PEAKLAND LIVELIHOODS Bone Milling and Dung Processing

Memories are fast fading of the once regular rounds of the rag-and-bone men – and the younger generation may well ask why anyone would want to buy tatty rags and smelly bones. The answer is that the former were recycled for papermaking and the latter for glue, gelatine, fertiliser and pottery manufacture. In 1799 Josiah Spode founded the Minton works at Stoke on Trent, using bone ash for his ‘natural soft paste porcelain – i.e. bone china. Animal bones have been used for land improvement for hundreds of years and demand grew alongside the agricultural revolution. Bones, and the bony cores of ox-horn, were crushed between iron wheels or

rollers at water-powered grinding mills. Sometimes the bones were first boiled in cauldrons to extract the grease, making the bone manure less attractive to vermin, birds and insects. Tanyards were a good source of raw bone and horn. More unusually, Sheffield knife-handle makers sold their horn trimmings direct to local farmers, as did horn and bone button manufacturers. Farey notes that ‘several Ship Loads of the Bones, collected in London (some from the churchyards as I have heard) find their way to the interior of Derbyshire annually and are there ground by mills.’ He lists nine bone mills in the county, including one at Ashford with iron water

wheels powered by the Wye, and another described as ‘the slag mill rollers’ in the Via Gellia, Bonsall Dale. The Ashford mill later became a sawmill, while that in Bonsall Dale was taken over by Cromford Garnetters. Longnor corn mill on the Manifold was enlarged post-1831 to allow for the additional activity of bone crushing, which continued after corn milling ended around 1870. A lead smelting mill at Lumsdale near Matlock was replaced by a bone mill, grinding calcined or burnt bones for fertiliser and for use in pottery manufacture. During the late 19th/early 20th century, James Frost operated as a bone crusher at Bakewell Field in Sheldon. A slightly later reference connects to a knacker’s yard and bone mill between Middleton by Wirksworth and Brassington, on a site eventually developed by Magnesium Electron. Soap suds and scavengers Bone manure was considered particularly good for turnip crops – bettered only, apparently, by privy soil, i.e. human waste. The practice of adding small quantities of lime to privies to absorb the stench was observed

at Peak Forest and elsewhere. This was considered rather less satisfactory than adding earth, which produced a drier manure ready for spreading. Privy soils were sometimes combined with ‘town dung’ to produce an effective manure on fallow land, also incorporating soap suds and ‘other produce of the sewers’. Some towns had a communal dung-hole for dung, weeds etc. Improved versions were kept well wetted to produce liquid manure, seeping down to the bottom of the smelly heap for extraction as needed.

YORKSHIRE CRAFT SHOW Highfields School in Matlock took a group of art textiles GCSE and A level students to The Knitting & Stitching Show in Harrogate International Centre last week. The multi craft show covers not just knitting and stitching but also feltmaking, shibori dyeing, jewellery-making, cardmaking and mixed media. Students were very inspired by the work on show by a range of artists and practitioners, and could see what is possible beyond the classroom. Highfields head of art, Kerry Fairbank, said, “Enabling our students to see what’s possible in art and textiles at craft shows like this is very rewarding. Our students really benefited from speaking to art college graduates. It was a fantastic opportunity for them to see for themselves how you can be creative and make a living from art and textiles.”

N

Highfields has a tradition of encouraging textile skills amongst its art students, offering it as a separate GCSE from art, and also as an A level. Former textile A level student James Weir who

left Highfields about five years ago is now successfully employed at a top tailor’s in Savile Row, London. It’s good to know that textiles skills are thriving here in Matlock, given its

CHRISTMAS TREE

RECYCLING IN THE DALES

Until the end of January Derbyshire Dales District Council is helping local people recycle their real Christmas trees. All residents have to do is place the tree at the edge of their property on their usual green/recycling day collection and the tree will be composted along with other garden materials. Any tree over 5ft in length must be broken/sawn down to a manageable size, with decorations and plant pots removed. Alternatively, trees can be taken to the nearest household waste recycling centre. Plain Christmas cards and wrapping paper can be included in residents’ kerbside cardboard and paper recycling to be collected by the District Council’s contractor Serco. Foil-backed cards and paper should not be included, but placed in general household waste grey bins or black sacks. Derbyshire Dales residents can use the online postcode search at www.derbyshiredales.gov.uk /collectioncalendar to check on their collection cycle, where they can also download and view their 2016 collection calendar. •Anyone without online access who needs assistance can call the District Council’s Waste Helpline on 01629 761122.

