Your FREE MAGAZINE for Kirkheaton, Upper Heaton, Gawthorpe, Bog Green, Briggate, Houses Hill, Wellhouse ISSUE 21 & Lascelles Hall NEWS SUMMER 2018 A vision for our future KIrkheaton Future writes.... Our draft Neighbourhood Plan is due for completion by August 2018 and you will then have a third chance to have your say on the future of Kirkheaton. Various workshops and the comprehensive survey of residents and businesses in 2017, have already highlighted what people want our future village to look like. The overwhelming view was that: • the village should, as far as possible, remain within the boundary of the present built-up area • brownfield and small sites should be developed first for housing and other purposes this issue • business and jobs should be promoted INSPIRATIONAL • green spaces should be retained and enhanced SARAH • the transport and road system should be improved MULTI SPORTS • priority should be given to the building of affordable and extra care housing CLUB Also through preparing the Neighbourhood Plan a number of previously unknown RECYCLING issues have emerged which are now being incorporated into the plan. EYESORE They include • the need for additional recreational facilities • the urgent requirement for extra care housing to meet the needs of older and vulnerable people now living in unsuitable standard housing • the importance of protecting and managing our historic and ecological heritage in a more effective manner. Concurrently Kirklees Council is compiling its own draft Local Plan. We have presented the views of Kirkheaton at the Local Plan Examination and hopefully the draft Local Plan will be amended in order to reflect the village’s priorities and preferences.

Please let us know your views and have your say when the draft Neighbourhood Plan is published. This is the best chance we all have to shape the long-term future of our village. Don’t waste it!

2 THE BROWN COW INN GEORGE HERBERT HIRST’S* BIRTHPLACE The inn was situated off St Mary’s Lane near to the present day junction with Furnbrook Gardens. Like most Kirkheaton inns the property was owned by the Whitley Beaumont Estate. This photograph dates from around 1911 when the landlord was Job Hirst.

The inn and adjacent farmhouse had been in the Hirst family for well over 100 years but was closed in 1927 under ‘the 1904 act to extinguish licences under compensation provisions.’ The following account appeared in the Yorkshire Post dated 3rd June 1927. One of the licences objected to, was that of the Brown Cow Inn at Kirkheaton, held by J Ogden Binns. The house was described as the birthplace of George Hirst, the famous Yorkshire cricketer. An old village inhabitant, Law Earnshaw, said this was so. According to him, the house had been in the Hirst family for a hundred years, and fifty Hirsts had been born there. A point made in objection to the house was that it was not equipped with beer pumps and that beer had to be brought from the cellar. Earnshaw said that he and his friends used the place more or less as a club and that they had no fault to find with the quality of the beer. In spite of this however the licence was referred for compensation. The inn closed and was subsequently demolished by Kirkheaton UDC for road widening. The original line can still be seen as you wait for buses bound for Huddersfield. *George Herbert Hirst (7 September 1871 – 10 May 1954) played cricket for Yorkshire and England. He played in 24 Test matches, making 790 runs and capturing 59 wickets. He toured Australia twice. Hirst stated: ‘I attribute my ability in later years to the persistent practice which half a dozen of us Kirkheaton lads put in night after night in all departments of the game. We used to take the side nets away and every had to be fielded.’ He also practised his skills in the backyard of the pub and in the nearby croft.

Now she has other things in her sights. In June she ran the 10km Race for Life in Leeds. She is also in training for tackling the Coast-to-Coast Walk (around 192 miles) in September. She added ‘As a teenager I was very conscious of my deformity and lacked confidence in myself but setting these goals and pushing myself has given me confidence and I have learnt to love my body.’ Her message is ‘If you look different to other people it doesn’t matter - you have to be confident in who you are.’ Sarah is also planning to train for a bodybuilding contest in April 2019 although she is anxious to stress that it will be about toning her body rather than piling on the muscle! We wish her well.

DOG FOULING ISSUES AROUND THE VILLAGE Dog fouling is not only antisocial but will also spread disease, especially in hot weather, due to the prevalence of flies. As parents have been complaining about the state of footpaths around school, Kirkheaton Primary School Council designed some anti dog fouling posters and they were also given others by a parent. These were put on display outside the school and have made a great difference so far. Clearing up after dog fouling is an essential part of being a responsible dog owner/walker. It ensures that fouling is not spread underfoot or transferred by bicycle and pram wheels, thus lowering the risk of disease. 4 TheTheThe whole wholeThe Thewhole Thewhole communitywhole community whole community community community community is is invited invitedis isinvited isinvited is invitedto to invited to to to to KKKIIKKRIRKIRIKKRIRKHRHKKHKEHEHEAHAEAETTAEATOOATOTNOTNONON N N CommunityCommunityCommunityCommunityCommunityCommunity GalaGalaGalaGalaGalaGala
