Dear Friends The year 2019 is now well underway and the anticipation of Spring will help us through the last weeks of winter. I wonder how many of those resolutions made on January 1st are still on track – more exercise, few- er cakes…! Many of us have a problem with stick-ability, keeping go- ing with something, especially if it’s hard going. It’s not just New Year’s resolutions that get abandoned either. Do you, like me, have books that just never got finished, jumpers half knitted? How many DIY projects started with such enthusiasm actually make the final comple- tion. There are always more who start a course of study than finish them. Not being able to see things through seems to be something many of us struggle with to some degree. Although it frustrates me, as deep down I would like everything to be neat and tidy, I am learning to live with incompleteness. Someone once said to me, ‘if you expect every- thing to be sorted and orderly you will be disappointed because life is not like that’. He was so right, life doesn’t always work out the way you’d hoped, some dreams are realised, others are not – that’s how it is. Being able to accept that, is the beginning of finding peace. In God’s eyes we are each a work in progress, and unlike some of my aban- doned projects, God never abandons us, never gives up on us. Church is not a place for people who have their lives sorted out, quite the opposite, it’s where people who know they haven’t got everything sorted, people who are only too aware of their need, can come and find acceptance and love through Jesus. Messy Church has its name, not so much because we often use paint and glue, but because it rec- ognises that life is often ‘messy’, not straightforward and that’s ok. So don’t beat yourself up about abandoned New Year resolutions. Don’t feel bad about the things you haven’t achieved. You are a pre- cious unique person, beloved by God just as you are. With very best wishes, Judith 4 KESWICK CHORAL SOCIETY SEASON 2018-2019 CHORAL EVENSONG FOR PASSION SUNDAY Sunday 7 April 2019, 4.00 pm St Andrew’s Church, Dacre Preces and Responses - Smith of Durham; Canticles in C – Stanford; He that shall endure to the end - Mendelssohn Organ - Mike Town; Conductor - Ian Hare.

The WI plays a unique role in providing women with educational opportunities and the chance to build new skills, to take part in a wide variety of activities and to campaign on issues that matter to them and their communities. We are very keen to welcome new members and visitors are very welcome. We do all we can to make them feel at home.

Future meetings: Feb 11th Barbara Williams: Boots Buses and a Van called Vera March 11th Ruth Sutton: Writing Cumbrian Novels Come and join the fun! Messy Church is church for ALL AGES together. Where? St Herbert’s Church, Braithwaite When? Sundays 4.00 to 5.30pm Feb 10th Self Confidence Mar 10th Dusty Drawing What? Crafts, activities, bible stories, prayers, songs and a meal! It’s amazing what you can pack into just over 90 minutes. Have a go at some of the crafts and activities as a family. We’ve made ‘donkey dung’ and pizzas, we’ve made sweets and iced biscuits; made Bethlehem out of old boxes and used Lego for all sorts. The food is good. It’s home cooked and you don’t have to cook it. Most importantly it’s a chance to meet and make friends and together explore and celebrate life. 6 Charitable Giving from TBN As a parish we aim to give away at least 10% of our income to good causes including local national and international charities. In previous editions we’ve shared some information on the local Food Bank where we have given some of the money. In 2018 charities included: Crisis at Christmas; Churches Housing Trust, Christian Aid and the Friends of Mary Hewetson Hospital. We also gave money to Water Aid and Blood Bikes Cumbria: Water Aid (£400) https://www.wateraid.org/uk/why-wateraid ‘Clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene are basic human rights. They should be a normal part of daily life for everyone, everywhere – but they aren't. That's why we're here’. "Having a water point would mean having enough time to farm. It would mean a change for our children’s future. They would live a free life because they would be able to attend school." Blood Bikes Cumbria (£350) http://bloodbikescumbria.org.uk/ Blood Bikes Cumbria is a Registered Charity 1159026 established by local volunteers formed as a medical courier service to deliver essential blood and urgent medical supplies out of hours Asmall group meets from time to time to decide how we should allo- cate our giving.. We’ll look again at priorities for 2019. Hospice at Home Events Jigsaw Sale at Braithwaite Institute on Saturday 23rd February 10.30am - 3pm Refreshments will be available All proceeds go to “Hospice at Home” Braithwaite CE Primary School, Braithwaite, Keswick, Cumbria Head Teacher: Mrs J Laker Tel: 017687 78356 Website: www.braithwaite.cumbria.sch.uk Striking Tree Art Project Pupils have created a show stopping, large-scale artwork for the entrance hall to Braithwaite School which represents the school’s motto of ‘learning together, grow- ing together’. Every child in the school was asked to get involved in this unique project to produce the special piece of art which features their 12 Christian values. Claire Grant from ‘Active Art’ helped design and build the 2.5m high installation, after having worked with the school on a range of other projects. ‘The result looks wonderful and is real- ly eye-catching’ said Claire. Headteacher Jo Laker commented: ‘Our pupils often say art is their favourite sub- ject and we think it is important that subjects like art don’t get squeezed out of the curriculum. Our pupils achieve well. We were 10th in the Cumbrian league tables for Key Stage 2 performance, but we don’t want high achievement at the expense of a broad and engaging curriculum, with Christian values such as forgiveness and love which run like a golden thread through everything we do’. 8 F. & W.

