In order to offer the best possible care we are working as a group ofpractices alongside the GP practices in St Agnes, Perranporth andCarnon Downs - this is known as the coastal cluster. In line with nationalrecommendations we wish to provide high quality care to those withcoronavirus infection and those without, whilst trying to avoid any crosscontamination between the two groups. As such Chacewater will be a“hot” (coronavirus treatment) site for all 4 practices. Our “cold” (noncoronavirus) work will take pace in Carnon Downs surgery- throughChacewater/ Devoran doctors and nurses where possible. We will,however, continue to dispense medication for both Devoran andChacewater patients from the safe zone within Chacewater Surgery.

In order to preserve safe levels of staffing, we have had to close ourDevoran surgery for the time being. It may be that further changes willbe required over the forthcoming weeks and months. This is achallenging situation and we understand that this might cause youworry. We are very aware of this and will keep you fully informed. Wecan assure you that all decisions will be made with the best interests ofour patients and colleagues at heart.

Please note, you should still visit the NHS 111 website in the firstinstance for advice if you, or one of your household, are suffering fromcoronavirus symptoms. If you need treatment or care during normalsurgery hours, you may be referred back to your GP. If you are self-isolating and don't have anyone you know who could collect yourprescriptions from the surgery, please see our website for the most up-to-date support in the local area being provided by the Parish Councilsand other volunteer agencies. We thank you for your patience andunderstanding at this difficult time.

In addition to the many other voluntary tasks undertaken by membersof our community as we do our bit to support thwarting theCoronavirus pandemic, anumber of residents havetaken advantage of the goodweather and temporary lull intraffic volume and use theirdaily activity period to addresssome of the longstanding litterproblems across the Parish.This has seen some folk walkmany of our roads and lanesearly most mornings andcollect any litter - they cansafely grab - roughly a metre or two in from the roadside. Consistentwith all else in life, the Team has learnt much from this experienceand so we thought we would share our observations with the What’sOn readership, in the hope that it might inspire us all to look at ourplace in a slightly different way in future. So, in no particular order:

�� Firstly, be in no doubt that we live in and around a very specialcountryside place that, if protected and allowed to breath, is areal marvel to behold.

�� The green habitat that allows our wildlife to exist, explore andexpand is all around us and are exceptional gifts of nature thatwe should all perhaps cherish just a bit more.

P.T.O.


�� We are surrounded by a heritage that is rare indeed. So, weneed to protect and identify with it because it could disappear inthe blink of an eye or the hand of a developer who has no realfeel for our space.

�� The period of “lockdown” has seen a wider spread of our residentpopulation out and about exploring our roads and lanes, in rela-tive safety – long may that continue and be encouraged.

�� Some inconsiderate road users do remain and have obviouslytaken advantage of the clear roads to speed but at least one canhear or see them coming …for now at least!!

�� The bird song, especially first thing in the morning, is frighteninglywonderful to hear.

�� Cattle, sheep, horses and all are out in the fields and adding realvalue to the rural landscape – what a treat they are.

�� As the atmosphere is much cleaner, do we see the moon and thestars just that bit more clearly do you think?

�� As much of the litter along our verges was cleared away beforethe hedgerows started to really show their growth, all sorts ofplant life has emerged and in places that we have not seen before– just take a look if you can and log them.

�� Many folk have been out and cleaned up the front of their homes.It is noticeable and has given the Parish as a whole a much betterkerb appeal – can we keep this up do we think?

�� We have been able to report numerous instances of historic fly-tipping that we would otherwise have missed and thanks must goto the staff from Biffa for their support in clearing away each andevery reported issue.

�� Cormac – not always heralded - have also done some terrificwork to address some longstanding pothole and undergrounddrainage issues.


�� Our dog walking community are doing their bit by taking the ma-jority of poo bags home, in preference to stockpiling things alongknown routes or beside already bulging bins.

�� Finally, many people have thanked the litter pickers for what theyhave been doing and more fully appreciate how bad things hadbecome in this respect over the past few years in particular.

The period covering the Coronavirus pandemic will be rememberedfor generations to come because it has and will continue to have amost devastating impact on our families, friends and those things welove, some worse than others. However, out of despair there isalways hope and in terms of Chacewater Parish, it might be worthreflecting on the many positives that this place can bring to all ourlives. We live in a truly special Green and Open space; we need torespect, enjoy keep it that way.

