To The Peaks of Fame Praying Billy of Buxton
William Edge was as confirmed a drunkard as any man alive, yet went on to earn a respected nickname by turning his life around with the support of religious belief. He wrote of his dramatic conversion to Methodism in ‘Praying Billy – The Life Story and Conversion of William Edge’. This old booklet, kindly copied for us by a reader, was published as a ‘striking record of pardon for sin’ and a warning to young men ‘to flee from the public-house, gambling den, and ungodly championships’. ‘Billy’ Edge was born at Ladmanlow in 1865 to parents he described as ‘morally the best’. His grandmother Edge was a highly respected Methodist preacher around Wardlow. At the age of 13, Billy
started work as an errand boy for a Buxton grocer, eventually to be put in charge of the horse-drawn delivery van. But his sampling of the beer stocks was to lead him into the ‘evil passion’ of drunkenness. This was the cause of two accidents, the first when he lost control of the delivery horse and cost his master a lot of money, the second during an outing to Manchester when Billy was knocked down by a tram and trampled by the horses. Badly bruised and with part of a thumb missing, he needed a month off work – a month given over to constant heavy drinking. Around the age of 18, Billy and a younger workmate were sent soliciting grocery orders in Buxton. The pair stopped off
for so many ‘refreshments’ that they dared not return to work. Instead they caught a train to Manchester where, he admitted in later life, ‘we got very drunk and pawned our watches. I don’t remember very much more that day.’ After pawning further belongings, the pair wrote to a friend in Buxton asking for money. The younger lad’s father turned up to take him home, leaving Billy desperate enough to make his way to relatives near Levenshulme. Word got back to his mother, who arranged for him to be given the means to redeem his pawned goods and buy a ticket home. This left just enough change for another drinking bout before the late train back to Buxton, then home to bed before his parents could see the state he was in. No will power Billy found new employment in Leek but was soon to pawn his watch and some clothes to buy more beer. His mother begged him to come home and offered to set him up in his own bakery business. In return Billy agreed to ‘sign the pledge’, i.e. become teetotal. He rented a bakehouse at Burbage and trade was good until he broke his promise, becoming a quarrelsome nuisance in
local pubs. He did sober up just long enough to get married, although even this involved forging his fatherin-law’s signature as the bride was under age. Billy would later admit, ‘I signed the pledge again and again but it was of no use. I had no resolution and no will power. After being a master baker for about four years I became a bankrupt ... and was drunk every day.’ Then came his last big spree. A young man named Swann had inherited his father’s Buxton farm and, disinclined to hard work himself, sold off all the livestock and equipment. Billy Edge helped him to spend the £400 proceeds:

The High Sheriff of Derbyshire, David Coleman, was a VIP passenger aboard horse-drawn canal boat Birdswood as part of the Derwent Valley Mills Discovery Days programme on Saturday 1st November. Mr Coleman, who is one of canal restoration charity Friends of the Cromford Canal’s 800-plus members and who lives near the route of the canal, took a return trip from Cromford Wharf to Leawood Pump House on the 75-year-old heritage narrow boat pulled by 13-year-old Chelsea, a sturdy Dales x Shire mare. Returning to the busy Cromford wharfside where crowds were enjoying the fine weather and special family-friendly waterwaysrelated events organised by the FCC, the High Sheriff remarked on the smoothness of the boat ride. He then presented a commemorative brass narrow boat and boat-horse to Lance and Corinne Rose of Alderwasley-based working horse specialists Arraslea Shires, to mark a successful first season of horse-drawn canal cruises run in partnership with the FCC. The High Sheriff praised the success of Birdswood project in boosting visits to this ‘sleeping beauty’ canal,

noting that so far over 5,000 passengers have enjoyed the Birdswood experience in 2014 and that this new tourism venture was becoming an important asset for the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site, as well as helping to stimulate the local economy.

project a success in its first year of business. We will now build on this to give Derbyshire tourism a real boost in future years, and to enable many more people to enjoy the peace and quiet of a canal cruise

choir, in song and narration, under the direction of Lester Simpson, who for twenty years has famously been singing songs and telling stories about the First World War, both at home and abroad. The music will include Christmas carols, some of which were sung on the day of the truce; songs in German, French and Dutch will reflect the global nature of the conflict, while others will deal with eternal themes of loss, memory, longing, war and peace. The narrative has been created by choir member and professional writer Chris Thompson. It includes letters sent from the trenches describing the events of the day from the soldiers’ point of view, letters in turn funny, heart-rending and poignant. There are press accounts from the time, uncompromising statements from military top brass as well as extracts from the works of writers such as Vera Brittain and Michael Morpurgo. 2014 has seen a great number of events commemorating the centenary of the “war to end all wars” and RaiseYourVoices choir members wish to pay their own respects by remembering a day when briefly, the light of peace shone amidst the darkness of war. They hope it will be an evening to remember and will cap an eventful year for the choir, which recently appeared in the acclaimed BBC2 drama “Marvellous”, providing the soundtrack. The concert takes place in St Mary’s Church, Wirksworth on Monday December 8th at 7.30pm. Tickets are available at Traid Links, Market Place, Wirksworth from Saturday 8th November at a cost of £5.00. Any profits from the event will go to charity.

A SPORTING YEAR AT BRADWELL CE INFANT SCHOOL We began in the Autumn term with multi-sports provided by UK Sports Coaching. The children improved their teamwork and agility whilst having a great time outside. In the Spring term we used the school hall to try a new discipline called Street Dance, which was very energetic and the children loved it. In April we had a day of African dance and drumming which was very exciting. We performed our final dances to children from Bradwell Pre-School. In the Summer term we used the MUGA to good effect for a very hot and sunny Sports Day and a further series of sport lessons. We also held a World Cup Dance Day, in which we explored the music and traditional dance of Greece, USA and Brazil, before presenting our dances to our parents at the end of the day. We have enjoyed our usual family celebrations in St Barnabas Church for Harvest, Christmas, Easter and Sharing Bread. This term we introduced a new celebration. Saint Barnabas was noted for the many journeys he made to spread the message about Christianity. So we made a journey around Bradwell, stopping in six locations to sing with our friends and neighbours. Fortunately, the weather was fine and we had a lovely reception from our parents and members of the village community, followed by refreshments at school served by FOBS. Earlier in the year we developed our knowledge of the animal world when we visited the Butterfly House near Sheffield. We extended this recently by caring for caterpillars in the classrooms before releasing the mature butterflies in Bradwell Community Orchard. We also had an exciting day delivered by the History Van which explored life without electricity. The children found out about life in Victorian times and tried to complete various household tasks using muscle power. It was great fun and very hard work. The children decided life was easier and better now. This year has also seen the centenary of The Great War. The children took part in our customary remembrance activities in November, and thought about the people caught up in the conflict. In May we planted poppy seeds as part of the Poppy Centenary. When they flower they will help us to remember the sacrifices made in war.
Back to the theme of sport, and we are preparing to take part in an under-7’s festival of football at Derby County. We continue to enjoy our PE lessons and take part in races and games with enthusiasm and commitment. Let us hope this appetite for sport and exercise helps our children to keep fit and healthy, and stays with them for years to come.

