If you’re free the last Sunday of the month between 2 & 4pm, why not pop in for free tea & cake and find out what’s going on? We’re happy to connect neighbours who can help each other out as circumstances change, temporarily or as needed: Following a brief medical mishap, *Ava found her recovery could be made much easier with a couple of bits of equipment, but she didn’t want to invest in them permanently, as she was on the mend. We were pleased to be asked to find a Good Neighbour who had several items that Ava could use for a few weeks, such as a frame to help steady her as she got out of bed. Ava says, “it’s been a real help, and I haven’t had to waste money on something I only needed for a short while! I have some other items that the Good Neighbours might be able to offer someone else when they need them, so I feel that I can support the Good Neighbours & other villagers, as well as knowing where to turn in the future if I need a bit of help” * Not her real name Why not speak to Good Neighbours if you have something useful that one of your neighbours might find helpful for a short period? Or, if you are getting rid of a perfectly useful bit of kit, perhaps one of your neighbours could benefit from it, rather than the tip! We will always keep your information securely, and all our volunteers are checked, so you know you can trust every official Good Neighbour you meet. Don’t forget !! Byfield Good Neighbours can offer you regular friendly contact– call us to arrange a helping hand if: • You’d like to join in a Byfield activity or attend an event but want a bit of company to begin with. • The dark nights mean you can’t get to your favourite activity. • You could be a Good Neighbour by having a regular chat – in person or on the phone – with one of your neighbours. Last Sunday of the month, 2-4pm in the Village Hall Feb 23rd Mar 29th 3 Join hundreds of residents lowering their energy bills People are being urged to sign-up for the Big Switch to help ensure they are on the best deal for their gas and electricity this winter. Around 90% of residents who signed up to the last scheme in the autumn were offered a better energy deal, providing the opportunity to make savings of about £240 per year on average. The winter auction process has now launched and Daventry District residents are urged to sign-up before registration closes on 10th February. Everyone who signs-up before the deadline will be entered into a national collective, with energy companies then invited to bid for their custom in an auction. Because the auction is an opportunity for energy companies to secure thousands of customers in one go, the deals they offer in a bid to win that auction are often better than those advertised to the general public. The sign-up process is quick and easy, with just an annual bill or indication of annual energy usage required. Following the end of the registration period, everyone who signed up will be sent an offer indicating any savings they could make. There is no obligation to accept that offer and no fees or charges involved, whether people decide to switch or not. People who switched providers through last winter’s auction are particularly encouraged to register again, as their fixed-term contract will be coming to an end and this is an opportunity to secure another good deal through the scheme. Big Switch Daventry District is a joint effort between Daventry District Council (DDC) and its switching partner iChoosr. People are urged to sign up by visiting www.daventrydc.gov.uk/bigswitch or phoning 01327 871100. For further information please contact: Ian O’Pray, Media Officer at Daventry District Council, on 01327 302310 or email [email protected] 4 BYFIELD PARISH COUNCIL The Parish Council has its own website www.byfieldparishcouncil.org.uk/ where all agendas, minutes and useful documents can be seen. The Parish Council normally meets on the second Thursday of the month in the meeting room of the village hall starting at 1930 hrs. Members of the press and public are always welcome to attend. Chairman’s Report The many displays of trees and lights around the village looked lovely this year, thanks to everyone who makes such special efforts to brighten our community. Just before Christmas a number of Parish Councillors were joined by all classes from the School to plant bulbs around the attenuation pond at the top of Clock Meadow, the children also did a litter pick and later a small march around the village to protest about climate change. (It’s all go in Byfield). Environment The Parish Council is grateful to villagers who trim grass, plant shrubs or otherwise maintain public areas near their property, it is a neighbourly thing to do. No one should place themselves at any risk doing this and of course it does not create any exclusive rights of access or ownership to a piece of land. Heavy rain saw the car park by the Scout HQ and Pavilion flooded and more distressingly the Scout building itself under water again. Many came and helped and the Parish Council will look at what can be done to prevent this in the future. Pocket Park and New Wood The Working Party continues to do sterling work, they meet monthly and anybody is welcome to join on an informal basis. Each month we have a working party in Pocket Park. Recent activities have included wild flower seed sowing, bulb planting, and clearing of brambles. We usually meet on the third Thursday of the month, but will be having a break in January, as the weather is usually against us. Hopefully you can still come along when we start again, it’s friendly, informal and no specials skills or knowledge is required, Tools can be provided, gloves are a good idea. We meet at 10.00 am at the Burial ground off the Farndon Road with coffee and cake provided and work for around about two hours, or whatever time you feel comfortable with. If you would like to get involved please contact Cllr Boddington for more information [email protected] Speeding Traffic / Speed Watch The Speed Indicator Devices will continue to monitor vehicle movements and speeds and provide useful supporting evidence for road safety measures. The police will continue to monitor and prosecute offenders on two sites in the village and the community team will be out again in the spring when the equipment is available. 5 Allotments If you are interested in renting an allotment please contact the clerk [email protected] Byfield Parishioners have priority on the waiting list. Footpaths We continue to monitor the local footpaths and to engage with the landowners (who have responsibility for things like gates and stiles). Please report any problems to the clerk and follow the country code by cleaning up after your dog.

