Little Green Space Now that spring has arrived and the sun will (hopefully) be shining, many of us will want to get out and about and enjoy everything that the Peak District has to offer. Fresh air and exercise are essential elements of a healthy lifestyle and health experts recommend that adults aged 19-64 should aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity activity, such as brisk walking, each week – that’s 30 minutes five times a week. Fortunately, in this part of the world, we are wellcatered for in terms of outdoor pursuits: walking, orienteering, climbing, cycling, horse riding and kayaking are all great fun and easy to arrange in the Peak District. Walking is often recommended as one of the best forms of exercise, as it is low-impact, simple to fit

into a daily routine, and – besides the cost of a decent pair of shoes – completely free. Regular walking can reduce the risk of heart disease, strokes and diabetes, and is a good way to lose weight and improve your general health. The National Trust (www.nationaltrust.org.uk) can offer lots of inspiration for walks in the Peak District, and many of their properties have cafés to provide welcome refreshment after a walk. The Longshaw Estate has a café in the Old Shooting Lodge, near the car park – the perfect place to rest after exploring the estate’s parkland, meadows, ponds and ancient woodland, or following a hike around Padley Gorge or Carl Wark and Higger Tor. A visit to the Penny Pot Café, Edale, can be combined with a walk to the top of Mam Tor or, for the

more ambitious, a climb up Kinder Scout – which at 636 metres is the highest point in the Peak District. This challenging, eight-mile circular walk from Edale takes you via Jacob’s Ladder – part of the Pennine Way and so named after Jacob Marshall, a Dark Peak farmer who, in the 18th century, cut steps into the hillside to make it easier to climb. More recently, the path has been restored by the National Trust – and many walkers today are grateful to both Mr Marshall and the Trust for easing their passage up the mountain. Bakewell Taste Trail For those who enjoy a gentler experience, The Peak Advertiser’s Sally Mosley offers a range of fun, guided walks for all ages and abilities (www.sallymosley.co.uk). Her Bakewell Taste Trail can be adapted to suit the needs of participants – short and level for those with limited mobility, or longer and more strenuous for the energetic! Either way, you’ll enjoy lots of snippets of local knowledge about the town with tasty treats along the way, including locally produced pies, chocolates – and, of course, a sample of the famous Bakewell Pudding. If you have lots of energy – or want to make a country walk more interesting for reluctant children – then orienteering could be the

sport for you. It’s a fun and challenging activity involving map-reading and navigation to find the quickest route around a course. The great thing is that you travel at your own pace, whether that is running, jogging, walking or strolling – so it’s suitable for all ages, abilities and levels of fitness. Orienteering events are held in all sorts of locations, from woodland or remote countryside to town centre parks and playgrounds. For those with kids in tow, Xplorer (www.xplorer.org.uk) offers free events in various childfriendly locations across the Peak District, which will introduce the whole family to orienteering, by hunting for hidden animals and

Agatha the chicken made a guest appearance at All Saints Messy Church, Bakewell, on 6th April. The theme was the Easter story and involved building a huge palm tree, making Easter cards and decorating Easter biscuits. Easter gardens were made to show that Jesus died on Good Friday but was alive again on Easter Sunday. Agatha and her eggs were a reminder of the new life and hope that is at the heart of Easter. Over forty-five people of all ages met to join in the fun. Messy Church is a relaxed and lively approach to church for all the family.

This is followed by a short time of worship with singing, a story and prayers. As usual, the morning ended with breakfast together, including bacon butties, yoghurt and pancakes and a rousing chorus of ‘Happy Birthday’ for all those with birthdays in the coming month! The next Messy Church is on 4th May - from 9.15 to 10.30am. Come and join us - all ages are welcome though we do ask that children come with an adult. To find out more, ring Rev. Aron Simpson on 01629 813736.

THE ROYAL BRITISH LEGION WOMEN’S SECTION – 80th ANNIVERSARY OF THE BAKEWELL BRANCH –

The Royal British Legion was formed in 1921 – its task then and still today is to safeguard the interests of widows and families of exservicemen and women and to augment and widen the activities of the legion. The women’s section is an inaugural part of the Royal British Legion and raises money to carry out its benevolent work, by the individual efforts of the members of the branches. Bakewell branch was

founded by 5 women one of whom was Mrs Dorothy Mabel Wheeldon. Being the wife of a farmer and mother of five children in 1934 was not an easy life. permission would have been needed from her husband before she could have taken on such a role. Spare time would have been unheard of without all of today’s mod cons but she formed the branch with other likeminded ladies. The branch now has 53

members from all backgrounds and all ages. It meets for monthly meetings in the Town Hall usually on the fourth Tuesday in the month. There is a varied programme of speakers, visits to other branches in the vicinity, demonstrations, taking part in the county events e.g. group gettogether, purse presentation and county conferences. Membership is open to all women over the age of 16. If you are interested in joining the branch please contact the branch treasurer Mrs L. Pheasey on 01629 813820.

MATLOCK AND DISTRICT EMBROIDERERS’ GROUP R U O SEE

W E N RINGONS SP LLECTI CO

Matlock and District Embroiderers’ Group organized a beading course run by Clare’s Beautiful Beads of Belper, on Saturday 29th March at All Saints Church Hall, Matlock. We were taught how to do the basic ladder stitch, then went on to learn brick stitch using very large beads. After we got use to stringing these together we were able to choose the size and colour of beads from Clare’s collection. We then followed Clare’s design sheet and produced a flat piece of work and at the end we learnt how to zip the sides up to make one large bead. The course was enjoyed by the ladies who stitched and nattered. The Matlock and District Embroiderers’ Group hold a

daytime workshop at the Imperial rooms on a Wednesday Morning and have an evening meeting once a month. The next evening meeting is on

Monday 28th April at 7.00 for 7.30pm at the Imperial Rooms and the speaker is Gillian Sprakes, whose talk is entitled “From Sheep to shawl.”

If you would like to learn more about our group, you can contact me, Lesley Ballard, on 01629 823947or Christine Thompson on 04246 583153.

REMEMBERING YESTERDAY Age UK Derby and Derbyshire are delighted to announce they have been successful in receiving a grant from The Big Lottery, Awards for All Fund. The grant will be used at the Age Uk Bakewell Day Centre for a project called ‘Remembering Yesterday’ facilitated by Belinda Bradley, a volunteer at the centre. Belinda is keen to explore a new approach to help unlock the memories of its members and create communication. The grant will be used to purchase digital reminiscence therapy and life story software and a touch-screen computer. This will enable members from the day centre to have their life story told and to view it using the computer. Belinda Bradley set up the project to help staff and volunteers learn more about the members’ interests. This software will enable them to interact in interesting conversation by reliving family moments and sharing stories of past events. This will enhance their

interaction, not only with the staff and volunteers at the centre, but also with their relatives. It can also be a positive tool if a member has dementia, as it helps them to engage and provides a stimulus for conversation. The singalong sessions on the karaoke can have a calming influence on

members with dementia and can help them to relax and interact with the music. The reminiscence therapy software, comprised of video clips, photographs and music from the 1930’s onwards will be used during group reminiscence sessions. Reminiscence therapy can help the brain

remain active and boost memory. Research suggests it can combat depression and promote a feeling of well-being. Belinda says, “With this funding we aim to improve the lives of socially isolated older people; some with dementia, through support in reminiscing about their life history, which they will be able to look at visually via a touchscreen computer. They will also have a hard copy to keep for the future. This will also act as a record for the next generation and give an insight into a member's individuality if they are ever in a situation where they can no longer remain in their own home.” Bakewell Day Centre is open Tuesday - Friday for older people in the area who require day centre services. Activities include: interactive music sessions, arts and crafts, reminiscence groups, chair based exercises and much more. For information about places please contact Mary Ward on: 01629 813221.

