May I take this opportunity to welcome him, and wish him a long and happy relationship with the Parish Council. I am pleased to announce that our new play area at Stoke Heath recreation ground is now completed and is being used and enjoyed by a great number of young folk in the community. Despite District Councillor Hollingworth’s recent comments regarding the ineffectiveness of parish Inside this issue: councils, this is a prime example of the District Council and the Parish Council working together Chairman’s 1 in a constructive manner for the benefit of the message local community. Dr. Michael 2 It has been suggested that further cuts will be Thompson: profile made by Worcestershire County Council which, amongst other things, will result in the grant to our Parish Council 3 local bus services being completely abolished. We meeting dates must fight to keep our local bus service as this is a lifeline to many people in our parish!!

Everyone is invited, mince pies and hot drinks will be provided (courtesy of the Parish Council). As this is the final newsletter of the year, all that remains is for me to wish everyone a joyful Christmas and a prosperous New Year. JOHN ELLIS, Chairman, Stoke Parish Council Profile - Dr. Michael Thompson BSc PhD MInstP PGCE Michael Thompson was born in Cumbria and grew up in the High Peak. After leaving his local comprehensive school and sixth form college, Michael studied physics at the University of Manchester. He graduated in 1998 with a first-class honours degree and the university prize for academic achievement. After graduating, Michael joined the Atomic, Molecular and Laser Manipulation Group to work towards a PhD, which he attained in 2001. He subsequently became a full member of the Institute of Physics. Michael spent his early career as a research scientist, developing spectroscopic techniques for performing trace gas analysis in hazardous environments. His work on the use of microwave modulation of infrared light was the first of its kind and is widely cited. In 2003, Michael studied for a postgraduate certificate in education. During his career in education, he has been awarded prizes for innovative teaching and has held the positions of Head of Physics and Head of Science in both the state and the independent sectors. As well as raising academic attainment to record levels in his departments, Michael has worked to promote science education for students of all ages and backgrounds. He has set up and worked with organisations, 3 including the Ogden Trust, that promote science to young people and within the community. Michael is currently Director of the International Baccalaureate at Bromsgrove School and is an advocate of holistic and lifelong learning. He disagrees with the premise of specialising in a narrow range of subjects at an early age; he believes that those who pioneer change do so by accessing skills and knowledge from a base that is both deep and diverse. He also trains teachers in partnership with the University of Manchester and continues to publish in the fields of physics and education. Predictably, Michael believes passionately in education. He is convinced that much of what is indecent can be traced back to where education has been neglected. He would say that his outlook on life, as is the case for most people, evolves with age and experience, but that his values in the importance of humility, compassion and consideration for others are ever present. Michael also cares deeply about the welfare of animals and campaigns for the right of animals to be treated with respect. Beyond science and education, Michael is interested in politics, modern history and music. He would describe himself as a hobbyist musician, playing the guitar, banjo, harmonica, mandolin, dulcimer and ukulele, in his words: “relatively OK for a scientist”. He performs live, solo and with friends, in music venues around Worcestershire. His musical tastes range from Bob Dylan to Giacomo Puccini. His favourite author is Robert Louis Stevenson. Michael lives in Bromsgrove with his wife, Carrie, and two children, Leia and Romana. Forthcoming Parish Council Meetings The Parish Council will meet on the following dates over the next few months: Monday 2nd December 2013 Monday 6th January 2014 Monday 3rd February 2014 Monday 3rd March 2014 All meetings will take place at Avoncroft Arts Centre All meetings begin at 7.30 p.m. 4 STOKE HEATH CHILDREN’S PLAY AREA The new children’s play area at Stoke Heath Recreation Ground opened during the summer. This parish and district council venture has already proved very popular. Please note that visitors travelling by car are requested to park in the Bromsgrove Pre-Preparatory and Nursery School car park (not in the lay-by in Hanbury Road). Vacancies 1. Parish Paths Warden: Interest is invited for this position, shared jointly between Stoke and Finstall Parish Councils). The basic requirement is to walk rights of way in the parish areas and report issues to the County Council two or three times per annum. The post is voluntary and appropriate expenses are reimbursed.

