Editors Letter.... Did you know the first day of the month of May is known as May Day. It is the beginning of warmer weather, whilst flowers and blossom fill our gardens. Morris dancing, crowning of the May Queen and dancing round the Maypole are also a few of our many English traditions. This time of year the garden definitely needs some work, no matter how low maintenance it may be! There are plenty of adverts in this issue of the Arrow to tempt you into buying those Summer bedding plants and also if your lawn needs some tender loving care, give Greenthumb a call, it works out much cheaper then buying the DIY treatments! Last month I asked anyone to come forward with photos, postcards and information about local history in your area. For any articles or photographs chosen for the magazine, you will receive a gift voucher to the value of £10 to treat yourself at Jonathan David’s of Epworth. Come on all you historians, send your information in!

News, News, News, News, News, News, News... Michael Fotheringham, a member of the Isle of Axholme Family History Society was the speaker at their last meeting. The subject of his talk was „A timeline and short history of Temple Bellwood‟. He traced the history of the house and lands at Belton from the initial grant through the early Bellwoods to the Mowbrays who granted 2000 acres to the Knights Templar. It is not known what sort of establishment the Templars‟ built. Perhaps it was just an outpost with the land bringing in revenue. A variant of a Maltese cross is the only survivor of the period and there is some ancient glass in Belton church. After the suppression of the Knights Templar the land passed through various notable families like the Vavasours and the Popplewells eventually passing into the Johnson family. They held it for many generations ensuring the estate was protected by marriages between distant relations. In the late 1800‟s it was turned into a hotel but did not prosper. In turn it became a Boarding house and then a boarding school known as‟ St Paul‟s College. Many tales are told about temple Bellwood One in particular about a horse. Michael Fothering ham was on the opinion that the tale related to a horse called „Tankersley‟ which was purchased and had its name changed to „Sir Soloman‟

Whether you’re a shopaholic or a reluctant browser, most would agree that convenience is a key word when it comes to the charms and chores of shopping. And what could be more convenient than the shops that are there on our doorstop? Don‟t pass them by as if they are somehow second rate. They are not. In fact convenience is only a part of the story as to why they deserve our support. Here is a little food for thought... Jumping into the car and heading for that out-of-town super store or shopping mall may seem a good idea. But it can end up a time-wasting, costly and frustrating experience. Time, they say, is precious. But how many hours are wasted in traffic jams, just getting to your destination – and then driving round to find a place to park (and often having to pay for the privilege to do that, too!) In the meantime, the pennies you think you will save turn into pounds of extra expense. Strange, but true, most people don‟t view it that way. Why? – Because the extra expense is not shown on the receipt of goods they buy. But it all comes out of the wallet just the same! Another thing which is often overlooked is the cost to the environment – something which is on the minds of a growing number of people in these days of climate changes. Unnecessary journeys simply add to all those CO2 emissions which are threatening to choke our globe. A walk to the local shops is healthier... and cheaper in more ways than one! If it‟s a friendly, personal service you are after, then there‟s nothing finer than the shop on the corner. Such attention is a tradition that has its roots embedded in the history of each village and hamlet in the area. “It wasn‟t until I tried my local shops that I realised just how much they stock,” said one shopper. “I was amazed at the variety – and the costs were very reasonable too.”
Epworth is up and coming, there is such choice, a variety of outstanding shops and just about every month a new one appears. As I am writing this article ‘Smartest Baa None’, the latest children’s clothes shop will open its doors on 1st May! The growth of our villages in recent years has seen an increase in facilities and business services. But they can only survive if the people they are designed to serve support them. Let‟s face it, we‟d all miss them if they were not there!

