A largish group of won- derful volunteers pull this event together to support the community shop. This year was, amazingly, the fifth time the Goat has run. After some very sterling service several members of the original committee stood down last year and we would like to thank them very much for all they have done since the event started and for handing over with style, grace and relief to a new bunch of folk. Alan, Sue, Jane, Simon and Helen, we salute you, even though most of you were inexplicably out of the country on 9 September! The new team are now thoroughly broken in and looking forward to next year. No really, they are. Inevitably there were a few gaps this year and one or two utter stalwarts worked very hard all day to fill them. Now we know what we’re doing we will be sure to be a bit more streamlined in 2018. The Goat followed on from the awe-inspiring Hill Climb the previous evening, where cyclists pit their legs against Sir William Hill.

  • Grindleford Including Nether Padley Parish Statement (Draft)
    Grindleford including Nether Padley Parish Statement (draft) Grindleford is a merger of the former parishes of Stoke, Eyam Woodlands, Upper Padley and Nether Padley. Grindleford Parish is located between Hathersage, approximately 3 miles north and Calver, approximately 3 miles south. The area is a popular walking and cycling destination with good public transport connections. The earliest mention of the village is in the 1248 Derbyshire Charter as Grundleford. Clearly the ford across the River Derwent was all-important. The building of a bridge across the river, first documented in 1577, facilitated the medieval salt routes used by packhorse drivers and later, the Photo needed turnpikes enabled the village to develop further. The railway was built in 1894 and this opened up the Hope Valley area to tourism and to commuters. here Grindleford has 2 conservation areas, the station designated in 1994 and the village designated in 1998. As a result of its transport connections, Grindleford developed in the C19th from its traditional agricultural structure. A tannery – superseded by a laundry in1913 - and quarries employed local people whilst its picturesque location attracted industrialists from Sheffield. Today, Grindleford has an eclectic mix of residents; professionals, business people, trades people, farmers, artists as well as people who work within the Hope Valley and retired folk. Grindleford has a thriving Primary School , a play group, a much-valued Community shop in the Vestry of St Helen's Church, numerous outdoor activities often focused on the Bishop Pavilion Playing Fields, (including a cricket team)and its own village website. It fosters an active community spirit and is enjoyed by walkers, cyclists and those who value the beauty of the Hope Valley and a welcoming rural area.

  • The End of an Era Alan Jacques Retired As Clerk to Grindleford Parish Council at the Start of April After 44 Years in the Post
    The End of An Era Alan Jacques retired as Clerk to Grindleford Parish Council at the start of April after 44 years in the post. It’s quite hard to put into words just what the impact of Alan’s time as Clerk has meant to the village. Never one to make a song and dance, he has worked so hard and diligently not only to fulfil the requirements of the job but to go so far beyond that. Working alongside only three Council chairmen, Robert Crossland, John Morton and Bob Wilson, he has been a steady hand at the tiller for four decades. We will miss him very much, and he is an impossible act to follow. However, having seen him out and about in the local area beaming widely we know he is enjoying his retirement! Thank you so much from us all, Alan. (Thanks to John Mottershaw https://www.johnmottershaw.com/ for the wonderful photographs) Lash-up Our very own omni-talented Tim Shephard has been unavailable for this edition of the News, so it has fallen into the hands of an incompetent, just for this one time. May I apologise in advance for the fact that we have gone back six steps in terms of layout and clarity, I only know what I know and it is long time since I turned my hand to putting out the News! I am working on the assumption that some News and late News is better than no News at all. Normal service will be resumed in October. Tim is however looking to hand over the editorship at some point soon, so if you think you can do the job, please let him know, contacts on the back.
