Editor’s Letter...

You will notice a change in this month’s Arrow!

We are combining two magazines to make one, The Sprotbrough Arrow, which is now in its 5th year and our latest magazine, The Warmsworth & Barnburgh Arrow.

We often get advertisers interested in both areas and we feel these villages are very close to each other, both in miles and community.

Therefore, the new Arrow will cover 6000 homes in Sprotbrough, Warmsworth, Barnburgh and Harlington. The Arrow will still focus on news relevant to these areas so please continue to keep us informed of everything that is going on locally.

If anyone has photographs from the Barnburgh and Harlington Carnival and the Warmsworth Gala, please send them to me and we will publish them in the August issue of The Arrow.

The deadline for the August issue for advertising and articles is Wednesday 18th July. The Arrow will be delivered from Friday 27th July.

Best Wishes

Doncaster 67th Scouts Gala and 6.5km Road Race A short break in the cloud and rain was available on Sunday 24th June to allow the Sprotbrough Scouts Gala to be held on New Lane playing field. Torrential rain overnight had led the field to be waterlogged early on and almost to the cancellation of the event, but quick reorganisation placed most of the sides shows and stalls inside the marquees and by 1 O'clock the sun was shining on the village.

The conditions were ideal for the race when it began and 190 entrants took part including a host of runners raising money for the Amy Kirby Memorial Fund, and for the first time Danum District scouts and explorers joined in for the event and races for new trophies. The race was won by Sam Booker in a time of 24 minutes 8 Seconds Sam was also the first Sprotbrough man home we were pleased to welcome Councillor Pat Haith, Chair of Sprotbrough and Cusworth Parish Council who presented the trophies. The female race was won by Karen Kidney in a time of 29 minutes 50 Seconds .

Once again Richard Martin was the first Sprotbrough Scout home in 29 minutes 42 Seconds, taking the District Trophy as well.

Speight’s

The event brought good crowds of supporters onto the field and this, along with the ever popular 'Pasta Party' held on Saturday night, raised over £3100 for scout funds.

The programme raffle for a £50 Boyland's Voucher was won by ticket 'blue 182' and remains unclaimed, please contact enquiries@sprotbroughscouts.co.uk if you have this ticket.

Sprotbrough Children Run for Yorkshire Air Ambulance!

From the left, Rachel Howard and Finlay Bennett (Orchard Reception) Ben Wheatcroft , Elliot Larner, Tilley McHugh ,Fay Bennett, Alice Wood, Eleanor Green, Molly Heald, Alex Howard & Emily Newby (all Copley Junior School pupils)

Hello my name is Fay I am 7 years old and me and 8 of my friends from Copley Junior School & my little brother and his friend from Orchard Infants school have ran a sponsored run around Cusworth Hall grounds for the Yorkshire air ambulance.

We organised it all ourselves sent out letters and made sponsor forms it wasn't a school event but our Teacher Mrs Wood let us use the school photocopier and helped give out letters. We don't have all the money collected yet but we think it will be over £250! We are very pleased with that and I would like to say thank you to all my friends and their mummy's and daddy's for helping.

We ran down the hill around the lake and all the way back up the path, I was very tired but my brother Ben ran it twice (he's a good runner) Emily's big brother Thomas ran with us to keep us safe and our parents waited at the top of the hill where we would finish. All the Copley children helped organise it not just me. Fay Bennett What a fantastic achievement! Well done to all the children who took part. It’s lovely to see children so young taking an interest in helping others. I bet your Mums’ and Dads’ are very proud!

The Arrow!

‘Think’ you know about the Police Crime Commissioner role?

A new campaign has been launched in South Yorkshire to raise awareness of the role and impact of the forthcoming Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC).

The ‘Think PCC’ campaign, led by South Yorkshire Police Authority, is designed to help highlight the new role and encourage the public to have their say when it comes to choosing the county’s first PCC. The commissioner will replace the county’s Police Authority, taking over the role of holding the police force and the Chief Constable to account.

Ahead of the November election to choose the PCC, the Police Authority will be attending a number of events across the county to raise awareness of the new role and to consult on residents’ policing priorities.

Events will include next week’s Flame in the Park at Hillsborough Park, Sheffield, on June 25. The event is held to support the 2012 Olympic torch relay runners as they make their way through the city, the Police Authority stand will have an Olympic theme and representatives will be asking the public to rank their ‘gold’, ‘silver’ and ‘bronze’ police priorities.

The Authority will also participate in other South Yorkshire events including: Lord Mayor’s Parade, Barnsley – July 14 Doncaster Show – September 1-2 Rotherham Show – September 8-9 Bill Wilkinson, South Yorkshire Police Authority chief executive, said: “This will be the biggest reform in policing for more than a quarter of a century so we are ensuring we get out into the community to highlight the forthcoming role and the changes it will bring with it.

