have been trying to find information regarding the railway station at Torksey as a former member of our family was Station Master during the 1870s, there does not appear to be a lot of information I can find. I wondered if any of your readers may be able to help. Mr J D Matthews Hertford Herts If you can help Mr Matthews please contact Sue Oliver, contact details on the inside front page.

would like to thank First Responder Mark from Laughterton for attending me in the early hours of Thursday morning while awaiting the ambulance.
have just discovered your magazine online. I now live on Crete. I was interested in the article on Torksey, my parents grew up there. My father’s family Matthews ran the village shop for many years ”Turnbull and Matthews” My mother and her mother moved to Torksey in 1938. My grandmother was a teacher at the school from 1938-1967 her name was Mrs Ethel Harrison (sadly she had been widowed in 1933). She later remarried and became Mrs Skelton. No doubt there are still a few people who remember her. My parents now live in Devon and they would love to see a copy of the Torksey edition.

I read the piece you wrote on your website about John Paul Woodhouse Ward. I knew him as Mr Ward when he lived in Kano, Nigeria working for my uncle's civil engineering firm Diyam Consultants.
Thanks
He was a wonderful person and I have fond memories of his stay in Kano. Please say hello to him and wish him well from me and from all members of the Iliasu family.

News from the Trentside Villages Ofsted Praise for Newton on Trent
Our Trentside Links Will Travel
Newton on Trent Church of England Primary School had a visit from Ofsted just before half term and the report that is due to be published soon, praises many aspects of the school and its provision. In the opening paragraph of the main findings it says:
We have been amazed by how far the Trentside Links reaches, with people contacting us from Nigeria, Canada, Crete, Australia, Cambridge and Hertford but to be fair most of these people have read our magazine online through our website.
‘Pupils enjoy school and learning. They feel very safe and secure and appreciate the warm, supportive environment and the good care and guidance they receive from staff. Pupils’ good behaviour and positive attitudes contribute well to their learning. Pupils make strong contributions to the school and the
• • • • • • •
much good teaching improved attendance support based on strong Christian values pupils’ progress that is accelerating quickly that the school is an inclusive and cohesive community teaching assistants provide well- targeted support children settle to tasks quickly and can work independently
This report is very positive and encouraging and if you have a child who is due to start school in 2012 or 2013, please come and join us on Wednesday 16th November from 8.30am – 10.00am to come and see us in action. wider community and they are proud of their school. Parents and carers value the school a great deal, particularly the ‘family atmosphere’ and they are very appreciative of recent improvements.’ The report, while recognising there are improvements to be made, goes on to mention:
So, we were surprised when we received a phone call from an Ivy Stevenson from Barnsley whose son read the magazine while in a waiting room at Hallamshire Hospital in Sheffield. It was a copy from last November and he took it back to Ivy because it had an article on Laughterton. Ivy recalls how she and her family used to travel to Laughterton to pick eggs in Mill Lane (now known as Marsh Lane) at the farm with the windmill. So has anyone else seen our beloved magazine away from the Trentside area? Why not take your magazine on holiday and send us a photo and we'll publish the best ones!
Success for McMillan Fundraising Thank you for your advert for Marton’s 'Macmillan Coffee Morning' on the 29th September 2011, you did us proud! We had a great day, people came from all over to support us. We had a huge cake stall, bric-a-brac, raffle, tombola and a card reader, Bev. We had an auction, with Keith Worrall as an excellent auctioneer, which managed to raise £200. Also on the day we had a ladies' group, Chouette, who played medieval and baroque music. The day was a great success so a big thank you to everyone who supported us and a special thanks to everyone who helped on the day, we raised a very respectable £907. Angela Harrison

Kettlethorpe Village Hall News - A Big Thank You
Local Swimmer Shortlisted for Sports Awards
We are currently awaiting replies for grants to complete the renovation of the village hall. To obtain these grants it is necessary to show the involvement of voluntary support from residents of the parish, as well as the voluntary involvement of the committee members. We are very grateful for the support we received from two residents, namely Richard Wright and Richard Elliott, also our committee members involved in clearing the car park, cleaning out the guttering and removing detrimental ivy from the brickwork, not forgetting the excellent work of our cleaner. This was all carried out before the visit of a representative from the WREN charity.
Congratulations to Hayley Williams, a swimmer from Newton on Trent who has been nominated for Young Sportswoman of the Year. Hayley is amongst eleven people from Lincoln and the surrounding areas who have been shortlisted for awards at the Lincolnshire Sports Awards 2011. The Lincolnshire Sports Awards is an annual event organised by Lincolnshire Sports Partnership to recognise sportsmen and women across the county in sport and physical activity. The winners will be announced at the awards evening on Thursday 17th November 2011 at the Epic Centre at the Lincolnshire Showground. For further information about the Lincolnshire Sports Partnership, please contact:
We have applied for a grant to enable us to install necessary ventilation in the hall and also ceiling fans to eradicate the problem of mould.