Hello All,

The present lockdown has meant a lot of us are spending more timein the garden – if we are lucky. Many of the ViB team are lookingafter plants and cuttings in our own gardens and greenhouses – sowork goes on behind closed doors even though it has been stoppedin public spaces outside.

Have you been doing the same? Have you got extra plants or shrubsthat you might consider donating to the Village in Bloom project?Let me know! [Tel: 01872 561626]

Remember, it’s never too late to get involved. After lockdown, assoon as we are allowed out, we can start to work on the ChurchHill/Car Park bank. Also, we can continue to clear vegetation nearthe Shute before it gets completely overgrown again.

Volunteers and plants will be needed! See you after the shutdown!

:

Mary Moyle was born and grew up on theIsles of Scilly. She was the third of sevensisters fathered by John Grenfell Moyle – asurgeon and magistrate in Hugh Town, StMary’s.

Mary also had two brothers. One was twoyears older than her. Her younger brother died, aged 11, whenMary was 15 years old. Shortly afterwards, Mary came to themainland to train as a teacher. From the brand new railwayterminus at Penzance (opened in 1879) she travelled to Cadbury(between Exeter and Tiverton) where she worked as a student teacherin the Devonshire village school.

Mary met John Hall, a young carpenter from Chacewater,somewhere along the line. Back on Scilly, a few weeks after her 25thbirthday, Mary married John Hall on 10th March 1888. Their firstson was born on 26th October in that year and Mary named him

for her younger brother who had died ten yearsbefore. The small family soon came to live in Chacewater whereMary’s second son, , was born at the end of 1889.

Some weeks later, early in 1890, Mary’s mother Eliza died aged 57years. Mary’s third child, , was born on 23rdDecember 1890. Meanwhile, her newly-widowed father retired fromthe Scilly Isles and moved to Redhill in Surrey with five of hisdaughters aged from 32 to 13 years. Mary’s husband John Hallwent to work in America for some years while his sisters ran the postand telegraph office in Chacewater.

Mary’s father died in Redhill on 4th April 1893 and her husbandreturned home to Fore Street – where the new Passmore EdwardsInstitute was being built. Her fourth child, , wasborn on 30th January 1895. [A year later, there was greatexcitement when 28 year-old sister-in-law and postal worker P.T.O.


Caroline Heath Hall married her neighbour, young blacksmithFrederick Bray. Tragically, Frederick died just 4 years later on 24thJanuary 1900, a few weeks before his 27th birthday. His grave liesbeside the lych gate in St Paul’s churchyard, a memorial alsocommemorates his wife who died 58 years later.]

Before the end of the century, Mary and John Hall had two moresons; was born 16th October 1896 and theyoungest, , was born late in 1899. Mary senther two girls to live with her oldest sister, schoolmistress EmmaGrenfell Moyle, in Surrey. In return, her other elder sister, JessieMoyle came to live with the family in Chacewater. Jessie hadlearning disabilities and in 1902 she died aged 42.

As her children grew up during the next ten years, Mary and herfamily had to cope with more losses. Grandfather John Hall died,aged 81, on 2nd February 1904. On Ernest’s 10th birthday, in1906, his widowed aunt Caroline Heath Bray married Lewis Broad, afarmer from Liskeard, and left the village. In April 1909, the boys’uncle Richard William Hall died aged 37. Eighteen months latertheir father John Hall, aged 45, also died in Liskeard, on 24thSeptember 1910.

Mary’s oldest children had already left home. 22 year-old JohnGrenfell Hall went to the Scilly Isles and worked as a gardener; soonhe would emigrate to Australia. 19 year-old Gladys remained inSurrey, training to be a teacher. The new widow left Chacewater andwent to Bradford with her remaining children. Charles (21), Dorothy(16) and Ernest (14) all found work in the textile mills, while heryoungest, Thomas (12), was still at school in 1911.

In May 1914, Charles Hicks Hall (24) and his brother ErnestGranville Hall (17) joined the Territorial force West YorkshireRegiment. The Austrian Archduke was shot and killed on 28th June.Three weeks later, 18th July 1914, (by then a teacher aged 23),Gladys Mary Hall married Harold McFarland Davis, a CharteredAccountant and 13 years older. Her aunt Emma Moyle was witness.


