PEAKLAND LIVELIHOODS Cheese Making Time Cheese is referred to in the Old Testament, so we can be certain that its production has a long history. Greek and Roman warriors ate cheese to give them strength, and in spite of today’s move away from fatty foods, we now have more varieties than ever before. For hundreds of years cheese making was a particular skill of farmers’ wives, daughters and dairy maids. Some produced only enough for their own family, for others it brought in useful income. Weekly cheese markets came to be held at Derby, Ashbourne, Bakewell, Chesterfield, Uttoxeter and Leek, plus

annual cheese fairs including Bakewell, Tideswell and Winster. Derbyshire cheese was the staple diet of Peakland lead miners and large numbers of coal miners in neighbouring counties. Great quantities were sold at Nottingham’s annual Goose Fair. The traditional start of the cheese making season was 12 May and it was strenuous work. Farmer Fred W.Brocklehurst of Sheldon, born 1891, left this description of cheese making in his younger days: ‘Most of the farms were very small in those days, from fifty to seventy acres, and money was very scarce.

Cheese making was the main source of income. This started about mid-April, and usually two farmers joined so as to make bigger cheeses. The cheese was made in a big pan holding about forty gallons and the one who was not making took his milk evening and morning to his partner, and the milk was measured in a gallon can, then a pint, and a tally was kept of how much one owed or was owed. The cows were all milked in the fields by hand all summer, sometimes the milk being carried on yokes with perhaps another can held in front, for almost a mile. ‘Some of the milk was heated on the fire to bring it all up to a certain temperature, and rennet, or part of a calf’s stomach, would be added, the pan covered up and left to turn. When the milk had turned into curd, mother would first use her arm and then a wooden bowl to break it down and divide the whey from the curd, which was then pressed to the bottom of the pan and the whey taken off. The curd was then cut up, put into a cloth and then under a small press to clean it of more whey. After

It was then put into a cheese vat, with a tin garth fitted inside that could go down as weight was added, and it was then put under a large press consisting of a very large square stone fitted on to a screw and fixed in a frame. After a day or two in this, it was taken out and put into a drying room. Even in those days there was much foreign competition and I remember father Continued on Page 12

A series of charity lunches is held every year at Saint Giles during Lent. Sometimes it is a soup and cheese lunch; at other times a ploughman’s. At one of the lunches this year we raised £147 for a small charity in Gyumri, Armenia. North-west Armenia was devastated by an earthquake in 1988, which destroyed the city of Spitak, and much of Gyumri. International aid came quickly and helped many people who had been

traumatised by the destruction of their homes and the loss of life. As always, however, the overseas help disappeared once the initial rescue had come to an end. That part of Armenia has three cultural groups: the Apostolic Armenians, Old Russians and Yazidis. It is part of the culture that sad things are always hidden. It became apparent to many that people with special needs were not being helped. In some villages

WIRKSWORTH AND DISTRICT AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL GROUP EVENT – 12th MARCH As part of International Women's Day, Wirksworth and District Amnesty International Group are hosting an event to highlight the plight of women and families in refugee camps across the world. This emotive, often controversial topic will be covered by keynote speakers from the Derby Refugee Advice Centre, Spectrum Derbyshire and the Anti-trafficking Labour and Exploitation Unit. Together they will provide a unique, local slant on how the refugee crisis is affecting the lives of women and families and what we can do to help. 'Families in the Refugee Camps' takes place from 24pm at Wirksworth Memorial Hall, St John's Street, Wirksworth DE4 4DS on Saturday, 12th March. Please come along - you will be most welcome. Refreshments served.

We also have a varied social calendar. We are looking for all voice ranges from soprano to bass and would welcome anyone with a love of music. No audition necessary. If you are interested, see our website, baslowchoir.co.uk or talk to Gill on 07967 619257 or 01433 630952, or just come along and try us. You will be made very welcome.

neighbours might not know that in the next house a child had been born with some physical or mental disability. It was not so bad for the boys, for they could be set to work in the fields or on the mountains with the goats; but for the girls, life was totally indoors. Agate was founded by Karine Grigoryan in 2009 particularly to support women with special needs, and organised a drive to recruit and train volunteers and to seek out the hidden young women in the

villages. Soon a craft and training centre was set up in Gyumri, and training began in earnest. A DVD was produced to illustrate sign language in American English and Armenia. Many of the women were trained in embroidery, beadwork, hairdressing, IT skills and as beauticians. Some have even been able to return to their home villages with the means to earn a living. Saint Giles has been supporting Agate for some years now, and will continue to monitor its work.

THOUSANDS RAISED BY SCHOOL STUDENTS FOR LOCAL FOOD BANK AND DRINKING WATER CHARITY

Highfields School has been busy raising money through their house system. £400 was donated recently to Jigsaw, a local food bank in Matlock, as part of its charity fundraising programme. Each year all of year 7 complete a sponsored walk and over £3000 was raised. Recently almost £400 was given to First Taste charity. Last week Hannah Clapham and George Jennings, both year 8, of Ignis House handed over a cheque for £400 to Jackie Hughes from Jigsaw, which is run by Church in the Peak. Eight boxes of food were also collected. Highfields' Head of Ignis House, science teacher Helen Ould, said, "Our students have shown real commitment to supporting Jigsaw. They chose the charity themselves, keen to support a local organisation that makes a real difference to disadvantaged people in our area, and proved to be very energetic in their fundraising.” Aqua House chose to raise money for Aquabox, a local Cromford-based charity which sends filters to provide clean drinking water. As well as £400 from

Michael Cruttenden from Aquabox visited Highfields recently to accept the cheque. Head of Aqua House, maths teacher Rebecca Brown, said, “I am very proud of the way our students have been determined to make a difference to people in need of clean drinking water.

WIRKSWORTH MAYOR’S CHARITY GIG

‘Slim Chance’ are back in Wirksworth on Saturday 19 March to perform for the Mayor’s Charity gig. This is the band formed by Ronnie Lane, bassist and songwriter for both the Small Faces and The Faces. When the latter reached superstar status in the 1970s, Ronnie walked away from the band, disillusioned with the lifestyle. He then formed Slim Chance, so named because members were realistic about their chance of success. Nevertheless they bought a circus big top, hired performers and cancan dancers and toured the country with ‘The Passing Show’ to perform anywhere they could, including open fields, village halls and village greens. Ronnie Lane died in 1997 but in 2010 some of the original band members decided to take his music back on the road. The modern day Slim Chance still sticks to Ronnie’s ideals and play to small venues where his music can be really appreciated. Over the years the band has played alongside a veritable Who’s Who of British rock music, not least Eric Clapton, Pete Townshend, Cat Stevens, Roger Chapman and Bill Wyman. The Mayor’s Charity concert takes place on Saturday 19 March in Wirksworth Town Hall at 8pm. Tickets £12 in advance or £14 on the door/concessions £11 and under-18s, £5.

