleasant evening.

FLORAL FROLICS DOWN THE DERBYSHIRE DALES No: 4 – DEEP DALE (The one near Topley Pike!) to the east of the lagoon in equally impressive numbers are the family representatives of one of my most cherished of all native flowers – orchids. Early Purple, Common Spotted; the occasional Southern Marsh – paradoxically by virtue of industrial disturbance; and lastly not forgetting Twayblade and Fragrant who flaunt their perennial charms by the thousand. Most dales have their

‘signature’ plants and Deep Dale is no exception. During the month of flaming June, for a quarter of a mile, its west-facing slopes are splattered with the brilliant cerise pink flowers of a species called Geranium sanguineum – the Bloody Cranesbill. And, for the perceptive eye, there’s a colony of Trollius europaeus ensconced behind a lofty crag. Happy frolicking, folks! Stephen ‘Mid’ Middleton

Fine craftsmanship & beautiful design Is this the heart of your home this season? There are in fact two Deep Dales (the other being the one near Sheldon which I shall treat as the topic of a frolic in the not-to-distant future) and, to confound the matter further, they are neighbours on the road between Buxton and Bakewell. But, in spite of the confusion, to find where this one lives is relatively straightforward. Take the A6 from Bakewell to Buxton. Climbing Taddington bypass the carriageway then levels and after about a mile and a half abrubtly descends. At the bottom of the gradient look out for a quarry on the left:

Topley Pike. There is ample kerbside parking. But, do not obstruct the works’ approach if spaces are snatched by Peak Trail cyclists. Follow the footpath to Chelmorton marked by an old metal sign on the left of the quarry junction. The path winds around the stone wash and settlement lagoon and almost immediately the visitor is served with a taste of what’s to come: Knapweed, Scabious, Harebell, Hawkweeds, Marjoram, Hypericum and Oxe-Eye Daisy. In July, look out for some superb specimens of the orchid Broad-leaved Helleborine

peeping from beneath the Hazel coppice. And that’s before you’ve even entered the nature reserve. However, I must impart a word of caution. It quickly becomes apparent that this Eden does not want to yield its fruits lightly. All explorers must dodge the gauntlet of nettles that guard the portal to the reserve, whose stings are positively satanic! I believe it’s the only occasion on my floral frolics I’ve uttered the expletive ‘strimmer’! Once having crossed the threshold, make your assent of the steps to the upper level and the wide gravel

track that courses parallel to the second lagoon. Without a moment’s delay, all along the dale, legion after legion of divine wild flowers seem to tumble down the sides to greet you. A rapt compensation for such an ungodly right of passage. The first on the scene will be Meadowsweet, if you’re visiting post-midsummer. Here, it is ubiquitous. Look below into the valley of the neighbouring Churn Hole and you can see what I mean. So densely does it crowd the floor that it deserves to be read the riot act! Occupying the dalesides

Tideswell Community Players present Michael Frayn’s Alarms and Excursions, a suite of short comedy plays which examine the difficulties modern technology has added to life – with, for the audience at least, hilarious results. The seven pieces range from a dinner party doomed to failure as one-byone labour saving devices become hostile, to a tonguein-cheek revisiting of the days before we all had mobile phones, when communication between those on the move could become fraught with difficulty. At 7.30pm at Fountain Square Church, Fountain Square, Tideswell (opposite

Vanilla Kitchen café).Tickets £8 and £6 (concessions) from Tideswell Post Office or Litton Shop, bookings on theatre@tideswell.net, or from 01298 871063. Or on door.

On Saturday 18th October the Darley Dale In Bloom committee held an open evening for many of their supporters and sponsors during the 2014 campaign. A presentation of projects and activities conducted throughout 2014 was given including a summary of the results of their efforts – just 6 points off a Gold Award! New potential projects that the committee thought would be useful for 2015 were also presented. This was a valuable opportunity to enable supporters to see how their contribution fitted into the whole picture of Darley Dale In Bloom. The highlight of the evening was the additional projects identified from within the audience, reflecting their specific interests including a number of fundraising ideas including: digital photography, story writing, and art competitions; a music composition and

recital evening and hosting a number of events such as a tea-party or tennis tournament. One groundwork project suggestion was to create bug hotels and maintain woodland area around The Tippings. Brilliant catering was provided by the committee volunteers who prepared a fantastic buffet – many compliments were received about the food on the evening! The committee were privileged to have some new names come forward to undertake projects in 2015 – it is essential to maintain previous projects in good order whilst undertaking new projects in the quest for a Gold Award in the near future. If you think that you would like to be involved, would like to influence the way the town improves its image then please make contact through the dedicated website: www.darleydaleinbloom.co .uk

This year is writer Laurie Lee’s centenary. To celebrate this, local group Hope Amateur Dramatic Independent Theatre (HADIT) are in rehearsal for a delightful stage adaptation of his classic memoir Cider with Rosie. Published in 1959 and never out of print, at the last count this much-loved book had sold over six million copies worldwide. The lovely language of the original has not been lost as the recollections of Lee’s childhood in a small Gloucestershire village between the two World Wars are brought imaginatively to the stage. Simple settings are used to create a swirl of village life: a table upturns to become a cart or a bus; chairs become a merry-go-round or corn sheaves. All the children are played by adults and the cast of 19 portrays a rich variety of characters, from Miss Crabby B, the ruler-wielding school teacher, to the two warring grannies, Er-Up-Atop and ErDown-Under. Performances will be at Hope Methodist Hall, Edale Road on Thursday 4th and Friday 5th December at 7.30 pm. Tickets (£7.00 with refreshments) are now available from Hope Post Office.