On the 4th August 1914, German troops invaded Belgium and theBritish government declared war on Germany.

Mary Elizabeth stayed in Bradford throughout the war. Her firstgrandson was born June 1916 in London. All four of her sonsserved on the front in France. Two were killed in May 1918 and tworeturned home the following year. Mary witnessed her daughterDorothy’s marriage in September 1919 and the birth of grandsonJohn C. Scott in October 1920. Her surviving sons also married andhad children.

Mary’s sister Emma died on 26 June 1930, having retired to Poole.Her former sister-in-law Sarah Jane Hall finished with theChacewater Post Office and died on 26 January 1937. Mary herselflived through the Second World War and moved to the south coastwhere she died, in Bournemouth, on 17th June 1946.


It is with regret that the Chacewaterand District Cancer Research UK Fundraising Committee would liketo inform all its supporters that after years of outstanding service toCancer Research UK, they have decided to disband with immediateeffect.

As you will appreciate this is not a decision that has been takenlightly.

The Committee began in 1980 and since then has raised anincredible £211,655.49 for life-saving work. Over the years theyhave held a number of events, including Coffee Mornings, BingoNights, Garden Parties, Store Collections and the famous BigBreakfast. These events have been enjoyed by many in the localcommunity.

Cancer Research UK and the Chacewater Committee would like tosay a very big thank you to everyone in the village and surroundingareas for their unfailing support over the years as none of the moneyraised would have been possible without your help and contribution.


The Chacewater Projects belongs to everybody in Chacewater. Everyyear it does a lot of things intended to benefit the people who live inthe area and those who come to visit us

The Projects co-ordinates work to bring the Chacewater bonfire andfireworks spectacular show in November. We also co-ordinateChristmas festivities like the Children’s Party, lighting up the mainstreet and bringing Santa to the village in his sleigh.

On a wider scale, we have worked with theParish Council to install a new accessibleroundabout in the playground – welcomedby many children before the currentlockdown as it actually goes round.

The Projects also sponsors efforts toenhance the village environment bymaintaining flower baskets andencouraging teamwork for Chacewater Village in Bloom. Electedofficers of the Chacewater Projects have engaged in making asuccessful bid for central government funds to create a largeCommunity Garden near Chacewater School.

We have supported development of the Chacewater Energy Groupwhich has organised two very well-attended Renewable Energy daysand Electric Vehicle shows. The Group continues to promote energyawareness and local action to grapple with the effects of climatechange.

The Annual General Meeting of the Chacewater Projects wasscheduled to review Projects activity over the past year, to approvethe annual accounts and to elect a new Executive Committee onMay 11th. Unfortunately, this meeting cannot happen in the currentCovid-19 crisis.

please look out for advance notice of a new date.

We would like to ask the children of Chacewater if they would like to

paint or draw us a rainbow to go in our window as a lot of key workers

drive through Chacewater. Our thought is to fill all of our windows with

rainbows to show our appreciation. When we have all the windows in

the front of our shop full we will donate £100.00 to the Friends of The

Royal Cornwall Hospital. Please only drop your rainbow in if a parent is

getting some essential goods or taking some exercise or email your

rainbow to [email protected]. Keep safe everybody!


This is a serious letter and yet I ask you to bear with me and read on to the end.

Many of us are at home, some are not able to work, some are self-isolatedbecause of underlying health conditions. Our children are not at school. Othersare finding that life is difficult for numerous reasons. Our essential servicecolleagues are working hard to care for us in so many ways and sometimes puttingtheir own health at risk in doing so.

What are your feelings about all of this? Some are clearly afraid, feeling aloneand apprehensive. Others are distressed by the circumstances in which we findourselves. There is some anger that arrangements have to be altered and a wholelifestyle seems to be under threat. It is all so inconvenient to say the least.

If you can get beyond the emotional impact, what are your thoughts at this time?How will I pay the bills? How can I re-organize my life and help my nearest anddearest? How can I help others? What can I do? Even, will I survive thiscatastrophe? Will those I love and care about survive?

It isn’t often that we are almost forced to look deeper into ourselves if we dare.

It isn’t often that we find ourselves going underneath the surface and beyond thesuperficial.

It isn’t often that we are in a situation that challenges us to look more closely at ourlives.

