With District and Parish Councils only having met on a couple of occasions since the Mayelections, very little has happened in the world of local government. But here are a couplenotes on the matters that people regularly ask me about and which you yourself might findof interest.
Update on new children’s play area
In the last edition of the Elton Echo, I wrote about how I was looking at the possibility ofinstalling a new children’s play area on the Jubilee Filed. Since then, I have met with a smallnumber of suppliers and very soon I will have final plans and quotes for potential designs.These will reviewed by the Parish Council and the Jubilee Field Committee - as well asyoung people in the village – to decide which one to pursue. We will be looking at value formoney, overall cost and best design.
As well as getting plans and quotes, I have also begun to look at sources of funding. I amalready in discussion with a handful of local businesses and the Lottery Fund who have saidthat they would be interested in supporting such a project but would like to see more detailas things progress. The main thing that potential backers want to see is a desire amongstthe community to get the new facility. So, here are a few things you can do to help…
1. Donate to our crowdfunding webpage. You do not have to donate a lot. Just a few poundsis enough. It is not about the amount each person donates, but the number of peoplesupporting the project. Should the project not come to fruition, all money will be refunded.To donate, please visit https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/eltonjubileefield
2. Donate cash. As above, but not doing it online. Receipts will be given, and moneyrefunded if the project is not completed.
3. Fundraise. If you have an event or a group where you can fundraise, it would beappreciated.
4. Suggest local businesses which might offer donations. Perhaps you work for or know alocal company that might be interesting in supporting our scheme? If so, put them in touchwith me, tell me who to contact or speak to them yourselves to gain interest.

4 Village News and ViewsNew beginnings
I’ve been at my post as Team Vicar since February but this has been myfirst opportunity to write in The Elton Echo. When I originally took thejob I was so pleased to learn that Elton was part of the Team, as I haveoften walked through it with my husband on sunny days off and I loveit here. Now I have an excuse to visit all the time!
The last few months have been a real discovery! So far, I’ve seen Eltonin Winter, through Easter and into a somewhat wet summer. I have
met more people than I can possibly retain the names of but who generously, and repeatedly, give of their time toshare their stories with me or who simply point me in the right direction to the next church (not always verysuccessfully!) I’ve also sampled more cake than is good for my hips and managed to attend a few Tea and ToastThursday sessions and the Summer BBQ (I’m starting to sense a bit of a food theme developing at Elton…) And who canforget the Toilet Blessing service, which included, amongst other activities: pinning the flush on the toilet, a verycompetitive “the big squat”, (the winner managed 38 in 30 seconds!)
Unfortunately, it hasn’t all just been fun and tea and cake. In the short time I’ve been here, Elton has suffered the lossof Jessie Buxton and of Cath Dawe. It was my privilege to be involved in the funeral of both.
I sense that at Elton the church is at a cross-roads, poised for new opportunities and new beginnings. I happen to likenew beginnings, but I’m also aware that beginnings can be a double-edged sword: both full of opportunity and also thedread of change and the uncertainty of what this new adventure might turn out like. Anyone who has ever embarkedon a new beginning, be it a project or a relationship or job has, at some point, felt fear or apprehension. That’s normal.However, sometimes the fear is so strong that it stops us attempting new things all together, which is a shame becauseas human beings we’re not meant to be afraid. I once knew a vicar who always went on about how the Bible shouldhave a large strapline on the cover, it should read: Holy Bible – DO NOT BE AFRAID!, and he was right. This isn’t amessage just for Christians or other people of faith. I believe this is God’s message to the whole of his creation (and notjust humans).
I believe that God is with us and loves us through life (whether we know it or not) and if he calls us to something newhe will guide us and equip us for the new challenges in our lives. There are many examples in the Bible of people beingcalled to do things that were completely revolutionary in their day. Invariably they were all afraid and openly said soto God – the general gist is usually: “Don’t ask me please, I can’t do that”. The reasons why not are usually understand-able ones: “I’m too young”; “I’m too old”; “I’ve got a physical impediment”; “I’m not clever enough”; “I’m not holyenough” and so on. But to everyone that God calls he also has a general answer, which is beautifully summarised inIsaiah (41:10), he put it like this: [God says] do not fear, for I am with you, do not be afraid, for I am your God; I willstrengthen you, I will help you.
So let those words be an encouragement to you or your loved ones, whatever new endeavours you may be attemptingthis September (even if it is just training the new vicar!) and remember you’re not alone!