The Kinder Challenge is an introduction to the Scouting walking competitions and is aimed at the younger Scouts and Guides, a 16km circular route from Chapel-en-leFrith. The Kinder Extreme is a gruelling 28km route that starts in Edale and takes in parts of Kinder Scout in the Peak District, this is aimed more at the older Scouts, Guides, Explorers and Network members, competitors must be over 13 years of age.

This year’s event showed a fantastic amount of teamwork from all those who entered and both previous records were broken in the Challenge. Winners of the Kinder Challenge Trophy: 12th Halifax Sea Scouts – Explorers, with a time of 1hr48mins and the Blagreaves Boot Trophy: 1st Chapel-en-le-frith ‘A’ Team with a time of 2hrs 05mins. The Kinder Extreme sees five trophies being competed for and again the teamwork and camaraderie was at the front with those already finished clapping in the teams as they arrived back. Results were Kinder Trophy : Sagarmatha ESU ‘B’ with an impressive 4 hours, Pennine Shield winners were Sagarmatha ESU ‘A’,

the all female team Edale Shield was won by Phoenix Ladies in 4hrs 41mins, Fusion Network won the Network Trophy in 4hrs 43mins for the third year running, and Quest ‘A’ won the Ron Anderson Trophy in an impressive 3hrs43mins. Congratulations go to all teams who took part and made it such an enjoyable fun and challenging adventure for the County again this year. We hope all will return again next year to defend their wins.

Renowned folk singer John Kirkpatrick comes to Winster with his brand new show ‘Tunes from the Trenches’. Following the huge success of his solo shows ‘Carolling & Crumpets’ and ‘The Victorian Farmer’s Year In Song’ – based on his appearances on the popular TV programme Victorian Farm – he now presents a full kitbag of songs from the two World Wars in celebration of the centenary of World War I and the seventieth anniversary of D-Day. As you’d expect, there’ll be a fair smattering of the popular hits of the day designed to keep the spirits high, to raise a smile, share a chorus, and provide a moment’s respite from the horrors on every side. And John will also give an airing to some of the songs sung on the front line by the service personnel themselves – tunes on everyone’s lips, conjured up far from home by an army of ordinary folk doing their

best to be good soldiers. You’ll hear how experiences on the front were dealt with and described with great directness, wit, robust humour, and, occasionally, very fruity language. This stirring new programme is presented in costume with John’s usual panache and energy. Producing an amazing amount of volume for one person, John fills the room with music, with a voice of great dynamic range supported by his sparkling squeezebox playing. This is a heart-warming show, with occasional poignant moments in amongst the jolly choruses, celebrating the comradeship and spirit that allowed those previous generations to keep smiling through. The show is on Friday14 November at 8pm in the Burton Institute, Winster DE4 2DQ (bar opens 7.15). Tickets are £8 (£6 for children still at school) from Winster Post Office or 01629 650090.

MATLOCK ARTISTS SOCIETY

On Saturday, October 18th, Stephen Ashurst was invited to Matlock Artists Society’s monthly meeting to demonstrate portraiture. He is well known for his portraits and has a unique style, which enables him to work quickly, so that he can achieve a very good likeness by the end of a morning. For a model, he selected member, Tony Renner and started with a detailed drawing which he then loosely painted over with a selection of thin colours before building up the picture with thick paint. It was fascinating to see

keep vegetables in their original packaging – a shrink-wrapped cucumber, for example, will keep for much longer if you leave it wrapped up. Check the state of your fruit and vegetables regularly, to see which items are going past their best and need to be eaten first. Making soup is a great way to use up less than perfect veg – and you can also quickly blanch and freeze things like beans, cauliflower, cabbage and brussels sprouts. Bread is another frequently thrown away food item – 24 million slices were thrown away in the UK last year. Large loaves can be divided – half to eat now and half to pop in the freezer for another day. Any bread that is about to go

stale can be turned into breadcrumbs in a food processor and frozen for future use. Breadcrumbs are useful in stuffings, fishcakes, or mixed with cheese to make a topping for savoury dishes. Love leftovers. The Love Food Hate Waste website (www.lovefoodhatewaste.co m) has a brilliant interactive tool that offer dozens of recipes and suggestions for ways to use up leftover ingredients. Too many tomatoes? Try tomato and cheese gratin. Cabbage and carrots past their best? Treat yourself to vegetarian sushi. Compost. Some kitchen waste is unavoidable and things like fruit and vegetable peelings, eggshells, teabags and coffee grounds all need to