Epworth Police Report Stool Close Road, Belton – this small development of residential properties has been subjected to reports of anti-social behaviour and neighbour disputes and reports of crime. There is a neighbourhood watch group for the area, who together with other partnership agencies are working together to reduce the calls for service to the area and to identify and deal with any offences both criminal and civil and to increase the residents‟ quality of life. The Neighbourhood Watch group have actively sought ways to reduce crime and have taken advice on how to prevent crime including CCTV, and Smartwater. There are no set times for this behaviour and both Neighbourhood and incident response officers are aware and will attend this particular area. At a recent Neighbourhood Action Team meeting the following comment was made by a resident; - “the police presence visiting the area has had very positive results and the problems are decreasing, we are kept informed of events and what police action has been taken. I would like to thank the police.” The police will as part of their patrols attend the area and continue to respond accordingly.
Westgate Road, Belton- this is a particularly well used road within Belton to both residential and business locations. There are reports of vehicles who travel along this road when they are not permitted to do so because of the weight restriction in place and those that break the speed limit. Together with out partners we are addressing the issue and an increase in roads policing officers in the area has been requested. We have received concerns from residents about crime issues and that some residents are establishing a Neighbourhood watch scheme which is encouraging and will be fully supported by the Neighbourhood team. Two males have been arrested for 2 dwelling burglaries and a theft from this particular area which occurred in January 2010.
Community Engagement -: Establishing what are the issues within the local community continued improvement in Community Engagement. One of the greatest challenges for the Local Policing Team in such a rural location is to effectively collate the concerns of all aspects of the community. With a significant proportion of the village‟s residents not getting actively involved in community politics or activities the team have been working on other methods of engagement. This has included regular school visits and attendance to local events. We have also conducted our first „walkabout‟ surgery, where we met with local people out and about in Epworth on Thursday 25 th March between 3pm and 4pm. We have received very positive feedback regarding our hi-visibility in the town on that day and our engagement with both businesses and the community. I would like to encourage anyone who is out and about on the following dates and locations to speak with us about your community.
Thursday 22nd April – 3-4pm BELTON – starting off at High Street. Wednesday 19th May – 3-4pm – SANDTOFT including the industrial sites. Thursday 17th June - 3-4pm EPWORTH starting off at Fieldside. Wednesday 14th July, 3-4pm BELTON – starting off at Westgate Road. PC Starbuck and PCSO Pearson were invited and attended on Wednesday 10 th March 2010 the Wesley Memorial Methodist Church Women‟s Network Meeting where a talk was given on „A day on the beat‟ From the article that appeared in the Epworth Bells on the 18 TH March and from a letter received the talk was a success. PC Starbuck and PCSO Pearson will be assisting Epworth School to make sure that they attend their church service safely on Thursday 1st April.

The list goes on…… Then Qigong may help you. The practice of Qigong as a health therapy consists of three distinct coordinated parts. A controlled breathing pattern.

And how was YOUR Easter? Many of you know that I had a serious accident on Ash Wednesday, falling down 13 steps at a cottage we rented for half term in the New Forest. My Easter has been very different as for the first time in over 25 years, I took no services whatsoever! Indeed I wasn‟t even fit enough to write an article for ARROW. That‟s why I am so glad that every Sunday when we share Holy Communion, we can celebrate Easter all over again. There may not be any chocolate eggs on view but we still remember Jesus‟ life, His death and His resurrection – the very centre of what Easter is all about – Sunday by Sunday in our worship. So if you missed out on Easter this year for any reason at all, come and join us for a joyous celebration any time at All Saints Church. Even if I am not there because I am taking services elsewhere on the Isle, Jesus will be there with His very special friends! I can assure you of a warm welcome.

