Little Green Space Spring has arrived, and we recently spotted the first bumblebee and butterfly of the year in our wildlife garden. Bumblebees are often the first insects to emerge from hibernation in spring – sometimes as early as February, if we get a spell of warm weather – and by March or April they’re buzzing about, looking for food. Crocuses, grape hyacinths and other nectar-rich bulbs make a splendid breakfast for a hungry bee – and, just like the bees, many of us will be enjoying these colourful blooms in our gardens this month. Bees and bumblebees are vital for pollination of many crops – strawberries, apples, tomatoes and peas, for example. But British bumblebee populations are suffering, according to the Bumblebee Conservation Trust (www.bumblebee conservation.org), with two species becoming nationally

extinct and several others under serious threat. Without these amazing insects helping out on UK farms and smallholdings, the cost of some fruit and vegetables could rocket, as farmers are forced to find less cost-effective means of pollination. So it makes sense to do all we can to help our bees. Bumblebees love oldfashioned cottage garden flowers that are easy to grow and give striking splashes of colour in the garden. Foxgloves, sweet peas, honeysuckle and hollyhocks are all appealing. Bees are also particularly keen on purple flowers – they can see purple more easily than other colours, apparently – so including plants such as lavender, alliums and catmint in your garden should help to attract more bees. With a little planning, your garden could be a year-round feeding station for insect

pollinators – as well as a beautiful space for you to enjoy! Ethical eggs Easter is just around the corner, and many of the nation’s children (and adults) will have one thing on their minds: chocolate. Chocolate is not just for Easter, though, and some of us eat chocolate all year round. Buying Fairtrade chocolate is a great way to enjoy a treat that’s been ethically sourced – while making sure others benefit, too. The farmers that have produced the cocoa in Fairtrade chocolate have been paid a fair price for their goods. Their businesses are sustainable, because they have a stable, reliable income. And they have a better standard of living, in thriving communities with accessible facilities such as schools and clinics. Chocolate bearing the Fairtrade logo is easy to find. The Co-operative, Marks and Spencer, Cadbury’s Dairy Milk and Green and Blacks all offer a range of Fairtrade chocolate. Especially ethical is Divine. Not only do Divine cocoa farmers receive a fair price for their produce, but they also own shares in the company. The chocolate is made with Fairtrade cocoa beans from Kuapa Kokoo, a cooperative of 80,000 smallholder farmers in Ghana whose members receive a 45 per cent share of Divine’s profits – and this can

benefit whole communities. Divine Easter eggs are available in dark, milk and white chocolate – and the packaging is environmentally friendly, too. There’s no plastic, and the boxes are made with recycled cardboard, which can then be re-recycled after use. All in all, an extremely ethical egg! Local treats Another ethical way to buy chocolate is to buy local. Cocoadance is a small, familyrun chocolate factory near the Peak District town of Castleton. The chocolates are made in a converted barn, part of a National Trust farm, where owners Dave and Bridget create their mouth-watering chocolates using locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. With Easter looming, they’re

FUNNY FACES RAISE MONEY FOR CHARITY

Fish & Chip Takeaway Every Friday 5-9pm Comic Relief’s theme this year was “Make your Face Funny for Money” and Highfields School rose to the challenge. Students decorated their faces, wore red noses and created masks to bring a smile to what was otherwise a normal school day. Paying for the privilege of wearing nonschool uniform raised lots of money, as did cake sales. House points were awarded to the most creative masks, and students ran their own fundraising events at break and lunchtime which included a Mario Kart Wii Competition, face painting and selling red noses. Art teacher and house coordinator Lucy Hamrouge said,”We are always impressed with the generosity of our students

and the way they embrace fun ways of raising money for worthwhile causes. At this very busy time in the school year, with students working hard in the leadup to exams, they showed on Red Nose Day that they can still work hard and have fun at the same time.” Comic Relief made grants totalling over £300 million during 2009-2013, to help people living tough lives in the UK and around the world. Highfields School’s sixth formers also held their own charity fundraiser. Students organised a ‘Best of TV Game Shows’ event combining the formats of Would I Lie to You?, Mock the Week, Never Mind the Buzzcocks and Have I Got News For You and raised money through charging entry.

Voluntary Lifesavers in Cressbrook Seven volunteers from the village of Cressbrook have set up a new Community First Response (CFR) scheme. The volunteers have been trained by East Midlands Ambulance Service to attend 999 calls within a three-mile radius of the village. CFR’s play a vital role in saving lives; they attend life-threatening 999 calls in their local area and, by being so close, are able to arrive within minutes of the call for help being made. This means patients can be treated in those vital minutes whilst frontline paramedics travel to the scene. CFRs are trained in defibrillation and helping patients who

are suffering with problems such as strokes, breathing problems, chest pains, epileptic fits and diabetic problems. Schemes are selffunded and thanks to fund-raising efforts from the community, and a grant from the British Heart Foundation, the Cressbrook group has been able to purchase a defibrillator, medical kit bag and other essential items. Cressbrook is a beautiful village in the heart of the Derbyshire Peak District but it is quite isolated. Although the resident population is small, major hiking routes run close by

REGISTRATION OPENS FOR THE PEAK DISTRICT’S TOUGHEST CYCLE SPORTIVE The Peak District's most challenging cycle sportive has opened registration for the 2015 event. The Bradwell Hill Billy has been dubbed the Peak District’s Fred Whitton due to its touch seven hill route and 2,300m of ascent. Organised for the first time to raise money for the financially struggling village Pre-school in 2014, this event immediately established itself as one of the most challenging in the Cycle Sportive calendar. This second year of the event is expected to attract 200 cyclists to the Hope Valley village of Bradwell to enjoy a day of hard cycling set in spectacularly beautiful scenery. Laura Mannion, Event Organiser, says, “The Hope Valley is full of people who take their cycling very seriously, so we knew we wanted to put together one of the toughest sportive routes in the UK. “But we’re also very proud of our village hospitality. Your legs may be ready to drop off by the end but we make it up to you with free soup and homemade cake as you finish, if that’s any consolation! “And you can also feel good knowing that your entry fee is helping to keep our beloved village preschool running.” The Bradwell Hill Billy takes place on 28th June 2015. Go to www.bradwellhillbilly.co.uk for more information, and to register. There is a five hill route, in addition to the full seven hill Hill Billy. Entrance costs £25 for the seven hill, and £22 for the five hill route.

With the General Election looming, the NHS is once again in the national limelight. In keeping with this focus, a new production by Wirksworth Community Theatre explores medicine and health care in the past, present and future. Opening the evening at Northern Light Cinema, Wirksworth, extracts from speeches by well-known political figures set the agenda as regards the NHS. A humorous look at the past and present of medical practice thus rings alarm bells for the future. This is followed by a dramatised reading of Safe In Our Hands by local writer Chris Thompson, an awardwinning and acclaimed television and radio script writer. The play opens with Bunyan having a heart attack. Caught between life and death he has three strange visitations. This work is being premiered at JB Shorts 13 in Manchester on 14th April so theatregoers in Wirksworth will be privileged to an early viewing. Finally, the production will feature a dramatized reading of the play Dr Knock, written by Jules Romains in 1923. Into a sleepy French village comes a new doctor who sets about creating a need for his services by unleashing a wave of fear and hypochondria among the inhabitants. As the queues for his surgery grow and his remedies become more elaborate and expensive, Dr Knock watches his income soar high above that earned by his predecessor. As in previous performances by the Community Theatre, directors Helen and Mike Knott have once again cast local actors from the rich pool of talent available in Wirksworth. Helen says she is excited to be working with the cutting edge of theatre in the shape of dramatized readings which bring a freshness and immediacy for audiences. Mike adds ‘although the evening deals with a serious subject the tone will be light-hearted and satirical with the production aiming to entertain and amuse’. Venue - Northern Light Cinema, North End, Wirksworth. Times and dates – Early (7.15pm) and late (8.45pm) performances on Monday 20th April and