A New Era at Saxilby School My name is Catherine Paine and I am the new Executive Headteacher at Saxilby Church of England Primary School. As well as working at this school, I am also Executive Headteacher at Mount Street Academy (formerly Mount Street Infant and Nursery School) in Lincoln, where I have worked for eight years. Before that I was Headteacher at The Usher Junior School, also in Lincoln. I have been given a warm welcome in the village and am enjoying the challenge of moving the school into a period of success and pride in itself. Apart from the professional challenge, it means the world to me to be here because I lived in Saxilby as a child and attended the school from 1980-1981. My brother (now a Philosophy lecturer at Oxford University) and both sisters (one who is the new Headteacher in Sturton by Stow from January 2012, and the other an Assistant Headteacher at an outstanding school in London) also went to the school, so there is a great family history here. Standing in the hall leading collective worship with the staff and children is particularly meaningful to me
because it was in the very same hall aged 11, that I made up my mind that I wanted to be a Headteacher. My work in the school is as part of a super team. When people ask how I manage to lead two schools, the answer is simple: "I don't do so on my own!". Every day that I am at Mount Street, either Rachael Eastham or Marie-Claire Bretherton (both now called Associate Headteachers) are in charge at Saxilby, and vice versa. Along with Debra Moore, the School Business Director and the rest of the staff, we are a strong team, communicating constantly to ensure that there is a seamless experience for the parents, children and staff. We have started the term with great enthusiasm and adopted a new tag-line for the school which you will soon see on two new school signs that have been ordered for the school gates. The words "Time to shine" have come to embody everything that we are about: the children only have one chance at school so it has to be their "time to shine" - as successful learners, happy individuals and as responsible citizens. That is my mission and I'm not going to rest until every boy and girl is making good progress and

enjoying their time at school the way that they deserve to. There are big priorities ahead: a new website, improved teaching and learning, higher attendance, more experiences for parents to share in the life of the school and be welcomed as "partners in learning", a new perimeter fence to make the school site safer for the children and in line with the legal requirements, a new look to parents' evening, as well as continued strong links with the church through celebration of the school's distinctive Church ethos. One of the things which parents are most enjoying is being able to share a celebration assembly every Friday called "SHINE". The children are so proud to see their mums and dads smiling at them every week! We look ahead with enthusiasm to the coming year and with trust, justice, faith and hope we are certain that it will be Saxilby's time to shine. Thank you to the Local Authority and school governors for inviting me to contribute to this journey. Catherine Paine

Torksey Lock An area of rich history and VIP visitors
T
orksey Lock is the point where the tidal River Trent meets the Fossdyke Navigation and it is a popular mooring spot for boaters. Built by the Romans, the Fossdyke has a strong claim to be Britain's oldest canal. It flows through almost entirely rural scenery for 11 miles from the River Trent to Lincoln, where it links with the River Witham and ultimately the Wash at Boston. Torksey Lock is home to a visitor centre which contains interpretation panels, interactive games and a fully working model of the lock complete with water & meeting room. There is also a tea room and outside seating area and a listening post. The centre was funded by the Lincolnshire Waterways Partnership, which is made up of British Waterways, Lincolnshire County Council and the Environment Agency.
6
The Waters of Time Take a few minutes to travel back in time - about 2000 years. The Romans were at Torksey Lock building the Fossdyke canal which is probably England's oldest man-made waterway. Why did they build it? The most likely reason was for transporting goods such as salted lamb to Lincoln. Imagine doing all that work without the aid of diggers and dumper trucks! After the Romans left, the Fossdyke slowly silted up until, in 1121, Henry I ordered the canal to be cleaned out and made good - was this Britain's first ever canal restoration? The fortunes of the navigation went up and down for several hundred years. In 1620, after nearly 500 years of Royal ownership (and neglect), James I gave the canal to Lincoln City and relieved the Crown of a huge financial liability.
In 1671 another big maintenance programme was carried out but 60 years later the waterway was almost impassable again. In 1741 a Sheffield banker Richard Ellison leased the canal from Lincoln City and spent three years restoring it. The canal was back in business, mainly carrying agricultural produce from Lincolnshire to the Midlands and beyond. The arrival of steam-powered packet boats in 1817 saw the first serious passenger transport on the canal. Cargo and passenger boats did quite a good

