The parishes of Alfreton, Riddings and Ironville lie to the east of the county of Derbyshire in the East Midlands. The market town of Alfreton has a long history, though the popular claim that it was founded by King Alfred the Great is questionable. It came to prominence as a centre for coal mining, and has some fine examples of 18th century architecture such as the old George Hotel and Alfreton Hall, built by local mine owners. After the closure of the mines in the 1960s, the Hall’s estate was bought by the County Council, and is now part of a public park with swimming and sports facilities, while the Hall itself is a popular venue for weddings. The town has modern shops and services including supermarkets, banks, high street chains and independent retailers. The village communities of Riddings and Ironville are within three to four miles of Alfreton and have good transport links. There are primary schools in all three parishes, and a secondary school in Alfreton. There are also secondary schools in the neighbouring parishes of Swanwick and South Normanton, and in Ripley and Denby. Derbyshire is a large area geographically with diverse landscapes. Much of the county is rural with agriculture the dominant industry but there is also a long history of mining and quarrying. Busy market towns such as Chesterfield, Bakewell and the spa towns of Buxton and Matlock are set in beautiful countryside and there are many picturesque and historical villages. The county has its own identity and traditions including Well Dressings and the famous Shrovetide Football Match in Ashbourne. Britain’s first National Park, the Peak District, covers 500 square miles, three quarters of which lies within the county boundaries of Derbyshire. The parishes are in easy reach of both the National Park and the Derbyshire Dales. The city of Derby is nearby and there are good links to Nottingham, Sheffield, the M1 and national rail services. The county has long been popular with tourists and continues to offer much to the visitor including the impressive historical homes of Chatsworth, Hardwick, Haddon and Kedleston, as well as leisure activities such as climbing, walking and fishing; Carsington Water offers sailing and other water sports. The city of Derby boasts Pride Park Stadium, home to Derby County Football Club, a velodrome, cinemas, a library, museums and theatres as well as a large shopping centre and a university. 3 Parish Profile – St Martin Alfreton, St James Riddings, Christ Church Ironville – October 2017 2. What we’re looking for in a priest and our vision for the future. The communities of Alfreton, Riddings and Ironville were shaped by mining and other heavy industries. Since the closure of the mines, there has been redevelopment and regeneration, but they have yet fully to embrace a new identity. National statistics reveal that unemployment is quite high and educational qualifications quite low. The Diocese has just appointed the Revd Imogen Black (currently licensed to these parishes as Associate Priest) to a new role as Area Missioner. We are therefore looking for a priest with vision, energy, and enthusiasm, and compassion for all people, who will work alongside her in bringing God’s love to these communities. In particular, we are looking for a priest who: • has a passion for the Gospel, and for mission and outreach • is approachable and supportive, with the ability to nurture and develop people’s gifts and potential • works well collaboratively • is a good communicator, well organised, and can prioritise tasks • can work comfortably within the churches’ current mix of Liberal Catholic and Central traditions, while being creative in how to engage new people in the congregations • has a good sense of humour and who will: • develop the connections with local schools, especially David Nieper Academy in Alfreton (the secondary school) • encourage families and young people to join our worshipping communities • explore how the churches can help improve the lives of disadvantaged people locally • raise the profile of the churches in the community • nurture the existing congregations in their discipleship • engage with the local community including businesses, local government, community groups and care and residential homes 4 Parish Profile – St Martin Alfreton, St James Riddings, Christ Church Ironville – October 2017 Our vision for the future Currently, the three parishes are not a legal entity – while Riddings and Ironville have been a United Benefice since 1986, Alfreton is a separate Benefice. However, the three parishes have shared an Incumbent since 2008, and expect this to continue. Somercotes, again, is a separate Benefice, which has only started working with the other three since 2015; this is a much looser arrangement, as the church still makes decisions as an independent parish. For example, the four churches have chosen to share Advent and Lent courses, but there are no plans for Somercotes to join in the current pattern of “fifth Sunday” united services. It is possible that, in due course, the four churches will become a Team Ministry, but any such decision is still some way in the future. For the present, the churches are committed simply to working together to spread the Gospel in these communities. In doing so, we have a shared desire to: • be places of love and welcome for all people, regardless of background • invite people to discover, or deepen their experience of, the life-changing presence of God • support and resource each other, sharing our gifts, our knowledge and experience, and our ideas • help the people of our parishes, and especially those in need, towards the fullness of life promised in the Gospels • work alongside other groups in the community in spreading God’s love It is also our hope that, through working more closely together, we may not only find support from each other, but will be enabled to focus on our particular sense of calling. While the old parish model tended to expect every church to offer all things to all people, by sharing in mission and ministry, each of our four churches will be freed to work to its own strengths and aspirations. 5 Parish Profile – St Martin Alfreton, St James Riddings, Christ Church Ironville – October 2017 3. Information about our churches Worship The churches’ tradition is a mix of Liberal Catholic and Central; full Eucharistic vestments are worn at St Martin’s and St James’, and the Sacrament is reserved in all three. All use Common Worship Order One on Sundays but there is some use of BCP midweek. All churches also have an open baptism policy. Service times and activities can be found in the next section. Colleagues The Revd Julian Penfold – NSM Curate to all three parishes, in his third year of training. Mr Peter Singleton – Reader and Chaplain to the Police Force. Peter is based at St Martin’s but works across all three parishes. The Revd Imogen Black – Priest in Charge of St Thomas, Somercotes and Area Missioner. She currently holds a licence to Alfreton, Riddings and Ironville as Associate Priest. The churchwardens for all three parishes and that of St Thomas, Somercotes, meet on a regular basis to discuss shared business. 6 Parish Profile – St Martin Alfreton, St James Riddings, Christ Church Ironville – October 2017 4.

