To The Peaks of Fame Sir Joseph Paxton

In this part of the country the name of Joseph Paxton is most closely associated with Chatsworth, whilst references to his worldfamous Crystal Palace are familiar much further afield. Paxton was born in 1803 into a poor family living near Woburn. From early adulthood, his abiding interest was horticulture and by his early twenties he was working at Chiswick Gardens Arboretum. It was here that Paxton first met the 6th Duke of Devonshire, who in 1826 brought him to Chatsworth as superintendent gardener. Paxton’s achievements began on the day he arrived, as he would later recall: ‘I left London by the Comet Coach for Chesterfield; arrived at Chatsworth at

4.30 am in the morning of the ninth of May 1826. As no person was to be seen at that early hour, I got over the greenhouse gate by the old covered way, explored the pleasure grounds and looked round the outside of the house. I then went down to the kitchen gardens, scaled the outside wall and saw the whole of the place, set the men to work there at six o’clock; then returned to Chatsworth and got Thomas Weldon to play me the water works and afterwards went to breakfast with poor dear Mrs Gregory and her niece. The latter fell in love with me and I with her, and thus completed my first morning’s work at Chatsworth before nine o’clock.’

The Great Conservatory And love at first sight it was. Joseph Paxton and Sarah Bown were married eight months later. Sarah proved to be the perfect helpmate during the years that her husband transformed Chatsworth. Cost was no object to the Duke of Devonshire and the landscaped grounds became a magnificent complement to his palatial home. The construction of new water features included the aqueduct and, later, the great Emperor Fountain and lake, in addition to the Pinetum, rock gardens, arboretum and scenic walks. Ten years after coming to Chatsworth, Paxton began work on his Great Conservatory, or Great Stove, 277 feet long by 123 feet wide (pictured on page 12 courtesy of Derbyshire Local Studies Libraries and www.picturethepast.org.uk). The young Queen Victoria would be driven through this enormous glasshouse in a carriage and pair on a visit to Chatsworth in 1843. By this time, the 6th Duke had financed botanical expeditions to fill his Great Conservatory with exotic plants; he and Paxton shared a firm friendship and in 1838 spent a year travelling overseas in search

of new species. Their next venture was the remodeling of Edensor (pictured on page 12), with Paxton playing a major role. Each house was provided with running water and the villagers had a school, playground and fields for them to graze their own cows. Paxton designed his own house, ‘Barbrook’, along with a lily house that sadly has not survived. While Joseph Paxton undoubtedly inspired the buildings with which he is credited, he is thought to have relied on professional architects to bring them into being. In later years he

An evening of enriching renaissance choral music will be held on Saturday 14 June at the splendid St Michael & All Angels Church, in Taddington, Derbyshire. The Early Music Chamber Choir, Renaissance Voices, will be singing at the concert. All profits will go to Friends of the Peak District, a charity chosen by a choir member Shirley Foster, who also volunteers for the charity. Renaissance Voices Choir was established in 1989, to bring together musicians from across the Peak District and the Midlands to promote performances of Renaissance and Baroque music. The choir has visited Europe on several occasions, giving concerts in Italy and, more recently, in France, in Provence, Burgundy and Normandy; it has also performed widely in the Peak District, at various northern cathedrals and in

MATLOCK LUNCHEON CLUB At the May meeting our speaker, Willie Tucker, the Lord Lieutenant of Derbyshire, told us about his position and its history. He is not a lord, but he is the representative of the Queen in our County. He felt that the Queen would wish to congratulate the Luncheon Club on its 50th Anniversary. Lord Lieutenants had first been appointed by Henry VIII as military men responsible for the maintenance of order. They could raise their own armies. This function became less and less important, was insignificant in WWI, and ceased altogether in 1921. In Derbyshire it was carried out by the Dukes of Devonshire for 400 years, but the 11th Duke felt unable to do this because of more urgent pressures, and there have since been four other Lords Lieutenant – not from a military background. They do, however, have a very expensive uniform, a sword and spurs. They are selected from a group of 40 important people from all walks of life. The invitation to serve comes from the Prime Minister, because it would not be right to refuse if the request came from the Queen herself. Their duties are to accompany members of the Royal Family on official visits. These visits usually last a full day and every detail has to be arranged and assessed – a lot of work, but a pleasure. They also present medals and awards on behalf of the Queen. As there have been fewer honours in the East Midlands than in other regions, Mr Tucker encouraged members to nominate local people. Lords Lieutenant also take part in local civic events and with uniformed organisations. They also chair the committee which appoints JPs. In answer to questions, he said the Lords Lieutenant receive no formal training, only discussion with their predecessors and a senior man in London, a DVD with instructions on uniform and ceremonial and an induction at a conference centre in Windsor Great Park. Their work is voluntary, with only a contribution to the cost of a driver. There are now also twenty Lady Lieutenants. Dr Brenda Slavin thanked Mr Tucker for his talk and all the fascinating information about his role.

the Cotswolds. David Young, the music director said, “The choir will be singing music which spans five centuries. We will concentrate on English music with a couple of motets by continental composers, as well as two contemporary pieces. We

thoroughly enjoy these concerts in such an idyllic location, for such a good cause. Please do come along and enjoy it with us”. The St Michael & All Angels Church in Taddington, has 12th century origins and is in a beautiful rural setting,

which is perfect for the concert. The church was the venue for the last two concerts held by the choir to support Friends of the Peak District, a charity dedicated to protecting and enhancing the landscapes of the Peak District and surrounding areas.

