Quarr Abbey Issue 24 NEWSLETTER Autumn 2019 Unity of Life The man had just parked his bicycle and was taking off his helmet when, seeing me, he sort of abruptly asked: “Tell me, Father: What should I do so that Friends of Quarr what I do when I am praying in this amazing church and what I do outside The Friends are pleased to report that become one thing?” – “Good question”, I replied “How can our life be ‘one’?” the retiring collection from the Concert This question concerns all, but in a sense, it lies at the heart of monastic of Sacred Music, performed in the identity. The monk strives for unity. The Latin word monachus, which gave Abbey Church by the Orpheus Singers the English ‘monk’, comes from the Greek ‘monos’: ‘one’. The monks’ life in aid of our Accessible Paths Project, tends towards unity. They pursue it and already manifest it: a community at amounted to £712. The Gift Aid of £118 prayer is a sign of unity. will go to the abbey. It is not always easy, though. On the one hand, one has to consent to positive I would like to thank the Orpheus Singers on behalf of the Friends for tensions such as prayer and work; solitude and community; retreat and performing the concert and helping us hospitality. At first, they may be seen as tearing us apart. Well managed, they with our fundraising efforts in aid of this actually create a dynamic. The different poles of our lives begin to enrich one project. another. -

Historic Environment Action Plan the Undercliff
Directorate of Community Services Director Sarah Mitchell Historic Environment Action Plan The Undercliff Isle of Wight County Archaeology and Historic Environment Service October 2008 01983 823810 archaeology @iow.gov.uk Iwight.com HEAP for the Undercliff. INTRODUCTION This HEAP Area has been defined on the basis of geology, topography, land use and settlement patterns which differentiate it from other HEAP areas. This document identifies essential characteristics of the Undercliff as its geomorphology and rugged landslip areas, its archaeological potential, its 19 th century cottages ornés /marine villas and their grounds, and the Victorian seaside resort character of Ventnor. The Area has a highly distinctive character with an inner cliff towering above a landscape (now partly wooded) demarcated by stone boundary walls. The most significant features of this historic landscape, the most important forces for change and key management issues are considered. Actions particularly relevant to this Area are identified from those listed in the Isle of Wight HEAP Aims, Objectives and Actions. ANALYSIS AND ASSESSMENT Location, Geology and Topography • The Undercliff is identified as a discrete Landscape Character Type in the Isle of Wight AONB Management Plan (2004, 132). • The Area lies to the south of the South Wight Downland , from which it is separated by vertical cliffs forming a geological succession from Ferrugunious Sands through Sandrock, Carstone, Gault Clay, Upper Greensand, Chert Beds and Lower Chalk (Hutchinson 1987, Fig. 6). o The zone between the inner cliff and coastal cliff is a landslip area o This landslip is caused by groundwater lubrication of slip planes within the Gault Clays and Sandrock Beds. -
Steam Railway
STEAM RAILWAY VENTURES IN SANDOWN 1864 - 1879 - 1932 - 1936 - 1946 - 1948 - 1950 When a Beyer Peacock 2-4-0 locomotive entered the newly built Sandown Railway Station on August 23rd 1864, it was the first steam passenger train to grace the town. It is more than probable that many local people had never seen the likes of it before, even more unlikely was that many of them would ride on one, as the cost of railway travel was prohibitive for the working class at the time. The Isle of Wight Railway ran from Ryde St. Johns Road to Shanklin until 1866 when the extension to Ventnor was completed. The London & South Western Railway in conjunction with the London Brighton & South Coast Railway, joined forces to build the Railway Pier at Ryde and complete the line from Ryde St. Johns to the Pier Head in 1880. The line to Ventnor was truncated at Shanklin and closed to passengers in April 1966, leaving the 8½ miles that remains today. On August 23rd 2008 the initial section will have served the Island for 144 years, and long may it continue. The Isle of Wight Railway, in isolation on commencement from the Cowes and Newport Railway (completed in 1862) were finally connected by a branch line from Sandown to Newport in 1879. Curiously named, the Isle of Wight Newport Junction Railway, it ran via Alverstone, Newchurch, Merstone, Horringford, Blackwater and Shide. Never a financial success, it served the patrons of the line well, especially during the war years, taking hundreds of workers to the factories at East and West Cowes. -