RED HOUSE STABLES SANTA CARRIAGE RIDES

Once again, the Red House Stables provided their own “Santa Specials” on 13th December at the Whitworth Park. The owner, Caroline Dale-Leech MBE, has been giving children - and parents alike - special trips around the park on her horse-drawn carriages for several years now and 2015 was no exception! She freely gave of her time, supported by Father Christmas and his two elves, to ensure that a good time was had by all, with each youngster being given a small present and a packet of sweets at the end of their ride. The historic carriage has been carefully restored and maintained to give an extremely traditional feel to

touring the Whitworth Park; even the horses had their own festive bells and earmuffs to enter into the spirit of Christmas! The residents of Darley Dale and surrounding area gave generously for the rides with takings in excess of £250! The proceeds will

be used to support the Darley Dale in Bloom campaign for a Gold Award in 2016. Many thanks are due to Caroline, Santa Claus and his two wonderful elves for giving the children such entertaining rides around our wonderful park.

CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME

For the past few weeks the children of Matlock Bath Preschool Playgroup have been collecting food with the help of some generous parents, family and friends! The collection will be taken to the Jigsaw Food Bank in Matlock. Sarah Stephenson, Playgroup Manager, explained why they had organised the collection. “At this time of year people are rushing around buying presents for family and friends, and we felt that it was important to show the children how their actions can help others less fortunate than themselves. A big thank you to all of those who donated”. For more information on Matlock Bath Preschool, including

LET RAINBOWS BENEFIT FROM SANTA’S MISTAKES IN MATLOCK

Did you receive presents you weren’t expecting this Christmas? Not sure what to do with the soaps from Aunty Margaret or the oversized jumper from your brother? The Rainbows shop in Matlock is offering people a guilt-free way to have a clear out while helping the East Midlands’ only children’s hospice. By giving unwanted gifts to Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People’s shop, in Firs Parade, people will be helping to fund the

specialist care the hospice provides to more than 360 children and young people across the East Midlands, including those from Derbyshire. Rainbows also supports over 300 bereaved families and more than 600 siblings. Karen Bilsby, head of retail for Rainbows shops, said: “Every year, we’re grateful for people’s unwanted gifts. People often feel guilty about not liking a gift or hanging on to something they just know

they won’t use. You may not love the new jumper which is three sizes too big but there will be someone out there for whom it’s the perfect fit. You may not love the florescent scarf and glove set from granny, but someone else might have been looking for one for months. People often receive gifts that may be the wrong size, are duplicates or just not to their taste. “Donating presents to Rainbows helps you make space in your cupboards, and

BOOK ONLINE

FOR PEAK DISTRICT RANGER EVENTS

It has never been easier to work off the festive excess by exploring the Peak District National Park with the people who know it best. Booking is now available online for events with National Park rangers, aimed at helping more people to enjoy the special landscape and improve their fitness. The 2016 schedule starts on 17 January with Business As Usual, a 5-mile guided walk in picturesque Monsal Dale. This is followed on 24 January by two contrasting events. The first is an intermediate navigation walk at Dove Stone, giving people who have already completed the beginner course the chance to hone their skills using a compass and route card. Or enjoy spectacular views on Northern Exposure, an 8-mile winter walk along Kinder Scout’s northern edges. The programme also provides the opportunity for groups to book personalised events, including aircraft wreck walks, bat experience evenings, mountain bike skills and orienteering. Ranger Andy Farmer said: “It’s a big step forward for us to be able to offer online bookings and we hope it will persuade more people to join us. Our rangers have a wealth of knowledge about their patch and are always keen to share their stories and encourage people to enjoy the countryside. “We have organised a varied programme to start the new year and the walks should appeal to people who are new to the area, want to visit somewhere different, need fresh air and exercise, or want to learn more about a place they love.’’ To make a booking, or find out more about the events coming up, go to www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/eve nts. Bookings can also be made by phone on 01629 816 200 (Mon-Fri) and 01629 816 572 or 01629 813 227 (SatSun). The money raised from tickets is used to help maintain paths and trails in the Peak District National Park. Email customer. service@peakdistrict.gov.uk to discuss the options for bespoke events.

TENTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FARMING LIFE CENTRE 2015 saw the tenth anniversary of The Farming Life Centre and what a year it has been. April saw the appointment of two new workers; Jane Butler a Rural Health Development worker supported by Macmillan and Mary McNaught an admin support worker. Jane has made great strides throughout the year to introduce an out reach service for farmers and families affected by cancer or other life limiting conditions. She has promoted the service regularly visiting Bakewell Market and a series of summer agricultural shows. June saw us attend a super event for Open Farm Sunday at Tagg Lane Grange farm at Monyash. The Centre was set up to provide a meeting place for the local rural community in the wake of the foot and mouth outbreak. One of their enduringly popular groups is the Rural Social Group who meet on Wednesday afternoons for a variety of activities throughout the year. This includes monthly talks, trips out and a lunch club. They along with many other Derbyshire residents have been involved in the production of an amazing piece of artwork entitled Stitching the Wars, Textile artist and poets ‘Arthur and Martha’ visited the group before creating a textile quilt and including words shared from the group. The group were particularly pleased in October when we were delighted to be graced by a visit from HRH Prince of Wales. Prince Charles visited the centre before visiting a summit at Chatsworth. During his visit he took plenty of time to discuss current agricultural issues with all generations of Peak District farmers, who he fears face a difficult future.

