  • A History of St. Michael's Church
    A history of St. Michael’s Church Creech St. Michael St. Michael's Church in Creech St. Michael The ancient church of St. Michael stands above the flood plain of the River Tone, in the village of Creech St. Michael near Taunton in Somerset. The church has been standing on this site since at least the 13th century, not only experiencing, but also reflecting, the changes of over 700 years. In 2013 the village of Creech St. Michael is growing fast with on-going new development. It sits just 2 miles from junction 25 of the M5 and 3 miles east from the county town of Taunton. It boasts a number of local industries and a range of facilities. As it stands now the church building presents perhaps an unpretentious and unassuming vista on the edge of the village. In the 14th century it would have dominated the area and played a central role in village life. The early history of the village of Creech St. Michael is uncertain. It is likely that the name comes from the Old English “Muchel Critch” meaning “large creek” (differentiating this village from Little Creech near West Hatch). This seems to be partially confirmed by the fact that the church was dedicated to “All Saints” until at least 1532. It is thought that the title of “St. Michael” is possibly a later corruption of “Muchel”, from the Saxon word for “great” or “large” (this had happened by 1742). What is certain is that Creech St. Michael was a thriving village under the name of Critch or Muchel Critch in the 11th century when William 1 (the Conqueror) commissioned the Domesday Book.

    Buckland St Mary Mary Buckland St who fought in WWI Remembering the men of Vanished Lives Vanished VANISHED LIVES ROSANNA BARTON BUCKLAND ST MARY PARISH COUNCIL Futility In Memory Of The Brave Men Move him into the sun— Gently its touch awoke him once, Of Buckland St Mary At home, whispering of fields half-sown. Who Gave Their Lives Always it woke him, even in France, In The Great War Until this morning and this snow. 1914-1919 If anything might rouse him now The kind old sun will know. Think how it wakes the seeds— Woke once the clays of a cold star. Are limbs, so dear-achieved, are sides Full-nerved, still warm, too hard to stir? Was it for this the clay grew tall? —O what made fatuous sunbeams toil To break earth’s sleep at all? Wilfred Owen Base of the War Memorial in Buckland St Mary churchyard ‘From Buckland St Mary there went into HM’s forces about seventy men from a population of about 450. Of these sixteen joined voluntarily all the remainder, except those underage at the time attested under Lord Derby’s scheme …1 … On the outbreak of war several ladies of the village took a course of sick nursing and ambulance work and being thus qualified they did most useful work at the V.A.D.2 hospital at Ilminster. The women of the parish were organised by Mesdames Lance and Pott and met weekly for the purpose of making pillowcases and moss bags for splints, several hundred of which, were sent to a collection station.’ (The Western Gazette) 1 See page 7.

  • Have Your Say on Speeding Along the A358 at Henlade
    For more information contact: David Fothergill t: 07765 256256 intouch [email protected] Ruishton, Thornfalcon and Henlade July 2012 Have your say on speeding along the A358 at Henlade In the twelve months to April 2012 over 5,336 drivers have been caught speeding on the dual carriageway outside the new Park and Ride. To date 2,542 have been successfully prosecuted raising over £152,250 for the treasury. Speeding can never be acceptable but for those of us who drive this route regularly it is clear that since the Park and Ride was built something is very seriously wrong! Above: David Below: Main Fothergill picture caption The problem is clearly not a lack of to go here enforcement but apparent low awareness of the speed limit by drivers. The only 30 mph signs are on the motorway slip road and the start of the speed limit zone. As a result drivers are not only speeding on this stretch of road but regularly racing the lights at the Ruishton Lane junction. Rather bizarrely current legislation does not allow any more signage or road markings to be installed in a 30 mph zone. Thus if a driver misses these 30 signs they remain totally unaware of the speed limit. One possible solution involves changing the speed limit for the dual carriageway from the motorway to the Henlade built up area to 40 mph; although this at first seems completely contrary it would then allow for the installation of considerably more signage and warning roundels on the road surface. At the same time it would be absolutely vital to ensure that the phasing of the lights provides safe crossing for pedestrians and vehicles at Ruishton Lane.
