March 2019 ISSN 1466-8211 Local Names UNDER THE EDGE INCORPORATING THE PARISH MAGAZINE GREAT LONGSTONE, LITTLE LONGSTONE, ROWLAND, HASSOP, MONSAL HEAD, WARDLOW www.undertheedge.net No. 242 March 2019 ISSN 1466-8211 Local Names I find some of the local names fascinating, some will be found on maps and others are passed on by word of mouth. A lot of people will know the road from Monsal Head towards Wardlow (Castlegate Lane) as Scratta and probably have no idea why it is so named. Leaving Monsal Head travelling up towards Wardlow past Chertpit Lane on the right is ‘Scratta Wood’ (see photo) which is a one acre wood surrounded by a stone wall. In only the last couple of months it has been sold by the Peak Park for a few thousand pounds, I can’t think why anybody would want to buy it as they would not be able do anything with it. It is actually a ‘Site of Special Scientific Interest’, can’t think why as there are just a few trees and what was once a rubbish tip. Another name that intrigues me is ‘Ruby’s Chair’, a limestone slab where you sit and admire the view (see photo). Who was Ruby and who took the trouble to install the seat. It lies in an easterly direction from Black Harry’s Gate. There’s another name, Black Harry, he was purported to be a highwayman who haunted the area a couple of hundred years ago and would rob travellers passing through until he was caught, hung, drawn and quartered and then gibbeted on the gallows tree at Wardlow Mires. Longstone Lane running between Thornbridge Hall and Ashford is known as ‘Shady Lane’ or even ‘Shaley Lane’ by locals. Another local name that really appeals to me is ‘Thunderpit Lane’ which is a continuation of Narrowgate Lane out of Wardlow. I am sure thereAndy are Hannamany more interesting local names and would Challenge Voyageappreciate to your Fastnet feedback Rock on the above names and any more you can tell me about. This summer I will be undertaking a 14-day challenge voyage where we will attempt to circumnavigate Ireland from Oban, Scotland. The voyage is part of Ocean Youth Trust Scotland’s Young Leaders Development Programme which aims to develop the confidence of 12 young people and provide us with both sailing and leadership qualifications in order to equip us to be the future volunteers on which the Trust relies. OYT is an award-winning youth work charity which sails with young people from all different backgrounds, to give them the opportunity to realise their potential in what can often be a life-changing experience. I first sailed with the Trust through my school and have since returned to volunteer because I recognise the importance of what they do. In order to take part in the Development Programme, I have been asked to raise at least £600 for the charity to help cover the cost of the voyage. If anyone would be willing to make a small donation to help me towards my goal please visit https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/ AshKreit or contact me via email for more details on [email protected].

His photo is of a Spring Starflower or Springstar , part of the onion and amyrillis family. The flowers are honey scented, which is no doubt what attracted the ant. Alfie is a keen photographer with his own Olympus DSLR camera, and this scene caught his eye under a large yew tree at the bottom of Church Lane. His creativity is not limited just to photography: Alfie loves cats and in Year 5 he and a friend made a comic called Cat Man! A total of 39 people took part in our photographic competition this year and we hope you had fun and found it an interesting challenge. We have all had to adapt our ways of doing things over the last year and transferring this competition to an online format, though different, has been a great success. Now that we are beginning to open up and get back to our normal lives, maybe this is the blueprint for the future of the competition? 39 people submitted a total of 124 photographs across the four categories, with nearly 100 taking part in voting for their favourite entry.

  • Medieval Lives in Castleton and Hope
    Medieval Lives in Castleton and Hope Report on the historical research for the Medieval common people in Castleton and Hope villages. Produced as part of the Lives of the Common People project, January 2012 - July 2013. By Di Curtis, Angela Darlington, Kay Harrison, Jeanette Holmes, Patricia Miles, Ann Price, John Talbot and Bill Bevan. Castleton and Hope Historical Societies July 2013 Castleton Historical Society and Hope Historical Society Abstract Angela Darlington The period covered by this document extends over nearly 600 years from the Norman Conquest to the English Civil War. In focusing on the lot of the common people of Castleton and Hope, it provides a backcloth in terms of the land that they occupied, and some of the most important influences in their day-to-day lives. They raised their families in unpredictable circumstances affected by the vagaries of climate and disease. In what was already a difficult existence, they also had to contend with the constraints of forest rule and the onerous burden of taxation. The church and the lead-mining industry both played a central part in these two North Derbyshire communities. The scene is set with William the Conqueror’s great Domesday survey and a discussion of the differences between the two villages in terms of land areas, taxable value and administration as described for 1066 and 1086. At the time of the Norman Conquest Hope was a larger and much more important settlement than Castleton, but within 20 years of the Conquest was apparently declining in economic status whilst Castleton was growing. Hopedale within the Royal Forest of Peak was the home of Hope and Castleton villages and so Forest Law was central to the people that lived and worked there.

The environment of soil, water and air needs to be kept healthy if it is to provide the natural home for plants such as oak trees and Jacob’s ladder, animals such as lapwing and water vole, and the landscapes that people love to visit. Looking after wildlife is good for people and local business, for health and well-being, and is strongly linked to adapting to, and preparing for, the effects of climate change.