Prince Charles supports the Centre through his charity the Princes Countryside Fund especially the Centre’s business development

After enjoying the festivities of Christmas and New Year, January is the main month of the year when people think about losing weight. Most people gain around 5 pounds over the Christmas period. Here are a few tips to help you lose weight and, more importantly keep it off for good. Firstly – don’t be tempted to put yourself on a strict “diet�, the main problem with following a “diet� is that most people only see this as a short term fix, finding they are able to follow a plan for a while, but soon find it difficult to sustain and old habits creep back. Studies show that around 97% of people who lose weight through following a diet plan regain the weight, with some ending up regaining more weight than they lost while following the diet plan. Making small sustainable changes to your diet and lifestyle that can be kept up for the rest of your life will not only mean that you lose weight – but will also help you to maintain your weight loss. Try snacking on vegetables, having smaller portions and moving around more – these changes all add up over the long term. Ensure you eat 3

“Diets Don’t Work!�

balanced meals a day, keep hydrated and don’t skip breakfast. Planning is key to success – most of us live busy lives and find ourselves hungry, and then can make poor food choices such as high fat or sugary foods - knowing what we will eat and what to buy helps to avoid this happening. Try not to have tempting snacks such as chocolate and crisps at home – few people can have these foods around without eating them. Why not make a simple

vegetable soup with onions, leeks, celery and garlic – this will provide bulk with few calories, help draw excess fluid from your body and leave you feeling less bloated. When laying out your main meal, fill half your plate with vegetables or salad, a fist size portion of carbohydrates - ideally wholegrain such as brown rice or pasta, and a palm size portion of lean protein such as fish or skinless chicken. Try to avoid or cut back on alcohol – it is full of empty calories and has no

nutritional value. Slow down the pace of eating – it takes 20 minutes for your brain to receive a message from your stomach that you are full – if you eat quickly this is easily overridden. Place cutlery down between mouthfuls, have a drink and chew slowly, appreciating the flavours and textures of the food. Help to beat sugar cravings by drinking green or peppermint tea, have sugar free mints or chewing gum – cleaning your teeth is also a proven technique to beat cravings.

Weigh yourself once a week, and always do it first thing in the morning. Weighing yourself several times a week, or even every day, can make you lose motivation, as failure to see progress often leads to a feeling that the changes you are making are not working. Be realistic - do include some treats – completely depriving yourself will only make you miserable and lead to cravings. Most importantly we are human and occasionally give into temptation – if you lapse and eat something you had not planned to don’t allow yourself to feel guilty – this is a negative emotion and can lead into a cycle of comfort eating. Get yourself back on track and remember it’s all a matter of moderation and balance. Nicola Rose DipCH BSc (Hons) RNutr is a fully Registered Nutritionist and Clinical Hypnotherapist. She works for a specialist NHS weight management service and also runs a private weight management/ hypnotherapy practice.

Looking to challenge yourself for your New Year's Resolution? Well why not # ChallengeDerbyshire! Ashgate Hospicecare, Blythe House Hospice and Helen's Trust joined together last December to raise much needed funds to support patients with life-limiting illnesses across North Derbyshire. This year, the three charities are asking local people to get involved by setting themselves a challenge for their New Year’s Resolution. Not only is this an opportunity to start 2016 on a high, but it’s also a great way to raise money and support three local charities at the same time! Heidi Hawkins, Chief Executive at Helen’s Trust, set herself the challenge to lose 41 pounds throughout 2015. Heidi has since gone on to lose a phenomenal 5 stone! She says, “I really wanted to get behind the whole concept of Challenge Derbyshire so when I turned 41, I knew it was time to do something about my weight

Heidi before and after she lost 5 stone with #ChallengeDerbyshire and my health. From the age of about 14, I’ve yo-yo dieted my entire adult life. So I decided to challenge myself to lose 41 pounds in weight, setting my fundraising target at £150 so each charity would receive £50.

“Very often things surprise you, and the thing that spurred me on to succeed the most this year was a donation which I received from former neighbours. We used to say hello and exchange pleasantries, but we weren’t

friends although we did have each other on Facebook. They don’t even live in North Derbyshire but they donated ÂŁ20 on my fundraising page when I shared it on Facebook on the very first day. That really humbled me and I was determined to not let them down. So I lost 41 pounds and I’ve kept on going ever since. 2015 is almost over and in total I’ve lost 5 stone in weight and have raised ÂŁ187.50! “I’m sharing my story in the hope that I can inspire people to join Challenge Derbyshire in 2016! The most important thing is to challenge yourself with something very personal to you – it will really make you strive to succeed.â€?

