A group of Norleyans chaired by Parish Councillor Alison Greasley has begun work on preparations for the villages celebrations of the Jubilee, over the long weekend 4-6 June. Some celebrations have already begun to take shape - such as the beer festival, live music and pram race at the Tigers Head but others still need to be organised. The group has come together to organize and co-ordinate various other events and to make sure that we are not running competing ones. And of course - to make sure there really is something for everyone, over the Jubilee weekend. So far main events planned include a street party lunch, childrens sports and games, and a scarecrow competition themed around the last 60 years.

Entries will be sought from groups, and private households, and villagers will be encouraged to walk the village on the last day of the Bank Holiday, the Tuesdays, to see them all. These events complement the events already planned around the pub, many of which happen on the Monday. The events will commence with fireworks on Saturday night, and close with tea at the Village Hall on Tuesday. There will be an exhibition of Norley over the last 60 years, at the Hall. We are particularly keen on photographs of Norley and any written accounts. Overall, a full and exciting weekend. Small groups are thinking about the ideas in the draft timetable shown below - not all of these have been worked through fully or consulted on properly, with all interested

parties. We will be doing this but in the meantime, if there is something you think we should know, please do get in touch. Even more important, are you willing to help run any of these activities? The whole purpose is to get villagers involved please let us know if you are willing to help. The calendar of events needs all kinds of help if no one comes forward it may not be possible to run some of them. It really will be worth it if you dont often get involved in village activities, what could be a better opportunity to get to know more of your neighbours. And if you do, then why change the habits of a lifetime? Chair of the steering group Alison Greasley said; This is a fantastic opportunity for the people of Norley to come together on this occasion of national importance. The enthusiasm of those who have already started to get involved has been great. We hope all will take the time to play a part. Young and old, this will be a day to remember The table below shows the ideas we have had so far. Further ideas are still welcome, but time is now in short supply. If you have any further thoughts, please send them to the usual address (jon007.wild@hotmail.co.uk) as soon as you can. There are other ways you can help: do you have any Union flags you could lend to us? We also need pictures of old Norley to display. There will be a further meting of the large organizing group on March 26, 7.30 at the Tigers Head. All are welcome to attend, to lend their ideas and assistance, or just to find out what is going on. We urgently need to know who intends to take part in the Jubilee Scarecrow Trail: could you please therefore return the attached form via the shop as soon as possible. Alternatively please e-mail the details to the usual address at jon007.wild@hotmail.co.uk.

Kids Eye View Of Norley Immortalized In Clay

Landmarks of Norley are to be commemorated in a soon to be unveiled plaque handmade by the children of the village. Pupils of Norley C of E Primary School set to work making clay tiles for the project last Spring. And by autumn they were ready to fire. But setbacks made completing the mammoth task a feat of logistics. Six months on, as the budding ceramicists finally put finishing touches to their masterpiece, art teacher, Stella Coote reveals it has already received praise from a famous face.

By Kate Greenhalgh The entrance lobby of the village hall is very dull and tells visitors nothing about the Norley and it's environment. Following a generous donation from Norley Horticultural Society, the village hall committee agreed to approach Norley School to see if they would like to be involved, making this a truly community enterprise. Helen Kelly, the class 3 teacher, came up with the idea of a ceramic tile

plaque, with children making individual tiles depicting different village features. It all took far longer than we anticipated but we hope that everyone will regard this a a great piece of children's artwork, celebrating the skills and talents of the pupils of Norley School, something that will enhance the village hall for many years to come. Penny Clark Village Hall Committee When, last April, Stella was tasked with helping a class of eight to ten year olds to design and make a plaque to be hung in Norley Village Hall, she knew it would be a big project. The four foot square plate was to be a collage of tiles, each individually designed and handmade by one of the children, with a Norley theme. Each six inch tile is a 3D depiction of a local landmark. The children chose places that meant the most to them, said Stella, who has been teaching art at the school on Thursdays for almost four years. The young ceramicists were very hands on drawing designs, rolling the clay out, and making and painting the pieces. And by September they were ready to bake their mini masterpieces, but there was a hitch. We struggled to find

