Traditions of the season include the making of New Year’s resolutions. Maybe you will be making one, like myself! The battle of the bulge yet again, to lose those extra pounds ready for the holiday season ahead of us. I would like to start the New Year by
thanking Mr Tony Catherall. Tony has produced the history articles for The Epworth and Belton Arrow for nine months. As you are probably aware the first history article was introduced last month, with many more to follow on a monthly basis. Tony has put many hours in for me to produce these articles and all this effort is much appreciated by myself and hopefully my readers.

Wroot Travis School Newsletter On Monday 7th December we performed our Christmas concert, Rodney the Stable Rat. We had been rehearsing for a few weeks and we‘d got it just right. Stars of the show were three year old Daisy as Mary and 5 year old Oliver as Joseph. One of our Mum‘s gave birth to a baby boy just the night before the concert but he was too heavy for Daisy to use as the baby Jesus.
Here are the animals waiting in the stable to see the baby Jesus.
Sorry no room at the Inn
Everyone enjoyed the concert, we did two performances and there were only a few seats spare. We had our Christmas party on Tuesday 15th December and we had a visit from Santa. He arrived very quietly and we didn’t even hear the reindeer. He told us if we are good he would come back and see us on Christmas Eve. On Wednesday 16th December we went to see the pantomime Dick Whittington in Scunthorpe. It was a great show and we laughed all the way through it. The jokes were very funny and one of the children had to go up on the stage to sing a song. He did get a goody bag so he was quite happy. On our last day Thursday 17th December we had our Christingle service in St Pancras Church. It was a lovely service. Mrs Hoole had been into school the day before to help us make the Christingles. The children had collected donations for The Children’s Society and they took them to Church and gave them to the warden to receive their Christingle. We were very pleased to have around £140 for the children who face violence, neglect and poverty in their daily lives. A very humbling thought at Christmas when most of us are so lucky to lead happy safe lives. Christmas is for the children.

Imaginative plans to restore one of North Lincolnshire’s most highly popular tourist attractions - to how it looked when first built 300 years ago have been announced. They are for the Old Rectory in Epworth, which was built in 1709, and as a museum now attracts visitors from around the world - as it was the birthplace of John and Charles Wesley, the founders of the Methodist Church. Epworth‘s Old Rectory has submitted an application for listed building consent and planning permission to North Lincolnshire Council to carry out the work, which is intended to open up the entire house to how it would have looked in 1716. The outcome of the planning application will be known in mid-January 2010. ―This is a very exciting time for The Old Rectory,‖ said curator Claire Potter. ―If everything we have planned is approved we‘ll have a visitors‘ attraction second to none,‖ she added. The plans call for current visitor facilities will be moved out of the Old Rectory into a brand new purpose built visitors‘ centre, containing the museum shop, a new café, and other facilities. Then the Old Rectory will be restored to how it might have been around the year 1716. Part of the plans are to improve access with ramps to the entrances and a lift to enable everyone to see all three floors of the elegant Queen Anne house which contains such a rich history.

News, News, News... Many rooms will be returned to how they would have been when the Wesley family lived at the Rectory with period furniture, furnishings and artefacts, which will tell the stories of their lives. The recent discovery of early 18th century wallpaper has generated much excitement and it is planned to recreate the wallpaper in the room where it was found. There will also be new spaces for changing exhibitions so that visitors will be able to see more of the items in the museum collection. The new visitor centre will also open into a proposed new orchard, containing tree species, which were known in the early 18th century, and the car park will be redesigned and extended. The Trustees of Epworth‘s Old Rectory have consulted widely prior to the submission of the planning application and are hopeful of a positive result. Anyone who would like to become involved with the Old Rectory, or if they would like more information, please can visit its website at
www.epwortholdrectory.org.uk or telephone 01482 872268.

Important Message for Axholme Camera Club members and visitors. The Audio Visual presentation meeting will now be on Tuesday January 5th to avoid Haxey Hood Day. Everyone is welcome to come to this evening of AVs, which is a celebration of members' work rather than a competition this year. David Neve, visiting judge from Brigg, found the entries for the 'Still Life' competition difficult to judge and awarded 6 prints the top mark of 20. Andy Kershaw, taking over as Competition Secretary, had two winning monochromes along with Judy Newton, and the colour section was won by Jan Neale, Judy Shirley and Harry Snow, proving there is no age limit to good quality photographic work, as Harry is an Honorary Life Member in his eighties. From West Yorkshire, Rodney and Helen Smith gave 'An Evening with a Difference' as Helen showed how she uses her photography to produce beautiful embroideries, boxes and zigzag books to display her pictures in different ways, while Rodney, as well as bringing some of his collection of cameras dating from the early 1900s, also brought some photographs from that period too. It was an interesting evening.