The Isle of Axholme
Where You Live
Your Local History
Adapted by Anthony Catherall
THE NORMANS In 1066 William the Conqueror became King of England after defeating Harold at the Battle of Hastings. The Normans quickly set about ruling England with an iron fist, suppressing ruthlessly any Saxon rebellion. The lands of England were divided up between the Norman Barons who had helped William at Hastings. The Bishop of Constance was given the estates of the Isle of Axholme amongst others. These were passed on to his nephew, Robert de Mowbray. Later King William 11 confiscated the estates on account of Robert de Mowbray’s rebellion against him. Later they were conferred on Nigel d’ Albini. His son Roger took the Mowbray. The Mowbray’s built a castle at Owston Ferry. It was a mote and bailey castle with a man made hill on which the actual castle was built probably of wood. This was destroyed in 1173 after a rebellion by the Mowbray’s. The Mowbray family became one of the most prominent in England. In 1385 Thomas de Mowbray was made Earl Marshal of England. In the Isle, Thomas had churches built at Haxey, Epworth, Owston Ferry and Belton. He founded the Carthusian Monastery at Low Melwood. It was known at the ‘Priory in the Wood’. The monks were not allowed to eat meat or drink anything but water. The barons of England had despotic powers, but the Mowbray’s appear to have ruled fairly benevolently. In 1360 John de Mowbray granted a famous deed to his tenants that gave them free use of the wastelands adjacent to each parish. This deed caused a great deal of trouble to Vermuyden and his fellow drainage experts. It gave the tenants the right to dig the peat, collect the tree remnants and to rate their hemp in the waters of the wastes. It was signed at Epworth on May 1st 1360 and written in French. It is now amongst the public records in the Tower of London. The Doomsday Book compiled in 1086 gave the Normans an idea of the kind of country they had conquered. It gave the economic value of each of the manors and of the social standing of its inhabitants. Epworth, Haxey, Graizelound, East Lound, High and Low Burnham, West Butterwick and Crowle are all mentioned in the Doomsday Book. It gave the value of each manor as well as the number of ploughs, oxen’s teams, and amount of meadow and value of fisheries. The villages at this time would have been little better than a collection of hovels.

This month and every month; see Epworth in by gone days and compare to today‟s images!
Photographs of the east side of Epworth are quite rare. Dominant in this early 1912 postcard of Hollingsworth Lane right with the Pony & Trap outside is the Old Courthouse built in 1848, unusually with two jails at the top. Epworth Petty Sessions were held each Thursday until 1991, after which it closed and became a private residence. Further down we see a lonely figure in the road to his left in top picture was Shilitto’s yard, trading as Corn Merchants. Coming up on the left at No.10 a little later in the 1930’s was Miss Batty her lodger Miss Agar was headmistress of the Church school. No.12 was Mr.(Bungy) West and housekeeper Miss Raper. At No.14 now ‘Court Cottage’ was Stonemason Bob Sissons many of his headstones are in St Andrews churchyard. No.16 lived Bobby Sykes and his family they were potato merchants. ‘Garth Cottage’ No. 18 Lived Mr Gagg. At 20 Mr. Bell the postman whose granddaughter still lives in Chapel Street. No. 22 now called ‘Croftside’ lived Albert Broomhead. Opposite on the right was an Orchard then owned by George Hill. This scene is almost unchanged below today, save for the house facades and a garden of a bungalow on the right next to a path to Vinegarth.

Epworth Primary School News Letter Easter Egg Decorating Competition The School hall was full of „eggciting‟ things at the end of term! There were eggs decorated with paint and fluffy bits stuck on them. The children had entered a competition to decorate a hard boiled egg and were very creative in decorating their eggs. Entrants were judged by parents, grandparents and carers who came to vote and support the event. It was a very hard job to judge the best but two winners from each class were chosen and were presented with their chocolate egg prize in our end of term Church Service at the Wesley Church: Comedy Duo win Epworth’s Got Talent FINAL A full house enjoyed the Epworth‟s Got Talent show last night raising £330 for the Haiti Earthquake Relief Fund. With the non-uniform day this has meant the school has raised £811 for this worthwhile cause. Congratulations to Ryan Moss and Alex Mappouras, the comedy duo winners in the Final. Well done also to 2nd placed Dan Lay and Alex Isles for their unique Takwondo demonstration and to 3rd prize winner Lucy Edwards for her trumpet playing as well as Ella Letorey, Special Award for her poetry reading. Actually it is all the children taking part that are congratulated for an excellent performance proving that indeed Epworth has talent! Primary Music Celebration Well done to all those children who took part in the Primary Music Celebration on Thursday 25th March at New Life Church in Scunthorpe. Mrs Hodson and Mrs Taylor took 27 children to sing with children from other North Lincolnshire Primary Schools – in all about 250 children! They all sang their hearts out. The weeks of hard work were worth it. Year 5 Residential Trip 27 children from Year 5 spent 4 days at Hathersage in the scenic Peak district with 4 members of staff. The group stayed at St. Michael's Environmental Education centre in Hathersage during the last week of term from 29th March - 1st April. Activities included Orienteering, Local walks, Tree planting, a visit to Eyam and a Search and rescue simulation. The children had a great time despite the rain and the mud and the puddles - in fact they seemed to enjoy the mud the most! The children learnt about the environment of the Peak district - the classroom was the outdoors for the week - as well as gaining independence skills in being away from home and working together.