Tuesday 21st April. Tickets £4. Available from 7th April from Traid Links, Market Place, Wirksworth (01629 824393). Contact - Andy Miller, phone 01629 820231. email andymillerH61@gmail.com

WIRKSWORTH HERITAGE CENTRE WINS HERITAGE LOTTERY FUND SUPPORT Wirksworth Heritage Centre has received initial support from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for their Recreation and Renaissance project. Development funding of £120,000 has been awarded to help Wirksworth Heritage Centre (WHC) progress their plans to relocate, recreate and develop a more accessible Museum and Community Heritage Centre at a new site on St. John’s Street in Wirksworth. The project aims to carry out essential conservation work and run a series of events, exhibitions and workshops to enable the Wirksworth community to get involved. With an emphasis on widening their appeal to both young and old, WHC will be actively encouraging local people to get involved in every stage of the development, from managing and handling archives and artefacts to digitising collections, from helping to create exhibitions to running group and school visits, there will be something for everyone to get involved with – no experience necessary as full training will be available for anyone interested. Joanna Faulkner, Chair of the Trustees of Wirksworth Heritage Centre said: “We are delighted that the Heritage

events. The development also includes plans to create a café at the rear called ‘Websters Yard’ in memory of Mrs Webster who left the building to WHC and provision for a community space to provide Wirksworth, which is renowned for its artists and artisans, the environment to encourage and work with these communities, developing both an outlet and meeting place.

For Promoting Business Fully equipped conference facilities, super fast WiFi and ﬂexible room sizes create the ideal environment for business meetings and presentations.

MATLOCK FORUM CLUB At the meeting held on Tuesday 10 March 2015 members heard a talk given by Mr Geoff. Cole of the Citizens Advice Bureau. Mr Cole gave a general introduction to the CAB and in particular to its services in Matlock. He pointed out that the Bureau in Matlock was now based in the Town Hall and was now much more accessible for those seeking advice. He explained the administrative arrangements and staffing of the Bureau, which is a mixture of many volunteers and a smaller number of paid workers and is open from 9.30am to 10pm, and that it is possible to drop in or to make appointments for a specific time. The remainder of the talk was given up to a Question and Answer session and produced a a busy and extremely useful participation period. Club Members were asked to produce a list of issues which they considered to be of importance to them. The list was quite lengthy and probably included many topics which Mr. Cole encountered regularly. It included such items as Utilities, Benefits, Pensions, Care homes, Housing and Attendance Allowances to name but a few. These queries were analysed and answered very fully. There were also explanations of legal matters such as the making of Wills (upon which Mr. Cole laid great emphasis) and Power of Attorney, Solicitors and related topics. He spent some time stressing the importance of avoiding scams and reminded his audience that if anything appeared to be too good to be true it probably was. The talk was much appreciated because it had so much relevance for members of the audience and gave so much advice on ways of proceeding in a range of situations. A vote of thanks was proposed by Vice Chairman Frank Beasley. Further details of the activities and programme of the Club can be found on its web site at wwwmatlockforum.co.uk Meetings are held at 10.30am at the Edgefold Club on Tuesday mornings. New members are always welcome.

BUXTON BRANCH OF SAMARITANS Could you support people who are struggling to cope and need someone to turn to? If so, Samaritans of Buxton and High Peak are looking for volunteers. “If you’d like to know more about learning the skills needed to support people in distress or despair, we would love to hear from you,” says Director Maria Kenyon. Information events for potential new recruits are taking place at 22 Hardwick Street in Buxton (on the road between Argos and Potters) at 7pm on Friday 10 April; Monday 8 June; Wednesday 11 November, and Saturday 8 August at 1.30pm.

DARLEY CHURCHTOWN SCHOOL FOUND TO BE GOOD Darley Churchtown CE Primary School had their church schools’ inspection on 26th February and were judged to be a ‘good’ church school. The inspector was extremely positive about the way in which the school promotes the wellbeing of all pupils. The report states that, ‘the love and care provided within the school is successfully ensuring that all pupils are treated equally and that the wellbeing of all pupils is very well supported.’ The headteacher, Janine Stillwell, who has been at the school since September 2014 has had an ‘immediate impact’ on the school, which ‘is reflected in the excellent care provided and the rising achievement of

pupils.’ Going forwards, the school will be working on providing more opportunities for pupils to visit or have links with other communities, to support understanding of other cultures and faiths. During the day, the inspector spoke with the children, staff, governors and parents to gain their views about the school. He was also taken on a tour of St Helen’s Church by the school council. Janine Stillwell said, “I’m very proud of our pupils and the whole school community for this achievement. The inspector was able to see the Christian values that we teach the children and share together, clearly shining through everything we do”.

It is hard to remember that in the 1990s Heage windmill was a rather sad-looking and static structure on the hillside above Nether Heage. A major restoration programme at the turn of the century changed all that, making Heage windmill into one of the major tourist sites in the Amber Valley District, and indeed the county. One of the team responsible for this major change which, apart from bringing the mill back to life, included provision of a new access road, car parking and the provision of services to the site, was John Boucher of Westwood, in Nottinghamshire, who acted as Project Manager for the Trust for all this work and was the consultant millwright as well. Not only did John use his considerable engineering

expertise but he also wrote much of the document used for the successful lottery bid. Heage Windmill Society has decided to honour his huge contribution by inviting him to perform our annual opening ceremony this year, when the mill will be formally opened for its 14th season on Easter Saturday, April 4th at 12 noon.

The children at Brassington Pre-school had their faces painted to raise money for Red Nose Day. They all had a fun morning making funny face biscuits.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor, I was reminded of your interesting story of Charlie White, the first Labour MP for West Derbyshire – now the Derbyshire Dales (Peak Advertiser (22nd December 2014), when I attended a meeting in Bradwell the other night. The meeting

was arranged to meet Andy Botham, the Labour Parliamentary candidate in this year's General Election. A local resident said he thought that this was the first party political meeting to be held in Bradwell for at least 30 years and possibly since Charlie White's days. At this point another person broke in to say that she remembered being taken as a small child by her grandfather to hear Charlie White speak at a by-election in February 1944. This was held in the “Old Shoulder” (of Mutton) which was across from where the new

Shoulder of Mutton now stands on Church Street in Bradwell. Her grandfather explained to her what a byelection was, and also that Charlie White's opponent was the Marquis of Hartington, who was widely expected to win. On election day, she remembered people dressing up in their ‘Sunday best’ to vote and that small boys were running to and from the voting booths to bring messages of who had voted and who had not. As we know from your article, Charlie White in fact pulled off an extraordinary victory,

despite Winston Churchill’s intervention on behalf of Lord Hartington.

Yours sincerely Simon Barley

very busy just now, making hand decorated eggs that you’ll find for sale at Peveril Stores, Castleton, or Bakewell Farmers’ Market (on 28 March). You’ll also find a range of Cocoadance chocolate lollipops, novelty figures and tempting truffles online at www.bigbarn.co.uk. If you fancy trying your hand at chocolate making yourself, try a Chocolate Experience session at the factory. This offers a chance to learn all about chocolate and make some treats for yourself – with plenty of tasting opportunities thrown in for good measure. Or you can have a go at making your own chocolate treats at home, such as this luxury rocky road. The addition of brandy means it’s not for kids – but if they kick up a fuss, get them to make their own, replacing the ginger biscuits with digestive biscuits, and replacing the almonds and stem ginger with 100g marshmallows and a small packet of roughly broken up Maltesers.