be disposed of. It’s really important, though, not to throw this kind of rubbish in the bin. When sent to landfill, food scraps produce methane – a greenhouse gas 20 times more potent than carbon dioxide – as it rots down. Rotting food in landfill sites also produces leachate, a highly toxic

liquid that needs years of collection and treatment to prevent it from becoming a hazardous waste and polluting ground water. There are two ways to prevent kitchen waste from ending up in landfill. The first is to compost your scraps – and if you are a gardener, this makes perfect sense, as you end up with lots of rich, crumbly goodness for your vegetable garden and flowerbeds. Or, if you don’t have a garden, most district and borough councils will collect food waste along with your kerbside recycling. Energy and water are used to produce our food, package it and transport to shops and into our homes. Taking a few steps to reduce food waste – or even taking just one step – will reduce your carbon footprint and save you money. Food is a valuable resource – let’s not throw it away!

TALK OF THE DALES

LOCAL CHARITIES JOIN FORCES FOR A MAGICAL LANTERN LIT WALK Two local charities are joining forces for a repeat of last year’s hugely popular Winter Lantern Walk which saw 250 people taking part. Bakewell and Eyam Community Transport and Helen’s Trust are inviting everyone to a magical evening which

includes a lantern lit walk along the Monsal Trail to Thornbridge Hall, and entertainment from the Babbling Vagabonds. The event is set to take place on Thursday 13th November and will set off from Bakewell Station at 5.30pm. The route is approximately 3 miles long and walkers are asked to bring lanterns and torches to light their way. Helen’s Trust mascot, Bakewell Bear, will be handing out the hugs as walkers set off to walk the Monsal Trail to Thornbridge Hall. ‘The evening last year was a real success.’ said BECT CEO Edwina Edwards. ‘We’d love community groups, schools and families to join us and help raise vital funds for two important local charities.’ Walkers will be accompanied by local theatrical storytellers The Babbling Vagabonds, who will add a very unique dimension to the event. They will also keep everyone enchanted at Thornbridge Hall while walkers enjoy their hot chocolate. Tickets and sponsor forms for the evening are available from Helen’s Trust office (above Boots in Bakewell 01629 812759). Tickets can also be purchased on line from the Helen’s Trust website www.helenstrust. org.uk, where all event details can be found. The cost is £7.00 for adults and £3.00 for children and will include the entertainment at Thornbridge Hall, drinks at the end and transport back to Bakewell Station. Organisers ask that participants please wear suitable clothing and footwear, and bring lanterns and torches (no naked flames). Unfortunately dogs are not allowed.

BAKEWELL'S PUDDING CLUB at BECAUSE I LIKE IT On Wednesday 29th October Steve and I went to try out the new Bakewell’s Pudding Club Menu at Because I Like It. The menu choice on that particular day was: Chunky Vegetable Soup £7.95 Cottage Pie £9.95 Chicken and Mushroom Pie £9.95 (Soup served with a roll, or gluten free bread available if required and pies served with mash and peas) plus you get to sample unlimited puddings available from the buffet as part of the Special Wednesday Menu Offer. Puddings we had to choose from were Fruit Crumble, Bread & Butter Pudding, Chocolate Sponge with a hot chocolate sauce or Rice Pudding. The Wednesday offer also

includes a mug of Yorkshire tea or a mug of filter coffee, which I think you will agree is great value for money. Although Steve could not manage a dessert as he was full after his cottage pie, I was really naughty and had two portions after my delicious chunky vegetable soup. With the desserts being gluten free also it was a real treat for me as very few places offer gluten free desserts and, for those of you who don’t need gluten free food, let me tell you that they’re just as tasty. For those of you who don't have a sweet tooth or a large appetite, you can just have the Soup, Cottage Pie or Chicken Pie at the usual cost. We would highly recommend this Wednesday Winter Warmer and will certainly be having

a return visit ourselves! The Wednesday Lunch Menu is served between 12 and 3pm. Children Under 8 are half price and Under 5's

£3.95. Because I Like It, Diamond Court, Water Street, Bakewell DE45 1EW (near the library and swimming pool).

BAKEWELL W.I. OCTOBER MEETING Bakewell WI held their October meeting on Tuesday 21st and had a very enlightening talk by their Vice President Gill Roberts, about life as a Diplomat’s wife in the 1960’s and 70’s. Wherever their husband’s posting was in the world the wife (and it usually was in those days) was expected to set up home and support the family virtually instantly. Often they would stay in a hotel initially, and then she would have to find them a place to live. At this stage their heavy luggage like pots and pans would not have arrived, so items had to be borrowed from other wives. An association was eventually formed to help support them as it could be very stressful. There was variable information available about postings, but emphasis was put on being on duty at all times. While it was difficult for wives to find work without losing their diplomatic immunity, Gill did find jobs in various places they were

