I am a retired Chartered Chemist, a Member of the Royal Society of Chemistry and a Member of the Chartered Quality Institute. For the last 15 years I have been Chair of the Planning Committee of Brickhill Parish Council, an urban parish council in the north of Bedford. 2 I have also been Chair of the Cycling Campaign for North Bedfordshire (CCNB) for the last four years and Vice-Chair for the previous 14 years. 3 CCNB has been promoting cycling and campaigning for cycle infrastructure in the Bedford area since 1992. 4 CCNB does not object to Network Rail's proposed rebuild of the Bromham Road railway bridge to allow the Midland Main Line to be electrified as far as Corby, only to the plans absence of a dual use footway/cycleway across the bridge. 5 Bedford has always been a 'Town of Cyclists'. 5.1 Way back in 1935 a Ministry of Transport census showed that cycles accounted for 80% of vehicular traffic in Bedford, similar to levels found in the Netherlands. 5.2 In 1945 a traffic census found that 'for 10 minutes in one midday period cyclists passed the census takers at the rate of three thousand per hour'.

If they attended school at all they would have gone to a School run by a charity or religious society, a Dame school, a Sunday school or even a workhouse school. Evidence for the education of girls before the 19th Century is scanty but the Emery’s Charity School in Meppershall was teaching girls to read in the late 17th Century (P29/25/1).