  • Recollections of the First Hundred Years of Badby and Fawsley Women’S
    Recollections of the first hundred years of Badby and Fawsley Women’s Institute 1918 – 2018 Preface The original purpose of the Women's Institute was to bring together women of the countryside who might otherwise be isolated. Badby and Fawsley W.I. was formed in February, 1918 by Lady Julia Knightley of Fawsley Hall. It enabled local women to meet with others who lived in a rural setting. Activities and meetings leant toward domestic matters. Lady Knightley wished that the ladies of Badby be joined together by the 'common ideals of truth, tolerance, justice and friendship'. Protocol had to be, and was, adhered to rigidly, with some members getting irate if it was not. Rules were kept. Institutes at the beginning were considerably helped and financed by the Board of Agriculture but by 1922 the Institutes had to stand on their own feet. Lady Knightley was, inevitably, chosen as the first President. She remained President for 15 years until she moved from Fawsley. It had been her drive and energy which had caused the group’s inception because she strongly believed that belonging to the Institute would “brighten the lives and widen the outlook of the women who lived in the country districts.” Sadly all Archive material from early years has been mislaid. It was thought that it had been lodged at the County Archives but searches there have drawn a blank. 1 Meetings The first meetings were held in the ‘club room’ of the Maltsters, and then in a small room which was formerly the infant’s school room.

  • Sheep and Enclosure in Sixteenth-Century Northamptonshire* by JOHN MARTIN
    Sheep and Enclosure in Sixteenth-Century Northamptonshire* By JOHN MARTIN Abstract It is commonly accepted that there was a slackening of the enclosure movement, if not outright reconversion to arable, in England in the latter half of the sixteenth century. This is usually ascribed to lower wool prices making shecp-grazing less attractive. There are difficulties with this pcrspective linking prices and enclosure activity directly. The example of Northampton- shire, a county in the forefront of enclosure, suggests that there was no trend away from sheep-farming. Two surveys of sheep numbers on enclosed pasture, conducted in 1547 and 1564, indicate that sheep-grazing spread throughout the county, and that grazing was concentrated on deserted village sites. Whilc there was some reduction in the size of large flocks, this was more than balanced by the proliferation of smaller flocks - overall sheep numbers increased in this pcriod. By the end of the century, sheep flocks were grazing on enclosed pasture in half of thc parishes in Northamptonshirc. INCE Bowden's detailed work on wool prices was its role in explaining the pattern prices for the period 149o-161o , it of the Tudor enclosure movement. He S has been argued that, after the mid- sought to draw a dividing line down the sixteenth century, lower wool prices rela- middle of the sixteenth century on this tive to those of wheat deflected graziers basis. from sheep-farming and halted the process Thc rcason why farmers were enclosing their land of enclosure, or even caused a considerable for pasture in thc first half of the sixteenth century reconversion of pasture to arable land.