Adults only Rocky Road 200g plain Fairtrade chocolate 150g butter 2 tablespoons golden syrup 150g ginger biscuits 150g digestives 80g raisins 50g glace cherries, halved 65g whole almonds, chopped roughly 3 pieces stem ginger, chopped finely 2 tablespoons brandy First prepare the dry ingredients. To crush the biscuits, put them in a large plastic food bag, hold the

ends loosely together and bash with the end of a rolling pin. Not too hard though – you want a nice mixture of small crumbs and some slightly bigger pieces. Transfer to a bowl and add the raisins, cherries, almonds and ginger. Mix together well. Break the chocolate into small pieces and put in a saucepan along with the butter and golden syrup. Melt over a low heat, stirring occasionally until all the ingredients are completely blended. Remove from the heat. Add the biscuit mixture

and the brandy to the chocolate in the pan and mix thoroughly, until all the ingredients are coated in chocolate. Turn into a baking tray, lined with greaseproof paper, and put in the fridge for at least two hours, until set. Turn out carefully, sprinkle with a little sifted icing sugar and cut into squares. If it doesn’t all get eaten within hours, it will store well for a few days if kept in an airtight container in the fridge. If all this overindulgence worries you, be reassured by recent studies that suggest chocolate may help lower blood pressure and improve brain function. So, with this in mind, enjoy a chocolate egg or two this Easter! Also look out for the Bumblebee Conservation Trust’s Pollinating the Peak Campaign – starting next month, with events and activities to help British bees and other pollinators.

Best wishes to

t seems incredible to be celebrating, this year, 30 years of our business in Bakewell. The years seem to have flashed by, which is probably as a consequence of enjoying meeting clients and working with them.

Our small team has wide experience in the accounting profession, industry and commerce and offers a wide breadth of knowledge which has proved important to our clients over the ever changing years.

We are proud of our association with

David F. Lee Associates Limited Congratulations on your 30th anniversary!

Senior partner and proprietor David Lee, began his career in an accounting profession practice before moving to industry for many years in both large and small companies, prior to setting up his accounting practice in Bakewell in 1985. Whilst the structure of the town has changed over the years the basic business needs have not and David F. Lee Associates Ltd. has continued to supply these needs as time and technology have moved on. We have a balanced team of enthusiastic youth and experienced seniors. Our senior accountant, Jonathan, has worked in both industry and the accounting profession and brings a wealth of experience and knowledge from both disciplines. His skills in all the main accounting areas are excellent and he has an advanced tax qualification. He has opted for a life in the profession as he enjoys the interaction with clients and contributing to the advancement of their business where applicable. Our youthful enthusiasm comes from Ben who is studying for his AAT qualification and who is skilled in basic accounting and payroll. He runs our payroll and bookkeeping facilities.

We are all well organised by our practice manager, Vivien, who has much experience in administration, having worked in various areas of accounting and administrative support. As a team we have a wide variety of clients from small to medium sized business, both self employed and limited companies, to individuals needing support in dealing with HM Revenue & Customs. We help in matters such as completing annual tax returns in the most effective manner and ensuring that deadlines are met and tax is paid at the appropriate rate. As HM Revenue & Customs are increasingly turning to on-line submission of information, and deadlines being enforced by fines, penalties and interest charges, it is vital to maintain a well organised administrative system to avoid these painful events, a system which we at David F. Lee Associates have in place. As we all have experience in industry and commerce we get a buzz from analysing the financial performance of business and suggesting areas where benefits may be identified to improve profitability where appropriate. Whilst we are a small general practice we have

developed a network of disciplines to cover other areas of expertise, such as investment advice, insurance, business grants and insolvency. We are a one stop shop in all areas of financial and business matters. With our all round blend of financial and business

February’s gloom was lightened with Elizabeth Bishop showing her more recently cultivated contemporary style. Although many members have been teethed on traditional lines, it was gratifying to hear the audience declaring how Elizabeth’s arrangements could be adapted for home use, proof of good design! So, having been inspired by ‘cutting edge’ techniques and ideas in February, we were led on a historical journey to the late 1400s in March! Anne Barnes brought her love of all things Tudor with a fascinating take on appropriate flowers, herbs and even vegetables for the era. During her demonstration we learned the origins of ‘a square meal’, ‘upper crust’ and were enlightened on the use of herbs for aphrodisiacs and medicinal use! Derwent

Valley Flower Club has certainly entered 2015 with gusto and a purpose to delight, inspire and entertain. You may wish to experience this for yourself on 22nd April at Calver Village Hall at 7.45pm, when Beverly Artis uses ‘A Perfect Day’ as her theme. As we have dwelt on the contemporary present and the Tudor past, I feel I must fast forward to the future when we have an Open Meeting on 7th May at Cliff College. National Demonstrator Tony Brown will awe us with an extravaganza of flowers, scents and colours as he expertly crafts his designs. Not to be missed! For any information about our demonstrations please phone Christine on 01433 630161. You can be certain of a warm welcome, so join us soon.

Lane End Farm Trust in the tiny hamlet of Abney has been awarded £275,000 by the Big Lottery for their Riding High project which enables disabled young people to join in their pony trek. Says Gina Fowles-Jones, Riding Activity Leader:“One of the disabled young people who benefits from our amazing moorland pony trek named our project ‘Riding High’ not only because we are 1000ft above sea level in some of the most spectacular countryside in the UK but above all it is because that is how the experience of riding up onto the adjoining moor made him feel, he said that it gave him a sense of freedom and exhilaration. This is especially the case if the disabled person is confined to a wheelchair. “For the past eight years we have been breeding up and training a herd of rare breed Eriskay ponies specifically for the disabled young people to ride. These wonderful ponies are renowned for their therapeutic value and are priceless to the success of the ‘Riding High’ project because of their stable, kind temperament. “Initially we started with just one horse, our gentle giant Ted who is now 26 years old, then bought two rare breed Eriskay ponies because they are well known for their therapeutic value in working with disabled people. We then started to breed up the small herd specifically so that the young people could ride them. “On the ground, we have seen first-hand how a severely autistic young person can go into the field and ‘communicate’ with our horses but not with people non-verbal communication is a very powerful, positive experience and can instil a sense of confidence and well being. It is the disabled young people who visit the farm

HOPING FOR APPROVAL

Hope Amateur Dramatic Independent Theatre (HADIT) will be back on stage at the Hope Methodist Hall from Thurs 30th April to Sat 2nd May with Alan Ayckbourn’s comedy A Chorus of Disapproval. The plot revolves around the trials and tribulations of a small town light operatic society as they rehearse for their production of John Gay’s “The Beggar’s Opera”.

When diffident widower Guy Jones joins the society looking for company he gets far more than he bargained for. By never saying no to anything, however bizarre, he finds himself progressing rapidly through the ranks, both onstage and off. Tickets (£7.00) are available from Hope Post Office. For more information or for telephone bookings ring 01433 620665.

Bach wrote the St John Passion soon after he went to Leipzig in 1723 to become cantor of St Thomas’ Church, when he was in his late

‘forties. The larger and probably better known St Matthew Passion followed later The St John Passion’s account of Christ’s suffering

and death are told by the narrator, the Evangelist, with a team of supporting soloists and a chorus offering comment. It is a moving and beautiful work and it was given an appropriate performance by an ambitious cast of performers. Five soloists, Mark Wilde, tenor, replacing at short notice the advertised as the

Evangelist; Christopher Foster, bass, Christ; and other key figures by Timothy Nelson, baritone; Hannah Davey, soprano; and Ben Sawyer, counter tenor; accompanied by the Skipton Camerata and a team of continuo players led by the conductor Alan Eost. The Evangelist, a tenor, has the major role, and we were treated to a stellar performance by Mark Wilde, a singer I would go the extra mile to hear again. The team, all professional singers were, together, memorable, and the orchestra, making a welcome return to Bakewell, was first rate. That leaves the choir, last but by no means least, with their task of framing and commenting on events in chorus and chorale. They were in fine voice and in the Lady Manners Sports Hall the acoustic was just right, adding a bloom to the great moments and a clarity to the detail. Their capacity to move from the magnificently and terrifyingly robust noise of the crowd to the softest expression of sadness at the end of Christ’s earthly life were beautifully communicated to us. The performance was very moving and the silences at the most sombre moments emphasised the depth of Bach’s own personal spiritual belief. I do not think anyone who was there will forget the experience, the sheer beauty of the text and of the singing. Alan Eost directed with personal authority and sensitivity, playing harpsichord as well as conducting. Performances like this are both a delight to mount and a joy for the audience, but they are no doubt expensive too, and there was a disappointingly small audience. But for those who made it up the hill the reward was stupendous. John Tarn

BAKEWELL AND ASHFORD FILM SOCIETY - RENOIR Top class Chef Madame Mallory has a reputation she has worked hard to achieve, so when Papa Kadam and his family move from India and open a restaurant on the other side of the street she is furious and tries any way to stop them. Starring Helen Mirren, this award-winning comedy is a great way to end our season.

