The New Rector Dear Friends This is a belated hello from me. I’m Mandy Cartwright and I’m the rector of the East Trent Group. That means I’m the Church of England Priest responsible for the villages from Thorney down to Winthorpe, between the River Trent and Lincolnshire. I live in Collingham and I’ve been in post since December 2016, so I’m finding my way around quite well and I’m enjoying being in such a beautiful part of the world, joining in church and community life and meeting so many good people. I was born and grew up in Nottingham and my last churches were in Bilborough and Strelley, on Nottingham outer-city estates. To be honest, when I knew it was time for me to move, I assumed I’d be going to another town situation, but God is full of surprises and following a series of ‘chance’ meetings and conversations, the idea of East Trent caught my interest and filled me with excitement. This all began in May 2016 and I got so much help and encouragement from David Picken, Archdeacon of Nottingham, representatives of all the churches and the Lord Chancellor’s representative that I

felt confident that this was the right move which God was calling me to.
Thorney, Harby and Wigsley Voluntary Car Scheme
We do have eleven beautiful church buildings in our group but buildings are nothing without people. Thank God we have wonderful, dedicated people who make sure that God is worshiped regularly in our buildings and that they are available for private prayer and important life events such as christenings, weddings and funerals. I love meeting people, so please say hello to me whenever you can, follow what the churches are doing and join in. This is how you can keep in touch: My address is: 1 Vicarage Close Collingham Newark NG23 7PQ Email: revdmand@hotmail.com Telephone: 01636 361 657 Website: www.easttrentchurches.org.uk Facebook: East Trent Churches God bless you Revd Mandy
The car scheme is now up and running and thanks to all of you who have already registered as either a volunteer driver or potential user. Our aim is to provide a community transport service in the villages of Thorney, Harby, Wigsley and surrounding villages (N & S Clifton and Spalford) to enable adult residents to access a range of activities during the day or evenings. In the past this service was restricted to provide transport to and from medical appointments but we are now keen that this is extended to include access for shopping trips or social and leisure activities as well. Living in a rural area means we are all heavily reliant on our own transport but what if it breaks down or is in for a repair for a couple of days? If you are registered as a member of our car scheme this gives you another possible transport option. Registration is FREE and all you need to do is phone the co-ordinator, Clare Welfare, and provide brief contact

Fenton Pinfold Kettlethorpe, Fenton and Laughterton were enclosed in 1767, this meant that instead of there being several large fields that were divided into many small strips - with the locals having strips dotted all over the parish, land was now divided into separate fields, much as we see them today. Prior to enclosure there were strict rules about grazing, parishioners were told when they could turn their beast and sheep out and numbers were controlled to make sure

When Theobald died the king asked him to become archbishop, a job he accepted in 1162. Henry II spent much of his life in France and Ireland fighting wars and expected to raise money, arms and soldiers from England. He did not like the power that the church had in England. The church owned huge areas of land and was very wealthy and he tried to limit its power. Thomas stoutly refused to agree and became progressively more religious, even wearing a hair shirt. Henry II found Thomas such a nuisance that in a thoughtless moment he asked was there no one who would ‘get rid of this tiresome priest’? Four of the king’s knights heard this, took this at face value, and one of these knights murdered Thomas as he prayed at the altar in Canterbury Cathedral.

We took a detour to the left into the low-lying field and then a right out of the field and into the fields in front of the hall. From the top of the ridge back to the hall was about a mile. Above the hall was a dell with large stands of snowdrops and aconites, although the latter were past their best. In all the walk was short; about 3 miles. It seemed to be enjoyed by all. We then went to the church where Eddy and his wife Brenda were awaiting us. Brenda provided refreshments for us and was very attentive. Eddy gave an excellent talk about the fascinating history of the church and also some details about the hall. He also showed us the wonderful silver collection and regaled us with its intriguing history. For a small church in a fairly remote location it has a long and fascinating history.