BOOKS AND CAKES

The work to repair Heage windmill continues apace, sail painting by volunteers is now almost completed and the millwright is hard at it in his Lincs workshop. But it all needs paying for so fund raising of all sorts continues. The latest was a highly successful Book and Cake morning held in the mill undercroft on Saturday. Lots of people responded to our cry for help and a large number of books and almost as many homemade cakes were sold (or eaten!). The event raised a total of just over £390, all of which goes into our Trouble at Mill Appeal (TAMA)*. Plans are now in hand for another musical evening to be given by the BelCanto choir. This will be held on April 15th at

now is your chance! As part of a Midlands tour, the play is visiting both Bakewell and Derby's Guildhall during the first weeks of April. The many-talented Collene Webb has not only written the adaptation from the novel, but stars as Anne and has also composed some magical songs, setting the poems of the book's Canadian author L.M. Montgomery. It's a real feast for the eyes, ears and emotions, featuring a superbly talented cast of five and beautifully designed costumes. Directed by Monyash resident Simon Corble, (co-creator of the West End and Broadway hit “The 39 Steps”) expect some inventive staging

and lots of laughs too. When asked what made audiences rave about the production so warmly, Simon replied, “It's such a classic story – the little redhead orphan girl who nobody wants, but who through sheer force of personality turns the small backwater of Avonlea upside down with her pranks, mishaps and endless, inventive chatter – it is a wonder it is so rarely staged. It is not often you get such a warm feeling in a theatre and I love the way it is appealing to people of all ages.” The play runs from the 7th to the 10th April. There are evening performances Thursday to Sunday at

Matlock and District Antiques and Collectables Society Mr John Morgan from Sheffield Auction Gallery gave a talk on his childhood memorabilia. These were boy’s toys, he started with models of minis but soon branched out to boats. This did not go too well as his Christmas present of a triple screw Vosper turned out to be a double screw, which on its first outing was scuppered by his little sister falling in the lake and the Vosper smashing into the wall! We were then treated to a showing of models starting with a homemade horse and cart from Germany dated 1880/90, Meccano bar 12” long

circa 1910 and still made today. He told us of the great toy maker ‘Bing’ who was French but had a factory in Germany in 1914 confiscated at the beginning of the war. We have the Germans to thank for the arrival in England of two refugees prior to the Second World War who started Corgi and Dinky toys. Corgi made die cast cars and the advent of ‘James Bond’ gave them 1,000,000 car sales, a record. The next meeting is a favourite ‘Mystery Box’ by Leo Leader on Friday March 11th at 7.30pm in The Imperial Rooms Matlock, visitors welcome.

Statistics published by the Land Registry show a healthy increase in North Derbyshireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house prices, rising 3.7% last year. But that positive momentum may be set to change. On April 1, the government introduces an additional 3% stamp duty levy on properties that are classed as a second home â&#x20AC;&#x201C; this includes buy to let purchases. It even applies to houses that would not usually be subject to stamp duty because they are below the threshold. Considering the average terraced property

will set you back around ÂŁ140,000, the new higher rate tax means an investor or someone looking for a holiday home will have to find another ÂŁ3,750 in stamp duty. So what effect will the changes have on the local property market? Despite rising prices, sales volumes decreased in

performed in the village, by local people, and was much enjoyed by the youngsters from Matlock. The President of Matlock Rotary Club, Peter Kidd, said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is wonderful to be involved with taking Matlock children to see a traditional pantomime. Everyone had a really good time and enjoyed the show to the full. Matlock Rotary Club is very pleased to help local children experience the joys of a pantomime.â&#x20AC;?

THE MATLOCK FORUM CLUB At the meeting held on Tuesday 23 February 2016 Mr. Trevor Wragg gave an illustrated talk on Dry Stone Walls. These walls are a familiar sight to members of the Forum Club. In his talk Mr. Wragg gave new insights into these walls of which so many are still visible today, often after hundreds of years, and he went on to discuss the materials used in them, the great variety of styles and the purposes served by them. He explained that the two rocks usually used locally were limestone and gritstone and how the sizes and shapes of the fields which the walls enclosed reflected the history of the settlements and changing agricultural practices around them. These involved, for example, the very small fields of early times, the strip farming of medieval times and the changes brought about by the Enclosure Acts. He went on to describe in detail the many different styles of wall construction and their specific uses. For example, as well as defining boundaries, they could be used to surround dangerous mine shafts, to shelter farm animals, to construct pin folds to hold stray animals and by their very nature they provide homes for small mammals and birds as well as supporting a vast range of moss and lichens, some of which are very rare. The talk held the interest of the audience and will, hopefully, encourage members to pay more attention to the these features which figure so strongly in the local landscape. Club Chairman proposed a vote of thanks to the speaker. The Club meets on Tuesdays at the Edgefold Club at 10am for coffee and biscuits before the weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presentation. Visitors are welcome to come to a â&#x20AC;&#x153;taster visitâ&#x20AC;? at any of the meetings.

2015 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; will they fall further? Eve Lake, a conveyancing expert at Bakewell solicitors, Taylor&Emmet LLP, said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;So far, 2016 has been busier than last year, certainly in terms of the number of transactions we have completed. Although the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposals are expected to double the affordable housing budget, they will surely force some buy to let investors out of the market. This may have an impact on the property ladder, as it is often landlords who step onto the bottom rung in areas like the Peak District, that first time buyers struggle to afford.â&#x20AC;?

listed building (in a conservation area and a national park) was always going to require patience and perseverance. Delays beyond the control of the charity caused costs to nearly double to £325k. Facilities like kitchens, central heating, bathrooms and showers, modern electrics and plumbing were installed and combined with rediscovered 17th-century features like oak panelling, stone fireplaces, gabled ceilings and beams. But court cases to regain rooms let for storage, and to have stolen oak floorboards replaced, took more time and money. The project was three-quarters complete when the builder went into liquidation, because other customers defaulted. While coping with these problems Tony was also responsible for All Saints’ Church, along with a fellow churchwarden, for an 18 month interregnum between vicars. Good times did return. Later than planned the building was finished, carefully selected residents moved in, 2007, a loan was repaid and the final fundraising was completed. An unexpected highlight for Tony and the trustees was the receipt of a number of awards for the restoration, including one from the Prince of Wales. Tony, the architect and clerk attended a London ceremony for a personal presentation by Prince Charles. “The main achievement is that a significant local building was saved and the charity could again provide housing for some locals in need, the purpose for which it was set up in 1602,” was Tony’s parting comment.