someone to fire them said Stella. Eventually Helsby High School saved the day, allowing Stella to use their kiln. Afterwards the production line got to work again, painting the relief clay designs, depicting buildings, trees and daffodils among other things. It was quite testing for them said Stella, explaining that the creative bright designs used a limited colour pallet and relied on artistic flair. I hope people of Norley will be able to recognise just from the tiles which bit of Norley it is. I didnt think it would take quite this long, she said, referring to it as a labour of love. There were some problems and I feared we might drop a tile, so Im pleased its all stuck down. They really worked very hard on it. It is a testament to their powers of concentration. It is anticipated that an unveiling ceremony will be held at the Village Hall in a couple of months. But the plaque has already received the thumbs up from Stellas famous Opera singer sister, Alice Coote. The mezzo-soprano whose family moved to Gallowsclough Lane in 1976, attended Norley Primary School as a child. And that is where her love of music began, Stella said. It was her happiest school memory, she added. Today Alice is kept busy with a flourishing international singing career, but she recently made time to visit the school, admire the tiles and catch up with her former teacher, Mrs Jones. Stella hopes the reception from Norley people will be just as enthusiastic. She said, Hopefully people will like it. Art is a subjective thing.

The Delamere Project

Proposed Improvements to Facilities at Delamere Forest The Forestry Commission is presently examining ways in which to improve the visitor experience at Delamere and that of our neighbours and is currently undertaking work to formulate plans and secure investment and will lead to the submission of planning applications. The Forestry Commission would like to share its initial proposals and seek feedback from a wide range of stakeholders, local residents and the Parish Councils. A draft forest-wide Masterplan has been produced and this consultation process will lead to two planning applications being submitted under the Masterplan. Plans will be submitted for a proposed new visitor hub at Linmere and a cabin development in the Kingswood area. The initial plans are available for viewing from 23rd

February on our website at: http://www.forestry.gov.uk/delamereproject We are very keen to receive comments on these draft plans either in writing or by email. The consultation period will run from 23rd February end of March. There will be 3 open sessions at the Information Centre at Linmere if you wish to come and discuss the draft plans. Tuesday 6th March 10am Noon Wednesday 7th March Noon 5pm Thursday 8th March 5pm -8pm The draft plans will also be on display from 23rd February at the Information Centre at Linmere. Any comments received will be considered and will inform the proposals which will form part of the planning applications. Your views are important to us.

My life in Norley 1903 1910

By Mr. E Lewis Extracted from The First Hundred Years 1882-1982, a Norley Central Methodist Church booklet published 30 years ago. I was born in 1899. My home being in Cow Lane, I lived on the outskirts of the village. The earliest memory of village events I have is one of national importance held in Norley Hall field with a military band in attendance. This was probably the Coronation of King Edward the Seventh. The next memory I have is being carried through the snow to the Sunday School party at the Temperance Hall by my father. Life in Norley in those days was like most other villages very rural in character with its church, three chapels, one C. of E. Day School, two public houses and one off licensed house, and several shops and bakeries. The population appeared divided thus: Church of England adherents were usually Tories and supporters of the public houses, and also members of the Ancient Order of Foresters (with headquarters at the Foresters Hall situated near to the Tigers Head Inn). The other half of the village were the Rechabites who were liberals, total abstainers, Methodists, and had their headquarters at the Temperance Hall opposite to the Central Methodist Chapel.