Bakewell and Ashford Film Society’s next screening will be Renoir (2012 cert. 12

with English subtitles) at The Medway Centre, Bakewell on Sunday April 12th at 7.30pm. Set on the French Riviera in the summer of 1915 Jean Renoir, son of the impressionist painter PierreAuguste, returns home to convalesce after being wounded in World War I. At his side is Andrée, a freespirited young woman, who rejuvenates, enchants and inspires both father and son. She has no problem posing in the nude, but she makes it clear to everyone that she is a paid model. She has no intention of posing for the honour of it, nor is she ready to become a cook or a maid, as have other models before her. Naturally, Jean is drawn to the beautiful young woman, and the plot revolves around the relationships among and between the three main characters. This is an extraordinarily beautiful movie, filmed on the scenic

Côte d'Azur. War is raging elsewhere in France, but life is peaceful in this region. The pace of the film reflects the pace of life at the time quiet and slow. There will be a short introduction to the film and refreshments will be served during the interval. Enjoy high definition, wide screen and multi-channel audio at BASH’s film nights. Our 2014-15 programme of films is available at w w w. b a s h fi l m s . o r g . u k Members may borrow films from our growing DVD/BluRay library. Full membership for one year: £24.00 (10 films), temporary membership: £8.00 (2 films), guest of a member: £5.00 (1 film).

Tideswell Singers

Tideswell Singers were reminded of Christmas carol singing festivities at a recent rehearsal when representatives from Helen’s Trust accepted a cheque from the choir. Tideswell Singers chose Helen’s Trust as the charity for their carol singing collections last year in recognition of the support one of the choir members had been given during her husband’s final illness. The choir was interested to hear about Helen’s Trust work to help people in North Derbyshire who are caring for dear ones at the end of life in their own homes. The choir was asked to put its first date in the diary for this year’s carol singing activities! Plans are well underway for our annual Come & Sing… Now an established popular event, eagerly anticipated by keen singers in the region, Tideswell Singers’ invitation this year is to ‘Come and Sing Mozart’s Requiem’ on 18 April 2015. This work was left incomplete when Mozart died at the young age of 35 and is surrounded by myths and intrigues. We are very fortunate that Mozart expert and Head of Music at the University of Sheffield, Prof Simon Keefe will give a short, illuminating talk entitled ‘Mozart’s Requiem and its Legends’ before the performance. We will be joined by the University of Sheffield Chamber Orchestra, so this promises to be a really stimulating musical event. There is always an invitation to come along and find out if you would like to join us as a regular singer. There are no auditions and rehearsals are directed in a way that encourages everyone to sing to the best of their ability. Singers need no previous experience and although we generally sing from music scores, it is not necessary to be able to read music as you will be able to learn as you go along.

JAMES REDFERN OF HARTINGTON (1838-1876) Inside the church of St Giles at Hartington is a window dedicated to the memory of James Redfern, born in the village in 1838 and who in his short working life attained wide recognition as an accomplished sculptor. Redfern showed artistic promise in early childhood, when he would draw figures on the flagstone floor of the family cottage with pieces of the local chalky idlestone (a fire-hardened clay). With the help of his father, who carved as a hobby, the boy progressed to using idlestone

as a carving medium, using just a simple pocket knife. He was aged only six when his father died but an uncle, William Smith, is thought to have encouraged the boy’s obvious talents. A skilled ironworker, William also has a commemorative window in Hartington church. Some of James’ small carvings came to the attention of The Rt. Hon Alexander James BeresfordHope and his wife, Lady Mildred, of Beresford Hall. Beresford-Hope was a keen

James Battersby/Wikipedia Commons patron of the arts and a benefactor of St Luke’s school at Sheen, where he arranged for James to receive three years’ free education. During this period the boy pursued his moulding skills and also illustrated a book written by his teacher.

That tiny school launched more than one illustrious career, not only that of Redfern but also of John Oliver, who became Prime Minister of British Columbia from 1920-1927. The Royal Academy The continuing patronage of

Beresford-Hope proved invaluable to James Redfern and at the age of 19 he was sent to London to work under a notable sculptor and designer of stained glass. Two years later he exhibited at the Royal Academy, from which time his prolific and mainly religious output began to attract high demand including restoration work. His own creations include 60 largerthan-life statues on the west front of Salisbury Cathedral, the angels on the Lonsdale monument at Lichfield Cathedral, statues of the Apostles in Ely Cathedral, carvings in the cathedrals of Gloucester and Bristol, and several large figures in the Chapter House at Westminster. Other sculptures can be seen as far apart as Yorkshire and New York, Inverness and

Limerick, Cardiff Castle and Windsor Castle. It was Redfern who was commissioned to carve eight figures for the Albert Memorial, pictured, and also an imposing statue of the Duke of Devonshire to stand in Cambridge. In 1866 as a token of his appreciation he exhibited a marble relief of Hugh Beresford-Hope, the young son of his patron, at the Royal Academy. The cause of Redfern’s untimely death, at London in June 1876, is not recorded. To the dismay of his friends and family, he had taken so little interest in his financial affairs that his wife and two children were left totally unprovided for. Like many men of genius, James Redfern had lived only for his art. Julie Bunting

PEAKS, TROUGHS AND MY POUNDING HEART... G A L L E R Y T O P, R O W S L E Y I’m walking, thinking, drawing, absorbing, I ask myself, ‘How do I deal with this, how do I record, capture and relate to this landmass? It’s vast and diverse... How do I sum it up?’ The paintings displayed here are an amalgam of images created from working drawings, musings and memories of locations sampled and enjoyed. There

I’m taken with landlocked Derbyshire. I love its rich and diverse topography, searing hills, edges and vistas that stretch far and wide. The short and winding roads that connect and lead you to pretty villages, market towns, farmland, mills, rivers and reservoirs. The weather too plays a significant part. It can be harsh and unforgiving, yet offer stunning light and rain shows. The elements play an important part of fuelling the rivers and tributaries that energised the industry and historic mills and put this

landmass on the world map. The landscape is rich in natural minerals which have been mined and quarried ceaselessly. Farming, along with the growth of housing, have carved beautiful gestures in the rise and fall of the land. From a painter’s perspective there is a lot to see and consider. I’ve walked hillsides so steep I could hardly stand and felt my pounding heart wavering from exhaustion and of course peering at the visual splendour that lay in front of me. It’s at these times when

RICHARD WHITTLESTONE Wildlife artist Richard Whittlestone opens his Spring exhibition on Saturday 28th of March, featuring paintings inspired by the Chatsworth estate. “Most of my inspiration comes from subjects or views not further than a mile from my studio gallery,” says Richard, “I'm often out early with my sketchbook, recording ideas or items of interest before returning to the studio to work them up into full compositions.” From the magnificence of a cock pheasant in the gardens, to fallow deer under the winter beech trees, or a kingfisher dashing up river and maybe a weasel following the wall at Ballcross, all are subjects for Richard to turn into stunning paintings, something he has been doing professionally for 27 years now, 10 years from his current location on the edge of Pilsley village. Working in acrylic or oils,

