In last month’s Hadley Wood News I wroteabout our application for funding fromEnfieldCouncil towards the refurbishment ofthe car park at The Hadley WoodAssociation Centre. As you know the carpark is used predominantly by parentstaking their children to and from thePlayschool at the Association Centre and tothe Primary school. It is also used by dogwalkers and others enjoying the variousfacilities such as tennis at the Centre.I amextremely sorry to tell you that despite

the many messages of support from you(which were much appreciated) we wereunsuccessful,The Association is now faced with a

serious problem in that for the car park toremain open,we need to seek an alternativesource of funding. TheAssociation is unableto meet the whole cost of the refurbishmentof the car park and the roadway to the carpark, in total some £36,000.Those of you who have attended the

HWA Annual General Meetings over thepast several years will recollect thatdiscussion has takenplace each year on thefuture of the Parkway Fund. This Fund wasset up in the late nineteen eighties to fightmoves to develop a large car parking facilityand train station to the north of WaggonRoad. Each year the decision has been toretain the fund. There have, however, beenno further development proposals on thissubject since, though nobody can say withabsolute certainty that it will never happen atsome time in the future. We do, however,feel it is unlikely. The Fund in real terms isdepreciating year by year.The fundswere raised under two separate

Appeal letters, which significantly had slightlydifferent terms, in that the second letter

stated that in the event these fundswere notused for the specific purpose of fighting thedevelopment, they would revert to theAssociation. The first Appeal letter did notspecify the same terms.The Directors of the Association are now

considering the option that the ParkwayFund, currently worth approximately£35,000, be transferred to the Associationfor the specific use of the Car Parkrefurbishment. They are keen to receive asmuch feedback as possible.Before any final decision is taken on this

matter, we would welcome any views fromboth the original donors to the Fundandanyresidents who wish to express their opinion.Please send any comments by letter or e-mail to theHadleyWoodAssociationCentre.1-7Crescent East, HadleyWoodEN4OEL.Telephone no. 0208 449 7193 email

Graham Sharp. Chairman, Hadley WoodAssociation.

A Hadley WoodChildhood:Judy Rennie (nee Lock)I was born in Hadley Wood at TheChimes, No 33 Crescent West.My first memory is of the siren going off

opposite our house. Fearful of the bombswe left Hadley Wood for three years butreturned in 1942 and rented 10 CrescentWest (now number 46) from my greatuncle, Leslie Lock, who owned theadjoining houses. He and his wife, Jessie,lived at No. 5. Nancy and Dorothy Clarkelived next door to us at 9 Crescent West(now 44) and No 8 (now 34) was thehouse now situated next to the new shops(built 1964). No.34 was a Red Cross Postin the first World War. Much later, LordHavers (Lord Chancellor) and LadyHavers moved into No. 7 with their twosons, Philip and Nigel (the actor). In 1948Sir Derek (cousin of Dudley, First SeaLord) and Lady Pound moved into

Crescent West. The shops ca.1950.

was the teacher. Every Sunday afternoonI had to go to tea with my Auntie Buff andUncle Sam (Bram and Bertha Kerr originalmembers of the Golf Club) who lived onthe Cockfosters Road (now Five OaksNursing Home). I found this a great trialbecause of the long walk home butenjoyed their wonderful garden with itsgate leading on to the 6th hole of the golfcourse. 39 and 37 Camlet Way wereoriginally one house with a large gardenowned bymy great aunt and uncle Wilfredand Mabel Lock. She was another greataunt I had to visit regularly. She had a JackRussell which bit me just missing the eye.I still have the scar.The nearest swimming pool was the

Water Splash at London Colney. I can stillrecall the long walk into Barnet, catchingthe 84 bus and then spending all day atthe pool before the dreaded journeyhome.In 1946 my brother Peter took up golf

and joined the Golf Club. I continued toplay tennis. Apart from the club, I playedon the Edells’ court (the present vicarage).Corbar, (the Davies family) and at Ardoch(the Coubrough family) which backed onto the old 6th tee. I remember theexcitement when we heard their son,Ronnie, was coming home after being aJapanese prisoner of war. The RossCollins family hadmoved to Camlet Housewhich had a grass court. Bruce andMargaret Williamson had a hard courtwhich backed on to the practice course.During the war, Bruce, a consultantphysician had possibly saved my life by