BASLOW W.I. DARLINGS

Alfie and Sally Mosley Thirty Years Walking in the Peak District. Alfie, the same old Alfie, a bit older (14 years old now) and a bit more sedate but just as inquisitive, bright eyes sparkling with mischief. A bit like us really – raring to go and get the most out of life – and after hearing Sally’s inspirational talk we’ll be following in her footsteps exploring some of the Peak Park that we’ve not visited. Thirty miles represent the thirty years that the Peak Advertiser has been printing our local news and needs. We’ll not do the whole thirty miles because Sally’s description was more than adequate!! But our Gorgeous Greenies will be wanting to find the wild indigenous Jacob’s Ladder and golden Rock Rose clinging to the limestone escarpment in Deep Dale and they’ll be planning picnics on the Old Packhorse Bridge in Bradford Dale. Darlings, a whole new world awaits us. Holymoorside Walk- Leader Sue Ayres Quelle surprise! We’re walking parallel to the A619, adjacent but unseen to the two lay-bys on Chandler Hill and we’re in unspoilt countryside; no litter, no parked cars, no road signs and no path weary erosion. We’re “Away from the madding crowd”. We’re almost tiptoeing through these ancient woodlands carpeted with the first signs of Bluebell growth, strong dark green leaves, uncrushed and unspoilt. I bet it’ll be a picture in a few weeks time. (NB I must take my life in my hands and go down to the Golden Gates Roundabout and see if there’s any sign of growth down there.) Across unfertilised wild flower fields and along mixed virgin hedgerow we’re suddenly aware that we’ve rejoined civilisation, emerging less than a mile from our “watering hole” The Bull’s Head. Barbara Tyson is so impressed that she’s hoping to lead her U3A Bakewell Walking Group on the same route later in the year. Ashford-in-the-Water. “Meat the Cake Maker”. Oversubscribed, we’ve been “balloted” out, our monies refunded. We can’t go. How has this happened? I love going to Ashford’s events, they’re unsurpassed, those Ashford Ladies can lay on a buffet lunch second to none and we’ve been “raffled” out. This cannot happen again, we’ll have to lobby the Committee, we’ll have to launch Ann or Lorna onto this Committee or build an extension onto Ashford’s Village Hall, anything to get our tickets for the next event. Cycle Ride- “The Baslow Bikers”- Leader Jane Walker.

Excitement rises as we get into training mode, muscles toned and legs tanned, chains oiled and Lycra stretched! I knew I could get into them! Just a bit tight! More talc needed... Ooooh! The Tension!!!! 5th May Baslow W.I. Serving

These walks will be led but you are free to go under your own steam if you wish, following the route plan/map which you will be given. Check in is between 1.00pm and 2.00pm at Hathersage Memorial Hall, and you must report back to the Hall when you finish so we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t send out search parties for you.

Established in 1995, this friendly, family run company with 28 stores nationwide prides itself on selling quality giftware at very reasonable prices. From stunning items of jewellery, candles and candleware, frames to oak furniture, quirky wine bottle holders

store is brimming with great stock and is located in an excellent position at the front of the shopping village.” The Gift Company is the second new retailer to join Peak Shopping Village this year as The Wool Room launched their outlet just a few weeks ago. Richard

Taylor, managing agent of the Peak Shopping Village comments: “The Gift Company and The Wool Room have opened their doors within just a few weeks of each other, which is excellent for the centre and a sign that the demand for a classic shopping experience

still exists, alongside the internet. These launches also mark an important shift for the shopping village and its recovery from a very difficult trading period.” Visit www.peakshoppingvillage. com to find out about new shop launches, retail offers and forthcoming events.

S. ANSELM S SCHOOL PRE-PREP RUNS A MILE FORSPORT RELIEF

All the children in the S. Anselm’s School Pre-Prep took part in a one mile run in aid of Spors Relief on Friday 21st March. The sun was shining as the children completed their warm up, and then they eagerly set off to tackle two laps of the top field, which adds up to a mile. A few well-placed benches around the field allowed tired legs a small rest before returning to their challenge.

Some of the children even managed to complete three laps which is a mile and a half, no mean feat when you are aged between 4 and 7 years! The combined effort of staff and pupils added up to approximately 40 miles in total, not bad in 20 minutes. Lisa Donnelly, Head of Pre-Prep, said, “I am so proud of the effort that all the children made to run this distance with such

enthusiasm. They have loved being part of the

national spirit of Sport Relief 2014.”

enjoy different events that ran through the day. Kids got to enjoy 2 Aqua Fun sessions as well as water polo, while over 20 enthusiastic souls (as well as the odd member of staff) took part in an entertaining Aqua Fit session. There was live music from Ben Pedler and The Mill Stone Grit, both local musicians, with refreshment and food available all day on the veranda. A pool full of swimmers in the sunshine, for our first Sports Relief Swimathon event, made all the work to get the pool open a week early more than worthwhile. Our first session on Friday 21st, saw 38 swimmers swim over 90 kilometres, where personal bests for distance and time were set. A few swimmers got carried away, as having started out to do 1.5k continued they did 2.5k instead! The sessions on Sunday morning and afternoon were just as popular with over 60 swimmers completing over 170km. Over £2000 has been raised so far! Whilst they were swimming they were accompanied by music played through underwater speakers, leading to comments like - “an awesome experience” and “I can’t wait to come back next year and take part again” to mention a couple. It was so enjoyable for some on Saturday they decided to return and do it all over again on Sunday. Everyone at Hathersage Swimming Pool would like to say thank you to everyone who helped support our pool and raised money for Sport Relief. We look forward to seeing you all throughout the season.

Boat Horse Chelsea Meets Westminster Man COME TO HATHERSAGE ON THURSDAY 19 JUNE!

Boat horse Chelsea, a 13year-old Dales x Clydesdale mare, met DEFRA’s Rural Affairs’ Minister, Dan Rogerson MP, when he visited the trip boat Birdswood on the Cromford Canal on 8th April. The Minister took a special VIP trip on the horse-hauled narrow boat, which local canal restoration charity ‘The Friends of the Cromford Canal’ acquired in 2013 with the assistance of a £27,000 grant from DEFRA. Mr Rogerson said, “This new trip boat on the Cromford Canal was one of the first Rural Development Programme for England grants which the

Government awarded and I am delighted to see how this has helped increase visitor numbers to the canal. We hope this will inspire others to look at ways to tap into the 39 million tourist visits to this area every year and contribute to a stronger economy across the Peak District and Derbyshire landscape”. The horse-boat service will be a regular feature of Birdswood’s 2014 public cruising programme, running selected weekend and holiday dates throughout the season. It represents an historic continuity, as all boat traffic

on the 220-year-old Cromford Canal was horsedrawn, up until the canal’s abandonment as a working waterway in 1944. Birdswood project manager Mike Kelley said: “The major funding contribution from the DEFRA grant programme made all the difference in bringing the Birdswood project to fruition. We now have a viable tourism business that is attracting visitors in growing numbers and is already making a contribution to the local economy.” Chelsea’s owners Lance and Corinne Rose of Alderwasley-based Arraslea

Shires use their horses for agricultural and forestry work, as well as running a carriage business, but none of our owners had any previous experience of horse-boating. A series of working trials for the horse, its handlers and Birdswood’s boat masters were carried out successfully prior to the launch of public horsedrawn trips on Easter Sunday 20th and Monday 21st April.