BASLOW’S PRESSING NEED – Apple Day 2014
ÂŁ275
Councillor Mike Longden presented Baslow Community Orchard Chairman, David Dawson, with a new apple press bought with funds from the DCC Community Leadership Grant Scheme Baslow Community Orchard hosted a hugely successful Apple Day on October 18th. In opening the event, Councillor Mike Longden praised the community effort that had created a new orchard from scratch within just two years, with plans for further development. He was delighted to hand over a new apple press purchased with funds from the County Council Members Community Leadership scheme and which was in continuous use throughout the afternoon! A crowd of over 100 visitors were entertained with music from the ‘Baslow Belles’ and St Anne’s School singers and nourished with home made soup and a variety of produce from the school PTA and Baslow WI. The ‘highlight’ of the day was the children’s competition to produce paper rockets which were flying everywhere. Max Fischer of Fischer’s Restaurant, Baslow judged the baking competitions with his usual encouraging remarks and strict

Prescriptions are changing. Hannage Brook Medical Centre in Wirksworth, along with many other GP practices, are now issuing prescriptions electronically. In many cases your Doctor will no longer issue a green prescription form to your local Pharmacy for your repeat medication, instead the prescription is sent electronically to the Pharmacy of your choice. However, large online “internet Pharmacies� are taking advantage of this to hijack the process to the detriment of local Pharmacies by asking you to sign up with them, threatening the future of all the services currently provided locally. Wirksworth is the latest place to be targeted with leaflets by one of these internet giants. The leaflets give the impression they’ve been sent out officially by the NHS and even mention Hannage Brook Medical Centre by name (without the Doctor’s approval). “I am worried that this will have a big impact on our business and the services we provide,� said Nick Payne, the third generation of Pharmacists in his family to be running the Pharmacy in Wirksworth. “We provide a traditional pharmacy for the modern era in Wirksworth and this includes free delivery of prescriptions to all those in need, free support for patients both on newly prescribed and medicines and for those on long-term medication. We deliver not only to Wirksworth itself but to Cromford and all the outlying villages as well, free of charge, but we do rely on the income from dispensing repeat prescriptions to run the service, as the NHS does not fund Pharmacies to deliver prescriptions. We have a tremendous team of people who are committed to helping everyone in our community with their prescriptions. It’s my concern that older and more vulnerable patients in our community may inadvertently sign up for an internet Pharmacy not realising that the leaflet they’ve received is not from the NHS, not from their local Pharmacy and not approved by their local Doctors. Indeed we have had a number of patients who have returned the leaflets to us because they think we’ve issued them. If either you, or anyone you know, has been misled by one of these leaflets we can easily rectify the situation.�
impartiality – the entries for the children’s ‘Apple Creature’ were truly amazing. David Dawson, Chairman of the organising group, said, “This has been a tremendous event, only successful because of the effort of many individuals and groups in the village. It has had the feel of a village fete and I hope that, next year, it will be even bigger and better. A big thank you to all concerned.� The event was free, but donations given on the day will help to fund new fruit tree planting while takings
by the WI go to Ashgate Hospice, and those by Bakewell Scouts will help
them attend International Jamboree in Japan.

My Wonderful Life
WINSTER AND ELTON LUNCHEON CLUB WORKSHOPS
PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT
* * T T A A V V O O N YN AY PA P Members of the Winster and Elton Luncheon Club have recently been taking part in an exciting creative project called My Wonderful
Life. Over a series of three weeks they worked with an artist to make a book of their life. Using a traditional Japanese folding technique
and beautiful textured papers, the books were decorated with lino print borders. Inside, the books are filled with photographs
and text about key moments and some of the memorable events in each participant’s life. The workshop sessions were a lovely way for everyone to reminisce and share memories with each other while learning new skills to create a wonderful record of their family history. During 2015 the books will be displayed at the Derbyshire Record Office as part of the Made in Derbyshire campaign that will celebrate all that is “Made in Derbyshire”. The workshops were delivered by Junction Arts and funded by Derbyshire Dales District Council. For more information about the project, or how your group can work with Junction Arts contact the Junction Arts office by telephoning 01246 209219 or email info@junctionarts.org

Cheshire Cats, the comedy Baslow Players performed in June about six friends doing the Moonwalk, was a great success. The audience even stood up and took part in the aerobics session which was not expected. But certainly the script delivered an enjoyable and emotional rollercoaster, and as pledged, Baslow Players donated all profits to cancer related charities. £115.75 to Breast Cancer Care, £115.75 to Chesterfield Hospital Cancer Trust Breast Screening Fund and £55 to Walk the Walk, from the pink buckets in the hall. Baslow Pantomime The Gingerbread Man. 1014 February 2015 (halfterm). Our Gingerbread Man is another home-written script, another contemporary twist on a traditional tale; this time with LOTS of slapstick, Bake-Off and James Bond references. So safe to expect life-size biscuit, but the rest is a surprise! Surely something to tickle everyone’s fancy. Nightly performances at 7.30pm, and a Saturday matinee at 2.30pm. Oh, and a bar available on Friday and Saturday evenings. As a new venture, Saturday evening tickets will also include a meal. Tickets will be on sale from 1 December (handy sized presents to fit into Christmas card envelopes…). To avoid disappointment, please put these dates into your diary!

“Britain’s Shining Sword”. A brief history of the plane explained how, at the beginning of the war, Britain’s Air Force did not have a bomber which would meet the demands of the ever more sophisticated war in the air and it was not until 1941 that the first prototype of the Lancaster was born out of the unsuccessful Manchester Bomber, which was itself the last of a succession of attempts to solve the problem. John related the story
of the bomber set out, as it was, against a background of military and political arguments about the best tactics to be adopted and Harris’s belief that heavy bombing would obviate the need for an allied invasion of the continent. Although the practice of “Carpet Bombing” did not achieve this object the Lancaster nevertheless played a key role the eventual victory. The story of the bomber and its particular attributes and the defects
of the planes that preceded it were succinctly presented by John who skilfully drew upon his careful research. The audience was keenly interested in the topic, particularly because of Derbyshire’s close connections with the “Dambusters” and the Derwent Dams which played such an important role in this exploit. The Chairman, Jim Pocklington, proposed a vote of thanks from a very appreciative audience.

FAVELL SMITH & LAWSON SOLICITORS
It is amazing how different NAFAS demonstrators can combine similar flowers but achieve such different results. I suppose it can be likened to authors using words and musicians using notes. There is an endless supply of variations! Jane Borrowdale certainly added to this mix. Her theme of artists showed originality and her knowledge of the artists and quirky titbits kept us engaged. Did you know that a long time ago, sunflower stalks were used in lifejackets to give ballast? We had Van Gogh,
Gaugin, Monet and others. Just as the impressionists tried new approaches, so Jane showed us the latest ideas, especially with mechanics and leaf manipulation (not as tortuous as it sounds!) I especially enjoyed Jane’s attention to detail so that the general traits of each artist were fully incorporated and highlighted. Altogether an impressive and e n t e r t a i n i n g demonstration. Tickets are now on sale for our Christmas Open Meeting at the village hall,
Calver, on the 4th December at 7.45pm. Keith Smithies, a NAFAS National Demonstrator, will present ‘Christmas Past and Present’. If you have never had the opportunity to see a skilled National Demonstrator work with flowers, come and join us as I promise you will be delighted and enthralled. We always promise a warm welcome and a relaxed, entertaining evening. For tickets phone Christine on 01433 630161.

