Every Sunday a different local group or charity hosts the teas and all provide an enticing selection of sandwiches and home baked cakes and pies for sale and to take away. Many groups have sales tables and a tombola to raise extra money for their organisation. Do come along and enjoy the wonderful homemade produce served in a friendly atmosphere and support local groups. Our last Sunday Teas this season is 7th October.

Howard stirred many memories of news events and celebrities he photographed over 40 years. Thank you Howard and Janet for arranging these two events. PHOTOGRAPHY COMPETITION I said at the Photography Talk that the CA hopes to reinstate the High Legh Photographic Competition. The CA has found that, in general, events work best when we can partner with other organisations, who bring their specialist interests and expertise to the event. We have been discussing with local Photographic Societies to explore if they can work with us on the 2018 High Legh Photographic Competition. Discussions continue as it is proving hard to arrange meetings over the holiday period. So I cannot yet confirm that the event will go ahead. However... We have provisionally booked the Village Hall for viewing the High Legh Photographic Competition entries on Sunday 14th October. Confirmation about Event details will be announced though www.highlegh.org.uk and What’s On. The deadline for entries is expected to be Sunday 7th October. The provisional 2018 High Legh Photographic Competition Classes are: 1. High Legh and Cheshire 2. Nature 3. People and Places 4. Open Under 15s only 5. My best photo The competition will be open to all. People aged under 15 on Sunday October 14th can take part in all classes. So, let’s use this wonderful summer sunshine to capture some great photos, which we can all enjoy viewing in October.

The painting of the main hall and side hall will begin on Wednesday 1 August. Every attempt will be made to keep disruption to users to a minimum. The work is being carried out by Gary Percival and is expected to last two weeks. Gary will return to the Village Hall later in the year to gradually work through every area until the job is complete early in the new year. At the end of this month we are undertaking some roof repairs around the clock tower. While this work is going on we would ask all Village Hall users to use the West Lane entrance door and not the kitchen door. This is purely for your safety and the safety of our contractors. You will notice as you approach the Village Hall that, once again, the Hall is festooned with magnificent hanging baskets. Thanks go to Stewart Jackson of Primrose Nurseries for his generosity. The baskets together with the WI maintained rockery will continue to draw in customers for our famous Sunday Teas and give continued pleasure to all Hall users. Now that the Pre-school have moved to their new premises it gives us an opportunity to organise the furniture making use of the West Lane store, the side hall and the annexe as well as reviewing our requirements for the future. The Hall continues to be a magnet for parties and we have perfected our skill at getting balloons off the ceiling which is no mean feat as its 6 metres high. Should you wish to hire the Village Hall for a party, social or business event please contact Helen Wright at [email protected]. Special rates are available for High Legh residents and charities. Mike Walker ([email protected]) Co Chair HLCA COFFEE & FRIENDSHIP The dates for the forthcoming Coffee and Friendship mornings are Thursday 26 July and 27th September 10.30 – 12.00 at the Village Hall. All High Legh residents are invited to come along and enjoy a free cup of coffee/tea and homemade cake. This regular event has maintained it’s popularity and we usually get between 50 and 60 residents who come along to the Village Hall and enjoy the friendly atmosphere, meet new friends and catch up with old friends and neighbors.

    HITCHMOUGH’S BLACK COUNTRY PUBS DUDLEY (Inc. Harts Hill, Kates Hill, Priory, Woodside) 3rd. Edition - © 2014 Tony Hitchmough. All Rights Reserved www.longpull.co.uk INTRODUCTION Well over 40 years ago, I began to notice that the English public house was more than just a building in which people drank. The customers talked and played, held trips and meetings, the licensees had their own stories, and the buildings had experienced many changes. These thoughts spurred me on to find out more. Obviously I had to restrict my field; Black Country pubs became my theme, because that is where I lived and worked. Many of the pubs I remembered from the late 1960’s, when I was legally allowed to drink in them, had disappeared or were in the process of doing so. My plan was to collect any information I could from any sources available. Around that time the Black Country Bugle first appeared; I have never missed an issue, and have found the contents and letters invaluable. I then started to visit the archives of the Black Country boroughs. Directories were another invaluable source for licensees’ names, enabling me to build up lists. The censuses, church registers and licensing minutes for some areas, also were consulted. Newspaper articles provided many items of human interest (eg. inquests, crimes, civic matters, industrial relations), which would be of value not only to a pub historian, but to local and social historians and genealogists alike. With the advances in technology in mind, I decided the opportunity of releasing my entire archive digitally, rather than mere selections as magazine articles or as a book, was too good to miss.