The Day School is still used today as it was then, and since it was a Church of England school the only official figure we ever saw was the vicar, the Rev. Nunn. Mr. Sumner, the headmaster, always had us on our best behavior when his reverence paid us his weekly visit. In these times the village boasted two houses of importance viz Norley Hall owned and occupied by a family named Woodhouse, later Bell, and Norley Bank owned and occupied by Col. Lascelles. Both were typical upper class residences, owning a number of farms and cottages including laundry houses and extensive outbuildings. They employed quite a large number of workers who usually lived in what was known as tied cottages, or in other words the house went with the job. Norley had more than its share of grocers shops, which in two instances included corn and cattle food, and three of the shops had their own bakeries. Two butchers shops and slaughterhouses were to be found, and one slaughterhouse that killed and dresses pigs only, which were sold to a wholesale pork butcher in Warrington, transported there by horsedrawn vehicle. No village was complete without its

sweet shops. Norley had two, one serving a dual purpose having one window displaying sweets and the other displaying wallpaper. The off licensed premises, known then as now as the Crown Inn, also sold sweets and groceries. Bread and confectionary was supplied by horse drawn vans over to a number of adjoining villages which had no bakery. One sad incident which I remember occurred at the larger of the two butchers establishments. A bullock from Norley Hall was slaughtered and found to be infected with anthrax, a deadly cattle disease. The slaughterman became infected and died. The carcass of the bullock had to be burnt on the premises, and I well remember seeing the fire smoldering away for a week or more as we went to and fro to school, the spot being quite near to the road. One of Norleys most interesting characters was Tailor Yearsley who employed a number of men in his workshop making hunting and various other liveries for the local gentry from many other villages than Norley. He also had a special hobby which was the breeding of Indian Game Poultry, as Cock Fighting still took place at secret spots around.

Poultry breeding also was carried out on a larger scale at Moss Farm, the special line being Barred or Plymouth Rock. The whole farm was given over to this special business. Farming was the only other and main business carried on in the village, with butter and eggs, dresses poultry etc being sold at Fridays Northwich market. Club Day was a special event each year, which was a parade of all the members of the Rechabite Temperance Society complete with regalia and two brass bands one at the head and one in the centre. The procession marched through and around the village, starting and finishing at the Temperance Hall. It was followed by tea in the Hall, and then over to Royles fairground on the Hall field and the field opposite. There were roundabouts, swings, coconut shies etc, with sports for the children and the big event of the evening was the mens Tug-of-War. The village postman, Sam Partington, was a jolly member of the community, one of his habits being to have a good guess who your letter was from, or if unsealed to guess what firm or company were sending a bill for goods or an overdue account. Too noisy characters were the above mentioned Tailor Yearsley and Sammy Walker who lived next door to each other, and practiced the trumpet and the violin respectively. As they lived on an elevated road they could be heard for a considerable distance. One interesting sight on our way home from school was at the smithy, when sometimes we were lucky enough to see the smiths putting the red hot iron rims on the wheels of a farm cart. This process involved making a ring of fire to heat the iron equally before fitting it to the spokes of the wheel. This then was the pattern of life in those bygone days in

Norley when every village event was looked forward to and enjoyed, and when everyone knew each other, making the community spirit so real.

No More Dog Mess Please!!

By the time this goes to press the council 'pavement team' will have cleared up existing fouling on all paths and verges around the village, including pytchleys hollow. The dog warden will have put up some notices around warning of fines and prosecution to offenders. As dog walkers ourselves we know that it takes less than 5 seconds to pick up and bags are a few pence each so no excuse. If you see anyone not picking up, the council only need the persons address and they will do the rest. Dog mess is dangerous as well as unpleasant especially if carried into the school on childrens shoes. Please help us keep our village clean and pleasant to walk in.

What a Load of Rubbish!

The Parish Council is becoming increasingly worried about items of rubbish being left around the village - on roadsides, and on private land. They ask Norleyans to please think about their fellow villagers and those who visit Norley. Nothing leaves a worse impression of the village and its people than discarded items by the wayside.

