  • Tame Valley to Heights
    Along the Tame Valley to Heights Start: Millgate Car Park, Millgate, Delph Distance: 8.2 kilometres/5 miles Ascent: 270 metres/885 feet Time: 3 hours Introduction Starting from the quaint little village of Delph this easy, delightful walk sets out along the Tame Valley, where you will see rich evidence of the area’s historic and industrial past. At the head of the valley, you will pass through Denshaw, Saddleworth’s most northerly village, which has seen human activity since the Stone Age. Leaving the valley, the route now crosses farmland to the 18th century Heights Chapel, which has appeared in several films and television productions. Here you can enjoy a rest in the Heights Pub before making the final short descent back into Delph. Walk Description Nestled at the convergence of the Castleshaw and Denshaw valleys, Delph derives its name from the old English word ‘delf’, which means ‘quarry’. Bakestones were quarried in the Castleshaw Valley, just to the north of the village: the three-quarter inch thick quarried tiles were used to bake oatcakes and muffins. The area was probably first populated around the time that a Roman garrison was stationed at the Castleshaw Fort in AD79. From the late 1700s, the area supported the thriving textile industry, and the centre of the village has changed little since the early 19th century. The start point for this delightful walk is Millgate car park opposite the Co-operative Hall. Built in 1864, the hall is now a theatre and library and is managed by a local theatrical group called Saddleworth Players.

This took place on the 25th September, three days after our Annual General Meeting. The launch was combined with a day school on “Mapping the Past” which was held under the auspices of the South Pennine History Forum, a group of local history societies from across the South Pennines. Much of our efforts since the launch have been directed towards promoting sales of the book and during the year we have held several exhibitions and book-signing events. The production of the book has been a monumental task for the Society and I would like to pay tribute to all the hard work that went into it by the publications committee. But all the effort has been worth it; the book is a wonderful production which enhances our reputation as a local historical society.

  • Transport for Students Aged 16-19 in Continuing Education
    Transport for Students aged 16-19 in Continuing Education Academic Year 2019/2020 BACKGROUND 1. This policy has been developed in response to responsibilities placed on the LA under the consolidated version of the Education Act 1996, Learning and Skills Act 2000, Education Act 2002, Education and Inspections Act 2006 and Education Skills Act 2008, in respect of transport arrangements for 16-19 year olds in continuing education. SCOPE AND COVERAGE OF THE POLICY 2. The policy relates to provision planned for the academic year 2019/20, i.e. from 1st September 2019 to 31st August 2020. 3. The policy is in two parts: the main body provides background and context; the support available to students, which is provided through the partners, is described in detail in Annex A. 4. Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the detail contained in Annex A, the Council reserves the right to modify the detailed arrangements over the life of this policy. 5. In line with the legislation, this policy is primarily aimed at full-time students aged 16-19 inclusive, with support continuing to the end of the course, where the course started before the student had reached the age of 19. In this context, a full-time education means a programme of education provided by a recognised provider such that the young person’s timetable taken across all courses would require him or her to be in a class, or other taught or guided study session, (including practical work), for at least twelve hours per week. A learning programme means full time education (as defined above), or; a YPLA or SFA funded Foundation Learning programme.

This was obviously a great loss to his family, and also to his friends, all to whom we extend our heart-felt condolences. Peter had only just commenced his service with the committee and was looking forward to help the Society grow. His loss is our sad loss. Your committee is still struggling to operate as well as we would wish due to a reduction in the number of trustees. There just aren’t enough to carry on the business of the Society properly. This year Charles Baumann has left the committee after many years of service when he undertook various tasks such as chairing lectures, organizing fund raising Flea Markets with me, publicising our events and other ventures as the need arose.

This was obviously a great loss to his family, and also to his many friends, all to whom we extend our heart-felt condolences. Tony has been of great help to the Society during his all too short a tenure as committee member, taking on all sorts of tasks, particularly those of a physical nature now becoming beyond the reach of some of us. The Society is in a poorer state for his passing. Your committee is still struggling to operate as well as we would wish through lack of committee members. There just aren’t enough to carry on the business of the Society properly. Recent fall outs from the committee include our hard working publicity officer, Charles Baumann, who has resigned due to family and other commitments however he has intimated that he would be available to help out on occasion subject to his availability from his other extensive interests.

  • Grab a Quick Snack at Pumpkin Café Shop ...Or Sit and Relax for a Bit
    grab a quick snack at Pumpkin café shop .....or sit and relax for a bit longer over a coffee and a bite to eat at Caffé Ritazza — Shudehill Interchange has it all and more”. The café shop never opened and Caffé Ritazza closed within a few weeks through lack of custom. Compare this with Huddersfield bus station below at 11.35 on a Saturday morning. Together with a daily passenger throughput of 33,000+, it has thriving retail units and a very busy café especially popular with O.A.P’s. All the 31 pairs of automatic doors work here too! Note the large pair of overhead double-sided electronic departure boards. Had the £28 million been spent on a grand central interchange at Piccadilly Gardens incorporating trams, buses and National Express, we should now have a facility that would have really enhanced the city and been popular with both passengers and bus operators. We believe the gardens are owned by the City Council so land acquisition costs would largely have been avoided and the £28 million gone so much further in providing a magnificent interchange. Instead of that we’re stuck with a red brick office block, an ugly concrete wall, portable urinals at weekends and probably the worst city centre bus waiting facility in the country! Wouldn’t you say a lack of foresight both by GMPTA/E and the City Council? 11 BURY INTERCHANGE: Automatic doors were fitted a few years ago to five stands (P to V) and were probably expensive. They’ve not worked for at least 18 months if that, and remain permanently open.
