  • News for October 2009
    News for October 2009 Thursday 1st October - report from Bill Balchin: The first of October started perfectly with bright skies, little wind and a crisp feel in the air for the eighteen starters from Rexam with John Huish in the lead. It gets hard to make a different route between two well used points, so after Swan Lane, Frampton End, Chaingate Lane and Mapleridge Lane John took us half way up the hill out of Horton then turned left past Horton Manor and church along to Hawksbury. Although we often return on this road it is seldom used on the outward trip. The views over the Berkley Vale to your left were excellent in the clear air and bright sun. After the climb towards Hawksbury Upton we went left and right into Starveal Lane. Then just before Didmarton took a left turn to cut out a bit of main road riding. The perfect weather brought out a large contingent of cyclists from Bath to the Royal Oak, plus several others from Bristol and also a fair number of civilians - among them our own John Bishop who had previously ridden to Ashton but had got there a week early. Yes, a lot of us have done that. The pub struggled a bit with the numbers, some had the two course special and had an hour wait between main course and dessert. At two o'clock there was a mass departure into the afternoon sunshine. Unusually, the both the Bristol and Bath pelotons set off together on the same route. (see picture left).

  • HEREFORDSHIRE Is Repeatedly Referred to in Domesday As Lying In
    ABO BLOOD GROUPS, HUMAN HISTORY AND LANGUAGE IN HEREFORDSHIRE WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE LOW B FREQUENCY IN EUROPE I. MORGAN WATKIN County Health Department, Aberystwyth Received6.x.64 1.INTRODUCTION HEREFORDSHIREis repeatedly referred to in Domesday as lying in Wales and the county is regularly described as such in the Pipe Rolls until 1249-50. Of the two dozen or so charters granted to the county town, a number are addressed to the citizens of Hereford in Wales. That fluency in Welsh was until 1855oneof the qualifications for the post of clerk to the Hereford city magistrates indicated the county's bilingual nature. The object of the present investigation is to ascertain whether there is any significant genetic difference between the part of Herefordshire conquered by the Anglo-Saxons and the area called "Welsh Hereford- shire ".Assome moorland parishes have lost 50 per cent. of their inhabitants during the last 50 years, the need to carry out the survey is the more pressing. 2.THE HUMAN HISTORY OF HEREFORDSHIRE Pre-Norman Conquest Offa'sgeneral line of demarcation between England and Wales in the eighth century extending in Herefordshire from near Lyonshall to Bridge Sollars, about five miles upstream from Hereford, is inter- mittent in the well-wooded lowlands, being only found in the Saxon clearings. From this Fox (i) infers that the intervening forest with its dense thickets of thorn and bramble filling the space under the tree canopy was an impassable barrier. Downstream to Redbrook (Glos.) the river was probably the boundary but the ferry crossing from Beachley to Aust and the tidal navigational rights up the Wye were retained by the Welsh—facts which suggest that the Dyke was in the nature of an agreed frontier.

  • The Backpackers Club
    The Backpackers Club www.backpackersclub.co.uk Wye Valley Walk – May 2016 I recently spent six days hiking the Wye Valley Walk, from the mid- reaches in Hereford to the source of the river, near Plynlimon in mid Wales (see http://www.wyevalleywalk.org/ for route etc). I’d started this adventure last October, taking two days to walk the 35+ miles from the sea at Chep- stow, up to Ross-on-Wye. It’s a beautiful part of the UK, as the website says ‘the perfect mix of hill and river walking’, and I was keen to do the rest. I provisionally booked the accommodation for most of the upper sections last November, but was a bit put off by the cost, with limited options in some areas and room prices up to £82/night. I then chanced across the Backpackers Club and started wondering if it might be possible to camp some of the nights instead? In January, I joined the Club, looked at the options in the LPD/FPD etc, bought a lightweight tent and other gear, and went on one of your club weekends, to help get me on the road. Chats with Anne Ling, Geoff, Sarah, Grant, and Roger at the Grand Union Canal, Rickmansworth meet convinced me, ‘why not’?
