September 2016 The Parishes of Culmington Onibury, Bromfield and Stanton Lacy SEPTEMBER 2016 Festival of Churches- http://www.festivalofchurches.co.uk/ Message from the Bishop of Shrewsbury Buildings are not quiet. They speak volumes. The church buildings of Shropshire tell of faith in Jesus Christ that has shaped lives and communities across this county. Offering a wonderful opportunity for you to discover these stories, the Festival of Churches will open up many historical and spiritual treasures. I hope you have an enjoyable time exploring these sacred spaces and listening to the different voices, both past and present, on the way. As you visit these holy sites, lovingly cared for by present Salopians, I pray that you will find God’s divine welcome and hear his still small voice for you today.

We went via the scenic route to Webbs of Wychbold and enjoyed two hours there. We had time to explore a very large retail area, garden centre and restaurant.

Culmington Village Hall Duck Race and Charity Evening. Culmington Village Hall Committee would like to thank everyone for their support and contribution to the Annual Fun Day and Duck Race day held on Saturday 23rd July 2016 at Culmington Village Hall, raising monies for the village hall funds. It certainly was a great day and the afternoon was certainly buzzing with a great atmosphere. A total of £878 was raised from the duck race sales where this was donated between the Village Hall and All Saints Church Culmington which was approximately £439.00 each. During the afternoon we also had a raffle raising £123 for Ludlow Defibrillator. We were extremely lucky with the weather on the day, and everyone enjoyed sampling a glass of Pimms, and local beer from the Sun Inn at Corfton and enjoying the sunshine. This year the event was supported by Craven Arms Fire Brigade, West Mercia Police and an afternoon animal show with exotic animals provided by “Simon Airey” the Animal Man who enjoys coming back each year to see everyone. 5 Winners of the Duck Race this year were; 1st Alice Payne from Aston on Clun, 2nd J. Hardwick from Culmington, 3rd Z Boden from New Zealand, 4th, Bill Cawley, 5th Karen Lakey c/o Anne Luntz. It was lovely to see so many people and young children gathering the ducks at the end and having a paddle. Thank you goes to everyone for the organisation of the duck race from selling ducks which were sold jointly by members from the Village Hall committee and from "All Saints Church, Culmington. And thank you to Robin Edwards for use of his field for the duck race and parking. In the evening a further charity event was hosted with live music and disco, pig roast and bar raising funds for Multiple Sclerosis and Alzheimer’s Association. This was another great success with £582.00 raised for charity. Next year the Duck Race is provisionally booked for Saturday 22nd July 2016. Thank you to all again.

  • Gloving, Philanthropy and the Marrying of Polly. (C) David Walsh 2010, 2013 the Hubbub Came a Hundred Years Later When the Last of the Allcrofts, Jewell, Died in 1992
    A forgotten fortune I never grew up with any whisper of gold in the family – no tale of a lost fortune and no hint of amazingly generous presents from distant relatives. The sale of an extraordinary collection of Edwardian travel souvenirs totalling $3 million could have gone un-noticed by me had I not sniffed out the full story a while earlier. My uncle asserted that our distant aunties were Amelia Alcroft and Sophy Martin. The will of Sophy showed otherwise. She was, in 1870, a spinster living with her companion at 4 Ebenezer Terrace, Plumstead, Kent. Despite the clerk’s spidery hand I established that the man charged with proving her estate was an Allcroft, J.D. Allcroft Esquire of 55 Porchester Gate. Could this be somehow relevant to the ‘Amelia Alcroft’ on our tree? I found that this man had left nearly half a million pounds in his estate at his own death, twenty years later. Could this be our forgotten family fortune? Gloving philanthrophy, travel, and the marrying of Polly This chapter begins with a letter sent from a coffee plantation in the Port Royal Mountains, Jamaica in 1853. Polly Martin, 22, and emphatically not Amelia, was sitting at home in her mother’s smart drawing room in Woolwich when the words reached her. Henry Lowry, trying his luck as a mine agent, had gallantly offered to find a husband for his sisters-in-law “to turn mademoiselle into madame” if Polly and Sophy would come out too. They would meet many nice people, he said. He also offered a cuddle to young Georgie, then eight or nine.

  • Three Periods of English Architecture
    MBMTRAND SMITHS BOOK STORE M# PACIFIC A VENUS LONG BEACH. CALTP. THREE PERIODS OF <$> ENGLISH ARCHITECTURE. IMPORTED BY CHARLES SCRIBNER'S SONS, NEW YORK. THREE PERIODS^ OF ENGLISH ARC HITECTURE BY THOMAS HARRIS F R I B A- FSANI«$> B-T-BATSFORDf LONDON f 1 894 CHISWICK PRESS : —CHARLES WHITTINGHAM AND CO. TOOKS COURT, CHANCERY LANE, LONDON. PREFACE. the following pages much is advanced which may- INjustify the charge of lack of novelty. It is, however, the author's intention to be little more than " a gatherer and disposer of other men's stuff," his object being to advance the cause of architectural progress, not so much by enunciating his own views, as by showing how much has been said on the subject by others. This will explain the apparent abruptness of some of the quotations, they being, for the most part, introduced with little attempt at constructive arrangement, where they appeared to best elucidate the text, or to lend the authority of some well- known name to the proposition under consideration ; but they will be found to form a kind of thought mosaic, each one either helping to strengthen, or in some cases to tone down, the others with which it is connected. The progress herein alluded to has found many advo- cates at the Royal Institute of British Architects, and names of the highest repute are associated with it. Archi- tectural publications, both here and in America, have frequently given expression to the longing for relief from the bondage to which the profession has been so long subject, and from the delusions which have militated against the clear apprehension of the destiny of their art.