Westwoodside Church of England School Newsletter The week beginning 30 November was our ‗concerts week‘ at Westwoodside Church of England School. Weeks of patient practice paid off with a series of marvellous Christmas productions involving children from throughout the School. The Foundation Stage (Nursery and Reception classes) put on a wonderful, animated version of the Biblical Christmas story entitled ‗The Wriggly Nativity‘ which was enjoyed by all, especially as some of the children taking part are only three years old! Years 1 and 2 took part in another lovely version of the Nativity called ‗Starlight‘. The audience included some of the more mature members of our community from the ‗Social Sixties‘ club which meets in Westwoodside Village Hall. The children in Years 3 and 4 rose to the challenge of ‗Wind in the Willows‘ which featured a projected backdrop and very professional props in the form of Toad‘s car and caravan. Our oldest children in Years 5 and 6 performed ‗Captain Christmas‘ which included a high standard of singing, dancing and acting. The concerts from Year1 upwards each had an afternoon and evening performance, so a very busy week included four dress rehearsals, watched by the rest of the School, and seven performances – an outstanding achievement for a school of our size. The number and standard of performances reflect the successful partnership between parents/carers, staff and children. Thank you to all who contributed, in so many different ways, to these memorable and educationally important experiences for the children. Roger Marshall Headteacher

Isle Group of the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust Members Photographic Evening The February meeting of the Isle of Axholme group of the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust will take place on Thursday February 5th when we will be having our annual members slide, digital or print photographic evening. This has always proved to be a very popular evening in the past because we have a wide variety of subjects, not just natural history. Members bring along photographs of anything they think may be of interest to the group. The photographs can be in any form as we have both slide and digital projectors. It is helpful if we know in advance who is bringing some photographs so that we can arrange them in order and set up the appropriate equipment, just give Geoff a ring. Do come along and join us, if it’s like past years you will have a great evening. Our meetings are open to anyone; you don’t have to be a Trust member. We meet on the first Thursday of the month from October to May at the new hall at the rear of Haxey Methodist Chapel on Low Street starting at 7.30pm. There is a small admission charge of £1 and there is a raffle and refreshments. Bird food is always on sale at the meetings as well as at Geoff’s house in Belton.
For further information about the local Trust group and their meetings please contact Geoff or Chris Trinder on 01427 872051. We look forward to welcoming all regular members and new visitors

Haxey Parish Council, Newsletter, January 2010 Parish Clerk - Deb Hotson Email: haxeypc@live.co.uk Telephone: 01652 618306 / 07800 569 589 Website: www.haxeyparish.org.uk
The Parish Council would like to wish you all a Happy New Year Awards Book / Map and Tithe Book The Parish Council has in its possession for safe keeping the Awards book of 1803, Awards maps of about 1845 and Tithe book of about 1900. These are all original and relate to the enclosing of the land and its use in the parish. They presently reside in a large safe in St. Nicholas church, the environment is stable other than from problems of damp, the books and maps are free from any major damage. The Parish Council earlier this year decided that we should try and find places where they could go on public display and local residents could have an insight into our rich local history and heritage. With this in mind we have been investigating the cost of a display cabinet which would suitably protect the books and maps while giving the residents the opportunity to view them. We are currently taking expert advice on their condition and any steps required to restore them and protect them from further damage. We also hope to photograph them so that the copies can be more generally inspected and intend to approach the camera club for advice on the technical aspects of such a project. We then will put out to tender for a suitable display cabinet, once we have one we will be able to put them on display. We already have in principle the agreement to display at St Nicholas church and are looking to find other venues within the parish to show them. We will be approaching the Heritage Society with a view to having a short written explanation of how the enclosures affected what was one of the last places in England to practice the medieval strip farming. We hope when they go on display you will visit and enjoy what is one of the parish treasures. Allotment Update
Haxey Parish Council‘s Allotment Project is close to completion and the Cove Road site was handed over to the Allotment Association on 3rd December 2009. The photograph shows Cllr John Smedley handing over the Parish Council‘s Allotment Cup to Steve Brown to mark the official hand over. In attendance are representatives of the Council‘s Land Working Party, the Allotment Association‘s Steering Group and the site Contractor, Nigel Brownbridge. Whilst most of the work on the site is now finished, Yorkshire Water has still to connect the water supply, which is now not expected to be complete until after Christmas. The Association is now looking forward to their Tenants preparing the plots for the new growing season and is planning an Open Day in 2010; meanwhile, the Parish Council will continue to work with the Allotment Association to ensure the smooth running of the site.
Community Emergency Plan Following the serious floods of 2007 and 2008, the Government has been putting in place measures to ensure that the UK is well prepared to deal with future emergency events. It is very important that locally we are also ready to help ourselves. When major emergencies occur, public resources are frequently stretched and immediate assistance may not be available, so local help can be vital in providing emergency support to our community. The Parish Council is therefore considering preparing a Community Emergency Plan so that we are ready to help ourselves in the Parish using our own local resources if an emergency affects us. In order to prepare an effective Plan we will need help from parishioners to identify temporary premises which can be used in an emergency, to identify people with specialist skills who are willing to help others and a list of vehicles and equipment which could be useful in an emergency. This will increase community resilience to emergencies. The Parish Council will need your help to prepare the Plan and we will be consulting widely to collect information.