trade for a few years but again, the canal was being neglected until, after heavy rain, it sometimes flooded. There is one story of a steam packet being dragged off into the neighbouring countryside during a flood! The fortunes of the Fossdyke canal continued reasonably well until the railways arrived. The Great Northern Railway took over the lease of the Fossdyke, while it built the railway beside it. Once the railway was complete less and less was carried on the waterway.

VIP Visit to Torksey Lock In the spring of 1833 the then proprietors of the Fossdyke Navigation asked a very famous, and I think our greatest, engineer to do a survey of their navigation. This was Isambard Kingdom Brunel and the reason for this was criticism levelled by the boat owners. So Brunel travelled to Lincoln and set to work on the project. He travelled by packet boat up the Fossdyke to Trent Lock at Torksey and then down the Witham taking soundings from which he prepared cross-sections of the channel. He then took a loaded boat from Torksey drawn by two horses and had little difficulty until he entered the River Witham. The keel of the boat stuck fast at High Bridge and the boat then had to be dragged through with the windlass. After a stay of four days Brunel returned to London, but not until he had looked

Images of Torksey Lock
These images show the pumping station that used to pump water from the Torksey Suction Drain into the River Trent. This was important to keep the water levels on farmland just right. There once stood a chimney that was part of the pumping station but it no longer stands. Also pictured is Harry Heath (sat on his model train!) who ran the pumping station around the 1950s. Mrs Heath is also pictured here working at Rose Brothers in Gainsborough. The picture below shows some of the pumping station workers on the waters edge.

Request from Marton Primary School
O
n 10th September the Sponsored Stride and Ride took place. I took part in aid of Kettlethorpe church and the Lincolnshire Old Churches Trust. As a new challenge I set out to visit every church and chapel in Christianity in the eight hours of the event, and do it on foot! Most people thought it an impossible challenge until I explained that the deanery that encompasses the the city of Lincoln is called Christianity! I visited 33 churches and chapels and estimate that I walked over 20 miles. Thanks to the generous support of many sponsors I raised £430, much of which will also attract Gift Aid.

Marton Garden & Produce Show 2011 It was the second year for the event held on Sunday 25th September and although the weather wasn’t so good there was still a good turnout. The aim of the produce and garden show is to be open to everyone in Marton, Gate Burton and Knaith. People of all abilities and ages can take part in a variety of competition classes such as photography, Victoria sponge baking, flower arranging, vegetable growing, handmade greeting cards and of course making a scarecrow. Scarecrows were judged and could be viewed around the village. Winners of both the children’s and adults' scarecrows chose the theme of Wallace and Gromit and were both very amusing! There were many other very good entries including a girl and boy scarecrow entered by the children from Marton School and a singing Elvis! Check out some of the pictures for yourself. The produce and craft entries were on display in the village hall from 2pm where winners were presented with trophies and certificates. There were many trophies awarded and the organisers hope to extend the trophies on offer next year. Refreshments were available and visitors enjoyed the delicious cakes on offer, the proceeds of which will be donated to the Macmillan Cancer Trust and Shelter.

