Village Hall For the first time in its history the Village Hall is in urgent need of repair which the committee cannot afford, but which must be done in

the very near future. The roof over

the bar area and dressing rooms is

rotting away rather rapidly. We

have had a couple of small leaks in

the last year or so which have done more damage than was thought. The

whole of this portion of the roof needs replacing, this will cost in

excess of readily available funds.

The committee are in the process of

asking for grants from such sources

as the Parish Council and West

Lindsey District Council towards

this amount. Some of the cost could come from Hall funds, but we

must keep a working capital for

such expenses as gas, electricity,

water, cleaning and general main­

tenance which must go on.

The bookings for the hall have been

very good over the years for the various activities, although the

number of dances has been less over the past year, no doubt due to the

present economic climate. Our very

good friends, the regular organisat­

ions, continue to support us for

which we are grateful. We do have

a few vacancies in our booking list, so if your organisation is having a

'fund raising' why not consider us?

The Booking Secretary is Mrs. M.Green

Tel: 750487.

Since the Village Hall was built in 1971, it has been self-supporting,

and has not been a burden on the

rates of the parish.

The Village Hall can, and is, used for many and varied activities, from

pre-school playgroup to badminton, from jumble sales to exhibitions,

from Women's Institute to Ladies Club, from dances to dinners, from drama to

music hall; the list goes on and on.

The hall provides a venue for people

to meet for committees, for shows, to talk and arrange their own functions,

from outside as well as inside the

village. It provides a much needed centre piece for village life and would be severly missed if it had to

close for lack of support.

So please, support it all you can

especially where you see "Proceeds

for Hall Funds".

surround, the placing of shutters

alongside windows and the use of ren­

dering or mock stone cladding, all on

the roadside elevation to Chapel Lane.

It is also considered desirable to control the replacement or renewal of

the garden fences along the roadside and the replacement of the roof tiles

on the houses.

"Control" means that planning permiss­

ion will be required for any of the above changes and it is hoped to retain the character of this village

area.

One query on the d e s i rab i lity of

retaining the existing iron railings

resulted in advice on possible sources of g ran t aid for financial assistance towards such work.

The erection of two dwellings on B e c k s i d e , �J e t t l e h a m , w i t h a c c e s s f o r

any motor vehicles via the bed of the beck has been refused.

The Director of Highways requested refusal because the site fronts onto

a water course which is the sole

means of acces s and is considered to

be inadequate to serve additional

residential development. It was the opinion of the Cistrict Planning

Authority that the proposal , if per­

mitted, would generate vehicular activity to such a degree that it

would result in potentiall y damaging

effects on the Nettleham Beck, its

immediate surroundings and the wider environment of the Conservation area.

This refusal is again subject to any possible appeal.

International Involvement Eighteen year old Michele Acton of

Sudbrooke Lane, Nettleham, is a member

of a four man team soon to pit their

wits and skills against teams of bus­

iness executives from all over Europe and the United Kingdom, in a competi­

tion designed to develop Marketing and

Management skills.

An advert in the "Economist" sparked

off the idea and Michele, along with three school friends, decided to

apply. The first problem was how to

raise the £150 application fee with­

out which they could not proceed. The four friends got out and about in Derbyshire and eventually the money

was raised through a series of spon­

sorships. They even persuaded a local firm to give access to computors

- free of charge.

In all one hundred and fifty teams will be taking part in the competition

organised by the French Computor Soft­

ware firm STRAT X. The four friends

will be in charge of a fictitious

company marketing electronic games.

Every two weeks they will feed inform­ation into a micro-computor and later

receive from France, print-outs on

which to base their next imput.

A second project which may prove even more exciting has also come Michele's

way. She is to spend a month abroad

beginning in September examining some of the declining industries of Europe.

Michele was awarded a scholarship by the management firm of Peter Kirk

after submitting a project to a board in London on the subject of E.E.C.

Regional Policy.

Visiting Belgium and Luxembourg she

will make a study of the Coal and Steel Industries and within twelve months submit a report of her findings.

In October of this year Michele is due

to begin reading Economics, Philosophy and Politics at Oxford University.