Returning for the its fifth year, Buxton Military Tattoo 2014 is set to provide the same quality of awesome music, spectacle and entertainment as shown during the previous four years. ABF The Soldiers’ Charity is proud to present the Buxton Military Tattoo which, acclaimed in the press, by the military and above all by the public, returns to the magnificent and iconic Devonshire Dome in Buxton for two performances on Saturday 5th July 2014 with a whole new 200-strong cast featuring Regular, Reservist and Cadet Bands. Heading the line-up are The Band of The Irish Guards. As one of eight London-based State Bands, the Band of The Irish Guards supports all State ceremonial duties including the historic Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle. Fiercely proud of their heritage going back to 1633, the Royal Regiment of Scotland is represented by the Pipes and Drums of the 1st Battalion and are performing in the Tattoo alongside The Royal Signals Northern Band with The Band of The Royal Corps of

Signals, and The Nottinghamshire Band of The Royal Engineers. Derbyshire and Lincolnshire Army Cadets Force Bands are performing together and the local RAF Air Cadets, 2517 (Buxton) Squadron’s Corps of Drums will be presenting another powerful performance. Another addition to the Programme is Erin Parker – Sounds of the Forties who in a unique opportunity will be singing wartime favourites accompanied by The Nottinghamshire Band of The Royal Engineers.

Event Manager, Chris Thornton, commented, “We are pleased to include a Forties segment in the programme to pay our respects to the many serviceman who were involved in D-Day and the invasion of Europe 70 years ago.” Both performances will include a spectacular Massed Bands Finale and also the Lone Piper’s lament but the emotive Sunset Ceremony with “Evening Hymn” only takes place during the evening performance.

LOCAL STUDENTS IN FENCING FINALS Five Hope Valley College students competed in the British Youth Fencing Championships in Sheffield last weekend. Y7 students Ellen Robbins-Wilkinson and Alice Bannister and Y11s Molly Archer, William Marsden and Becky Banks all competed in sabre section at the finals. Ellen and Alice secured 5th and 10th place finishes respectively in the Under 12 Girls competition, Molly came 17th in the Under 16 Girls and Becky finished 19th in the Under 18 Girls competition whilst William recorded a 38th place finish in the Under 12 Boys competition. Ellen, Molly, Alice and William secured their places after competing in a challenging regional qualifying event in the East Midlands whilst Becky qualified in the hotly contested North West event. Head of PE Rob Moxon commented: "We were delighted that five of our students competed at a national final and held their own against some of the best fencers in the country.” Fencing has grown in popularity at the College after it launched an extracurricular club in 2013 having secured funding for expert coaches. Since the launch it is the second successive year College students have competed in national championships and it will be the second year running that Becky Banks will have competed in the event. Principal Bernie Hunter said: “First and foremost I'd like to congratulate all the students on their fantastic performances in a national competition. For 5 students from our College to compete at the British Youth Fencing Championships is superb and we couldn't be prouder of their achievements. It further highlights how critical extra-curricular PE is to producing future stars in a wide range of sports and draws attention to the need for adequate funding and support to provide a varied PE programme in order to develop athletes of the highest standard for UK sport.”

A FIRST TASTE FOR MATLOCK ROTARY

Cynthia Machent, President of Matlock Rotary was delighted when she received an invitation to the Board meeting of the local charity “First Taste”. It provided an excellent opportunity to present Iris Wagstaffe, FirstTaste Secretary, with a cheque for £1400. Matlock Rotarians, with the help of volunteers from First Taste, carried out a coin collection at Sainsbury’s and local shoppers responded with their usual generosity. First Taste is a charity that promotes arts, educational and stimulative activities for frail older people in residential care homes and day centres. First Taste also delivers training sessions for care staff thus enhancing their holistic care skills practice and their being able to deliver stimulative activities to the older people in their care, so many now with dementia. The service is provided mainly but not exclusively to residents in the Derbyshire Dales. As stated in part of their mission statement “Without exception our consideration is for older

U3A members and other guests and friends have a real treat in store on Monday, 30 June – the next talk in the Meg Laird series, by Joyce Buxton of Tideswell, about her amazing exploits trekking in the Himalayas, reaching Everest basecamp. Joyce’s adventures began after she recovered from very serious illness in 2005, and decided to raise funds for the department of the Royal Hallamshire Hospital in Sheffield, where she had been successfully treated. Her sponsored treks have helped to fund a pillcam (a tiny video camera which is swallowed) and a compact data recorder, both of which are used in diagnosing diseases of the digestive system. The talk will be at 2.00 pm in Baslow Village Hall on Monday, 30 June, when Bakewell U3a is very happy to welcome all comers - why not join us and find out a bit more about our group

activities, as well as listening to Joyce. Entrance is £3 and includes light refreshments after the talk. Joyce’s response to severe illness and recovery is an inspiration – so come along and be inspired! On May 19th the group held a slide show and talk which was given by Nicola from Medical Detection Dogs. A raffle and donation raised £106 for the charity which helps people with a range of ailments. Members were particularly interested in the Medical Alert dogs which are trained to help people with type one diabetes, to make them and others aware when the individual is becoming hypoglycaemic. Meetings are held at the Buckingham Hotel, Buxton at 7pm on the third Monday of each month. For more information, phone Hon. Sec Sue Barber on 01298 871644 between 9am and 6pm to leave a message.

Local textile artist Monica Haddock will lead the group and welcomes people of any ability, age or gender to come along.

Materials and refreshments will be provided to participants. We will be collecting fabrics, yarns and unwanted t-shirts for use doing braid making, card weaving, crochet and more, so if you have anything you could donate please contact Margie or Fiona at the Medway Centre on 01629 813638, or alternatively just come along with any items on Friday 20th June. The Craft Afternoon is for anyone who wants to mix with others from all generations in a relaxed atmosphere and learn new crafts.