posted. She did Radio work in Yugoslavia and teaching pre-infants in Costa Rica amongst many others. Sometimes security was difficult, such as when they were posted in Bolivia during its many Revolutions which were quite frightening. Here too it could be difficult to get food. There were no supermarkets so they had to buy off the street and there were always shortages. It was difficult to buy clothes and they had to make some of their own. At formal occasions they were expected to wear hats, gloves and stockings. Despite its many difficulties, it was an exciting life, where they met many interesting people and made very good friends. Gill also felt quite privileged on occasions such as when she was able to visit the Pope’s private quarters in Rome. Nominations were taken for the election of a new Committee after the talk, as several current members were ready to step down. A new Committee will be appointed at the Annual Meeting on Tuesday 18th November when there will also be a Pot Luck Supper. Meetings are on the third Tuesday in the month at 7.30pm in the Friends Meeting House, Chapel Row, Bakewell. Visitors and new members are always welcome, for more information call Rashelle on 01629 810355 or Gill on 01629 813414.

CAN YOU HELP A LOCAL CAT RESCUE CHARITY KEEP THE CASH IN THE KITTY? Cats Protection’s Derby and District Branch needs to recruit a volunteer Treasurer to organise funds and enable the charity to help even more cats. The Branch, which is run entirely by volunteers, needs someone who can spare a few hours a week to oversee its finances. Experience in accounts/book-keeping is desirable and ongoing support will be provided. The branch does a huge amount of work to help local cats but, due to the retirement of our present Treasurer, we really need someone as soon as possible to help us keep our finances in order to help us increase our work,” Des Tait, the Branch’s Co-ordinator said. He added: “They don’t have to be a financial expert, as the charity can provide assistance and support materials, but we do need someone who cares about cats and has bags of enthusiasm. By sparing a few hours a week it can make a huge difference to needy cats. We are sure whoever takes on the role will find it incredibly rewarding. It’s also a great way to make new friends – both human and feline!”

Cats Protection is the UK’s leading cat charity and the Derbyshire Branch is part of a nationwide network of 257 volunteer-run branches and 30 adoption centres that together help over 218,000 cats each year. As well as finding new homes for unwanted and abandoned cats, the charity also offers cat care advice to the public and can help towards the cost of neutering. If you are interested in this role and would like a copy of the job description, then please call Jane Baynton on the Branch’s Catline on 01332.206956 or email on enquiries@derbydistrictcp.o rg.uk for further information and to arrange an informal chat.

ANOTHER AWARD FOR THE OLD HOUSE MUSEUM At another splendid evening of jazz at the museum, Ros Westwood, our curatorial advisor, presented us with an award for two town trails devised at the museum. The ‘Hill of History’, otherwise known as ’Secrets of Old Bakewell’, by Anita Spencer, Michael Hillam and John Cooper provides a knowledgeable and entertaining guide who will bring you from the Tourist Information Centre, through the town and up past the church to the museum, discovering fascinating history, legends and even myths as you go along. Susan Hillam and Jo LonglandJames devised the ‘Ramases Trail’, aimed at children, who collect a leaflet and special stickers from the TIC and follow a map through Bakewell, spotting different animal images on buildings along the way. At the museum they find Ramases the ram. Signing their name

BERTHA DOXEY VISITS NATIONAL MEMORIAL ARBORETUM, ALREWAS

On Tuesday 21st October 2014, Bertha Doxey (93) from Cromford travelled to the National Memorial Arboretum, Alrewas in Staffordshire to attend the unveiling of the memorial for the Women’s land Army & Women’s Timber Corps, more commonly known as Land Girls and Lumber Jills. The memorial is to commemorate the 240,000 women who worked the land and forests in both WW1 and WW2. The bronze statue depicts a land girl carrying a pitchfork linking arms with a lumber Jill holding a felling axe. The ceremony saw over 300 ex Land Girls and Lumber Jills come together, along with HRH Countess of Wessex GCVO to celebrate the unveiling, for which £85,000 has been raised. In Bertha’s own words, “The day went very well, and it is marvellous that the Land Girls and Lumber Jills have finally got the recognition for their hard work during the War years”. Bertha enlisted in the Women’s Land Army in 1939. She travelled to Newark where she was issued with her uniform and taken to work at the Kelham sugar beet factory, transporting the beet to

Bertha Doxey with daughter Sue and Jane the factory, driving a with trailer. standard Fordson tractor Bertha was sent to

Retford to join a thrashing gang, she carried out this task until 1943. Followed by a posting to Surrey, she became the milking parlour manager where she took charge of 3 milkings per day. Then onto Banbury. She met a Canadian soldier, Joe, who let Bertha drive his Willys Jeep which she promptly parked in a hedge, the Jeep being somewhat more lively than the Fordson she was used to! Sadly Joe did not return from Omaha beach during the D Day landings. During 1944 Bertha was driving a tractor and trailer. It came to light that she had never obtained a driving licence, she was put through her driving test and a licence issued. Most of the test was spent stationary in heavy traffic, little did she know but this was the mobilisation of the D Day troops and the following day the roads and camps were empty and silent. In 1946 Bertha was demobbed and returned to Derbyshire where she married ex Grenadier Guardsman Victor Doxey, settling in Cromford. Fund-raising is ongoing.

