  • Circular Walks – Number 136 Westmill and Aspenden - 5.2 Miles (8 Kms)
    The Hundred Parishes Circular Walks – number 136 Westmill and Aspenden - 5.2 miles (8 kms) This walk is a mixture of countryside and an exploration of two attractive Hertfordshire villages. It is moderately hilly, mainly on quiet lanes and good paths. There are no stiles. Westmill has a pub and a tea room and there is a pub in Aspenden. Start and finish: The walk starts and finishes from Westmill Church where there is room for several cars to park in the road beside the wall of the cemetery. Ordnance Survey Grid Reference: TL370272 - Postcode: SG9 9LJ. The route can be followed on Ordnance Survey Explorer Map 194. A diagram of the route is provided at the end of the description. Before getting boots wet or muddy, you might like to visit Westmill’s parish church, dedicated to St Mary the Virgin. It dates from the 12th century with substantial additions in the 15th and much rebuilding work in 1876. One of the church’s six bells is exceptionally ancient, dating from 1350 AD. From the churchyard, return to the road and when safe cross to the “pavement” on the far side and turn right. On the left we pass an attractive series of cottages whose origins range from the 16th century to the 18th. Most are listed buildings. On the right, the unusually-named pub, The Sword in Hand, dates from the 16th century. It was once a house but has been an inn for over 200 years. Its name comes from the coat of arms of the Greg family who lived at Coles Park in the south of Westmill parish.

This includes their geographical location within and overlooking the Rib Valley, with the open landscape of arable fields and hedgerows which surround the settlements (see BCA Map of the Neighbourhood Plan area), and the presence of patches and strips of ancient woodland throughout the area.

    ‘People of Action’ in Hoddesdon In this copy : District Conference P3 Technology Tournament P4 Spring Variety Show P6 Summer Lunch P8 Evening Drives P13 Pictures from the past P17 Humour P18 1 A New Year—A New President The first of July saw the start of a new Rotary year and I was privileged to be inducted as president for a second time, having first served some nineteen years ago. I was very conscious, as I took office, that so little has changed since then. In 2000-01 we were worried about an aging club and the diffi- culty finding and retaining new members. No change there! But we were a vibrant club with a full programme and several big projects which were the envy of many a club in district. We still are! I should like to thank Martin for his year as president and for handing over the reins of a club which remains as busy as ever continuing to serve the community, locally and world- wide, in many diverse ways. Only a few weeks ago in June we held our annual technolo- gy tournament with the hall at the Spotlight filled with numerous students from local sec- ondary schools working in teams on a challenging project. A fantastic achievement again. Although sadly we haven’t increased our total number of members our enhanced mem- bership committee has been very busy with many new approaches and I believe we will reap the benefit in the coming months. July and August are traditionally the quiet months in the Rotary calendar but in the Hoddesdon Club only relatively so.

  • One Hundred Years a History of the Catholic Parish of Hitchin, by Fr Andrew Odell AA
    One Hundred Years A history of the Catholic Parish of Hitchin, by Fr Andrew Odell AA The people who were gathered at the first mass at Hitchin 100 years ago could not possibly have imagined the beautiful church we are celebrating in tonight - this noble monument of modern technology praising God. It is just as hard for us to imagine the conditions of their time. The first question that comes to mind is why, if you are looking for a place in North Hertfordshire to start a mass centre. choose Hitchin? A hundred years ago we must remember Stevenage new town did not exist. Stevenage Old Town was much smaller than we know it today - about 3300 people only. Letchworth Garden City had not yet come into being with Ebenezer Howard's ideas for the ideal town. Letchworth village numbered only 73 people. So in fact Hitchin, with 8.500 inhabitants, was the only place with any significant population. Hitchin itself was, of course, very different from the town we know today. Not only did the housing estates built since the second world war not exist - Bedford Road. Oakfield. Priory Way and so on - but the older estates of Sunnyside. High Dane and Westmill were not even on the drawing board. In fact the area between this church and the railway station was relatively new. The town having extended in that direction precisely because of the coming of the railway. It had been planned to take the trains into the town centre but as it proved impossible to acquire the land, the railway was built outside the town.

  • WVN Issue 8 2016.Pdf
    WESTMILL VILLAGE NEWS Issue No. 8 March 2016 The March wind roars like a lion in the sky, And makes us shiver as he passes by. When winds are soft and the days are warm and clear, Just like a gentle lamb, then spring is here. Anon. REMEMBER TO PUT YOUR CLOCKS FORWARD ON SUNDAY 27TH MARCH The Hundred Parishes Society is an initiative to raise awareness of a large area of northwest Essex, northeast Hertfordshire and southern Cambridgeshire that is particularly notable for its exceptional depth of heritage. Until now, the area’s anonymity has probably been due largely to the lack of a name, so we have created one that we hope will eventually become as well-known as the Chilterns or Constable Country. We have called the area the Hundred Parishes to recognise that it contains just over 100 administrative parishes - including Westmill. Whilst the whole area enjoys a recurring set of special characteristics, each parish has its own identity and its own story. We hope that our initiative will encourage both resident s and visitors to learn more about the area and will inspire them to explore and cherish it. Our website www.hundredparishes.org.uk includes an introduction to each parish, a series of walks from railway stations and a short introduction to a number of notable people associated with the area. The ‘What’s On’ page lists opportunities to learn more and to get to places that you may not know. There is a good selection of walks, talks, cultural events and conservation exercises that may be of interest.

  • Section 5: Admission Rules for Community and Voluntary-Controlled
    Cheshunt School Admission arrangements for 2016/17 The school will have a published admission number of 150 Section 324 of the Education Act 1996 requires the governing bodies of all maintained schools to admit a child with a statement of special educational needs that names their school. All schools must also admit children with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) that names the school. Rule 1 Children looked after and children who were previously looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted (or became subject to a child arrangement order or a special guardianship order). Rule 2 Medical or Social: Children for whom it can be demonstrated that they have a particular medical or social need to go to the school. A panel of Hertfordshire Admissions and Transport Officers will determine whether the evidence provided is sufficiently compelling to meet the requirements for this rule on behalf of the Governors. The evidence must relate specifically to the school applied for under Rule 2 and must clearly demonstrate why it is the only school that can meet the child’s needs. Rule 3 Sibling: Children who have a sibling at the school at the time of application (including children looked after and/or previously looked after), unless the sibling is in the last year of the normal age-range of the school. Note: the ‘normal age range’ is the designated range for which the school provides, for example Years 7 to 11 in a 11-16 secondary school, Years 7 to 13 in a 11-18 school.