HOW CAN I STOP EMOTIONAL EATING? angry, lonely, stressed or bored—you get stuck in a damaging cycle where the real feeling or problem is never addressed. Unfortunately, emotional eating doesn’t solve emotional problems - it usually makes you feel worse. Afterwards the original emotional issue remains, and you also feel guilty for overeating. Learning to recognise your own emotional eating triggers is the first step to breaking free from food cravings, and changing unhealthy habits. Firstly ask yourself if your hunger is physical or emotional? If you have eaten recently and don't have a rumbling stomach, you're probably not really hungry. Physical and emotional hunger feel different. To stop emotional eating, it helps to recognise when you're emotionally hungry versus being physically hungry. Some emotional eaters do not allow themselves to get physically hungry and often don't wait for their bodies or stomachs to signal meal times. Try to focus on feeling comfortably full at mealtimes. If you feel hungry in between meals identify if it is really physical hunger. Use a hunger score with 1 feeling starving, weak and dizzy and 10 being so full you feel sick. Aim to eat a main meal at around 4 (being a little hungry), and finish around 6 (feeling pleasantly full). Cravings can pass quickly, try distracting yourself giving it time to pass, try having a

Hunger Level Sensations and Symptoms 1 Starving, weak, dizzy 2 Very hungry, grumpy, low energy lots of stomach growling 3 Pretty hungry, stomach is growling a little 4 Starting to feel a little hungry 5 Satisfied, neither hungry or full 6 A little full, pleasantly full 7 A little uncomfortable 8 Feeling stuffed 9 Very uncomfortable, stomach distended and hurts 10 So full you feel sick relaxing bath, go for a walk, find a hobby, read or call a friend. Cleaning your teeth, drinking green or peppermint tea can also stop the desire for snacks. Keeping a record of what, how much and when you eat and how hungry you are using the hunger/fullness score can help you to identify patterns emerging that reveal the connection between mood and food. This may help you to identify specific emotions that cause you to comfort eat. Take away temptation don't keep supplies of comfort foods in your home if they're hard for you to resist. If you are feeling emotional when shopping use a strict list and don’t go when hungry. Try to ensure you get enough sleep, if you're constantly tired, you might snack to try to give yourself an energy boost, aim to have a regular bedtime. Ensure you are sufficiently hydrated – we often confuse thirst with hunger. Depriving yourself completely rarely works and can increase cravings,

especially in response to emotions. Plan a treat every now and then and enjoy it – don’t eat it mindlessly and don’t allow yourself to feel guilty, we are human, not machines and the odd treat in moderation will do no harm. Accept that changing habits is not easy and lapses are normal, learn from experience, focus and give yourself credit on positive achievements and start afresh. Comfort eating involves using food to help you deal with how you are feeling. If you learn to identify what emotion you are feeling there may be other things you could do to help you deal with your feelings in a healthier manner, such as yoga, relaxation and exercise. Although these tips may seem difficult at first, they can eventually become habit and with practice and time, you can overcome your cravings. Remember that food can never solve an emotional problem and think “If I eat when I’m upset, I will only end up with two problems; the issue that made me upset originally and the guilt I feel about comfort eating, so do I want to have one problem or two?

BASLOW PANTOMIME - A CRAZY RIDE WITH MASTER TOAD, CATCH IT IF YOU CAN!

As promised, an unusual pantomime had its first night in front of Bakewell Brownies and a handful of adults on Tuesday 23rd February. On that performance (5 more still to go) all stunts went according to plan! Unfortunately, the real live dog had to be replaced with a soft toy as the living breathing one broke its leg (not joking, but not

PAVIORS UNDER 14s 22– MATLOCK UNDER 14s 24

Last year had brought a crushing defeat 83-7. This would be an indication of how far the Matlock boys had progressed. There was an early breakthrough for Paviors who immediately caught Matlock cold. Matlock were soon down 12-0. However, Matlock have

come a long way in the last 12 months and had a lot to contribute yet. Matlock forwards started to dominate the set pieces, this despite a massive weight disadvantage in the scrums. Brandon Harrison was awesome in both defence and attack and thoroughly deserved his Man of the

PEAKLAND LIVELIHOODS Cheese Making Time

Match award. Brandon, along with Adam Harrison, Tom Christian, Ned Tatler, Will Needham, Harry Stevenson and Olly Moloney, were clearly winning most of the rucks and scrummaging was made to look easy. George Bowen put in another Captain’s performance in making the super large Paviors pack look very ordinary when bringing them to the ground in heavy tackles. These set pieces ensured Matlock were able to win the ball for Callum Massey to distribute out to our Fly Half, Jack Gothard. Jack was also having a great game bossing the plays so that Matlock backs were able to demonstrate their flair. Sam Ball was again solid at inside centre and his direct runs were causing Paviors all sorts of problems. Sam was able to deliver good ball to Danny McRea and, in turn, he and Harry Wyld worked well together in moving the ball ever more closer to the Paviors try line. George Adlington, on the opposite wing also offered a good option in switching play. At half time, the match was poised for an exciting second half. The start of the second

D W Tours

half, Paviors gained momentum and Matlock soon found themselves 1712 down. With the introduction of Alfie Stockel, Danny Cruise and Tom Spibey, Matlock gained some momentum. However, Paviors had 6 subs and were able to win some good ball. With the score at 22-17, with just moments to go, the whole Matlock team worked hard to deliver the ball to our backs and see Danny McRea run in an excellent try. Jack Gothard converted and shortly after the full time whistle went for a deserved 24-22 win to Matlock.