When she obtains her degree she hopes to work in the field of Marketing and

will obviously find these exciting

projects extremely valuable.

A bright, e�thusiastlc end confident

young lady Michele now attends Repton

School in Derby, but is a former

pupil of Nettleham Junior School and

William Farr, Welton. She is not slow to appreciate the valuable part each played in the development of

her early education. It was in these schools where the seeds were sown that will hopefully bear fruit

in years to come.

The beckoning areas of Government,

Politics, Commerce or Education will all be available to Michele. Which­

ever she pursues a successful career looks assured.

Seeing Red GECKSICE PLAYGROUP VISIT THE FIRE

STATION

The morning visit began with a short

talk about the job of the fireman.

Then followed an almighty scramble as the children were allowed to

explore two available engines. For a little while the children's dreams

turned into reality as they beeped

horns, tried on helmets and pretended

to drive the engines.

It was then action stations as an­other engine came driving into the yard with the lights flashing and

sirens whirring. The children

stood spellbound as the firemen jumped from the engine, unwound the

hose and connected the water. Once again it was the children's turn, water splashed everywhere as, one

by one, they were allowed to control

the hoses, switching the gushing

water on and off.

A mock rescue then took place in a

smoke filled chamber. One of the

firemen, wearing breathing apparatus,

had to go into the chamber and hide. Inside it was like a maze made up of wire meshing, with doors leading to

different rooms.

Then five firemen went in to find the

hidden man. A big cheer went up as the fireman was carried out to safety.

An exciting morning visit was enjoyed

by all, mothers and children alike.

All in a day's work to the firemen and a reminder to us of the important work they do.

The Naturalist Is the Beck polluted or simply over­fished?

As a regular walker along Beckside, it is a question I often find myself asking as I peer into the water in the hope of catching a glimpse of a darting fish or some other form of freshwater life beneath the surface.

It should be a healthy stream, for it is generally well cared for, with very little litter evident, the bank­side vegetation flourishes and I be­lieve it has never ceased flowing in living memory - even in the hottest summers. Yet despite this outwardly clean appearance there seems to be a very restricted range of life below the surface.

Here and there, aquatic plants manage to gain a foothold and grow, and num­erous freshwater shrimps may be found under the stones on the bottom, but both these however are tolerant of fairly high levels of contamination. This is particularly true of the freshwater shrimp, a ubiquitous crustacean which is to be found in a wide range of water conditions from mountain streams and muddy ponds to brackish estuary waters.

No, I am thinking now of my formative years in Northamptonshire, when every stream and pond seemed to teem with a wealth of life; small fish - minnows, sticklebacks, millers thumbs, stone loach, gudgeon and roach; insects such as mayfly, nymphs, caddis fly larvae, water beetles, dragonflies and damsel flies; amohibians repre­sented by toads, frogs and newts; and even crayfish too were quite common.

Certain areas of Northamptonshire are rich in iron ore, and excavations over the years resulted in numerous quarries which, after the ore had been extracted, were often left to return to nature.

One particular pond I remember (it is now filled in and under a housing estate ) was situated in one of these old quarries, and was the subject of frequent visits by me and my compan­ions, despite warnings from well­meaning parents of the dangers in such places. Here we would spend many happy hours with jam jars and home­made nets, eventually returning home with our catch ( and squelchy welling-

tons ) which we then deposited into larger containers for further observ­ation. The view from the top of a bucket is however, somewhat limited, and so I determined to construct an aquarium.

I proceeded with some difficulty to remove a panel from the side of a large square metal biscuit tin, and with some aged putty and a piece of glass 'borrowed' from the tool shed I managed ( after several unsuccessful attempts ) to attain a ( nearly ) water-tight container. Some gravel and pebbles were added, and some aquatic vegetation completed the underwater scene.

Finally a selection of inhabitants were introduced, and many hours sub­sequently spent gazing into this hitherto unseen underwater world, where the colours, textures and forms of the creatures were revealed in crystal clear detail. I learned much by simply watching them go about their daily lives, and this in turn inspired me to begin reading books to further extend my knowledge and understanding of the subject.