Fabric & Furnishing solutions

A Very Busy Time The Rotary Club of Bakewell have been very busy during Christmas 2015 providing Santa in the Pudding Shop on the 28th and 29th November, lighting up Bath Gardens with the Tree of Light on the 8th December. On the 12th and 19th December we had Santa’s sleigh for the children and

chocolates were given out to children and parents. We also had a good collection at the last Farmers Market on the 19th December. A big thank you from Rotary to all who donated. All the proceeds will be given by Rotary to local schools and organisations.

NEWHOLME HOSPITAL’S HEARTFELT

THANK YOU

Riverside elderly care ward at Newholme Hospital, Bakewell, has been overwhelmed with kindness and support during the festive season from so many groups and individuals in the local community. Staff and families of patients on the ward, which provides specialist mental health assessment for older people, were so moved they wanted to say a big thank you to the community. Many of the ward’s patients experience dementia, and celebrations such as Christmas and New Year offer opportunities for patients to feel more connected to the world

around them. Occupational therapist Lorraine Turner, who has worked on Riverside ward for many years, said: “Once again Riverside ward has been overwhelmed by the generosity and community spirit of people in the local community at this busiest time of the year.” A special thank you to Great Hucklow Women’s Institute who, for over 25 years, has made donations of gifts for local older people. Riverside Ward has been fortunate to be the recipients of wonderfully wrapped gifts, from the WI, for the past 10 years. “The gifts are so wonderfully

decorated and bring such delight to our patients on Christmas morning,” added Lorraine. For patients with declining mental health the festive season can help to rekindle interest in their

surroundings and create a sense of belonging at a time when they are finding it harder to connect with the world. “Christmas time offers openings for reminiscence and helps our patients to

feel they belong again. It is very important to us to support positive dementia care and creating dementiafriendly communities. It is heartening to have so much goodwill and help from the local community.”

Backyard privy Town dung consisted largely of horse and other animal droppings, swept off the streets by town scavengers and sold by the cart-load or by weight to local farmers; in 1808 the price at Ashbourne and Matlock Bath was seven shillings (35p) a ton. Most farmers recycled the output from their own livestock, often using ‘yard dung’ collection points of their own design. On large farms, the soakage from cattle stalls and dung yards was often left to drain into storage tanks. The farmyard dung heap is still good farming practice while other rural methods of fertiliser production have passed into history, taking with them the bone crushers, town scavengers, privy soil collectors, rag-and-bone men and, thankfully, communal dung-holes.

SEASON OF ARAB FILMS TO BE SCREENED IN DARLEY DALE The Arab Spring erupted in Tunisia in December 2011; protests and social unrest spread throughout the Arab world. Within a few months long established rulers had been forced from power in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Yemen. Since then Islamist zealots have launched terrorist attacks across the world and hundreds of innocent men, women and children have been killed or injured as a result. Most of us cannot grasp the motives of those who are prepared to kill and maim innocent people. We especially find it difficult to imagine how ordinary people manage to

Features appearances from Julie Walters and Jim Broadbent.

coerced into becoming an informer for them. Omar will be screened on Thursday 14 January. Where Do We Go Now? Explores the relationship between Christian and Muslim men. These men have lived peaceably together in a remote Lebanese village for many years. Their peaceful co-existence is put under strain by news of violence in the outside world. As the men square up for battle, the women conspire to maintain a fragile peace. Splendid story-telling and vibrant performances from the director Nadine Labaki, one of the few female directors working in Arab cinema. Where Do We Go Now? Will be screened on Thursday 11 February. Wajdja is the first film to be made entirely in Saudi Arabia by a female director (Haifaa Al Mansoor). It tells the story of Wajdja a tenyear-old girl who wants to buy a bicycle so that she can race against the ten-year-old boy who lives next door. Her mother refuses to buy her one as young Saudi girls do not ride bicycles. Wajdja does not see the logic in this and decides to raise the money for the bicycle herself. Wajdja will be screened on Thursday 10 March. All films are subtitled and will be shown at 7.45pm at the Methodist Hall, Darley Dale. Refreshments available from 7pm. Tickets cost £4.00.

orienteers were surprised by short sharp frost. A chilly start (-1ºC), with the Recreation Ground very muddy in places and extremely muddy with icy puddles in others! Seven courses were on offer, planned according to age from junior to the curiously named ultra-vet course. A promising field of over 130 turned out. Queen Elizabeth Grammar School had given permission for use of the school grounds so some competitors from Parkside Primary and QEGS may have had a slight advantage. There was also a good number of Ashbourne Rugby club players who were taking part in a totally different sport for the first time.