£1000 RAISED FOR BRITISH HEART FOUNDATION The Matlock and District British Heart Foundation Committee held their annual coffee morning last Saturday at Dale Road Methodist Church Hall. Over 100 people attended so the cake stall, tombola stall and more sold out very quickly. The committee would like to thank all who came or gave donations as the sum of £1000 has been raised. This will help with education, research and the purchase of life saving equipment.

being away all day with a load of cheese in the cart and coming back without selling any. I believe the highest price offered was 4d. per lb.’ Polluting the Manifold William Gilman of Sheen has been credited with establishing England’s first purpose-built cheese factory at Longford in 1870. Others followed at Reapsmoor, Woodeaves, Grangemill, Glutton Bridge, Hartington and Gratton. Some 10 years ago one of our readers recalled: ‘I am 90 years old and I have great memories. Every Saturday morning I went down to the [Gratton] factory with 6 old pence and was given enough bits of cheese to feed 6 of us for a week. They also kept pigs to feed on the whey. Gipsies used to come and collect whey to drink ...’ Ecton cheese factory occupied the site of an old ore smelter above an adit connected to abandoned copper workings. Following complaints that factory waste was polluting the Manifold river, a pump was installed to discharge the whey below ground into the Clarion Mine. Explorers who visited the ‘whey’ level in the 1940s reported a ‘peculiar smell and whitish stickiness underfoot.’ One after another of our

CHILDREN TAKE A GLOBAL VIEW AT YOULGRAVE SCHOOL Lively and colourful dragons heralded the Chinese New Year at Youlgrave All Saints’ Primary School in February. As part of their multi-cultural education, the children took part in Chinese themed activities in their mixed-age House Groups and thoroughly enjoyed dressing up and creating some wonderful creatures. Bradford House was judged to have made the best dragon, which was paraded around the church at the

enjoy. This was also a non-uniform day where pupils and staff came to school dressed up in oriental attire and also enjoyed a specially themed Chinese lunch prepared by the school's enthusiastic cooks. In another show of creativity, there is currently a wonderful, home-made igloo in Class One to accompany the school topic of 'Our Frozen Earth'. The igloo has been built from plastic milk bottles (which will of course be recycled). It’s proving to be a popular reading corner for the children who have been learning about climate change, our threatened creatures and some of the people who live in the hostile climates of the Arctic and the Antarctic. They should now all know which one has penguins! Youlgrave’s sporting success continued this

term with a win in the inter-schools Benchball Sports Stars Challenge at the Arc Leisure Centre in Matlock; and in the athletics event held at Lady Manners School, achieved first place in the small school category and third place overall. Mrs Trainor, who coaches the children during their PE lessons, not only gets them to try their best with competitive spirit, but also insists on impeccable sportsmanship. Hopefully with the onset of Spring more outdoor events can be planned; after-school football led by Chesterfield Football Club, maypole dancing and High-fives netball are already taking place.

President of Matlock Rotary Club, Peter Kidd, awards £1,000.00 to Chris Boitoult of the Riding for the Disabled Association at Tansley Just before Christmas, 2015, Matlock Rotary Club organised a collection at Matlock Sainsbury’s, for the Tansley based “Riding for the Disabled Association” (RDA – charity no.1074106), which provides riding facilities for young people and adults with disabilities, from a wide catchment area of mid-Derbyshire. The collection was very successful, with the good folks of Matlock giving £860 before or after shopping at Matlock Sainsbury’s. This amount was raised to £1,000.00 after gift aid was included, and was presented to the RDA on Sunday 31.1.16. The monies raised will help the riding club meet its costs and the major part of the collection will go towards buying a new saddle for a new pony (yet to be resourced) at the riding school. President of the Rotary Club of Matlock, Peter Kidd, said “We are pleased to be

able to help a local charity, such as the RDA, at Tansley. It is brilliant seeing how the riding school helps give confidence to people with disabilities through riding and interacting with the horses and ponies.” Marie Davey and Chris Boitoult, from the RDA at Tansley, thanked the Rotary Club of Matlock for their donation of £1,000.00, at the visit to the RDA by the Rotary Club President.

Bakewell Brownies did their part at raising money and awareness for Epilepsy for Action on Tuesday 9th February. The action group asked different groups of people to create a Doodle, this in turn raised money towards their charity. There were celebrities’ doodles that people could bid for or you could just hold your own “Doodle Day” or event. Our Brownies, 24 girls, were asked to answer a general knowledge quiz about Epilepsy in small groups and complete a large paper sheet of Doodling, creating lots of pictures and shapes and colourful images. See picture with the girls and their large Doodle. The

evening raised £24.00 which will be used to help children and young people with Epilepsy. Bakewell Brownies try to support a different charity or organisation several times a year, to teach the girls the importance of giving of their time and support to help others. We have also supported the Shoebox Appeal, the Ashbourne Animal Rescue centre and the Derbyshire Air Ambulance scheme. If you are interested in helping with Bakewell Brownies or you can help with another Girl Guiding Unit in the local area, please contact Heidi – District Commissioner 01629 810369. Thank you.

A Poem for Easter Together With a True Story The Derbyshire Peaks and Dales were once famed for lead mining and are still renowned for the mining of Blue John, one of the most unique and decorative minerals in the world. But in the nearby towns of Mansfield, Barnsley, Wakefield and many others throughout Nottinghamshire and South Yorkshire entire communities depended for their livelihoods upon the mining of coal. Many years before Mrs Thatcher brought an end to coal mining as it was then, as a young boy I was taken almost every Easter to stay with my Great Aunt Ethel who was the district nurse living in the small village of Stanley near Wakefield, one such area depending heavily on coal mining. My aunt was my grandfather’s sister, one of three, Muriel an ex school teacher had died and Elsie had emigrated to Australia. There was also my grandad’s brother Clarence in the clutch. In short, my Great Aunt Ethel was my father’s cousin and although a spinster had been responsible for bringing many children into this world, as nurse and midwife she was greatly loved and respected by the people of Stanley, and all her remaining family. I remember aunt Ethel’s cottage clearly, the bed I slept in seemed huge and was feather filled, it was overlooked by a very daunting picture of Jesus wearing the crown of thorns. My aunt had always prepared great banquets of food, wonderful salads followed by jelly, blancmange and trifle, all served on a grand Victorian mahogany table dressed with linen. She was always first to rise to prepare breakfast to the sound of her old valve radio. (Did it always play Easter Bonnet?) Of course I ate far too many Easter eggs and there was Church, standing at the top of the hill with its pealing bells calling. Next door, to the back of aunt Ethel’s cottage was a tiny smallholding, just a few chickens and maybe a pig. I remembered two young girls waiting for their dad to come home from a nearby pit, and his return black with coal dust and wearing pit helmet and knee pads strapped around his baggy trousers. Apart from Church, Easter had its routines, dad treated me to visit ‘the picture house’ just over the Aberford Road and next day we all crammed into the old Standard car which was affectionately named Ethel after our great aunt, and complete with picnic we would set off on our annual trip to the village of Mickley near Ripon where my great grandparents brought up Ethel and co. We always visited the pretty Church yard where amongst the snowdrops and primroses it seemed my entire family line of Calverleys and Crabtrees rested. All of these distant memories remained deep within me until they stirred and inspired me to write the following poem for Easter sometime in the late 1980s. STANLEY CHURCH AT EASTERTIDE (nr WAKEFIELD) Dad were ‘auled up blackened shaft, Scrubbed and slicked for Easter Mass. We were trussed in brand new suits, And Ma wore bonnet trimmed wi’ fruits. Ah’l non forget ‘ow proud we strolled To Stanley Church up Aberford Road. Old Jack, on t’organ, fair played a treat, And 21st Psalm were ‘is masterpiece. Mr Savage an’ nurse were there, Colliery boss-cumWakefield Mayor, And all manner o’ folk I knew. Parson ‘ad retired to Mickley, And new ‘un ‘ad just arrived. They reckoned he’d come from Otley And this were ‘is testing time. I thought he were good ‘cos he picked hymns I knew, And his sermons went right well. He passed his life to Stanley Church that day Though non could tell. Jack played us out to a better world, “Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed”. We all were given a gold edged card And a cross of flattened reed. It were ‘66 when t’pit were

