  • Parish Profile for the Benefices of St James Church, Biddenham and All Saints Church, Kempston (Held in Plurality)
    The Diocese of St Albans Living God’s Love Parish Profile for The benefices of St James Church, Biddenham and All Saints Church, Kempston (held in plurality) Living to love God and serve our local communities Thank you for considering our benefices - we are grateful for your interest. First of all, can we show you a little of whom we are in a couple of photos? 1 1 Summary We are benefices in a period of transition: For years we have been two comfortable, warm parishes having many admirable features and serving an area of settled housing. We have been caring communities with a faithful core of members and full churches at the Christian festivals. We have had well maintained churches and a strong choral Eucharistic culture and active Sunday schools. But the world around us has changed. We are now surrounded by areas of new-build estates and a new village populated largely by un-churched residents looking for community. More generally we have an increasingly secular and consumerist culture where the preferred activities on Sundays do not include going to church. People have little knowledge of the Christian faith and therefore reject its validity. We recognise that we have to change: We need, with the help of our Vicar, to learn more about our faith and to increase our commitment to Jesus Christ and knowing Him as Lord and Master, so that we can take the Gospel out both into our traditional areas and into the new-build estates. We must develop an enthusiasm about our faith; otherwise nobody will listen to us.

  • 'The Sentimental Exile', Produced for the Basileon. Fitzwilliam Museum. MS
    Fair copy of fragments from Rupert Brooke’s poem 'The Sentimental Exile’, produced for the Basileon. Fitzwilliam Museum. MS/1/1917 ‘Basileon Fragments from a Poem to the Entitled “The Sentimental Exile” Just now the lilac is in bloom All before my little room ; And in my flower-beds, I think, Smile the carnation and the pink ; And down the borders, well I know, The poppy and the pansy blow . Oh! there the chestnuts, summer through, Beside the river make for you A tunnel of green gloom, and sleep Deeply above ; and green and deep The stream mysterious glides beneath, Green as a dream and deep as death. Oh, damn! I know it! and I know How the May fields all golden show, And, when the day is young and sweet, Gild gloriously the bare feet That run to bathe . Du-lieber Gott! Here am I sweating, sick, and hot, And there the shadowed waters fresh Lean up to embrace the naked flesh. Temperamentvoll German Jews Drink beer around ; - and there the dews Are soft beneath a morn of gold. Here tup tulips bloom as they are told ; Unkempt about those hedges blows An unoffici English unofficial rose; And there the unregulated sun Slopes down to rest when day is done, And wakes a vague unpunctual star, A slippered Hesper ; and there are Meads towards Hazslingfield and Coton, That are not polizei verboten !. ειθε γενοιμην . would I were In Grantchester, in Grantchester ! - Some, it maybe can get in touch 2 With Nature there, or Earth, or such. And clever modern mean have seen A Faun a-peeping through the green, And felt the Classics were not dead, To glimpse a Naiad’s reedy head, Or hear the Goat-foot piping low : .

On 26 July 1985 we wrote to Bedfordshire County Council announcing our intention to undertake a review of the County under section 48{1) of the Local Government Act 1972. Copies of the letter were sent to the principal local authorities, and parishes, in Bedfordshire and in the surrounding counties of Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and Northamptonshire; to the National and County Associations of Local Councils; to the Members of Parliament with constituency interests and to the headquarters of the main political parties. In addition, copies were sent to those government departments, regional health authorities, water authorities, and electricity and gas boards which might have an interest, as well as to British Telecom, the English Tourist Board, the local government press and to local television and radio stations serving the area. 2. The County Councils were requested, in co-operation as necessary with the other local authorities, to assist us in publicising the start of the review by inserting a notice for two successive weeks in local newspapers so as to give a wide coverage in the areas concerned.

  • The Cam from Grantchester to Cambridge a Much Loved River in Need of Our Care
    The Cam from Grantchester to Cambridge A much loved river in need of our care. Grantchester Meadows- Autumn 2019.. Michael Goodhart April 2021 Page 1 of 25 Introduction This document was prompted by the dismay over the damage caused by the crowds who sought refuge and recreation along the banks of the river Cam and in the river during the Pandemic of 2020- 2021. While most respected the river and its ecology, sadly, there were a small but significant minority who indulged in reckless, antisocial and damaging behaviour, showing little or no regard for this precious and beautiful stretch of water. This document explains the context and importance of the river. It illustrates the entire 2.8 miles length of the “upper river”, from Byrons Pool to Kings Mill Weir in Cambridge, and may provide a better understanding of the river’s rich history and precious ecology. It is hoped that it may motivate more people to want to protect it from damage, now and in the future. This is the first of the documents that has been prepared as part of Cam Valley Forum’s “Cam Safer Swim Initiative” (CSSI) If you wish to comment on this, please email [email protected]. You can see more information on Cam Valley Forum on our website here. https://camvalleyforum.uk/ Do join us.

  • Social Changes at Hertford Cricket Club
    Social changes at Hertford Cricket Club All clubs are the product of their members, past and present. Hertford Cricket Club is no exception. But who were the members? What did they do for a job? Where did they live? This note tries to shed light on these aspects of the club's history and also show how the composition of the club has changed over the years. Hertford's history is bound up with the history of the game in general. The origins of cricket are obscure. There is a report of something akin to cricket being played at Guildford in the middle of the 16th century on land also used for bear baiting. The game steadily evolved over the next century. By the 18th century it is certain that games were being played regularly between the famous public schools and also between colleges at Oxford and Cambridge albeit in a fairly casual manner. The modern game developed between 1770 and 1780 notably in the southern counties of Hampshire, Kent and Surrey. The village of Hambledon in Hampshire was 'the nursery of the best players and the down of Broad Halfpenny the area of their glory'. At this time much of the support for the game came from the landed gentry either by providing grounds to play on or by supporting teams. Two reasons for this seem to have been (a) it was fashionable to support a cricket team in the same manner that it had been fashionable to build a large house, develop extensive gardens or import exotic foreign plants and (b) there were endless possibilities for gambling on the outcome of the game.