SISTERLY TRIO HOSTS SPECIAL BEDROOM BAKE SALE FOR CHARITY Potting Shed Receives Boost Thanks To Fundraising Efforts A sisterly trio have raised £137 for The Children’s Hospital Charity by hosting a bake sale in their bedrooms as a special thank you to staff who helped one of the girls after she broke her wrist playing hockey. Sophie Tarbatt, 10, from Sydnope Hill, was treated at The Children Hospital Sheffield’s special potting shed where she was able to customise her very own pink pot after she fell during a hockey match at school, breaking her wrist in the process. As a thank you, Sophie and her sisters Georgina, 7, and Francesca, 4, held a unique ‘Bedroom Bake Sale’ to raise money to help support the Charity’s unique initiative. Parents Nicki and Rik said: “We wanted Sophie to be treated in the best possible environment,

Katie Swift, from TCHC and Sophie Tarbatt hence we brought her to The Children’s Hospital in Sheffield. The staff made her feel very comfortable and at ease in an environment she had felt very nervous in. “She was so pleased with her pink pot. It was definitely a silver lining to the accident! When she went to school, she got all

her friends to sign it and told them what a great time she had had in the potting shed.” The ‘Bedroom Bake Sale’ was held during a family party where the girls sold homemade fudge, marshmallow crispies and cupcakes to family and friends who bought the lot. The money raised from the

Tarbatt girls will go towards the hospital’s (or Charity’s) Make-itBetter appeal, which includes the Potting Shed, an initiative the Charity Director, David VernonEdwards, said is designed to ‘make things just a little better for children suffering broken bones’. He said: “Coming to hospital can seem very daunting, especially for young children who often don’t understand what is happening. “Initiatives like the Potting Shed really do go such a long way to making it just a little bit better for our patients.” The Charity’s Make-ItBetter appeal will transform The Children’s Hospital into a family friendly environment with state-ofthe-art equipment.

A new U3A for the Hope Valley is being launched on Thursday 19 June at 2pm in the Memorial Hall Oddfellows Road S32 1DU. A University of the Third Age is a learning cooperative of people in their Third Age – that means they are no longer in full-time employment. Members share many educational, creative and leisure activities, mainly in small groups meeting, regularly, often in each other’s homes. Members learn from each other by sharing their knowledge, skills and experience. The emphasis is on Having Fun and Making Friends. Although all local U3As are operationally independent, they are members of The Third Age Trust, a national, umbrella body which represents all U3As in the UK at national and international level. U3A is the only national education organisation in the UK run entirely by its own members. The U3A movement is growing all the time; today there are 923 U3As with 321,837 members

across the UK. They pursue an amazing range of topics, some academic, some practical and some recreational or social.

Most local U3As offer a range of opportunities to study, create and socialise, which contributes greatly to

members’ health and wellbeing. Come along and see how many interest groups you could join.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Dear Sirs, About seven years ago, through this newspaper I let your readers know that I was hoping to find a group of people, with or without experience, to join me in forming a new theatre company. The response was wonderful and from Buxton to Bakewell to Chesterfield to Sheffield folks came, excited to be welcomed into this new venture ‘Chatsworth Players’ was born! With the help and encouragement of our patron, the Duke of Devonshire we have become well-known and very well supported by audiences from all over our country! We began with a production of ‘The Crucible’ by Arthur Miller, performed in the beautiful theatre in Chatsworth House in June 2008. Then followed ‘When we are Married’ by J.B.

Jane Eyre

Priestly, ‘The Importance of Being Ernest’ by Oscar Wilde, ‘An Inspector Calls’ by J.B. Priestly, ‘Night must Fall’ by Emilyn Williams, ‘A Man for all Seasons’ by Robert Bolt, ‘Hobsons Choice’ by Harold Brighouse, ‘Ideal Husband’ by Oscar Wilde and our next production of ‘Pygmalion’

by G.B. Shaw will be 9-15th June. I thank you for your continued and even greater support and for making your journeys from all over our country, I appreciate this very much, and for the hospitality and help given to us by the Duke and Chatsworth House staff,

throughout the last six years - long may it continue! Sylvia PS. We still welcome new members. Please come along or ring me on 01629 810174. Rehearsals are every Monday and Friday in the Friends Meeting House, Bakewell. 7-10pm.

SOUTH DARLEY’S ‘WIND IN THE WILLOWS’ A STORMING SUCCESS

Just before the Easter holidays, South Darley C.E. Primary School put on a musical production of Kenneth Grahame’s classic ‘Wind in the Willows’. After weeks of rehearsals, as well as props and costume making, the show came together for 3 performances, much to the acclaim of the appreciative audience. The whole school took part in the performance, with children as young as 4 years old belting out the memorable tunes. However when it came to the acting, it was the Year 6 who shone brightest in the main parts as they made their final performances before heading to secondary school in the summer. Andrew McLeod led the cast fantastically well, as Mr Toad, performing with a confidence well beyond his years. He was ably supported by Poppy

Warburton as Badger, Amy Normington as Ratty and Philip Judson as Mole. Sam Hurt kept the story ticking along nicely as the narrator and there were some excellent singing solos from Charlotte Markham-Kinder, Oliver Shaw, and Alice Frost Appleton. Whilst being true to the original story, there were

many comedic elements, most of these being provided by the SAS (Special Armed Stoats) and the Weasels, who showed how they could put on a party in Toad Hall. For the finale, the whole school sang ‘Friends Together’, which was a fitting end to a performance in which the children had worked as a team to deliver a show to

remember. Paul Wilde, Headteacher, said “The children did amazingly well and we are proud of them all, although they have set extremely high standards for future performances which will be difficult to follow! They certainly deserved a restful holiday to recharge their batteries after the effort they all put in”.

Bakewell Town Hall buzzed last Saturday (March 29th) to the sound of brass and voices as Bakewell Silver Band hosted the Voices of Jessop Wing Choir from Sheffield, as part of its 2014 concert schedule. Roland Spencer MD of the band said, ‘We wanted to start our concert year off to a fabulous start and the choir certainly demonstrated great skill and musicianship.’ The choir has only been in existence just over a year and is formed of members who work on the Jessop Wing at Sheffield’s’ Hallamshire Hospital. Commenting on the evening, choral director Joan Spencer said that ‘even though we are still relatively new, the members of the choir sing with real energy and enthusiasm. They are a pleasure to work with.’ The choir entertained the audience through their

singing of popular songs such as the American classics ‘Barbrara Ann’ and ‘California Dreamin’. They also presented an Andrew Lloyd-Webber medley and Simon and Garfunkel’s ‘Bridge over Troubled Water’. The band played a number of contemporary pieces including ‘Haven’t Met You Yet’, ‘Sway’, the theme from the latest Bond movie, ‘Skyfall’ and featured three soloists Deborah Miles (cornet), Emma Hunt (flugel horn) and Steve Cartledge (Eb Bass). The concert was the band’s first appearance after confirmation that it had been promoted to the national brass band league’s first section. ‘This is a very exciting time for the band’ says Roland, ‘and we are looking forward to the coming year and the challenge that it will bring’. The band is, however, very

much part of the Bakewell scene and will be making a number of appearances in and around the locality through the summer. Joan is married to Roland and this husband and wife combination certainly added to the spirit and banter of the evening which concluded with the choir and band joining forces to present Gary Barlow’s hit, ‘Sing’ and also ‘Beyond the Sea’. A donation of £1000 will

be given to Helen’s Trust from the monies raised from the evening. ‘This is a great donation and the Trust would like to thank the choir and Bakewell Band for putting on such a splendid evening’ said Zoe Woodward, Community Fundraiser. More information about the band can be found on their w e b s i t e : www.bakewellband.co.uk on twitter and Facebook

BAKEWELL WI

Bakewell WI met on Tuesday 18th February when Sharon Davison talked about her experiences volunteering with HARC (Homeless and Rootless at Christmas). The charity only operates for 2 weeks per year over the Christmas period and is largely run by volunteers. Not all the people who use

the service are homeless. Some just have no one to spend Christmas with and go for the food and company. Volunteers prepare and serve the donated food, organise activities and talk to those who attend. Entertainment and gifts are provided on Christmas Day.