closed, Dad had died in ‘62 Savage were taken soon after Nurse, Old Jack ‘ad passed on too. It were ‘85, an’ year Ma died I were back in Stanley at Eastertide. Footnote: After Great Aunt Ethel had died and my dad arranged for her wishes to be fulfilled with her interment in Mickley Church yard with her parents and many of the family line, we returned to the Derbyshire village of Edale where our future Eastertides were to be spent for at least the forseeable years ahead. Many of Ethel’s furnishings including her feather bed and grand table served to refurnish our Edale home. Mum gave the picture of Jesus to St Oswald’s Church in Sheffield - I wonder if they’ve still got it? Easter in Edale was a wonderful time with lambing season and new life appearing from everywhere like a mass resurrection but I never forgot those early Easters in Stanley and those things that inspired my poem, which I would like to dedicate to my Great Aunt Ethel with love and thanks. Without her we would not have known of our family name linking us back to the infamous Sir Walter Calverley who was pressed to death in York Castle for his sins on 5th August 1605, or our family poet Charles Stuart Calverley C1831 who became a Victorian poet of some note. Further back in time the family were of Scottish descent belonging to the Clan Fraser. All this via Great Aunt Ethel.com. PS. Sometime in the 90s whilst motoring up the M1 I saw a sign to Stanley - I paid a quick visit, ‘the picture house’ had become a carpet warehouse; the smallholding behind aunt Ethel’s cottage had become a small housing development. But Mr Savage’s house, the Church and Great Aunt Ethel’s cottage seemed much the same from the outside. I did think about knocking on the door of the cottage and introducing myself but decided I would rather keep it in my mind exactly as it was all those Easters ago. Whilst visiting Stanley I noticed a new marina had been built adjacent to the River Calder. I called in and soon found myself chatting to an elderly man in the boat yard - as it turned out (to coin a midwifery term) my Great Aunt Ethel delivered him into this world around Easter time some seventy years or so earlier. Happy Easter!

The squad, including three local girls from Lady Manners School, Asia Law and sister Kiah and Niamh Dyas, have qualified for the waterpolo national league, after winning four out of five matches, in the play offs. This is a massive achievement as some of our players are only 11 years old. This is the starting point of their dreams coming true, to play for team GB/Olympics. The downside is the huge cost involved in playing in the

national league and the kit required. Due to this, many players are struggling to find this money and we don’t want to lose any squad members due to lack of funding. My wish is to help fund and support this developing squad. If you or anybody you know can help by sponsorship or donations, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Here we are again promoting yet another one of our fantastic members, Bronwen Adlington, and how she has had such great success here at Woodlands Fitness Centre – Rowsley. Bronwen, 18yrs, has always led an active lifestyle, competing in netball, rounders and cross country. At the age of 15yrs Bronwen started using fitness equipment at home, e.g exercise ball, light weight set. Then at the age of 16yrs, after recovering from a painful lower back injury which she still has to be mindful of when training, decided she wanted to join a gym and became one of the Woodlands gang. Bronwen chose Woodlands Fitness Centre, stating ‘it has better

woodlands shoulders. Not bad for someone who only weighs over a third less than that. Bronwen loves the mental challenge and physical aspects and the

Exquisite Swimwear Exclusive Lingerie Seductive Nightwear equipment, geared towards more training focused/ serious gym goers’. Autumn 2015, Bronwen started focusing on power lifting style training. Social media played a large part in this desire to train. Bronwen currently can deep squat with 105kg across her

need to constantly improve herself. Bronwen has always had a healthy, balanced diet. With her training in mind and the need to maintain, she wants to follow an eating regime called IIFYM – If it fits your macros. This simply is a system of calorie intake broken down into Carbs, Protein and Fats.

High Tor Players show off Their ‘Table Manners’

Local Cinema Film Friday BROOKLYN 11th March

Cast members at rehearsal – using dinner party props. This is the Royal Horticultural Society’s theme for the In Bloom competition for 2016; the Darley Dale committee are already planning to increase their efforts across the town with the aim of achieving that elusive Gold Award in the regional judging session to be held in July. To gain further financial support, two major fundraising events are planned for March and April 2016. On 16th March, Adrian Fidler (of Fidler Taylor auctioneers) has kindly committed his time to auctioning a wide array of interesting items at The Grouse Inn, Darley Dale. The doors will open at 7pm with the auction commencing at 8pm. A list of the auction items will be available at The Grouse one week before and is currently on our website at www.darleydaleinbloom.co.

