  • Whilton Spring Newsletter March – May 2021
    WHILTON SPRING NEWSLETTER Whilton Marina MARCH – MAY 2021 1 Spring 2021 Editors’ Letter This is the Spring Newsletter so it is good to see photos of Easter eggs and spring bulbs. The snowdrops in and around the village have done well this year and there are more bulbs to come up in private gardens and common areas. New lambs will soon be out in the fields and the prospect of warmer days will give us more opportunities to get outside. Once again village activities have been limited by lockdown restrictions. It is interesting to see how residents have adapted to this. We have seen many more people out and about walking despite the weather. We have also been pleased to meet a number of new puppies out on their walks. Judging by the number of Amazon and other delivery vans, many of you have adapted by shopping on line. What is also good is that a number of you have used your time to produce material for the Newsletter so thank you to everyone who has contributed. We may not have many events planned but we are able to keep villagers linked up and informed. Hopefully there will be opportunities later in the summer to hold some events and all meet up again or in some cases for the first time. The Editors Waiting for spring Sheep on a freezing morning in February. Photographed by Richard Oliver. 2 Parish Council News As we are seeing the Covid vaccination scheme rolling out through the age groups, we are at last hopefully seeing a light at the end of the tunnel.

    Northamptonshire COVID-19 Weekly Surveillance Report • 1,642 Northamptonshire residents have tested positive for COVID-19 in the last week. • Cases will continue to accelerate rapidly unless we urgently adhere to national and local guidance. • The majority of transmission continues to be within and between households. Data up to 15 November 2020 1 National Restrictions Northamptonshire residents must follow new National guidance. Key guidance includes: • Only leave home for food, medical reasons, exercise, education or work (if you cannot work from home) • You MUST work from home if you can • Avoid travel unless essential • Schools and essential shops to remain open • Remember: Wash hands, cover face, make space For a full list of what you can and cannot do, please visit: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/new-national-restrictions-from- 5-november For local guidance and FAQs, visit: https://www.northamptonshire.gov.uk/coronavirus- updates/Pages/coronavirus-advice-and-faqs.aspx 2 Your Actions Make a Difference! 1. If you can’t minimise your contact with the over 60s, due to caring or childcare responsibilities, then you must minimise your contact elsewhere. We urgently need to reduce coronavirus transmission to older age groups who have greater risk of severe illness and hospital admission. Bed capacity at our hospitals is already continuing to rise.

  • Northamptonshire Record Office
    GB0154 DRMC Northamptonshire Record Office This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 21387 The National Archives NORTHAMPTONSHIRE RECORD OFFICE DAVENTRY METHODIST CIRCUIT INTRODUCTION Wesleyan Methodism was first introduced into the Daventry area with the formation of a society in the village of Norton, about 1788. This was shortly followed by a Daventry society, in 1797, which met in a meeting house in New Street and later built the methodist chapel in Chapel Lane, 1801. This chapel was soon closed, to be used for a school, and a new chapel, in Cow Lane, was erected in 1824. As Methodism spread throughout the locality, new chapels were erected in the villages of Braunston- 1798, West Haddon 1810 (re-erected 1847), Weedon 1811, Norton 1818, Hellidon 1820, Watford 1842, Welton 1858 and Charwelton 1887. These chapels joined the Rugby Circuit in 1806, to become the Daventry and Rugby Circuit which continued until 1860, when Rugby and some villages broke away to form a separate Rugby Circuit, the remainder forming the Daventry Circuit. This circuit consisted of chapels at Braunston, Charwelton, Daventry, Flecknoe (Warwickshire), West Haddon, Hellidon, Norton, Priors Marston (Warwickshire), Watford, Weedon, Welton and Willoughby (Warwick­ shire) . In 1931 the chapel at West Haddon was sold. This was followed by the closure of Charwelton in 1932 and later Welton 1950, Flecknoe, Hellidon and Watford 1966, Weedon 1970 and Priors Marston 1973. The four chapels still left in the Daventry Circuit amal­ gamated with the larger Rugby Circuit in 1976 to form the Daventry and Rugby Circuit.
