In these unusual times we have created a slightly different issue of the magazine hoping to help those of you who are looking for local information. This magazine will be available online only but if anyone is aware of specific people who would appreciate a printed copy please contact the editor on the last page and it can be arranged. Please note information in the magazine is as correct as it can be at time of going to print. As things are changing so quickly it is worth contacting in advance to check services advertised etc. are operating as usual. Churches Update Continuing from April, and as part of the guidance from the Church of England to help minimise the effect of the Corona Virus all Church services and meetings have been suspended. Should anyone face difficulties or just want to talk or share a prayer we are here for you. Please just contact any member of the Church team on back page of the magazine. A Churchwarden Writes… Geoffrey Barrett – Lighthorne Like a lot of us, my wife and I are confined to our house and garden, being grateful for the latter and also for the daily walk in our beautiful surroundings. Such a change from our normal ability to go where and when we want and having the freedom to interact with whomever we wish. Our confidence that we are in control of everything in our lives has been given a serious jolt and we have the time to do some thinking about what is happening to us as everybody else, and perhaps some uncertainty about our future. Our Church building is closed, but the Church is very much in action as we hear all the time about acts of neighbourly and other kindness. Jesus has made it clear that everybody in the world is our neighbour, and let us hope then when this crisis is over as it surely will be, as in the words of Captain Tom, that the present situation is remembered with similar acts of thoughtfulness, and hopefully the animosity in so many parts of the world reduces.

They’re all alone, trying to cope with their mental health problems, their fears and uncertainties, their abusers. The Society are launching an emergency appeal www.childrenssociety.org.uk/lifeline LIGHT A CANDLE Lighting a virtual candle can be a helpful way to pray for someone or will help you think about someone who has died and pray for all those who miss them. Take a moment to think of the person you knew. Reflect on the memories you have of this person and say thank you to God for their unique life. Then remember their family and friends, and all those who miss them. Ask God to comfort them and surround them with his love. https://www.churchofengland.org/life-events/funerals/light-candle- remember-someone Local Delivery / Takeaway Services Take Away / Delivery Services now available (at time of printing) Cottage at Ashorne offering take away meals – 01926 651410 Kineton Chip Shop – 12-8pm- Call to place your orders on 01926 930363 Lighthorne Pavilion Café – offering ‘fixed price’ mixed boxes for £10 – different categories of Fruit & Veg, Dairy & Eggs, General Provisions and a Mixed Box.

A loyal supporter of St George’s since childhood, she was a regular member of our congregation to the end of her life, always willing to help with any church activity and taking a lively interest in all the local doings. She will be very much missed for her kindness and generosity and although her burial at St George’s will necessarily be for family only, we look forward to her memorial service at a later date. THANKS TO OUR PARISHIONERS With most of our usual springtime activities cancelled or migrating online, it has been good to see so many parishioners keeping in touch with friends and neighbours via phonecalls, virtual gatherings and local Whatsapp groups. Our thanks to everyone who has offered their help with errands, shopping and welcome social contact, particularly for those on their own, anxious or struggling in these challenging times. A NEW HOME FOR OUR BATS Some of St George’s most persistent visitors, the bats, have woken up and are leaving their calling cards in the porch and surrounding areas. We are very grateful to Karl Davies who has generously made and donated two ultra- smart bat boxes, designed to encourage the bats to move out of the church and into their new ‘des res’. ECO-CHURCHYARD We are again leaving the area of our beautiful eco-churchyard at the back of the church unmown until the end of July to encourage the growth of wild flowers. Everyone out walking or exercising their dogs nearby has been enjoying the sweet-smelling riot of primroses, bluebells, celandines and wood anemones that have made the churchyard a oasis of calm and serenity. APCM We have had to postpone our Annual Parochial Church Meeting, which is normally held in March. The diocese has now granted us an extension for this until the end of October so we'll let everyone know when we have a new date for it. Newbold Pacey and Ashorne WI Report May It is with great sadness that I share the news that our dear friend, neighbour and long-time WI member, Molly Kearns died at home, aged 97 on Saturday 18th April 2020. Molly was well known across the Parish for her determined independence, wonderful flapjack and sartorial elegance. Molly will be greatly missed by us all and our thoughts and prayers are with the Braggs family at their time of loss. During the COVID-19 virus lockdown Newbold Pacey & Ashorne WI is following Government guidelines on ‘social distancing’ and therefore WI meetings, Coffee Mornings and Craft and Chat Groups are suspended until further notice. Whilst many of our members are by necessity ‘self-isolating’ that doesn’t mean we are inactive. We are communicating with each other in new ways - hurrah for superfast broadband! New initiatives have included: -The creation of NP&A Covid-19 Support WhatsApp group intended to ‘keep villagers healthy, happy and well-connected during the coronavirus emergency’. Many of our members are picking up shopping for self-isolating neighbours. If anyone in our Parish wishes to join the group, please contact Trish Handsley on 07919 392588 -We are using the village phone box as a Book and Jigsaw Swap – help yourself but don’t forget to wash your hands! -Ashorne Facebook page also holds valuable information on local food delivery services -Our WI committee held their April meeting using Zoom and 14 of us will be quizzing by Zoom in a couple of weeks -Our Social Secretary and Quiz wizard Helen Oakley has set us a couple of brainteasing quizzes (delivered through letterboxes for those not on email) -Our members continue to knit tiny cardigans and hats for Warwick Hospital Special Care Baby Unit as well as hats, scarves and gloves for the WI Homeless appeal -Of course we are out there at 8pm on Thursday evenings banging pots, pans, bells and playing our trumpets in recognition of all our NHS and public service workers WI May Update Cont… Some of us have joined the Warwickshire Scrubbers Facebook Group joining others across the county in getting our sewing machines out to make scrubs, hats, bags and headbands for NHS clinical staff in local hospitals.