EU EASTERN EUROPE TRIP FOR HIGHFIELDS SCHOOL

A European Union project to promote citizenship amongst EU schools has funded another opportunity for Highfields students to visit Europe. This time the exchange visit was held in Estonia, in the city of Narva, near Russia. Five students from Highfields School stayed for a week in Estonia, along with other students from Holland and Italy. Various presentations and discussions took place about how each country's school council improved during the Comenius project. Highfields student Beth Douglas said the presentations were “vibrant with colour and creativity, giving us a much richer view of school councils and lots of fresh ideas”. One Highfields student, who discovered Russian was widely spoken in Narva, spent months rehearsing Russian phrases, thereby gaining house points for the house system back home. During the week

Antique Valuations Tapton Masonic Hall, Shefﬁeld Tuesday 6 May students also visited the Estonian Parliament where there was a thrilling debate on whether 'female

politicians are better than male politicians'. The teenagers visited the capital, Tallinn, and Narva

Castle, which has a fascinating history. Student Fred Salt said, “We learnt that Estonia is very

different, yet also very similar to the UK. For example everyone lives in flats in Narva, but they love

EASTER FUN AT BRASSINGTON PRE-SCHOOL

The children and parents of Brassington pre-school all shared a fun-filled morning together, decorating cakes, making Easter bonnets and

painting eggs. The highlight of the morning was an Easter egg hunt. Brassington pre-school are very proud to announce

under the new management of Mrs Andrea Brandon their Ofsted grading has gone from satisfactory to a GOOD. Children are welcome

from the age of 2 years, and we still have a few places left for after Easter. brassingtonpreschool@gmail.com

High Peak Farming Community’s Generous Gift To Bakewell Patients

High Peak Livestock Society raised £849 for Newholme Hospital’s Rowsley Ward, which was presented to ward staff during a break in cattle auctions at Bakewell Agricultural Centre. The livestock society represents 650 farmers in Derbyshire, who raised the money - from donations of cash and lambs sold - in gratitude for the care received on the ward by its members and their relatives. Sister Liz Violet from Rowsley Ward at Newholme Hospital, which is part of Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Trust, said: “We are extremely grateful for this generous donation. We are

Choir Hymn Revives Wartime Memories For Bishop Bob Mothering Sunday’s special musical item by Ashover Celebration Choir during the traditional service at All Saints evoked bitter-sweet memories of wartime days in the Far East for Bishop Bob Beak. They were bitter because the words of the old hymn ‘Wonderful Grace of Jesus’ reminded him of his time helping to repatriate British prisoners of war who had suffered horribly at the hands of their Japanese captors. And they were sweet because he remembered the first time he had heard the same hymn of praise, sung in three-part harmony by recentlyreleased Dutch-Javanese prisoners, who had also been badly ill-treated in their Japanese prison camp. “It was a deeply moving experience and one which

may well have been lifechanging for some of us,” said Bishop Bob (pictured at the age of 22), who was then serving with the Royal Air Force. Some years later, Bob rediscovered the song in ‘Youth Praise’, a little-used hymn book, at a parish in North Devon and recently suggested to musical director Ruth Russell, that the hymn might be added to the Celebration Choir’s repertoire. Recalling those dark days of wartime, Bob commented: “When the Japanese surrendered, we flew some of the servicemen out of Bangkok airport. They were in a terrible state mentally and physically. They had been starved and beaten and some had amputations which we were told had been performed without anaesthetic”.

Allwood Kitchens Stitch &

At Allwood, we are sure that the quality and price of our handmade, solid wood furniture cannot be beaten. A small team of expert craftsmen, led by a national, award-winning designer, work directly with the customer, cutting out all unnecessary overheads and costs which usually inflate the price. It’s a fact that most customers assume that genuinely handmade bespoke real wood furniture of our exceptional quality would simply be too expensive. A recent survey showed that many of the ‘standard chipboard ordinary’ kitchen suppliers, with their glossy brochures, commission based salesmen and huge overheads, were more expensive than Allwood. Why have ‘ordinary’

when you can have the ‘WOW factor’ for the same price or less? For a stunning real wood, genuinely handmade kitchen, built to your own requirements give us a try. With our no obligation quote / design you might be surprised at what you can afford! 0800 731 7351.

In the absence of a padre, Bob and a few friends began to hold a Sunday evening Songs of Praise service at the YMCA in Bangkok and it was there that the DutchJavanese POWs arrived and offered to sing. Says Bob: “One Sunday they appeared, produced a tattered piece of paper on which there was music, sat down and began to sing a song they thought we would know. It was the ‘Wonderful Grace of Jesus’. Their faces were radiant and their harmony was brilliant. Knowing what they had been through, we listened and were deeply moved.” Sunday’s version of the hymn received an equally moving response from the congregation; which included church members from Handley, Brackenfield and Wessington.

Wards W

elford House in Bakewell has been home to a shoe shop for well over a hundred years. We believe the first photo was taken on Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee in 1897, when the shop was known as John Mills. Does anyone know anything about the shop before this date? We would love to hear from you if you do! In later years it was run by John’s son Charles Mills and traded under his name until 1971, when he retired. Although initially known as David Scott when Charles retired, it then became a Clarks’ shoe shop and ran under the James Baker fascia. In 1988 it was sold to Wards Shoe Shops, a family run

business which had started in Worksop, Nottinghamshire back in 1954 by Eric Ward. When Wards bought Bakewell, the business was run by Steven Ward and his wife Jane, who also had shops in Matlock, Belper and Worksop. Their shop on Firs Parade in Matlock was opened by Steven’s dad Eric Ward in 1971 and is still part of the business. Today Wards Shoe Shops is still a family business and is now run by Steven and Jane’s niece Alison and her husband Justin, who have been with the business since 2006. This year Wards are celebrating their 60th anniversary, a fantastic achievement for a small family business in today’s

competitive market. The company is now based in Derbyshire and has shops in Bakewell, Matlock, Belper, Allestree and Worksop. They specialise in good quality footwear for adults and children and stock well known brands like Clarks, Ecco, Rieker, Gabor &

believe in customer service. They have a lovely team who are on hand to offer advice on style & fit. They take pride in offering a great fitting service for children’s shoes and also offer an in-store ordering service. The Wards shops in B a ke w e l l , M at l o c k , Belper & Worksop

Did you know that in 1954 the average price of a quality pair of men’s leather shoes was £5? many more. Each shop has an individual collection and not all brands are sold in each shop. Wards really

sell Clarks’ children’s shoes, plus the shops in Bakewell and Belper now have a collection of kids

shoes from Start Rite. Many of you will know the manager at their Bakewell shop, Jane. She has been working at the shop for longer than she might like to admit! When interviewed she said, “The shop has changed so much over the years. When I started we had a wooden drawer for a till!” Undoubtedly, the past few years have been very difficult for small businesses but director Justin said, “We face so many challenges today and have such a lot of competition. We try hard to make sure we get things right and really do value our customers”. Did you know that in 1954 the average price of a quality pair of men’s

leather shoes was £5? Whilst this may seem cheap by today’s standards, the average weekly wage back then was only £7! Compare this to 2014, when average weekly wages in the UK are now around £500 and the average price for a pair of men’s shoes at Wards is only £60. In real terms shoes are far cheaper today than they were when Wards was established. To celebrate their 60th anniversary Wards are hosting a number of events in each of their shops. They begin their celebrations at the end of the Easter holidays with a week of competitions and prizes at their store on King Street in Belper,

every year, with more than 80 per cent ending up in landfill. Fortunately, the number of eco-conscious designers is growing and taking advantage of the benefits and endless possibilities that reclaimed timbers offer. A simple table or sideboard can transform a room when made from a unique piece of well-crafted wood. The character and history is evident in the grain, which delivers an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;agedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; look that cannot be faked in fresh cut timber. At Authentic Furniture, all their expert craftsmen are local using only British reclaimed wood, that is full of character. So not only is the carbon footprint low, but using reclaimed timber also means that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not cutting down the British countryside forests. The wood often comes from old beams and joists that were previously used in disused mills, barns and old houses and can come from a variety of trees, such as hemlock and redwood. Each has its own characteristics in colours and grain effects, which gives each and every piece a unique style and warmth as well as the integrity of â&#x20AC;&#x153;proper, real furnitureâ&#x20AC;?. To view Authenticâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collection visit their showroom at Peak Village, Rowsley or online at www.authenticfurniture.co.uk.

