In 1936 upon the death of his father, he along with his mother moved into the Cottage be- hind Rosedale in Eathorpe. He went to the local village school in Hun- ningham. In 1955/6 he met his later to become his wife, Olive, in Leamington. They were married in 1957 in Amersham, Buckingham- shire. After living in Leamington for a year, Bob and Olive returned to live in Rosedale, Eathorpe in 1958. After leaving school Bob worked as a gardener in Hunningham, then changed direction and became an electrician working for a number of years at Thwaites. Eventually a hobby that he and Olive were in- terested in became a full time occupation — Tropical fish. They end- ed up with shops at Coventry, Rugby and Whitnash. After Olive passed away in 2012, Bob continued to live at Rosedale until ill health forced him to move to the Royal Leamington Spa Nurs- ing Home. Bob sadly passed away on the 2nd October. HUNNINGHAM CHURCH IS STILL LOCKED We are opening it on request most Saturday mornings at 10– 11.30am. Please contact Hazel Taylor (632428) for more details. We still have seats outside our church, with beautiful views, where we can stop individually for meditation on our daily walk. COMMUNITY CAFÉ The Community Cafe opened once again in a garden in Hunningham on the first Wednesday of September (as the last Wednesday in Au- gust the 'team' were busy with Holiday Club). 13 Visitors brought their own chairs, mugs and drinks - and a delicious cake was provid- ed. Our next meeting is WEDNESDAY 4th NOVEMBER at 10.45am. We are holding it in OFFCHURCH VILLAGE HALL. Please come and join us. We will keep Social Distancing! Tea, coffee and cake will be pro- vided. If you are “worried” please bring your own flask. If you need further information, please contact Hazel Taylor 632428. After this the next coffee morning will be on WEDNESDAY 25th November. 3 4 ECO-VANDALISM CONTINUES I predicted in the last issue of the W2HEN that, following the des- ecration of trees in Hunningham, that the Cubbington pear tree would be next. Sadly, this happened a week or so ago. I don’t trust myself to write about this, so I will use the report in The Guardi- an. Cubbington pear tree felled to make way for HS2 A pear tree, thought to be more than 250 years old, has been cut down to make way for the HS2 rail line. The "Cubbington Pear" was voted the best tree in England in 2015 in a poll run by the Woodland Trust, which said it was "shocked and upset" by the news. It was nominated by the Cubbington Stop HS2 Group, who had campaigned for the Warwickshire tree to be saved. But HS2 said the tree near Leamington Spa would live on in the form of saplings grown from cuttings. The proposed high-speed line will link London with Birmingham, but has been criticized due to its rising cost and planned route through areas of coun- tryside. The Save Cubbington Woods group wrote on its Face- book page today: "There is a sense of numbness as this takes its toll on us all." It said the tree had become symbolic of the move- ment to stop "the ill-conceived madness of HS2". Woodland Trust ecologist Luci Ryan said: "We are shocked and upset that HS2 have felled the historic Cubbington Pear, despite a long battle to save it." ILL-CONCEIVED MADNESS, INDEED! 5 VILLAGE NEWS DATES FOR THE DIARY: CHRISTMAS EVE 4.00pm As we are not going to be able to hold a CRIB SERVICE in WESTON this year INSTEAD We are in preparation for a Special Nativity Trail at Wetherle Manor with thanks to the Morton Family.

