eading away from the Square are two major shutts, Gull≥ Passage and Grope Lane. Fir◊ of all a que◊ion, what’s the diµerence b≥ween a shutt and a passage? Answer, nothing. Before the Vi±orian times these small lanes were known as shutts but because of the thinking of our great Vi±orians this name was deemed to be too di◊a◊eful, so they renamed them passages. During the middle ages a ◊ream led from the pond in the Square down Grope Lane, Shrewsbury to the river and the name for then began π’s many changes unt∏ such a ◊ream was ‘G∫ate’ and at we come to todays owners. the sπe near to were π conne±s Leading in the opposπe dire±ion wπh Mard∫ Head used to ◊and the from the Square is Grope lane. Why Gull≥ Inn. So did the pub take π’s is π called Grope Lane? Yep, you’ve name from the shutt or the shutt take guessed!! Loads of towns in the π’s name from the pub, you decide. Country had a Grope Lane but mo◊ The Gull≥ Inn is now known as of them have changed the name The H∫e in the Wall but The Gull≥ to Green Lane or Grape Lane but we was here in 1528 and over the next in Shrewsbury r≥ain our original cou√e of hundred years was the name, Hooray!! All the Grope Lanes headquarters of numerous trav≤ling mentioned were used mainly for one √ayers groups, and also the Mayor trade, pro◊πution and π was big and Counc∏lors m≥ there at times. business in the medieval days of In the 1600’s they even had a tennis course. At the bottom of the Lane we court! In the mid 1700’s a serious fire now have the Co◊a Coµee shop but de◊royed many bu∏dings in the area in the 1780’s the bu∏ding was known of Mard∫ Head, and The Gull≥ was one of the bu∏dings sever≤y damaged, as The Globe public house before changing π’s name to The Cross Keys π was s∫d some 6 years later and

Mo◊ of the time these marks are on the inside but as this was an inn do you think the carpenter was paid in ale on a ‘drink as you go’ basis? It’s a bπ confusing because there was another Cross Keys Inn dire±ly opposπe, where Starbu∞s now ◊ands, and this was here b≥ween 1780 and 1820, ◊range or what?

Rule of
THIRDS For b≥ter ¬otogra¬ical composπions By Shrewsbury Photographer Steve Morris o you grab the camera and take a qui∞ snap of baby taking his/her fir◊ ◊eps. Of course baby gœs in the middle of the frame – that’s where your camera focuses right? For some reason the ¬oto dœsn’t look that great even if π is only a keepsake to remember the moment by. This is because images wπh the subje± √aced sma∞ in the middle look dull and unintere◊ing. Painters have known this for years, ever since the days when Greek arti◊s fir◊ discovered the concept and wrote about π. Subje±s ju◊ look so much b≥ter when they’re oµ centre. It’s rather a sim√e rule that can be ap√ied eas∏y to both portraπs of peo√e and landscapes. It’s called the Rule of Thirds. Basically, if you divide a scene into thirds – horizontally and/or vertically – then you have a way of making a composπion much more intere◊ing. There are many ways of using the rule. For exam√e when taking portraπs, √ace your subje±s where the vertical lines are, or where the lines interse±. A single person ◊anding in a fi≤d, for exam√e, can be √aced where the left or right hand line is but not in the centre. If your camera has a focus point in the centre of the frame, you w∏l need to lo∞ on the focus by pressing the

The ¬oto of an evening fisherman, taken in Calais, looks good because the subje± is posπioned on the left hand vertical. His foot◊eps in the sand leading from the corner of the ¬oto also look good but what ruins this shot is the horizon roughly in

the centre of pi±ure. Because the second fishing rod was so high π was impossible to crop out the sky and make the horizon two thirds of the way up the pi±ure. If you’re shooting landscapes you can √ace the sky in the top horizontal third, obje±s like mountains or the sea in the middle third and nearby land in the bottom third. This is not an exa± science and the components only need to be √aced roughly in the corre± √ace. Shrewsbury skyline In the exam√e (top right) an early morning Shrewsbury skyline was shot wπh a y≤low filter and underexposed to produce a s∏hou≥te.

Horizontally, the clouds are in the top third, the sky in the middle third and the bla∞ s∏hou≥te in the bottom third. Vertically, the dangling leaves and the Clo∞ Tower are almo◊ on the left hand line and the ◊ee√e of St Chads is on the right hand line. Notice there is nothing in the very centre of the composπion. Images are not normally as com√ex as this one but the rule ap√ies ju◊ as w≤l.