Residents are invited to attend the upcoming Emergency Services Display Day to gain an insight into the work of the police, ambulance and fire and rescue services. Officers from the Buxton and Fairfield Safer Neighbourhood Team will be showcasing how police help to keep the communities safe during the free event on Sunday, June 8. The policing team will be hosting a stall at the Pavilion Gardens Promenade in Buxton and will be chatting to passersby about the steps that they can take to protect themselves and their property from criminals. The officers will be giving visitors a closer look behind the scenes to see what operations and initiatives they have been involved in to help keep the local neighbourhoods safe. This includes Operation Jericho which focuses on tackling speeding and nuisance drivers on roads in Buxton and surrounding areas. The 17th Emergency Services Display Day also showcases the other organisations that work with

emergency services in the Peak District and High Peak, including mountain rescue, cave rescue, the Search and Rescue Dogs Associations, the air ambulance, Community First Responders, Red Cross Fire and Emergency Support, Neighbourhood Watch and many more. There will be static displays by each of the emergency services where you can ask questions, pick up information, tips and advice, or take a look at their specialist equipment and vehicles. Throughout the day there will be arena displays, with a simulated road traffic accident, and a fire call. Children attending the event will have the opportunity to try out a mock cave, climb on board a fire engine and also explore the Smoke House tent. The free Emergency Services Day takes place at Buxton’s Pavilion Gardens from 10.30am to 4.15pm on Sunday, June 8. To speak to your local Safer Neighbourhood Team call 101, the nonemergency number for Derbyshire police.

children will be taking a look at pond life when they meet at the Whistlestop Centre in Matlock Bath. Come along on Monday 16th June and explore what lurks beneath the surface of the centre’s pond, then make mud pictures of the things you have found. Nature Tots is suitable for

10am-11.30am and costs £3 per child and £1.50 for a second child. The price includes a drink and a snack. Places are limited, so please book in advance – contact Derbyshire Wildlife Trust on 01773 881188 during normal office hours. For more information visit www.derbyshirewildlifetrust.org.uk

many. General health maintenance, signs of illness, mites and moulting were all discussed, along with many other topics we’re sure you won’t want to read about while you’re eating your breakfast. Some members have been

ROTARY DINNER CHALLENGE Matlock Rotary President, Cynthia Machent, held a “Come Dine with Me” series of evenings hosting fellow Rotarians, guests and friends as part of a fundraising “Presidents Challenge”. At each of the dinner parties, five guests enjoyed an excellent three course meal all provided on a strict maximum budget of £20.00. Needless to say, the guests needed little encouragement from Cynthia, to bring along a bottle or two and to make a contribution of £10.00 per person for the beautifully presented food. The bonus for the evening was the knowledge that the proceeds would go to a charity chosen by President Cynthia.

The result is that this series of events has raised £520.00

and this will be donated to the Greenaway Workshops for the

disabled in Darley Dale at a date in the near future.

The bi-annual visit by Matlock-Eaubonne Twinning Association members to Eaubonne took place over the May Day Bank Holiday Weekend. Thirty members made their own travel arrangements and were accompanied by their hosts to the Welcome Buffet at the newly refurbished Salle des Fêtes at the Eaubonne Town Hall on the Friday evening. Several of the group were making their first visit. Having spent the rest of the evening with our hosts, the group re-assembled on Saturday morning at the Conciergerie on the Ile de la Cité in Paris for a visit to the old Royal Palace, which became a notorious prison during the French Revolution. Queen MarieAntoinette was held there before her execution by guillotine in October 1793. In the afternoon we were treated to an interesting walk around the Marais area

of Paris, before having a meal together at Chartier’s Restaurant – one of the oldest (and busiest) restaurants in Paris. Our group of 60 or so was a small proportion of the 1500 they cater for each day! The Sunday is usually a day spent with our hosts, but this year, an optional visit was arranged to see the underground caves and quarries at Pontoise – a town about 10 miles from Eaubonne. Many of these underground structures are centuries old, and give an interesting perspective on the history of the town. In the evening, we returned to the Salle des Fêtes for the Gala event, again a buffet meal with entertainment provided by a local band. The new Mayor of Eaubonne, Monsieur Grégoire Dublineau, welcomed the Matlock visitors, and promised continued support of the

Twinning from the Eaubonne Council. A presentation from the META Committee was made to Monsieur Franҫois Balageas, the out-going Mayor, in appreciation of the friendship he had shown to the Matlock visitors during his thirteen years in charge. The majority of the party returned to Matlock on the Monday, but several of the group, whose links with their hosts are long established, stayed on for one or more days in their company. A highly enjoyable weekend was had by all – particularly by the four primary aged children who were part of the Matlock group. We now look forward to the visit of the Eaubonnais in 2015. Anyone wanting more information about the Twinning between Matlock and Eaubonne should contact the META Secretary, Brian Smith or the Publicity Officer, Peter Vincent.

OF MICE AND WI-WOMEN

Adorable felt mice were the order of the day at Rowsley WI on the 8th May. Heather Vickers arrived with her mobile haberdashery and following a quick demonstration we jumped up to get our hands on the felt templates and embroidery silks ready to make our own jasmine scented vibrant vermin. Whilst some of us were blanket stitching and stuffing without a second thought, others of us needed some tips and hints to get started and keep going. It didn’t matter how experienced or how hasty we were to finish, with the addition of a good brew and a lovely supper – and all of us helping one another out – we had a family of felt favourites by the end of the

evening. Some will be gifted, some cherished, some pin cushioned – but all have their individual characters and are unique, much like the good ladies of the WI.

Next month we are popping up to Elton for a talk by the fabulous Gillian Sprakes all about

brightening up wool: ‘To Dye For’ – we’d love to see you there. Contact rowsleywi@Hotmail.co.uk

project that GCSE and A level art classes and staff have been working on since the 2012 London Games. The day was a celebration event led by Maria as part of the ‘Get Set to Make A Change’ project (http://www.makeachange. org.uk/about/) which supports young people to organise community projects inspired by the Olympic and Paralympic values to encourage people in their local area to come together to take part in sport, be more active and lead healthier, balanced lifestyles. East Midlands Olympic Legacy Officer, Gaynor Nash also attended. The day was filmed by the Get Set to Make a Change team. Maria, who then spent the gloriously sunny day at the school leading volleyball workshops with years 6 through to 12, said, “I had a fantastic day. I'm in awe of the work you are doing at Highfields. You really are changing lives. It was an absolute pleasure to be involved in some small way.” Highfields School Sports Coordinator, Jayne Allen, said, “It was an amazing day. The art work looks so professional. Maria is an inspiration and the Highfields student ‘Legacy Leaders’ can be very proud of their achievements, as always.” Pupils from South Darley Primary School and All Saints Juniors in Matlock also got involved. Paul Wilde, Headteacher at South Darley, said, “The students certainly enjoyed Friday and can't wait to play this new sport.”