MATLOCK A-LEVEL STUDENT ACHIEVES BRITISH SCIENCE ASSOCIATION AWARD
Highfields School student Oliver Johnson, 17, from Matlock, recently completed a six week Nuffield Science Research Placement at the University of Leicester, and achieved a Gold CREST award from the British Association of Sciences for his work in fluid dynamics. He worked tirelessly, commuting four hours each day for six weeks of his summer holiday, to complete difficult and highly technical experiments in the Charles Wilson wind tunnel. Emeritus Professor of Engineering, J Paul Gostelow, was so pleased with Oliver’s work that he recommended him as an experimental aerodynamicist and highly commended his work at the university.

The British Heart Foundation shop in Matlock is appealing urgently for some local Heart Heroes to give their time each week and volunteer. The shop is always grateful to any volunteers who can give their time but it is currently in desperate need of people who would like an active hands-on role behind the scenes or anyone who enjoys talking to people and could assist customers. The shop raises lifesaving funds for the British Heart Foundation's pioneering research and patient care, but it simply cannot continue this work without more helping hands. Volunteers are at the heart of the British Heart Foundation and Shop Manager Chris says, “The shop has volunteers who enjoy volunteering so much they have been helping out

To The Peaks of Fame Praying Billy of Buxton
‘We drank naked whisky from six in the morning until eleven at night, taking care to have a good supply to drink during the night. Often we slept on stacks and in barns ... Soon all respect had gone, and we became a disgrace to the neighbourhood.’
His faith tested In his few lucid moments Billy was troubled to think how he was neglecting his wife and children. He lost count of the number of pledge cards he had signed. Finally, ‘Tired of drink and sin, and being very miserable, I determined one
Sunday night that I would see whether there was any help in religion.’ So Billy went in his poor, shabby clothes to the little Primitive Methodist Chapel at Ladmanlow and received a warm welcome. News of his latest conversion spread like wildfire, though nobody expected it to last. But he started to read the Bible and gave up drink, suffering the agonies of delirium tremens and shaking so badly that he was unable to shave
BAKEWELL AND DISTRICT CLUB FOR THE DISABLED The above held its Annual Harvest Festival on 7th October in the court room of Bakewell Town Hall. Around 25 members and helpers were welcomed by Vice-Chairman Diane Edwards. The service was conducted by Rev. Peter Davis. Members and friends donated an absolute mountain of harvest goods. After the service these goods were auctioned. Auctioneer was Dave Holton assisted by Rev. Davis and Club President Judith Twigg. It raised £75.50. The usual hard working Diane Edwards organised the raffle and winners were Mesdames M. Briddon, P. Orton, S. Bramall, D. Edwards, P. Hawley, M. Wheeldon, P. Haywood and A. Hodgson, Messrs L. Twigg, G. Lee, D. Holton, M.C. Jones, D. Stewart and Rev. Davis. The usual superb afternoon tea of every type of sandwich imaginable, delicious scones and jam and mouth watering cakes and buns along with endless cups of tea were greatly appreciated by all present. Everyone who provided this feast and waited on tables deserves special praise and thanks.

Martyn Bonham, a Flight Sergeant in the Buxton Air Cadets was warmly welcomed to the October meeting of the Soroptimists. He gave a detailed talk, and presentation of his exchange visit to China, where he met Chinese Air Cadets. Most large cities in China have designated roles. The area where Martyn met the cadets was at an airport with a huge range of high tech equipment. The students are brought up to study only school subjects which will be of value in later life. So pupils from other areas may be taught totally different subjects, to hasten their journey through the career chosen for them in that particular place. Martyn spoke of the friendly greeting he and his fellow cadets received, on official journeys to various tourist spots and museums. The talk was fascinating, and was demonstrated by the items he brought to show us, including colourful fans and silk objects. He was thanked by Chris Campbell, who in turn received a small gift from Martyn, as she had been his mentor.
for six weeks. Billy Edge was soon to have his faith tested by the death of his little son, which ‘completely broke my heart and will ...’. Yet he had found a lasting inner strength and began to hold prayer meetings in his cottage, even though all the furniture was damaged from his old drinking days. He was later to recall, ‘I told God I was right down ashamed of my sofa’, followed shortly afterwards by the lucky purchase of another for a bargain 21 shillings at auction – all the money he had. Several people asked to him to sell the sofa for a few shillings extra but Billy would tell them, ‘No; I have made a bargain with God, and it is mine ... They called me Praying Billy after this.’ The Temperance Van It took him a year to pay off all his drink and other debts but he was now a changed man. He composed hymns, played his concertina at revival services and became a staunch member of

Ladmanlow Chapel. When the Empire Hotel was being built in Buxton, Billy Edge of all people was given charge of a temperance van selling tea, coffee and cocoa to the workmen to keep them from spending their wages on beer. Regular gospel services saw nearly 300 men take the pledge; the temperance group opened a room in Spring Gardens with low cost refreshments and free indoor games such as bagatelle. Many men were unable to find local work during the winter and this was where they and their families were kept fed and warm. The coffee van later did service at the Stanley Moor Water Works before ending up on the football field to serve players and spectators. Praying Billy did not end his story here but this is where we must leave him, continuing into old age still on the straight and narrow, describing himself as ‘A sinner saved by grace’. Julie Bunting

SUNDAY FOLK SERVICE 23rd NOVEMBER
SOUTH DARLEY REMEMBERS
At the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month, pupils of South Darley School joined with the local community at St Mary’s Church to remember those from the parish who fought and died for us. In a moving service led by Reverend Stephen Monk, the church bell tolled as the pupils read out names of South Darley’s fallen whilst placing hand-made poppies at the front of the church. Following a two minute silence, the school presented the parish with a book of remembrance poetry, to which every junior child had contributed a poem, with four children reading theirs aloud. The children also shared extracts from trench diaries they had written, recorded and put to a visual and musical montage before leading a couple of hymns. A rousing rendition of God Save the Queen ended proceedings, with all those who attended leaving touched and closer to those who made the ultimate sacrifice one hundred years ago. Year 6 pupil, Alice Frost-Appleton, who placed a poppy bearing her greatgreat-grandfather’s name said, “I enjoyed the service even though it was sad and serious because it showed that so many people still care that our history is not forgotten and that it will always be remembered�
There will be morning worship and hymns of praise at St Peter’s Church, Hope on Sunday 23rd November at 11am. Refreshments served. Music led by Bamford Village Singers.

Below is one of the poems read out. In the Dark of Dust, by Oscar Szabo (age 9) In the Dark of Dust Early in the morning Over the dewy grass, You can still hear the morning warning Of the years before. Where death takes almost all. John, your blood stops and turns the mud As red as strawberries in summertime. But now the birds fly over fields covered in grass. Faint scars of trenches scour the meadows Where they were once before. The oaks have not quite recovered, The carrion crows have long gone To find another home. In the dark of dust, Early in the morning You can still hear the morning warning, Over the dewy grass.

