  • Revd Greg Price: New Priest at Tuxford with Low Marnham, Normanton-On- Trent, West Markham & Weston
    Issue No. 10 February to April 2015 Welcome to the tenth edition of the Newark and Southwell Deanery Newsletter. Dear All, Very soon the identity of our next Diocesan Bishop will be announced. As I write this article, Bishops Tony Porter and Richard Inward continue to head the leadership team along with our Archdeacons Sarah Clarke and David Picken and of course all the folks at Jubilee House. In January in our Deanery, we were formally able to welcome Rev. Greg Price as he took up his role within the Tuxford group of churches. Following his licencing there was an opportunity for all present to share time together and also, as part of the buffet, a hog roast. I’m very grateful for all the hard work done by wardens and others in preparing so thoughtfully for the day. On Colin Wall’s departure from the group Curate Carole Dunk has provided excellent support which I know has been appreciated. It is also a time for farewells as we say goodbye to Revds. Alison and Richard Seymour-Whiteley. Based in Farnsfield, Richard has led the Northern Lights Group. Alison has held a post at Ranby Prison for some time; she has also been a great support, taking services in vacant parishes throughout the deanery. Thank you both — you will be missed. The Deanery Newsletter Put plainly Richard and Alison’s departure to Southern Ireland means the loss of two This is your newsletter. deployable priests, leaving us with 22 vacant parishes and three vacant posts.

  • Village Structure and Buildings
    VILLAGE STRUCTURE AND BUILDINGS 1. Overview The Parish of East Bridgford is rectangular in shape, approximately 2 miles by 1 Vi miles (an area of 1950 acres), sited on a ridge of hills, which rise steeply to an elevation of over 100 feet above the River Trent. From early times to the present day, the river crossing has pro­ vided the only "paved" crossing point between the two major towns of Nottingham and Newark. The nucleus of the village has developed around the medieval square of the ancient archery butts (hence Butt Close, still the village recreation area), which provides coherence to the roads, footpaths and buildings, which have evolved over the centuries. A comparison of the 1612/1614 Magdalen College maps with the Ordnance Survey map of 1950 indicates virtually no change in the road layout of East Bridgford. All buildings con­ structed during this three century period were related to this road structure and any popula­ tion growth was achieved by rebuilding on existing foundations or by 'in-fill' between exist­ ing properties. The 1801 Enclosure Award, apart from eliminating strip farming cultivation, did result in five additional 'Bridle roads' outside the village nucleus: • Fossefield Road (now Occupation Lane), from Kneeton Road to the Newark turnpike; • Hoveringham Ferry Road (now Old Hill Lane), from Kneeton Road to the ferry, • Mill Close Road (now Closes Side Lane), from Straws Lane to the Newark turnpike. • Pinfold Lane (now Lammas Lane), from College Street to Kneeton Road. • Burrows Road, (the old Roman Streete Way), from Kirk Hill to Margidunum. The Enclosure Award also established some 'Public footways' which became important means of access and communication for future generations of village residents:- • to Bingham from Springdale Lane.

  • Nottinghamshire Aviation Memorials
    Nottinghamshire Aviation Memorials Aviation | Aviation Memorials in Nottinghamshire We love to commemorate our aviation heritage. In Nottinghamshire We Love To Commemorate Our Aviation Heritage The diversity of aviation memorial locations across the county is impressive. These memorials are not just at airfield sites, but they can also be found in churches, village halls, on city streets and at remote countryside locations. Some memorials are relatively new, whilst others can trace their origins back Nottinghamshire decades. These memorials, some of them raised through public subscription, reflect the lives of national figures like Albert Ball VC; whilst others are simpler marks of respect that have been erected thanks to the efforts of small groups of individuals. There are even sculptures and pub signs that highlight the county’s contribution to the development of significant aviation technologies. Collectively they play a part in helping to commemorate the county’s aviation heritage. Many individuals had travelled from around the world to air bases in Aviation Memorials Aviation | Nottinghamshire to train as World War II bomber crews. A common bond that joins most of these memorials together is that they commemorate the lives of brave individuals who were lost whilst learning these new skills; often in difficult weather conditions, a long way from home and in a relatively congested airspace, caused by having a lot of airfields so close together. For each of the memorials listed we have provided some background information about the crews involved and the circumstances of the crash; this is merely a snapshot of incidents that are recorded in more detail in books and on websites and we would encourage you to investigate them further.