Richard’s exquisite paintings sell all over the world and each one carries his

trademark fly hidden somewhere in the picture. The exhibition runs from

Saturday 28th March to Sunday 12th April. www.richardwhittlestone.co.uk

T. E. Palmer was a serving soldier in the Great War who made the transition from private to a commission, winning two gallantry awards along the way. As a sergeant in the 18th Division Signal Company Royal Engineers, he was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) on 20th October 1916. Subsequently, he had been commissioned as a temporary second lieutenant and was awarded a Military Cross (MC), before being promoted Lieutenant on 13th September 1918. We know he survived the war, for his medals were not claimed until 1927 and there was no death plaque, although the two gallantry awards were with the usual 1914/1915 trio, miniatures and other material. Estimated at £1,500-£2,500 the group made £3,500 at the fall of the hammer, making it top lot for the collector’s section of Bamfords March Fine Art and Collector’s sale and indeed the sixth highest price for the entire four day auction. The second highest price was for a rare (932 minted) 1934 silver George V wreath crown piece in extremely fine (EF) condition. This was estimated at £1,500 to £2,000, but eventually went for £300 over top estimate. The King George V wreath crowns were struck from 1927 (15,030 proof coins only minted that year) every year until 1936, the year of the King’s death, excluding 1935, when the more common ‘rocking horse’ crown was produced to commemorate the Silver Jubilee. The coins depict crown within a wreath on the reverse and were struck in very low numbers. Generally, they were issued late in the year and intended to be purchased as Christmas gifts. The 1934 is the rarest of the run of these handsome coins. Other interests catered for included a superb collection of original photographs relating to Derbyshire County Cricket Club. The earliest was a team portrait of 1874 measuring 9 x 71⁄2 in, with eight others, the latest being one of 1931, measuring 111⁄2 x 91⁄2 in., most with names attached to mounts. This had been estimated at £200 – 300 but in the event made an unexpected 1st innings total of £950. Another star lot was a pair of German Second World

War U-boat commander’s Zeiss binoculars, probably from the earlier part of the war, and estimated at a perfectly reasonable £150200, but which again went for a surface-breaking £700 at the fall of the hammer. A particularly interesting local item was the personal,

boldly signed letter from Senator Robert Kennedy written on 31st May 1966 to P E Reynard of the Ind Coope Wardwick Brewery, endorsing and giving permission for the firm to name a new pub in Chaddesden the John F. Kennedy after the writer’s late brother, President

Kennedy. The letter, duly framed up, was hung in the pub from its opening in 1967 until its lamented demise and demolition in 1995 to make way for the flats of John F. Kennedy Gardens. Estimate: £300-400; made £450. Max Craven

BECAUSE I LIKE IT Following the success of Asian art in the Because I Like It gallery, Val and Nigel Hufton made another buying trip to Vietnam. They brought back with them a variety of styles of paintings, including some new artists. They are thrilled to become the sole UK stockist of the paintings of Hoang Trong Tien, a unique artist who paints with his fingernail, e a c h piece of a r t taking we e k s t o complete. He sells prolifically from New York and Manilla galleries. Some of his

landscape works could be of the Peak District, rather than

Vietnam, similarities the Huftons hadn’t noticed before seeing his work.

Phuoc Thien, a longstanding artist for Because I Like It, has also produced some more of his simple greyt h e m e d paintings, hanging between two rods for those who do not want heavy frame, already selling well. In addition to standard paintings, Hanoi artist, Mr Trung, produced two stunning paintings made from leaves for the gallery, and beautiful handembroidered silk pictures from a lady in her own little shop up a mountain are already selling well for Because I Like It.

Stella McGuire, the Peak District National Park Authority’s member representative for cultural heritage, discovered a text from the Chatsworth archives, dated 1795, which describes: “a place called Thurstone Pole but of late called Stannage Pole”. There is also an earlier map reference from the 1760s. And the book, Peakland Roads and Trackways, by AE and EM Dodds, states that a pole has been on the site from at least 1550, believing several of the initials carved in the supporting stones to be

Stella McGuire said: “This has been a familiar landmark for such a long time and we will be talking to local people about an appropriate replacement. “We had no choice about removing the top section because it was a danger to the public, but it’s fair to say that it has been replaced a number of times over the years. “There are some wonderful archive photographs of the pole and it must have been a very important marker for travellers, especially at times when there was heavy snow on the ground.’’

The beginning of March continues to be a busy time for the team, with 3 incidents already plus the delivery of a brand new vehicle to join the fleet. It had become necessary to replace one of our older Landrovers, and in a change from the norm the team looked at other options rather than the tried and tested 110 Defender. The solution was a modified Toyota Hilux with a bespoke load-carrying space on the rear, designed and spec’d out by team members. These vehicles are still relatively new within Mountain Rescue, however with the pressing need to

replace the oldest Landrover, cost, delivery time and function had to be carefully considered. The purchase of vehicles and new equipment is only made possible by the public’s generous donations and the new Hilux makes a welcome and cost effective addition. The vehicle is now fully operational and has already been called into action during our recent incidents. Incident 26 Wednesday 4th March The team was called early in the morning to assist a gentleman who got into difficulty on Mam Tor. The man had left the car park in good weather to enjoy the early morning views but once on the summit he became caught out by gale force winds. Clinging to the trig point and unable to move for fear of being blown away, he called the Police for assistance. Unable to pinpoint his exact location due to poor phone reception, the team were called. However whilst the team were responding, two passing walkers came to the man’s aid and helped him back off the hill. He was then taken back to team base for a warm up, and to dry his clothes. Incident 27 – Wednesday 4th March Second call for Edale members during the day,

THE OLD WIRKSWORTHIAN ASSOCIATION The Old Wirksworthian Association, for former pupils of Anthony Gell School, Wirksworth, held its Annual General Meeting at the School on Thursday 12th March 2015. After the election of Officers for the forthcoming year, the Anthony Gell School Headteacher, David Baker, gave his report about activities in School over the previous year in which he referred to a number of the School’s notable sporting achievements and also success for a School team in a national Mathematics competition. Most importantly, he had just received the excellent results of Anthony Gell School’s recent Ofsted inspection, wherein the School was rated very highly in both achievement and pupil behaviour. The meeting congratulated the School for its successes and, on hearing that David was to retire this summer, also gave thanks to David personally for his willing help and support to the OWA over the years.

Margaret Smedley, the OWA’s Treasurer, gave her annual report on the state of the OWA’s finances, which remain stable. The Secretary, Eileen Chadwick, reported on progress in relation to preparation for the forthcoming Founder’s Day events to be held on Wednesday 8th July and noted that the format of the Service, to be held at St Mary’s Church, had been largely agreed with Canon David Truby. Pupils from Anthony Gell’s are to give a musical presentation and the post-Service buffet will be held at Wirksworth Cricket Club Pavilion. It was decided that the 2015 Annual Dinner would take place on Friday October 9th, subject to negotiation with last year’s venue. After agreeing that an award recognising the musical contribution of School pupils be made to the Music Department, and dealing with other items of business, Tony RugmanJones, in the Chair, closed the meeting.”

this time to Odin Mine near Castleton. Edale Team along with neighbouring Buxton team were called to a man who had slipped and hurt his ankle on steep ground above Mam Farm. He was given IV analgesia, had his ankle splinted and was carried on a stretcher to the waiting ambulance. Incident 28 – Sat 7th March As team members settled in for the night we were called at 21.40 to a young lady who had slipped and sustained an ankle injury

near Ollerbrook Clough on the way back down from Kinder Scout. The team were quickly on scene despite the late hour to give analgesia and splint the injured leg, before packaging on our stretcher and carrying down to a waiting ambulance. Our job that night was made significantly easier due to the group being able to provide us with an accurate grid reference using their map and compass. http://www.edalemountain rescue.co.uk