We will explore the advent theme in sacred music, and carols across the ages. In this time of remembrance, we will also consider the effect of war on those left

beautiful carol arrangements in his memory. Wyns Tor Singers is a small chamber choir of a dozen voices, directed by Carol Taylor. We are based in Winster, and perform three or four times a year in Winster and nearby villages.
The glorious autumn colours of the Peak District are fading, the nights are dark and winter is just around the corner. It’s that time of year when you may feel a little down and in need of a “pick me up”. In 2013 over 50 million UK prescriptions were issued for antidepressants – and although Blackpool came top of the list, Derbyshire was not far behind. (Nuffield, Quality Watch May 2014). You could, of course, go down the route of the “chemical cosh” because you’re stuck in a rut, but I hope you don’t feel it’s the only solution. There are alternatives, and getting to
the root cause of the problem and having the energy to do something about it may well solve it. Did you see BBC’s Autumnwatch this year? The Starlings are on Prozac too! We’re taking so much of it that it’s in the water supply and the poor birds have lost their libido. (Dr Kathryn Arnold, University of York). It begs the question – what’s the water doing to the rest of us! Be green, help the environment and come and talk over your problem. You never know, it may just change your life.

A REMEMBRANCE TO REMEMBER The Act of Remembrance in Matlock Bath on Sunday 9th November incorporated some the work that has been started as part of the Heritage Lottery supported project ‘The Great War – Life in The Bath’. Contributions included readings of letters from Matlock Bath servicemen serving during the conflict and account of the action when the first serviceman from Matlock Bath lost his life. These were read by Shelby Hirstwood, Ellen Hollands and Annabel MacGregor, all young residents of the village. There was also a reading of work done by the pupils of Holy Trinity Primary School as part of their project ‘Life in The Trenches’. Tony Jones, Chair of Governors of the school read the work and introduced it by saying how important it is for the pupils to understand what happened during this important period of history. After names of the fallen were declared, a wreath was laid on behalf of the village by two other young residents – Libby Mowle and Lucy Hirstwood - and the Parish and County Councils also laid wreaths. To complete proceedings, a poem – The War Memorial – was recited. All the music was provided by musicians from The Sir Richard Arkwright Masson Mills Band.
Councillor Lorraine Keeble, the Chair of the Activities Committee who organised the event said that it was just wonderful that 30 people had been able to give their contributions and with many of them from the younger generation, this had made the occasion even more moving and memorable. As part of ‘The Great War – Life in The Bath’ project, displayed in the Memorial Shelter are information boards. There is a Role of Honour with much information about all of those living or associated with the village who were in the armed forces during this period. There is also information about the first fatality and further information about the sections of the armed forces. This display will remain in place until the end of the month and then will be changed and updated as the project develops. There will soon be information boards erected near the Memorial about its history. If anyone has information, contributions they would like to add or is just interested in being involved in the project, please email ww1@matlockbathparishco uncil.gov.uk or go to the w e b s i t e www.matlockbathparishcou ncil.gov.uk

New Year’s Eve Menu 2014 Served from 7.30pm
RURAL CHARITIES WIN HUNDREDS OF NEW MINIBUSES AS NEW £25m FUND MADE AVAILABLE Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin is to announce that hundreds of vital community groups from across the country, including the Bakewell and Eyam Community Transport project, will receive additional support. £25m will be made available to provide hundreds of new minibuses to community transport operators in rural and isolated areas. The scheme will support voluntary organisations as they provide vital services for people in rural communities with limited transport choices. The new fund means that organisations who already provide a service to the local community can bid for a minibus. Smaller operators and those who help out in rural areas will be favoured in the scheme. Announcing the scheme Patrick McLoughlin said: “As a rural MP I know how important Community Bus providers are and how much they matter. These groups help keep rural communities alive and independent. “We want to do all we can to support local voluntary operators who help out in these areas. This large amount of money is to help those who already do so much to support their community.”
Bill Freeman, Chief Executive of the Community Transport Association, said: “This is good news for community transport. Our own research shows that many organisations, particularly smaller ones serving their i m m e d i a t e neighbourhoods, struggle to put aside money to replace vehicles. “This will come as welcome news to them, and will enable them to continue to improve the lives of many vulnerable and isolated people by offering them accessible and affordable transport.” The fund is focused on existing voluntary and third sector organisations that already have a permit to run not-for-profit services of benefit to the local community. Each bidder can apply for one vehicle and will need to undertake that the vehicle will be used only for voluntary services and will not be used to compete for bus service contracts. This new scheme sits alongside the government’s strong commitment to commercial bus operators, which is a growing industry. Full details of how the scheme will operate and the information charities will need when applying will be set out shortly.

As part of our community involvement we recently hosted a charity evening to raise funds for a badly needed defibrillator for the village of Grindleford. With the generosity of the villagers, who attended the gala charity dinner, the village is now proud owner of a defibrillator and the excess funds raised are being put towards buying a specialised cabinet for the machine to be kept in. We host a weekly quiz night on a Sunday at 8pm lete for prize vouchers and the chance to win a rollover cash jackpot. The quiz proceeds will be donated to the local Community Shop Project at the end of the year. Quiz players have currently raised £145 for this cause. Why not come and test your knowledge? We would of course be delighted to host your Christmas party and will be open for Christmas Day dining and New Year’s Eve with live music.

TIDESWELL REMEMBRANCE SERVICE
The village showed its respects to the men of the First World War, and to the horses who also fell. The Parade was bigger than ever, one of the largest in this area. Many new groups had joined for the first time, to swell the ranks of others who are stalwarts. Tideswell band, The clergy, Tideswell Parish Council, Guides, Brownies, Cadets, Community Association, and many others were joined by three beautifully behaved horses at the rear of the parade. Several generations of families took part or watched, on a beautiful autumn morning. They heard the remembrance service and poems, hymns and quotations. The wreaths were laid at the memorial in the centre of Tideswell, so many in number that the base of the memorial was filled, and the side used also. A meaningful morning, and one to make all of Tideswell proud.

TANSLEY FILM PRESENTS “THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL” TUESDAY 2ND DECEMBER
Tansley Film will be showing “The Grand Budapest Hotel” (Certificate 15) in Tansley Village Hall on Tuesday 2nd December. Tansley Film ends the year with an “artfully precise comedy and an exhilarating and intelligent drama.” “The Grand Budapest Hotel” recounts the adventures of Gustave H, a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars and Zero Moustafa, the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The hotel; “a once- grand confection of a building” (Frank Kermode) is located in the imaginary state of Zubrowka. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting and the battle for an enormous family fortune. Ralph Fiennes stars as Gustave H and Peter Bradshaw of the Guardian describes him as being on “glorious form.” Kermode talks of the film's “rapiersharp wit” and of Fiennes's comic timing being “note perfect.” The film is directed by Wes Anderson and stars a number of celebrity guests at the hotel. Tom Wilkinson, Jude Law and Tilda Swinton being amongst them. Screening of the film starts at 7.30pm in Tansley Village Hall. Refreshments are available from 7.00pm. No membership is required. The cinema has comfortable, upholstered seats, high definition projection on a 3.5 metre screen and clear, rich sound. Tickets cost £4. Please book in advance to avoid disappointment - email book@tansleyfilm.org.uk or phone 01629 584243/07748 545287. For further information see www.tansleyfilm.org.uk.

When Flint discovers that his machine still operates and now creates mutant food beasts like living pickles, hungry tacodiles, shrimpanzees and apple pie-thons, he and his friends must return to save the world.