Sweet Music for the Village Hall

Hoping to raise money towards the Village Hall Windows appeal, Norley composer Arnold Ashbrook thought it would be an idea to get together with Ashton Hayes lyricist Roy Green, to see if they could come up with a collection of original songs. Having met last year at the Kingsley pantomime Aladdin and his Amazing Lamp, with Roy playing the part of Widow Twankey and Arnold as the resident musician and writer, they discovered that they had both been writing songs for many years. They thought it would be interesting to see if they could pool their talents. So Roy set to work last summer on the lyrics, emailing them to Arnold as they were completed one by one. Arnold then started work on the melodies. By the late autumn seven new songs had been completed, and it was time to start to record the CD, titled Believe in Love, at Roys Ashton Hayes studio. Two other songs were included to complete the CD a song from Aladdin sung by Jaynie Blanchard and a song the lyrics of which had been written many years ago by Arnolds father Peter, Song to a Rose. The CD is now on sale, at 4 with proceeds going to the Windows fund. So far sales have ben going well.

To get your copy look into the Tigers Head and the Village Stores, both of which will be stocking them. Or contact Arnold direct on 01928 788108.

Parish Council Draft Minutes

NORLEY PARISH COUNCIL WANT TO SHARE THE MINUTES OF THEIR LAST MEETING WITH PARISHIONERS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, AND THESE FOLLOW. PLEASE DO NOTE THAT THE MINUTES ARE STILL DRAFT AND HAVE NOT BEEN AGREED BY THE COUNCIL AND CHAIR, YET. THEY MAY NOT, THEREFORE, BE THE FINAL VERSIONS. 80 Neighbourhood Plan. (i) Councillor John Davidson provided an update from the Neighbourhood Planning Group in the village. He was voted in as Chairman at their first meeting, and a Steering Group had been formed, from members of the village. This Steering Group will meet with representatives from Tattenhall on 24/02/12, the purpose, to enquire about procedures, share good practises, and agree the way forward. The group have secured 3,000.00 funding for 2012/2013 year from CWAC, along with 3,000.00 for the same period from the Parish Council. (ii) Clerk provided Councillor Davidson with a questionnaire from Vicki Crank from Harper Adams University requesting information about Neighbourhood Plans, for him to complete and return to Vicky. (iii) Clerk explained that it was not possible to share the full Register of Electors with the Neighbourhood Planning Group due to regulations, but would support them in any way that she could. Councillor Davidson to obtain guidance from Jeremy Owens CWAC on what information would be available. 81. Affordable Housing Councillor Greenacre had provided all members with the minutes of the Affordable Housing meeting with Plus Dane.

Chairman informed the Council that in his absence, the Affordable Housing Committee had been created incorrectly and that the committee has to be appointment by the full council, with several decisions then becoming necessary: What the Committee will do Whether they will need any delegated powers How long the committee will remain in existence The terms of reference, setting out the number of members, with these members being appointed each year at the annual meeting held in May All meetings must be run on the same basis as council meetings, with a minimum of 3 clear days public notice and the same rules as the full council.

Whilst the Parish Council have no objection to the extension to the house, they wish to point out that the plans are incorrect. The new garage causes concern, as this could easily be converted to ancillary accommodation, and conditions must be set that ensures this can not, in the future, be sold separately to the house. The triangle of land immediately outside Windy Ridge is used by the village

(e.g. for the Christmas tree light-up and carol service) It is also the access to the property. This has not been a problem in the past as the previous owner had no car. It is easy to see that it could become a problem once cars start to come and go regularly, as they surely will especially during the building works. Indeed, the area of the triangle around the access is already becoming churned up and muddy. The Parish Council would like to suggest that permission for the build is granted providing that the access is moved so that vehicles no longer cross the triangle. 11/05966/FUL Holly Mount Fingerpost Lane demolition of existing house and replacement dwelling. The chairman read aloud for the benefit of members 2 letters from residents wishing to object against this development. Mr Frank Smith attended the meeting to voice his support for this application, and to ask why the Parish Council had felt it necessary to single this property out in the village to be considered for Listing as a Historical Building. The Parish Council agreed that all historical buildings would be considered by the Neighbourhood Planning Group in due course, but felt; this is such an iconic house, that an application for Listing must be made immediately. Clerk instructed to complete this application. 11/05656/FUL Two Dees Norley lane Norley Parish Council had no objections to this development. 11/05614/FUL Charleston Blakemere Lane Norley Parish Council had no objections to this development. 11/02455/FUL Home Farm this application was made in June 2011, clerk followed up this outstanding application, and has been informed by CWAC that they are awaiting information from the applicant. 12/00281/FUL Flaxmoss Cottage Flaxmere Conversion of