The Isle of Axholme
Where You Live
Your Local History
Adapted by Anthony Catherall PRE HISTORIC MAN IN THE ISLE OF AXHOLME There is no evidence to suggest that the Isle of Axholme was settled by Neolithic man (the first farmer) despite a number of archaeological finds at Scunthorpe. The first suggestion of early settlement of the area is provided by the number of Bronze Age man finds. These early inhabitants started ‘invading’ England about 1800 B.C. A particular branch of these people is called the ‘Beaker’ people so named after their pottery. They came in boats across the North Sea pushing into Eastern England up the rivers. In our particular case the Humber and the Trent. They were a great trading people as well as being rather belligerent. These people were the first to use worked metal. They also used flint and stone tools. The standard evidence of the Bronze Age people is around the barrow (burial chamber). None have been found in the Isle of Axholme. Despite this it is probable that some settlement existed in the Isle of Axholme during the Bronze Age because of the amount of archaeological finds of bronze and other implements from this age are: Find Bronze Spearhead “ “ “ “ Bronze Rapier Palstave (type of axe) “ “ Gold Torc Flint Axes Stone Axes “ “ Axe Hammer “ “
Where found Haxey (Now British Museum) Crowle Gunthorpe Crowle Moors Butterwick Crowle Santoft Low Burnham (now British Museum) Belton (now Scunthorpe Museum) Haxey 6. (now Lincoln Museum) Wroot 1 (now Lincoln Museum) Epworth Haxey
The appearance of Bronze, gold, stone and flint in the Isle of Axholme obviously suggests trade as none of these materials are found naturally in the Isle. It is thought that the gold may have come from the Wicklow Mountains in Ireland via Wesse (Dorset Areas). About 300 B.C. Britain was invaded by various iron using peoples, thus the Iron Age man. There are no finds in the Isle relating to the Iron Age, but obviously Iron tools must have spread to the Isle at sometime. The period up until the Roman invasion is rather confused and rather lacking in evidence. By Roman time the River Trent was the rough dividing line between the vaguely established British tribes of the Coritani and Brigantes. The isolation of the Isle of Axholme and relative backwardness seems about this time to be taking shape.

Farming in the Isle at Harvester Farm, Epworth
Although most people may have looked upon the last month as wet and gloomy we on the farm have had a very satisfying and productive time. The tups (rams) have been ―busy‖ and most of the ewes have the crayon marks across their rumps – they look very colourful with either a blue or red backside striding out across the field! We have booked the Sheep Scanner for early February who will be able to tell which ewes are expecting singles, twins, triplets and even quads ! This important information will help us to ensure that the ewes are given the correct amount of nutrition so that we do not over feed singles (too big a lamb therefore a difficult birth) and likewise the multiple births are given more to ensure a better survival rate. We have had numerous visits to Selby market this month to sell the ram lambs – this entailed some very early starts in the rain in order to gather them into the trailer to get to the market by 7.30am. All our visits proved very successful and also the early wake-ups had a silver lining …….the café at the market does the best egg and bacon roll and coffee in the county!! We have more or less have now finished with the lamb meat selling, our last 6 went this week, our next visit to the butcher will be in January when we take the first of our Dexter steer. The cattle have settled into the winter routine and must be enjoying the comfort of a dry bed and plenty of sweet smelling silage. All the summer calves with mothers, are in will Larry (their Dad) and had to learn who is boss or get a biff from his large head on their hind quarters. Peace prevails now and everyone knows his or her place! This is not so down at the other yard where Agnes‘s little calf is giving his mum a good run around - it is surprising now quick his little legs will take him! And he now has 2 potential playmates because Ruby gave birth to TWINS., This was a very pleasing surprise , we knew she due at the end of the month but never thought she was carrying twins. She gave birth to 2 black bull calves who are doing very well but due to the poor light I have been unable to Mike’s Gardening Services photograph them but promise a picture for All aspects of garden maintenance & next month. Improvements including We hope you all had a merry Christmas and wish you a happy New Year.