FATHER MARK WRITES… Easter has been celebrated in the Christian Church from the very earliest times. We know this because Easter is fixed according to the moon. It falls on the first full moon of the spring. That is the Jewish and Old Testament way of calculating times and seasons. Easter was obviously an important celebration in the Christian Church before the end of the first century when Jewish influence on Christianity began to weaken. This reminds us that Easter is the foremost Christian festival, even surpassing Christmas in importance. Maundy Thursday is the day we remember the institution of Holy Communion at the Last Supper. The word ‘Maundy’ comes from the Latin ‘mandatum novum’ meaning ‘a new commandment’. On this day Jesus washed his disciples’ feet and said, ‘A new commandment I give to you that you shall love one another as I have loved you’. The giving of the Maundy money by the monarch goes back to this act by our Lord. There was a time when the monarch actually washed the feet of the poor on Maundy Thursday. The last King to do this was James II. In Saint Giles, besides

Lord’s sufferings look place. During the Good Friday service at Saint Giles, Matlock, we read the passion story and then we process to the altar where we touch or kiss or simply reflect upon the cross. On the night before

having the Eucharist to give thanks for the Blessed Sacrament, we also have a foot washing ceremony. Then there is the stripping of the altars as a way of preparing the church for Good Friday. This in turn is followed by a silent watch until midnight before the beautifully decorated altar of repose. This is a way of identifying with Christ’s lonely vigil in the Garden of Gethsemane. Good Friday is a day of fasting according to the Prayer Book of the Church of England. The custom of fasting on this day goes back to the second century. In the fourth century in Jerusalem the reading of the passion story and processions to the various sacred places associated with our

EASTER TRADITIONS

HOPE VALLEY PIZZA Co. • PIZZA DELIVERY SERVICE •

AT OLD BRADWELL

These recollections were put to paper in 1912 by Seth Evans, writing extensively of his home village in Bradwell Ancient and Modern (reprinted in 2004 by Country Books): ‘An Easter custom in which scores now living have taken part was that of ‘cucking’. On Easter Monday morning girls who refused to kiss young men had to be ‘cucked’, or tossed up, and on Easter Tuesday the girls returned the compliment. But the practice was not only vulgar, but sometimes positively indecent, and very properly died a natural death. Another Easter Monday custom, but confined to the children, was ‘Shaking’, or ‘Shakking’. Even this has almost ‘gone out’. ‘Shakking’ is a mixture of peppermints, Spanish juice, and other sweets placed in a bottle, which is filled with water from a well and then shaked up, and sipped by the children, the youngest of whom had the bottle fastened round their necks by a piece of string. There was a superstitious belief that unless the children put pins into a well on Palm Sunday they would break their bottles at Easter, and that the lady of the well would not let them have any clean water. There were many of these wells where children used to deposit their pins – behind Micklow, in a field called ‘Daniel’s Garden’, on the slope of Bradwell Edge’; in Charlotte Lane; in New Road, leading up to the Bradwell Edge Road to Abney; and many others where children might be seen merrily trooping to deposit their pins. The

Easter, it was the custom in the early church to hold a night long vigil which involved bible readings, baptisms, and then the first Eucharist of Easter. This is the origin of the beautiful service that we hold on Holy Saturday night at St. Giles when, after the sun has gone down, we have a small fire in the churchyard and then we bless and light the Easter candle, carrying it into a darkened church as a sign of the resurrection. Holy Week is a spiritual journey. We travel with Jesus through the sorrow of his passion to the joy of the resurrection. I pray that in our services on Easter morning we may all glimpse something of that deep down joy. With best wishes for a Happy Easter from Mark Crowther-Alwyn!

writer remembers, when a child, with other children, depositing his pin in a well in New Road, and finding whole handfuls of pins in the sand at the bottom of the well, the deposits of the village children for many generations. Nearly all these wells are now disused, filled up, and no longer exist.’

ROTARY CLUB OF BAKEWELL

FERRET RACE NIGHT

The Rotary Clubs of Bakewell and Wirksworth combined to organise an evening of ferret racing at the Whitworth Institute in Darley Dale recently. James Mackay brought in and introduced 12 of his ‘lady’ ferrets to race through their tubes, each requiring a ‘jockey’ to encourage them to the finishing line (the end of the tube! ) Each of the 6 races had 4 competitors – the final race being the winner of winners.

The jockeys getting ready for the race!! There was also an to win a bottle of whisky auction race and a chance which many whisky- lovers

were keen to take part in!! James’s patter and encouragement added to the excitement of the evening and bets came fast and furious. The pea and pie meal was welcomed and enjoyed as always, courtesy of Andrew Fenn of Shirebrook. The evening, which was organised to support End Polio Now, raised a total in excess of £800 and our grateful thanks go to all who helped and attended the event..

SPRING IS IN THE AIR AND SO MAN’S THOUGHTS TURN TO....

Car Boot Sales of Course! Spring cleaning and brighter mornings combine to make April the start of Car Boot Sale season. The season of happy queues of buyers and sellers keen to haggle over a bargain in a field or playground all over the country. Car boot sales were reputedly brought to the UK by Father Harry Clarke, a Catholic priest from Stockport, who wanted a new charity fundraiser and thought of the idea after seeing a similar event or ‘trunk fair’ in Canada while on holiday there in the

early 1970s. There are now large numbers of regular car boot sales across the UK. Car boot sales are also very popular in parts of Australia, and have a growing presence in mainland Europe though of course in America the garage sale remains a cultural mainstay for selling unwanted goods. Car boot sales are a great way of attracting a large group of people in one place to recycle useful but unwanted domestic items that otherwise might have been thrown away. Almost a third of

people say they are prepared to buy secondhand items and the rise of charity shops and vintage stores in recent years shows how people’s buying trends have changed. Items for sale at car boot sales are extremely varied, including for example antiques and collectables. Browsing in a car boot sale is a fascinating experience; a combination of a trip down memory lane as you spot the ‘must have’ items of your youth and a bargainhunting frenzy as you scrutinize every stall for hidden treasures. And in case you thought finding hidden treasure at a car boot sale was a myth, a woman bought a Lalique vase at a car boot sale in Scotland. It was later sold by Christie’s

auction house for a staggering £32,500! Lady Manners School Parents Association run regular car boot sales in the school grounds starting on Sunday 19th April, 7am-1pm. At just £6 per car and free entry for buyers it’s a great value event. As well as great bargains they sell the best bacon cobs, homemade cakes and filled rolls to help raise funds for this local school. So what are you waiting for? Have a liberating ‘life laundry’ weekend and clear out your wardrobe, loft or spare room and see how much money you could make as a seller. Or arm yourself with some cash and visit a car boot sale and revamp your wardrobe or furnish your home in an affordable and green way.

The Easter Mermaid

On the bleak moorlands of Kinder Scout, between the Pennine Way and Kinder reservoir, lies the darkly mysterious Mermaid’s Pool. It takes its name from an old legend which tells how the pool shares a mystical link with the Atlantic ocean. This makes the water unfit for animals to drink and for fish to inhabit. But it is just right for the mermaid who swims up into the pool just once a year, around midnight on Easter Eve, when she can choose to bestow the gift of long life on any who seek her out. One 19th-century centenarian credited his 104 years to regular visits to the Mermaid’s Pool, fortunate that he did not see the mermaid’s darker side, for – so we are told – she can also choose to draw down admirers to meet their doom in the watery depths. Yet the following old poem disregards the dire warning: ‘Where the dread downfall casts its awful shade In a deep glen which rifted rocks have made; Whose towering cliffs seem bury’d in the skies, The Mermaid Pool (a weedy lake) now lies.

