Cllr Cooke hoped to meet with the officer in charge of the closures within the next few days as a meeting had already been requested. A debate was held on whether or not a joint opposition be made by the Parish Council and the Village Hall or separate oppositions. Julie Petty stated that although the Village Hall would lose revenue which they could not afford to lose they were also like the Parish Council opposed to the closure due to the loss of a service to the users of the Village Hall in particular Pre-School and Lunch Club members. It was agreed for the time being that separate letters of opposition would be send to the various departments and officers of the Council and that a meeting would be requested with the necessary bodies, this meeting if possible at the Village Hall to which village hall management representative would be invited. The Chair of the meeting asked the clerk to put an item on the agenda for the meeting of the Parish Council on the 7th March 2011 to formulate a resolution to oppose the closure. Although Addingham also faced closure as yet they had not had a meeting to discuss their proposals although opposition would be made.

Yorkshire Farms and Mills
Yorkshire Farms and Mills The Downs William Downs was born c1748 and died in 1832 aged 831. He was a farmer at Coate Gap Farm, Thornton, near Bradford in West Yorkshire. His wife, Grace Pearson, died in 1816 aged 66 (her funeral at Thornton was conducted by the Rev Patrick Bronte, the father of the literary sisters, who was minister there at the time). They had married at Bradford in 1770 (at the time, marriages could only be carried out at the parish church in Bradford, not in the chapel at Thornton). Co(a)te Gap Farm, Thornton. 2013 1 It is possible that the Downs family came from Bakewell in Derbyshire. A William Downs was born there in 1748, son of William Downs, and he had uncles Joseph and John, both being names which appeared later in Thornton (John in 1732, when he would have been 24, and Joseph in 1764 when he would have been 45). William’s grandfather was Joshua and his mother was Martha, both names which occur in the Downs of Thornton. The Downs disappear from Bakewell around this time. This does not explain the earliest Thornton Downs record, that of William who died in 1722, however. A son William was born in 1780, when his father was at Pikely north of Thornton and baptised at Kipping Chapel. Another son John was born in 1784 (see Appendix 2). Daughter Hannah was baptised at Kipping Chapel in 1789. Daughters Betty and Mally had been baptised at Thornton church in 1774 and 1777 (d 1778) and the death of a daughter Grace was recorded there in 1786.

Wilsden and Harecroft Parish Plan Spring 2010
Wilsden and Harecroft Parish Plan Spring 2010 Wilsden Parish Council www.wilsdenparishcouncil.gov.uk Wilsden and Harecroft Wilsden is a former mill village lying to the west of Bradford and the south of Bingley and is a part of the Bingley Rural ward of Bradford Metropolitan District Council. The population of the Wilsden Parish Council area, which covers the villages of Wilsden and Harecroft and the surrounding farms and houses, was 4,182 at the 2001 Census. The Parish Council area contained 1944 dwellings in January 2010 compared to the 1768 dwellings in 2001, representing a 10% increase.. Wilsden dates back to Saxon times, flourishing in the nineteenth century when the presence of coal, water and wool transformed an agricultural area into an industrial landscape based on textiles. With the decline of the textile industry Wilsden is now a pleasant dormitory village for people who work elsewhere. Fortunately, the shape of the valley, with a degree of vigilance, has ensured the survival of the character of this independent community, even after a second wave of growth. Wilsden Village Society was formed in 1970 and considered it had a responsibility to act as both a watchdog and to speak out strongly in the interests of the village and its residents. It also set out to provide a new focal point for community activities in the shape of the Village Hall, to revive former social activities and to encourage new ones. In 2004 Wilsden Parish Council was created to represent the interests of this distinct community within Bradford. Since then it has been active on a number of fronts to improve Wilsden as a place to work and live; a refurbished play area and revitalisation of the hanging basket scheme being two visible examples.

The Benefice of Harden, Wilsden, Cullingworth, Denholme
The Benefice of Harden, Wilsden, Cullingworth, Denholme Letter from Liz Bank holidays have always felt rather special, so as I am writing this during the bank holiday weekend, it’s good to be able to share some of this special time with you. As a child, they were always weekend’s when we could spend longer together as a family and then, as an adult, they gave the treat of a longer weekend. Some would enjoy trips out to the seaside or into the country whilst others preferred to stay at home. Apparently, we owe our statutory bank holidays to John Lubbock, the first Baron of Avebury who drafted the Bank Holiday Bill in 1871, although dates changed over the years and only settled into the present format in 1971. According to a Library Blog, he also tried to teach his poodle to read! The bank holidays seem to have been of more widespread benefit! This bank holiday was originally held on Whit Monday, which varied from year to year, but in 1971 it was fixed as the last Monday in May by a further act of parliament. Whitsun was the celebration of Pentecost, the birthday of the church when the church celebrates the coming of the Holy Spirit to energise and enable people to continue the work of sharing the Gospel in the world. Another very special day – a day to remember what happened to those first followers of Jesus, but also a day when we can recommit ourselves to sharing the good news and praying that the Holy Spirit will fill our lives so that we are empowered to do so.