BIRDS OF A FEATHER, FLOCK TOGETHER Although it was just the gentlest breeze the windchill was sadistic, transforming my camera into a vice that froze my fingers rigid in a pitiless, sickening pain. Nevertheless, I would stick it out. This time I'd have pictures. Responding to a tip-off I had driven to a site near Cavendish Mill - actually a mineral works - distinctly signposted off the A623 between Wardlow and Stoney Middleton. By the right of the lane approaching the works was a line of stationary vehicles. Parking my van in a safe location I sheepishly followed a couple of folk into an unassuming field. One of whom cradled a camera with a lens as big as a road cone. This must be it! The field was draped across a moderate slope, providing an elevated view of a large verdant swamp above which circled about a dozen common birds a hundred yards to the east. From the

Expand Your Horizons at MARQUIS SOUTH YORKSHIRE top of the slope on the western flank soon darkness would prevail. It was 3.30pm on Saturday 30th November 2013. The sunset was spectacular. There wasn't a soul in sight who didn't gape at its inescapable charm. Especially myself. But, beneath the billowing

embers of its crimson shield something began to stir. Just above the horizon from south of south-west streamed ribbons of small black birds. Like leaves in a hurricane they beat overhead to a single, undeflected destination. Flock after flock deftly combined with those few that had first been circling so that, in the time it will take to read these words their strength had swelled from a lonely dozen to an astronomical one hundred and fifty thousand! One of the greatest shows of the avian kingdom was about to thrill its guests. In an astonishing aeronautical display the huge pulsating gyroscope of flaps and feathers and chirrups danced and spun and twirled! Round and round and up and down and to and fro they flew, painting patterns on twilight's diminishing canvas the size of tenement blocks. Shifting shapes of mermaids, dragons and Mexican waves appeared then vanished as heavenly visions drawn by a myriad of synchronised wings. And, what is even more amazing is that no two birds collided.

Then, as swift as it occurred the show abruptly ended with the formation of a magnificent tornado. The very moment that its tail made contact with the ground it was as if the earth sucked up the birds like a gigantic vacuum cleaner. Jostling for position amongst the tall reeds there they would roost for the night. This strange phenomenon, which barely lasted fifteen minutes, is called a murmuration the spontaneous congregation of masses of starlings, many of which would have flown a distance of up to twenty-five miles. According to local ornithologists the afternoon matinee will be repeated under favourable conditions throughout the whole of winter. If you are intending to visit then please remember to park your vehicle sensibly. Do not obstruct the passage of quarry traffic. NB: This field is now strictly out-of-bounds to the public.

THE OLD STATION GALLERY Laine Tomkinson

MUSEUM MODEL ENGINEERING COMES TO AUCTION

A very unusual collection is being brought to auction in Sheffield Auction Gallery’s live internet Specialist Collectable Toys & Models Auction on Thursday 4th February 2016. A labour of love, skill, and devotion is how one family member described the engineered model collection of Sam Gregory. Two models alone took Sam over 10 years to build to the highest quality. The first, a 2” scale live steam double crank compound Showman’s road locomotive by J Fowler of Leeds alone took seven years to complete. Working evenings and weekends in his garden shed the model was built in the 1980s starting with a £500 set of rough castings that Sam lathed, milled and shaped into a model named 'Princess'. The quality of the finish and the level of detail on this model including working lights is 'fantastic and

despite being nearly 30 years old it still shines like the day it was completed' commented Sheffield Auction Gallery’s Specialist Valuer, John Morgan. Next was a 3 year project to build a 2” live steam model of a Clayton Steam Lorry, measuring over 5 feet, once completed. Both these items ended up on permanent display at the Glossop Heritage Museum. A Glossop man, Sam's

early working life was as a toolmaker before switching to Glossop quarry where he spent the rest of his working life and perhaps led to one of his more interesting models, a large scale model of a Ruston Bucyrus 22 RB front loading shovel. Standing over 20” high and over 24” long and finished in the famous cream over crimson colours of Ruston Bucyrus, the model represents the

loader Sam drove at work. What made the model even more remarkable is that unable to source any scaled down plans Sam got hold of a set of original Ruston Bucyrus plans in the early 1990s and scaled down every drawing himself. Sam only built a dozen or so models in his lifetime including 2 Glossop trams, stationary steam engines, a 3.5” gauge live steam Great Northern Atlantic as well as the items already mentioned. With estimates ranging from £100 to £3,000 it is an opportunity not to be missed. The collection is to be auctioned at Sheffield Auction Gallery on 4th February and entries for this auction are invited, for further information please contact the Auctioneers on 0114 281 6161 or jmorgan@ sheffieldauctiongallery.com www.sheffieldauctiongallery. com

WINSTER’S FIRST CHRISTMAS TREE FESTIVAL

Saint John’s Church, Winster held their first Christmas tree festival, Christmas 2015.