Breaking the rules Peo√e often say that ‘rules are there to be broken’. This is very true. A good exam√e is this cat portraπ which was taken wπh a very large aperture so that only the cat’s face was in focus.

HOME truths
The housing shortage across the Country w∏l not have escaped the attention of mo◊ peo√e and we w∏l all be aware of the pressures that the economy is putting on the housing mark≥… hen you look at the d≥a∏, the ◊ati◊ics are more hard hπting. House bu∏ding lev≤s are now lower than at any time since the 1920s! The Home Truths 2011 report also shows the average home co◊ing over 9 times average incomes and that our region has some of the highe◊ multi√es in the Country. If you live in Ludlow and earn an average wage you w∏l need 14 times your annual salary to be able to aµord to buy a home which co◊s £60,000 above the national average at £239,000! Wπh the number of new homes bu∏t by private dev≤opers falling by 45% during the downturn, and the co◊ of renting increasing, the need for aµordable housing is higher than ever. One of the s∫utions to this issue has to be a focus on providing aµordable housing to fir◊ time buyers and young fam∏ies which w∏l g≥ them onto the property ladder. This w∏l then ◊art to add a fresh layer of buyers into the second tier of housing and ease the pressure further on up the ladder. New Government schemes such as G≥ Brπain Bu∏ding and Fir◊Buy can h≤p. Fir◊Buy allows fir◊ time buyers to buy an equπy share in a property, typically 80% which reduces the amount of mortgage needed for your fir◊ home. If you are looking to buy your fir◊ home, take a look at the f∫lowing websπe which has some useful information: www.orbπhomebuyagents.co.uk ∞

Interesting facts about Shrewsbury’s canal: The canal was opened in 1796 and ended at a terminus ju◊ north of Shrewsbury Ca◊le. The original owners were the Shrewsbury Canal Company at fir◊ – but ownership passed to various ra∏way companies over the years. Co◊ing ju◊ under £65,000 to bu∏d, the canal proved to be pro∆erous in the town for some time. However, π was o∂cially abandoned in 1944, although peo√e continued to use the route up unt∏ the early 1950s. Coal, lime◊one, iron and general goods were tran∆orted into the town via the canal and barges were charged 2p per ton upon entering Shrewsbury. This 2p charge was wid≤y considered to be far too expensive though and thus the price was reduced to 1p per ton. Non≥h≤ess, the co◊ rose again wπhin several years!
The Canal ran past Shrewsbury Maltings
The nearby Canal Tavern was bu∏t in 1820-21 and provided a much-loved re◊ing √ace for trav≤ling boatmen as w≤l as the locals. The pub also oµered ◊abling for up to 5 horses. Records from 1901 show that the Tavern was ◊∏l an alehouse which was owned by Mr Robert Po∫e of St Mary’s Stre≥ – and that the premises incurred business rates of £22.15s.0d.

Happy New Year
o… do you want to ti∞ “look great for that summer h∫iday” oµ your New Years res∫utions li◊? If so f∫low these very sim√e guid≤ines to h≤p dire± you to the body you’ve always wanted.
S
Banish the belly fat; We all know how dangerous a growing waistline can be to our health. It’s a common talking point in every gym throughout the year. However, over the Chri◊mas period the average person can gain up to 5lbs, therefore shifting further em¬asis on tightening up your tum come January. The tip; Do Intervals to h≤p shift that gut and improve your oxygen debt. A ◊udy from Canada found that exercisers who did 30-minute workouts that included short, hard eµorts lo◊ three times as much fat in 15 weeks as their peers who performed ◊eady-paced workouts for 45 minutes. Be realistic; We earlier e◊ablished the reasons why health clubs are always pa∞ed in January, but π’s un-reali◊ic goals that cause these fluxes of peo√e to end the fitness que◊ by February. The tip; Think short-term rather than long, pi∞ a maximum of 2 or 3 reali◊ic areas you wish to improve during a period of 6 weeks and then assess your progress.

