  • Clumber Park and Lake a Stroll in the Heart of Sherwood Forest
    Clumber Park and Lake A stroll in the heart of Sherwood Forest The Basics Six miles (9.5 kilometres). This vast area of forest and parkland is the Dukeries, formerly the ducal estates of Welbeck, Thoresby and Clumber. All three have ‘fallen from their Graces’ but Clumber lives on as the regional H.Q. of the National Trust, with the area taking on a new role as a popular country park. This longer walk encompasses many less frequented parts of the parkland, but includes part of the delightful lake-side track and the self-service cafeteria - of course. It’s mixed tarmac and footpaths. Before you go Look in Google for information on Clumber Park, Hardwick village and the Duke of New- castle. Binoculars are worth taking. Click on https://youtu.be/-Ez07DhwIo0 to watch a short video.

  • The Nottinghamshire Baptists: Polity
    The Nottinghamshire Baptists POLITY Denominational Organisation N THE seventeenth century, when the Baptists emerged, the main I ecclesiastical systems represented in Britain were Episcopalianism, organised on a parish and diocesan basis, Presbyterianism with its presbyteries, synods and its General Assembly, and Separatism, em­ phasising the independence of the local Christian community, gathered out of the population as a whole. Baptists would, of course, be classed as Separatists, though the General Baptists show signs of a greater degree of central organisation than the Particular Baptists. The Particular Baptists formed local "associations" at quite an early date. There was a Midland Particular Baptist Association in 1655 and the Northamptonshire Association, to which the Nottingham­ shire churches belonged until 1835, was formed in 1764. In 1835 the Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Association was formed and it was extended in 1860 to include Lincolnshire. The Association, covering three counties, remained in existence until the General Baptists and Particular Baptists united in 1891 and the East Midland Baptist Association was formed. The General Baptists of the Old Connexion went further than the Particular Baptists in their denominational organisation, having a General A,ssembly, whose minutes begin in 1654, which exercised a degree of jurisdiction over local churches. In 16961 it claimed that its decisions were binding on local churches, though in 1711 it modi­ fied this to the extent of deciding not to legislate on its own initiative but only to decide appeals. In 1744 it ordered that the local associa­ tions should be consulted before an appeal was made to the Assembly. In their recognition of the office of" messenger ", the Old Connexion General Baptists also displayed their closer denominational organisa­ tion.