12 students from S. Anselm’s Preparatory School, in Bakewell, spent 3 days last week exploring museums and visiting the WW1 Battlefields sites in France. Starting in London, they visited the Great War exhibition at the National Army Museum and the new exhibition of Portraits from the Great War at the National Portrait Gallery. Travelling by Eurostar to Ypres the following morning, they went straight to The Menin Gate where they got their first glimpse of the enormity of the events which devastated this town nearly 100 years ago. All found it difficult to take in the number of the dead whose names are inscribed on the monument. The Germans rained down destruction on Ypres for four years and the ridge witnessed some of the worst carnage known in any war. The students laid a wreath at The Menin Gate, following the two minutes’ silence and the Last Post. At St. George’s Church, built to commemorate the British casualties of the conflict, several Prep and Senior Schools had installed brass plaques to honour their dead. Whilst all were chilled by the scale of the casualties, the children were moved by the way that succeeding generations had remembered them in this church. In the afternoon the children tried to find the site where Lt Hubert Kirkby Peace,

The management of Valley Care Direct are very proud of the way their business has grown. They believe the commitment they themselves have put into the business has enabled them to grow into a Domiciliary Care Agency they can be proud of. Their reputation as an agency of excellence in the Hope Valley and surrounding areas is well known in the area they work. Valley Care Direct has not been a fast growing business; during the four years of trading the management have slowly built up their reputation and now have an excellent team of Carers working alongside them. They specialise in all aspects of Care from Social

Care to building complete care packages, working closely with Care Managers from DCC, Doctors, Nurses and NHS Continuing Care, specialising in end-of-Life

Care for terminally ill people who wish to remain at home. The managers of Valley Care Direct work with their staff on a daily basis, enabling them to set up

care packages ensuring that their Service Users’ care is “tailor-made” to their needs. This also means that they are all available for their Service Users, should the need arise. In all aspects of Care, the feedback from Service Users and their families has been second to none. Valley Care Direct has had many milestones from starting the business with just the four managers, to now having their own offices in Bradwell and a staff of approximately 25 excellent Carers working alongside them, which they believe they can be proud of.

UNLOCK CASH FROM YOUR HOME Equity Release – Considering a Lifetime Mortgage…

Like many people in or near retirement, you may find you’re well off on paper but less so in practice. It’s not that you don’t have the money – It’s just that most of it is tied up in your home. This can be a dilemma if you need to free up some of this wealth but don’t want to sell your home. What is a Lifetime Mortgage? A lifetime mortgage is a special type of mortgage for people in or near retirement, that offers

a way of releasing some of the equity in their home. Like any other mortgage, it’s a loan secured against the property and interest is accumulated, but the difference is that you don’t have to repay any of the loan or interest during your lifetime. The interest rate you pay is fixed for the lifetime of the mortgage. You can use the money however you wish: perhaps you have plans to travel or just

want to maintain the lifestyle you enjoyed when you were earning a regular income. If you’re not as mobile as you used to be, you could use the money to adapt your property to make your life more comfortable. Whatever you’d like to use the money for, taking out a Lifetime Mortgage can offer a more flexible way of planning for the future, allowing you the freedom to enjoy your

DINNER DELAY by Peter Newbould

Just when dinner was about to be served on Tuesday, the 18th March, all the lights went out in the kitchen, lounge and dining room. Nick the Handyman and colleague was soon on the scene to check the main fuses but the fault lay elsewhere. Fortunately a workman had tested the emergency lights only a few days before but these lights give off poor illumination. All the emergency fire doors from the kitchen to the dining room closed automatically, making it difficult to wheel the dinner trolleys to the dining room. Residents were seated for dinner, some in wheelchairs and dinner was served by Lisa the cook and the catering staff. Daniel, Hayley and Charlotte. The food was very good (as always) and soon it was time for pudding, and in a few cases second helping! It is just as well we get weighed every week. We had just finished our meal when the lights came on again. Rumour has it that it was a lightning strike, but no damage was done. Three cheers for all the staff for coping so well.

A Night At The Opera FIDLER TAYLOR SPRING ANTIQUE AND FINE ART SALE 3rd May New Georgian Opera is delighted to present an evening of Opera’s most loved and spectacular hits in aid of The Grand Pavilion Matlock Bath and The Derbyshire Historic Buildings Trust. Featuring lyric spinto soprano Meeta Raval, countertenor Oliver Gerrish, tenor John Pierce and pianist Kelvin Lim. The evening will be fun, glamorous and dramatic. Liveried footmen will welcome guests along a red carpet and guests are very welcome to wear black tie, ball gowns and wellies, should they wish. The Grand Pavilion is in a state of rebuild so the juxtaposition of opera, dust and elegance should be a fun one! The evening starts at 7.30pm. The Grand Pavilion Matlock Bath is an historic concert hall being rescued by the local community, who are aiming to restore it as a leading performance venue for the Midlands. The building is already open and operating successfully as a live music venue and, whilst it is ‘a little bit scruffy’, visitors can appreciate the vast potential of this Edwardian pleasure palace. The Derbyshire Historic Buildings Trust was established as a charity to

protect and care for neglected historic buildings, in and around the county of

demolition, and it works for the modernisation of these buildings without damage to their essential character. Meeta and Oliver feel that the plight of The Grand Pavilion and the ethos of the DHBT were ideal and worth highlighting. We know that your support and presence at this grand opera gala will help raise funds and awareness for these two charities. For tickets and more information please visit: www.thegrandpavilion.com

Having displayed their spring Antique & Fine Art Sale on the-saleroom.com website, Fidler Taylor had a good response with a wealth of interest and a higher than anticipated level of pre-sale bids, particularly in the ceramics section of the sale, a pair of blue and white oriental teapots achieving £1,800 and an Orange Mans jug £170. A boxed Royal Crown Derby miniature tea service sold at £290 and a pair of Vienna porcelain tea canisters sold in the room at £400 with a similar pair of cabinet cups and saucers achieving £340. Moorcroft saw strong bidding but Brampton was down on its usual level of interest. Nonetheless a small Nelson jug sold at £200 and an unusual dolphin shaped sauceboat at £260. A tall cloisonné vase, with some damage, sold at £200, an onyx and malachite desk

stand £240, a collection of five scent bottles £320 and a boxed fan £300. An exquisitely carved ivory group sold to heated bidding on the phone at £2,400. Silver continues to attract reasonable interest with a 12” Edinburgh salver selling at £320, a Mappin & Webb glass and silver dressing table set £260 and a pair of London 1908 sauceboats at £240. Jewellery was not particularly well represented in the sale but a pair of cut diamond earrings sold at £380. Pictures appear to have seen a revival of interest with the highest price of the day achieved for a wellexecuted oil portrait of a family group dating back to the late C19th, which sold to a telephone bid at £4,000. A Cecil Aldin print, of playful puppies, attracted a high

level of pre-sale interest and sold at £175, a Montrose watercolour at £750 and a set of four oak framed point-to-point oils, which had generated considerable pre-sale interest, sold on commission at £300. Long case clocks continue to yield disappointing results for sellers but represent an attractive buy for purchasers. However, a chinoiserie decorated and lacquered cased clock, by Thomas Hally of London, sold at £1,100. Collectables continue to be popular with a set of six T E Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) photographs selling at £500, a Victorian cape at £55, a sword stick at £90 and a butter churn on stand at £100. Good quality furniture sold well but middle range country furniture continues to disappoint. A Dutch

marquetry fold-over games table achieved £700, an unusual Victorian display table with intricate shell design realised £750, a George III rosewood foldover tea table achieved £620 and a C19th barrel topped ladies desk only £500. A substantial mahogany serpentine fronted mirror backed sideboard realised £420 and an oak livery cupboard, £500. A five panelled back settle achieved £260. Furniture, therefore, continues to represent an excellent purchase for home furnishers. The Auctioneers’ next Antique Sale is scheduled for August with the next General Sale, which is already fully subscribed, set for 26 April. This will be followed by the annual Garden & Plant sale for which entries are still being taken.