A Great Show in Winster 18 October
Friday 18 October 8pm in the Burton Institute, Winster
Reg Meuross in Concert
Some of you will remember our show in March 2008 when Reg performed country musicin the Burton Institute with Hank Wangford. Now he is touring solo, performing hisown songs.
Mark Radcliffe introduced Reg on BBC Radio 2 Folk Show as a “brilliant singer-songwriter and true troubadour with a social conscience”. But it’s not all protest by anymeans. He writes and sings story-songs which bring characters from history to life,and also some of the most heart-aching love songs, performed with depth andspellbinding delivery. He has that rare gift of being able to touch people through hissongs and performance, his words and music painting pictures that remain with thelistener long after the song has been sung, accompanying himself masterfully on guitar,banjo or dulcimer and captivating audiences with his beautiful tenor voice.
Reg enjoys the greatest respect from fellow professionals. Martin Carthy describedhim as 'a mighty songwriter and an equally fine singer' and described hisperformances as 'classic, with echoes of early Dylan, Tom Paxton and Leonard Cohen.'He is currently Folking.com soloist of the year.
The show is in The Burton Institute, Winster DE4 2DQ on Friday 18 October at 8pm(bar opens 7.15). Tickets are £10 from Winster Post Office or 01629 650090 [email protected].

Flail and verge mowing
This summer I have had a lot of complaints about the state of the verges along theroadsides and overgrowth of grass at junctions. This has caused visibility to be poor andless space for vehicles on single track country lanes. The District Council has not providedan adequate flail mowing service this year and apologise on their behalf. The problem stemsfrom a contractor withdrawing its work for the council right at the start of the mowing season.The council have had no time to find a new contractor and, therefore, have had to establishtheir own inhouse team to carry out all mowing across the district. This has meant led todelays and many areas going without mowing of verges and hedges for some time. Theworkforce is doing their best to catch up and reach all areas of the Derbyshire Dales. I haverepeatedly asked that our area be treated as a priority, as we have not received any cutsthroughout the entire summer. I will continue to keep an eye on this matter and press for flailmowing on our roads at the earliest opportunity.
Thanks from the Parish Council
Over the summer, a number of local residents have given up their free time to help keep ourvillage tidy and attractive. Whether it has been mowing verges, planting troughs, pulling upweeds or general tidying around, the Parish Council would like to say a big thank you.
Can I help you?
I am always here to help in any way I can. If you need help, have an issue of concern orknow of a problem that needs fixing, please contact me. My contact details are below. If Ican’t help you, I will always try to point you in the right direction.

9 Village News and ViewsFarm or Grange?
It's possible to walk from Elton to at least a dozen farms known as granges. One Ash, Calling Lowand Meadow Place Granges are located on our side of the River Lathkill. In the other directionyou could walk to Griffe, Aldwark, Ivonbrook, and Mouldridge Granges, and also RoystoneGrange if you're fit enough. All these were monastic granges, that is, farms belonging tomonasteries. The land on which the medieval buildings were erected was given to monasteriesby wealthy landowners from as early as the 12th century as a down-payment to reserve theirplace in heaven. The monasteries were situated miles away, in Leicestershire, Yorkshire,Shropshire and Bedfordshire. Only Griffe and Aldwark granges belonged to monasteries inDerbyshire (Dale Abbey and Darley Abbey respectively). No medieval buildings now exist on anyof the granges, the foundations of many being underneath more recentconstructions.
Granges were established as a source of income for the monasteries, mainly from wool. Theywere staffed by lay brothers who took vows of poverty, chastity and obedience and who woredistinguishing habits, white at One Ash, Calling Low and Ivonbrook Granges and black at MeadowPlace, Mouldridge and Aldwark. Some of the more remote granges had a small chapel attached,for instance Aldwark, Mouldridge and Meadow Place. Lay brothers did all the manual anddomestic work but unlike monks living in the monasteries, they weren't required to pray seventimes a day and weren't educated. Occasionally monks would be sent out from a monastery to agrange - it's said that monks from Dunstable Priory in Bedfordshire who had misbehaved weresent to remote Mouldridge Grange as punishment.
Monastic granges were self sufficient, growing their own food on arable land close to the farmbuildings and they were always close to a good water supply. Ivonbrook and Aldwark Grangesprobably shared the mill at Grangemill for grinding their corn. Granges offered hospitality andthese two, together with Griffe Grange, would have been welcome bed and breakfast stops fortravellers on the major north-south route known as the Portway, which passed through Grangemill.
Ivonbrook, Calling Low, One Ash and Royston Granges all belonged to Cistercian monasteries,renowned for their care and management of sheep and producers of the best quality wool. CallingLow and One Ash were reasonably close to their parent house of Roche Abbey at Maltby nearRotherham and it's possible that their flocks carried their own wool to the abbey and returned tothe Peak leaner, cleaner and cooler.
In the mid 14th century the Black Death killed so many people that monasteries were unable torecruit enough lay brothers and by the end of the 15th century most granges were being leasedto rent-paying tenants who employed local peasant labourers. Tenants kept their own flocks aswell as the abbot's. Griffe Grange, for instance, was let to Ralph Gell who had to get the abbot'ssheep to Dale Abbey at shearing time and was to pay compensation if any of the sheep died orgot lost. The Portway would take him directly to the abbey, some 25 miles to the south east.
It wasn't just sheep that provided profit to the parent monastery, there was lead ore under mostof the granges mentioned. In 1494 John Wayne of Gratton was mining lead under Meadow Placeand Darley Abbey, owner of Aldwark Grange, had 160 fothers (tons) of lead in 1538, the yearthat horrid Henry and crafty Cromwell got their hands on it. By the 1530s the Catholic Churchowned about a quarter of the land in England. Dissolution of the monasteries in that decade