uk If you can’t make it on the evening, sealed bids for items may be left at the pub. The 4th Annual Darley Dale Fun Dog Show is to be held at the Whitworth Centre, Station Road, Darley Dale on 2nd April with registration at noon and first class at 1pm. This year, there will be 8 fun classes held (prizes for 1st – 3rd): •Dog with Waggiest Tail •Best handler under 10 •Best handler under 15 •Best Handler over 15 •The dog the Judge would most like to take home •Best puppy (under 1yr) •Best 6 legs (4 dog, 2 handler) •Best Veteran The event will be supported by Peak Performers Dog Sports who will host a flyball team demonstration in addition to Have-A-Go flyball runs with a prize for the fastest dog of

the day. Furthermore, there will be an arena for Have-A-Go Agility – an opportunity to “walk the plank” or to race through a tunnel! At approximately the mid-point of the show, the spectators will be treated to a demonstration by guide dogs in their important work in support of the blind community. Bring your four-legged friend for a great, fun afternoon out! There will also be the opportunity to visit an array of stalls selling pet-related products, crafts, Fair Trade goods, plants and even to get some independent financial advice (important with the changes to pension systems). For further details on this, and our many other activities, please see www.darleydaleinbloom.co. uk

The High Tor Players’ next production is the comedy ‘Table Manners’ by the popular playwright Alan Ayckbourn. The play is due for performances at Youlgrave on Thursday 7th April, Ashover on Friday the 8th April and Wirksworth on Saturday 9th April all at 7.30pm. Table Manners is part of the trilogy of the Norman Conquests which originally

had an extended and highly successful run on the London stage starring Tom Conti, Felicity Kendal, Michael Gambon and Penelope Keith. ‘Under the experienced direction of High Tor’s director Liz McKenzie we are assured of a polished and entertaining evening’, said Chair Jane Small. This continues a highly successful revival of the

group that celebrates its 80th anniversary in 2017. ‘The recent successes and the new members attracted mean we can now stage a greater variety of productions and we are looking to include Darley Dale in our November ‘tour’’ said secretary Simon Brister.

Bakewell CE Infant School enjoyed dressing up as their favourite book characters for Book Week on Wednesday 2nd March.

During the week, the children had a visit from the author Caryl Hart who shared some of her wonderful stories with all

the children. The school also visited the local library in Bakewell, made their own books and shared their favourite stories.

BOOK COMPETITION WINNERS

The lucky winners drawn out of the hat in our recent book competition were Mrs H. Cooper from Bakewell

who won a copy of The Buffer Girls; Peter Twyford from Matlock, Mrs D. V. Yeoman, Buxton and John

Smith from Walton, Chesterfield win a copy of Bygone Industries of the Peak.

At last week’s wellattended AGM of the Bakewell and District Historical Society, Chair, Jan Stetka, reported on an active and financially successful year for the Society and the Old House Museum. Society membership remains fairly constant; we have lost some members and gained others. Jan reported the recent deaths of several valued members, but we have been pleased to welcome new members and hope they will become involved in our various activities. Our two main outings this year will be to see the Richard III Exhibition, in Leicester and The Portland Collection at Welbeck Abbey. Jan proposed five Society projects for the coming years: the on-going work with the Viking Age crosses and 13th-century grave slabs at Bakewell

Church, clearing and maintaining the motte and bailey at Castle Hill, continuing to provide the Arkwright Walk from the museum to Ashford Weir, investigating the use of smartphone QR codes on our self-guided Bakewell Trails and keeping a watchful eye on Bath House. Are you interested in taking part in any of these projects or would you like more information about them? Jan Stetka ( 01629 83727) would be delighted to hear from you. The Old House Museum opens for the 2016 season on 25th March with an Easter Tea-Party to which all are invited. We plan a busy programme of group visits and events this year, with activities for all ages. Information on our website: www.oldhousemuseum.org .uk or call Anita on 01629 813642.

From seats, benches and picnic tables to planters and our children’s range, our outdoor furniture made from recycled plastic waste looks great in any garden or in more demanding environments.

RESEARCH UK OPENS NEW TWO FASCINATING TALKS CANCER CHARITY SHOP IN BAKEWELL Page 34 – Peak Advertiser 14th March 2016

For the two meetings of the Bakewell and District Probus Club held in February the talks were on very different topics. Firstly, club member Peter Stubbs talked about crime and punishment in England. He explained that, in a criminal prosecution, the most important document a defendant receives is the indictment, which is a concise statement of his alleged crime. This has been the practice in England since the 11th century. However, how indictments have been resolved has developed over time. Originally the methods used bore no relation to the facts

Ken Watson and Derek Bateson of the case or the evidence. Later, trial by jury came into use but there was no right of legal representation until 1866 and it was not until 1898 that the defendant himself was permitted to give evidence. In 1800 there were over 200 offences that carried the death penalty. By the mid-19th century capital offences were limited to murder and treason. The death penalty was abolished for murder in 1969 and for treason in 1998. At the second meeting of the month, club member Ken Watson introduced a guest speaker, naturalist and wildlife photographer Derek Bateson, who talked

about the smaller and often unnoticed creatures and plants to be found in Gillfield Wood, a stretch of woodland on the outskirts of Sheffield. In just three years of study he recorded a massive number of sightings of different species; many of them being newly discovered in the area. To accompany his talk, he showed a series of spectacular close-up photographs of his findings. Further details of the club and its activities can be found on its website at www.bakewellprobus.org and from the Hon. Secretary Ron Marshall on 01433 639177.

The Mayor of Bakewell and a local businessman who lost his mum to cancer were the special guests to officially open Cancer Research UK’s brand new charity shop in the town centre on Thursday 3 March. Cllr Helen Froggart joined Duncan Stokes, Proprietor of Hassop Station, to cut the ribbon and welcome the first customers through the door, many of whom had been queuing up eagerly outside. Duncan, a 42-year-old dad of two, knows only too well how important the shop is to funding life-saving research, as he lost his mum, Margaret Stokes, to breast cancer almost 10 years ago. Margaret ran a gift shop and was well known in the Bakewell community. She was first diagnosed with breast cancer in her early 50s and was successfully treated. But unfortunately her cancer later came back and after a long battle it sadly took her, aged 61. Just a few years after losing his mum, Duncan took over the old Hassop Station. After an extensive renovation, he reopened it in 2010 as a café, bookshop and bike hire, taking advantage of its location on the Monsal Trail. It has now become one of the area’s most popular visitor attractions, with over 200,000 visitors a year. Since its opening, Duncan has hosted and supported a number of fundraising events in support of Cancer Research UK at Hassop Station. He explained: “Like us, so many families have been affected by cancer, taking away the chance to share memories, share successes, share futures. Research is the only way we can change this and that’s why I support Cancer Research UK.

