  • Faith in Derbyshire
    FaithinDerbyshire Derby Diocesan Council for Social Responsibility Derby Church House Full Street Derby DE1 3DR Telephone: 01332 388684 email: [email protected] fax: 01332 292969 www.derby.anglican.org Working towards a better Derbyshire; faith based contribution FOREWORD I am delighted to be among those acknowledging the significance of this report. Generally speaking, people of faith are not inclined to blow their own trumpets. This report in its calm and methodical way, simply shows the significant work quietly going on through the buildings and individuals making up our faith communities. Such service to the community is offered out of personal commitment. At the same time, it also deserves acknowledgment and support from those in a position to allocate resources, because grants to faith communities are a reliable and cost effective way of delivering practical help to those who need it. Partnership gets results. This report shows what people of faith are offering. With more partners, more can be offered. David Hawtin Bishop of Repton and Convenor of the Derbyshire Church and Society Forum I am especially pleased that every effort has been taken to make this research fully ecumenical in nature, investigating the work done by churches of so many different denominations: this makes these results of even greater significance to all concerned. I hope that a consequence of churches collaborating in this effort will be an increased partnership across the denominations in the future. Throughout their history Churches have been involved in their communities and this continues today. In the future this involvement is likely to result in increasing partnerships, not only with each other but also with other agencies and community groups.

So many parishes in S.E. Derbyshire have been dealt with in this Series that it was hoped and intended that the present volume would be devoted entirely to the High Peak district and would contain a compact group of adjacent parishes, an arrangement which always brings out in a peculiar degree the value of this method of printing the complete Marriage Registers of a whole district. Unfortunately it was not found possible to obtain sufficient MS. from the High Peak without delaying indefinitely the issue of the volume, already overdue. The latter third of the book, therefore, has been filled with the important Register of Repton, the MS. of which had been ready for some time. The Repton abstracts were made by Mr. Simpson and Mr. E. B. Smith ; those of Chapel-en-le-Frith, which contain so many entries of old-established Peak families as to be of exceptional interest to genealogists, were done by of Fairfield Mr. W.

  • Possible Origins for the Sheffield Plants
    Chapter 15 Possible Origins for the Sheffield Plants ASSESSING THE POSSIBILITIES FOR THE FIRST SHEFFIELD AREA PLANTS October 1997. One of a series of Chapters by Dr. John S. Plant, Keele University, England, ST5 5BG. his Chapter sets out Plant data which, with fuller study, might help to establish the likely ori- T gins of the first Sheffield area Plants. Though possible forefathers for Lawrence of Bakewell and Francis of Buxton seem few, there are more possibilities to consider when trying to identify £¥¤§¦ the antecedents of the progenitor ¢¡ of the Duckmanton Plants. Two different schemes, in particular, are appraised in this Chapter. Possible schemes may be educed from such sources as data for Plants at Great Longstone, 15 miles SW of Sheffield, as well as elsewhere such as further to the west near 17th century Staffordshire. As indicated earlier, Plants arrived, by 1725, at Duckmanton — some then travelled 10 miles NNW to Sheffield, where they became those who have been called the Plant’s Yard Plants — many of their progeny remained there, such as the Sheffield shoemaker £©¨ ¦ William (i.e. ¡ ) who was one of the closest Plants to Plant’s Yard by the times of the 1841 Census. 15.1 The changing distribution of English Plants ¥ "!$#&%' (#)+*,.-/#"$0-/#"!$1,2%'3!45-.6 & "!879,.-/: ; #",<!44¥=>#) "?@=>#"AB0-/#"!$ ,'CED 45=>#& "?F =G6-.AB* ),@,.!$=G'-/#&=G,H7I#"-/JF-/JKA/ "!L%'0-/#"!$M!4N7IJ!$ "64¥=>#) &#",G,O7 ) I, 72#"-/JP-/JQ=H "R!0ST,.U AV#&H72J !H!45-.K=>!8*>,.'*'AV =>#& ",XWY'45!A/Z,.'-.-/ &#)[#&P=>0AVAV#)0C \ -O,.'=>,>-/J10-']X#)F,/:

Cover photographs A common perception of the Peak District karst hydrogeology is that it is dominated by sinking streams that feed caves which in turn discharge substantial flows of water from large springs such as Peak Cavern Rising (left). However, over much of the area where limestones crop out there is only dispersed autogenic recharge through a soil cover and surprisingly little evidence of karstic drainage, particularly at depth. During the excavation of stone from Ballidon Quarry in the southern White Peak no caves were encountered and the 100m of limestone exposure (right) shows only an epikarst below which there are no visible conduits and nothing to suggest concentrated drainage.
