As I took over as senior Churchwarden in April 2019 we had been blest with our new Rector for about 7 months and it fell to me to help Canon Andrew accustom himself to our procedures and local foibles. This has proved to be both interesting and educational experience for me personally, especially as we had been challenged by Bishop Karen at Canon Andrew’s installation. We owe enormous gratitude to our Associate Priest Suzie Allen and our volunteer associate priests, who continue, often in the background to support the Rector and the churchwardens in their day to day task of keeping the parish working smoothly. At the APCM in April, De Ashton stood down as Senior Churchwarden, taking on the role of Churchwarden Emeritus, and her place was taken by Andrew Patrick. We are grateful to De for all the detailed work with Minster administrative systems, and particularly her help with Safeguarding. De always took great care in her work as churchwarden and engagement with members of the congregation. As Andrew Patrick became a full churchwarden, Bruce Jensen stepped in as Deputy Churchwarden but we still have a vacancy for a second deputy to support Bruce. My particular thanks to Bruce for all his hard work on erecting and taking down the platforms. Thanks are also due to Richard Knott our treasurer and to Beatrice Dopita who has bravely stepped into the role of PCC Secretary. The new Parish Secretary Jane, MacCaig has settled in very well and even ably manages the weekly diary meeting of Rector, Churchwardens and Verger with great aplomb. PCC members and Sub-Committees have continued to work hard for the mission of the parish and have had a busy schedule with special events, a lot going on with the fabric and some interesting fund-raising events. Our new Organist and Director of the Choirs, Colin Davey has now just completed his first year and has worked closely with Revd Heather Waldsax and Canon Andrew with regard to changes to the liturgy. Colin’s wife Heather has involved herself closely with the choir and the other choir parents as well as joining the Minster Guides. The Music Appeal committee, of which I was a member until recently, has had a busy year and after much discussion appointed a PR firm to manage the appeal launch and a special company to manage the grant funding. This led to a busy time in the New Year, but the appeal is now up and running and recently we have received a number of sizeable donations from £500-£20,000. The proposed design of the rebuilt organ is exciting and should much enhance the inside of the Minster. The petition for a faculty is currently expected to be considered at the March meeting of the DAC. If everything goes according to plan the organ will be removed in the late autumn and returned in the autumn of 2021. A digital instrument will be used in the interim. Due to Salisbury’s organ being out of commission for the past 15 months, the Minster has been pleased to host two organ events: an RSCM course for newly appointed organ scholars before they took up their new posts and a Pipe-Up event at which a number of young people (including one from our own choir) had the chance to try our instrument. At the time of writing the Conservation of the Beaufort and Courtney tombs is complete. The Lighting and Power update is progressing well and the Carillon or “Chime Barrel” is shortly to be removed. This leads me to comment about the DAC which has experienced problems and, in spite of a very positive site visit last August, is still dragging its feet over the re-ordering of the rear Nave as well as the organ. Intervention by the Archdeacon has made some progress and I now have link in the DAC office with whom I am in regular contact. Both the Music Box week organised by the Michael James Music Trust and the Monday Lunch time summer recitals proved successful, though a fault with the organ caused one recital to be postponed. The Minster has, during the last year been the venue for several special events including the Experience Easter programme and a very successful Leavers Event and Service in the summer plus a special service organised by Bishop Karen for those killed in road accidents. This means that the Minster is increasingly becoming the focus for special events in Dorset. Later this year we will host the Special VE Service for Dorset in May and a service for Nurses and Midwives in September. We are grateful to Heather Waldsax and Colin Davey for their work through the Advent and Christmas seasons with re-designing the special services in the Minster. These have provided an enhanced worship experience and many positive comments have been received. The Informal Service now takes place twice a month on 2nd and 4th Sundays. The music at this service has been enhanced by the acquisition of a Yamaha electric piano. Choral Evensong continues to have an important place in the worship at the Minster and we are encouraging visiting choirs to sing on occasions when the Minster Choir is on holiday. I know of one person who travels from