Copies are P O Box 6, Sheep Street, also carried on The Villager Bus. Stow on the Wold, GL54 1WD DO YOU WANT YOUR HOUSE PAINTED? Just joking! Would you like to commission a line and wash drawing of your home? Telephone Michael on (01993) 891 219 for more details and to see samples of work. Pictures normally need three visits – to produce a pencil cartoon, to ink in the detail, and to apply the washes. If the weather is kind and things go particularly well I can do a picture in two visits. It is not possible to work if it might rain as the slightest drop of water ruins the job, so work is limited to the summer months. I only work from life so please do not ask me to do a picture from photographs. The copyright belongs to the person commissioning the picture. I produce pictures on a sheet of A2. This results in an image about 15 or 16 inches by 20 inches, landscape or portrait as dictated by the property to be depicted. Mounts are about 3 inches wide but can be reduced when you order the frame. The charge is £175 and for this you get a picture mounted and wrapped. If the picture fails to please you may reject it. From Nick Smith, Stow-on-the-Wold We are a local team - businessmen, firefighters, building contractors and their families, who are cycling 125 miles from Stow on the Wold to Bournemouth over the Bank Holiday weekend 4th -6th June, to raise as much money as we can for the Help for Heroes charity. I decided that I wanted to do "my bit" following an invitation from my brother in law, Corporal Rick Muirhead to a charity auction for Help for Heroes at RAF Lyneham back in November 09, following a sponsored 40 mile moonlit walk by the RAF dog handlers in full combat kit. So sitting with family and friends at The Royal British Legion one Sunday in February we plotted our charity event with much enthusiasm. Wanting to raise as much awareness as possible we contacted local papers and radio, Please look out for 24 cyclists wearing Help for Heroes t- featuring in a live broadcast in Stow square on Tuesday 11th May on BBC Glos and an shirts donated by Travis Perkins, and the support article in the Glos Echo on 10th of May.

    Reprinted from: Gloucestershire Society for Industrial Archaeology Journal for 1977-78 pages 25-29 INDUSTRIAL ABIZIIIEIILIIGY (IF p 25 MIIBHIIN I MARSH IHIIIIBESTERSIIIIIE BIIY STIPLETUN © ANCIENT ROADS An ancient way, associated with the Jurassic Way, entered the county at the Four Shire Stone (SP 231321). It came from the Rollright Stones in Oxfordshire and followed the slight ridge of the watershed between the Thames and the Severn just north of Moreton in Marsh. Its course from the Four Shire Stone is probably marked by the short stretch of county boundary across Uolford Heath to Lemington Lane. The subsequent line is diffi- cult to determine; it may have struck north west across Batsford Heath to Dorn or, perhaps more likely, may have continued along Lemington Lane around the eastern boundary of the Fire Service Technical College, so skirting the marshy area of Lemington and Batsford Heaths. In the latter case, it would have continued across the Moreton in Marsh-Todenham road and along the narrow lane past Lower Lemington which crosses the Ah29 road (the Fosse Way) to Dorn. From there it would have continued to follow approximately the line of this road up past Batsford and along the ridge above to the course followed by the Ahh, thence following the Cotswold Edge southwards. The Salt Hay from Droitwich through Campden followed the same route through Batsford and Dorn to the Four Shire Stone, where it divided into two routes. One followed the same line as the previous way through Kitebrook and past Salterls Hell Farm near Little Compton to the Ridgeway near the Rollright Stones.

  • The List Below Contains the 903 Records Referred to in GS2161, Along with 11 Records from the Diocese in Europe
    Question 91 Revd Charlie Skrine (London) The list below contains the 903 records referred to in GS2161, along with 11 records from the Diocese in Europe. The list has been produced in response to Synod question 102 Skrine: “Thank you for publishing last year the names of the 680 churches with 25 or more under 16s, and for the excellent GS2161 for this Synod. Noting that the data in GS2161 is based upon an updated list of 903 parishes, would you please publish (on the website and the noticeboard) the names of those 903 parishes (perhaps alphabetically within each of the three different attendance bands as before)?” This list is based on the Statistics for Mission 2018 dataset; those interested in using the list are encouraged to read the published methodology, which can be found in the Statistics for Mission report (pp. 43-46): https://www.churchofengland.org/media/18763 GS2161 concentrates on the 2018 “Average Sunday attendance”, based on the 2018 October count; this includes attendance at Sunday church services and Sunday fresh expressions of Church. A somewhat longer list would result if attendance at midweek services and midweek fresh expressions of Church, which is also collected as part of Statistics for Mission, were included. A slightly different list would be generated if figures from different years were used, in part because of normal fluctuations in attendance. Most of these records relate to a single church, though some are joint records. Most of these records are figures as supplied by churches, though some are estimated (based on responses from those churches in previous years).

More Campden names are contained in Christopher Fance’s thorough account of a farm in Gretton, while Jill Wilson has used her interest in Geology to draw some speculative conclusions. I hope you all enjoy reading yet another fascinating collection of articles. Details of CCHS’s recent activities with some exciting news and the programme for future talks are also contained in the last few pages. Thank you to all contributors. Please keep your news, comments, research findings and articles coming in to me.