THE WORLD HAS CHANGED The world has definitely chnaged for some people--especially for those who play Scrabble on a serious competitive basis. Many of you will know that since its creation in 1948 the rules have excluded proper nouns (the names of places and people) -tempting though that might have been . So the eligible vocabulary is being dramatically extended, and for those of us who are challenged by the demands of this game the world has certainly changed. The rule change will force a different way of thinking as the new words are brought into use. But the world has changed too for Christians-- because for them the world can never be the same after Easter than before. Easter 2010 has been celebrated, and the day we celebrate as Easter is most proably the correct date, because of its link to the Jewish Passover. For the first Christians also there was a rule change-no longer keeping the Jewish law , but being freed to live in the spirit of that law embodying life and love. This applies still to us today. For us the concern is not with proper nouns, but proper love and peace. Words that are simple to spell, but harder to live!

Lindsey Lodge Hospice News Letter Lindsey Lodge Hospice cares for people whose lives are affected by life-limiting conditions such as cancer, multiple sclerosis, motor neurone disease, heart or renal failure. Lindsey Lodge Hospice is an independent registered charity, number 702871, situated on Burringham Road, Scunthorpe and serves the community of the North Lincolnshire area. Drivers needed to provide occasional lifts to the Hospice. Every second Saturday in the month, between 10.30 – 1.30pm we run bereavement groups for the loved ones of all patients cared for during their final days. Some people are unable to get to these groups, perhaps because they live in an outlying village with an infrequent bus service or have no transport of their own. If you are able to help every now and again we‟d like to hear from you. For further information please ring 01724 270835 and talk to either Alison Tindall or Chris Dyer. Donations needed to our Hospice Shop on the High Street in Epworth. You can now help us make and extra 28% on the sale value of donated goods. We are now able to claim Gift Aid on goods donated by UK tax payers. Ask in the shop for information or call 01427 874967. Watch out around Epworth and the villages for news of our Isle Supporter Group activities. For more information visit our website at www.lindseylodgehospice.org.uk, call our fundraising team on 01724 843731 or email: enquiries@lindseylodgehospice.org.uk. You can write and send donations to Lindsey Lodge Hospice Burringham Road, Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, DN17 2AA.

Small mammals is the topic for the next Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust meeting! Just a reminder that the May meeting of the Isle of Axholme group of the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust will take place on Thursday May 6th when Natasha Estrada will be giving us a talk about small mammals found in Britain. These small creatures are often hard to see but Natasha has been monitoring them for several years. This should be an interesting evening. At this meeting we will confirm the date of an evening visit to Rush Furlong which will be either May 12th or May 19th. Saturday walk around the reserve at Messingham Following our April meeting when Eddie Gaunt gave us a talk on Messingham Sand Quarries, we are going to visit the reserve itself on Saturday June 5th. We will meet in the car park at the reserve at 10am. Anyone who needs a lift or instructions on how to get there just ring Geoff on the number below. The walking is easy on flat paths and there are two hides and numerous seats so do come along and join us, all our meetings are open to anyone; you don‟t have to be a Trust member. This will be the last event until we start our indoor programme again in October.