But I digress - the question still remains about the Beck. Children can often be seen hopefully scooping with nets, and perhaps the dramatic increase of the village population in recent years with the subsequent gen­erations of keen young biologists has had its effect.

We hear much these days about agricul­tural chemicals being leached out of the surrounding soil, and since we live in an intensely agricultural county this may have changed the chem­ical analysis of the water to the detriment of all but the hardiest freshwater life, or perhaps other industrial contaminants are somehow finding their way into the Beck.

I sincerely hope that efforts to clean up our larger inland waterways will eventually be extended to the smaller, yet vitally important water courses of our countPyside, and that the Beck will once again be a sparkling ribbon of life threading its way through our village.

Walnut House

North Street

Nettleham

When people start talking about trac­ing family history, most minds immed­iately turn to the "family tree". With me, it started rather differently. When Bob Parker and Mary, his wife, both died last year, people talked about "the end of an era" - old Nettlehamites clearly remembering Bob and his father before him as the local joiner and undertaker - "gran­dad" as Churchwarden for fifty years, and both as local characters.

We knew that Walnut House, where Bob and his wife had lived all their married life, had been in the Parker family before that - "Snowi'Jubb remembers that "Grandma Parker" (Bob's grandmother) lived there at the turn of the century. We had also been told that Walnut House is a seventeenth century cottage, and these two facts led us to wonder just how long it had been in the Parker family; and that's how my research began - and it turned up a lot of interesting side-lines on the way.

We all of us know from the deeds of our own houses that the Lord Bishop of Lincoln owns all mineral rights on the land on which they are built. (Twenty-five years ago when we bought our bungalow, we laughed at the idea of the Bishop digging coal beneath our garden, little dreaming that so soon afterwards they would be pump­ing "black gold" from under our soil). These mineral rights are the result of the fact that Nettleham is part of the Bishop's Manor and, until 1925, all the land here was held, not by title deeds, but by copy of the Court of the Manor of Nettleham. I therefore spent a number of inter­esting hours in the Lincolnshire Archives Office, studying Manorial records which contain details of the "Surrenders" and "Admissions" by which copyhold property was trans­ferred fr�m one party to another, and also the proving of wills which affected any of the property.

Studying these records was a pleasure in itself - the beautiful handwriting of successive clerks; the quaint turns of phrase used and the insight into how the affairs of our fore­fathers were conducted in a bye-gone age. Also, little snippets about the characters who appear in its pages - a lot of well-known Nettleham names find their place in the later records, and as I looked further back in time, one by one they disappeared. (Mansford, Vickers, Pearson, Wingad, Straw, Parker, etc.)

The records housed in the Archives Office start at the Act of Enclosure 1776 - yes, I vaguely remember hear­ing about that in history lessons in my youth - but only now did it really begin to mean something. The Manor was divided into lots; and each per­son who had the rights of grazing etc. on the commonly held land, and strips of land to cultivate in the Manor, was allocated a portion to enclose " in compensation for the loss of co1nmon rights".

So it was that a certain Samuel Pashley was allocated "that portion of land of 6 acres 3 roods 32 perches (by measurement either more or less) bounded by Linelands Road to the East, Watermill Road to the West, Oeepdales Road to the North, and land occupied by the heirs of Edward Aistrop and an old enclosure of the said Samuel Pashley to the South". He was responsible for maintaining the fences to the East, the West and the North. An old map I also found indicates that Linelands Road was not the old Leylands that some of us were led to believe but that portion of North Street going in a northerly direction joining the rest of North Street to Deepdales Road. The old enclosure of Samuel Pashley referred to appears to be Walnut House and the home pasture. He was also allocated a larger enclosure of 71 acres 2 roods 7 perches further north towards Welton "in compensation for a cottage in the said Manor of Nettleham, Common Right and 6 oxgangs of land, arable meadow and pasture with the common rights appertaining in the North field of Nettleham.

In 1809 he died, and all this land and the house were willed to his nephew, John Pashley, formerly but­cher of Washingborough; and John left Washingborough to live in Wal­nut House and farm his land.