Weymouth as no churches in his area do Evensong. We continued to support our chosen charities through regular giving, special events, focus weekends [for CMS, The Children’s Society and Pramacare] and the Minster Green Fair. Lunch and Chat sends donations to the Salisbury-Sudan Medical Link and the regular Sunday coffee supports MARS educational work. We have continued to support the Wimborne Food Bank. Thanks are due to the Minster Environment Group who collated the evidence for the award and continued their work with the congregation to improve awareness of environmental issues. A new boiler has been installed in Church House which apart from reducing the need to call out the contractors, should count towards the groups aim to achieve a Silver Eco award. Improvements continue to be made in our compliance with Safeguarding and Data Protection procedures, and we are grateful to Jane Davidson, De Ashton, Donna Gosney and Barry Glazier for their work in these areas. As Administrative Assistant, Donna has also improved staff training in Health and Safety. Special thanks are again due to “The Friends of Wimborne Minster” for the way in which they continue to raise awareness of the Minster by promoting social events and for providing financial assistance when the need arises. The latest of these grants being £30k for the lighting, £95k for the organ and £10k for new vestments and Altar frontal. The Minster Shop, as Wimborne Minster Ltd, continues to flourish and we are grateful for the funds that have accrued to the Minster from trading profits. Special thanks go to Donna Gosney, her husband and family members, and all the volunteers who support the Minster through the shop. Of necessity, this report can only give a snapshot of the Minster over the past year, but with the completion of the light and power work together with the conservation of the tombs we are gradually seeing some improvements. This year we are due a Quinquennial Inspection, and we trust that nothing of any great significance will raise its head. We are particularly grateful for the hard work of our Rector, Associate Priests, Retired Clergy, Organist, Parish Staff, Volunteers and members of the congregation. All have led and inspired us to live as witnesses to Christ’s love in the world. Peter Cook - Senior Churchwarden Finance Financially this has been a good year although, as the year closed, there were grey clouds threatening which must be dealt with before they cause problems. My last report said that we were going into 2019 with a balanced budget but a debt of £70,000. Thanks to a generous member of the congregation, who has made a substantial donation towards that debt, and negotiations with the diocese, who were happy to write off the rest of the debt in exchange for this early payment, we are now debt free.

  • Examine the Value of Place-Names As Evidence for the History, Landscape And, Especially, Languages of South East Dorset
    Examine the Value of Place-Names as Evidence for the History, Landscape and, Especially, Languages of South East Dorset. Gemma Ellis Overview This paper analyses 40 place-names in South East Dorset, stretching from the modern boundary of Hampshire, along the Purbeck coast, to just east of Weymouth (Fig. 1). Continuing the trend of place-names throughout England, most names have Old English (OE) origins, as the Anglo-Saxons renamed places as they immigrated to land which was largely swamp or forest.1 However, there are three names of Brittonic origin. Welsh influence is expected due to the relatively close proximity to Wales. Figure 2 shows the large amount of surviving Celtic names in Dorset. For a similar reason I have found no direct Old Norse linguistic influence because Dorset was securely in the Anglo-Saxon Kingdom of Wessex when Danelaw was enacted in the 9th century to separate Viking invaders. Despite large Roman settlements at Poole, there is little evidence of the Latin language because it was not generally spoken in rural areas.2 Although, Dorchester, to the west of my corpus, retains the chester element because a Roman road went from there to Wimborne Minster and down to Poole Harbour. On the other hand, there are many Old French (OFr) place-name elements which originate from Norman aristocratic family personal names. I will be dividing the place-names by Figure 1 Maps illustrating the position of my corpus. whether they are topographical, habitative or Place-names marked in red are derived from OE, blue personal and within each category will study the have Celtic elements, yellow have Norman family names’ linguistic origins, offering more insight names, green are modern names, and pink have Latin or into the area’s history and language change.

This gives Poole a realistic prospect of stepping up to the challenge of meeting its housing needs while also transforming the economy and revitalising the Town Centre. 1.2 However, Poole will need other areas to offer the right mix of jobs, schools, local facilities and a suitable choice of housing.