  • Safety Showers Experts Receives Queen's Award Submitted By: Clickintopr.Com Friday, 4 August 2006
    Safety Showers Experts Receives Queen's Award Submitted by: CLICKintoPR.com Friday, 4 August 2006 During a ceremony at the company’s Stockport factory, Hughes Safety Showers (http://www.hughes-safety-showers.co.uk) has received the Queen’s Award for Enterprise International Trade (http://www.hughes-safety-showers.co.uk/Queens_Award.asp) from the Lord Lieutenant of Greater Manchester, Colonel Sir John Timmins. The company supplies emergency safety showers, eyebaths and decontamination equipment. Managing Director Tony Hughes expressed his personal pride in winning such a prestigious award but emphasized that it had been a team effort. From 2003 to 2005, export sales increased by almost 150%. The growth in business came from countries where Hughes is already well established and from new markets targeted by the recently expanded sales team. The appointment of an export manager, technical manager and the company’s first marketing manager has introduced new skills and experience. The company’s Germany subsidiary, Hughes Notduschen GmbH (http://www.hughes-notduschen.de), has played a pivotal role in expanding European business. Opening offices in North America and the Middle East (http://www.hughes-safety-showers.co.uk/world_distributors/worldHome.php) earlier this year has further strengthened the company’s position internationally. ‘The choice of products has played a key role in our success’, says Tony Hughes. ‘We’ve developed a particularly wide range and created showers and eyebaths (http://www.hughes-safety-showers.co.uk/productsHome.asp) specifically for overseas customers. They can be dispatched as sub-assemblies to minimize shipping costs and then easily built on site.

  • Royal Visits to Wigan, 1873-2005
    Wigan Archives & Local Studies Royal Visits to Wigan, 1873-2005 The following index provides an account of the visits made to the Wigan area by members of the Royal Family, 1873- 2005. The accompanying spreadsheet gives further detailed information on dates and sources, together with details of press reports of the visits made. This index was gratefully produced by Vic Rawlinson, Wigan Local Studies volunteer, from original sources held by Wigan Archives and Local Studies. Wednesday 4th June 1873 The Prince and Princess of Wales In January 1873 enquiries were made regarding the possibility of a royal visit to Wigan for the occasion of the official opening of the new Wigan Infirmary. Advice was received that unfortunately Her Majesty Queen Victoria would not be able to attend as had been hoped, but this was promptly followed by confirmation that the Prince of Wales had accepted the invitation. The arrangements were that the Prince and the Princess would be staying at Haigh Hall as the guests of the Earl & Countess of Crawford and Balcarres, whilst they were in the locality, they would be combining the visit to Wigan with the opening of a new Town Hall in Bolton and also to the unveiling of a statue in Southport dedicated to a Dr. Chadwick who had been a benefactor to that town. The Royal couple arrived at North Western Station by rail on Tuesday 3rd. June and proceeded to Haigh Hall where a formal reception was held. The following day the official party made their way to the Infirmary, leaving Haigh plantations via the Whelly gates.

  • Annual Report 2020 Welcome from Our County Chair
    Annual Report 2020 Welcome from our County Chair I am pleased to present to you the Annual Review and Report for Greater Manchester West Scout County from 1st April 2019 to 31st March 2020. Over this period there has been a huge amount of fun, hard work, dedication and time given. It is always a joy to read the review of activities and reflect on all we have done. The achievements of the young people are to be commended and celebrated. Congratulations to all who achieved the top award in their section, but also well done to all those who experienced their first night away from home, gained their first activity badge or pushed themselves and grew a little in a new area. Well done to all those young people for doing something extra and new. I would like to thank the County Executive for their help to support the County Commissioner and his extended County Leadership team in their work across our County and beyond. Even to the far reaches of the United States of America and the World Scout Jamboree. Other international, national and local adventures were backed enabling our County to provide an exciting and wide programme for our members. To help and support our sectional leaders in providing and monitoring a balance programme, facilitating the progression of young people through the award schemes, the County Executive were delighted to fund the Online Scout Manager (OSM) for all training sections within our County. A fantastic resource. Reserves put aside for the development of our new campsite at Hollinwood have started to be drawn upon.