On 27 October 2014 – Over 130 local Nestlé Waters employees, Derbyshire Wildlife Trust supporters, local schoolchildren and members of the community descended on Pavilion Gardens in nearby Buxton to take part in Nestlé Waters first ever ‘Get Better with Nature’ Community Day of Action around the Peak. The army of volunteers were joined by Andrew Bingham MP, High Peak Borough Councillors Jean Todd, Linda Baldry, Keith Savage and Lynn Stone and other local community groups to create a new wet meadowland habitat in the famous town landmark. Hosted in partnership with Derbyshire Wildlife Trust and High Peak Borough Council, the event saw community members clear away dead wood, grass mowings and scrub as

well as plant nearly 600 bluebell and wild garlic bulbs as well as other wetland meadow plants. The result is the creation of a new wetland meadow for generations of residents and visitors to the park to enjoy. In order to better understand how interacting with nature can have physical, mental and social benefits, participants took part in additional interactive activities such as wildlife observation and natural art creation, even contributing to make a 39m2 Get Better with Nature logo using organic material found on site. The Get Better with Nature campaign is a collaborative, long-term programme aimed at helping raise awareness of the value of nature and its services to health,

THE CAVENDISH BANANA

Whenever you enjoy a banana, it is highly likely to be the Cavendish variety, probably descended from a single plant grown at Chatsworth 170 years ago. Nearly all the sub-tropical banana trades depend on the Chinese or Cavendish dwarf banana. Bananas started life perhaps 10,000 years ago somewhere in south-east Asia – the word banana is Arabic for finger. It may have been the world’s first domesticated plant and its British debut arrived in 1633 at a herbalist’s shop in the City of London. Only the very wealthy could afford to cultivate this rare treat. Just before Christmas in 1834, William Spencer Cavendish, 6th Duke of Devonshire, wrote

to the Chaplain at Alton Towers: ‘My Dear Sir, A thousand thanks for the Banana, it arrived quite safe and I am delighted to have an opportunity of seeing that most beautiful and curious Fruit. It is the admiration of everybody and has been feasted upon at dinner today according to the directions.’ By the following year the Duke’s gardener, Joseph Paxton, was successfully growing bananas at Chatsworth. Tradition held that Paxton had been fascinated by the depiction

of a banana plant on some Chinese wallpaper at Chatsworth. He guessed that the banana must be native to China and became intent on obtaining a specimen. As time went by, the story about the wallpaper seemed to be just a myth – nobody could find the illustration. It was only when the room was rearranged in the 1920s/30s that the banana, hidden for years behind a large four-poster bed, came to light. Musa Cavendishii By this time Chatsworth had been growing bananas for nearly 100 years. In 1829 a batch of plants had reached England, where one of only two surviving specimens was later bought for the Duke of Devonshire by Paxton. He named it Musa Cavendishii (the Cavendish plantain) and in 1836 a Chatsworth-grown banana was exhibited at the Horticultural Society Show, causing a sensation and winning for Paxton the Knighton Silver Medal. A few years later the Duke supplied two cases of plants to a missionary named John Williams, destined for Samoa. Only one Musa Cavendishii survived the journey and that single specimen was the forebear of bananas which still flourish in Samoa and other South Sea islands. Poor Williams, however, was beaten to death in 1839 and eaten by the natives of Erromanga in the New Hebrides, supposedly in reprisal for cruelties previously carried out by an English boat crew. Hangovers, Jet Lag and Warts Chatsworth archives contain a reference to a later export of the Cavendish banana. Notes written by Robert

Hardie refer to its introduction to the Pacific by his missionary father Charles Hardie: ‘Before leaving England my father arranged for the interchange of food plants and tree or flower plants with the then Duke of Devonshire (this must have been 1853) ... ’ The Hardies, father and son, had travelled ahead of a whale ship carrying amongst its cargo the cases from Chatsworth. On arrival the plants appeared to have rotted but on the off chance that a few stumps and roots were not quite dead, Charles Hardie planted them. A small number survived, allowing the eventual distribution of banana plants and roots to mission stations on other islands. The first Chatsworth plant is considered to be the origin of stock introduced to the Canary Islands in 1855, where Musa Cavendishii still plays an important part in the local economy. We eat an average of 100 bananas per person a year in the UK, with the Fairtrade label covering 35% of all banana sales. Various concoctions of the good old Cavendish banana are claimed to be good for curing hangovers, jet lag, morning sickness, mosquito bites and warts. And the banana has other claims to fame: it inspired the songs Yes, We Have No Bananas (written by Leon Trotsky's nephew in 1923), The Banana Boat Song and a Velvet Underground LP cover with a peelable banana. Also the Banana Splits, Bananarama, Billy Connolly’s curved yellow boots and the expression to ‘go bananas’ (credited to Liza Minnelli, talking about her psychiatric problems.) Finally, and surely coincidentally, the last suppers of both Elvis Presley and Robert Maxwell included a banana. Julie Bunting

employed as the voice of the US Armed Forces radio in South East Asia – but it soon emerges that his idea of entertaining the troops and the Army’s are poles apart. It is the sheer frenetic genius of Williams’ largely improvised radio monologues that accounts for the film’s original boxoffice success. Also stars Forest Whitaker and directed by Barry