I am very aware that those who may happen to read this will be of all types, havediffering political opinions, beliefs, values and convictions. Y ou will all have widelydiffering circumstances and yet I would ask you to think about what is mostimportant to you.

The world seems to have turned upside down!

Whatever your situation or beliefs, this might just be the time to consider the witnessof someone who was said to have turned the world the world upside down himself.He expressed attitudes and convictions, and demonstrated values which wereconfirmed by his actions. They are often in stark contrast to those of many of ustoday. Christians and non-Christians alike usually can agree that Jesus is the bestrole model to have (especially in our circumstances). From His faith, perseverance,generosity, and even His intelligence, people see the best qualities that humankindcan possess.

He was compassionate.


He never looked away from people. In the 8 Saints parishes our congregations aredoing their best to keep an eye out for others and their needs...something we canall do a little more at this time.

Without a doubt, Jesus was the ultimate servant of others.

Although He was praised as a great teacher and even had a decent following, Hemade sure to teach them to be servants by actually doing it himself. In Mark10:45, Jesus even tells everyone: “the Son of Man came not to be served but toserve”. Although people praised and sometimes pampered him, He did the exactopposite by lowering himself and serving others. We need to think about ourbehaviour and not be self centred.

Obviously, Jesus had a love for others.

If He didn’t, He wouldn’t be compassionate nor a servant. Jesus claimed thatthere is no greater love than to die for one of your friends - and He did just that. Ifanyone doubts His love, all they have to do is look upon the cross and see theagony that He bore for their sakes. He experienced that horrible death so that allcan be saved. That, very clearly, is true love at its finest. We all need to expressour love for others at this time and not to hold back.

Jesus is forgiving. This is definitely contrary to the everyday mantra of looking outfor number one and obtaining personal justice. Jesus was by no means concernedfor His own life. Today especially in our current circumstances we all need reachout to others and make our peace with them. Bitterness kills and life is too short tohold grudges. It’s not easy for us to let them go but necessary for us all and evenfor our world. If you need to speak to a priest then look at the 8 Saints website forcontact details – it may have to be by telephone or other media.

Jesus had no lack of commitment whatsoever. Wherever He was, or whoever Hewas with, He was fully in the moment and fully committed to His goals ofpromoting a society that he called ‘the Kingdom’. Maybe you can think ahead andresolve to make this a better world? What sort of world do you hope for? Now isthe time to re-assess. There were certainly many obstacles during the ministry ofJesus , but He stayed on track and finished strong. We all need to hold fast to ourbasic values even when it is hard going

No matter how busy His ministry got, He found time to be alone and pray.

The majority of the Churches of the 8 Saints Cluster will be open at some timeduring each week, whilst we are allowed to. Advice is changing all the timethough. There will be no services, however they are places of refuge from thecurrent anxieties where you can sit maybe pray, light a candle and hopefully getthings in perspective. You don’t have to be a Christian or a believer to sit

P.T.O.


and reflect on where you are at in life. Look at the 8 Saints website for resources tohelp you pray.

There were certainly times when Jesus used stern words, but He knew whengentleness was appropriate. Children seemed to love coming to him, and Hemade sure the disciples knew not to hinder them when they did so. When speakingwith His disciples, his mother, or others, He could be very kind-hearted and gentle.But, when He was giving someone a rebuke or making a point in an argument, Heknew when turning up the heat was necessary and only did so strategically. Let’sbear this in mind in our encounters and speak to truth in love and be helpful to oneanother if possible. Criticism without responsibility is just too easy.

Throughout the gospels, Jesus clearly gets portrayed as a very patient man. Afterall, He was surrounded by disciples who constantly doubted him, there were thosewho continually attacked Him, and large crowds who wouldn’t leave Him alone.Despite all of that, He kept His composure and responded appropriately to everyindividual. We are all tempted to be very impatient at times with the authoritieswho are trying to help at this difficult time….patience is very necessary just now.

Jesus exercised self-control. Before His ministry was launched, we read that Jesusspent time being tempted in the wilderness. Although He was offered food, power,and other things, Jesus controlled His desires and submitted them all to the will ofthe God. Even if you don’t believe in God you might think about higher values andresist the lesser ones, thinking of the long term and what sort of world you wouldwant to live in.