Tradition tells us, in times that have been, The pool was deep, its banks around were green, And on an Easter Sunday morning there, The same which yet comes round once every year, Just when the early dawn broke o’er the hills, And shed grey twilight on the gloomy vales, The mermaid might be seen (like nymphs of old, Which poets feigned or superstition told); Woman and fish strangely blended in one, So fables tell, and so old legends run. Now on the wave, greeting the new born day, Now on the velvet bank in sportive play; And when prevailed, the part of woman fair Into flowing locks it curls its hair, Breathes the soft zephyrs as they gently rise, And its fair bosom heaves with human sighs, But when the fish prevails, beneath the tides, Like lightning it a scaly monster glides, And in its watery cavern must remain Till Easter Sunday morning comes again.’ Julie Bunting

ASIA’S TEARDROP: BIRDS OF SRI LANKA Bakewell Bird Study Group’s next meeting is on Monday April 13th and is presented by David Cromack. Sri Lanka, lying off the southern tip of India, was devastated by the 2004 tsunami, but thankfully most of the key birding and wildlife areas were sufficiently inland to escape destruction. This talk will take in locations such as Talangama Marsh on the outskirts of Colombo, Sinharaja Forest (home to Serendib Scops Owl which was previously unknown before 2001), Horton Plains and key areas in the central mountain core. Today the island ranks among the world’s top destinations for leopard and Asian elephant, while its bird list of 450+ species includes 33 birds unique to the island. All our meetings are at 7.30pm in the Friends Meeting House off Matlock Street in Bakewell on Chapel Row next to the Methodist chapel. Guests are always welcome (£2) so why not come along. This is a joint meeting with Derbyshire Ornithological Society who are especially welcome. Why not join our group and take advantage of our outdoor visits which are led by experienced birdwatchers.

ECLIPSE EXCITEMENT AT IS THIS LADY THE OLDEST LADY MANNERS SCHOOL RESIDENT IN BAKEWELL?

Extreme eyewear was the order of the day at Lady Manners School on Friday 20 March for the much anticipated partial solar eclipse. Students gathered to witness the phenomenon which was also streamed live to the rest of the school by teacher and amateur astronomer, Matt Foyle. Cloud cover on the day didn’t lessen the excitement and the eclipse was visible throughout. Matt Foyle commented, “I am delighted that so many students were able to witness this rare astronomical occurrence. Even those unable to leave their classrooms could see the images we were streaming from the telescope.”

WI Rebellion Knoll, Bradwell

Maude Mullins, a resident of Gernon Mannor in Bakewell, celebrated her 101st birthday on March 13th and was joined by the Mayor of Bakewell, Alyson Hill, to mark this extra special occasion. Town Clerk for Bakewell, Mr J. Rowe, said : ‘We don’t know for sure if she is the oldest resident in Bakewell, our records don’t offer that information, but I am sure we will find out for certain if we ask local people through the newspaper.’ Maude, who is originally from Snowdonia, North Wales, came to the area in 2004 and has lived in Gernon Mannor for the last 5 years, she is their oldest resident. Maude shown celebrating her birthday with the Mayor of Bakewell and the youngest members of her family, Teddy and Ricci Hibbertgreaves

There was a first in Rebellion Knoll’s history – we welcomed a male visitor! – probably a landmark event for our 40th year in existence . He was interested, as we all were, in our speaker Alisdair Duncan who gave us a talk on Human Trafficking, a sober, but highly topical,

cockle picker deaths at Morecambe Bay in 2004 – all of whom had been smuggled into the UK and treated as slave labour. Alisdair then went into some detail of a case involving 3 Roma girls trafficked into the UK for sex. We heard how they had got here, how they had

been treated, how the police had managed to find them and repatriate them and how they had been persuaded to give evidence, no part of which was straightforward. The outcome was conviction and timely prison sentences for the perpetrators at a total cost of more than £22,000. Alisdair also highlighted some key points that this case, and others like it, had thrown up. It was important to have unprejudiced interpreters; there needed to be a good back-up team capable of making important logistical arrangements at a moment’s notice; good contacts with Embassy staff; the ability to arrange live video links and a thorough understanding of diversity and cultural issues. He also praised City Hearts who run a safe house in Sheffield and provide a neutral safe haven. Two final observations: 1) there are currently an estimated 13,000 people in the UK who are exploited for labour (including sex trafficking) and 2) Bratislava is a lovely place to visit! This being our 40th year we hope to conclude with a celebratory party for as many past WI members as we can muster and many of our friends from our Group although, bearing in mind where we live, we might require skis, snow shoes and snow mobiles to help us!

Four intrepid mums of pupils at Carsington and Hopton Primary School are challenging themselves to complete a sponsored 200 mile cycle ride over 3 days to raise funds to improve the school’s playground. Alison Howard, Vicky Mather, Hannah Ward and Sarah Weightman are going to push both their physical and mental limits by aiming to complete the ‘Coast and Castles’ bike ride which starts in Newcastle and ends in Edinburgh this April. The challenge is all in aid of helping to raise over £5000 to improve the school playground at Carsington & Hopton. The team are searching for sponsors and are looking to local businesses to support them in their marathon challenge which will deliver the new playground for the schoolchildren. “The school has recently installed a small additional outside play area, but the surface of the original playground is in desperate need of resurfacing to bring it in line with the newer area and to provide a clear, defined sports court and playground for the children,” says Alison

Talk of the Dales 700-YEAR-OLD WIRKSWORTH MARKET TO GET MAKEOVER The oldest market in Derbyshire Dales, the Wirksworth Tuesday market is about to get a new lease of life as the town’s regeneration group relaunches the market with new stallholders and a new look. The market goes back to 1306 when traders and farmers would bring their wares by cart to the town. NOW, New Opportunities Wirksworth, is aiming to relaunch the market on Easter Tuesday, 7th April and is hoping to encourage people from towns and villages all over the area to help them make the market sustainable for many more years to come. Shirley Mann of NOW, said: “We have a loyal number of stalls who come regularly but like many weekly markets, Wirksworth has been struggling so we intend to give it a boost that will hopefully take it forward into a more prosperous future.” NOW is being helped in its bid to revitalise the market through a grant from NOW, the Town Council and funding from the Exton Trust. NOW is also hoping

people will use the market as a reason to visit their town and Shirley Mann added: “Wirksworth has already fought off the recession with its impressive range of independent shops and now we want to make our market a bit different with more unusual products. We know that visitors are often surprised what a lovely, vibrant town we have and we want more people to experience that.” Wirksworth has already had interest from stallholders from Bakewell farmers’ market, Ripley and Matlock and is hoping to offer a regular range of unusual and quality products. Stallholders who would like to book in for the re-launch should contact Nicola Wildgoose at Derbyshire Dales District C o u n c i l email:nicola.wildgoose@de rbyshiredales.gov.uk.

BASLOW W.I. DARLINGS. Derbyshire PhotographyStephen Elliott Wow!! These photographs really impacted on us, with their breathtaking beauty, almost an invasion into the privacy of the first light of day, capturing the transition of night darkness as the glimmer of dawn erupts across the landscape.

Left to right: Alison Howard, Vicky Mather, Hannah Ward, Sarah Weightman Howard. “We wanted to raise funds to help the school improve its facilities and decided that the ‘Coast & Castles’ bike ride would be the perfect challenge! We are currently seeking sponsorship to help us hit our target and are asking local businesses to get in touch with us at the school if they can help. We’re delighted to say that we’ve

already had a very generous donation of over £400 from Longcliffe Quarries. “We’re all keen cyclists but this is something bigger than anything any of us has done before, it’s scary but exciting too.” finished Alison. Commenting on the bike ride Peter Johnston, Headteacher at Carsington & Hopton School said, “We

are delighted that the team have chosen this challenge. We want to ensure we have the best facilities for the children and resurfacing the playground will help us create a safe area for play and sports that will really benefit the school children. We wish them all the best in this challenge and hope that local businesses are able to help support them in their fundraising.”