Losing energy and money This is the message that too often the believers in climate change seem to be putting out. It’s all doom and gloom. We must mend our ways, put on layers of hair shirt and turn off the central heating, stay at home and not use our cars, never go on holiday by plane, and so on. Whatever we do, we’re all on the slippery path to destruction. It's a totally depressing scenario so we might as well carry on eating, drinking and being merry because, inevitably, tomorrow we'll all end up in

a complete mess. There is no denying that we, as a race, are using more of the earth's resources than we should; that changes have to be made if the growing w o r l d population is to survive; that in order for all to have a good life some of us will have to tone

down our lifestyles. But it is, as they say, doable. Zero Carbon Britain is the title of an evening at the Friends Meeting House, Chapel Row, Bakewell at 7.30pm on Tuesday 11th November where we will be looking at what it will take for us to power down our waste of the earth, but to carry on living a full life. It is possible, it is even possible to make it better. Where climate change is concerned “the real problem is that we can't imagine the solution”. Come along and exercise your imagination – it’s free and it could change your outlook. Making It Better is the title of a series of evening meetings to be held over the next few months. This is one of the follow up activities to the highly successful Bakewell Green Festival held last July – watch out for others. In the meantime go to www.bakewellquakers.org to see videos of the Green Festival and information about future events.

S. ANSELMS ANNOUNCES EXPANSION OF SCHOOL TO GCSE LEVEL Over the last 125 years S. Anselm’s has provided an outstanding education that is respected nationally by senior independent schools. It takes pride in this success and will continue the traditional Prep School education into its future. There is however clear interest from current and prospective parents that quality day provision up to GCSE in the local area is an option they would wish to consider. After looking carefully into the matter, S. Anselm’s is proud to announce the opening of a new section of the school that will teach from Y9 in September 2015 and continue through to GCSE in subsequent years. This new section of the school will be known as S. Anselm’s College. The Headmaster, Peter Phillips, said, “It is indeed

Rees and Jane Moulder. Wherever they perform, Piva’s exuberant and colourful presentations draw great acclaim from audiences: ‘if you have a chance to hear them, jump at it!’ ‘this was early music at its most entertaining’ ‘Piva performs with style and panache’ ‘taking late 16th century dance and ballad tunes, Piva makes them ring out in the early 21st century. They bring the music of the 16th century to life.’

The concert is on 21st November at the Wheeldon Hall, Highfields School, Lumsdale, off the Chesterfield Road, Matlock, DE4 5NA starting at 7.30pm. Tickets are available at the door before the concert at £10. Under 18s, students and registered jobseekers pay half-price. All seats are unreserved. There is ample parking at the school. Further information is available on our website www.matlockmusic.org.uk or by phoning George Wolfe, tel 01433 631308.

Members of the Wirksworth Transition Initiative work together to create “a road map” for a sustainable future, including energy production, health, transport, education and food production. They are a community level response to the end of cheap energy, to the problems of our financial system and to climate change. Reports are published in their newspaper, “Transition Free Press”. On Tuesday, 14th October, the group presented the film Gasland2 to a full house at the Northern Light Cinema in Wirksworth. The film told people about the world-wide and controversial practice of hydraulic fracturing to extract shale gas, a fossil

fuel. It showed how fracking, which releases many gases including methane, can affect air quality and underground water supply so that drinking water for humans and animals is often made undrinkable. The film also showed the effect on people’s lives and how difficult it can be to curb this industry by resort to law and protection agencies because of the power of these international fracking companies. After the film, the audience were given information about the group Frack Free Nottinghamshire, set up to oppose an application to start fracking in the neighbouring County. The next meeting of

Transition Wirksworth will be on Tuesday, 11th November, at 7.30pm in the Memorial Hall, Wirksworth, when Professor Bill McGuire of Brassington, Professor of Geophysical and Climate Hazards at University College, London, will give a talk on “Climate Change – From Bad to Worse”. Transition Wirksworth are also having a social gathering and short A.G.M., open to anyone, on Thursday, 11 December at 7.30pm at the Hope and Anchor pub in the Market Place, with updates from the Growers, Energy and Rubbish groups, followed by games, live music and conversation.