Property displayed at Thompsons Newsagency, 17 High St, Nettleham.

It would seem that he developed the yard, because from this point in the records - right up to the title deeds dated 1927 that we hold - the

house is no longer referred to as "one cottage with the croft and buildings thereunto belonging" but a

"Messuage or dwelling house and the

yard and garden or parcel of ground, adjoining and contiguous to the same with the barns, stables, outbuild­ings, hovels and other erections thereon". The field where the In­fant school and housing estate have been built in the last fifteen years or so is referred to as "that close or parcel of ground known as the Home Close 7 acres ( either more or less)".

When John Pashley died intestate in 1813, his two sisters inherited the land between them - Elizabeth "wife of Edward Yarnall, late of Brace­bridge, now of Nettleham, farmer"; and Mary "wife of Richard Parker, late of North Carlton, husbandman, but now of Nettleham, farmer". Elizabeth and Mary were found by the "Homage" of the court ( the local landowners who appear to have acted as a kind of jury ) to be "his lawful sisters and joint co-heiresses". They appeared "in their own proper persons" before the Manor Court of 9th October 1813, accompanied by their husbands; each being inter­viewed alone to be sure that they were in agreement with the trans­action about to be made as was the practice of the Court when a woman had land in her own right. Then the property was divided between them, Mary Parker inheriting, among other pieces of land, Walnut House and the Home Close; and from that date on it has been owned by a per­son with the name of Parker.

. At the Court of 5th May 1835, the will of Mary Parker ( by now widow of Richard Parker) was confirmed. I found the provisions of this will intriguing. She had six sons and a daughter. She left £110 each to the first, second and fourth sons; to the third son she left £5 a year for life - was he a wastrel or a simpleton that she could not trust him with a lump sum? - to the fifth son she left nothing - was he out of favour· or already dead? - nor anything to her daughter. The bulk of the estate, therefore, was left to her youngest son, Zebedee.

The fact that Zebedee's gravestone can be seen in a prominent position alongside the path leading from the Beck to the door of the Church, shows that by the time of his death he had established himself as being a man of consequence in the parish.

From 1861, when he left everything to the son of his brother Richard, also called Zebedee, the name Zebedee

.Parker appears frequently in the transactions taking place within the Manor. He can be seen mortgaging the property of people in financial difficulties - and at times thereby acquiring it - and gradually amass­ing land off the road we know as Lodge Lane. Between 1854 and 1873 we find him regularly named as one of the "Homage" of the Court.

Finally, in 1877, his son Zebedee inherited his land from him and old Nettlehamites talk of "Gentleman Zebedee" in his frock coat, top hat and silver-topped cane. He made his home in Swinderby and for a time rented Walnut House to the son of his half-cousin Robert Parker, Eustace, and Tom Parker was born there. In 1927 Eustace's brother, William Robert Parker, bought the house and farm, and when his son Bob married in 1930 he and his wife lived there - for the next 54 years. Other people in Nettleham will re­member far more details of this last phase than I can comment on here •

My search is only half�compJeted -although I know that the house was

owned by a Parker from 1813 and it was in the family on the distaff side before 1776; but I cannot find any earlier records from which

.to pursue my search. Along the way I have discovered some fascinating facts about Nettleham and those who lived here. The actual setting up of the enclosure of the land is an interesting feature in itself - but that's another story.

YourGarden-inAutumn SEPTEMBER September sees the beginn-

ing of the annual cleaning-up operation

in the garden. Effort on weeding must

not be relaxed and a start should be

made on planning for next year.

It will soon be the best time for plant­

ing trees and shrubs and it is not too

soon to start preparing the ground for

them, by digging in rotted manure, peat

or any other good organic compost. When the trees and shrubs arrive they can go into their positions if the weather is suitable.

Heel in plants when they arrive if the

weather is too bad for planting. These should arrive Nov/Dec.

Separate rooted layers taken last year

and plant them in their final quarters.

Water well before lifting and try to

take as much soil as possible on the

roots. Towards the end of the month

take cuttings of hardy shrubs and give

all hedges a final trim by the end of

the month.

