There is little point or value in history, they say, and it is better if we close the book on pain and suffering of past wars. However memory is a God-given faculty and those who have seen human suffering cannot forget. God has given us this ability to remember the past in order to provide hope for the future and a spur to the present. As it is said, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it”, and unless we remember, future generations may be forced to live through it all again. Remembrance Sunday rightly recalls the people killed in war. It rightly honours the sacrifice of all those “who gave their today that we might have our tomorrow”. Our communities come together to remember all those killed or wounded in the two World Wars and subsequent conflicts; all those who fought for freedom against an evil regime. “At the going down of the sun, and in the morning we will remember them”. But Remembrance Day also serves to pass on to posterity the costly lessons of what led up to war, why it was fought, and how such terrible catastrophes may in future be avoided. There are now no veterans left from the First World War and the numbers who fought in the Second World War are growing fewer. But if we let Remembrance Sunday lapse then we are failing not only those who fell in war, but also younger generations. For the lessons which were learnt at so great a cost would also be forgotten, and war memorials would be no more than senseless pieces of stone. The Bible is full of history. The ancient Hebrews were always being reminded of their history. The suffering of the Jewish people has drilled into their national memory the perils of forgetting the past. As the Psalmist says: “The things which…..our fathers have told us, we will not hide them from their children…” At Remembrance-tide we should look not only at the past with gratitude, but also towards the future with hope and faith. We are to tell our children and grand-children in order “that they may set their hope in God”. We are to tell them so that future generations may not only speak of “God our help in ages past”, but also believe in God “our hope for years to come”. We are to let memories of the past and hopes of the future strengthen our resolve to obey our God, who is “the same yesterday, today and forever”, and to resolve that, come what may, we will always “at the going down of the sun, and in the morning, remember them.” May God bless you.

If you want a particular book they will order it for you. 6 FROM THE EDITOR This November, Remembrance Sunday falls on the 8th and our front cover reflects a little of what Remembrance Day means to us. Top left is a picture of the War Memorial in Edgmond High Street and below it, a photograph of a previous year’s Remembrance Service at the Memorial. Bottom left shows the moving Armed Forces Memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum in Alrewas, Staffordshire, and on the right is a photo of last year’s amazing display of 888,245 ceramic poppies cascading from the Tower of London, each representing a soldier who died in the First World War 1914-1918. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them. The next edition of the Parish Magazine and Village News will cover the two months of December 2015 and January 2016 and the deadline for contributions is Sunday, 1st November. I realise this is a dreadfully early deadline especially for dates and contributions relating to early next year, but please do deliver your items in good time to me at the address on the inside front cover – or you can email them to me at [email protected]. If this is causing you real headaches do contact me as I can sometimes accept articles a few days (not weeks!!) late provided I have warning and an idea of how much space to keep free. I’m always delighted to receive your photos too (preferably by email), especially ones of people, places and events which take place in and around our villages. Don’t forget that you can also read this magazine online on both the village and church websites (addresses on the front cover). INTER-PARISH QUIZ The first Inter-Parish Quiz between the six parishes was held on Saturday September 26th in Waters Upton Village Hall. There were 15 teams and the winners by a rather large margin were the team from Edgmond “The Weekenders”, made up of Suna and Tim Gibbs, Lucy Gibbs, Charles Gibbs, and the Rector and Jane. Hearty congratulations to them. Next year St Peter’s will host the Quiz.

  • Explore the Weald Moors
    Explore The Weald Moors A guide to the habitat, flora and fauna of east Shropshire’s largest wetland landscape EXPLORE THE WEALD MOORS A few miles beyond the historic market town of Wellington one of Shropshire’s largest and most elusive wetland landscapes begins to unfold. This is a place for quiet reflection but one where the serenity of apparent wilderness disguises mankind’s influence at every turn. Here, you’ll find an enduring stronghold for some increasingly rare wildlife, so come with us now and let’s explore the fascinating natural heritage of the wild and evocative Weald Moors… EXPLORE THE WEALD MOORS EXPLORE The East Shropshire Moorlands Flat, low-lying, and poorly drained, the Weald Moors had the ideal recipe for wetland development but how did this perfect storm ever arise? For the answer, we must go back twenty thousand years to the end of the last Ice Age when a number of glacial lakes across Turn to the centre pages to find your way on the northern half of modern day Shropshire to the Weald Moors drained, leaving a distinctive pattern of ridges and hollows that resulted in what we now The east Shropshire moorlands are a highly know as the ‘Meres and Mosses’. While sharing sensitive peat landscape characterised by their origins, the Weald Moors are neither of slow-flowing rivers and streams (known locally these things. as ‘strines’), rush-filled drainage dykes and damp pastures. This is some of the lowest and After the ice receded, peat was laid down wettest ground in Shropshire, where the high along the length of the River Strine (the main water table has helped sculpt a verdant and moorland watercourse) and its tributaries, accessible landscape with a great — but highly while islands of mineral soil formed above fragile — wetland inheritance.

  • 2005 Report.Pdf
    The Shropshire Barn Owl Group This is the third annual report of the Shropshire Barn Owl Group (SBOG) which summarises our results and activities for 2005. The year was extraordinarily successful for barn owls in Shropshire with more breeding pairs occupying nestboxes and more young produced in both nestboxes and natural nest sites monitored by SBOG than in all the three previous years combined. The policy of SBOG in siting nestboxes on land with large areas of permanent rough grassland or farms enrolled in environmental stewardship schemes and supporting extensive margins of rough grassland appears to be increasingly effective. SBOG formed in 2002 and aims to increase the breeding population of barn owls in Shropshire by providing nestboxes in areas of suitable habitat and working with farmers and landowners to enhance their habitat. The group is a voluntary organisation which depends on raising funds and donations to accomplish its conservation work. What we do • Conduct site surveys and promote the conservation of barn owl habitat with farmers, landowners, statutory authorities, conservation organisations and other interested individuals. • Operate a nestbox scheme for barn owls in Shropshire to replenish natural nest sites in trees and buildings lost to decay and development. • Monitor nestboxes and natural sites under licence from English Nature for occupation by breeding and roosting barn owls. • Maintain a database of breeding sites, nestbox occupation and breeding success. • Provide advice and practical assistance to local authorities, developers and home owners where planning applications affect barn owl nest sites. • Observe barn owls throughout Shropshire and research aspects of their behaviour in order to better understand their habitat requirements.