Dear Readers, The visibility of pedestrians at night is a complex phenomenon. A Driver can only avoid accident if he sees a pedestrian relatively far ahead. The driver must detect the pedestrian, recognize the impending collision, and then react by pressing the brakes. Suppose a driver is traveling at 60 mph (88 feet per second) and suddenly sees a pedestrian. Normal reaction time is about 1.5 seconds. During this time, the car will have moved forward 132 feet (1.5 x 88). Cars don‟t stop instantaneously, however, so the vehicle continues forward after brake depression until friction halts all motion. This would require another 150 feet and take about 2.8 seconds. As a result, the driver must see the pedestrian 280 feet and 4.3 seconds in advance. At a speed of 35 mph, the stopping distance is still 138 feet and the stopping time is 3.6 seconds. These calculations also assume good conditions. The requirements increase when the road is wet, the vehicle is heavier (a fully loaded tractor trailer can take 400 feet or more), the terrain slopes downhill or the driver‟s reaction time is slowed by age, alcohol, fatigue or distraction. (Using a mobile phone.) The driver is usually looking directly ahead. The pedestrian must be seen in peripheral vision because there is an angle between the driver‟s direction of gaze and the pedestrian‟s location. The pedestrian is hard to detect because people are much poorer at seeing objects off the direct line-ofsight. The eye has lower peripheral acuity and visual attention is usually concentrated where the viewer fixates – directly ahead. Attention becomes more focused ahead when visibility conditions are poor or traffic is heavy The driver will most likely detect the pedestrian only if there is an eye movement to the right or left. This may occur by chance or if the pedestrian is highly conspicuous for some reason, but drivers are usually looking for pedestrians only at likely locations. Drivers won‟t expect to see pedestrians in rural roads or other areas where they have learned through experience that pedestrians are unlikely to appear. For example, three quarters of the pedestrians killed in road accidents are hit outside of crossings, probably because drivers do not expect them there.

On Friday 9th April, Michelle Sidebottom founder of Arrow Publications celebrated her 40th birthday in style! Her husband Sid organised a „Pink Stretch Hummer‟, which travelled around Doncaster stopping off at homes of friends, who all welcomed her with special surprises. From champagne, chocolate, balloons and banners Michelle was received like royalty. I would personally like to say a big thank you to Michelle, without her I wouldn‟t be where I am today working with the Arrow magazine. On meeting Michelle I found her very kind and thoughtful; she welcomed me on board and to this day I appreciate everything she has done for me. Not only a work colleague Michelle has also proved to be a very special friend. Special thanks also goes to Peggy and her team at Trax FM, who very kindly announced Michelle‟s birthday on their radio station at such short notice. So here is to Michelle on reaching her „landmark‟ and I am sure all the readers of the Arrow wish her all the best.

Visitors flocked to the Axholme Camera Club for the showing of Parry Jenkins 'Musical Mystery Tour'. Parry, of Wroot, is well known around the Isle and his digital images are not to be missed. The show he put on was excellent and thoroughly enjoyed by all present, especially as appropriate music accompanied the pictures, with Parry also playing the piano, an added treat. The Royal Photographic Society is world renowned for the superb quality of its members' work. Members of the Club enjoyed a show of excellent photographs produced by the RPS Nature Group. Their work is always inspirational, and this is evident by an increased number of Nature photographs being entered in competitions by members.
Strangers in the Night won Edward Sabin ( Ted) 20 points
When Tony and Marjorie Furmston of Normanton were invited to judge the 'Ladies versus Gents' competition they were pleased with the friendly reception. It is one of their favourite clubs, they say, and they are always pleased to revisit. The Vice Chairman David Ulyett welcomed them and explained that he was very keen on a bargain, and here we had 2 for 1, to which Marjorie replied, ' No. BOGOF' ( Buy One Get One Free ) to much laughter and applause. The judging was undertaken in a more serious vein, although interspersed with humorous anecdotes and helpful hints and tips. The members had turned out entries in force to try to win or defend the title, and it was a close run thing. However, on this occasion the Ladies pipped the Gents by less than 1 point, with 20 points going to Helen Turton, Edward Sabin and Alan Townsend ( twice).
Jan Neale's photo scored 19
Ray Brightman from Sheffield came to show some of his work, and excellent work it was covering many years. In fact, he said the Club was privileged to be the one to see his final slide show, as slides are now a thing of the past and he has not ventured, yet, into digitally projected images. His adventurous work with prints would suggest it won't be long. Meetings continue weekly through to June, when fortnightly meetings, often outings, take place. Anyone wishing to join in will be made welcome. Haxey Church Hall 7.30pm, alternate Tuesdays and Wednesdays, more or less!