“The chosen PCC will need to work with the Local Criminal Justice Board and other public services, such as district councils, fire, transport and health bodies, as well as the voluntary and private sectors – so it will affect everyone. It is therefore vital that the public are aware of the changes as it will have a real impact.”

Their first priority for the PCC will be to approve the Police and Crime Plan for 2013/14. Other duties will include deciding how the policing budget is spent and consulting the public and victims of crime on community safety.

The PCC will have a stronger role in commissioning and managing service contracts from partner organisations than the current Police Authority, reflecting their wider intended role within the criminal justice system.

The Police Authority is currently preparing the office for the PCC and is managing the process through a joint transition board with South Yorkshire Police and partners.

Members of the public will be able to vote for their chosen PCC on November 15, with the person elected taking office a week later.

For more information on the Police Authority visit www.southyorks.gov.uk or follow the Police Authority on Twitter @sypoliceauth.

Warmsworth Cricket Club

We are now well in to flaming June and still the weather continues to dominate the season.

Out of the scheduled 27 fixtures that should have been played to date, we have managed to fulfil only 10 matches, this as you can imagine has been extremely disappointing.

There is no home game on Saturday July the 14 th as the Annual Village Gala takes place on the ground.

There will be plenty going on to keep all ages entertained and the Bar in the Cricket Club will be open throughout the afternoon serving soft and alcoholic Drinks.

During the past couple of weeks we have strengthened our playing squad by signing a young opening batsman. Tom Green joins us from Division One Team Rossington. Tom also represents Doncaster in the Under 17 Joe Lumb Team. We would like to welcome Tom to the club and wish him success for the remainder of the season.

The Club has recently had Broadband and Wi-Fi installed at the club and it is our intention over the next few weeks to upgrade to electronic scoring for all matches and through Total Cricket Score have the scores updated in Real Time on the Internet.

Sprotbrough Beware!

On 25th April, 1599, a baby boy was born to middle gentry parents in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire. The child was christened Oliver Cromwell. His family had once been one of the wealthiest in the county although, by now they ranked closer to the bottom when compared with their peers. That said, Oliver had inherited money and lands from his now deceased Father and Uncle and was able to gain a top education at grammar school followed by Cambridge University.

After his schooling he made money through farming and by charging rents on his land. His money had to stretch quite far though, as he had a wife and eight children to support along with his widowed Mother.

He dabbled with politics but was never very influential, until, that is, the English Civil War ‘kicked off’. In 1640 he became an MP for Cambridge and raised troops for the cause in 1642. He fought on the side of the Roundheads, or parliamentarians, against the Crown. His success in battle saw him climbing the career ladder as fast as lightning until he became commander of the entire army. He overthrew the Stuart Monarchy by having Charles I tried and executed in January, 1649. By July, 1650, he was leading his army north to crush Scotland, then over the sea to subdue Ireland and up and down the British Isles taking on every Royalist army that tried to stand in his way.

Understandably, people were afraid of Cromwell’s presence in their town, so that in August 1651 when he passed through Doncaster, extreme caution was required.

At Sprotbrough Hall, lived Sir Godfrey Copley, who had control over who crossed the Don River in the gorge as he owned and ran the ferry. The Ferryboat Inn, now the Boat Inn, stood on the banks and at the boarding point for it.

Although Cromwell marched into Doncaster closer to town, where the river was bridged, he could have quite possibly opted to cross the river in Sprotbrough. Because of this possibility, Sir Godfrey received a letter from his brother-in-law Darcy Wentworth along with other friends, urging him to undertake certain measures to ensure his and his family’s safety at this volatile time.

The letter went as follows (spelling errors and all):

“Esteemed Sir, ‘Such is the condition of our cuntrie at present as requires care to be taken as passingers; And there beeinge a by way over your ferry roed thought fit to de?so?e you would be pleased to command that your ferry boate to be locked up that there be noe passidge for frind or strangers feet untill you have further notice that there may be passidge when safetie werest.’

Septeme 7th 1651 Your family and ser[vants] Dar Wentworth John Copley ??? ????????

G. Byan” Good cousin be carefull whome ye entertaine for ye danger is greate.

The letter is of a serious nature and carries a strong message. ‘Lock up your Ferryboat to both friends and strangers’ and be careful who you have round for tea!

It would be 250 years before the Copley’s provided a bridge at this point. It came in the form of a toll bridge. By now, the Civil War was ancient history and on the adjacent bank of the Don stood the thriving quarrying community of Levitt Hagg. Today lower Sprotbrough is one of the most picturesque corners of Doncaster with its quaint pub by the canal and its nature reserve providing a haven for wildlife and a gateway to the Pennines beyond. Sprotbrough can rest easy again as the marauding armies have long since vanished. The ‘danger’ is no longer ‘greate’ for us.