The SportsFest was formally opened by Baslow’s youngest celebrity, 17-week-old Jonathan Beecroft, who was completely unfazed by the whole affair. Using ‘Le Tour’ as a backdrop to the day, cycling took centre stage with kids of all ages racing against the clock in a mini-time trial competition.

brilliant day and it was great to see the whole community with people of all ages joining in and taking part in a whole range of sports. There were many highlights too numerous to mention but seeing a little girl ride, wobbling around the course on her bike for the first time unaided, really heartened me. Bling your Bike was also hilarious as the children, some albeit reluctantly, donned teddy bears, fire engines and police cars in an effort to catch the judge’s attention. “We received the most generous financial support from the Peak District National Park’s Sustainable Development Fund as well as help from all corners of our community and we are

GOLD FOR DALEDIVA

Derbyshire chorus DaleDiva beat off stiff competition to take gold in its class and third place overall in an international singing competition. The Matlock Bath-based women’s a-cappella group took the stage at Nottingham’s Royal Concert Hall on Saturday, May 10 to battle it out alongside 16 of some of the best choruses from England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and the Netherlands. Following a full day of competition assessed by an expert panel of judges from America, the Divas were named as best in their class (mid-sized chorus) and placed third overall. DaleDiva musical director Ally Law (44) said: “We’ve worked very hard for this result and the Divas did an amazing job against some tough competition.

“It’s only the sixth time we’ve taken part and we’re so proud to win best in our class and third place overall to bring two medals back to Derbyshire.” The competition is an annual event organised by global singing organisation Sweet Adelines International, based in the USA. DaleDiva is a member of Sweet Adelines’ Region 31 which features choruses from England, Ireland,

evening provided a glittering opportunity to

celebrate the efforts and achievements of students. The school played host to Paralympic swimmer, Martin Mansell, for the occasion. Martin, who won gold in the 100m backstroke at the 1988 Paralympics, inspired students with tales of those who inspired him – including a teacher with whom he is still friends. Martin is involved in helping schools to promote inclusive sports: which he attests are not about disability…only ability. The audience saw awards presented to: Gregory Davidson, Curbar School (Primary School Award); Nicole Porter (Sports Leader Award); Jacob Bower (Most Improved Award); Linda Allen (Sports Contribution Award); Rebecca Oliver (Most Promising Award); Henry Cockcroft (Sports Plus Award); Junior Girls’ Athletics Team (Team Award); Andrew Davies (Sports Personality Award).

brought to Kew from the Amazon in 1836 but all attempts at propagation failed. Then in 1849, Paxton obtained a specimen which he planted in a purposebuilt tank at Chatsworth. Under carefully monitored conditions, the lily flowered within a year. It was the rigid leaf vein structure of Victoria Regia – in effect a natural feat of

WIRKSWORTH CIRCUIT CHARITY WALK On Sunday 22nd June the first Wirksworth Circuit Charity Walk is set to start between 10.00am and Noon from the Leisure Centre. This year’s charity is Progressio ICS that supports young UK volunteers to make a real difference to some of the world’s poorest people in developing countries. On their return these volunteers get involved and organise social action in the UK inspired by their overseas experience. The plan is to make this 5 mile walk an annual event, the nearest Sunday to the Summer Solstice, raising funds for charities. It’s an excuse for you to look down at the views of our precious unique town from the hillside surrounding it whilst improving your health and maybe enjoying a pint en route. Sponsorship forms available from Wirksworth Leisure Centre and Tradelinks or electronically from info@therenniepartnership.co.uk

collaborated with H.G. Stokes, his son-in-law. Other work extended to the schools and houses of the Estate villages of Beeley, Pilsley and Rowsley, along with properties including Darley House at Darley Dale, Park Lodge at Baslow, Beeley Lodge, Russian Cottage, Swiss Cottages at Matlock Green, initial work on Burton Closes at Bakewell, and the Crescent slopes at Buxton. In addition, Paxton became a Director of the original Midland Line Railway, taking a hand in the design of several local stations and station masters’ houses. His station building at Rowsley, where distinguished visitors to Chatsworth used to disembark, still survives at Peak Shopping Village. He left his mark further afield in buildings at Scarborough, Birkenhead, Liverpool, Glasgow and Dundee, also

in properties built for the Rothschild family in France. He was additionally involved in the early days of town planning in London. Victoria Regia and the Crystal Palace To the great delight of the Duke of Devonshire, Joseph Paxton had, meanwhile, become the first person to succeed in propagating the gigantic water lily known as Victoria Regia. With leaves up to five feet across, the original plant had been

engineering – which Paxton adapted in designing the vast glass edifice known as the Crystal Palace, built in Hyde Park in 1851 to house Prince Albert’s Great Exhibition of the ‘Arts and Manufacture of All Nations’. Almost 250 plans for this record-breaking construction had been rejected before the g r a t e f u l acceptance o f

Paxton’s design. He was rewarded with a knighthood. Following the Great Exhibition, the Crystal Palace was dismantled and rebuilt on Sydenham Hill, where it became known as the People’s Palace, sadly to be destroyed in a fire in 1936. The Great Conservatory at Chatsworth had been demolished in 1920; today a yew maze stands on the site. Paxton’s 331ft conservatory wall of 1848 is still intact. Paxton further derived considerable wealth from his investments in railways and shipping. He served as President of the Royal Horticultural Society and was linked to many botanical and horticultural publications. He was also MP for Coventry from 1854 until his death, at his home in Sydenham, in June 1865. His body was brought back to Edensor for burial; a memorial inside the church commemorates Sir Joseph and Lady Paxton and two of their children who died at an early age.

RECOGNISE THIS HOUSE?