volunteer for us and donate stock for our shelves. And for anyone who is looking to do a Spring clean, what better way to donate unwanted items as well as picking up a bargain at the same time. “We had a fantastic first day of trading with some very positive feedback from customers. They really liked how spacious and bright the

Assistant Shop Manager, Heather Stewards, with special guests, Cllr Helen Froggart and Duncan Stokes, who officially opened Cancer Research UK’s new Bakewell shop “I was so proud to be part of the celebrations marking the opening of this new Cancer Research UK shop. It reminded me of the time I spent in my mum’s shop growing up. Now it is a great comfort to me knowing that the items for sale in here have all been donated for a reason, with someone in mind, and that the money they help raise will be going to the charity’s work to help beat cancer sooner.” Duncan was also leading the way by being one of the first to bring in bags of clothes and accessories from home to donate to the new shop. Located right in the centre of Bakewell on Matlock Street, the new shop is the latest addition to the charity’s portfolio of 586 shops. It has bright lighting, wooden hangers, colourful lampshades and exciting window displays giving it an upmarket, contemporary feel. Customers will find highend brands at affordable prices in a great retail environment. As well as providing a great shopping experience, the shop will also inform, engage and inspire supporters with information

about the charity’s research successes and sharing real life cancer stories, subtly placed around the clothing rails, shelves and walls. Open seven days a week, it will stock both women’s, men’s and children’s fashion and accessories, along with bric-a-brac, books, CDs and DVDs, gifts, greeting cards and toys. Jamila Khalfan, Cancer Research UK Retail Area Manager, said: “We are so grateful to Duncan and the Mayor for joining us at the opening and sharing the memory of his mum, which really brings home the importance of raising funds to support the charity’s ground-breaking work. “At Cancer Research UK we are aware that in today’s climate, although shoppers want to keep up with fashion, they need to keep to a budget too, and our fabulous new shop will enable people to do exactly that. Looking like any other high street retail outlet, shoppers will be pleasantly surprised when they come inside. They won’t believe they’re in a charity shop. “As well as being a popular tourist destination, Bakewell has a vibrant and thriving community, who we hope will shop with us,

shop is inside, and that we had lots and lots of amazing and beautiful items for sale.“ The shop, at 6 Matlock Street, is also looking for volunteers to help sort donations, keep the shelves stocked and help on the shop floor. Flexible hours are available and anyone interested is invited to call into the shop to find out more, or ring 01629 815162.

GREAT SNOWS AND GREAT FROSTS

Everyone has a favourite season and many of us consider the Peak District to be at its most beautiful under a bright layer of snow. Two or three hundred years ago, English winters were often extreme, with Great Snows, Great Frosts and subsequent floods recorded in parish registers around the Peak. Detailed entries reflect the hardship inflicted on everyday life, as in this unusually descriptive account from Youlgrave parish registers: ‘1614/15. January 16 began the greatest snow which ever fell uppon the earth, within man’s memorye. It covered the earth fyve quarters deep upon the playne, And for heaps or drifts of snow, they were very deep; so that passengers, both horse and foot, passed over gates, hedges and walls. It fell at ten severall tymes and the last was the greatest, to the greate admiration and feare of all the land, for it came from the foure parts of the world, so that all entryes were full, yea, the southe pte as well as these mountaynes. It continued by daily encreasing untill the 12th day of March (without the sight of any

earth eyther uppon hilles or valleyes) uppon which day (being the Lorde’s Day) it began to decrease; and so by little and little consumed and wasted away ... except one uppon Kinder Scout, which lay till Witson week and after. There also fell ten lesse snows in Aprill, some a foote deep, some lesse, but none continued long. Upon May day, in the morning, instead of fetching flowers, the youthes brought in flakes of snow which lay above a foot deep upon the moores and mountayns.’ A public curiosity Darley Dale registers tell of a Great Frost that held its grip from early November 1676 until January. The subsequent thaw caused huge problems. The iced-up River Derwent, which couldn’t even cope with a heavy storm without bursting its banks, battering bridges and claiming lives, now flooded the valley. Huge sheets of ice were washed right up to St Helen’s churchyard in Darley. To travel in wintertime risked extreme discomfort, and deaths from exposure were frequent.

caught in a blizzard with neither visible track nor landmark. The High Peak inevitably suffered the worst of severe weather. Large herds of Peak Forest deer perished in the winter of 1634/1635, while human loss of life included Thomas Hatterslye of Lady Bower who died in ‘the great snow’. The macabre sequel to a double fatality came to light in the 1690s, when the bodies of a grazier and his servant girl were discovered on Win Hill, where they had died from exposure after setting off on a journey in the winter of 1674. Perfectly preserved by the peaty soil, their bodies were treated as a public curiosity for some years until finally given a decent burial in Hope churchyard. A journal entry of 1726 describes 13th December as ‘such an ill day for frost, snow and wind, that several people had like to have perished in coming over the moors from Woodhead, and some lost their lives in going from Sheffield to Heithersedge.’ Bewildered in his way A dramatic reference of 1680 occurs on a memorial to rector Michael Adams in Brassington church. Translated from the Latin

Elijah’. Winter travel seems to have been an occupational hazard for clergymen. In 1725 Parson Baines, schoolmaster of Dronfield, perished on Froggatt Moor during a journey to Grindleford Bridge. Fifteen years later, following a severe winter when lads played football on the frozen Derwent, three Yorkshire rectors were overcome by April snowstorms while travelling home from the funeral of a colleague at Eyam. Only one man was still alive when found by a shepherd at daylight. Tradition has it that the incident is commemorated in a row of three cairns on Gardom’s Edge, known as The Three Men. The worst of our weather often falls in early February. In February 1692 Elizabeth Trout of Eyam lost her life on the snow-covered heights of Sir William. In the same month of 1701 John Bowden of Bamford perished on Tideswell Moor and in 1743 Stephen Broomhead froze to death on Eyam Moor. In February 1772 John Alcock, blacksmith, and Richard Boham, baker, perished on their way back to Monyash from

Boham on Kenslow. Their friends were greatly blamed for not having searched sooner. On 1 February 1804 George Sheldon, keeper of Tideswell House of Correction, was returning from Peak Forest over the open moors when, according to the epitaph

was badly hit during the infamous winters of the early 1900s. As a reminder of just how low temperatures can drop in the Peak, here we show an old-time snowy Buxton and Derbyshire ducks chilling out on last year’s ice. Julie Bunting

The staff and children at Bakewell Nursery School are celebrating an ‘Outstanding Double!’ after notching up top marks in every area in their recent Ofsted Inspection – just as they did in their last one in 2011/2012! Mrs Teale, Head of the Nursery and a fully qualified teacher, along with her Ofsted-praised team are passionate about the care and education of their children who are aged from 3 months to 5 years old. Mrs Teale said, “We are absolutely delighted! To have received the highest possible grading in every category is wonderful and to do this twice is a truly remarkable achievement!’’ Ofsted found: ‘Sharply focused, high-quality planning enables all children to make excellent progress in relation to their starting points.’ The Inspector also discovered that the Nursery really does live up to its logo - ‘Learning is fun!’ – commenting: ‘Staff working directly with children are strongly supported to ensure children have fun as they learn and make as much progress as they possibly can.