Stephen’s depiction of the brutal majesty of Derbyshire’s gritstone, stark grey Tors silhouetted against fiery sunsets and sunrises, swirling mists and fog waiting to be dissipated by the warm sun, made us feel as though we were actually standing there, looking across at the panoramic views from a precipice of rock. Perhaps if I scrambled up the pitchblack hills, at three in the morning and waited in anticipation of dawn I could also participate in this spectacle; then again, perhaps Stephen’s photographic skills can “transport” me there more comfortably! Jumble Sale Bric-a-brac heaven! You name it, you gave it and we sold it. Customer numbers up and “Darling’s Deals” were a veritable cacophony of bartering, haggling, laughter and banter; adrenaline levels high as sales fervour commenced. We’re solvent again, thanks to your generosity. Holymoorside Walk and Lunch. Leader- Sue Ayres Quagmire! After weeks of rain, Sue inspired us to meet the mud challenge. I wore my gaiters and I barely complained – just a few mumblings, that is, until we came to the wooden bridge, which was unreachable, surrounded by

an enormous expanse of everglade swamp, a mudhole of squelchy slushy bog. Well, darlings, it was every man for himself, no helping hand, no piggy back, no cloak laid before me; bravely, I struggled on, as my boots sank into the sucking sough. Would anyone pull me out? Or would “my sisters” be too busy taking photographs of my dilemma to put on Face Book!.... Good fun, good lunch, good walk. 8th April. “Tales from a lady Bobby”- Lynn Bowler. 2pm.

2.30pm at the Friends Meeting House in Bakewell for a talk and discussion on this topic. There are hundreds of ‘green lanes’ unsurfaced tracks, lanes and pathways which were historically used by walkers, horse riders, pack mules and sometimes horse-drawn carts - in the Peak District. At present they mostly form part of the network of footpaths, cycle ways and bridle ways which are such an important feature of the National Park. However, the county council, along with other county councils across the country, as Highway Authorities, have been inundated with applications over the last couple of years to have such ‘green lanes’ designated as ‘Byways Open to all Traffic’ (BOATS)! This would almost certainly subject them to regular use by ‘off-road’ vehicles - both motorbikes and four wheel drive cars - which would change their character drastically. Currently there are several such applications in the Bakewell area, notably one running from the village of Over Haddon, through Lathkil Dale and via Meadow Place Farm to Back Lane, Youlgrave. The case for and against this becoming a ‘BOAT’ will be looked at in details. All are welcome to come to the meeting.

Hope Valley entertained Broughton Park, looking for revenge for an earlier defeat at the hands of the famous Manchester club, and, on a perfect day for running rugby, they started where they left off last week, opening the game up at every opportunity, soon being

rewarded when Matt Keeley crossed for an unconverted try and a 5-0 lead that was soon extended as the home side dominated a scrum, allowing Dave Ryder to exploit the blind side for another unconverted try. And then it all changed. Suddenly the attacking

rugby all came from Broughton Park, with only handling errors, a tendency to narrow the game too much and some resolute tackling keeping the score at 10-0. It was, however, inevitable that the defence would crack at some point and Park crossed for a converted try to leave the half time score at 10-7. Despite playing up the slope, Valley defended strongly until an ill-advised quick lineout led to a breakaway try and the visitor’s first lead of the game. Whilst Valley could have easily wilted, they fought their way back into an increasingly scrappy game and were rewarded with a penalty, converted by Dave Ryder, for the narrowest of leads. With time running out and Park’s flanker more interested in “social interaction” with the spectators than seeking the winning score, Valley’s pack with Dom Hunter, David Cadwalladr and Adam Russell prominent, kept the game tight to secure a hard fought victory.

MY FAVOURITE WALKS – SHINING TOR This is not intended as a walk guide

The Goyt Valley has an alluring fascination. Snuggled into the High Peak hills this flooded vale contains a variety of fabulous walks with a choice of ambling over heather clad moors, wandering beside the water’s edge, tripping through ancient woodland and plantation forest trails or dawdling among disused quarries and the nostalgic ruins of former glory days.

ruins I made my way to the path leading up to Pym Chair. With a long ascent ahead I thought it best not to linger but to get stuck in, so I headed off with a spring in my step. For the first few yards I was going at a cracking speed until I found my natural pace and rhythm of a leisurely plod! Before reaching the road I couldn’t resist a quick peep inside the miniature chapel

services from the top of a nearby cluster of rocks to a congregation hiding beneath. Another theory is that Pym was a highwayman or leader of an outlaw group who preyed on travellers and packhorse trains heading over the hilltops on this ancient route linking Cheshire with Derbyshire. It was time for the final push and the long gradual ascent to Shining Tor over

My return to the Goyt on this occasion was to tackle a hilltop challenge, to rise up from the reservoir and look out towards the sea! Having parked in the Errwood Hall car park by the side of the reservoir I stood for a while watching a school of little sailing boats bobbing about on the waves of this massive man-made pond, opened in 1968 and created by damming the River Goyt which would otherwise flow into the Tame and then the Mersey near Stockport before heading west to empty into the Irish Sea at Liverpool Bay. It was a lovely walk up to the ruins of Errwood Hall beside a gushing peat-rich stream, cascading down off the moors through a dark ravine lined with oak, beech and pine trees encrusted in lichens and moss. The rhododendrons are currently plumping up ready to burst forth in a haze of purple splodges whilst birds dash about nest building and courting ornithologists flock to this valley to observe songbird, waterfowl as well as occasional birds of prey. Errwood Hall was once a splendid Victorian country mansion built by Samuel Grimshawe who was a Lancastrian industrialist and staunch Catholic. It was designed by Alexander Beresford Hope and built between 1841 and 1851. By 1934 the building was in a poor state of repair and in 1960 mainly demolished, although some of the foundations remain.

shrine, tucked away in the trees. It was constructed as a memorial to the memory of Delores De Bergin who was a Spanish governess to the Grimshawe children. She sadly died in her 40’s. Arriving at The Street,

moorland riddled with peat bog. However, it’s a relatively safe route having a wall side to follow and a pathway of huge Yorkshire stone slabs underfoot. The worst risk is probably that of tripping up on one of the

jagged mountain range of Snowdonia. Away to my right a tiny procession of soaring gnats were coming in to land at Manchester airport, whilst standing out from the crowd of high rises, the Beetham Tower rose majestically up from the city metropolis. In the foreground Shutlingsloe appeared like a miniature volcano, whilst nearby Croker Hill was a distinctive landmark with its strange mast. Away to the east a rollercoaster of dark peak hills and pikes stretched out behind me. Being sunny, but with powder-puff clouds, there were shadows dancing in partnership with golden rays over the landscape. My return down into the valley was a wonderful descent of the old coach road to Errwood between Stake Side and Shooters Clough . Away to my right was Wild Moor. Much of this moorland is designated SSSI in national recognition of its upland heath and blanket bog habitation. Here vast swathes of heather plants are burned or cut in rotation to encourage new growth, which accounts for its fascinating patchwork appearance. The final stretch of my walk and the return to the car park was down a new track purposefully made for machinery to access a plantation which was being systematically cleared. Large areas of coniferous woodland were planted in the 1960s and 70s as crops

believed to be Roman in origin, I turned uphill following the pathway and ascended to Pym Chair where I sat for a while to enjoy the wondrous views. This spot is supposedly named after a character named Pym whose identity has been lost over the years. It is thought he could have been a preacher centuries ago who held secret

pavers as you are busy admiring the views! Onwards and upwards I skipped, purring past Cats Tor toward the trig point peak like a metaphorical dangling carrot in the distance. Eventually I made it to the shelter of the walled corner summit and thankfully a vacant seat where I could rest awhile to enjoy my rucksack snack at what is in fact Cheshire’s highest point. Not quite close enough or high enough to see the sea, the views from up there were stupendous. Being a clear day I could see across the Cheshire plains to the hazy horizon with the

which are now reaching maturity and are ready to be harvested. I might not have seen the sea, but with waves lapping against the shoreline of the reservoir by the side of the car park it was as close as I was going to get to the real thing in land-locked Derbyshire!