EXTEND THE SEASON OF GOODWILL After the Christmas celebrations, it’s a conundrum every year about what to do with any unwanted festive gifts or duplicated items. Most of us will have been lucky enough to receive presents we love, however there is always that one gift; the jumper that didn’t fit, the bestselling book you already had or the old juicer which can now be replaced with a shiny new model. Rather than throwing them out or leaving unwanted Christmas presents to gather dust at the back of the wardrobe, Age UK is urging people to have a clear out and donate any unwanted gifts to their local Age UK shop and see in the New Year clutterfree! Found at Bakewell the Age UK Bakewell shop accepts donations of both new and second-hand items, all of which are then sold on to be loved again, helping to raise vital funds for the Charity’s work supporting older people. Graham Barnett, Shop Manager at the Age UK shop in Bakewell said; “It can be difficult knowing what to do with gifts that will never be used, however by donating unwanted Christmas presents or old items to our shop, people will be helping a great

cause. Not only could they be another person’s treasure, your donations will also help us brighten up 2016 for an older person and that’s why we are urging everyone in the area to have a clear out and get rid of any items they don’t fancy holding onto – they will really help us kick off the New Year and raise vital funds.” The money raised through Age UK’s shops goes towards supporting the Charity’s vital work for older people, delivering hands-on local services through the Age UK network such as lunch clubs and home safety checks, as well as hugely important work like Age UK’s free advice line (open 365 days a year) and vital campaigning work. Age UK has over 420 shops across the UK, which are reliant on the kind donations of the local community to keep the shelves stocked and supported by a team of dedicated staff and volunteers. The shops accept unwanted goods such as clothing and accessories, gifts, toys, household items and shoes. Donations can be maximised by signing up to gift aid. By simply completing a basic form when you donate goods means that Age UK will

20% OFF 2016 stock during January

BEBRA DESIGNS Return to 1956 for the popular vintage style for wedding dresses in 2016. Tea length or shorter dresses are proving to be more and more popular. The full skirt can be either a full circular skirt with lots of net petticoats or a semicircle with less net but it’s the bodices which can vary vastly. From a simple strapless with a diamante belt to a full lace overlay with lace neckline and bracelet length sleeves. The possibilities are endless. There were so many versions of basically the same style. Award-winning designer, Betty, at Bebra Designs can create your dream dress whether it is vintage or modern, simple or extravagantly encrusted with diamante and crystals. The only limitation is your imagination. And the best part is you can have an exclusive gown for the same price as an off the peg gown. In 30 years Betty hasn’t created two dresses exactly the same as each bride is individual as should her dress be. But, if you cannot imagine your dream dress Bebra Designs stocks gowns by other designers which can be ordered in any size or bought off the peg and can be customised as required. Betty carries out all alterations free of charge on all bridal gowns over £300.

The winter sale is now in full swing with the majority of collections at half price or less. There is a brilliant £10 sale rail, scarves and accessories from only £5. N.Y.D.J. (Not Your Daughters Jeans) can be purchased from only £59. All sale underwear is half price. In the footwear department there are savings of at least 40%.

CHATSWORTH WEDDING FAIR 2016 20 & 21 FEBRUARY, 10AM - 3PM FREE ENTRY

Your perfect day CHATSWORTH WEDDING FAIR the Chatsworth way

Join us this winter for our annual Wedding Fair which promises to be bigger and better than ever. Enjoy a glass of fizz on arrival, meet the Chatsworth Wedding team and our award winning chefs, along with carefully selected wedding partners who will showcase their services. From designer wedding gowns, stunning flowers and exciting entertainers, there is something to inspire every aspect of your day.

The Chatsworth Wedding Fair, which has proven to be a popular choice amongst prospective Brides and Grooms, promises to be bigger and better than ever before,

with a wider selection of influential partners and suppliers exhibiting at one of the most romantic venues in the country. Kay Rotchford, Wedding and Event Manager for

Chatsworth, said: “We are extremely lucky to work with some really fantastic suppliers and Chatsworth provides the perfect setting for them to show just what they can do.

“The wedding fair is always a really exciting event and gives couples the opportunity to come along, meet the wedding team and chat through all their ideas for a perfect day.”

EAST LODGE AND CALLOW HALL East Lodge and Callow Hall have set themselves apart as both South and North Derbyshire and the Peak District’s highest rated hotels, restaurants and above all leading wedding venues. Both East Lodge and Callow Hall have created the ultimate dream wedding settings which can be “Exclusively Yours”on your dream day. The wedding team at these two country house estates have a selection of wedding packages to suit all tastes, all ideas and all budgets whilst maintaining the individuality you deserve for your special day. Every wedding at these multi award-winning hotels is arranged on a totally exclusive use basis, allowing a truly unique experience for just you, your family and your guests. The most important day of your life deserves a special setting, so simply imagine a location that really is just

yours and not shared with anyone else; a country house estate where the whole world revolves around you. Both hotels offer this unique opportunity to have your very own country house for the duration of your celebrations – there’s no sharing your wedding day with anyone else, like at most other venues. The luxurious bedrooms are designed with elegance and romance in mind, the award-winning food is simply superb, all locally sourced in Derbyshire’s Peak District and

home-grown wherever possible. The dedicated and hugely experienced wedding team understand the finite details required to make sure you feel special and relaxed for your big day – there’s no relying on a venue that promises you the world but has little or no experience in delivering your dream day. The wedding events team at Callow Hall and East Lodge have over 16 years of experience planning and hosting wedding celebrations

and special occasions; this has resulted in them winning awards for “Outstanding Customer Service” both regionally and at the national tourism finals, as well being shortlisted as regional finalists for “Wedding Venues of the Year” in the national wedding awards 2014 and 2015. You don’t even need to worry about separate wedding and reception venues because both Callow Hall and East Lodge have their own Civil Wedding Licences and you can even choose to marry outside in the beautiful wedding pavilions overlooking the landscaped water gardens at East Lodge or in the fabulous “Secret Garden” at Callow Hall. So don’t hesitate to call the East Lodge team on 01629 734474 or the Callow Hall team on 01335 300900 to arrange a time to visit.

