Among other things we have a provisional date for the fete – Saturday 4 July. It has been suggested that this year the profit be split with a share for the school, a share for the air ambulance and a share for Macmillan nurses. This last as a way of thanking them for their care for Nancy Llewellyn who played such a large part in village life during her many years living here, whether opening their lovely garden with Arthur or helping make teas, put up tents, cooking delicious cakes and many more of the jobs that make life run more smoothly. Much more detail to come but put the date in your diaries. If you would like to be involved whether with ideas or with offers of help please let Gemma Travis know on [email protected] or phone 860019. Thank you to all of you who supported the ball we ran in December. It was a really good night and much enjoyed by all who attended, thanks in no small part to the Shepton Big Band who provided a feast of music which was good to dance to but also good to listen to if you weren’t a dancer. And it made a good profit! A compliment to pass on from somebody who lives some miles away… ‘Always a good night in Ditcheat, whatever the occasion. Also it’s great because everybody helps with the clearing up! Wish all villages were the same.’ Also another busy Christmas Eve carols at the pub. Unfortunately, we couldn’t have the musical accompaniment to the carols that was so appreciated in 2018 as Chris was away and Joe rushed off his feet behind the bar. This made it difficult to pass on the numbers of which carol we were singing which meant some people only joined in half way through but, hopefully, it was still a chance to exercise the lungs and wish each other a good Christmas. We’ll try and have music next year if we go ahead with it. We will try returning to Alhamptonians - evenings again now that the hectic few weeks are past. As always the first Thursday in the month – 6th February and 5th March – someone is always there from about 8.15pm but come whenever suits you for a drink or a coffee and a chance to catch up with neighbours. And don’t forget that we welcome everyone, whether our side of the river or not! Louisa Oborne 5 Ditcheat School At the time of writing, we have just returned from our Christmas break. Looking back on our last term, I realise just how busy we were! Willow class visited Bovington Tank Museum as part of their topic about the Battle of Britain. The day started with the children learning about the roles undertaken by people at home such as the land army, the home guard and ARP wardens. They had a chance to dress up and sound the air raid sirens. The children then had the opportunity to build a replica tank next to a real tank. Following this, the children went to see the rest of the museum and were particularly moved by the trench experience where they were able to walk in the footsteps of a soldier from recruiting offices to the front line trenches. 6 Last term we also had the 'grand opening' of our library with author Joffre White. The library was completely refurbished by Kate Knowles, Hannah Mascall and Chloe Mason who all work at the school. It is now a wonderful place for children to read and share books. Maple, Cherry and Holly classes had a visit from an architect and experienced constructing different buildings and habitats linked to their topics. Holly class even built a mini Stonehenge! Then, of course, we had our wonderful nativities performed by Maple, Cherry and Holly classes while Willow class wrote and ran the carol service in the church. This term we are looking forward to trips to see the starling murmuration, a visit to Bristol and a science explorer dome! 7 Christmas in Ditcheat A record number of people from across the benefice joined the Christmas lunch in the Jubilee hall on December 13th. Our two local police constables helped to serve and we were entertained by the children from Maple Class at Ditcheat School, who came with their head teacher Victoria Withers to sing carols. Their rousing rendition of ‘Ding dong merrily on high’ put us all in festive mood and everyone loved having them. As in previous years we made a donation of £500 to the Julian Trust Night shelter for the homeless in Bristol. Maple Class setting the atmosphere for the lunch We gave a donation of £200 to the Food Bank in Midsomer Norton at the beginning of December, together with donations of food towards Christmas hampers they make up for needy The village lunch team: Liz Gould, Chrys families.

  • Shape Trail Instructions and Route
    Street Baptist Church Holiday Bible Club 2021 Summer Shape Trail Instructions and route This is a car treasure hunt for all ages. It is a 20-mile drive around the beautiful Somerset countryside, including some out-of-the-way places you may never have been before. The route is given below with a number of “checkpoints” where you have to search for a shape. Once you have found the shape, check the clue sheet for the phrase that goes with it and write it in the box on this sheet. When you have found all the shapes you will be able to read the message – a bit of encouragement as we move out of the Covid restrictions. The trail takes two to three hours to complete and you could easily make a day of it. Or you might choose to split it over several days. We have suggested some ice-cream stops along the way. You can drive the trail whenever you choose but we are planning a picnic and games at the destination in Evercreech on Saturday 28th August between 12.00 and 3.00pm. So if you can do it on that morning, please bring a picnic lunch and meet at the end. If you complete the route earlier, you can, of course, drive straight to the finish on that morning to join in the picnic and games. The hunt is just for fun, but all children who arrive at the playground on Saturday 28th August will receive a small prize. Although the majority of the trail is on minor roads, there are some major roads to cross and short sections along major roads.

  • The 'Great' Battle of the Croscombe Cross and My Village Ancestry
    The ‘Great’ Battle of the Croscombe Cross and my village ancestry By Mark Wareham Updated 26th August 2013 In the late 19th century there was an uprising over the preservation of the medieval cross in the village of Croscombe in Somerset. This incident was as a result of efforts by the authorities to destroy the ancient monument and I was delighted to discover that a couple of my ancestors and other family members were directly involved and that one of them was one of the ringleaders. This is a brief story of the skirmish with same notes on the Say, Carver and Marshman families of the Croscombe. I shall start with descriptions of the ‘battle’ from two authors. From ‘Old Crosses of Somerset, 1877, by C Pooley’ “Some years ago, an incident of no little importance occurred in connection with this Cross, which deserves to be recorded. The local way-wardens, thinking the Cross an incumbrance, endeavoured to remove it. It seems that the removal of so ancient a landmark in historical associations of the village proved a graver and more serious matter than these enlightened wardens of the way were aware of. The inhabitants gathered around the old Cross, and came to its defence with bold and determined hearts, bent upon its preservation, but not before the shaft had been hurled to the ground, and its finial broken in twain. The demolishing party having been driven off, a flag was hoisted by the brave villagers bearing upon it the legend ‘BE FAITHFUL;’ this was struck during the melee but as quickly regained, and the standard of the Cross again waived proudly over the heads of the loyal and Christian defenders.