garage to kitchen, with incorporation of dorma windows to front and rear of useable loft space. This looks like ancillary accommodation. This is over development of the site, and doesnt bare any resemblance to the original property. Planning Officers must be aware that this property boarders a RAMSAR site. 12/00394/FUL Land adjacent Beech Knoll School Lane, Agricultural Building. Norley Parish Council feels that this building will be too close to the road, and if it is ever to house animals, will be too close to the adjoining houses. There is a fire risk which must be considered. The building is far too big for the 8 acre site. A condition must be set that ensures this is not converted to an agricultural engineering block. Decisions 11/05491/FUL Two storey side extension and single storey rear ext4ension (demolition of garage and conservatory) Pinewood School Lane, permitted subject to conditions. 83. Correspondence (i) Email received from Emma Stevens providing information concerning Local Leaders and the Olympic Games. (ii) Email received from Adrian Whitehead Network Steward CWAC, informing the council that an inspection on Post Office lane had founds grids to be blocked which had caused puddles to form on the road. A jetting order has been raised in order to have them cleared. (iii) Email received from Mark Simmons CWAC in regard to Arc Angle town status for Northwich. The Parish Council agreed not to support this at this time. (iv) Letter received from Emma Stevens, inviting members to Local Council Assembly meeting on 01/03/12, Councillor Wild agreed to attend.

(ii) Payment 85.00 Mr J Woodward internal audit fees 10/11 passed for payment. (iii) Payment 82.00 Society of Local Council Clerks passed for payment. 86. Flaxmere Moss Following a request to Norley Parish Council to have the condition of the above assessed due to lack of maintenance over recent years Rachel Garnett of Nature England made a site visit on 09/01/12. She was met by a number of parishioners with local knowledge and interest of the Moss, to carry out an

inspection and consider any work which was required to bring the Moss back to its optimum state. Flaxmere Moss is a SSSI and a RAMSAR site, CWAC and NPC hold a watching brief and nothing else over the Moss under section 9 of the 1965 Commons Registration Act placed by a commons commissioner at a court hearing on 26/01/77. Because of the status of the Moss any work or action upon it has to be approved and supervised by Natural England. Amongst the issues which were discussed during the visit, which was Mrs Garnetts first to the site where:The water level of the Moss considered to be too low The removal of the birch saplings to prevent moisture loss and seedlings The removal of a number of scots pines to prevent seeding The removal of beehives to allow the Moss to recover from continual access trampling and the removal of the boardwalks The management of the large willows adjacent to the cottages talk to NPC before any work takes place. The removal of the midden at Flaxmere Hall to prevent nutrient contamination of the Moss. 87 Any Other Business

NORLEYS NEWEST ARCHITECT

Introducing Scott Desert, a Norley resident who is setting up his own local architectural practice, Scott Architecture. Scott lives with his family in Norley, having travelled around the world. and lived in places as varied as the Bahamas and Anglesey. He thinks this range of living experience has widened his outlook as an architect and has contributed to his store of fresh ideas. Scott has paid his dues in terms of training studying at Manchester and Leeds, and spending a year in London, gaining experience in the design and building of luxury residences. So why Norley? Well family of course, but also Scott is a keen golfer! He has been asked to help with designing improvements to his golf club at Delamere, in fact. And he will still work in other places such as London from time to time. Scott says he plans to specialise in luxury residential property, and he has a great interest in sustainable building, including use of new technology to reduce carbon footprints. As well as helping the planet, such designs can help to keep costs down, through reduced bills of course, but also by making use sometimes of grant funds available. Another specialism of Scotts is bespoke detailed design work in areas such as joinery and bathrooms, moving closer to the territory of interior design. Scotts work in London saw him cover the whole range of responsibilities from drawings, to planning permission, project management and site visits. Some architects specialise in just part of the recess, but Scott finds the full range of the work exciting. He would be interested in speaking to anyone from Norley who may be looking for help with feasibility studies, planning applications, appraisal design, and all kinds of architectural advice, be this for a new build, extension or other project.