Updates to tasks / matters arising from meeting 6 December 2018 Bus Stops – Mark Earp and a team of four inspected as many rural bus stops as they could. It was felt that by and large these were pretty good but a few do need improvement. All bus stops had a post and a current timetable. There had been grant out for sustainable travel called the “Innovation fund” Mark wondered if anyone had applied for concreate pads, to be funded, at any of the rural bus stop locations? The General Manager for Southern Vectis Mr Richard Tyldsley has been invited to the next LAF meeting. Prior to this LAF members / guests should take time to look at the rural bus stop locations in their areas and using their local knowledge have given feedback to the LAF of any unsafe or redundant ones. -

Just as the last copy of Wight- wash was being delivered, the news came that Ventnor Brewery was to be closed. I think I can speak for everyone in the Isle of Wight branch of CAMRA when I say we owe an enormous debt of gratitude to Xavier Baker and all those involved in Ventnor Brewery; not only for their great beers, but also for the dedi- cation and enthusiasm that they put into pro- moting real ale on the Isle of Wight. We look forward to seeing Xav at the Pub and Beer of the Year Awards later this year when he will once again, and very sadly for the last time, collect the award for CAMRA's most popular Island beer - Ventnor Golden Bitter.

HEAP for Isle of Wight Rural Settlement
Isle of Wight Parks, Gardens & Other Designed Landscapes Historic Environment Action Plan Isle of Wight Gardens Trust: March 2015 2 Foreword The Isle of Wight landscape is recognised as a source of inspiration for the picturesque movement in tourism, art, literature and taste from the late 18th century but the particular significance of designed landscapes (parks and gardens) in this cultural movement is perhaps less widely appreciated. Evidence for ‘picturesque gardens’ still survives on the ground, particularly in the Undercliff. There is also evidence for many other types of designed landscapes including early gardens, landscape parks, 19th century town and suburban gardens and gardens of more recent date. In the 19th century the variety of the Island’s topography and the richness of its scenery, ranging from gentle cultivated landscapes to the picturesque and the sublime with views over both land and sea, resulted in the Isle of Wight being referred to as the ‘Garden of England’ or ‘Garden Isle’. Designed landscapes of all types have played a significant part in shaping the Island’s overall landscape character to the present day even where surviving design elements are fragmentary. Equally, it can be seen that various natural components of the Island’s landscape, in particular downland and coastal scenery, have been key influences on many of the designed landscapes which will be explored in this Historic Environment Action Plan (HEAP). It is therefore fitting that the HEAP is being prepared by the Isle of Wight Gardens Trust as part of the East Wight Landscape Partnership’s Down to the Coast Project, particularly since well over half of all the designed landscapes recorded on the Gardens Trust database fall within or adjacent to the project area. -
Congregationalism in Edwardian Hampshire 1901-1914
FAITH AND GOOD WORKS: CONGREGATIONALISM IN EDWARDIAN HAMPSHIRE 1901-1914 by ROGER MARTIN OTTEWILL A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham May 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract Congregationalists were a major presence in the ecclesiastical landscape of Edwardian Hampshire. With a number of churches in the major urban centres of Southampton, Portsmouth and Bournemouth, and places of worship in most market towns and many villages they were much in evidence and their activities received extensive coverage in the local press. Their leaders, both clerical and lay, were often prominent figures in the local community as they sought to give expression to their Evangelical convictions tempered with a strong social conscience. From what they had to say about Congregational leadership, identity, doctrine and relations with the wider world and indeed their relative silence on the issue of gender relations, something of the essence of Edwardian Congregationalism emerges. In their discourses various tensions were to the fore, including those between faith and good works; the spiritual and secular impulses at the heart of the institutional principle; and the conflicting priorities of churches and society at large. -