  • Indices of Multiple Deprivation 2015
    Warwickshire Observatory Briefing Note: Indices of Multiple Deprivation 2015 Introduction The new English Indices of Deprivation 2015 (IMD 2015) have recently (30/09/15) been released by the Department for Communities and Local Government. These replace the Indices of Deprivation 2010 (IMD 2010) as the official measure of deprivation in England. The Indices provide a set of relative measures of deprivation for small areas, known as Lower Layer Super‐Output Area (LSOAs), across England based on seven domains of deprivation. LSOAs have an approximate population of 1,600 people and allow the identification of small pockets of deprivation. There are 339 LSOAs in Warwickshire. The following domain scores are weighted and combined to produce an overall Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD): Income Deprivation (22.5%) Employment Deprivation (22.5%) Education, Skills and Training Deprivation (13.5%) Health Deprivation and Disability (13.5%) Crime (9.3%) Barriers to Housing and Services (9.3%) Living Environment Deprivation (9.3%) Further to the IMD and the seven domain indices, there are also two supplementary indices: the Income Deprivation Affecting Children Index (IDACI) and the Income Deprivation Affecting Older People Index (IDAOPI). The IMD 2015 ranks all areas in England based upon their scores generated from a number of different indicators for the various types of deprivation detailed above. A low rank denotes greater deprivation. A ranking of 1 represents the most deprived area and a ranking of 32,844 represents the least deprived area nationally. The ranks allow direct comparison between other areas across the whole of England. The Indices of Deprivation were created as a measure of relative deprivation rather than absolute deprivation, therefore it cannot be used to determine ‘how much’ more deprived one LSOA is than another.

  • “Yes, We Remember It Well!”
    “Yes, we remember it well!” A Lighthorne anthology of reminiscences of the 1940s Lighthorne Village School circa 1939 Foreword It is hoped that you will, depending upon your age, either share a little nostalgia from things which others remembered and you had forgotten; if you're not yet sixty-something, discover just what it was that made your Pensioner neighbours into the kindly/irascible old souls they have become or, if you are very young, learn what it was like to have been your age in the 1940s. A brief explanation of the background to this slim volume may be helpful. During Lighthorne's “Sixty Years On” week-end celebration to mark the anniversary of the end of the Second World War, it was noticed that a local school had asked its pupils to interview their grandparents and older neighbours about living in England in the Forties. Perhaps, it was suggested, a collection of such Memories could be gathered together and published for the benefit of subsequent generations' curiosity. A general request was made for contributions – not only from people who were resident in Lighthorne at the time (although three of the contributors do appear in the cover photograph) but from all the present inhabitants regardless of where they lived in those distant days. No “rules” were laid down. That's why some entries cover the whole decade while others limit themselves to the War years only. The anecdotes flowed in. Some related to a single incident while others ranged more widely through the authors' childhoods. Nor was a specific format suggested – that's why some contain continuous paragraphs and others have neatly-placed titles and headings in the text.

This document forms part of the Local Development Framework which is a portfolio of documents replacing the Local Development Plan. The SCI outlines the council’s commitment to consult on the preparation of its planning policy documents and planning applications at key stages throughout the process.

The results of that consultation have informed this draft document which is now subject to a six week consultation period. You are invited to comment upon this draft document and to register your interest in any of the future documents that we have planned by completing the questionnaire accompanying this SCI. If you registered at the pre-production consultation stage, there is no need to do so again.

  • The Americans in Moreton Morrell Introduction
    Great War in the Villages Project The Americans in Moreton Morrell Introduction At the outbreak of the Great War two related wealthy American families resided in Morton Morrell and were determined to help the war effort. At the outbreak of the War Robert Emmet , who was born in New York in 1872, was living at Moreton Paddox with his American wife, Louise. His family was very wealthy. He came to England at the end of the nineteenth century. Ironically he gave substantial support to Britain’s war effort despite being the great grand nephew of Robert Emmet the Irish Patriot who was sentenced in 1803 in Dublin to be hung drawn and quartered. i At the time of the 1901 Census he was living in Barford at Watchbury, Church Street with Louise who was born in 1877 and also came from a rich New York family involved in banking. They had three infant sons. The eldest was Robert Emmet born in 1898, then James Albert Garland Emmet born in 1899 and Thomas Addis Emmet born in 1900. All three were to serve in the British armed forces. The two oldest in the army and Thomas in the Royal Navy, Robert the eldest was to lose his life. Also living with them was Charles Tuller Garland , Louise’s brother who was born in 1875. Circa 1904, Robert wrote to his own University, Harvard from the Priory, Warwick that he had “bought 500 acres in the centre of Warwickshire and was building an Elizabethan house and stables etc named Moreton Paddox” and that he “added to his menagerie a little tow-headed girl Aileen born on 26 th December 1903.” The 1911 Census shows only Aileen now age seven living in Moreton Paddox attended by house of servants.
