The Moorings Barrow Haven | Barrow-Upon-Humber | DN19 7ET the Moorings The Moorings Barrow Haven | Barrow-upon-Humber | DN19 7ET The Moorings Set within its own substantial grounds, The Moorings is an immaculate contemporary home – with views to inspire, and offering an unequalled sense of peace and tranquillity. Here, one can escape the demands of a fast-paced world, in surroundings that are unspoilt, presenting a quality of life that most of us seek but seldom ever find! “We have lived happily here for the past 18 years,” comments Pete “and even after all that time, returning home is still a delight. After a business day, here we are able to completely detach from the hustle and bustle and within minutes of arriving home I can be walking along the River Humber, through the nature reserve or just relaxing in the garden with a glass of something chilled. Some days, all we can hear are just the sounds of overhead birds or the clip-clop of horses along the lane – it’s the perfect antidote.” With distant, far-reaching views over open countryside the sense of openness and freedom is incredible. Sitting under the clematis and honeysuckle-draped pergola, on a summer’s evening, one can enjoy an al fresco supper with friends with a backdrop of vast skies. “With the framework of the Humber Bridge, we enjoy some stunning sunsets here,” adds Carol. We do feel that we have found here, the very best of both worlds, because although we have such an incredible tranquillity, everything we need is within very easy reach. The nearby villages of Barton upon Humber and Barrow upon Humber are only minutes away and provide all the day today needs. We can reach the city of Hull to the north, the market town of Brigg to the south and Humberside Airport all within 20 minutes.” The Moorings sits in a unique location, and presents spacious and elegant reception rooms with an intelligent and natural flow. The versatility of the spaces allow for change of use that correspond easily with the changing needs of a family. “Life here is uncomplicated and peaceful” comments Pete” and I know that the new owners will be as happy and contented as we have been.”* Pete and Carol * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.

  • The Humber Metro
    The Humber Metro The Humber Metro is a very futuristic concept, depending, as it does, on the existence of the Humber tunnel between Goxhill and the approach to Paragon station, proposed as part of HS10 in the ‘HS Eastern Routes and Service Plans’ article. As noted there, although the tunnel will be built to GC gauge, it is intended from the outset to be shared with Regional Metro traffic between Cleethorpes and Hull, which will at least initially be of UK loading gauge. The Humber Metro covers the area from Selby and Goole in the west to Cleethorpes and Withernsea in the east, and from Grimsby in the south to Bridlington in the north. The core section, built to GC-gauge, as all new infrastructure should be, runs in tunnel under the centre of Hull between Paragon (LL) and Cannon St. (former H&B) stations, with a connection to the Hornsea / Withernsea lines just before Wilmington, and another to the Beverley line at Cottingham. Other than that (and the Humber tunnel, of course,) it takes over the routes of existing and former, long closed, branches. The proposed metro services fall into two groups, either cross-river or west-east along the north bank. The services of the first group are: 2tph Cleethorpes – New Clee – Grimsby Docks – Grimsby Town – West Marsh – Great Coates – Healing – Stallingborough – Habrough – Ulceby – Thornton Abbey – Goxhill – Hull Paragon (LL) – George St. – Cannon St. – Beverley Rd. – Jack Kaye Walk – Cottingham – Beverley – Arram – Lockington – Hutton Cranswick – Great Driffield – Nafferton – Lowthorpe – Burton Agnes – Carnaby – Bridlington 2tph Cleethorpes – New Clee – Grimsby Docks – Grimsby Town – West Marsh – Great Coates – Healing – Stallingborough – Habrough – Ulceby – Thornton Abbey – Goxhill – Hull Paragon (LL) – George St.

  • The MUGA Multi Utility Games Area Has Arrived! a Fantastic New Facility
    The MUGA Multi Utility Games Area has arrived! A fantastic new facility for the village. 2 separate areas allowing different sports to go on at the same time. Plus an all weather surface, especially good if the summer is like last years. Congratulations to the Parish Council for making it possible. he Notice Board pages, all 4 of them in this issue of the Gander, are packed with interesting information and events in and around Goxhill. They promote entertainment and activities for a wide T range of interests and many are to raise funds for worthy causes. I know everyone is very busy these days, but do try to go along to some of them, I am sure you will enjoy the experience. For example, early in April I went to see Educating Rita at the Memorial Hall, performed by Hambledon Productions, as part of their tour around Lincolnshire. I have seen it at the cinema starring Michael Caine, I have seen it on television, but it was even better in the flesh. Really well acted, brilliant entertainment. Principal: Sadly the Hall was not full, it deserved to be, but they enjoyed putting the play on here and will be returning to Miss Kirsty L. Skelton BA (Hons), LRAD, AISTD Goxhill in the Autumn with their next production. Please look out for it, it will be well worth seeing. RAD Ballet – ISTD Modern – Another notable event in the village, is the opening of the new MUGA, which should be up and running ISTD Tap – Adult Tap – Street Dancing by the time you read this.