This was in front of parents, Mr and Mrs Phillips and members of the public. The coffee shop said, “It was just the thing to start
the traditional excitement surrounding Christmas. It was lovely to have the children singing so beautifully in here.”. It was Costa’s Christmas Fayre launch, and in the cosy atmosphere, the singers produced an amazing sound. A well-deserved hot chocolate, and Christmas gingerbread figure, were enjoyed afterwards.

Bakewell – FOR ALL THE NECESSITIES AND LUXURIES OF LIFE
Who could begrudge Bakewell its honorary title of The Jewel in the Crown of the Peak, especially during high days and holidays, when happy visitors add something special to the atmosphere of our picture postcard town. Thriving on both high class and sometimes modest trading, Bakewell has achieved a rare balance of warmth and business. Its reputation for good hostelries and eating places has been praised since the very earliest tourists helped to put the town on the map. Bakewell was granted the
right to a weekly market in 1330, yet had held a 15-day annual fair for 80 years before that. During the late 17th century the town had aspirations of becoming a spa, offering the fashionable facilities of a Bath House erected over a warm spring. These premises were upgraded by the enterprising Duke of Rutland in 1885. Those were the days when a nightly curfew bell still rang over what a contemporary writer described as ‘a rising and progressive town, destined, probably, to become one of

the most important in the North Midlands’. Large numbers of anglers came to fish the noted trout river; the town’s streets were broad and well-paved; there was the bustle of a Monday stock market and a Friday butter market, and fairs were set up five times a year. A guidebook of the day declared that visitors could ‘procure all the necessities and luxuries of life as well and as economical as in the metropolis itself.’ Creature comforts Probably outside living memory now are the scenes of stalls set up around Rutland Square on market days, or horse sales in progress at the end of Castle Street, with animals trotted up and down by rough-looking horse dealers. From time to time the circus came to town – the clown on his stilts impressing children by lighting his cigarette from the tall gas lamp in The Square. Then there is the oft-told story of the unfortunate circus elephant which went berserk and met a sorry end. Victorian advertisements
Peak Advertiser 24th November 2014 – Page 21
provide fascinating reading. A ‘longfelt want’ was catered for by John Boothman, a Matlock Street florist specialising in blooms for festive occasions and balls; The People’s Tea, Grocery and Flour Store on Mill Street offered tea of the ‘best growths procured direct from the London markets’; Water Street had a locksmith, a whitesmith and a bellhanger; Buxton Road boasted a hatter and clothier who specialised in stocking a ‘capital range’ of black mourning wear, mantles and corsets. A Mr Warsden could supply fish and poultry for all classes of society – both the ‘better class’ of residents as well as the town’s seasonal visitors. An 80-year-old plumbing business was by no means old fashioned, being quite capable of installing that modern means of communication for professional gentlemen – the speaking tube. Better still, the firm installed beer pumps and other ‘spirituous requisites’ for public houses. An antiquary in Rutland Square sold histories and representations of the most interesting places – i.e. souvenirs – for visitors with ‘cultivated taste’, while James Gratton’s bookbinding and printing establishment on Matlock Street stocked ponderous ledgers, prize books for schools, ink-stands, ball programmes and memorial cards. Shoppers were fully assured that Bakewell could easily provide all their physical and material needs. On a spiritual level, there was of course the lovely old church and a number of chapels. After all, who could argue but that ‘ … the most charming scenery or the most interesting antiquarian studies will not altogether compensate for the want of creature comforts and the ordinary conveniences of civilised life.’ The festive season Bakewell could hardly be better described today, from its lovely setting to the ‘creature comforts and civilised conveniences’ enjoyed for generations. The
wonderful Old House Museum should be on everyone’s itinerary, repeat visits always worthwhile, while the Town Hall offers varied programmes all year
round. And Mondays still mean Bakewell Market. There is very little which can’t be provided by this lovely old town, where inhabitants and visitors
mingle all year round – but especially on high days and holidays. The festive season is one of the most attractive and welcoming times of the year in this corner of the
Peak, so bring your shopping list for all those ‘necessities and luxuries of life’ – and most importantly, yourselves. Julie Bunting

On Thursday 2nd October Grindleford Primary School launched months of exciting fundraising activities aiming to raise £12,000 to buy and install solar panels, as part of the innovative Solar Schools project. The ambitious fundraising drive kicked off with a Green Day where pupils wore green all day, bought cakes donated by the teachers and had fun outdoor activities in the school garden. Once installed the panels will generate clean electricity, help cut the school’s energy bills and generate additional income which will be spent on school resources, equipment and a bike shed. Grindleford Primary School, in the Peak District National Park, is one of only 15 schools to gain a place on the Solar Schools scheme this year, after over 260 registered their interest. The project, run by the carbon cutting campaign 10:10 in partnership with 100% renewable electricity company Good Energy, provides schools with all the free tools and training they need to crowd fund the cost of installing solar panels. The project helps school children learn first-hand about renewable energy, climate change and energy efficiency. Headteacher Leonie Hill said: “We are thrilled to have been chosen as one of this year’s Solar Schools. We’re a small school with a big ambition – to install solar panels on our roof! As a rural school in the Peak District National Park we want to reduce our carbon footprint, save money, protect our beautiful surroundings and educate our children about the environment and how they can make a difference.” Amy Cameron, Solar Schools campaign manager said:”Grindleford Primary School more than earned their place on the Solar Schools project thanks to their passion, commitment and some great ideas for raising that cash! It’s going to be a big challenge, but we know, if the local area gets behind them, they’re more than capable of doing it!” Good Energy CEO and founder, Juliet Davenport

oven-ready turkeys, aged beef as well as our home reared pork and lamb. Making it a perfect Christmas with meat you can be confident in.

OBE, said: ‘’Good Energy is proud to support Solar Schools. Our vision is to create a safer, greener Britain and Solar Schools has that in buckets, education, community and sustainability all working hand in hand, bringing sunshine into our classrooms.” Grindleford Primary School will be giving their whole community the chance to get involved in their solar powered efforts, with a variety of activities and events throughout the year including school fairs, quiz nights and outdoor events. Fifty schools have already benefited from Solar Schools’ package of on and offline resources and training, including a website which enables parents, local businesses and others to donate virtual solar panels to schools and follow their fundraising progress. So far, schools on the project have raised more than £400,000 and it’s expected they’ll break the halfmillion barrier this academic year. The scheme has been praised for its ability to revitalise communities and teach skills such as fundraising, social media and business engagement to both pupils and parents.

BECAUSE I LIKE IT
A Christmas Poem ‘Twas the eve before Christmas, when all through the house Panic was stirring, for even the mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there. But presents were missing, the right items not found, Though for weeks they had searched through Chesterfield Town, To Derby and Sheffield paid many a visit But hadn’t discovered Because I Like It For here can be seen many a craft and gift, Art and jewellery to give spirits a lift Bronzes and glass for Santa’s sledge, Magnificent sculptures from the studio of Edge. So for that special gift and easiest shop, Don’t pass through Bakewell, pause and stop. Have a cake and a coffee, a leisurely sit, And select your gifts in Because I Like It.