Jesus had humility. He seems to have had every opportunity and right to demandpraise and accolades but He never did! Even when the crowds sought to makeHim king, He rushed away from their grasp. He did not want to become asideshow performance that people could enjoy. Rather, He wanted to seek andsave the lost and be forgiving. He could have travelled around in order to show offHis powers in other towns, but He chose not to. We are all in this together, it willnot help if we are doing it for praise or honours but for the cause of all ofhumankind.

Final Thoughts. The world seems to have turned upside down! Maybe weneed to change ourselves as we face up to COVID-19? The world doesn’t needmore role models, it needs us all, whoever we are, believer and unbeliever alike tobe more like Jesus - the ultimate role model. He is the most human of humansand someone who shared our humanity in full with all its pain and its joy. Peoplewill not find a better person to emulate positive character traits from than JesusChrist himself. But then, I would say that wouldn’t I?

CHACEWATER PARK


VILLAGE PONDWATCHApril 2020

Spring creeps slowly around thepond. Marsh marigolds gleambright yellow flowers while agoldfinch pair flashes red, yellow andblack against the drab grey/brown of

old bramble scrub, where sparrows scour the dried reed stalks along the banks.

Before April rains, the pondwater is clear but movement stirs brown sediment.Wind shakes the water into shifting lacework patterns. Whirligig beetles alsocontribute and some pond skaters contrive to skitter across the fracturedsurface. Lacking rain, the water level is falling and the pond shrinks awayfrom the shores. Scores of small beetles scurry across sunlit shallows.

A few black tails begin to thrash and glitter in the sunlightwhere toad tadpoles have hatched and graze the surfaceweed mats. Under water, larger frog tadpoles burst outof billowing clouds of spawn jelly. A small feedingcluster gathers at the weed’s edge as bigger tadpoles swimstrongly and alone.

Newts come and go, nibbling the outer edges of frogspawnpillows. Sliding down amidst tangles of weeds, their tails sway sinuouslytogether. A handful of newts mingle among a forest of plant stems and roots.Others cruise along the bottom, wriggle into nests and nudge at spawn banks.Rarely, a water stick insect appears andpushes through the weed mass.

Discovered resting on the bank, a mallarddrake takes flight and heads north. He is aregular visitor to the pond but is verywary of people. Even when feedingsafely in the water the bird will leap upquickly and fly away along the CarnonValley.

P.T.O.

During the current period of “lockdown” the government has activelyencouraged, those who can, to take some form of daily exerciseoutside their home and so many of us here in Chacewater Parishhave chosen to take advantage of and trek many miles of ourglorious Public Rights of Way (PRoW).

However, in view of social distancing some footpaths, especiallythose that pass through or near dwellings, have either been put outof bounds or are obviously difficult to navigate in terms of findingsuitable passing places with other walkers. The intent of this article istherefore to offer a degree of direction and may be a couple ofspecific walking routes to enjoy around the Parish, that are bothattractive and can be trekked with a high social distancing specificallyin mind. In short, we should all try to keep to our quieter roads,lanes, Bridleways and Byways rather than risk Footpaths that areclosely hedged. Wheal Busy clearly offers a myriad of open


spaces but there are more areas to explore in about an hour of evenpaced walking and just some are:

�� A good road route “loop” can be taken up Cox Hill that has leftturn opposite the bus shelter near Truro Tractors towards theCreegbrawse Crossing. Over the crossroad and along theCreegbrawse ridge road (local term) before cutting left down theByway beside Foxhole Farm, which eventually brings you downonto the Twelveheads to Chacewater Road and near familiar ter-ritory once more.

�� At the top of Cox Hill one cantake an alternative road routeby turning right near TruroTractors. After about a thirdof a mile you can takeanother right turn towards thenow magnificently restoredKillifreth Stamps mine enginehouse before crossing over –what can still be a rather busyroad at times - towards WhealBusy, from where you cannavigate your way home.

�� One can, of course, take theroad right over the top of CoxHill and down into Todpool,where you can either take a right towards Unity Woods or the leftinto Poldice Valley along the Mineral Tramway – in terms of time,contour and distance this is probably best done by bike at thistime.

�� Looking north and west, there are a plethora of wider Footpaths,Bridleways and Byways that can be taken off Station Road up toKea Downs and along towards the A30 before cutting back down


left onto Station Road once more. The views are magnificent andmay well introduce you to places you have not visited before.