LOCAL SOLDIER’S PLAN TO RUN 196 MILES IN 48 HOURS FOR THE ARMY BENEVOLENT FUND

On the 15th March 2016, 26 soldiers from C Squadron, The Royal Lancers will run from St Bees in the east of England to Robin Hood’s Bay in the west. The route which they will be using is the Wainwrights’ Trail, adding up to a total of 196 miles. Amongst those taking part is Cpl Jonathan Watkinson originally from Matlock and LCpl Simon Goodwin from Buxton. Both soldiers have served numerous tours in Afghanistan whilst also serving in Canada,

Kenya, Cyprus, Germany and Malta. Now based out of Catterick Garrison, the soldiers came up with the idea to run the Wainwrights trail for charity earlier this year. The run will also enable junior commanders to step into the roles of their seniors. If anyone is interested in donating to this worthy cause please visit their just giving page. www.justgiving.com/CSQN RLANCERS/

PLEASE PRESENT THIS VOUCHER There is something surreal about The Roaches. This rugged ridge of weatherworn gritstone shaped by nature and patterned with erosion forms the base of the Pennine chain, the backbone of England, with Hen Cloud like a coccyx stuck on the end. My walk for this issue was to circumnavigate Hen Cloud. It was not an epic marathon but a somewhat short circuit packed with interest, panoramic views and a bit of boggy ground for good measure. Having parked in a roadside bay as advised by signs I followed the road past Paddock Farm, home

Away to my right a panoramic landscape stretched as far as I could see. On a clear day it is said the mountains of north Wales are visible on the distant horizon. At times the road was narrow and hollowed away into the side of the hill so I kept well under as this is a regular route used by visitors heading to walk, cycle and climb around the Staffordshire Moorlands. Nowadays recreation may well be the main purpose for anyone heading through the little hamlet of Upper Hulme but surprisingly this remote settlement has long been an important place for

Walking around the ford in Back Brook which is a tributary of the River Churnet, I headed up between cottages on a track to discover Dains Mill about a quarter of a mile upstream. It has been restored and contains a waterwheel which can be seen behind railings in one of the buildings. Beyond the mill the path became a little more challenging as I continued for a while beside the brook heading upstream from a silted up mill pond. Bog is an important ecological part of this area, providing a habitat for marsh growing plants and a breeding ground for insects

to ascend and descend the steep inclines through Upper Hulme and Crowdicote beyond Longnor and due to this difficult challenge, the Court of Quarter Sessions allowed 10 horses for a wagon and 5 for a cart with wheels of 6 inches in breadth. Built into the side of the Roaches is Rockhall, a gothic style former shooting lodge that in 1993 became a shelter used by the British Mountaineering Club. Popular with school and outdoor activity providers, I could see several groups dotted about, all wearing protective gear and hard

of the popular Roaches Tearoom on my way down to Upper Hulme. Through a band of trees on my left I could see Hen Cloud rising up to 1350 feet in a range of sheer bastions of towering rock. As with the nearby Roaches, these cliffs are popular with climbers who have named some of their conquests such as Arete, the Great Chimney and Hedgehog. Hen Cloud is derived from the old English name Henge Clud meaning steep rock, whereas The Roaches is thought to originate from the French word Roche meaning rock or cliff. A colony of jackdaw were choosing nesting sites amongst the many crags and crevices, chattering and squabbling over the best perches. In recent years this site has also been home to roosting peregrine falcons that are becoming quite common in the Peak District. Evidently these birds of prey like our rocky escarpments, quarries and even Derby Cathedral tower to make their homes.

employment and industry. A mill is recorded on Back Brook in the 1220s, established by Dieulacres Abbey with permission from the Earl of Chester. In the late 1560s Thomas Gent of Upper Hulme built a mill upstream of Hulme Mill, which in 1599 caused a complaint from its owners that Gent was taking its water. By 1610 Gents Mill was tenanted by Robert Deane and became known as Deans or Dains Mill, but it became redundant and disused in 1946. By 1831 Hulme Mill had become a four storey silk mill with a house and workers’ cottages, evidence of which can still clearly be seen. Later in the 19th century the mill was used for spinning flax and dyeing textiles. In 1869 William Tatton opened a dyeworks here but from 1924 the works also wound rayon and filament yarn before moving premises in 1970. Roaches Engineering Limited was established on the mill site in 1974 manufacturing machinery used in textile testing and cheese making.

but unfortunately I took quite a bit home with me on my boots and lower legs! Leaving the bumbling brook I turned left to follow a gated footpath and part of the drive to Well Farm which brought me up to an elevated natural pass between the escarpments. The A53 Buxton to Leek road now follows in part the route of a Roman Road. However before the late 18th century when this was turnpiked, the main route used by wheeled vehicles heading from Leek was through Abbey Green, Middle Hulme and Upper Hulme, passing between this gap and on to Flash. Along the way the rough track would have passed a scattered settlement of coal mines east of The Roaches. This route is also known to have been used to transport chert from mines at Hassop and Bakewell to the Staffordshire potteries, where it was used in the production of fine bone china. On the return journeys the wagons brought crates of pottery and farm produce for Sheffield. These primitive horse drawn vehicles had

hats. The Roaches provide a playground for those wanting to pursue bouldering, climbing and abseiling. Instructors were shouting out words of encouragement that reverberated around the rocks whilst down beside the road a string of minibuses and small coaches were parked up waiting to take them all home again. Before I headed for home there was just one more thing I wanted to do – rather strangely my boots seemed to have programmed themselves to march back down the road to the tearooms, where I supped a pot of tea in leisurely contemplation whilst drinking in the glorious views over Tittesworth Reservoir in the distance.