AN EVENING WITH MATTHEW PARRIS
The Bakewell Oxfam Support Group is delighted that Matthew Parris has very generously agreed to address an evening gathering for us. Some people in our area will remember a quite young Matthew standing for election for parliament in 1979, and going on to represent us at Westminster for 7 years, before leaving to pursue what has become a very successful career in journalism. We see and hear him often on TV and radio, and his regular column in the Times is said to be essential reading by many in Westminster. He has a penchant for holding opinions which go against the usual grain of thinking, all of which should make for a lively and interesting evening, with a speaker well worth coming to hear. Friday, 5th December from 6.30pm is the time, the Medway Centre is the place, and those attending will be treated to a light finger buffet before the

A bit of information – Matthew holds the record among MPs for the fastest London Marathon, with an amazing 2 hours 32 minutes and 57 seconds. The record, from 2014, is 2 hours 4 minutes 29 seconds, so he didn’t do badly. He retired from running after this race, deciding to quit while at his best!

DERWENT VALLEY FLOWER CLUB Lynn Wherret’s ‘Bit of a Do’ demonstration was inspired by weddings within her large family. Her designs, based around baskets, wine glasses, spheres and bouquets used seasonal flowers and could easily have been downsized as a basis for members’ own efforts. Lynn showed her self deprecating side by recalling ‘disasters’ that beset some of her wedding arrangements – this brought instant accord with the audience as we all remember such ‘slip- ups’! It is gratifying to hear how many of our NAFAS demonstrators have been involved with ‘Chelsea’ and Lynn brought her own amusing stories of this to our attention. December the 4th is an
important date in our calendar as it is our Christmas Open Evening. We have invited the fabulous Keith Smithies, a well known National Demonstrator, to wow us with his demonstration ‘Christmas Past and Present’. We welcome visitors to join us at Calver Village Hall, Thursday,4th December at 7.30. This is always an exciting but relaxing occasion with one of the elite of National Demonstrators on stage awakening our senses with flowers - Pure Christmas magic! If you would like to join us, phone Christine on 01433 630161 to reserve tickets. Parking is free and a very warm welcome is promised.

Derbyshire based estate agents Eadon, Lockwood and Riddle have joined a consortium of independent chains to support new property portal, Agent’s Mutual. The portal, which will provide the online property comparison website OnTheMarket.com, is being set up by a group of leading high street estate agents, and is designed to provide users with a focused property search, from a team of industry experts.
ELR, who have offices in Bakewell and the Hope Valley, have welcomed the new comparison website which, in a bid to support local independent agents and unlike its competitors, will exclude online agencies. Chris Thomson, Managing Director at ELR, said: “Because the site is agent owned it brings online services back to people who understand the local market, work on the ground and operate
independently. ELR has been established for over 170 years and so we have an expert knowledge and understanding of the local area in Derbyshire, which allows us to offer a bespoke and specialised service. “Online agents do not provide the individual point of contact that high street branches offer. OnTheMarket.com supports the work of individual agents and provides users
Chris Thomson
with the reassurance that if they are interested in a property they can meet an expert in person or talk to them on the phone to discuss things further. “We are very pleased to be joining Agents Mutual and look forward to seeing the benefits that it will bring to independent agents across the UK.” Agents Mutual has over 4,000 members, and will launch in January 2015.

John Merrill, a former resident of the Peak District, is well known as ‘The Marathon Walker’ and as author of numerous books about walking. He has walked more than 206,000 miles, worn out 118 pairs of boots, over 1,000 pairs of socks and 43 rucksacks. He has also written books on Derbyshire history and historical personalities, most of them based on exploration on foot. John, now an interfaith minister, is an interesting man. He says, ‘I consider myself a Universal Monk exploring and learning about life and the world on foot’. He does no historical
research in advance of his walks, preferring to come around a corner to a church, historic house, or sacred site and discover their secrets himself. Given the amazing number of walks he has accomplished, he has built up a great knowledge, and some of this he will share in a talk entitled ‘Walking through Derbyshire History and beyond’. The talk, arranged by Winster Local History Group, is on Monday 24 November at 7.30pm in the Burton Institute, Winster DE4 2DQ. Non-members are welcome but are asked to make a contribution at the door towards expenses.

only ten stalls has now grown into an event with around two hundred stalls and attractions, and is now ranked in the top four Christmas Events in the East Midlands. The Committee have been working very hard since the early part of the year

CHRISTMAS MERRYMAKING IN MATLOCK, 1946 Matlock Christmas festivities of 1946 may not
have been on such a lavish scale as before the war but

there was a satisfying influx of visitors
• Nutritional Therapy • Reflexology • Eastern Head, Neck and Shoulder massage • Aromatherapy

nevertheless. The majority of hotels and boarding houses were full – Smedley’s and Lilybank, the last two of the town’s hydros, were packed to capacity. S m e d l e y ’ s , derequisitioned by the military authorities earlier in the year, boasted 425 resident guests, a figure to compare very favourably with pre-war numbers. Managing Director Major H. Douglas told a newspaper reporter that
Christmas dinner would necessarily be on ‘austerity’ lines but still boasting traditional turkey and Christmas pudding for all. An ambitious programme of entertainments for the guests included exhibitions by well-known lady snooker and billiards champion, Miss Ruth Harrison. The customary Smedley’s Hydro staff ball was to be held on 3 January, at which visitors traditionally waited on
members of staff and their guests. Up at Lilybank Hydro, managing director Mr John Kay confirmed that over 80 guests were in residence; entertainments devised for their pleasure ranged from dances and games to whist drives and billiard tournaments. As with Smedley’s Hydro, the Grand Pavilion in Matlock Bath was another recent post-war ‘demob’. Through the energies of Matlock Bath
Attractions Committee, the ‘Pav’ hosted two very popular events on Boxing Day: a party for local children in the afternoon followed by an evening dance for the adults. Carols, Santa and Follies In line with tradition at the Whitworth Hospital, every effort went into making the Christmas season a time of good cheer for patients ‘kept away from their own fireside by illness’. All wards and the entrance hall were brightly decorated, along with impresssive Christmas trees given by Forest Nurseries and Enthovens. St.Helen’s Church choir sang carols for patients and visitors on Christmas Eve. Turkeys for the Christmas Day dinner were given by Dr Dobson of Matlock and Mr Alfred Smith of Darley Dale. Visitors were allowed from 2 pm and together with nurses and patients listened to the King’s broadcast on the wireless. The main event of the day, however, was the distribution of gifts to the
patients courtesy of Santa Claus (actually Dr Stoker of Winster). Christmastime attractions of Matlock’s Cinema House (now Maazi Restaurant) included the Ziegfeld Follies starring Fred Astaire, Judy Garland, William Powell and Lucille Ball in ‘glorious Technicolour’. The latter part of the week brought ‘The Postman Always Rings Twice’ with Lana Turner as the ruthless, seductive femme fatale and John Garfield as her youthful lover. Further thrills and love interest were screened at the Dale Road Picture Palace via ‘A Woman’s Face’ starring Joan Crawford and Melvyn Douglas. Matlock traders were confidently looking forward to a busy Christmas, everyone assured that despite licensing extensions on Christmas Eve and Boxing Day, local beer supplies would survive the holiday onslaught – a cheery note on which to end this seasonal report from December 1946.

