Wells and Pumps<br />
The first amendments are now available for<br />
purchasers of <strong>Hatfield</strong> Regis Local History Society's<br />
publication “The Wells and Pumps of <strong>Hatfield</strong><br />
<strong>Heath</strong>”. It is suggested the following be added to the<br />
addendum page :<br />
APRIL 2013<br />
Lilac Cottage, Stortford Road. Enlargement of the<br />
cottage. Well filled in and an extension built over.<br />
Pump gone.<br />
The Stag. Development planned. The well remains<br />
covered over in what was a bar of this public house.<br />
A cast iron yard pump which stood against an outside<br />
wall has gone.<br />
There are possibly four more sites still to be<br />
researched and an article from an owner who is<br />
restoring his pump for irrigation use still to come.<br />
“Thank you” to all who have purchased a copy.<br />
Copies of this publication, the late Robin Gurnett's<br />
“<strong>Hatfield</strong> <strong>Heath</strong> and its Residents in 1861” and<br />
“Prisoner of War Camp 116” by Ivan Cooper are still<br />
available at the PO/<strong>Village</strong> Tea Room or contact<br />

<strong>Hatfield</strong> Regis<br />
Local History Society<br />
President: Rupert Gosling Esq. Lord of the Manor<br />
The April meeting of the History Society began with a<br />
launch of the <strong>Hatfield</strong> <strong>Heath</strong> POW Camp 116 Book preceded<br />
by a slide presentation. A well attended meeting followed<br />
the local history of the Camp and a general<br />
introduction to POW Camps in the British Isles.<br />
The location in Mill Lane provided the starting point for<br />
a series of images that was representative of both the<br />
Prisoners and Guards sections. Aerial photographs dated<br />
1946 and recent images show that the Camp has not<br />
changed considerably. The Prisoner section is now occupied<br />
by Greenways with many of the original Laing wood<br />
buildings still in use after almost 60 years. The Guards<br />
section brick built MOWP style has not been occupied and<br />
is now overgrown and subjected to vandalism. There is<br />
however examples of Prisoner artistic abilities in the Camp<br />
and others presented to some <strong>Village</strong>rs. A mural painted<br />
above the door in the canteen, carvings owned by Joy<br />
Passfield and a series of water colours are some examples<br />
of the Prisoners skills. Shower, toilet, kitchen and Guards<br />
living quarters, although dilapidated are still recognisable<br />
as buildings which would have been occupied during the<br />
war.<br />
The presentation ended with a question and answer<br />
session that involved contributions from some of the audience<br />
who had personal recollections and memories of the<br />
Prisoners.<br />

A Talk on Ethiopia<br />
Diane and Richard’s illustrated talk on Ethiopia was<br />
stimulating and informative. It was very interesting to<br />
discover something about the rich history, culture and<br />
traditions of a people that I only became of in terms of<br />
famine or the war with Eritrea.<br />
The majority of<br />
the talk centred<br />
on the Rock<br />
Churches of<br />
Lalibela. It was<br />
fascinating to<br />
learn that these<br />
churches were<br />
carved into rock<br />
horizontally or<br />
vertically. The<br />
vertical ones<br />
starting at the<br />
top, cutting out<br />
the shape,<br />
creating a space<br />
around and then<br />
working down to<br />
the required<br />
level.<br />
Some of the churches were beautifully decorated. As<br />
can be seen from the picture below, there is a strong<br />

the bar forms a chin rest which affords some measure<br />
of relief for tired legs.<br />
We were also shown some of the primitive conditions of<br />
Northern Ethiopia. Women collecting water from rivers<br />
or springs in<br />
large containers<br />
and then<br />
carrying them<br />
home on their<br />
heads. Some of<br />
the men in the<br />
tour group had<br />
difficulty lifting<br />
them.<br />
Before the talk<br />
we were treated<br />
to some<br />
delicious<br />
sandwiches and scrumptious cakes. We were also<br />
able to chat to old friends and make some new ones.<br />
The talk was given to raise money for Holy Trinity<br />
Friends. This is an organisation which provides funds<br />
to go towards the upkeep of the village church. We love<br />
our church and think that the village and the community<br />
would be poorer in every way without it. If you would<br />
like to support the church by joining the Friends (£10 a<br />
year, or £100 for a lifetime membership) please contact<br />
the Vicarage 730288, or one of the churchwardens,<br />
730610 or 870390.<br />

