Village News - Farlam Parish Summer 2020 June to August We L C O M E Village News - Farlam Parish Summer 2020 June to August We l c o m e Well, it’s not difficult to pick the main talking point around the world at the moment. Most of us will know or have heard some bad news on friends, relatives or work colleagues who have been infected with COVID-19. Like so many events of this nature, the situation brings out the very best and the very worst in human nature. From the tireless efforts of hospital staff to the ignorance and stupidity of those who chose to ignore lockdown measures, the full range of mankind’s ability to try and save or destroy itself has been shown to us via our TV screens. Looking to the positives, the weather has been really good, and most of us with a garden will have spent a lot more time in it than we had perhaps planned. Our pace of life has slowed down, time to reflect, read more and listen to more music than usual. Baking product sales have never been so good, and baking powder is now as rare as hens teeth! Claire and I have been spending half the working week down at the Hub, where, along with the other volunteers, we have been keeping the shop open and arranging deliveries of food to those self - isolating. The kind and positive feedback from them has kept us going in these difficult times, and a big thank you to all those who are helping in making this happen. What the future holds, no one knows, but the world will certainly have changed for the experience and lets hope that it reacts in a positive and supportive way. Stay safe, think of others and lets look forward to a time when life can return to some sort of what passes for ‘normality’. This is our first electronic version of the Village News. We have emailed out to many residents and it is also available on the Farlam Church website. Please tell your friends and neighbours or email them a copy. A few hardcopies will also be in the Hub. Please contact us at [email protected] with any news, views or articles for the Autumn issue, which will be hitting your doorstep in September. Deadline is Saturday 15th August. Paul & Claire Skeates Food Bank The closure of schools has meant that those families who may struggle through the summer holidays with providing regular and substantial healthy meals for children now suddenly face this issue for a much longer period. In response to such needs a Food Bank has just been set up in Brampton Community Centre. It is a satellite of the Carlisle Food Bank and is called SHINE. It delivers food parcels. To request help (it covers a very wide area) or to volunteer ring 01697 927 005 or text 07723 573 202. Donations can be left at the Community Centre on Tuesdays and Thursdays 9 – 5pm and Saturdays 9 – 12 noon. They are currently short of baby essentials such as nappies, wipes and baby jars of food, but are always very grateful for any donations. For further information see back page. Funerals, Christenings and Weddings We’re very sorry that spring and early summer weddings and christenings have had to be cancelled until further notice. This is a great disappointment for those concerned, and as soon as the relevant restrictions are lifted we hope we will be in a position to plan these services again. Funerals can only take place under certain constraints: none can take place in church, but minimal numbers can attend graveside services. Attendance at crematorium funerals is limited to 12, and the time available cut to 20 minutes. But do get in touch with the vicar for further clarification. We anticipate that some will want to arrange memorial services when the restrictions are lifted, so there can be an opportunity for a more normal celebration of the life of a loved one.

May Winners: It is also heartening to see people using the opportunities of the present to have more time for one another. In normal times we often 1st Prize £25: No. 98 Kate Apperley had to pass like ships in the night, but now some can take time to have long conversations by phone, or over garden hedges, or when 2nd Prize £15: No. 151 Gary Clifford encountering each other – at a safe distance – on a walk. 3rd Prize £10: No. 75 Eileen Shaw None of this is to minimise the cost of the lockdown on the mental health, stress and anxiety of many.

For this reason, Landmark's Site Sensitivity maps and Datasheet(s) place great emphasis on statutory data provided by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency; it also incorporates data from Natural England (and the Scottish and Welsh equivalents) and Local Authorities; and highlights hydrogeological features required by environmental and geotechnical consultants. It does not include any information concerning past uses of land. The datasheet is produced by querying the Landmark database to a distance defined by the client from a site boundary provided by the client. In this datasheet the National Grid References (NGRs) are rounded to the nearest 10m in accordance with Landmark's agreements with a number of Data Suppliers.

  • Share Prospectus 2017
    Hallbankgate Hub Ltd: A Community Benefit Society Share Offer You are invited to join a community enterprise providing a shop and cafe in Hallbankgate and a Hub for the village and the surrounding area. There has been a co-operative in the village of Hallbankgate for more than 130 years. It is part of the history and fabric of the village and has been a lifeline for many people. We want to continue this rich tradition of having a shop at the heart of the community. Scottish Midland Co-operative Society took ownership of the village shop in 2013 and closed it at the beginning of June 2015. Hallbankgate Hub Ltd, a Community Benefit Society set up by local people in 2015, then raised funds to buy the premises and re-open a shop combined with a café and community facilities in Hallbankgate. This now provides local residents with an attractive, friendly place that meets most of their shopping needs. By extending the services provided beyond those of a traditional Co-op we hope to ensure that the shop is viable and has a secure and certain future. The Hub is owned and controlled by the community through the Community Benefit Society. It can issue shares to ensure that everybody in the community who wishes can be a part-owner of the business and thus join in the process of deciding its development and its future. If you are not already a shareholder, the Management Committee of the Hub now invites you to buy shares for this purpose. This offer stands open indefinitely.

But too many of them are suffering from neglect, decay and pressure from development. Heritage at Risk is a national project to identify these endangered places and then help secure their future. In 2008 English Heritage published its first register of Heritage at Risk – a region-by-region list of all the Grade I and II* listed buildings (and Grade II listed buildings in London), structural scheduled monuments, registered battlefields and protected wreck sites in England known to be ‘at risk’.

  • Political Society in Cumberland and Westmorland 1471-1537
    Political Society in Cumberland and Westmorland 1471-1537 By Edward Purkiss, BA (Hons). Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. School of History and Classics University of Tasmania. 2008. This Thesis contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis and to the best of my knowledge and belief no material previously published or written by another person except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of the thesis, nor does the thesis contain any material that infringes copyright. 30 May, 2008. I place no restriction on the loan or reading of this thesis and no restriction, subject to the law of copyright, on its reproduction in any form. 11 Abstract The late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries have often been seen as a turning point in the development of the English state. At the beginning of the period the authority of the Crown was offset by powerful aristocratic interests in many regional areas. By the mid sixteenth century feudal relationships were giving way to a centrally controlled administration and government was reaching into regional political communities through direct connections between the Crown and local gentlemen. This thesis will trace these developments in Cumberland and Westmorland. It will argue that archaic aspects of government and society lingered longer here than in regions closer London. Feudal relationships were significant influences on regional political society well beyond the mid sixteenth century. This was a consequence of the area's distance from the centre of government and its proximity to a hostile enemy.