In all, we have 17.5 miles PRoW here in Chacewater Parish. We carefor them, the people who live near them and the amazing habitatthat each Footpath, Bridleway or Byway creates for all things weassociate with living in the rural environment. One short articlecannot do them justice but hopefully the above will help. A quick visitto Cornwall Council’s Interactive online mapping service may helpyou explore more (there is a specific PRoW portal) as indeed would aview of the cornwalltrails.net website, which identifies 3 specific walksin and around Chacewater Parish that you might enjoy. It also givesthe trekker a bit more background as to what Chacewater is allabout.


Dear Reader

Writing in last month ‘s What’s On I hoped that we should soonexperience some warm, dry weather, and we certainly have had thatover the Easter weekend, and despite all of us being in lockdown ithas made us feel brighter and been good for us when taking ourdaily exercise. We will certainly all remember the Spring of 2020 fora long time when we have been living in extraordinarycircumstances. We will also remember the extraordinary kindnessthat so many people have shown to each other – may this longcontinue well after the present crisis is over.

Two things are are so important, one how important the villagemagazine is to the whole community of Chacewater and beyond.We must say a huge “thank you” to Brenda for producing it month bymonth but especially at this time of National shut down as well as theshops who have the magazine available at their outlets for thecommunity to collect or are distributing copies with their deliveries.Thank you one and all. Secondly how important it is for us all tolisten and respect the National Government advice, you should onlyleave the house for very limited purposes:

�� Shopping for basic necessities, for example food and medi-cine, which must be as infrequent as possible.

�� One form of exercise a day, for example a run, walk, or cycle- alone or with members of your household. Any medicalneed, including to donate blood, avoid or escape risk of injuryor harm, or to provide care or to help a vulnerable person.

�� Travelling for work purposes, but only where you cannot workfrom home.

As they say “ ”

IN MEMORIAMPte. Charles Hicks HALL. West Yorkshire Regt (1st/6th Btn).

Died 26 May. 1918

Charles Hicks Hall was born in Chacewater in 1889, the second son ofMary Elizabeth and John Hall. He was educated at the National Schooland lived for 21 years in Fore Street where his grandfather, John Hall sr.,had built several houses. When his father died in the autumn of 1910,Charles moved north to Bradford town with his mother and 3 youngersiblings. He worked in the mills as a wool sorter.

In the Spring of 1914, Charles enlisted with the Territorial force WestYorkshire Regiment as No. 240043 Pte. Hall. At the outbreak of war,Charles signed up for service overseas and was posted to the HeadquartersCompany, 1/6th Btn. which landed in France on 15th April 1915, joiningthe 146th Brigade of 49th (West Riding) Division. This unit stayed inFrance and Flanders throughout the war and experienced the full rigoursof military action on that front.

Just three weeks weeks after landing, the West Riding Division took partin the classically disastrous Battle of Aubers Ridge on 9 May. With nogains, the Yorkshiremen witnessed thousands of troops cut to pieces byGerman guns. For the rest of the year, the 49th Division sustainedcontinual losses as it was engaged in day-to-day trench warfare in theYpres area. Pte. Hall’s battalion was on forward defence on 19 Decemberwhen they were attacked with heavy shelling and the new phosgene gas.

On the 1st July 1916, day one of the Somme offensive, the 49th Div. wasagain tasked to occupy ground captured by first wave troops. The 1/6thWest Yorks, advanced on Thiepval village to support the 36th (Ulster)Division but attacking companies lost half their strength. The CO, Lt-ColWade, was wounded and the 1/6th Bn. moved into reserve. Two weekslater Charles’ unit had to fight off German flamethrowers in frontlinetrenches at Thiepval. On 3 September, they went over the top at dawn inthe first wave of assault near Pozières but 4 hours later remnants of theattacking companies were back on the start line.

P.T.O.


In 1917 the 1/6th Bn. West Yorks Regt. returned to Ypres and engagedin battle at Poelcapelle on 9 October. It was a familiar story, sloggingthrough mud, rain and shellfire; attacking troops cut down bydefending machine guns.