LIVE MUSIC IN THE DALES – Piva

A piva is an Italian Renaissance dance that originated from a peasant dance to the accompaniment of bagpipes. An appropriate name, therefore, for the band of the same name which will be appearing at Matlock Music’s concert on 21st November. The concert is entitled “Measure for Measure – Music from Shakespeare’s Time”. The group was formed over a decade ago with the aim of bringing a fresh and energetic approach to the popular dance and ballad repertoire of the late Renaissance period. All members of the group are multi-instrumentalists, playing up to 40 instruments at a concert, many of them made by the artistes themselves. So expect to hear curtal, bagpipes, shawm, rauschpfeife, crumhorn, viol and many more rare and beautiful instruments played by Eric Moulder, Anne Wride, Tony Millyard, Jude

the strength of the Prep School and the quality of its teaching which allows for this extension. Boarding, all events and Prep School characteristics will continue as now and all pupils will be prepared for Common Entrance and scholarships irrespective of their destination at 13, ensuring academic rigour and high standards. The key essence of our Prep School, where children remain children, is equally appealing to parents

of children up to sixteen. This unique experience is something we will protect.” Experienced specialist teachers will be appointed to work throughout the whole school, increasing and enhancing the excellent teaching already enjoyed. The Governors plan to redevelop the school’s facilities so that all children will benefit from these changes. S. Anselm’s looks forward to an exciting future.

Book Review VIEWS OF MATLOCK BATH AND ITS ENVIRONS of the Derwent. We are Miles invites us to look, to

This impressively weighty full colour publication captures almost 80 evocative aspects of our most photogenic inland resort. Uniquely, Matlock Bath appears as though in retirement, revealed completely free of its renowned glitz and bustle – excepting perhaps for a very distant glimpse of a firework display – and most miraculously, with not a soul in sight. Neither a car, bus nor even a motorbike on the station car park, where summertime spaces are often packed to capacity. Yet, as the introduction recalls, Matlock Bath has been ‘a promenade of penny arcades and petrifying wells, sweetshops and museums, dancehalls and cafes for well over a century’ – and thanks to its thermal waters also a place to seek healing and solace. Shades of famous visitors include Lord Byron, Ruskin, Constable and Joseph Wright. Full-page images now reveal a surprising other world, far removed from the familiar busy road below the magnificent tors and gorge

privileged to linger in secret corners lying in sleep, coming across half-hidden tasks abandoned to the hues of time and nature. Here is a Matlock Bath beautified by mossy stone steps and tufa fountains, fungi and glossy ferns, and ‘cliffs of ossified sea monsters 300 million years dead’. A photographer and teacher, George Miles has ventured afoot through this magical environment throughout the seasons – in sunshine and snow, mists and moonlight. To quote Jeremy Millar, artist and tutor in art criticism at the Royal College of Art, London “…

look, and to look again, to look more and to look better, the better that we might find beauty in that which surrounds us, and find meaning in that beauty too.’ Views of Matlock Bath and its Environs is printed in hardback on sustainably sourced paper by Black Dog Publishing. Available through local bookshops price £19.95 (currently in stock at Scarthin Books). To order quote ISBN 978 1 908966 82 7. Publication has been made possible by funding from the Arts Council England and Nottingham Trent University. Julie Bunting

getting the best value out of the seed you buy. Pauline Pears worked at Garden Organic for over 20 years, as a gardening advisor, writer and editor. She now works as a freelance speaker and runs courses. She has 3

allotments and is “addicted to veg growing, making compost and seed saving”. All meetings at Elton Village Hall. Everyone welcome. Membership £12.50 a year. £2.50 per meeting for non-members.

Our next evening talk again stays local when Estate Warden Bill Gordon will talk to us about looking after the North Lees Estate and Stanage Edge. This stunning local area was in the news last year when the Peak District National Park Authority changed its mind and decided not to sell the estate, despite large cuts in their funding by central government. The great amount of public interest generated in the possible sale showed what an iconic area this is to so many people. It’s not surprising as so many people visit this area to climb, walk, look at wildlife or just enjoy the scenery. Stanage

Edge is about 3.5 miles long and is one of the most impressive gritstone edges in the Peak District. Long Causeway, an old Roman road lies at the mid point of the edge and there is much history in the whole area. Old millstones lying under the edge tell of how suddenly their manufacturing industry died. As well as Stanage, the North Lees Estate includes a 480 hectare farm raising traditional sheep and cattle, a campsite with fantastic views, 8 woodlands, traditional farm buildings including a Grade 2 listed cruck barn, and the famous North Lees Hall. This is an Elizabethan building, which is now leased to the

Vivat Trust who use it for holiday accommodation. When Charlotte Bronte visited the area in 1845 she saw the Hall and used it as the base for Thornfield Hall in her novel Jane Eyre, writing it into history. One of the best times to visit this area is at the height of summer when the heather is in flower, but in a good year masses of cotton grass in flower also make an impressive sight. If you are lucky during a summer visit you may see ring ouzel or pied flycatcher, and whinchat and wheatears are also around. Of course there are the red grouse too. Unfortunately lots of

visitors bring the problems of erosion and litter. Lots of climbers can cause problems with nesting birds, but Bill has worked with British Mountaineering Council representatives to introduce temporary climbing bans to relevant areas, which has worked very well. Long Causeway has also suffered great erosion problems due to off-roading traffic. This is going to be a really interesting talk about an area dear to many of us, so do come along on Monday 17 November at 7.30pm to the Medway Centre, Bakewell to hear the talk. Admission is £2.50 and everyone is very welcome.

