He is not here….. April 2020 He has risen!” (Luke 24 v5) 2nd Edition I’m so glad that, in this country, Easter comes at the time of year when creation seems to be waking up after that period of cold weather and long nights.

So, at Easter time, we can, if we wish, focus on holidays, Easter eggs and old films on the telly. But what if we delve a little deeper into the reasons behind the season? If we do, we’ll find something much richer, something that has the power to change our lives forever. Easter offers us the possibility of knowing that God is near and the chance to get to know Him. We are part of His creation, individually crafted with our own, unique mix of qualities and attributes. And the creator loves His creation and offers us the gift of life for all eternity. All because of His son, Jesus Christ, who was killed on Good Friday and was buried. Everyone thought that was the end but, thankfully, God had other plans. Someone said to Joseph of Arimathea, ‘That was such a beautiful, costly, hand -hewn tomb. Why did you give it to someone else to be buried in?’ ‘Oh,’ said Joseph, ‘He only needed it for the weekend!’ NOTE: April’s Memo had gone to print before the recent At Easter we remember that empty tomb of Jesus – yes, empty and Coronavirus restrictions were put in place - so please take this never to be filled again.

  • Nurture Eden Doorstep Guide to Great Salkeld
    NURTURE EDEN DOORSTEP GUIDE TO GREAT SALKELD SPONSORED BY WETHERAL COTTAGES-4 STAR COUNTRY COTTAGES Welcome to Wetheral Cottages, situated in delightful grounds on the edge of the peaceful village of Great Salkeld. As well as enjoying the peace and quiet, there’s plenty to see and do in the area. The cottages are perfectly located for exploring the beautiful scenery, dramatic fells and picturesque villages of the Eden valley, right from the doorstep. So get your fix of Cumbrian fresh air and give your car a break too. WALKING AND THE DROVERS Great Salkeld lies at the cross roads of several ancient droving routes, once travelled by farmers moving livestock from the borders of Scotland or Silloth down to market in Penrith. There are several routes through the village - you could say that Great Salkeld was the “spaghetti junction” of the middle ages! Then as it is now, the village of Great Salkeld was a favourite resting spot. The Highland Drovers Inn dates back to the 1700s and it still open today should you need rest or refreshment! The walks in this guide take you along some of these well-trodden paths to landmarks old and new, and the scenery remains as breathtaking as ever. THE GREAT OUTDOORS As well as walking, the Eden valley is a haven for cyclists, so don’t forget to bring your bikes. National cycle route 7 is close by; just hop on to start exploring the picturesque villages at the foot of the Pennine fells. The river Eden flows close by, one of the few rivers in England that runs from South to North! You’ll no longer find drovers bringing their livestock to bathe, but it’s still a great place for fishing and swimming.

  • 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.