On Saturday 3rd May from 10am, Tideswell Village will be hosting its fourth annual Food Festival. Created in conjunction with the BBC programme village SOS to showcase Tideswell village, it has gone from strength to strength, with last year’s festival attracting 5000 people. This year the streets will again be lined with over 60 independent food related stalls, offering unique treats and gifts, whilst the whole village will be entertained by an array of music and activity, creating a fabulous traditional village festival atmosphere. The Cathedral of the Peaks will be also hosting various music events including the Tideswell Singers and the Tideswell Band, whilst children and adults alike will find exciting activities to do in the Community Kitchen Garden. In addition, Tideswell School of Food will be opening its

doors to entertain visitors further with cooking demonstrations, wine tasting and tours of the building. Suzanne Elvidge, part of the organising team and co-owner of the Peak Volumes bookshop in Tideswell explains: “We

are really excited about this year's food festival, and are so pleased to see how it has grown over the four years. This year promises to be another glorious day out for all the family, with fabulous food, great entertainment and a wonderful atmosphere, all

set in a beautiful part of the Peak District.” The festival is unique as it is run entirely by the village volunteers- even the car parks will be run by the local Scout and Cub groups, so visitors will truly be treated to a village food extravaganza.

medium heat, stirring from time to time until soft. Mix with the beans, 200g breadcrumbs, lemon juice, finely chopped chilli and herbs and season well with salt. Taste to see if the mixture is spicy enough and add some chilli powder if you need to. The mixture should be good and tasty as it will lose some flavour in cooking. You should be able to mould this mixture with your hands. If it is too soft you could add some more breadcrumbs. Make the mixture into 12 balls. Now for the fiddly bit.

Dip your croquettes in each bowl in this order ensuring that they are covered well at each stage. Place some sunflower oil in a shallow pan about quarter of an inch deep over a medium heat. Wait until hot then cook the croguettes a few at a time turning in the hot oil until golden brown. Add more oil as you go along if you need to. Serve hot with spicy relish and crispy salad.

Local Cinema Screenings TANSLEY FILM PRESENTS “AMERICAN HUSTLE” TUESDAY 6TH MAY

For our final film of the season Tansley Film will be showing “American Hustle” (Certificate 15) in Tansley Village Hall, on Tuesday 6th May. “American Hustle” won the Golden Globe best comedy film and BAFTAs for best original screenplay, best supporting actress( Jennifer Lawrence) and best hair/make up. The film; a black comedy loosely based on a true story, from the 1970s, involving the FBI and a fake sheikh, is directed by David O. Russell. If you were around in the 1970s, see if you agree with Mark Kermode, who says, “It expertly recreates the excesses of the era!” The brilliant con man; Irving Rosenfield (Christian Bale) is married to Rosalyn, played by Jennifer Lawrence, but he is madly in love with his partner; Sydney (Amy Adams). Both Irv and Sydney are forced to work for FBI agent; Richie, played by Bradley Cooper, who also falls in love with Sydney. They are all pushed into a world of power brokers and the mafia. Peter Bradshaw of the Guardian describes it as, “ a bizarre, uproarious and semi - credible story,” which “rattles along with plenty of comic set pieces.” Come and enjoy Tansley’s

last film of the season with this riotously funny, impeccably cast film of

“unbridled energy and vibrant direction.” (Peter Bradshaw). Screening of the film starts at 7.30pm in Tansley Village Hall. Refreshments are available from 7pm. 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 tansleyfilm@googlemail.co m or phone 01629 584243/07748 545287. BASH - BAKEWELL AND ASHFORD FILM SOCIETY – THE ILLUSIONIST

Bakewell and Ashford Film Society will be screening the romantic mystery/drama The Illusionist (2006 Cert. PG) on Sunday May 11th at the Medway Centre, Bakewell at

7.30pm. Eisenheim is a magician in early 1900’s Vienna, who falls in love with a woman well above his social standing. When she becomes engaged to a Crown Prince, Eisenheim uses his powers to free her and undermine the stability of the royal house of Vienna. The last film of this season will be on June 8th - A Late Quartet (2012) when we will also hold our AGM & Summer Social. Our draft programme for 2014-15 season will be available in May. The new season will begin on Sunday September 14th. Membership forms are available on the society’s website (www.bashfilms.org.uk) or from The Medway Centre. Membership is £24 for the new season of 10 films. Temporary membership for 2 films is £8 or you may attend 1 film as a guest of a member for £5. Contact Cheryl Mayfield, 22 Catcliffe Cottages, Bakewell DE45 1FL (cherylmay field@stainedglass1.plus.c om) 01629 814770. Members may also borrow films free of charge from the society’s growing DVD/Blu-ray library.

CALVER FILM – ARGO

This years winner of 7 Oscars plus BAFTAs for Best Director and Outstanding British Film, is the last film in yet another successful silver-screen season at Cressbrook Film Club. At 90 minutes this space drama is a rather short film - but it packs much more tension, drama, scares and adventures than many two hours plus action films. Seasoned astronaut Matt Kowalsky (George Clooney) is on his final mission in space, while medical engineer Dr Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) is making her first outing on the Space Shuttle. Floating debris hits the shuttle, damaging it irreparably, killing other crew members and Kowalsky and Stone now find themselves floating unanchored in space with low oxygen supplies and cut off from all communication on Earth. They work together in their attempt to survive but will they both make it back to solid ground? Cressbrook Film Club has a 4 metre screen and 5.1 surround sound, really comfy seats and the bar is open for refreshments before and after the film. The doors open at 7.30pm; the film starts at 8pm and lasts 90 mins. Guest tickets available at £5 per film for adults and £3 for kids - contact David 01298 872 144 to book guest tickets in advance. Go towww.cressbrookclub.org.u k for details of next seasons membership, location of the venue and especially, future events in the village this summer. Thank you to everyone who has supported Cressbrook Film Club for another season and watch out for the new programme in the Peak Advertiser in the Autumn.

BEATING THE BOUNDS – ROGATION SUNDAY – 25th MAY 2014

There will be a perambulation within Bakewell’s Parish boundary starting at All Saints Church at 12.15pm – that is after the morning service. The walk will cover about 5 miles and should take two to two and a half hours. There are lots of opportunities to shorten the walk if you wish. Everyone is welcome. Be prepared for all weathers and bring refreshment if you require. Beating of the Bounds,

between the fifth Sunday after Easter and Ascension Day, is an age-old ritual which was revived in Bakewell in 2005. Marking the boundary of the Parish is perhaps not so vital since the coming of the Ordnance Survey, but a neighbourly walk and thanking God for the fruits of the field can still be regarded as important.

Book Reviews A HISTORY OF THE PEAK DISTRICT MOORS However well we think that we know our surrounding moorlands, here is an opportunity to explore afresh under the guidance of David Hey. As Emeritus Professor of Local and Family History at the University of Sheffield and past President of the Ramblers’ Association for this area, David writes with a contagious enthusiasm. Looking far beyond sweeping views and popular walking routes, he reveals the whys and wherefores of how human activity has shaped the landscape of the Peak District moors. He gradually follows through, from prehistoric sites to arrive at the achievements of those who won – or regained what our ancestors had – the ‘right to roam’. This generously illustrated book roams amongst the best – and lesser-known – moorland features, whether Mam Tor, Gardom’s Edge, Stanton Moor, or a massive wall, built by Herculean labour against one of our most stunning tors, probably 2,000 – 3,000 ago. At the opposite scale, Mesolithic workshops above the Colne Valley have produced thousands of pieces of flint, many worked into tools, with further finds

discovered to a lesser extent near Buxton. Elsewhere our moorlands have revealed prehistoric earthworks, Iron Age and Roman finds, 12th-century potsherds and evidence of early farming and ancient field systems. We learn of the Black Death, monastic granges, salt roads, and relics left by the hewing of troughs, gateposts and millstones. Those found to be damaged or flawed during production still lie abandoned on the moors, but were otherwise trundled away via artificial holloways such as those descending from Millstone Edge. Moorland ramblers may come across ancient guidestones pointing the traveller in the right direction by means of a carved hand and perhaps a phonetical spelling such as ‘Shafild’. The purpose of rather more recently carved dates and initials come to light under David’s guidance, together with the derivation of numerous place-names and dialect … the cultivation of ‘haggs’ is not what first comes to mind. Staggering statistics surround the 6-year construction of Woodhead rail tunnel, begun in 1839: ‘More than 1,500 navvies worked night and day, including Sundays…’ Over