discharged with a leg injury at 17. Thereafter he joined the Territorials, signing on annually for several years before signing up for 3 years and was then sent to Iraq a short time after his daughter was born. His wife was obviously not best pleased. He was assigned to the Royal Artillery Battery of Territorials in May of2004. He was given warnings about bombs but just as dangerous were the spiders and scorpions. After trying to acclimatise in cold and damp Wales (Temperature 30 degrees at 3am) he flew to Basra in a Hercules, where they were told to drink 9 litres of water every day because of the heat. The job was to escort the water tankers using soft skinned landrovers which were not quite right for the job. There was terrible poverty with locals trying to get jobs round the camp. He got married in the August and was then sent back. He was part of the group which found Chemical Alis house with a mortar bomb embedded in it. It is a very beautiful country where the people and the families are not unlike our own. Sweets, pens and water were the most special gifts we could give their children. After he returned he suffered awful depression and things got very hard for him, but he overcame all his problems and over all he felt that the experience had enriched him. He went back to his work as a policeman feeling rather out of place but his colleagues and friends helped a lot. He left the TA in 2006 and summed up his whole experience as One massive enriching experience Next meeting in the Village Hall will be March 8th at 730pm.

Graffiti Wall
Last year Class 3 were discussing graffiti, in their literacy lesson. What it is and who does it. We had a debate about wheteher we thought graffitti was good or bad. We thought it looked good in certain places but could be vandalism if in the wrong places. We wrote our names in graffiti and then everyone sent a persuasive letter to Mrs Griffiths asking whether we could have a graffiti wall, in our playground, giving reasons why we wanted one. This year we have had a breakthrough, when term started a board appeared on the wall, a graffiti wall. The school owes the PTFA a huge thank you and in particular to Mrs Paget, who organised the board being made, for with out their fund raising we wouldnt have the wall. The board is on the way round to the entrance for children, not the main entrance. It is a chalk board and we hope you will enjoy looking at our pictures and doodles.

personal census information extremely seriously. Collection of census data was completed last year and no further requests will be forthcoming from the Office for National Statistics relating to the 2011 Census. The statement will shortly be added to the ONS web site http://www.ons..gov.uk/ Please pass this information to family members, friends, neighbours and anyone you think maybe vulnerable. Identity Scams. I have been made aware of the resurgence of the scam where an email or letter is sent to an individual from a source purporting to be genuine when actually it is not. Examples of the like are suggestions you are owed refunds from store accounts, inheritance, are a prize winner. Whilst this is not an exhaustive list the constant in them is the fact that they require you to provide personal information including bank details and are unwarranted approaches. Please be careful and verify the authenticity of any request for personal details before you share them. New Non-Emergency Number 101 The 101 new non-emergency number went live on 23rd November 2011 and provides the public with a memorable number to report crime and other concerns that do not require an emergency response such as: if their car has been stolen; if their property has been damaged or vandalised; where they suspect drug use or dealing; if they want to report a minor traffic collision; if they want to provide information about crime The introduction of 101 is part of a national programme to make it easier for members of the public to contact police in a non-emergency, where an immediate police response is not required. From the 23rd November 101 replaced the

forces previous non-emergency number 0845 458 0000 Calls to the 101 non-emergency number will cost 15 pence for the entire call, no matter how long the call or what time of day it is. This applies to both land lines and mobile phones.
