BRADFIELD AT WAR

MEMORIES OF MRS ENA GARNETT By Bradfield Newsletter‘s Roving Reporter

I would imagine that the military occupied the village hall for about

5 years all told. They were guarding the dams basically. They fixed

pylons either side of the dams with strings hanging down with

weights. They used to practice the bouncing bomb, mainly on

Ladybower, but they also did some practising on Dam Flask. And I

remember sitting in the grass with my friend watching the aeroplanes

coming down the valley from Derwent.

In 1944 I would be 10 so went to Bradfield Village School. I believe

that the reason I am claustrophobic now is because I had to wear a gas

mask and always said that mine didn‘t fit as I could put my finger

under it. The gas van came round and we had to go in it to see if the

mask worked. I was absolutely terrified because mine was leaking.

And to me that gas van was a nightmare.

We had a cellar with a stone slab, and my mother had a *pancheon

that she made bread in, this was full of water and she would sit under

the stone slab when the sirens went. I was terrified of being closed in

down there and insisted on staying in the room. There was a tin plate

in front of the fire that rattled every time a bomb dropped, but I

wouldn‘t go into the cellar.

More of Ena‘s memories to come …

If you have any memories of old

Bradfield, or know of anyone willing to share their memories, please contact

Evelyn on: 234 3385 or e-mail: [email protected].

*Pancheon: a large earthenware bowl, white glazed on the inside.

Answer to the unusual paragraph on page 32 : The letter ‗e‘ which is

the most common letter used in the English language, does not appear even once in

the paragraph.

BRADFIELD By Keith Willmott

Spring is back, another year,

It really has flown by

But I’m glad that I’m still here.

To hear the curlews cry

Daffodils wave on a gentle breeze,

By the bridge o’er a babbling

brook.

Blossom flowering on the trees,

Have a walk and take a look.

Farmers markets, craft fairs all,

Bowls, tennis and village cricket,

Films to watch in the village hall,

Don’t forget to buy a ticket.

Hard work goes in to keep it well,

So thanks to all who volunteer.

There goes the sound of the old

church bell.

The Taxi Driver

A passenger in a taxi tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him

something. The driver screamed, lost control of the cab, nearly hit a

bus, drove up over the curb and stopped just inches from a large plate

glass window.

For a few moments, everything was silent in the cab and then the

driver said, ―Please don‘t ever do that again. You scared the living

daylights out of me!‖

The passenger, who was also frightened, apologized and said he didn‘t

realise that a tap on the shoulder could frighten him so much. The

driver replied, ―I‘m sorry. It‘s really not your fault at all. Today is my

first day driving a cab. For the last 25 years, I‘ve been driving a

hearse.‖

A Real Story

Reply from BAA, the world‘s leading airport company.

As I wanted to check the safe departure of my daughter who was

flying to New York for a few days I logged onto LHR Airport and

checked the Live Flight Information mid morning only to find the

Live Status Column completely blank.

Somewhat disappointed at this lack of information, I e-mailed BAA to

complain.

I received the following e-mail in reply !

From website [email protected]

Thank you for your enquiry. So sorry you were unable to obtain the

information. On this occasion I‘m afraid we were experiencing

technical problems.

Sorry for the incontinence.

PARAPROSDOKIAN SENTENCES ‗Paraprosdokian‘ is a figure of speech in which the

latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected in a way that

causes the reader or listener to reframe or reinterpret the first part. It is

frequently used for humorous or dramatic effect, sometimes producing an anticlimax, for example …

We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public. War does not determine who is right—only who is left.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit: Wisdom is not putting it in a

fruit salad. The early bird might get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Evening news is where they begin with ‗Good evening‘, and then proceed

to tell you why it isn‘t.

To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research.

A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops.

On my desk, I have a work station. How is it that one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a

whole box to start a campfire?

I didn‘t say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you. Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars,

but check when you say the paint is wet?

The voices in my head may not be real, but they have some good ideas!

To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

CHUCKLE CORNER

This is an unusual paragraph. I‘m curious as to just how quickly

you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so ordinary and plain that you would think nothing was wrong with it. In

fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is highly unusual though. Study

it and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But

if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without

any coaching! (Answer at bottom of page 35.)

BRADFIELD DVD We now have a DVD around Bradfield available at £3 per copy

and it is the original vine film taken by George Gaisford of Ughill Hall in 1963. It was transferred to video around 20 years ago and

due to requests for copies we have transferred now it to a DVD.

Copies can be obtained from myself.

BRADFIELD PARISH ARCHIVES/FAMILY HISTORY CENTRE

We will also be taking part in the local parish shows and galas which

normally run throughout June and July.

The majority of our old archives are now available to research on-line and

can be viewed at www.bradfieldarchives/co.uk.

We are now well under way with cataloguing/indexing these documents

which should now make researching family names and locations easier

when reading the documents.

Anyone wishing to help with this project should contact me at the

Parish Offices.

We are still open every Thursday between 9 a.m. and 4.30 p.m. for

anyone to research family/local/social history.

FAMILY/LOCAL HISTORY DAY We are once again staging this popular event—

it will take place on Sunday 21st October in

Low Bradfield village hall from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

and admission will be free of charge and refreshments will also be available.

There will be around 12 organisations taking part in this year‘s event.