George Verney for details: 01527 876044, or email [email protected]. 5 COUNTY COUNCILLOR NEWS UPDATE In May I was elected to serve as your new County Councillor to represent you on Worcestershire County Council. It was an honour to be elected by my friends and neighbours to represent the area I live in. It has been a pleasure to meet and work with Parish Councillors and I would like to thank them for this opportunity to write to you. It has been a very busy time since my election. I have started an investigation into the wide- spread problem of speeding, addressed parking concerns on Buntsford Hill and chased up road maintenance concerns. I have also visited many local residents providing advice on a variety of issues. I have visited some of the many excellent voluntary local organisations in the parish, including the excellent Stoke Parish Youth Club. Stoke Parish Youth Club meets weekly on a Wednesday evening from 6 to 8 pm (except school holidays) and puts on a variety of activities including sports clubs, cooking, computer games and board game competitions for young people within the Parish. I was delighted to be able to make a contribution through my Divisional fund to help with the expansion and running costs of the club and would urge local parents to make use of this excellent, growing club. By the time this newsletter goes out, the local newspapers will be full of the very worrying news that Worcestershire County Council is proposing dramatic cuts to local services, including adult and transport services. These challenging economic times require difficult decisions; however, as your Councillor, I will be playing an active role in protecting the services we value the most. I am committed to being an accessible and active local councillor available to residents all year round. In addition to my regular leaflets and communications, I will also be doing regular street surgeries across the Parish. In addition, I hold a weekly Saturday morning surgery for all residents at Bromsgrove Library from 9 to 10 am - no appointment necessary. You can always telephone me on 07905 612710 or email me on [email protected], or visit my website www.chrisbloore.co.uk and use the on-line contact form. Stoke Parish is a wonderful place to live and I look forward to working with many of you to keep it that way. 6 The John Corbett Trail - Return Walk Update In the last edition of the Newsletter, we gave you some information about the “John Corbett Trail.” Since then, an alternative return walk has been developed. In three sections, this new walk goes from Droitwich to Stoke Heath via Wychbold. Full details are available on a new sign just off the car park at the Avoncroft Arts Centre or on the Parish Council’s website - www.stoke-pc-worcs.gov.uk.

Situated in a convenient location for easy access to the railway and motorway access locally. Holyoakes Barn is full of character and is currently configured with four reception rooms, farmhouse kitchen/breakfast room, four large double bedrooms and four wet areas. Outside is predominantly a front garden with a rear private courtyard area. Ground Floor • Hallway • Kitchen/Breakfast Room • Utility • Dining Room • Sitting Room • Family Room • Snug/Study Seller Insight It was the peaceful location which first attracted us to the property,” say the current owners of this beautifully appointed barn conversion, “nestled into a secluded courtyard and fronted by an extensive green lawn. We also loved the handsome red brick exterior, large windows and the generous proportions of the rooms, and could see that the house would be ideal for everyday family life and entertaining alike.” “An old red brick barn, the house is full of character and unique features, whilst being perfectly designed and adapted to comfortable contemporary living,” the owners continue. “On entering the home, you are welcomed by a wrought iron spiral staircase and stunning chequered stone floor, setting the tone for the stylish yet homely atmosphere of the rest of the house. Each room has its own special feeling, from the wood panelled bathroom with freestanding tub, to the cosy sitting

  • Walk K – Finstall and Stoke Prior (6¾ Miles)
    Walk K – Finstall and Stoke Prior (6¾ miles) Although the walk starts at Bromsgrove Station it quickly runs into the lovely countryside of Finstall and Stoke Prior parishes. The Queens Head Pub further along the circuit is a good alternative place to start if you wish to avoid the station. The walk can also link up with Walk E to make a longer 12 mile circuit. Boots are advisable except in driest weather. Parking is available at the start of the walk in the station car park (pay and display). The Queens Head pub may allow walkers to park but please check. Roadside parking is also possible in Woodgate Road at the southern end of the circuit. There are six Geocaches on this walk. The walk should take around 2½-3 hours. 1. Bromsgrove Station – Turn right by the Ladybird Inn and Lodge into Finstall Road and right again into St Godwalds Road by the Fish and Chip shop. Cross the railway at the start of the Lickey Incline – at 1 in 37 the steepest on the mainline in Britain. For many years trains were banked from Bromsgrove by engines such as “Big Bertha”. The housing estate on the right occupies the site of the Wagon Works – once one of Bromsgrove’s largest employers. Rutherford and Scaife were two engineers killed in a boiler explosion. (Their monuments are in Bromsgrove churchyard) Captain Moorsome was the Chief Engineer and advocate of locomotive rather than rope haulage up the bank. McConnel was the Locomotive Superintendent from 1841. Clayton was associated with the Institute which was sited close to the bridge.