Japan has suffered 972 deaths from the virus so far, compared to the UK’s 43,659. Nobody is quite sure why this is so low. 7 TAKE AWAY OR EAT OUT Our local businesses, cafes and pubs, mostly had to close during the period of lockdown, but did not stand still. For example, The Plough in Eathorpe still runs a take-away service for their delicious Tex Mex food. Just call them on 01926 633105 or look at their page on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/ hillbillysgrillshack/. Their menus are regularly updated. They are also taking bookings for restaurant service, but YOU MUST BOOK! 8 The restaurant and shop at Hilltop Farm are open for business and they are also doing home deliveries and take aways. Looking for home delivery? Get your weekly produce fresh from the Farm Shop delivered direct to your door. Delivery is free to local vil- lages and towns within 5 miles from the farm shop, with a small deliv- ery charge to other areas within Warwickshire. Delivery slots are available on Wednesday or Saturday afternoons. Call 01926 632978 or go to https://www.hilltopfarmshop.com/shop/ Also, every Friday and Saturday, Hilltop Farm run their wood-fired pizza takeaway service. You simply pre-book and pay for your pizza and then collect from Hilltop Farm in your chosen time slot to take home and enjoy! Their delicious pizzas are all made from fresh, seasonal ingre- dients in the kitchen and cooked to order in their wood-fired pizza oven. Highly recommended! 9 The Red Lion at Hunningham is also open again. If you want to eat inside, you need to ring to book a table, but if you are happy to sit outside, enjoying the last days of the summer, just turn up. The Red Lion has the big advantage for those of us with four legged friends of being completely dog friendly. Email them at [email protected] or call on 01926 632715 10 HUGH’S PASTORAL LETTER November 2020 Glyn tells me that he knows when I am at home, because he can hear my chainsaw. That is a bit harsh, but I have to admit, I do like my chainsaw. It’s all down to Walter, my Vicar from when I was a curate. Walter was a gung-ho priest; the more physical the task, the happier he was! So when he wanted to remodel the churchyard, he put a chainsaw in my hands and had me dropping trees in one hit! I re- member my first attempt. I was cutting a sixty footer and failed to keep the cut horizontal. There was that ominous crack and the whole tree danced round on the uneven cut. And it fell perfectly between two headstones. Lucky boy! Next to my chainsaw, I like a good garden bonfire! Sorry Hunning- ham, but I do try to get the wind in the right direction before I start! Now with November 5th almost upon us, it is just one more excuse and the pile is growing! Winter and bonfires just go together, don’t they? The crackling heat and dancing flames look fantastic against the backdrop of starlit night sky. And to be warmed at the edge of that circle of light, well …. I have just been reading Luke’s account of Jesus saying to Zacchaeus, the hated tax collector, “I must stay at your house today”. Invitations to be with others in their homes are not generally possible for us at this time.

  • Eathorpe WEB PDF Conservation Area Leaflet.Cdr
    E a t h o r p e C o n s e r v a t i o n A r e a Areas of Special Architectural or Historic Interest S S A A E E R R A A N N O O I General Introduction I T T Old buildings and their settings are an important part of our local and national heritage. It is important to preserve them A A both as a historical and social record, together with a V pleasant environment to be enjoyed both by those who live in V them and for the enjoyment of others. To assist with the R proper protection of these areas, the designation of areas of R special architectural and historic interest as Conservation E Areas was first introduced in 1967. E S The village of Eathorpe has been selected as a place with S special characteristics worthy of designation as a N Conservation Area. The maintenance of the character of this N area is an important working partnership between those who live in the Conservation Area, the Parish Council and the O O District Council, with a view to householders and visitors to the village enjoying its special characteristics. C C In many ways, Conservation Areas are a fragile environment which can soon be destroyed by unsympathetic changes or lack of maintenance. It is, therefore, important that all the partners involved are aware of, and appreciative of, the qualities which exist in the Conservation Area and also the controls that may be used to assist in its maintenance.

  • Warwick District Council Ward Boundaries Warwick District Council Submission on Warding Arrangements
    LGBCE Review of Warwick District Council Ward Boundaries Warwick District Council Submission on Warding Arrangements 1.0 Introduction 1.1 This submission is made on behalf of Warwick District Council and is based upon the decision of the Council’s Licensing & Regulatory Committee on 11 January 2018. 1.2 This Council has a fundamental principle that wherever reasonably practicable the Electoral Boundaries should be coterminous, but in doing so they should meet the criteria for electoral equality, the interests and identities of local communities and should promote effective and convenient local government 1.3 Having considered this the Council believes that the proposal it has outlined in this submission meets the criteria for the review and would provide an approach that would best meet the needs of the local communities within Warwick District. 1.4 To achieve this outcome, the Council is proposing 20 Wards with a mixture of 1, 2 and 3 Councillors to represent each Ward to give electoral equality but also to recognise the individual communities within the District. 2.0 Delivering electoral equality for local voters 2.1 The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) has accepted the methodology for local elector growth within Warwick District from 109,855 in September 2017 to 123,333 in 2023. Following the decision by the LGBCE to set the Council size at 44, this provides an elector to councillor ratio in 2023 of 2803 to each Councillor. 2.2 The proposal from this Council works on a principle of coterminous boundaries across the District except for a few exceptions, to improve electoral equality within the towns of Leamington and Warwick.
