The Littleton Link February 2020 The Littleton Link February 2020 Editors letter Dear All Welcome to the February edition of the Link. I hope by the time you get to read this that you will have either taken part in the Big Garden Birdwatch, for which results need to be in by 16 February, or are helping to keep our birds going through the lean months of winter? At the time of writing we’ve not had any of the white stuff yet like the cover picture taken last winter, but almost all the berries are gone from my garden shrubs. Did you get to see the ‘Wolf Moon’ penumbral lunar eclipse on 10 January? Luckily the clouds cleared when the eclipse started at 5 pm but it was a chilly evening for moon-gazing. This edition we’ve got appeals for volunteers, the final instalment of Dave Smith’s ‘Trip of a Lifetime’, plus reports from all our usual contributors too. If you’d like to see anything new in here please don’t be afraid to send it through. Kind regards, Mary Cover photo: Redwing (Chris Jennings) 2 Dates for your diary Day & Event Time Location Date Wed 5 Feb Wednesday Club 2:30 pm Village Hall Tues 11 Feb Littletons WI 7:30 pm Village Hall Wed 12 4:30 to 6 Middle Feb Youth Bus pm Littleton Wed 19 Feb Wednesday Club 2:30 pm Village Hall Wed 19 N&M Parish Feb Council meeting 7 pm Village Hall Thurs 20 South Parish Feb Council meeting 7:30 pm Scout Hut Tues 25 10:40 to Feb Mobile Library 12:00 various Tues 25 Feb Village Hall AGM 7:30 pm Village Hall Wed 4 Mar Wednesday Club 2:30 pm Village Hall Details of all events can be found in this or past editions of the Link which are also available online at: http://www.southlittleton.org.uk/The_Littleton_Link_6377.aspx 3 LITTLETON FOOTBALL CLUB FEBRUARY & MARCH FIXTURES February 1 WEM Town Home February 8 AFC Bridgnorth Away February 15 Worcester Raiders Home February 22 Darlaston Town Home February 29 Black Country Rgrs Away March 7 Bilston Town Comm Home March 10 (Tues) Wednesfield (7:45pm) Home March 14 Cradley Town Away March 21 Bewdley Town Home March 28 Worcester Raiders Away All games are 3 pm kick-off, unless otherwise stated.

  • Lime Kilns in Worcestershire
    Lime Kilns in Worcestershire Nils Wilkes Acknowledgements I first began this project in September 2012 having noticed a number of limekilns annotated on the Ordnance Survey County Series First Edition maps whilst carrying out another project for the Historic Environment Record department (HER). That there had been limekilns right across Worcestershire was not something I was aware of, particularly as the county is not regarded to be a limestone region. When I came to look for books or documents relating specifically to limeburning in Worcestershire, there were none, and this intrigued me. So, in short, this document is the result of my endeavours to gather together both documentary and physical evidence of a long forgotten industry in Worcestershire. In the course of this research I have received the help of many kind people. Firstly I wish to thank staff at the Historic Environmental Record department of the Archive and Archaeological Service for their patience and assistance in helping me develop the Limekiln Database, in particular Emma Hancox, Maggi Noke and Olly Russell. I am extremely grateful to Francesca Llewellyn for her information on Stourport and Astley; Simon Wilkinson for notes on Upton-upon-Severn; Gordon Sawyer for his enthusiasm in locating sites in Strensham; David Viner (Canal and Rivers Trust) in accessing records at Ellesmere Port; Bill Lambert (Worcester and Birmingham Canal Trust) for involving me with the Tardebigge Limekilns Project; Pat Hughes for her knowledge of the lime trade in Worcester and Valerie Goodbury