Crescent West (possibly number 39).Aged 6, I used to cycle to Kingsdown

School in Arkley. On Wednesdays, I hadto go to Bennetts, the fishmonger, on thecorner of Union Street to collect the fish onmy way home. If ever I forgot, my mothersent me back to get it. Eventually StellaRoss Collins said she had room for me inher car along with other children going toKingsdown. From then on I stood outsideChip Chase (now Camlet Corner) waitingfor the car on the strict instructions that Inever spoke to strangers. When thedoodlebugs (Germany’s V1 rockets)began Stella arranged to have agoverness and many of us children wentto her home, Trewithen, 28 Beech Hill tohave our lessons. Some families thendecided to try the new school, Stormont, inPotters Bar and I started there in 1944. Inow had to cycle to Green’s garage atHadley Highstone where they allowed meto leave my bike and take the bus toschool.My most vivid memory of the war was

when the coalman and his lad weredelivering to our home in Crescent West.We all watched a doodlebug flyingoverhead. Its engine suddenly stopped.Mummy rushedmy brother andme inside,pushed us under the dining room table,where we always slept, and lay on top ofus. The doodlebug dropped in LancasterAvenue.My father was in the HomeGuard which

used tomeet in the old squash court at theGolf Club in the evenings. His job was toguard the golf course and the railwaytunnel but from hearsay it seemed toinvolve many games of poker.We were never short of food. Bread and

dripping was a favourite at tea time. Myuncle, Douglas Lock, was a farmer inGoffs Oak and occasionally brought useggs and a chicken. My mother used topickle the eggs and kept them in a bucketin the outside cloakroom. Rabbit wasanother favourite but I do remember herbemoaning the fact of only one onion a

week. Although in small amounts, therationing gave usmeat, cheese and butter.Fish was never rationed.After the war, my brother and I had an

idyllic childhood. We both played tennisand joined the Hadley Wood Lawn tennisclub which had four grass courts. Thecircular pavilion had a thatched roof andthe ladies did tennis club teas everyweekend in the summer. My brother Peterhad begun cricket at Heath Mount Schoolin Watton –on -Stone and used to bowl atme day after day in our small garden.Luckily Dorothy and Nancy Clarke nextdoor allowed us to go and collect the ballwhenever it went over their fence. Weloved to build dams in the stream the otherside of Bartrams Lane and to take downthe numbers of the trains – especially theFlying Scotsman. When visitors came tostay they complained about the noise ofthe trains at night but we never heardthem. We also played in the half builthouse in Lancaster Avenue. Peter and Iused to walk into Barnet to the little villageshop where we bought Cadbury’schocolate drinking powder, which we usedto consume on the way home. The shopsin Hadley Wood (now replaced by the twoblocks of flats) were the Grocer/Post Officeowned by Arthur Collins and next door thedraper, run by Miss Frusher. We used tospend our sweet ration at Miss Frusher’s.Sunday school was in Camlet Way

diagnosing septicaemia and prescribingthe new drug, penicillin.In 1947 I went away to boarding school,

St. Felix in Southwold, but the holidayswere filled with tennis. I entered all thetournaments, played at Junior Wimbledonand went to Queens for coaching. Athome the talk was always golf but I heldout against it for as long as I could until Iwas finally persuaded to try it. To my greatsurprise I loved it straightaway and joinedthe Golf Club in 1952.In the same year Sir Gilbert and Lady

Rennie moved into 7 Beech Hill and Imarried their son Neil. Sir Gilbert was awonderful man. The son of a villageblacksmith in Scotland he won a Militarycross in the First World War and becameGovernor General of Rhodesia andNyasaland. Neil and I spent the next tenyears working in Africa and eventuallyreturned to live locally.Judy Rennie

Gardening Tips forMarchGardeners will argue for ever about thebest way to plant borders but where doyou start? The first thing to do before youget carried away with artistic fervour is toprovide the plants with the soil andconditions they need to grow well. It is agood idea to see what other plants peoplegrow in your area especially when you aredeciding what is hardy enough and whatwill thrive on local soil. Check plantsheights and spreads. Self colouredborders are easy though you do notnecessarily have to stick to one colour. Ifyou decide on white for example, you canincorporate pale creams, greens, paleblue and pale pink. If your garden is small,the best treatment is to emulate the oldcottagers of the past and put everythingtogether in a glorious jumble. If time isshort, you can plant your borders using a

wide variety of dwarf conifers and bulbs.Rhododendrons and Camellias are onlysuited by an acid soil.Co-ordinate colours from one side of the

spectrum together ie pinks of alstromeriaand poppies blend with penstemon anddianthus. Above all have a go andremember if you feel you have made amistake, you can move them around laterin the season.darrensmithgardens@ yahoo.co.uk

Aerial adventuresThe attractively named French firm ‘GoApe’ is currently setting up an aerialadventure network in the tops of somehigh trees in Church Wood, Trent Park.Although plans met with the approval ofthe Friends of Trent Park they have notpleased everyone and a breakawaygroup, the Real Friends of Trent Park areangry and unhappy about it.They feel it will attract hundreds more

people to the Park, overwhelm facilitiessuch as parking and generally interferewith the rustic flavour of the area. Where isit and what’s it like? You just walk from thecar park in the general direction ofCockfosters, past the toilets, across theroad leading to themansion and follow thepath that curves away to your left. There,high in the trees on your right, you can seethe rigging in progress. Ladders,platforms, netting and ropeways. It looksalright to me and the kids will absolutely

love it. Once the tree canopy develops itwill be well hidden with only the screams ofpeople clinging onto ropes to break thewoodland silence. Apparently it will opensometime in late March and you will haveto a) book b) receive instruction c) pay andd) be over 10 years and above a certainheight to follow the route. Sounds as ifchildren will have to be accompanied byparents.Personally I might give this one a miss.