Reports from the Kettlethorpe and District Women's Institute September The President has received a letter from the Mental Health Association Lincoln, to say our help is needed even more than ever this year owing to cuts, and asks that as usual, we label our gifts as for male/ female. It is decided we bring the presents to the November meeting for distribution as usual. On 31October between 10-4pm there will be a cardmaking session. Bring a packed lunch, but no materials needed. These will be included in the £10 fee. Members are invited to the Upton and Kexby meeting on Monday October 24 to hear David Barby speak about his life in antiques. The meeting is at 7.30pm and will cost £5. With regard to our protest regarding closure of some libraries, postcards for protest will be obtained by the President for the next meeting. New subscription for 2012 will be £31.50. Our speaker was Dr Sally Moorcroft, who qualified as a medical practitioner but subsequently decided to use her knowledge in the field of herbal medicine. Her course had such good results it enthused her to take up herbal medicine fully. Dr Moorcroft brought many preparations such as tinctures, which she explained, passing round the plants from which they were made and naming the illnesses which were, in the old days cured or relieved by them. Herbs have been around for thousands of years,
16
in fact during past centuries they were the only cure-all known for most people. There were so many simple plants and flowers which could be collected from woods and fields. After printing was invented in English, and travel grew, more was learned from other countries too. So whether it was foxglove for dropsy, meadow bark for indigestion, or dozens of others, plants which gave no side-effects when made up correctly, people, in particular the poor, could keep moderately healthy, if not by any use of the knife. Up to the Second World War these herbs were used regularly. After this antibiotics and other discoveries took over and many people decided herbs were unnecessary - though nowadays the world is beginning to think again! Certainly there was a crowd around the show table Dr Moorcroft had brought after she had finished. The competition for an old family remedy was won by Pat Green with Elise Hawker second. Raffle prizes were taken home by Violet Williamson, Audrey Payne, Margaret Barrett, Ann Close, Yvonne Redgrove, Doreen Wright and Kay Payne. Here's looking forward to the Annual Dinner ladies - October 13 at 6.45pm!
October Our Annual Dinner was held early in the month, well-attended by over forty members (it's difficult to count women when they are hardly ever all sitting down at one time). The committee prepared and served our meal which as ever was appetising and much appreciated. Afterwards we were entertained by Starlight Variety, a local group of artistes who are working for cancer charities.
At the monthly meeting a week later the President reported that all who took part enjoyed the recent craft day, and that our car boot sale in Little London had been quite successful. Half the items collected had been sold (the others are being lodged until a worthy husband can encourage us to hold another). The amount raised, together with a donation, was £100. The President also read out a letter from our MP Mr Edward Leigh, replying to our concern about the National Policy for Planning, with reference to rural areas. She reminded members again that any presents for the Lincoln Mental Health patients at Christmas should be brought to the November meeting. This month's speaker was Lynda Hotchkiss who spoke about family history - not the active way by using computers and such but through drifting into it from assessment of one's own family and taking it from there. She used photos, diaries, the public offices for Probate and even an old dish taken from a china cabinet having someone else's family name inscribed on it. I couldn't help wondering how much more difficult it might have been for a family living in many far off places. There was a competition for an old family photograph afterwards. I was delighted my dear mother in her youth came out first, Pat Green and Ann Close were second and third. The raffles were augmented by plants which Wendy Barnard, Mary Broadbent, Pat Brown, Sarah Clark, Christine Copley, Christine Fogg, Jackie Gee, Gill Kyme, Kath Hosta, Toni Richardson, Nancy Price and Dorothy Yardley took home.

Photo update In the Gate Burton edition of Trentside Links (Issue 153, May 2010) we featured a picture of children from the Gate Burton area. Some names were unknown and the exact nature of the award was unclear so we put an appeal out to readers. Well we are pleased to say that a reader from Gainsborough passed the picture on to Mr Edwin Cheetham who is in the picture and was able to update us and we have also updated the picture legend.

I
can add a few comments about the picture that you sent to Margaret.
Dennis and Colin Fenwick - both farmer’s sons, farmed at the bottom of Knaith Hill. Barbara Talbot lived halfway up Knaith Hill, Harry Carr lived at the top of Knaith Hill next door to myself and my brother. The photo was, I think, from 1938; the occasion was the West Lindsey Musical Festival held that year in the Town Hall, Gainsborough. The group comprised most of the children in the school, whose ages ranged from five to fourteen, with generally only one teacher, Mrs Torr, who came to school from Gainsborough on her motorcycle each day. We were all in the one classroom, our morning milk came from Denby's farm, next door. I left the area in 1941, but I did meet up with Harry Fisher again in 1950 when we both worked in the Drawing Office at Marshall Sons and Co Ltd, Gainsborough. But to go back to the Musical Festival, Mrs Sanders at Gate Burton Hall took a lot of interest in the Gate Burton School and she was present at the Musical Festival and she very kindly took all us children to lunch at Hiley's Restaurant, (this was destroyed during the war) most of us had never been to a restaurant like that before and it was the highlight of my day rather than our success in the Musical Festival. I hope my comments will help and if I can be of any further assistance please let me know. Regards, Edwin Cheetham