MATLOCK LUNCHEON CLUB After a delicious lunch at the Matlock Golf Club, members sat back in anticipation of our speaker, Meridith Towne and her talk entitled Women of Adventure. Meridith is both a costume historian and historic dressmaker helping historic sites, libraries and social groups to add a unique element to their meeting; and to museums and historical properties to increase footfall and income by creating costume to complement exhibitions. Her talk covered the Victorians’ attitude to women who chose a life of adventure, to the unsung heroines who battled through adversity alongside their husbands but of whom, few of us has ever heard. David Livingstone’s wife, Mary Moffatt, for example, accompanied him on his discoveries in Africa and while doing so gave birth to 4 children unaided. Gertrude Bell, who travelled the Arabian desert and dined
every evening in an evening gown, ate with silver cutlery so that any marauding natives could be impressed by her wealth and importance. For those who chose mountaineering, there were no special clothes or equipment. A Victorian lady’s attire would consist of a flannel petticoat (said to protect from all ills especially cholera!), a heavy wool tartan skirt worn over crinoline hoops, a woollen jacket over a flannel vest and a velvet cape and bonnet, to complete the outfit. She would also have carried a parasol to protect her skin from the harmful rays of the sun off the glacier and a pair of Cuban heeled boots on her feet! Succeeding with such encumbrances in the face of such adversity is the measure of their character, courage and determination. Christine Hooker

Your Totally Independent Local Newspaper This is the time of year when new titles of local interest often hit the shelves of our bookstores. Derbyshire Unusual and Quirky is the first non-fiction publication from Andrew Beardmore, covering our county from all points of the compass – not least the Peak – to unearth oddities and peculiarities lurking beneath the surface. The author belies his serious historical research with a light touch, advising the reader to ‘prime the quirkometer’ en route for a vast county-wide sweep of Derbyshire from prehistory to the present, taking in famous residents galore along with dozens of locations within easy reach of the Peak District. The contents list alone fills two pages, from Ashover to Youlgrave, while also revealing a section of Quirk Alerts relating to some very strange doings indeed. Shades of bizarre rituals abound, not least the World Head Balancing Champion and public beheadings (not the same thing), horrible plagues and horrid taxes, revolution and rebellion, high treason, industrial espionage and suspicious deaths. On the serious side we move from prehistory to the present, taking in the only known British Stone Age rock art, Ivor the Boneless, the burial place of Mercian kings, shrunken villages and a Thankful Village of WW1. Plus sporting legends and the tale of a man whose wives died 100 years apart – honestly! Not to mention our landmark ‘object of indecipherable bastardy’. The author himself is responsible for the cleverly worded 15-verse Derbyshire Shire Ode. All in all, Andrew Beardmore brings together so many stories from the well-known to the obscure that it would take an age to count them, yet he is so upto-date that we are given handy advice on the
Book Review relevant use of search engines. Impressively illustrated with over 400 colour photographs, Derbyshire Unusual and Quirky is published in large format hardback by Halsgrove priced £19.99. (ISBN 978 0 85704 237 8). Julie Bunting

A CHRISTMAS MUSICAL EXTRAVAGANZA NOT TO BE MISSED!
Peak District Music Centres will be hosting their annual Christmas Gala Concert at the Octagon, Pavilion Gardens in Buxton on Friday 5th December, starting at 7.30pm. This is a fun, festive event that is guaranteed to get you into the Christmas spirit, whilst also showcasing the musical excellence of our youth ensembles. Most of the children who will be performing attend schools in the North West of Derbyshire and range in age from 8–18. The nine ensembles performing in this concert include the Peak District Wind Band, Peak District Big Band and Peak District Youth Choir, as well as intermediate, junior and beginner ensembles. The programme will include a mix of music, including Christmas favourites, jazz and songs from the musicals. Tickets will be available on the door and are priced £7 for adults, and all children (under 16) accompanied with an adult are free. There will be a raffle, and prizes in the past have included tickets to see the Buxton Opera House Pantomime, the Halle Orchestra at the Bridgewater Hall, as well as vouchers for many local businesses.
Peak District Music Centres is a charitable organisation which provides a wide range of musical opportunities for young instrumentalists of all ages, standards and disciplines. PDMC has developed over the last few years, and now has 15 ensembles – string, wind & brass, jazz and two choirs. Playing as a member of an ensemble helps children to develop their
musicianship skills more quickly whilst making new friends. The experienced staff of the PDMC offer encouragement and expert guidance throughout, resulting in music making of real quality. For more information about the concert, or how to join PDMC, please contact Hannah Watson on 0777 202 1653, or coordinator@pdmc.org.uk.
A VICTORIAN CHRISTMAS IN BUXTON Winters in Victorian Buxton were a force to be reckoned with. The final year of the 19th century was par for the course – by December 1899 the bitter weather was just setting in. Mr T.W. Brittain of Wye Street in Buxton was advertising Yule logs and logs to burn, promising that they were good clean wood and not ‘old stinking railway sleepers that contaminate all food in the house and which are sold by others as firewood for the sake of extra profit’. Heavy snowfalls and severe frosts were already making travel hazardous; someone in the High Peak was selling a Canadian Sleigh for 8 guineas, actually bought for 25 guineas in Canada. Harpur Hill schools were closed on account of whooping cough, and a draper who regularly advertised ‘clock-spring corsets’ and corsets for children (!) now gave special mention of anti-rheumatism flannel. The weather didn’t stop a rather one-sided football match between Buxton Fire Brigade and Buxton Town Band in aid of new instruments and uniforms for the latter. The teams set off in some style from the fire station, the Fire Brigade mounted on their engine and led by the band to the football ground. The Fire Brigade won 7-0. A few colourful disputes were settled at Petty Sessions. One case brought shame upon a painter and a labourer apprehended at Miller’s Dale railway station for travelling without tickets. Described in court as ‘racecourse frequenters’ the pair had tried to run off but were stopped by a goods clerk and taken to Buxton police station. They were found to have a packet of racing tickets but only eight-pence ha’penny between them.
‘Ye Buxton serge’ People had wider concerns than just local news, however. Repercussions from the Boer War were now reaching the High Peak and men were leaving for the Transvaal in droves. Parting gifts were presented to P.C. Ashby of Edale and P.C. Gibson of Buxton, reservists in the Grenadier Guards. Everyone was especially keen to support ‘our boys’ during the Christmas period, donating to various war funds through houseto-house collections, dances, gymnastic displays, concerts and sports events. The young ladies of the Grange School in Buxton subscribed an impressive eight guineas. A sale of work was held at Peak Forest, where a handsome memorial to Commander Egerton, who had fallen at Ladysmith, was erected in the parish church. Charitable bequests known as doles were handed out in Buxton church on Christmas Day according to tradition: lengths of wool or flannel purchased for the poor under the terms of the Gisborne charity, also gifts of cash bequeathed ‘for the benefit of the Buxton and Burbage day schools and the poor of both these places’. As winter really got under way, Mrs Kirk of Burbage would have been busily clicking her knitting needles to meet orders for socks, stockings and cosy knee caps, while Buxton shops were well stocked with their seasonal lines of black cashmere hose, mantles and capes, Shetland wool underwear, silk mufflers and a heavy dressmaking material called ‘ye Buxton Serge’. Whatever the weather, Buxton shopkeepers went a long way towards keeping their customers warm as the town looked forward to not just a new year but to the birth of a new century. Julie Bunting