It is, of course, Rowdale Toll Bar Cottage, close to the roundabout by the Hassop bookshop and café. It was the subject of the Bakewell and District Historical Society’s May meeting, when one of our members, Ann Hall, shared with us her fascinating – and ongoing – research into the families who had lived in the house as toll collectors in the 19th century. Ann’s interest had been aroused when she was working on the Rowdale dig last summer in connection with the Anglo-Saxon Cross in Bakewell Churchyard. Researching old routeways she realized that there had been a turnpike road between Chatsworth and Buxton, built by the 6th

Duke of Devonshire. This ran behind the building we see today. The first toll collector, George Heathcote, was appointed in 1817. He was succeeded by the Firth family, the Raby family, the Jones family and finally the Goodwin family. In 1878

the road was “disturnpiked” or “thrown open”. Consulting various records, Ann realised that more than one member of the family was needed to work as toll collector at busy times. When the road was quiet the occupants

could follow other occupations such as road mender or framework knitter. She had been able to follow the fortunes of members of the families and had built up a record of their lives. The Historical Society’s Old House Museum is enjoying a busy season with lots of group guided visits keeping our tour guides and caterers busy, the new children’s trail involving the wonderful Rameses the ram and events linked to the commemoration of World War 1. For information on the Society or the exciting programme at our awardwinning museum contact Jan Stetka, 01629 813727 or Anita Spencer, 01629 3642.

There was this ‘ere gardener who used to put the contents of his midden on to his allotment. “That’s funny,” he said, “I don’t remember putting all those tomato plants in.” This and dozens of other earthy reminiscences were the stuff of David Bell’s talk to Tideswell History Club in April. Having written many books on local subjects, he went on Radio Derby to ask for people’s memories of early primitive sanitation. The feedback that he received was tremendous and so his talk was peppered with these anecdotes. From time immemorial, toilets had consisted of a hole (or two) in a plank of wood with a midden underneath, or a collectable bucket if you were lucky. The family of a bride-to-be thought that they would smarten up the privy by painting the seat a pale green colour. But in her excitement about the

forthcoming day she went and used it too soon. Many swabs of methylated spirit later, she was able to continue with the nuptials. David takes his inspiration from the famous American book “The Specialist”, which tells of the exploits of a professional erector of outside lavvies who could lovingly relate the creation of 3 and 4 seaters. This book was published in the 1930’s and has never been out of print since. One of the stories concerns a farmer who had him make a roughcut seat with square holes because he didn’t want his workmen spending too much time in there. Remarkably, David heard about and photographed similar shaped seats at Haddon Hall. His correspondents certainly got up to a lot of stunts. “There was a collier who used to take his miner’s acetylene lamp down to the privy with him and one time he

dropped his spent carbide down the hole, then, as he settled down he dropped his fag end down as well... BANG” One lady visitor asked the old chap why he didn’t have a door on his privy. “Nay,” he said, “I’ve never had a bucketful pinched yet”. Warming to his subject, David related the story of the hen that insisted on laying her egg in the bucket. It was then some young lad’s job to retrieve the egg and wash it. Things came to a head when one day the chap came in and sat upon the throne only to feel the warm caress of Rhode Island feathers on his undercarriage. Most ladies were careful to see that their “offices” were kept spotlessly clean and whitewashed, in fact one lady was said to be “privyproud”. David once inspected one that had a big turn-key behind the seat that let a cascade of fire

ashes down on to the “pyramid”. Sometimes folk kept a stick handy to flatten off the pyramid , hence the saying “getting hold of the wrong end of the stick”. Going back to brides-to-be, one night this young lady set off down the garden path with a candle in a jam-jar. Of course the wind blew the candle out and after many adventures, it was half an hour before she re-appeared in polite company. There were far too many anecdotes to print here – you will have to book David’s brilliant talk for yourselves to hear the one about “Adam’s Figleaf” plus the amazing pun of- “To lose he Trecks”. We’ve had another very successful season, thanks very much to Julie, our highly accomplished speaker-finder and the rest of the committee. See you all again with a bit of luck, next autumn.

DOWN THE GARDEN PATH

FIDLER TAYLOR’S MAY SALE

The best weather of the year, combined with the FA cup and Aviva Premiership semifinal, all kept buyers away from Fidler Taylor’s May sale. However, whilst attendance was low, the buyers were enthusiastic. The sale included a substantial quantity of hardware items from a closed Hardware Shop in South Derbyshire. Boxes of screws and fixings were selling at between £30 and £40 and other items attracted strong interest. The sale commenced with approximately 50 lots of plants and shrubs with some fine ornamental trees selling

particularly well. A restored garden bench sold at £60. Furniture continues to be disappointing although 1970s teak is on the rise with good quality G plan selling particularly well. A good extending dining table sold at £60 and a matching set of six chairs achieved £90. Two pairs of Ercol spindle back kitchen chairs achieved £50 per pair. A double scroll-ended Victorian settle achieved £100 and a pair of deep buttoned Victorian style leather armchairs with matching footstool, sold at £140. A fine presentation smokers cabinet, dated 1926,

sold to a telephone bid at £60. Pine continues to do well with a painted black blanket box achieving £90 and a similar, but larger box, selling at £85. Pictures were disappointing although a gilt framed oil portrait of a C15th soldier, which had suffered some damage, achieved £70 and a limited edition Alan Ingham print of The George at Alstonefield sold to brisk bidding at £50. Pottery and porcelain was a little hit and miss with Royal Crown Derby selling well and some mixed lots achieving enthusiastic bidding. Wedgwood green Jasper ware sold particularly well.

Mirrors continue to attract strong interest and although books are usually disappointing, a box of walking books sold at substantially more than anticipated. Collectables continue to do well with an iconic 1950s table lamp with a seated Polynesian girl against a palm tray selling at £37. The Auctioneer’s next sale is on 14 June and their summer Antique Sale has been rescheduled from Saturday 16 to Friday 15 August with viewing on Thursday 14 from 10am until 8pm. Entries are being taken.