The Flower for Peace The poppy knew it was never going to be aristocratic. Years of turning up in farmers’ fields by easy distribution had spread the word that it would never be a cherished embellishment in the gardens of stately homes or floral displays. It was however a sanguine flower, happy enough to have its day, knowing its roots were strong and its soft red petals gracefully slender. Summers were lovely when the lark flew high and children played around them but even they preferred to take home limpid bluebells or the fragile buttercups. One or two poppies had even heard themselves described as weeds - a terrible experience for any flower, but then it was also rumoured they had been painted by famous men and hung in the galleries of cities, which made them feel a lot better. Then there was war in our land and others. So many men were lost both here and in Europe, that for years afterwards a generation of women were unlikely to find husbands, and those who had them turned into widows. When, at the end of that war it was decided to make a permanent reminder of the sacrifices - guess what? The poppies had been
chosen as the flower to commemorate both grief and peace. They were wanted everywhere, but the wonder of it all must have been tempered by concern because of the month chosen for remembrance. Their blooming would be long past; they would have to be made by human hands. That was all a long time ago, the poppies have learnt to live alongside their replicas. They have the right to be proud because they are now set to be immortal, connected forever with hearts and minds. They cannot know that in the fields of France they still decorate the meadows where soldiers fell, inspiring the start of it all. Every year poppies flourish where combine harvesters and chemicals allow nature to spread; indeed some gardeners think they are too prolific, when suddenly they appear among the early roses claiming a right to be seen. This is a rare success story not reserved for the grafted hothouse plants. What greater glory for a flower than to be released over a capital city from a veteran aeroplane showering thousands of people in November, or from the dome of the Royal Albert Hall during the most solemn moments of remembrance. Yet still they are wild and free, returning every summer to play in the light before a late transformation to dispel dark memories. Perhaps a symbol for the humble and natural in our lives.

Gainsborough Rural South
Neighbourhood Policing Team Hello Dear Reader! I am PC 1367 Ian Cotton and I will be trying to fill the considerable shoes of PC 326 Martin Doherty for the next few months. Although younger and more attractive I don’t have quite as much experience in the job as ‘Docs’. I have recently been the Neighbourhood Beat Manager for the ‘Gainsborough Rural North’ patch, which includes the villages of Scotter, Blyton and Morton. Previous to that I worked in the Welton and Hemswell area. I’ve been in Neighbourhood Policing for five years and have been in Lincolnshire Police for eight years. It’s the time of year when the temperatures start to plunge and the nights have drawn in. Christmas is approaching and this brings its own issues in terms of crime and crime prevention. This month we’ll have a look at this. First thing to make sure of is that your vehicle is roadworthy and ready for the winter conditions. Check the tyres, remember that the legal tread depth for the tyre is 1.6mm. However, during the winter it would be good idea to make sure you have as much tread as possible. There are also winter tyres available in most good garages and some bad ones as well. Make sure that your washer bottle is topped up and has the correct amount of screen wash mixed in with the water and that you have some de-icer available for use in the car.

Please don’t try to drive before the windscreen is fully defrosted. A gap in the frost on the windscreen the size of a 10p piece is not enough to get a good view of the road in front and around you! I often see drivers wiping frantically at the inside of the windscreen trying to clear the fog, which has filled the small hole in the ice. For some reason they don’t seem too happy when I stop them and issue them with a ticket! It’s also a good idea to carry a shovel and a blanket in the boot. A hip flask of brandy or whisky, although tempting, is probably not the best idea!
November we will be holding a Police Surgery at Kexby Village Hall and don’t forget that every Wednesday morning between 10am and 12 noon there will be someone at Saxilby Police Station available for your policing needs! And finally.. it is with a heavy heart that we have to say goodbye to PCSO Sonia Lewis who is leaving us for pastures new. Sonia has built many links within this community and is a familiar face on the patch. She will be sorely missed and we wish Sonia, her ‘other half ’ Andy and the ‘little ‘un’ all the best and every success in their new surroundings. If anyone has any information with regards to a crime no matter how small, please call the Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) or alternatively if you would like to pass information anonymously please call Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.
I think that’s enough preaching about vehicles. There have been a number of thefts of ‘scrap’ metal, countywide recently. The very high price of metal makes this a lucrative pastime. Please report any suspicious vehicles in the area to Lincolnshire Police on 0300 111 0300 or contact your Neighbourhood Policing Team. A reminder of the upcoming police surgeries on the patch: On 5th November there will be a surgery at St Peter's Church, Newton on Trent between 11am and 12 noon. On the 10th November we will be at Torksey Lock Tea Room at 14:00. On the 19th November there will be tack marking at 10:30 hours at Bransby Home for Horses. On 28th
Your Neighbourhood Policing Team consists of PC 1367 Ian Cotton and PCSO Melanie Goodwill and can be contacted on the numbers below.