We had an amazing response to the first ever photographic competition in the Village Hall. There were 97 entries in 5 different categories. Rafe Gill won the children’s category with his lovely picture of a hedgehog. The weather section was won by Steve Riley with an atmospheric picture of the “Frozen River Derwent.” Andy Hanna won Something Funny with his seasonal “Pumpkins Beware” photo and Chris Waddington won first and second prize in the Abstract/Detail
Starburst by Chris Waddington category with lovely closeup compositions entitled “Ribbons” and “Starburst”. She also won Best in Show with her picture entitled “Pens at the Ready”. Throughout the weekend, visitors could vote for their favourite photo in the Village Life Section, Roger Cox was the resounding winner with his photo “Cows Coming Home”. Chris Gilbert, local Cressbrook photographer, judged the entries at the Saturday Preview Evening. The exhibition was open on Sunday to visitors who
were very enthusiastic about the event and came and sampled some delicious homemade cakes. Thanks very much to everyone who submitted photographs and to all the helpers and cake bakers. Thanks also to Mad4ink in Bakewell who donated a fabulous prize for the best in show. With such enthusiastic feedback, you can be sure that we will hold another competition next year. In the meantime, get your cameras out and get snapping!
included paying to throw wet sponges at teachers, unleashing super hero power in welly throwing, and paying to play computer games and table football. Making 3D shapes of Pudsey Bear out of penny coins raised a surprisingly large amount, as did cake sales. Students also paid to have their photo taken against a ‘green screen’ looking suitably heroic! Some chose to be ‘SUPERimposed’ so it looked as though they were flying over Matlock or meeting Batman! And an ‘open mic’ event invited budding performing art students to raise funds by charging entry to their singing and comedy turns. The atmosphere in school was fun and productive. The school’s house team said,
NEW ENTERTAINMENT GROUP REQUIRES ADULT MEMBERS
A new entertainment group now requiring adult members is being formed to encompass all the villages within Hope Valley. The group will take every care not to step on other theatrical groups’ toes and will have at its core the remit to be alternative to those groups. With this in mind preparation is underway to present next May a Puppet and Fun Show in Bradwell for the Valley’s younger children. We now require expressions of interest to be involved. Required are musicians and singers, stage hands and prompt, props and programmes, actors and hand puppeteers, wardrobe and make-up to sound and lighting. If you are a wizard with IT and can build a website, are handy with a piece of wood and a screwdriver, a roll of material and needle and thread, able to paint the backdrops or just fancy being involved, please come on board. We need people to stand in the wings to be the voice, usually spoken, sometime sung of the person making the moves in an animal costume on stage. Also sought are leaders for Old McDonald etc with the children. Deep rich voices and cute squeaky voices are especially required and accents too. Interested? Please contact Sylvia and we’ll arrange an inaugural meeting to form the group with rehearsals expected to begin in March. Email puppetsandfun@gmail.com Telephone 01433 620246, text (only) 07967 425 980.

This was a nice, short, ‘stretch-my-legs and no mud’ kind of walk, just perfect for a late autumn or a winter’s day. It had rained heavily all morning and I was about to despair of ever lacing up my boots and getting out when suddenly there was a break in the clouds, the sun came out and offered me a window of opportunity for some patchy blue sky and fresh air! I popped off to Tideswell which is the largest village in the National Park. I love the character buildings and houses, the higgledypiggledy streets and roads, narrow walled alleys that dash and dart between pretty little cottages and the way that the church nestles at Tideswell’s heart. No one is entirely sure how Tideswell got its name. One theory is that it came from an important Saxon warlord or chieftain possibly called Tidi, but another school of thought is that it was named after the famous ebbing and tiding well (now dried up) once designated as being one of the Seven Wonders of the Peak. Whatever the history and origin of the name, to locals it will always be known as Tidza! I began my walk at the church dedicated to St John the Baptist. When work began on this incredible structure about 1340. Apart from a short spell around 1348-9 when Black Death wreaked havoc in the village, it took about fifty years to complete this amazing house of worship. The tower was the last part to be built and reaches up 100 feet to the tip of its pinnacles. In the chancel are the palimpsest brass to Bishop Purseglove and the alter tomb of Sir Sampson Meverell, Knight
Constable of England under Henry VI who fought against Joan of Arc at the siege of Orleans. In the Lytton Chapel is a very early tomb of another Knight and his Lady with what looks like an angel to their side. Many of the intricate wooden carvings and pew ends are attributed to Advent Hunstone who set up a joinery workshop in Tideswell around 1890, where he
which was founded in 1559. Years ago I found a reference to a fascinating epitaph on a gravestone, now removed, that said, “Sarah Booker here she lies, nobody laughs, nobody cries. Where she’s gone to and how she fares, nobody knows and nobody cares”. From the church I wandered down Church Street to Queen Street which runs through Fountain
the north Derbyshire hills. The last traditional market was held here over a hundred years ago, but in recent years the village has staged an annual Food Fair and Festival, generally in May. Records show that Edward I, Edward III and Henry IV have all visited Tideswell at one time or another, maybe it’s time for another Royal visitor to make an appearance! Arriving at Town End I turned left off Buxton Road to go up The Lodge, which is a very narrow lane providing a short cut to Litton and a way of avoiding the busy main road down below. It also offered nice views down Tideswell Dale and across the White Peak hills. Tideswell and Litton are surrounded by a network of roads and tracks through a vast expanse of fields enclosed by mile upon mile of drystone walls. I love walking through Litton because it is such a pretty little village with an enterprising village shop, run mainly by volunteers, where I can get a quick cuppa and a piece of home-made cake! I left Litton by walking past the school, stocks and pub along Church Lane, striding out on the straight road until I came to the junction where I stopped for a breather and to say hello to some very friendly horses. To my right was Litton Edge where strip fields stretched like long green stripes up to the crest of the hill. In the late afternoon sun, with bright light and shadows, these were a photographer’s dream. The only problem was the telegraph poles and wires which ran right across the foreground. If I only had photo-shop software then like a magic wand I could probably make these disappear! This approach as a return to Tideswell was superb,

worked with his brother and nephews to create spectacular pieces of ecclesiastical carvings and woodwork. Examples of their work can be found in numerous churches in Derbyshire as well as other parts of the country. Around the church are many graves with several well remembered Tideswell residents and characters, as well as the unmarked final resting places of unknown child paupers who worked in nearby Litton Mill. A plaque to their memory can be found on the wall of the former Robert Purseglove Grammar School to the rear
Square, an extremely elongated area of space between opposing rows of quaint and quirky properties with a raft of architectural features. Tideswell can still proudly boast that it has a butchers and bakers but I’m not aware of any candlestick makers. However, there are plenty of other individual shops and small businesses here that all contribute toward Tideswell being very special. Tideswell was awarded a market charter in 1250 with permission to hold five fairs each year, this being the reason why it is featured on numerous guide stoops in
although the road here is quite narrow and without a footpath. After passing Cliffe House I descended a steep and winding footpath affording fabulous aerial views across rooftops to the wonderful church, the jewel in Tideswell’s golden crown. Sally Mosley www.sallymosley.co.uk