ENGLISH HERITAGE OPEN DAYS We will again be taking part in English Heritage Open Days National

Events—we have arranged for a guided/historical walk around Ughill on

Saturday September 8th starting from the Water Monument on Hoarstones

Road at 1 a.m. and finishing around 12.30 p.m.—anyone wishing to join in this walk must book prior to the date.

PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 26 MARCH 2012 Countryside campaigners cheer Peak District plans for action on off-roading Plans published on Friday to save Peak District green lanes from off-roading damage are being welcomed by local campaigners. The Peak District National Park Authority has committed to work on 27 routes in the National Park, including making repairs on some and consulting on road closures on others. “This is great news! We’ve been campaigning for the National Park Authority to get on with protecting our most sensitive and damaged lanes, so it’s really heartening that it has listened to local people’s concerns and is putting its money where its mouth is,” said John King, planning officer with Friends of the Peak District1. In particular, the action plan identifies five lanes where it will consult with the public about what it calls “vehicle regulation”:

Long Causeway at Stanage Edge

Cherpit Lane at Great Longstone

The Roych near Chapel-en-le-Frith

Brough Lane above Bamford

Brushfield, near Monsal Head

“Long Causeway and the Roych are the current top two lanes we’ve been lobbying to save as part of our Take Back the Tracks campaign. Work on these is really urgent because the damage is so t e r r i b l e , a n d t h e l a n d s c a p e s h e r e a r e particularly environmentally sensitive,” said John King. However, the action plan does not specify what kind of vehicle regulation the National Park Authority will be consulting on. “The National Park Authority may suggest a number of options including seasonal restrictions or just making lanes one-way. We want bold action – and the most sensitive lanes closed to all recreational vehicles for good! Our precious green lanes need saving properly, and permanently,” added John King. “This is by no means a done deal. If you care about your country-side, please look out for the consultations and have your say.” The consultations are due to start this summer.

And after the show, everything has to be packed up and

moved on. Thank you Steve for a very good night.

On a solo UK tour which started

in January, Steve Knightley

paused in Bradfield on Friday

27th April 2012. And a full house

was royally entertained.

As the song writing force behind

―Show of Hands‖, he is best

known for his work alongside Phil

Beer (who visited us last year).

Together they are widely

acclaimed as the finest acoustic

roots duo in England.

Steve‘s easy mixture of anecdotes, inspiring music and

instrumental versatility enchanted everyone.

We look forward to the day the two of them visit

Bradfield as ―Show of Hands‖ … watch this space!

YORKSHIRE IN BLOOM

JUDGES REPORT SPRING 2012

Category 1A

Bradfield in Bloom

Introduction

The wonderful setting of the villages was enhanced on the day of our

visit by wonderful weather. Situated on the edge of the peak district it

attracts large numbers of visitors. This brings with it issues such as

parking and litter, the group do well to keep the area litter free as this will

be a constant challenge.

Innovation would seem to be the factor that drives the group, fund

raising by catering at the farmers market rewards the hard work with an

income. The whole village seems to undertake challenges be it the

bowlers building a new pavilion or the bloom group clearing the stream

and planting an orchard.

Section A: Horticultural Achievement

Areas of Achievement

The setting and care given to the cricket field and bowls area provide a

pleasant heart to the lower village. This is enhanced by the planting often

on difficult sites of spring flowers including daffodils.

The idea to recycle spring bedding plants for future use; and to purchase

them from a nursery being established to help disabled in to work.

The church yard and the maintenance team of sheep have mown this

large and difficult area.

Areas for improvement

Consider carefully the replacement planting for the triangle in High

Bradfield, as it is in a busy area careful thought will need to be given as

to the replacement plan and plant selection.

The Parish Council garden was due for a spring tidy up to set the area up

for summer. Monitor the bed at the top of the wall by the village hall, this

will always be a challenge but recent improvements should help with

plant establishment.

Thank You!!!

Hannah and Harry Warwick

(Aged 14 and 11)

For further details please contact Joanna Warwick (Mum)– 07912 884179

We also need shoeboxes to put the items in, so if you have any spare

please can you donate them?

We hope you can help to collect the items above to help soldiers that are

constantly helping us by fighting for our country.

24 17

The summer Judging Day will

be on Tuesday 17th July 2012

Section B: Environmental Responsibility


Cleaning the stream and banking to allow a wider range of plants to

grow in a natural setting. The high level of achievement from the

activities the group undertakes. Things are well planned and a range of

projects are proposed to keep developing the area. New signs around

the village provide information and add interest for visitors. The Parish

Council assistance with mowing the orchard. The fund raising activities

of the group.

Areas for Improvement

Bradfield is an excellent example of community involvement be it in

bloom or other groups. However the group sees the need to gain new

members if possible. It may be possible to try to do this on the orchard

day when a large number of people will be around. Some sort of contact

point or way of getting contact details could be considered.

Section C: Community Participation


To keep the area litter free with such a high number of visitors is hard

work, but very effective. The orchard and the development of bee hives

and the planting of the edible hedge by children. Consider perennial

planting when re–developing areas to reduce work load and cost.

Areas for Improvement

As the orchard becomes more established information boards or guides

could be considered both for the orchard and possibly as a guide to other

plants and trees in the area. A little like wild life boards but for plants.