30 labourers were killed and several hundred injured. The impact of a more recent story of the moors is afforded full credit for what we are free to enjoy today – the Right to Roam, gained through determination, mass trespasses, fisticuffs and arrests. Myths are debunked and credit given to the many individuals and organizations that won the battle on our own beautiful doorstep. The book itself is a walkers’ guide par excellence. Illustrated with more than 80 photographs, ‘A History of the Peak District Moors’ by David Hey is published by Pen & Sword Local at £12.99. To order from local bookshops quote ISBN 978-1-78346281-0. SPAS AND SPA VISITING We also have a special local interest in this new title from the matchless Shire Library series, in which Ian D. Rotherham, ecologist and landscape historian, traces the story of British Spas from Roman and medieval periods through to their Georgian/Victorian heyday and into modern times. To begin at the beginning, a hermit from ancient Palestine opined that bathing was unsinful as long as you were ill and not as a means of cosseting the body. A Papal view of the late 6th century similarly made it clear that bathing could be undertaken to provide ‘needs of the body’ but certainly not for ‘titillation of the mind and sensuous pleasure’. English medieval bathhouses, however, managed to bring both attributes to their communal activities, attracting a seedy reputation in the process. Claims of dangers to one’s health had little effect, not even the supposed risk of contracting plague or syphilis, not to mention ‘foul air’ entering the pores. King James 1 took no chances – he apparently never washed any part of his body except his fingers. With the existence of holy wells and subsequent emergence of spas and bathhouses, the English managed, over a long period, to have the best of both cleanliness and Godliness, leading to the advent of Georgian spas and, as occurred here in the Peak, hydropathy. Whereas some blurring of activities had been attached to early Georgian health resorts and other bathing places, hydropathy was a very respectable profession that enjoyed royal patronage. Derbyshire also boasted a number of chalybeate (ironbearing) wells, claimed by some to ‘cure the colic, the melancholy, and the vapours… it killed fat worms in the belly… and dried the over-moist brain.’ The mineral waters of Bath supposedly cured a crusader of leprosy, a claim also attributed to a well at Stoney Middleton. Curative therapies such as those exemplified by Buxton, Matlock Bath and Matlock attracted a healthy trade and considerable fame for their various water cures, rather more than just a ‘drop in the ocean’ on the wider stage. ‘Taking the waters’ became associated with finer aspirations, making patronage highly fashionable. Tales of miracle cures, sometimes involving

electricity, were lapped up as huge numbers of adherents avowed to improved health – excepting for the occasional fatal shock to a weak heart. Most innovations seem to have been endured, not enjoyed, while both Bath and Buxton promoted their waters as being endowed with ‘healthgiving radiation’! Entertainingly illustrated with woodcuts and colour prints, Spas and Spa Visiting by Ian D. Rotherham will raise both a smile and the eyebrows. Published by Spire at £6.99. To order from local bookshops quote ISBN 978-0-74781-374-3 SOLSTICE TRACKWAYS This intriguing new publication from Frank Parker is subtitled ‘Following the winter sun. An account of the ancient Peak District Copper Trade Routes’. The author traces his interest in ancient history and topography back to early childhood, further sparked when he reached secondary school and became fascinated by persistent stories that some of the boys were of ancient ethnic descent, their appearance and dialect marking them out as different. It even seemed that ‘the Biddle Moor folk spoke a foreign language’ which some listeners insisted was Egyptian. Similarly, looking beyond the tradition of Bradwell folk being descended from Roman leadmining slaves, the author proposes evidence of a much earlier Phoenician trading population – one that practised bull worship. His career as an industrial chemist was to take Frank to Langley and then Quarnford, where his explorations suggested ancient cultural connections between place names, copper mining and the alignment of midwinter solstice lines – similar to those found at Karnac in Egypt and Newgrange in Ireland. Ecton provides the best-known evidence of early copper mining in the Peak, supported by the discovery of a red deer antler tool radiocarbon dated to 1880-1630 BC. Solstice Trackways offers convincing hypotheses on the derivation of place names connected to Bronze Age copper trading hubs. Possible distribution routes to the sea for export are waymarked by surviving round-shafted pillars and standing stones. The many examples include two shafts at Disley on a line passing through High Lane, formerly Hoo Lane – ‘Hoo being Hu Gadarn the Bull God (Baal).’ Then on towards Ludworth – ‘Ludd was the ancient god of midsummer sunshine, fertility…’ Recent work by the author proposes five specific solstice lines involved in the transport of copper from the Peak to the coast. An apparent distribution route north of Buxton is marked by no less than eight round section shafts. Buxton itself may owe its existence to being located on the ‘midwinter solstice line from the copper sources in the Peaks to the River Mersey’, a line that earlier skirts the enigmatic Bronze Age burial site of Minninglow. Many of our well-trodden walking routes and mysterious stone monuments will never seem the same again – with undoubted revelations – however well you may think you know the Peak.

Solstice Trackways is published in A4 large print paperback and generously illustrated with photographs and maps. On sale at Flash Bar Stores or by post from Frank Parker, Ball Stone Farm, Quarnford, Buxton SK17 0SZ, priced £7 incl. p&p.

THE CHATSWORTH VILLAGES AT PEACE AND WAR To coincide with the centenary year of the outbreak of WW1, local author Keith Taylor has furthered his trademark research skills with the latest addition to his impressive series from Country Books. The so-called Great War claimed the lives of more than 800,000 British soldiers. Says Keith, ‘To be their inheritors is our greatest privilege, and it is one none of us should ever forget.’ Moving from the home front villages of Edensor, Pilsley and Beeley to the theatre of war – and back again for those fortunate enough to return – the lives of participants are honoured in detail. Their stories are illustrated with a total of some 300 photographs both formal and informal, from proud uniformed servicemen to family scenes showing the many who were destined to be bereaved of their menfolk. Within weeks of the outbreak of WW1, wounded soldiers were arriving at Bakewell Red Cross Hospital. The Whitworth Institute at Darley Dale was to become a convalescent hospital, while a Royal Naval Convalescent Hospital would be set up in the Edensor Institute. Baslow Stockdale Institute was also held in readiness as a convalescent home. Everyone seemed to be

on full alert, from farmers bringing their horses into Bakewell for possible use by the Cavalry to the arrest of presumed German spies at Rowsley. The Gallipoli Campaign of 1915 cost the lives of six men from the Devonshire and Rutland villages, three of them on the same day and including an old boy from Lady Manners School. The second section of the book relates to the experiences of local servicemen during WW2, some of whom were to lose their lives in North Africa. The numerous detailed tragedies range from the death in action of a young Chatsworth forester whose own father had fallen in the First World War, to an expupil of Baslow School who perished in a Japanese PoW camp. Numerous rare photographs give glimpses of life on the home front, including the arrival of evacuees at Hassop and Rowsley stations by the trainload, each bemused child carrying a gas mask. The Duke of Devonshire moved his family out of Chatsworth for the duration of the war, enabling the girls of a boarding school to move in – together with their 26 pianos. Turning the pages further brings up a shocking number of names and faces of those who were to become victim to the Second World War. In both sections of the book, the technicalities of warfare feature strongly, from the innovative introduction of barbed wire and poison gas during the infamous trench battles of WW1 to the role of aircraft in WW2, culminating in the use of the atomic bomb. With a foreword by the Dowager Duchess of Devonshire and an acknowledgement to all who have contributed memories and precious photographs, the author concludes with a dedication to those from the Devonshire and Rutland parishes who did not return home. Keith Taylor has done them all proud. The Chatsworth Villages at Peace and War is published by Country Books at £12.99. (ISBN 978-1906789-92-3) Julie Bunting

BAKEWELL BIRD STUDY LIVE MUSIC IN THE DALES Piatti String Quartet GROUP 12th MAY

Bakewell Bird Study Group’s next meeting is on Monday May 12th at 7.30pm at the Friends’ Meeting House, off Matlock Street in Bakewell. We make our annual departure from birds to hear a talk by Mark Eustace of the Chesterfield Astronomical Society on deep space and the objects that can be found there – known as Messier Objects after the 18th century comet hunter who created the catalogue, of said objects. He will present fabulous photos of galaxies, remnants of super novae (exploding stars), stellar nurseries where stars are born and planetary

nebulae, taken using the famous Hubble telescope. The photo shown is of a spiralled galaxy named M66 and is 35 million light years away. In other words we are seeing it, as it was, 35 million years ago, quite a mind boggling concept. Guests are always welcome to our talks so why not come along. Park on Matlock Street or in the Market Square and walk up Chapel Lane by the side of the Methodist chapel opposite the Co-op garage. Visit the BBSG web site at www.bakewellbirdstudygrou p.org.uk for further information.

