GENERAL The parishes of Morton, Stonebroom and Shirland are former mining villages situated close to the Derbyshire towns of Alfreton, Chesterfield and Matlock and within easy reach of the Peak District National Park. The villages are easily accessible from Junctions 28 and 29 of the M1 or the A38; there are also excellent rail links to and from Chesterfield and Alfreton. Morton and Stonebroom have been a United Benefice for approximately 35 years and were joined by Shirland in 1998. We are now part of the newly formed Hardwick Deanery with a recently appointed Area Dean who actively encourages parishes to work together and share challenges and opportunities. The area represented by our three churches has a population of approximately 5000 people and this is expected to increase progressively with planned housing development. In common with many rural congregations we reflect an older age demographic but whose energy and commitment belie their years. During our Vacancy period we have been blessed by the input of one retired member of the clergy in addition to three associate priests who all reside in the local area who have all helped us enormously with support during quite challenging times. We also have two Lay Readers and lay worship leaders. The Rectory is situated in Shirland and is a modern four bedroom detached house with garage and large gardens. It has gas central heating. LOCAL AREA There are three renowned Country estates in the area, Chatsworth, Hardwick and Haddon; also in close proximity are the beautiful market towns of Chesterfield, Matlock, Bakewell and Buxton. Within easy reach are the National Memorial Arboretum, the popular family attractions of Alton Towers and Drayton Manor Park and the World Heritage sites of the Derwent Valley featuring the iconic mills of Arkwright and Strutt and Carsington reservoir.. SCHOOLS & EDUCATION: Holy Cross St Peter’s There are four schools on four sites within the parishes in which members of all three churches are actively involved. There are four secondary schools is in the vicinity. There are flourishing “Open the Book” and School Club teams and schools are actively St Leonard’s encouraged to use church premises for a variety of functions and the previous incumbent led assemblies once each term at each school. The “Open the Book” team includes members of the Methodist Church. Each church continually explores ways of improving and developing their work with children. There are well attended Sunday Schools within the Benefice and each church has its own dedicated Child Protection Officer. 24th March 2017 Page 2 of 17 OUTREACH: We have an active Benefice Outreach Group that fosters goodwill and social interaction between our parishes In addition to our involvement with schools, regular services are held for our more senior parishioners in the local nursing home and the village hall. We have a dedicated Vulnerable Adult Officer. We take the involvement of the laity very seriously and we endeavour to give adequate opportunities, encouragement and training to all. Members of the congregation are increasingly involved in planning and leading some worship, in pastoral visiting including home communion and baptism preparation. The further development of our outreach programme continues to be a priority with particular emphasis on young people and teenagers.

Generally speaking, people of faith are not inclined to blow their own trumpets. This report in its calm and methodical way, simply shows the significant work quietly going on through the buildings and individuals making up our faith communities. Such service to the community is offered out of personal commitment. At the same time, it also deserves acknowledgment and support from those in a position to allocate resources, because grants to faith communities are a reliable and cost effective way of delivering practical help to those who need it. Partnership gets results. This report shows what people of faith are offering. With more partners, more can be offered. David Hawtin Bishop of Repton and Convenor of the Derbyshire Church and Society Forum I am especially pleased that every effort has been taken to make this research fully ecumenical in nature, investigating the work done by churches of so many different denominations: this makes these results of even greater significance to all concerned. I hope that a consequence of churches collaborating in this effort will be an increased partnership across the denominations in the future. Throughout their history Churches have been involved in their communities and this continues today. In the future this involvement is likely to result in increasing partnerships, not only with each other but also with other agencies and community groups.

  • Morton Parish Council
    Morton Parish Council At a meeting of the Parish Council held in the Rectory Rooms on the 16th March 2011. Informal Session. Police. The crime figures have been received from PCSO Gary Green and there was one recorded crime in Morton during January that was in respect of one incident of criminal damage on Westwood Gardens. There were no reports of nuisance made within Morton during January. There were two recorded crimes in February relating to one theft on Church Lane and a burglary on Pilsley Road. A request was made for further information regarding the theft on Church Lane as no one present knew anything about this incident. PC Andrew Cropper gave a verbal report to the meeting and confirmed that the initial activity on the road safety campaign with motorists on the A61 near Stonebroom School had been a success; a similar campaign will be launched in Morton in the near future. Also, two people have been fined for fly-tipping following information that was given to the police by local people, which is excellent news. It was reported that there had been two males in the Village visiting properties and saying that they were Jehovah’s Witnesses; it was felt that these people may not be genuine and the police noted this. There is a lot of litter in the Village at the moment and it was agreed that Councillor Edson will approach Morton Primary School again in order to try and arrange another litter pick involving the local school children. Unfortunately there is a growing problem with motorbikes and quad bikes again on the old colliery tip and the police are doing what they can to minimise the impact of this nuisance that may also lead to a serious accident if it continues.