the island, castleton, hope valley

Cat stone I first became aware of the problem of the changing of historic place names when I spoke to an older citizen of Carsington. We were talking about the rock in Carsington pastures, named on the Ordnance Survey map as Kings Chair. He called it Lady’s Chair. I looked up the tithe map for Carsington in the Matlock archives and found the rock to be also called Lady’s Chair on that map. Why and when the name change? Further searching showed on that tithe map that the ‘Brough Field’ as named in the

Gorse stone

Derbyshire Book of Place Names, is called Trough Field on the tithe map. A misleading reading of the cursive script T could lead to erroneous assumptions as to the possible location of Lutodorum. Surely Staneburgh (stone fort) is a more likely site, if names have any significance. Stanton Moor also seems to suffer from the misplacing of names, but there was no tithe on Stanton Moor, so no tithe map. Scotland has several Cat Stanes, a significant one

being near Edinburgh. The Cat has nothing to do with the furry pets or even wild versions but is derived from the Celtic which could mean enclosure or battle. The Irish Celts celebrated the feast of Samain in November when Cath Meige (the battle of the gods) took place. The Cat Stone on Stanton Moor and

the one on Gardoms, probably have the same meaning as the Scottish ones, whatever that is, and both are near to Bronze Age remains. According to two books in the Matlock archive, one of 1780 and the other 1820, the Cat Stone is ‘like a church tower, on the very

Inaccessible Pinnacle

Conservatories, orangeries and garden rooms Since 1981 SUPERB SERVICE SUPERB DESIGNS SUPERB WORKMANSHIP

Heart Stone or Tuppenny Bun edge of a declivity, at the end of a track (not footpath) and is the end one of three’. The middle stone or rock is the Gorse Stone, one of several in the Peak District, which names probably also are of Celtic origin and are associated with Gorseddau. The Gorseddau in the National Eisteddfod ceremonies are of more recent origin. The other stone ‘the end one of three is the Heart Stone, possibly also a Druid stone, and sometimes also called the Tuppenny Bun or Loaf’. There are several Druid stones in the Peak District and may be associated with Bronze Age exhumations or excarnations where the bodies of the deceased were left exposed on platforms to be defleshed by birds. Buck (bucca) stone,

Eagle (aigle) stone and even Andle (aigle or anvil) stone may have been used for the same purpose. Zoroastrians still practise Sky burials in India. They use high stone towers for the purpose. Further south still is the Inaccessible Pinnacle which is similar to that at Robin Hood’s Stride and both tops are difficult to access. Unfortunately, once the idea of the Gorse Stone with the mysterious EIN engraved on it looking like a cat was suggested in a relatively recent book, the error has been repeated in other literature about walking in the area. EIN is Hebrew for spring. There is a spring down below at the foot of the bank but there is nothing to indicate a connection. Rodney Hyde

WYE AND UPPER DERWENT GROUP OF THE DERBYSHIRE WILDLIFE TRUST

NEXT TALK

‘BADGERS IN THE PEAK DISTRICT’

Our next talk is about one of the most popular mammals in the UK, although recently it has run into great problems. The badger is an icon of the British countryside, one reason why its lovely humbug coloured head features on the logo of the Wildlife Trusts of Britain. It is a member of the Mustelid group of mammals and is a nocturnal, powerful, social animal. It lives most of its life underground in social groups in setts, and sadly the only time many people see them is at the side of the road as road-kills. However there could be far fewer badgers around soon. Recently badgers have hit the headlines nationally because the government has implemented a controversial badger culling policy as part of measures against the devastating impact of bovine tuberculosis (TB) in cattle. This disease is carried and transmitted by badgers and other wildlife, as well as cattle, and costs the UK cattle farming industry millions of pounds per year. This is particularly relevant to us, as the Derbyshire/Staffordshire border has been identified as a hotspot for bovine TB, so a cull could be carried out in Derbyshire. The problem with this is that the scientific evidence from a 10-year study area has shown that a cull does not work, as it only marginally reduces TB in the culled area, and actually