BAGSHAWS RESIDENTIAL GEARED UP FOR NEW MORTGAGE RULES In the wake of new regulation on the way mortgages are assessed by lenders and media hype that it will now take weeks to get a mortgage appointment, local estate agency Bagshaws Residential in Bakewell is reassuring customers it is ready and has qualified mortgage consultants in all its branches who are taking appointments straight away. Indeed, Bagshaws Residential says that despite reports of longer mortgage consultations and a delay in the availability of appointments, there will be no disruption to its in-house mortgage services. Mortgage Consultant Sally Nashir was fully trained on the changes outlined in the Mortgage Market Review (MMR) weeks in advance of its launch and has already been advising customers

under the new guidelines for some time. “We have been preparing for the launch of new mortgage regulation for some time and are now advising customers based on the reforms that have been put in place,” says Bagshaws’s Mortgage Services Consultant Sally Nashir. “Despite all the doom and gloom around the changes and talk of waiting weeks to get a mortgage appointment, I would like to reassure customers that we have mortgage appointments available today so home buyers will not have to wait for weeks to use our service.” According to the local agent, applying for a mortgage will now require a greater level of input from customers, but this is in the interests of making sure buyers can afford their loans should interest rates

increase. “We are very positive on the changes which we do not think will impede buyers’ ability to get a mortgage they can afford,” Sally continues. Bagshaws Residential welcomes the changes in the new mortgage regulation which should help to ensure home loans are affordable in the longer term. As part of its parent company Sequence,

Rural communities in the Peak District are not immune from the problems which face rural life throughout the country. Populations are falling, especially as young, active people with children can no longer afford to live in an area with high property prices. The rise of the supermarket culture

threatens local shops, but the supermarkets are not just round the corner, they're a couple of bus rides away. By joining together, local communities are answering the question of distance and isolation. For over 20 years the Bakewell and Eyam Community Transport minibuses have helped link

Philip Maycock, Nick Jenkins, Marcus Smith, Martin Bonsall, David Watts, Andrew Hodkin, Pete Denton and Jake Hodkin from Matlock recently completed a 300 mile cycle for Arthritis Research UK. The money raised so far is nearly 20k. Day 1, Starting from Crystal Palace – Ferry crossing at Dover was just short of 100 miles and was expected to be the toughest!! However day 2 due to severe weather conditions, wind and nonstop rain proved to be the toughest challenge, the tour organisers said this was the worst conditions they had ever experienced for the time of year. With 120 cyclists doing this event for different charities, only 40 cyclists completed this day including all 8 from Team Megan – 75 miles completed. Day 3 was slow going due to tired legs, but the sun was shining and this was set to be a most enjoyable day as we all cycled together through northern France, enjoying the pretty villages and surroundings – 65 miles completed. The final day saw the

return of the wind and rain but with only 60 miles to complete it seemed to go fairly quickly to the holding point just 3 miles short of the Eiffel Tower. All 120 cyclists were re-grouped and then cycled the final 3 miles and the lead-up to the Eiffel Tower together, where family and friends were there to great their loved ones. We would like to thank all our family and friends for all the support and all the kind donations throughout the campaign and a massive thanks to all our sponsors and also to the support and donations from local businesses. This has been such an experience and the Maycock family are so overwhelmed with the continued support and kindness. “We are so lucky to be surrounded by so many fantastic people and this is something we will never ever forget”. With collection boxes to count up and other sponsor money to collect in we are expecting to reach an amazing total of £20,000.

And for David Whitnell, a few years ago we took out a substantial mixed unruly hedge which has now been replaced with a hornbeam, thought to be more resistant to climate change than beech. It tolerates poorer soils and exposed sites better than beech. It is a hardy, native, semi evergreen (holds its copper coloured leaves through winter), with green catkins in late spring through to autumn, turning to fruit suitable for wildlife. It is easy to keep Hornbeam to a neat formal shape, or it is often a component in an informal mixed native hedge because it's coppery leaves are kept on the plant and they provide some winter wildlife cover. Clip once a year in late summer (this is important to help the plant retain its winter colour). The hornbeam produces hard finely grained timber which was traditionally used to produce mallets and tool handles, coach wheels and skittles, the moving parts of pianos and the gear pegs of windmills but thankfully not bikes! It is great for kids to climb in due to its short twisted trunk and low branches. The name Hornbeam comes from the Old English word "horn" which means "tough" and the "beam" which translates to "tree." The Latin name is Carpinus betulus.

with us, you will be helping us sustain our vibrant community. Our staff some volunteers, some paid - are all locals who can help with information about the village and the surrounding area. If they don't know the answer themselves, they'll almost certainly know who to ask.” More recently still, the villagers in Bamford clubbed together to buy their remaining pub, the Anglers Rest, when it came up for sale. They raised £260,000, saw off some stiff competition, and have now not only a thriving village pub but a post office, cafe and general hub for village events. They employ local people and e n c o u r a g e volunteering too. Other projects linked to the pub are in train and the impetus of this local effort will reverberate into the coming years. Youlgrave is another village which has acted to maintain its community. The Community Land Trust has raised funds and is working with the Peak District Rural Housing Association to build affordable housing for local people. The inaugural turfturning was a month or two ago. In an area where government funding has been a decreasing factor for many years, local action has become more important. “What we can't do alone, we can do together” , and once you've proved you can there is a limitless scope for action. The Bakewell Green Festival takes place at Bakewell Agricultural Centre on Saturday 12th July. Entry is free. Come along and help us Celebrate Sustainable Living in the Peak District from 10am to 6pm.

elderly and disabled people with local services. They will be sharing their experience and knowledge at the Bakewell Green Festival on July 12th at Bakewell Agricultural Centre. Over fifteen years ago the village shop and post office at Litton opened in the Old Smithy when the regular village shop closed. Staffed by one or two paid employees and a rota of willing volunteers, it has not only survived but expanded over the years. The regular stock is provided by the Cooperative store in Matlock but their spirit and care of customers is all home grown. News of community members is shared with their joys and troubles, and other stock is bought in to supply demand – just ask . . . The local Farm Shop provides meat and other local supplies include eggs and sticky toffee pudding! Winster, too, has its village shop, not quite as old but certainly as well used. Their web site states that “owned by the people of Winster, our traditional Village Shop can sell you anything from a loaf of bread to a sledge. We are a newsagents, and an offlicense, and we also house Winster Post Office. We take credit and debit cards, and can give cashback on Debit Cards. We can top up mobile phones and we even have a small cafe area - with wifi access. Whether you are living or staying in Winster, Elton or Bonsall, camping at Barn Farm (just a couple of miles away in Birchover) or just stopping to pick up a sandwich as you pass through, you'll find a suprisingly wide range of produce, much of it locally sourced.