contemplation, capturing photos of a pair of dippers dabbling about in the Wye before I began the steep zig-zag, knee knocking, heart-racing ascent towards Cowlow, where I accessed a path leading along the top edge of Wye Dale. Not the most frequently used route, it was difficult at times to determine the actual path from sheep tracks. Thank goodness for occasional fingerposts, way marker arrows and my ‘Sixth Sense’ to guide me. The fields here were full of sheep but as their offspring

have now gone off to market I experienced ‘The Silence of the Lambs’. ‘The Descent’ to Blackwell Mill was amazing for its aerial views and different perspective on Chee Dale to the Monsal Trail norm. It was a real surprise to find a little tunnel beneath the railway line and a path leading to the terrace of cottages by the bridge. All this adventuring and adrenalin rush left me in need of a sugar fix which I achieved by chompsing a piece of rich chocolate brownie and a cuppa at ‘The Cabin in the Woods’ run by the owners of Blackwell Mill cycle hire. Luck must surely have been with me that day as it turned out to be their last day of opening before the seasonal closure until spring. Another stroke of luck was to be able to follow the fabulous walk beside the river back to Wye Dale car park, my ‘Final Destination’. The autumn colours of numerous beech trees added a golden glow to the end of my walk. However, please note that this walk is most definitely not intended as a walk guide and please DO NOT attempt to follow in my footsteps, because the road from Wye Dale to Blackwell Mill became closed on Monday 3rd November to both traffic and pedestrians whilst a new footway is being laid. It could well be closed for several months and there is no alternative route to walk back to the car park. Had luck not been on my side I could have been found ‘28 Days Later’ wandering around the Dale trying to find a way out.

Pickford wagons brought back return loads to the Peaks, making them the original haulage carriers of their time and it was here that the horses were changed between London and the north. A pumpkin was on display outside one of the houses, whilst across the way a huge cobweb decorated the wall of a barn conversion, a frightening sight for anyone with ‘Arachnophobia’. Leaving the village beyond the butter cross which was restored in 1937, I walked along the road marked ‘unsuitable for motors’ but turned right as it began to descend and followed instead a slippery footpath downhill, a risky route as I then had to cross over the railway line where occasional goods trains still run. However this was a doddle in comparison to dashing over the A6 beyond. A few minutes were spent in quiet

It was November 1st and I was all fired up from spooky celebrations the night before, so I thought I would try out a bit of a scary walk with a ‘Halloween’ theme. If there’s one place that gives me the creeps, it’s Deep Dale leading up from Topley Pike. I hadn’t been there for years and when I returned I remembered why. Deep Dale is sometimes called Demon’s Dale and I wouldn’t want to be down there in the dark! This steep sided limestone gorge is oppressive, dank, drab and downright dreary at the best of times. It probably blossoms a bit in spring with wild flowers, but on a grey November day there was not much to write home about. Parking at Wye Dale, I carefully crossed the main road and headed up the narrow fenced-off path at the entrance to Topley Pike Quarry, passing danger signs for deep excavations, quicksand and possible explosions, the thought of which had me quaking in my boots. Could this be ‘The Omen’ of what was to come! Bearing right on a steep bank, I followed a fingerpost sign for Deep Dale and began the slow process of picking my way carefully over jagged rocks, loose stones covered with camouflage leaf litter and slitherbank scree, ever conscious that this is not the best place for air ambulance to land and definitely a tricky trek on a stretcher for mountain rescue.

With the forecast predicting a dry and partially sunny day, how come the clouds were rolling in and I was beginning to shiver? It could well have been worse had I been enveloped by ‘The Mist’ or ‘The Fog’! I came to two caves, one descending deep into the bowels of the hillside, whilst the other looked like a gaping mouth in ‘Scream’ mode. Excavations have shown these caves were inhabited by man over 1,000 years ago and possibly dating back to prehistoric times. Just before Ravens Tor a flock of large black rooks flew above like they had escaped from a hidden tower, all I needed now was for a formation of bats to fly out of one of the caves or a ’Woman in Black’ to walk past and I would have been seriously spooked. Arriving at Horseshoe Dale I opted out of following the Priest’s Way and ascended from the doom and gloom to heavenly heights and far reaching views as I followed the bridlepath to King Sterndale. Rather strangely it was at this point that the sun suddenly came out again. Looking back down into the Dale I could clearly see the gaping cave entrance in the rock face as though ‘The Hills Have Eyes’ hereabouts. My walk through King Sterndale was lovely. Christ Church was built in 1847 and designed by Sir Henry Hawkins. In it I found memorials to the Pickford family as well as some excellent examples of carved oak which are the work of Advent Hunstone of Tideswell. King Sterndale Hall was the home of the Pickford family who founded the famous firm of carriers. Thomas and Mathew Pickford owned a large quarry in the Goyt Valley below Derbyshire Bridge, where stone was quarried to pave many famous roads including Regent Street in London. Their covered