increases TB outside the culled area due to movement of disturbed badgers which have not been killed. So why is a cull taking place? As a response to this situation Derbyshire Wildlife Trust have initiated a 5-year programme of badger vaccinations, working with several partners including the local badger groups in the county. This programme is possible as an injectable badger vaccine is now available, but recently vaccinations in the Edale area have had to be suspended due to a worldwide shortage of vaccine. The programme will contribute to the local control of bovine TB by creating immunity in a population of Derbyshire badgers, but the vaccine alone is not the solution to bovine TB. However it does have an immediate effect. Of course another factor with the vaccination programme is cost, as this programme is unfunded and has only been able to run due to donations. So do come along to hear from someone who has been out there in the middle of the night vaccinating badgers! Debbie Bailey from the Derbyshire Wildlife Trust will be updating us on the situation with our local badgers and the vaccination programme on Monday 25th January 2016 at The Medway Centre, Bakewell at 7.30 pm. Admission is £2.50 and everyone is very welcome.

With no sign of an end to the constant barrage of storms and wet weather this winter, my walks of late have concentrated on finding a sound surface and as little mud as possible. Now that festive visitors from afar have returned home and children are back in school, the Monsal Trail is quiet again. On this particular mid week day it was positively deserted, probably also due to heavy and persistent rain. I decided to do the entire route from Blackwell Mill to Bakewell Station with the best option being to park in the town and to catch the TP bus to Blackwell Turn. The friendly driver was amazed that anyone would want to tackle the walk on such a horrible day, but I was dressed in waterproofs from head to toe, fired with enthusiasm and ready to face the elements. The bus ride through Ashford and up the Taddington bypass would have been scenic had I been able to see through the windows which were steamed up with condensation and splattered with raindrops. Having alighted from the dry bus to watch it disappear into the distance, heading for Buxton, I then had the challenge of crossing the main road so I could wander down the lane towards Blackwell. At this point of no return and with my car about 9 miles away, I did wonder if I was a little bit mad! The well signposted route down to Blackwell Mill was interesting to say the least, firstly following a track consisting mainly of giant puddles, but then came a steep descent on a former packhorse route that was treacherously slippery due to the extreme conditions so I went very slowly, each step carefully chosen and placed. It was a relief to reach the trail and be able to stride out on solid level ground. I positively whizzed past the towering buttress cliffs of soddened grey limestone, dashed through a couple of minor tunnels that were dripping and damp, whilst all the time listening to the roar of the Wye thundering through the deep narrow gorge alongside as it headed for the depths of Chee Dale, where no doubt the stepping stone path would be well submerged. The first long tunnel was a welcome respite from the rain, if a little chilly and damp, and I stopped for a while to scoff a sandwich I had packed as a rucksack snack. However the shelter was short-lived as I emerged and made my way to Millers Dale. There were no abseilers dangling down from the high bridge where the river was rocketing past in rapids far below. Millers Dale station was practically empty apart from a bedraggled quartet of fellow walkers looking equally exhilarated by their hike. Just like me they were rosy cheeked and draped in dripping waterproofs with wet faces lit up by cheery spirits. The next few miles passed in a flash, dipping in and out of tunnels as I marched along the old

emerged to grey gloom but surprisingly dryer than before as the rain had stopped, enabling me to finish my walk with a flourish. As I finally left the trail at the former Bakewell Station I marvelled at the skills of those engineers and navvies that laid the Midland Railway line back

At one point a little cluster of workmen were standing around a large hole fenced off by barriers, no doubt wondering if they had created a mini swimming pool. I had passed the halfway mark with relative ease but beyond the viaduct and Headstone tunnel my pace began to slow. Even the toughest waterproofs would have been put to the test by the conditions that day and although my inner core was basically dry, I was beginning to feel the chill of being wet through on the outside. Images of a warm and welcoming oasis just a couple of miles beyond began to dance through my mind. The thought of a pot of steaming hot tea at Hassop Station was as inviting as half a lager must have been for John Mills and Sylvia Sims after their Saharan trek in the old film Ice Cold in

I shook off as much excess water outside as I could before entering the bustling and busy haven of Hassop Station cafe,where the heavenly fragrance of hot homity pie and fresh baked scones wafted in waves around me. All around was a scene of chattering customers scoffing cakes or devouring plates full of scrumptious food. I should point out that another reason for this walk was to try and work off a few surplus pounds that had mysteriously crept up the scales over the Christmas period. Therefore it was positively cruel to join the queue by the side of the counter and display cabinets where pasties, pies, cakes and tray bakes pulled at my heart strings and begged to be rescued. But readers you will be surprised to hear that I somehow managed to ignore their pleadings and stuck to my guns, ordering just a pot of tea that tasted divine. Warm and refreshed I

The clouds were clearing a little as I made my way down Station Road which winds down the side of Castle Hill. Was that possibly a patch of blue sky I could see in the distance over Stanton Moor or did my eyes deceive me? Even on a miserable wet day like this had been, a wonderful walk in the Peak District had managed to lift my spirits and inspire me to write up the experience for my regular fortnightly blog.