Paul Johnson Tree Services Ltd Make your hedges beautiful and trees safe for L’Eroica 2014

Carrying out first class tree work for Champions since 2000 Soon, the “L’Eroica Britannia” Vintage Cycling Festival will be upon us. I’m sure that many of us will recall our ‘Golden Cycling Days’ of yesteryear. Cars were few, leaving clear roads for the many cyclists to enjoy both their leisure and racing cycling. They were wonderful days, with bicycle frames made by individual craftsmen, whose names became synonymous with intricate hand cut lug work, attention to detail, resulting in a bicycle that could be used for touring and racing, and as everyday transport, “A bike for all reasons”. I’m sure that we will all enjoy and wonder at the vintage cycles, when “L’Eroica Brittania” arrives. The picture shows myself, racing on a machine that these days may be considered ancient, but nevertheless, still a work of art... David Whitnell by kind permission. David Whitnell, still smiling, still charming and still letting us tend to his trees and hedges after all these years... So before the

supporters and riders come past your house, let us make sure that your trees and hedges are fit for a champion’s photo finish. Call Paul Johnson now on 07940 758964. For removal of overhanging branches, cutting back hedges, trimming trees. Please book your work early to ensure we can fit you in in time.

CONNECTING CROMFORD – NEW VILLAGE EVENT ON 21st JUNE 2014 Entering its second decade Celebrating Cromford has a new event aimed at connecting and featuring performances by people living, working or otherwise associated with the village. Connecting Cromford will take place on the 21st of June 2014 on The Bell Inn’s boules pitch, featuring folk music, singer songwriters and rock bands. Steve Rawlinson, Connecting Cromford organiser, said, “This is quite exciting for people in Cromford as it provides an opportunity to take part and show people what you can do. Music has always been a part of Celebrating Cromford but this is the first time that a single event will be delivered by people in the village themselves.� Steve has some experience of staging events, last year organising a ‘Garden Party’ at The Bell, and in the past has promoted the highly successful ‘Band Explosion’ at The Boat Inn; a night providing an opportunity for new bands and artists to perform. Steve said, “One of the things I want to do at Connecting Cromford is to provide a ‘Band Explosion’ type experience. Basically, bands who don’t have enough material yet to get gigs, bands and musicians writing their own material or who are playing the ‘wrong’ sort of music will be given a slot to perform perhaps for the first time in front of friends and family�

THE ANGLERS REST, BAMFORD What A Difference A Year Makes

12 months ago the Anglers Rest could have been labelled as 'another failing rural pub', a situation that a number of local residents decided had to change if the pub was to close and leave the village without a community focal point. Worse still was that the Post Office had also decided to close the village post office, and that if the newly formed Bamford Community Society failed to secure the purchase of the pub, that vital service would be lost forever too. It was indeed a roller coaster ride. In the summer of last year, the owners Admiral Taverns agreed to sell the pub to the Society, but weeks later reneged on the deal and exchanged contracts with a property developer. Both parties though had not

anticipated the level of opposition to that deal and with the help of Andrew Bingham MP, the deal to sell the Anglers to the Society was back on, and two months later we were handed the keys. What happened next typified the villages’ spirit and determination as dozens volunteered to make the pub warm and welcoming again, achieved by painting, cleaning and varnishing and bringing the pub back to life again after 10 years of neglect. Within 3 months, half the pub had also been transformed into the new Rest cafe, a bright and cheerful space which has proved to be a great success in a short time, attracting both locals and visitors on a regular basis. This was enhanced too by the addition of Bistro style fayre served on Friday and Saturday evenings. But the story doesn't end there, as in January this year the post office opened up in the pub too. Buying the pub, and turning it from a loss making eyesore into a profitable community hub, has certainly not been an easy task. Bamford Community Society appointed a board of directors, who in turn have employed a professional team to run the day-to-day affairs of the pub and cafe. But the real impact has been the sense of ownership the community now has of its prized asset, and the determination to deliver much more than a business plan for growth. Without doubt the biggest achievement has been to bring the community together and give them a sense of what can be achieved by acting together, and that the reward is the new atmosphere of friendship and anticipation for better things in the village. So why not visit and see what we have achieved. We have bands and singers booked twice every month, regular monthly folk sessions, and a quiz every Wednesday evening. We serve freshly cooked food and a range of great beers, but most importantly this all comes with a huge smile from a very appreciative village. The Anglers Rest. Taggs Knoll, Bamford.