Pte Hall and his unit met the German Spring Offensive on theKemmelberg, just south of Ypres. Their frontline was overrun on 25thApril 1918. Captain George Sanders VC led a rearguard action by acompany of the 1/6th Bn. but he was wounded and captured. The samefate befell Pte Charles Hall who was taken to Germany and treated at theHameln military hospital. Capt. Sanders was awarded a Military Cross.Sadly, Pte Charles Hicks Hall died of his wounds on 26th May 1918.His grave is in the Niederzwehren Cemetery in North Germany and heis commemorated on his grandfather’s grave in Chacewater.


SURVIVOR

L/Cpl. Ernest Granville HALL. West Yorkshire Regt (1st/6th Btn).Died Jun. 1978

Ernest Granville Hall was born in Chacewater on 16th October 1896, thefifth child of Mary Elizabeth and John Hall. Like his two older brothers, hewent to Chacewater School and lived in Fore Street until his father died.When he was 14 years old, Ernest moved with the family to Bradford andstarted mill work.

On 7 May 1914, 17 year-old Ernest went with his older brother Charles toenlist in the West Yorkshire Regiment Territorial force as No. 240230 Pte.Hall. He signed up for service overseas when heturned 18 and joined “D” Company, 1/6th Btn. whicharrived in France on 15th April 1915.

Three weeks later, Pte. Hall’s company was in thetrenches near Armentières and Ernest saw thousandsof men destroyed by German shells and machinegunfire. For the next five months his company rotatedthrough the frontline around Ypres, enduring constantbombardment, shellfire and sniping as they manneddefences or laboured behind the lines. Ernest Hall wasseverely concussed and shipped back to England on15 September 1915. He was treated at the KingGeorge hospital for two weeks but stayed at home for 3 months after his 19thbirthday. Pte. Hall returned to his unit in France on 2 Feb, 1916 as they beganto prepare for the Somme offensive.

Ernest and his West Yorks Regiment were engaged in the battle of the Sommefrom the first day of July 1916 until it stuttered to close later in the year.They were deployed back to Flanders in 1917 and Ernest was made a LanceCorporal in July. On 9 October L/Cpl Hall was wounded in action as the1/6th Bn. toiled through rain and artillery fire to join the Third battle of Ypresat Poelcapelle.

After a grim winter, Ernest faced the German Spring Offensive of 1918. Intwo days' desperate fighting the 6th Bn lost 22 officers and 461 otherranks as it was driven off the Kemmelberg hill overlooking Ypres P.T.O.


on 25–26 April. Ernest Hall’s big brother Charles was one of those lost. Afew weeks later German armies smashed through Allied lines further southnear Soissons and Ernest’s young brother Thomas was killed alongside manythousand others. On 31 July 1918, L/Cpl Hall was granted 2 weeks leave inthe U.K. He was able to return to comfort his mother in Bradford as shelearnt that two sons were lost. Ernest went back to the line in France on 14August 1918. He survived the last 3 months of the war and was demobilizedin February 1919. One year later, he re-enlisted with the Royal Artillery.

In June 1929, Ernest Hall married Emma Meacham. Their daughter, born 6Aug 1931, was named after her grandmother, Mary Elisabeth. Ernest alsosurvived the Second World War. He died in West Sussex aged 81 years.

IN MEMORIAMPte. Thomas Gerald HALL - Worcestershire Regt., 3rd Btn.

Died 27 May 1918

Thomas Gerald Hall was the youngest son, born in 1899. His childhoodin Chacewater was marked by family loss. Uncle Frederick died whenThomas was an infant and his elder sisters went away to live with AuntEmma Moyle. His playmate, Aunt Jessie Moyle, died when Thomaswas a toddler. He was 5 years old when Grandfather John died inFebruary 1904. Aunt Caroline left the village when Thomas was 7 andtwo years later his uncle Richard died. He wasstill at school when his father died in 1910 andmother took her family to Yorkshire. Back inChacewater, grandmother Sarah died in April 1913.Thomas had just left school when his older brothersjoined the army in 1914.In 1916, Thomas enlisted in Bradford. He wasposted to the Worcester Regiment and begantraining as Pte. T. Hall, (42013). It is not clearexactly when Thomas joined the 3rd Battalion inFrance. Certainly, there was a constant demand for


new soldiers, but Thomas may have been held back to join replacementtroops later in the war.The 3rd Bn. Worcester regiment moved to the Somme and joined a bigattack in October 1916. They were relieved at the end of the month andmoved north to Flanders. Winter passed in Ploegsteert with many raidsand minor skirmishes.In June and August 1917 the 25th Division was engaged centrally in battlesat Messines ridge and Pilkem. Both secured ground and were deemedsuccessful although losses were high. The Division was withdrawn andThomas Hall’s unit joined the 74th Brigade before it moved back to theSomme in December and worked for three months to dig a continuoustrench system at the front.The German Offensive in March 1918 overran these defences and theBritish fought to withdraw across the old Somme battlefield. On 31st

