  • Shropshire's Churchyard Yews
    ’CHURCHYARD YEWS painted by Rev. Edward Williams M.A. more than two hundred years ago photographs by Tim Hills between 1997 and 2012 Between 1786 and 1791 Rev. Edward Williams made a record of most of ’parish churches. He was described in The Gentlem’ magazine vol 153 as “ excellent ” who had also “much of ” We are told in The annals and magazine of natural history, zoology and botany - vol 1 p183 that his studies included “ catalogue of all the plants which he had detected during many years' careful herborization of the county of ”for which “accuracy is well known, and perfect reli- ance can be placed on any plant which he ” Williams work thus gives us a rare opportunity to see some of Shropshir’churchyard yew trees as they appeared two hundred and twenty years ago. The examples below give us reason to be confident in the accuracy of his recording. The yew at Boningale (left) now has a girth of about 13ft, while that at Bucknell (centre) now has a girth of about 19ft, and the Norbury giant (right) has a girth above 33ft. His attention to detail is illustrated in this example at Tasley. In the painting we can clearly see that sections of the bole are leaning outwards, a process which has led to the distinctive yew we see today. On the following pages, 28 of the yews in ’paintings are seen as they appeared two hundred and twenty years ago and at they are now. We are grateful to Shropshire Archives for granting us permission to use their material in this way.

Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

  • Thomas Brassey and His Link to Heritage Railways No 2 the Severn
    Thomas Brassey and his link to Heritage Railways No 2 The Severn Valley Railway The Severn Valley Railway is a preserved line operating between Kidderminster in Worcestershire and Bridgnorth in Shropshire, a distance of 16 miles. The line was originally built by Thomas Brassey under a contract for the Severn Valley Railway Company and linked Hartlebury near Droitwich Spa with Shrewsbury, a distance of some 40 miles. The preserved railway now operates on part of this line and includes the link between Bewdley and Kidderminster built by others for the Great Western Railway in 1878. Work started in 1858 and included stations at Stourport-on-Severn, Bewdley, Highley, Hampton Loade, Bridgnorth, Coalport, Iron Bridge, and Buildwas amongst others. The line also included the Victoria Bridge over the River Severn near Arley and the 559 yard tunnel north of Bridgnorth. The line was opened in 1862 and absorbed into the Great Western Railway in 1863. The Severn Valley line was closed to both passenger and through freight services in 1963. The restoration of the line started with the formation of the Severn Valley Railway Society in 1965. Initially the 5 1/2 mile section of line from Bridgnorth, south through Hampton Loade, to Alveley Colliery sidings near Highley was acquired and in 1970 train services between Bridgnorth and Hampton Loade were started. In 1973 the 9 mile section from Alveley Colliery sidings through Highley, Arley and Bewdley to Foley Park was purchased and progressively opened during 1974. The final section between Foley Park and Kidderminster opened in 1984. The photograph below from September 2014 shows a scene at Bewdley, once a busy junction.