Book Review Title: Cool! Author: Micheal Morpurgo The main characters in Cool! are Robbie a boy who goes into a coma, and Lucky an injured dog… In the first part of the book Lucky runs out on to the road and Robbie runs after him. Then a car comes and hits Robbie, Robbie is brought to hospital in a coma. After that, (the main part) Robbie describes how he feels. At one point he overhears a nurse say to his mum and dad, ‖if he doesn‘t wake up soon we‘ll have to let him go ,sorry‖. This makes Robbie frustrated and upset. Finally, to wake Robbie up they bring Zola, a famous footballer to speak to Robbie. Unfortunately this doesn't wake Robbie up. So they bring Lucky in, Robbie is so happy Lucky‘s alive he wakes up! This book has detailed black and white illustrations which go with the story perfectly. There is nothing bad about this book; I really like the way its unpredictable. You can‘t easily guess the ending. I give it five stars. Reviewed by Robyn

Monkeys can be very cheeky like the one in this picture. Most live in the rainforest in Africa but some live in other countries.
Monkeys eat bananas, insects, eggs, nuts, small reptiles, leaves, flowers and fruit! Monkeys are very intelligent animals, in fact they are one of the cleverest animals in the world! Monkeys’ enemies are big cats such as jaguars, tigers and more. Also snakes, apes and other monkeys are their predators. Monkeys are related to humans. They have hands and feet like humans. They have very strong arm and tails to help them swing from tree to tree. Monkey bodies are adapted for their tree climbing lifestyles! By Niamh, Olivia and Alan!

Lawn care in Autumn/Winter Moss Moss loves a cold and wet environment and therefore winter is its favourite time of year. This is the time when moss will spore and spread to form a thick spongy blanket in your lawn which can choke the grass. Now is the time to be taking action against it but when moss is in your lawn it can require more than just the application of a moss treatment to remove it. A moss treatment will stop the condition from deteriorating but dead moss will stay in your lawn and become a foundation for further moss in the future. You need to take action against the causes of moss, one of which is thatch that has developed in your lawn. Thatch is a blanket of dead grass and other decaying matter, of which dead moss becomes a part, that prevent essential air, water and nutrients from reaching the grass plant. You need to get that rake out again, but a hand or electric rake may not be robust enough to shift it. Of course nothing clears thatch as effectively as a professional scarifier which uses blades to remove the thatch and does a significantly more rigorous and thorough job. Compaction and Sub Surface Thatch Over time, and quite quickly where there is regular foot traffic, a lawn will become compacted. A compacted lawn struggles to dissipate water from its surface which encourages moss to grow, especially in the autumn/winter. This, along with sub surface thatch, again forms a barrier to air, water and nutrients affecting the growth and health of the grass. Hollow Tine aeration can correct this by removing thousands of cores which relieves compaction, and thins thatch.

Don’t be dim this winter A Happy New Year to all our readers Being able to see the road ahead to avoid danger and stop safely in an emergency is a necessity for all drivers, especially when driving in the hours of darkness. (Doncaster Advanced Motorists) offers the following tips on how to check and use vehicle lights in preparation for the short and dark days. Check the lights Regularly check that all lights work. While someone observes the lights around the car, switch on each light oneby-one: headlights, sidelights, fog lights, indicators, brake lights, reverse lights, hazard warning lights and number plate lights If alone, park by a reflective surface such as a garage door, illuminate all lights in sequence and look for the reflections Use the lights When away from street lighting, visibility is limited to the range of the headlights. This varies greatly between dipped and full-beam; slow down when driving on dipped headlights. Lights give motorists an early warning of each other‘s presence. Look for approaching lights when driving around corners, adjust the position of the vehicle accordingly and dip your own headlights to avoid dazzling other motorists If oncoming drivers forget to dip their lights, slow down and give your eyes time to adjust to avoid blindness. Never stay on full-beam to retaliate It is £110 difficult to judge approaching speed in the dark so take extra care when making a manoeuvre and always allow traffic to pass when waiting to pull out at a junction The weather will also dictate when to use headlights and fog lights. Use fog lights sparingly; switch them on only when visibility is below 100 metres. Leaving them on after fog has disappeared is an offence and a danger to other motorists A general good rule of thumb is to switch on dipped headlights during heavy rain and poor light Never use lights to dazzle or cause discomfort to other road users – this is against the law If you are interested in further information regarding the courses that we offer, you‘ll be able to find this information on the Institute of Advanced Motorists website at www.iam.org.uk or Tel: 020 8996 9600 Safe Driving.