March, reduced to less than half strength, the 25th Division returned toFlanders and took on reinforcements – fresh trained recruits and 19year-old soldiers - to restore its complement.Perhaps, Pte. Thomas Hall had missed the earlier actions but he was surelyin the line of fire now. The 3rd Bn. Worcester Regt. was brought out ofreserve to defend positions near Armentières when the next phase of theGerman attack struck on 9 April. They took heavy losses as constantfighting went on for five days and on 20 April were pulled back to Provenon the way to Dunkirk.On 9 May, Pte. Hall and his comrades travelled for hours by train to joinIX Corps south of Soissons and the river Aisne where they shouldrecuperate. But on 27th May 1918 the whole area was swept by Germanshelling from 1.00 am until dawn. German infantry attacks followed,broke through and crossed the river by midday. The Worcester Regt. andother units thrown into action were nearly destroyed by the relentlessenemy advance. Pte Thomas Gerald Hall was killed in action on that day.He has no known grave as his body was never found or identified. Hisname is commemorated on the Soissons Memorial with 3,900 othersoldiers and on his grandfather’s gravestone in Chacewater.


SURVIVOR

Pte. John Grenfell HALL. Australian Imperial Force (22nd Bn).Died 28 Jul. 1952

John Grenfell Hall was the first born son of Mary Elizabeth and John Hall.He was born on 26 October 1888 on St Marys, Scilly - where his maternalgrandfather, John Grenfell Moyle, was a surgeon and magistrate. His othergrandfather, builder John Hall, also served as postmaster in Chacewatervillage where John Grenfell came to live as an infant.

By the time he was 2 years old, John Grenfellhad a baby brother and a sister, Charles andGladys, sharing their mother’s house in ForeStreet while their father was in America.Father returned when John Grenfell went toChacewater School. He was 6 years-oldwhen a second sister, Dorothy, was born inJanuary 1895. A second brother, Ernest,arrived just before his 8th birthday thefollowing year. Three years later the housewas full when baby brother Thomas was born.John G. was 12 years-old when his sisters leftthe house and his aunt Jessie Moyle came tostay. Jessie died before John finished schoolaged 14.

When his father died in 1910, John Grenfell,not yet 22 years-old, became the oldest male member of the Hall family. Heworked as a gardener on the Isles of Scilly until he emigrated to Australiawhere his mother had relatives.

John Grenfell Hall joined the Australian infantry on 28th December 1915and was posted to the 22nd Battalion. Arriving in France in May 1916, Pte.Hall joined his unit on the Somme on 31 July for the second week of theirbattle at Pozières. Shocked, he survived this baptism of fire and remainedwith the battalion as it rotated through the front line in France and Flanders.He was treated for Trench foot in January 1917 and was sent to hospital inEngland.


In the Summer, Pte. Hall re-joined the 22nd Bn. as it moved from the Sommeto Passchendaele and engaged in the successful battle for Broodseinde ridgeon 4th October 1917. Back on the Somme, John G. was wounded in actionat Ville-sur-Ancre on 19 May 1918, exactly two years after his first arrivalin France. However, he was able to re-join the unit at the end of July 1918.He was made Lance Corporal four weeks later, before the battalion movedinto the battle for Mont St Quentin. Further engagement in the decisive battleat St Quentin Canal at the end of September ran into fighting at Montbrehainon 5th October, the final Australian infantry action before the Armistice.

In January 1919, L/Cpl. John G. Hall got four week’s leave to see family inthe UK. He may have missed his surviving brother Ernest who returned toEngland a week after John went back to his unit in France. John GrenfellHall sailed back to Australia and left the army later that year. He settled backin Victoria and married Ellen May Baker in 1922. He died 30 years later on28 July 1952.