Women’s InstituteThe Hadley Wood W.I, Ladies enjoyed amost remarkable evening thanks to thearrangements made by Gloria Neal. Afteran excellent High Tea at the nearby Hilton,we went to the Purcell School of Music fora wonderful concert given by the seniorpupils whose ages ranged from 15 to19 yrs. The pupils came from Turkey,Singapore, Korea, Taiwan and, of course,the UK. Each one gave a recital on thepiano, violin, tuba, double bass andmarimba. They were so young, dedicatedand hard working that it gave everyone inthe hall renewed faith in the future of theyoung. They are not all yobs and rioters!The Purcell School is the oldest school

Hospice expandsspecialist care andappoints new managerin Enfield

North London Hospice has appointed anew manager for its day services as thecharity expands its specialist care thisspring with a new state-of-the-art buildingin Enfield.To complement its established services

in Barnet, the hospice – which celebratesits 25th anniversary this year – will open itspurpose-built day services at WinchmoreHill this May.New manager Anneli Beesley says it’s

an exciting time for everyone involvedwith North London Hospice’s latestdevelopment.“We can’t wait to get started,” said

Anneli, who brings experience of

one this year.Should we free relatives from the burden

of prosecution and allow terminally illpatients the choice of assisted death?Should we be concerned at the exampleoverseas where legalising assisted suicidehas lead to a huge increase in suchdeaths? Can adequate safeguards bewritten in to new laws to protect thevulnerable? Is legalising assisted suicidea step on the slippery slope to legalisingeuthanasia? It is an issue which cutsacross party and ethical lines. I recognisethat caring for the terminally ill is adesperately difficult, complex andpersonal situation and any debate needscare and sensitivity and I would welcomehearing from those with direct experience.My view is that there is not a need tochange the law on assisted suicide. Theprosecution guidelines published lastFebruary has given a compassionate viewto judgments upon agonising decisionstaken by relatives of terminally ill patients.60 cases referred to the Director of PublicProsecutions have not led to prosecution.But it is right that the law makes clear thatsociety respects life, with all its difficulties,and suicide is not to be encouraged orassisted.

coveted prize it would be. What numberof interested speculators will be vying ineager anticipation for the opportunity toexploit what they will regard, quiteerroneously in my view,as a 'brown fieldsite'. A de facto 'brown field site' it maywell be but it is still designated assacrosanct Green Belt land and assuch for any Planning application togain approval there would need to beexceptional circumstances for anyresidential or similar development.It cannot be emphasised enough,

however, that LBE will almost certainlyadopt an obdurate stance on this and itis now incumbent on the citizenry ofEnfield and Barnet to make known itsvehement disapproval of the continuedmisappropriation of the park'sepicentre. We should have nocompunction about criticising LBE forshameful dereliction of its responsibilitytowards the many thousands whoderive so much enjoyment andpleasure from TCP, and which would beconsiderably enhanced were it toinclude full and free access to the 400acres which has been denied themthese past 60 years. Moreover, think ofthe enormous benefit to park users whocould use the spacious car parkingfacilities on the campus site. At a strokeit would solve the existing horrendousproblems associated with inadequatespace. It is hoped that all who areconcerned about protecting andimproving upon their splendid heritageof TCP will not sit idly by.London's Mayor, Enfield and Barnet

Education in 1947 for a Teacher TrainingCollege which then, in 1951, morphedinto the Middlesex Polytechnic. Thenagain, in 1993 the MoE Assets Boardacquired title to the site from LBE forMiddlesex University [MU]. It was a'gratis' acquisition which lamentably,perpetuated this separate area,unavailable to the general public, in thecentre of the park. This invidious 'statusquo' has been tolerated for 60 years andwill remain so unless and until it isreclaimed and incorporated with the restof the park. This would ensure that anyfuture threat to its integrity and fullenjoyment by the public is notcompromised without its (the public’s)acquiescence, be it for educationalpurpose, housing development orwhatever.LBE has a discretionary prerogative it

can exercise to recover ownership of thecampus site without waiting for it tobe vacated. It can then promote the useof it for purposes and in a mannercompatible with the ethos and objectivesof a country park, namely, peace andtranquillity without intrusive or pollutingactivity or construction.It would be folly to demur any longer

over this matter. To patiently wait for themandarins in Enfield Civic Centre shufflingtheir feet and wrestling with theirconsciences debating whether to reviewtheir mandate on behalf of allwho treasure the arcadian pleasures ofTrent Park is too great a gamble.It is common knowledge that MU will

move out within a short time. Alreadydisturbing rumours abound suggestingsome kind of grandiose housingdevelopment which, of course, isundoubtedly an option much favoured byMU's successors to the site; and what a