  • 1 Made in Derby 2018 Profile Bess of Hardwick
    Made in Derby 2018 Profile Bess of Hardwick Bess of Hardwick has been described as one of the richest women in England during Tudor times and a good friend of Queen Elizabeth I. She also had an obsession with building. This is borne out by the wording on her marble tomb effigy in Derby Cathedral - the parish church of All Saints in Bess’s lifetime - which describes her as the “aedificatrix’ (builder) of Chatsworth, Hardwick and Oldcotes. Both Hardwick Hall – old and new- Chatsworth House – still exist and stand as a testimony to both Bess’s wealth and her building fervour. Althougnothing remains of Oldcotes, which was built for her son William Cavendish. And although she spent much of her life marrying four times, having eight children and building grand houses in the north of the county, she also found opportunity to be in Derby. She had a town house built on the north side of the Market Place. This was a large brick Tudor house, which enabled Bess and her husband, Lord Shrewsbury, to attend functions in Derby and probably later became Newcastle House and large parts of this were not demolished until 1971. Earlier in 1599, Bess decided to found a charity in Derby to the rear of All Saints Church in Full Street. 1 It was called the Shrewsbury Hospital, later to become the Devonshire Hospital but more likely to resemble almshouses, to house eight poor men and four poor women, to be endowed with a rent-charge of £100 per annum. The lucky people were to be chosen from the parishes of All Saints’, St.

  • Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site Every Autumn - This Year Between 26Th October and 3Rd November
    DerwentThe Valley The Valley that changed the World DISCOVERY DAYS 2013 26th October to 3rd November 9 days of events & activities 1 There’s so much to see and enjoy during the Discovery Days Festival held in the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site every autumn - this year between 26th October and 3rd November. Experience a charming blend of breathtaking natural scenery, fascinating industrial heritage and pure spectacle and fun in the Derwent Valley. Designated as a World Heritage Site in 2001, the Derwent Valley Mills have been described as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. It was here in the Derwent Valley that the essential ingredients of factory production were successfully combined. Water power was applied and successfully used for the first time on a relatively large scale. Not only was textile production revolutionised with dramatic consequences for the British economy, the Arkwright model also informed and inspired developments in other industries. Each mill has its own story to tell. Theirs is the story of pioneering engineers and entrepreneurs who put Britain on the map and set off a chain of events which ushered in the Industrial Revolution. The mills and the industrial settlements around them, the churches, millponds, weirs and watercourses provide the perfect backdrop for a week full of discovery. Booking: To ensure a place at events please pre-book on 01629 536831 - 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday (unless otherwise stated) Or Email: [email protected] Some activities within this booklet need to be booked directly with the organisers and the booking information is given within that specific listing.

    Dean of Derby Candidate Briefing Pack October 2019 CONTENTS Foreword from the Bishop of Derby .................................................................................................... 3 Dean of Derby Role Profile ..................................................................................................................... 4 Context ........................................................................................................................................................ 7 Additional Information............................................................................................................................ 11 Foreword from the Bishop of Derby I am hoping to appoint a Dean with imagination, drive and energy to lead the Cathedral forward in its mission and ministry as we enter a new decade, and a new phase of life across the diocese. The next Dean of Derby will be committed to the nurture of the Cathedral community in faith, witness and service, growing its current congregations, and discovering ways to reach new and more diverse people. The Dean will continue to be creative about growing the influence and reach of the cathedral as a key partner in the city and region. They will be able to oversee the development of buildings to be fit for purpose and lead the strengthening of the Cathedral’s financial and governance resilience. I am aware that the Cathedral requires stability and continuity (the number of Deans in the past decade or so leaves the Cathedral feeling somewhat vulnerable) but partnered with creativity and challenge. There is much that is good and strong, and the potential is considerable. The Diocese of Derby, too, is in transition, facing considerable challenge and exciting opportunity. The Dean will be a partner in that wider vision setting and strategic planning for the whole diocese. The new Dean, therefore, will have a wide perspective and a long view, and be able to expand horizons and raise expectations for the Cathedral, city and diocese.