  • Newlands Valley Walk
    Newlands Valley Walk You can start this walk from virtually anywhere in the Newlands valley; I started from a couple of our Lake District cottages at Birkrigg on the Newlands Pass. Walk down the road in the direction of Keswick, you will soon come to a tight bend at Rigg Beck where the ‘Old Purple House’ used to stand. There is now a Grand Designs style house on the site but the purple colour remains on the roof garden and the front door. Carry on along the pass till you come across a gate on the right hand side and a finger post indicating a footpath beyond the gate. The path leads down into the valley fields and across a minor road. A track climbs up the other side of the valley and emerges at Skelgill. Walk through the farmyard and turn immediately back on yourself to join the path that runs alongside Catbells, towards the old mines at Yewthwaite. After about half a mile, the path descends into Little Town where you can enjoy a well earned cup of tea at the farm tea room. Now there are two options from Little Town. For a longer walk, go back up onto the track and carry on down the valley. This will take you to the old mines at Goldscope where you can peer into the open shafts on the side of Hindscarth. Alternatively you can walk along the road towards Chapel Bridge and stroll down the lane to the pretty little church. The church serves tea and cake on weekends and during the summer.

  • Inn Way to the Lake District
    Walking Holidays in Britain’s most Beautiful Landscapes Inn Way to the Lake District The Lakes Inn Way is a 90 mile circular walk starting and finishing in the popular tourist town of Ambleside. This trail takes in some of the more remote corners of the Lake District, and takes you through the Lake District’s stunning deep sided valleys, along lake shores and over remote mountain passes – as well as past over 40 traditional Lakeland inns. The full route takes you through the popular tourist towns of Ambleside, Coniston, and Grasmere (site of Dove Cottage, former home of the Romantic Poet Wordsworth), as well as through a few of the Lake District’s most impressive valleys – Borrowdale, Ennerdale, and Great Langdale, linked together with paths over high mountain passes, with great views of the surrounding fells. A highlight is a visit to remote Wasdale Head, in the shadow of Scafell Pike, the highest mountain in England. Why is the route known as the Inn Way to the Lake District? Because it is devised so that at each day the route passes a pub at lunchtime and there will always be one nearby – or you will be staying in one – at each overnight stop. There are many traditional Lakeland Inns to choose from, – so you can plan your trip looking forward to log fires, local ales and good food, often made with local produce.

  • Political Society in Cumberland and Westmorland 1471-1537
    Political Society in Cumberland and Westmorland 1471-1537 By Edward Purkiss, BA (Hons). Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. School of History and Classics University of Tasmania. 2008. This Thesis contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis and to the best of my knowledge and belief no material previously published or written by another person except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of the thesis, nor does the thesis contain any material that infringes copyright. 30 May, 2008. I place no restriction on the loan or reading of this thesis and no restriction, subject to the law of copyright, on its reproduction in any form. 11 Abstract The late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries have often been seen as a turning point in the development of the English state. At the beginning of the period the authority of the Crown was offset by powerful aristocratic interests in many regional areas. By the mid sixteenth century feudal relationships were giving way to a centrally controlled administration and government was reaching into regional political communities through direct connections between the Crown and local gentlemen. This thesis will trace these developments in Cumberland and Westmorland. It will argue that archaic aspects of government and society lingered longer here than in regions closer London. Feudal relationships were significant influences on regional political society well beyond the mid sixteenth century. This was a consequence of the area's distance from the centre of government and its proximity to a hostile enemy.

  • Cumbria Classified Roads
    Cumbria Classified (A,B & C) Roads - Published January 2021 • The list has been prepared using the available information from records compiled by the County Council and is correct to the best of our knowledge. It does not, however, constitute a definitive statement as to the status of any particular highway. • This is not a comprehensive list of the entire highway network in Cumbria although the majority of streets are included for information purposes. • The extent of the highway maintainable at public expense is not available on the list and can only be determined through the search process. • The List of Streets is a live record and is constantly being amended and updated. We update and republish it every 3 months. • Like many rural authorities, where some highways have no name at all, we usually record our information using a road numbering reference system. Street descriptors will be added to the list during the updating process along with any other missing information. • The list does not contain Recorded Public Rights of Way as shown on Cumbria County Council’s 1976 Definitive Map, nor does it contain streets that are privately maintained. • The list is property of Cumbria County Council and is only available to the public for viewing purposes and must not be copied or distributed.

  • Thornthwaite 2019 Village Survey
    Thornthwaite 2019 Village Survey Above Derwent Parish Council has asked me to review and update the content for Thornthwaite in the Parish/Community Plan to reflect any concerns residents may currently have in 2019. The original plan was published in 2012 and can be found on the ADPC website. Achievements as a direct result of the 2012 survey included: • car park at St Marys church • purple refuse bags to collect recycling • monthly village coffee mornings • additional gritting bins • voluntary car service publicity All Thornthwaite residents, homeowners and businesses are now invited to respond to this survey, and we encourage each of you to respond individually rather than completing just one for the household. A small group of residents have already reviewed the 2012 plan and identified 13 issues over 24 questions. We have included notes to provide context for each question, and most only need a yes/no answer. However we'd encourage you to add your comments, feedback or views after each question. Maybe we've missed the point or you have some other information to share. There is also a space at the end of the survey for anything extra you want tell us. This way the updated village plan will better reflect your opinions. If an online survey isn't your thing paper copies, including large print can be requested from Kim or Keith (details below) or downloaded from the ADPC website.