Cut off and burn mildewed tips of

gooseberry shoots. Cut out the old

fruited canes of blackberries, logan­

berries and other cane fruits and tie

in the new.

OCTOBER If replanting new roses next month, where roses have been grown for a long time, remove the top

12" of soil and swop it with soil from the vegetable plot. This will help to prevent rose sickness.

Mulch rhododendrons and other acid lovers with moist peat.

Ensure all trees and shrubs are staked against autumn gales.

Prune and tie-in climbing and rambling roses as soon as possible.

Continue to take hardwood cuttings, choosing a sheltered spot and well drained soil.

NOVEMBER Complete autumn digging as soon as possible. Plant bare rooted

trees and other shrubs. This could be

a good time before the depths of winter.

Start pruning wall shrubs and climbers,

training and tying in new growth to

prevent wind and frost damage. Protect all tender shrubs. Trim back roses by about half to prevent strong winds loosening them at the roots. Plant containers with shrubs that are compact a�d reasonably slow growing. Keep them in a sheltered spot during the winter.

A cloche covering Christmas roses will ensure clean flowers.

'flOVJerS SEPTEMBER/UCTOBER

Perennials: Cut down old flowering stems and tidy up the border. Seeds of quick maturing varieties such as lupins, delphiniums, aquilegias and campanulas can be sown in pots and placed in a cold frame.

Bulbs: Should be purchased and planted during the next two months, although November is not too late for tulips. A good guide to the depth of planting is to allow three times the height of the bulb above it when planted.

Spring bedding: Plant out wallflowers, polyanthus, sweet williams, pansies etc. as the removal of summer bedding

·allows.

Rock garden: Remove dead flowers and leaves. If slugs are troublesome use a slug killer and sprinkle a layer of

grit sand around the plants.

OCTOBER/NOVEMBER

Dahlias:- After the first frosts lift the tubers with about six inches of stem attached, dry off in an upside­down position, dust with a fungicide and store in a frost free place.

Herbaceous plants:- Lift and divide if soil conditions allow. Use the plants from the outer edges of the clump when replanting.

In the Greenhouse

SEPTEMBER Pelargoniums ( Zonal & Regal ) If not already done, take cuttings as soon as possible. These can be root­ed singly in 3" pots. John Innes No.1, Universal Soil or peat based are suit­able composts, with the addition of grit, sand or Perlite.

Chrysanthemums: Continue disbudding and spraying with insecticide or fung­icide as required.

Bulbs: Prepare for forcing by potting and plunging in a cool place covered with sand or peat.

OCTOBER Commence resting estab­lished pot plants such as fuchsias, pelargoniums and tuberous rooted begonias by keeping almost dry and

frost free. Pot on primulas and cinerarias as required, also newly

rooted cuttings.

OCTOBER/NOVEMBER Perpetual carnations: Do not over-water. Take cuttings between now and February placinq .in a prop­agator to provide bottom heat.

General: To reduce the risk of Botrytis ( grey mould ) , ventilate whenever possible and keep a dry

atmosphere by not splashing water about, watering in the morning only.

Vegetables SEPTEf'1BER

Plant out: Spring cabbage. Look out for root fly grubs. DO NOT plant those infected - burn them.

Stake and support brussel sprouts

to prevent wind rock.

Cut off potato tops. nestroy these due to the risk of blight.

Bend over onion tops ( this helps ripening ) then lift and dry off ready for storing.

Harvest and use: marrows, beetroot,

runner beans, peas, lettuce and

carrots.

UCTOBER

Sow under cloches winter cauli's and lettuce. Sow in open winter hardy broad beans

and peas.

Plant out spring cabbages, if not

already done. Harvest and store in sand or peat beetroot and carrots. NOT parsnips,

leave them in the ground, frost will not harm them.

Earth up leeks and celery.

Protect herbs with cloches.

Start the big clean up. Burn diseased plants, get rid of rubbish, it only harbours pests. Don't start using sprouts or parsnips yet - a lot better flavour after one or two frosts.

rw V Efi'IU E R

Sow last month's list if still warm.