meant that all the granges in our neighbourhood became the property of Henry VIII and werelater sold to families such as Babington, Cavendish, Gell and Manners.
You may be wondering why I haven't mentioned two farms just a stone's throw from Elton,Smerrill Grange and Gratton Grange. Smerrill Grange was first documented in 1481 but it isn'tknown for certain whether it belonged to a monastery. The word grange comes from an oldFrench word meaning a granary or barn. Some farms with no monastic connection but havingsubstantial outbuildings may have become known as granges, one example being StanedgeGrange near Newhaven, which was so named in the 16th century. Another is Hoe Grange nearBrassington, known from the 14th century as a farm with housing for a large flock of sheep.
Gratton Grange is a different kind of grange entirely. It was built by John Thornhill a few yearsafter he bought the manor of Gratton in 1723. As late as 1895 it was known as Gratton Farm andI can find no evidence of its change of name until 1936 when the Naylors were tenants. This kindof grange is an example of an owner simply seeking to raise the status of his property.

SPOT FOUR FAMILIAR FACES
Here’s a quiz for the more mature Echo reader. The picture reproduced above was taken in 1944 at a munitionsfactory in Matlock called Lehman, Archer & Lane. The company had moved up to Derbyshire from London to avoidthe blitz and had taken over the Paton & Baldwins wool mill off Smedley Street. Most of the men pictured here hadmoved to Derbyshire with the company but the women had been recruited locally to contribute to the war effort.
No fewer than four of the young women shown in the photograph came to live long term and raise their families inElton after their subsequent marriages. Before reading on – how many do you recognise?
Irene Andrews is fourth from the right in the middle row. She subsequently married Cliff Stone and lived with theirchildren Valerie and John in Ivy Lane. Irene’s close friend Edith Buxton, who joined Lehmans at the same time as her,is pictured fifth from the right of the front row. Edie later married Alf Evans and they lived with their children Glenysand Brian, firstly in Sheldon Cottage in the Main Street, and later in East End. Rosa Gill is on the extreme left of themiddle row. She subsequently married George Boam and they lived in Woodbine House opposite Elton School. FinallyAlice Whitworth is third from the right on the front row. She later married Eddie Glossop and they lived in East Endwith their children Alan, Jean and Christine. All the children referred to attended Elton School.
The work at Lehmans was demanding and very noisy. The women worked twelve hour shifts – alternating a week ofnights with a week of days. After the war, Paton & Baldwins resumed wool production. The company ceased tradingin 1989 and the mill was demolished to make way for housing.

Dear Residents,
We would like to take this opportunity to say a HUGE thank you to all of our generous sponsors,supporters, organizers and volunteers for their help leading up to, during and after this years' BeerFestival. Without the kindness and generosity we receive each year the event would simply not bepossible. We would also like to thank the local businesses and breweries who sponsored the festival andeither donated barrels of beers or offered us discounts and deals.
A most enjoyable day was had by all and the field was full of festival goers of all ages enjoying the sunshine.We hope those of you who attended managed to work your way through the selection of real ales, soakedit up with local produce and enjoyed the brilliant live bands. We know we did!
This year saw the launch of reusable “green” plastic glasses in an attempt to reduce the events’ impact onsingle use plastics. We are pleased to report that this was a huge success and something we will repeatand try to extend.
We are delighted to confirm that the event raised a grand total of £6,971.69! All monies raised go towardsthe completion of the new pavilion. Many thanks and hope to see you again next year on Saturday 18th