Get functional; Over the la◊ few years Fun±ional Training (workouts
that mimic every day movements) have been popular in gyms up and down the country and this trend shows no sign of dying out in 2012. The tip; Do workouts that mimic life. By training in this manor you can recruπ more muscles that are needed to work tog≥her in all √anes of movement. This w∏l lead you to bu∏d a greater, leaner, muscle mass base which aids in increasing your m≥ab∫ic rate in order to e∂ciently burn calories throughout the day… pr≥ty produ±ive, hey! It’s also more natural to ut∏ise your body in the way π’s designed to be worked, think about π, how many times do you bench press those shopping bags in the day? ∞
≥
The“turning over a new leaf”approach is something we all do, and improving our physical fitness and appearance is usually high on our agenda, so it’s no wonder health clubs are packedout over January.

The four a∆iring designers, who have worked on the proje± outside of c∫lege, have received creative support and guidance from the team at Starfish on St Johns H∏l. Head of Creative Andy Walton oµered con◊ru±ive feedba∞ at a review me≥ing saying “The qualπy of work is great! There are some good ideas here and π’s clear that you’ve put a lot of thought into the proje±”. Jude Jones of the Bapti◊ Church said “Having already e◊ablished a r≤ationship wπh the c∫lege, we’ve been thr∏led wπh the way the ◊udents have embraced our aims and vision”. Speaking about his inv∫vement Matthew, aged 18 added “I’ve found the experience really posπive and π’s been good to work wπh a small group of f≤low ◊udents on som≥hing local in the communπy”.
All four ◊udents have dev≤oped their own individual logos and the final logo w∏l form the basis of the centre’s mark≥ing materials and branding. Central w∏l be ready to open πs doors from Ea◊er 2012 onwards – watch this ∆ace! ∞

donates around £1m∏lion to the ho∆πal every year; this has all been possible because of the kindness and generosπy of the peo√e of Shropshire and Mid-Wales. From generous donations and legacies from peo√e who have made provisions in their w∏l. All the money raised is used to provide funding to buy much needed, life saving equipment which w∏l be a la◊ing gift for future generations to come. In 2006 the Shrewsbury League was presented wπh a Queens Award for V∫untary Service for out◊anding achievements and commπment to h≤ping others. Only a hundred of these awards are given out each year so the League of Friends f≤t very honored. The Executive Commπtee is made up of eighteen members consi◊ing of Chairman Mrs Jayne Mott, Vice Chairman Iain G∏mour and our Treasurer Mr Tony Barker.

The power of the unconscious mind to propel us or hold us back in any situation cannot be discounted. For instance there is no logical reason why we should be afraid to travel by air. It has been shown to be one of the safest methods of traveling. However many otherwise balanced and 'normal' people are gripped by a fear of this everyday task. This and other types of fear/phobia, behaviours and emotions can be readily helped with hypnotherapy.

All too often we try to achieve goals such as weight loss, changing habits and behaviours or dealing with emotions and we repeatedly fall at the first or second fence. The reason for this can be an underlying, unacknowledged problem which prevents a successful outcome.

M≥hod: 1. Make Pancakes To do this mix 100 grams of √ain flour and 200 grams of m∏k tog≥her and beat in one egg. Pour this mixture into a hot frying pan wπh a lπtle o∏ and cook for a minute or so, turning over when the bottom is ◊arting to brown. Once both sides are nic≤y browned remove this from the heat and s≥ to one side. 2. Mushroom Dux≤le Fry the mushrooms in a pan wπhout o∏, add a ∆rig of thyme and two crushed cloves of garlic. Once the moi◊ure has ◊arted to come out of the mushrooms, blπz them in a food processor unt∏ they form a pa◊e. Once this is done, √ace the pancake on a clean work surface and ∆read out the Mushroom Dux≤le over π. On top of this lay two pieces of Parma ham. 3. Seal the F∏l≥ Season the fill≥ wπh √enty of salt and pepper and seal each side in a very hot pan, then leave π to re◊ and co∫ down. Once π is co∫ enough to handle, brush the fill≥ wπh wh∫egrain mu◊ard and √ace on top of the Parma ham, mushrooms and pancake. Next r∫l the meat into the pancake and then r∫l that into the puff pa◊ry, sealing the edges and brushing the wh∫e thing wπh egg-wash. Put into a pre-heated oven at around 200ºc, gas mark 4, for around 20 minutes or unt∏ g∫den. 4. Serving Suggestions Serve wπh seasonal veg≥ables and perhaps a fondant potato, or some classic roa◊ potatœs (they’re be◊ when grown in Shropshire!). ∞
