Benefice of Shepshed and Oaks in Charnwood St Botolph’s and St James the Greater Benefice of Shepshed and Oaks in Charnwood Monthly Parish News September 2015 !!GREAT NEWS!! CAR PARK REFURBISHMENT Following some extensive works at the end of July and beginning of August, there have now been significant improvements to the Church Car Park. It now comprises of an even surface made up of a grid system —by GRID FORCE—that is filled with crushed stone and provides a permeable surface through which water drains into the ground beneath. The remaining border will be planted with a new hedge-row hopefully being supplied “Free of charge” by the Woodland Trust in February. Car Park bay marking is to be reviewed with the contractor during September including specific disabled bays. No lighting is planned at this stage as it is uncertain exactly what is required and/or permissible. Car Park Before Car Park After CHURCH HALL NEW HEATING SYSTEM During the last few weeks of July a new heating system has been installed in the hall and comprises of radiators to the toilets, office and lobby which can be operated separately to the hall. A second system of two fan assisted radiators have been installed in the hall and the whole system is much more efficient than that which it replaced and will be more economic to operate. No complaints about being too hot please!! We are continuing to investigate ways to resolve other issues affecting the hall given that it is now being used for Family Services on Sundays.

In doing so we hope to highlight the variety of activity that takes place at St. Botolph's. We are asking all leaders to discuss with their groups the most efficient way of demonstrating their Christian activities. A letter of invitation with a logistics questionnaire should be winging its way to you in the near future. If you haven't received one by October 1st then please contact me or the office. We want everyone to be included. From feedback participation in practical activities and audio - visual techniques are firm favourites. Please give this prayerful thought as to how you can promote our gospel values to our wider community. many thanks Sue Burt Come along and see What goes on in and around our 12th Century Church Page 5 St Botolph’s Mother’s Union Report Our July meeting saw us pitting our wits to answer the tricky questions put to us by Judeth in her summer quiz! After a somewhat puzzling time, we again enjoyed a lovely meal pre- pared by Doris and her team. Thanks to them and to Judeth for organising such an interesting and stimulating event. Instead of an August meeting, we held our summer barbecue to support the ‘Away From It All’ holidays provided for needy families by our Diocesan Mothers’ Union. Unlike last year, we were blessed with good weather and enjoyed a lovely warm evening in Anne and Alan’s beautiful garden. A sum of £366.50 was raised towards this very good cause. Many thanks to Anne and Alan for inviting us again and to all who helped in any way to make this such an enjoyable event. Our September meeting will be held in the church hall as usual, on Wednesday 9th September where we shall be looking at all the projects in the Diocese supported my Mothers’ Union. All are welcome.

LE11 3PR (01509-214711) IVY Hedera helix - A PLANT FOR ALL SEASONS Ivy, our only evergreen native climbing plant, is well known to butterfly enthusiasts as being the second generation food plant of the Holly Blue larvae but I suspect far fewer appreciate its importance to large numbers of moth species such as The Chestnut, Dark Chestnut, Dark Sword-grass, Tawny Pinion, Green-brindled Crescent, The Satellite and Red-line Quaker. It is also one of two main larval food plants of an attractive little geometer moth, the Yellow-barred Brindle, whose other main food plant is the Holly - like the Holly Blue! Ivy also provides important winter hibernating cover for The Brimstone, The Peacock and numerous other insect species. It gives protection to hibernating insects and roosting birds in the worst of the winter's weather when the countryside becomes a wind-swept, hostile place to all living organisms and when decent shelter can make all the difference between life and death to creatures fighting to stay alive and doing their best to avoid being blown into oblivion!

  • The Listed Buildings of North West Leicestershire
    THE LISTED BUILDINGS OF NORTH WEST LEICESTERSHIRE LISTED BUILDINGS The statutory list of buildings of architectural or historic interest for the District comprises five volumes (or 'Greenbacks') which were published on the following dates:- 13th List - 29 September 1977 28th List - 1 September 1983 29th List - 31 October 1983 31st List - 20 December 1983 40th List - 16 January 1989 This gazetteer lists the listed buildings within the District by settlement and parish. Unless otherwise stated the buildings are Grade II listed. It should be noted that some changes have been made to the lists following their original publication and a number of buildings have been added to the statutory lists (ie 'spot listed'), some have been upgraded in status to Grade II* from Grade II, and two buildings; the lodge to Rotherwood, Tamworth Road, Ashby de la Zouch and the Wall and Gates at the former Railway Station, Station Road, Ashby de la Zouch; have been removed altogether from the list (A summary of all alterations to the statutory list, and the date of the last update of this document, are contained in the Appendix at the end of this index). It should be noted that some names and/or numbers of properties included on the List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest have been altered since the publication of the lists. Where the District Council has been made aware of such occurrences these are identified in bold following the relevant list entry in the index. Further, it should be noted in some cases properties have been sub-divided and have accordingly acquired new names/numbers and that some properties (NOT included themselves within the index) may have listed status as a result of being - or having been - within the curtilage of a principal listed building at the time of a listing.
