13 March 2020 Dear Parent I Am Writing to Update You on Our Coronavirus Response and Continued Planning Following the Government’S COBRA Meeting Yesterday
Gosfield Hall Park, Gosfield Halstead, Essex CO9 1SE t: 01787 472134 e:[email protected] w: stmargaretsprep.com Headmaster: Mr Callum Douglas 13 March 2020 Dear Parent I am writing to update you on our coronavirus response and continued planning following the government’s COBRA meeting yesterday. Many parents have been in touch in recent days to ask about a potential school closure – we are keen to maintain frequent and open communication with you in these unprecedented times. While the UK has moved into the ‘Delay’ phase of its Coronavirus Action Plan, the official government advice for schools remains unchanged. As you know, we are following all Public Health England (PHE), Department for Education and NHS guidance. In addition, we have already introduced some additional measures such as asking parents to temperature check pupils before attending school, self-reporting of families’ travel plans, an increased level of cleaning and an emphasis on hand washing and hygiene in school. We will continue with this approach while preparing for the possibility that school closures may be introduced at any time. We are committed to maintaining a normal teaching and learning environment for our pupils, whilst carefully monitoring the fast-moving situation with our Cognita Response Team. We are also drawing upon the experience of further Cognita schools, namely in Spain, that are now successfully delivering remote learning programmes amid mandatory closures. Yesterday’s announcement by the government advised against all international school trips. Although we do not have any planned at St Margaret’s we will keep you updated with any postponement or cancellation of domestic trips. -
English Heritage Registered Grade Ii Braintree District Council Gosfield Hall Gosfield Gd1255 Tl773
ENGLISH HERITAGE REGISTERED GRADE II BRAINTREE DISTRICT COUNCIL GOSFIELD HALL GOSFIELD GD1255 TL773 296 The remains of a mid C19 garden set within an extensive C18 park. HISTORIC DEVELOPMENT Gosfield Hall was originally built in the 1540s by Sir John Wentworth as a quadrangular house ranged around a courtyard. Three of the fronts were subsequently remodelled. The east front was altered by Sir Thomas Millington sometime after 1691; he was probably also responsible for remodelling the south front, although further modifications were made to it in the C18. John Knight, who acquired the estate in 1715, rebuilt the north front in a Palladian style. Following his death, his widow married Robert Nugent, first Earl Nugent, in 1736 and he carried out further work on the house, included heightening the centre of the south range and adding a ‘Tudor-style’ corridor. Robert Nugent also carried out work on the landscape and created a mile-long lake as a key element in his new design for the park. The estate passed by inheritance to the Marquis of Buckingham in 1788, and in 1807 Gosfield became for a while the home of the exiled Louis XVIII of France during which time the west front was reworked. In 1825 the estate was sold to E G Barnard who almost immediately became insolvent, allowing the Hall and its landscape to fall into disrepair. When Barnard died in 1851 the estate was purchased by Samuel Courtauld who spent the ten years prior to his death renovating the Hall, laying out a formal geometric garden around it, and generally improving the park and estate. -

Gosfield Grapevine Magazine and the Village Shop
Gosfield Grapevine Photo Tony PhotoSaleTony Issue 70—December 2016 Gosfield Parish Council 2 St Catherine’s Church On the 24th November a service was held at St Catherine’s to license Rev Rose Braisby in the Halstead Team Ministry. It was a also a service of celebration and the church was full of parishioners, visitors and friends from afar, followed by a buffet and a glass of wine and an opportunity for a bit of socialising. I was prompted to write a note for The Grapevine by some of the comments made by the Bishop of Colchester in his address, and I am going to try and summarise briefly what were the key points – for me, at least. No..please don’t stop reading, I don’t intend to beat you over the head with a bit of bible bashing! We are going through great change in society, and this affects everything, Church of England included. Numbers of churchgoers is falling, the power, wealth and influence of the C of E is only a fraction of what it used to be and the ‘old model’ of a church where, basically, the vicar took care of everything and the congregation just had to attend, has gone. What has replaced it – or at least is in the process of taking hold, is a model where a team of people – ordained and lay alike - take responsibility for a number of parishes, working with the congregations, to create, maintain and nurture their communities. You may begin to see why I was moved to write when you saw the word communities! Amongst my friends, relatives, neighbours and family there is pretty much the whole range of opinion towards the church – from downright hostility, total indifference, lukewarm support to fervent devotion. -

POST OFFICE DIRECTORY OF ESSEX, HERTS, MIDDLESEX KENT ; CORRECTED TO THE TIME OF PUBLICATION. r LONDON: PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY KELLY AND CO,, OLD BOSWELL COURT, ST. CLEMENT'S, STRAND. W.C. 1862. PREFACE. TIIE Proprietors, in submitting to their Subscribers and the Public the present (being the Fifth) Edition of the Six HOME COUNTIES DIRECTORY, trust that it may • be found to be equal in accuracy to the previous Editions. Several additions have been made to the present volume : lists of Hundreds and Poor Law Unions have been included in the Topography of each County; it is stated under each Parish in what Hundred, Union and County Court District it is situate, as well as the Diocese, Archdeaconry and Rural Deanery; and the College and University of every Beneficed Clergyman have been given. The Post Office Savings Banks have been noticed; the names of the Parish Clerks are given under each Parish ; and lists of Farm Bailiffs of gentlemen farming their own land have been added. / The bulk of the Directory has again increased considerably: the Third Edition consisted of 1,420 pages; the Fourth had increased to 1,752 pages; and the present contains 1,986 pages. The value of the Directory, however, will depend principally on the fact that it has been most carefully corrected, every parish having been personally visited by the Agents during the last six months. The Proprietors have again to return their thanks to the Clergymen, Clerks of the Peace, Magistrates' Clerks, Registrars, and other Gentlemen who have assisted the Agents while collecting the information. -

USAAF AIRFIELDS Guide and Map Introduction
USAAF AIRFIELDS Guide and Map Introduction During the Second World War, the East of England became home to hundreds of US airmen. They began arriving in 1942, with many existing RAF (Royal Air Force) airfields made available to the USAAF (United States Army Air Force). By 1943 there were over 100,000 US airmen based in Britain. The largest concentration was in the East of England, where most of the 8th Air Force and some of the 9th were located on near a hundred bases. The 8th Air Force was the largest air striking force ever committed to battle, with the first units arriving in May 1942. The 9th Air Force was re-formed in England in October 1943 - it was the operator of the most formidable troop-carrying force ever assembled. Their arrival had an immediate impact on the East Anglian scene. This was the 'friendly invasion' - a time of jitterbugging dances and big band sounds, while the British got their first taste of peanut butter, chewing gum and Coke. Famous US bandleader Glenn Miller was based in the Bedford area (Bedfordshire), along with his orchestra during the Second World War. Close associations with residents of the region produced long lasting friendships, sometimes even marriage. At The Eagle pub in Cambridge (Cambridgeshire), and The Swan Hotel at Lavenham (Suffolk), airmen left their signatures on the ceiling/walls. The aircraft of the USAAF were the B-17 Flying Fortress and B-24 Liberator - used by the Bombardment Groups (BG); and the P-51 Mustang, P-38 Lightning and P-47 Thunderbolt - used by the Fighter Groups (FG). -