The Piattis are amongst the UK’s foremost young string quartets, with a host of awards. They have performed in all the major venues around the country, including a live BBC broadcast from the Wigmore Hall. They have appeared in Australia, Spain, Austria, France, Switzerland and Holland. They have recorded CDs for Linn Records and the Classical and Champs Hill labels. The Matlock concert will feature Schumann’s Quartet, Opus 41, no.3, Ades Quartet no.1, ‘Arcadia’ and Schubert‘s haunting, beautiful and monumental Quartet no.4, ‘Death and the Maiden’. Two recent concert reviews reported that “this youthful quartet treated us to one of the most spirited and engaging performances I have ever experienced” and “the applause was exuberant, with thunders of foot-stamping – a true tour de force from this highly talented group.” The concert is on Friday 9 May at the Wheeldon Hall, Highfields School, Lumsdale,

EASTER FUN IN BIRCHOVER

LIVE MUSIC IN BASLOW

St Anne’s Church, Baslow is the venue for a concert on Saturday 28 June, presented by Baslow-based baroque violinist Lara James, cellist Tim Smedley and harpsichordist Katharine May. The group, known as Sospirante, specialise in period performance and play on historical instruments. This is Sospirante’s fourth annual concert in Baslow, and the programme will include some of the most beautiful music written for this combination by baroque composers such as Bach, Corelli, Vivaldi and Handel. All three musicians have performed internationally. Lara gained a first-class BA Hons and a PhD in German and Music from Bristol University before studying baroque violin at The Royal Conservatory, The Hague. She has played with some of the world’s leading period orchestras including theAcademy ofAncient Music, the English Concert, La Serenissima, the Avison Ensemble and the Hanover Band. Katharine May studied the harpsichord at the Royal

BIGGIN HALL COUNTRY HOUSE HOTEL BIGGIN BY HARTINGTON

College of Music in London and at theAccademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena. Her career has benefited from awards given by several trust funds, and she is particularly grateful to the Countess of Munster Musical Trust for enabling her to own a copy of a twomanual harpsichord, originally built by Henri Hemsch in 1756. She will be performing on this instrument in Baslow. Tim Smedley attended Chethams School of Music before studying with Hannah Roberts at the Royal Northern College of Music. Now based in Sheffield, Tim performs regularly with The King’s Consort, Yorkshire Baroque Soloist, the Academy of Ancient Music and the Gabrieli Consort. He has also played with the Sixteen, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment and the English Concert. Previous concerts in Baslow have played to a full church. The concert on 28 June begins at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £10/£5 for students/under 18s and can be reserved in advance on 01246 583224.

graze, they will soon be released like a miniature stampede of stretching limbs and playful pent up excitement. Cattle that have overwintered indoors are now beginning to appear all over the Peak District hills in the continuing cycle of farming life. The view across to Hartington from this ridge is all encompassing, with St Giles dominating the centre of the village, but set on a rise above the former market place. Hartington’s market charter was granted to Earl Ferrers in 1203 and is one of the oldest on record in the Peak District, earlier even than Chesterfield which acquired its charter a year later. After dropping down to walk through riverside meadows I crossed a footbridge back into Derbyshire to return to Hartington, past the sadly redundant buildings of the old cheese factory. The duck pond in the centre of the village looked like a bowl of pea green soup bathed in a golden glow as the sun was rapidly disappearing to slumber behind Sheen Hill. The sound of revelry and enjoyment filled the air, coming mainly from the Devonshire Arms and Charles Cotton hostelries where the beer gardens and outside seating were full with patrons wanting to make the most of a nice evening. I could think of no better way to unwind from my walk than to swig down a half pint of shandy made with local real ale and to scoff on a packet of crisps before heading back home to write up my exploits, and so I headed off to join in.

to have had a church as early as 1185. The oldest grave slab reputedly dates back to 1200. However, this earlier building was destroyed at the time of the dissolution of the monasteries but was rebuilt in 1552 and then rebuilt again between 1828 and 1832 by Berresford Hope, to a design of William Butterfield. Some of the fascinating but grotesque gargoyles date back to medieval times. Unlike the limestone houses of Hartington, Sheen’s dwellings appear much darker and somewhat sombre. Standing high on a ridge, they are certainly more exposed to the elements and must get whipped by strong winds and lashed by snow in winter. Sheen has long since been famous for its tug-of-war teams. The ladies’ team featured last November in an episode of ‘Off the Beaten Track’ when Christine Bleakly rolled up her sleeves and courageously had a go. Turning left at a Youth Hostel sign, I followed the bridlepath post to walk through a farmyard and along a section of concrete lined track to the edge of the ridge and then a hollowed away zigzag path that led me back down to the river. I passed farm sheds where curious calves peeped out to watch my passing. Still housed in their winter shelters until any risk of freezing weather has gone and when the fields of pasture are full of nutritious new growth f o r them to

fought to defend the north from rebels. Fighting reputedly took place in both Derbyshire and Staffordshire. Pilsbury Castle, which is one of the finest examples in the country, was erected as a stronghold. It was only ever of timber construction and probably survived until the 14th century. In the far distance, my eyes were constantly being drawn to the jagged peaks of reef knoll hills where the ‘Sleeping Dragon’ slumbers. In shadow they looked dark grey and foreboding. My route took me over the Dove on a narrow footbridge beside a ford and then I ascended an old track between golden gorse bushes that radiated light and blackthorn currently displaying a burst of delicate snow-like blossom. Tucked away in the shadows down to my right I caught a glimpse of Broad Meadow Hall with mullioned windows, appearing like an old manor house. Built in the 17th century, it is thought to replace an earlier house on that site. Topped with a trig point, Sheen Hill at 1,247 feet appeared above me like a gritstone tor in stark contrast to the rolling limestone slopes behind me on the Derbyshire side of the valley. Now I was walking on the fringe of Staffordshire Moorlands as I passed through fields and stiles to Sheen, admiring as I went, magnificent far reaching views. I had a waymarker to guide me – the tiny copper spire of Sheen Church is a shiny little pyramid of bright green. Sheen is first known

Daylight hours are getting longer and it’s now possible to fit in a walk after tea, especially enjoyable at the end of a sunny day when a honey coloured glow illuminates our spectacular Peak District landscape. So it was that I set off from Hartington one glorious evening, along the quiet gated road to Pilsbury. Hartington was recovering from a busy Bank Holiday Saturday, so by the time I arrived, most of the visitors had left and, as I began my hike at a jaunty pace, I passed weary stragglers returning to their cars, ready to set off for home. In peaceful tranquillity I wandered along enjoying quality time for quiet contemplation. Swallows flitted overhead, a family of rabbits scampered about on a grassy bank, whilst in every direction there were fluffy white blobs as far I could see. These hills have resounded to the baaing of sheep and lambs for thousands of years! This glorious valley, with the Dove meandering sedately through, is very traditional and unspoilt. Field barns dot the landscape as well as old farms that appear to snuggle into the hills. I came to Pilsbury which is a tiny hamlet consisting of a handful of character properties and the ancient earthworks of Pilsbury Castle. The Norman remains of a motte and bailey castle are thought to date back to the 11th century, constructed following an uprising when William the Conqueror successfully