TRADITIONS OF WHITSUNTIDE

For almost a century prior to 1967, the old Christian holy day of Whit Monday was a Bank Holiday in England. This year Whit Monday falls on 9 June, a fortnight later than Spring Bank Holiday, the secular upstart that replaced it as an official national holiday. Easter Day and Whit Sunday are separated by seven weeks. The importance of Whit Sunday on the Christian calendar is that it was on this day, according to the Acts of the Apostles, that the Holy Spirit descended on the Apostles. As they preached to a multitude of ‘men out of every nation under heaven’ each listener miraculously heard the words in their own tongue. On that day about 3,000 people were baptised into the Christian faith. So it was that Whit Sunday was to become a popular day for the baptism of adults. Traditionally participants were robed in white for the ceremony, giving rise to the original name White Sunday. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicles tell us that Mathild, wife of William the Conqueror, was hallowed Queen of England at Westminster Abbey on ‘hwitan sunnan deag’ in 1067. Whitsun Ales In times past, most parishes had a church ale-house where Whitsun Ales, along with other Ales throughout the year, were customarily brewed for a fund-raising feast which everyone was expected to attend, paying a fair price for their victuals. A typical scene in many Peakland villages saw a carnival atmosphere with

music, dancing, bowling, archery, games and perhaps a fair. The income from Whitsun Ales helped to support the parish poor and to pay for repairs to the parish church. That intention is clearly laid out in an old document describing how the citizens of two Derbyshire villages ‘were formerly required by mutual agreement to brew four ales, and every ale of one quarter of malt, and at their own costs and charges ... and every inhabitant of Ockbrook shall be at the several ales, and every husband and his wife were to pay twopence, every cottager one penny ... all the profits and advantage, coming of the said ales, to the use and behoof of the said church of Elvaston.’ Any inhabitant who was absent at an ‘Ale’ had to forward his contribution or pay double at the next. Few local customs survive to remind us that Whit Sunday was formerly celebrated as a major event. The traditional Whit Walk, or Procession of Witness, used to bring out whole villages onto the streets in procession, members of church and chapel alike. The walk was generally led by the village band and a choir, followed by dignitaries in their Sunday best. Local societies marched behind their banner-men, tradespeople decorated their carts and lorries with flowers and paper garlands, and stops were made for preaching and hymn singing. We believe that the custom may have died out in the Peaks and Dales but it is not quite beyond living memory. Julie Bunting

site, being that of Lud’s Church which is hidden away deep within a wooded slope in Staffordshire. The Lollards, followers of John Wycliffe an early reformer, worshiped here in secret during the 15th century to avoid persecution for their beliefs. This was to be quite a lengthy hike of some 8 miles or so. I parked in a designated roadside bay close to Hen Cloud beyond Upper Hulme early one Bank Holiday Monday morning. Already a kaleidoscope string of cars were parked up on the roadside, many of them no doubt belonging to climbers or walkers like myself who awoke to brilliant sunshine and decided to get out and enjoy it. I began my walk by heading past Rockhall Cottage up a path that would take me onto The Roaches escarpment which is nearly 2 miles long and reaches a peak of 1658 feet. Until 1979 this was private land with no access and a reference in Baddeleys ‘The Peak District’ of 1939 states “walkers are liable to be stopped by keepers”. How times have changed! Rockhall used to be a gamekeeper’s cottage but is now the Don Whillan’s Memorial hut used by climbing groups. The Roaches are extremely popular with climbers of all ages, and I came across a group of excited schoolchildren being briefed on health and safety before they were allowed to tackle their first rocky challenge. Passing through a wooded area mainly consisting of hardy pine, I was shocked to see so many fallen trees, probably felled by gales earlier in the year. The path along the edge of the ridge to Roach End is simply divine, as there are fabulous panoramic views to enjoy. I could hear a

in the breeze like a Mexican wave of little white flags. Tittesworth Reservoir, a giant puddle down in the valley below, dates from 1858 and has the capacity to deliver 45 million litres of water a day to Leek and Stoke-on-Trent. Away to the

north the summit of Shutlingsloe peeped between Axe Edge and Hammerton Knowl. A pair of swifts swooped low over Doxey Pool catching insects to take back to their young, whilst somewhere in the vast expanse of moorland to my right, a curlew melodiously took to the skies. There were once rich seams of coal between here and the village of Flash at an area known as Goldsitch Moss, with some 15 small pits or workings providing employment for locals. When the pits closed, many of the cottages and smallholdings became abandoned and derelict. Now it is possible to find the

occasional pile of rubble or imprint of their foundation overgrown with scrub amongst the landscape. My descent to Roach End was hastened by the sight of an ice cream van at the side of the road and an opportunity for a sugar fix with a refreshing 99. Slurping whilst slipping and tripping, I continued downward on a rough path as indicated by the fingerpost for Gradbach. Recent heavy rain had soddened the peat moors into patches of bog and gloopy mud, but once past the worst bits, I followed a fabulous path through Gradbach Wood to a serenade by songbirds amid an air of peace and

tranquillity. With sun shining down through a canopy of fresh leaves onto verdant foliage beneath, everywhere seemed bright and very green. I arrived down by a ford through Black Brook but instead of wetting my boots by crossing, I continued

one of numerous ‘money trees’ appearing around the Peak District in the tradition of hammering in a coin and making a wish. Returning from my detour to resume walking up the track, I followed a sign for Swythamley. This led me up to an elevated ridge of moorland and a return to lofty heights and views. It was to be a rollercoaster walk as I bobbed up and down the ridge path above Back Forest. Resisting the urge for another ice cream or lolly from the bright red van, I passed through Roach End again on my figure of eight route. From here I ended my walk with an easy option on fast walking terrain by following the gated road beneath The Roaches and Five Clouds. My car was parked not far from the drive to Windygates Farm which was built in 1634 and used to be known as Winyates. This old house stands on a packhorse route leading up from the valley bottom. Before the main road was laid, strings of packhorses probably laden with salt from the plains of Cheshire or coal from pits on the moors above would have struggled to pass this way. The A53 main road dates back to 1765 when parliament sanctioned the turnpiking of a road from Newcastle-under-Lyme via Longnor and on to Hassop. It was and still is a very isolated route in parts, passing through wild and inhospitable countryside that is sparsely populated. However it was a very profitable road when used to transport chert from Longstone Edge and Bakewell to the Staffordshire potteries. On the return journeys the waggons brought crates of pottery and farm produce to sell. They had to ascend and descend the incline through the little hamlet of Upper Hulme and Crowdicote and due to the steepness of the hills, the Court of Quarter Sessions allowed 10 horses for a waggon and 5 for a

When I eventually arrived at this deep rocky cleft in the hillside, the temperature dropped dramatically as I walked between high walls of raw stone draped and drizzled with ferns and shade-loving plants.