Dig vacant ground r e a d y for frost to

get in and get the pests out!

Lift and store as soon as possible veg left in plot except winter hardy

Lypes.

Don't forget - check veg in store for

rot and disease - it only need:" one

to make 8 mess.

Whether it was a dare, an absurd gesture of bravado or simply the result of alcoholic over-indulgence no-one remembers, but the application had been made, the interview completed and the team representing J.W. Ruddock and Sons Limited, the Lincoln printing company, had been invited to partici­pate.

There was no turning back now, and as the day of recording approached, the members of the team, Christopher Little of Cherry Willingham, Alan Stacey of Lincoln and myself Nigel Kingston of Nettleham, were all be­coming aware of an increasingly cold sensation in our feet.

Arriving in Birmingham on a Saturday evening in March the team members and our wives ( we needed all the support we could get ) enjoyed a relaxing drink and dinner before turning in early to be ready to face whatever was in store for us the following day.

At this point I would like to say a heartfelt thank you to the person responsible for the invention of double glazing, for without the sound­proofing qualities of this system, I

don't think any of us would have slept a wink. If anyone tells you that Birmingham on a Saturday night is absolutely teeming with birds, it's quite true, but they are mainly starlings who descend in their thousands at that time of year to roost on every inch of horizontal surface in the· city centre, chatt­ering and squabbling continuously amongst themselves.

In the morning, following a hearty breakfast, we said farewell to our wives and set off in good time for the BBC Pebble Mill Studios on the outskirts of the city. Now if you're not familiar with Birmingham, it is not the easiest of places to find your way around, and it was as our car passed the hotel for the third time trying to get out of a seemingly impossible one-way system, that it occurred to us that things were perhaps not fated to go well that day

However, we finally arrived somewhat breathlessly at our destination where we were hastily introduced to the other two teams and then led by the programme producer, Charles Huff, through an endless succession of corridors, lifts and stairs event­ually emerging into the recording studio.

Yes, there was our name on the green set at the far side of a very large and very silent studio, and the reality of the challenge that lay ahead, suddenly became intensely acute, but what was it to be?

The presenc� of a coin-slot photo booth should have given the game away immediately, but somehow it seemed to blend in quite naturally with all the other unfamiliar studio lights, cameras, cables, microphones and monitor screens, and its signif­icance remained lost until we were informed that our task was to design and construct a camera, and with this to photograph a section of the audience later in the afternoon. The time was now around 2 pm, and we had until about 5.30 pm to complete the task, so we immediately donned our green team sweaters and put our heads together to decide how we might approach the problem.

In addition to the usual miscellan­eous selection of bits and pieces supplied as standard to every team in each Egg Race programme, we found a simple lens, a packet of light­sensitive paper and a number of chemicals. We hastily constructed a basic box camera from cardboard, and using a huge cardboard carton as a makeshift darkroom we eventually arrived at the stage when we felt ready to try a test print.

Our wives had meantime arrived at the studio and, using them as the subject, we put our camera and dark-room to the test. We could hardly believe our eyes when we saw the resulting photograph for, apart from a slightly blurred edge, it was per­fect. Focussing correct, exposure correct, developing correct, and we were the first to get there - the other teams were still working on their cameras.

Everyone seemed relieved that at least total failure was now out of the question, particularly certain members of the programme production team who apparently add extra inter­est to the proceedings by placing side bets on the teams.

Those of you who may have seen the programme will remember that our jubilation was to be short-lived, for in the actual recording of the programme, when all three teams photographed the audience simultan­eously, we failed to produce a photo­graph of the same quality, and we also lost marks on speed of producing the final print.

Why the second photograph did not live up to the promise of the test print we shall never know - for we followed exactly the same procedure, and despite'our efforts the points awarded by the judges placed us in third position.

Nevertheless, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience participating in the making of this unique tele­vision programme and meeting the charming and humorous Heinz Wolff.

I know I speak for the other two members of the team when I say that none of us would have missed the opportunity, but if you were to ask us if we would do it again • . • • !