Do you want to lose weight, get fit and burn big calories?<br />

WANTED<br />
A GROUP OF 6-8 PEOPLE<br />
WILLING TO BECOME FIRST RESPONDERS<br />
FOR THE VILLAGE.<br />
You may be aware that we live a distance away<br />
from the nearest Ambulance Station, this means that<br />
we are well outside the recommended 8 minute<br />
response time.<br />
You may also be aware that the first few minutes<br />
can make a difference between life and death in the<br />
case of Cardiac Arrest, with the time to first<br />
treatment being critical.<br />
In view of this I am trying to get a group of 6-8<br />
people who would be willing to become First<br />
Responders for the village.<br />
This role is a voluntary one, and it does mean<br />
undergoing advanced life saving training by the East<br />
of England Ambulance Service. If you are interested<br />
and would like further information please email me<br />
at alex@ash1staidtraining.co.uk , or grab me on a<br />
Tuesday evening at Brownies or Guides in St.<br />
Mary’s school, <strong>Hatfield</strong> Broad Oak.<br />
If we can get enough volunteers we<br />
really could make the difference<br />
between life and death to someone<br />
in our village.<br />
Thank you<br />

BOOTCAMP DID THE LACTIC RUSH 2013<br />
It was 8.5 miles of running cross country with<br />
30 obstacles including wading through neck<br />
high muddy water and mud puddles
BIRD SCARERS<br />
I was playing in the lane when the local farmer<br />
approached me. He dug in his pocket and produced<br />
a sixpence telling me to make as much noise as I<br />
could whenever the pigeons came down into the<br />
field behind our bungalow. The wheat had just been<br />
harvested and the sheaves stood in stooks, the ears<br />
gathered together in a concentration of grain that<br />
must be irresistible for a flock of pigeons. I took<br />
great delight in banging an old dustbin lid and was<br />
very effective, at least for the time that I was on<br />
duty. The sixpence together with a ration coupon<br />
enabled me to buy a bar of chocolate from the local<br />
transport café.<br />
I realise now that the war had highlighted the<br />
vulnerability of our food supply and, in the years<br />
immediately following, the wartime attitude towards<br />
home production continued, which included<br />
ploughing unused meadows to increase production.<br />
Loss of food to pigeons and other wildlife was<br />
unacceptable and in the late 1950’s or early 60’s<br />
there were inter county shoots to help reduce the<br />
pigeon numbers.<br />

With world population around the seven billion and<br />
rising rapidly, together with increased prosperity in<br />
the developing world there is a growing concern<br />
over food supply and no doubt our farmers will rise<br />
to the challenge as they always have.<br />

<strong>Hatfield</strong> <strong>Heath</strong> Football Club<br />
“TREBLE" WIN<br />
THE DIVISION ONE LEAGUE TITLE,<br />
THE DIVISION ONE CUP<br />
BILL BRUTY CUP.<br />
<strong>Hatfield</strong> <strong>Heath</strong> Football Club has just completed<br />
one of the most successful and memorable<br />
seasons in our history.<br />
Under manager Spencer Bull the club won the<br />
coveted "treble" winning the Division One<br />
league title, the Division One cup and then<br />
topped it off with the prestigious Bill Bruty Cup.<br />
Older villagers will remember Bill who lived in<br />
Ardley Crescent and was a legend of the Essex<br />
football scene until his death in the early 1980s.<br />
So it was particularly poignant to win the trophy<br />
for only the second time ever with a 4-2 win<br />
over Parsloe Athletic at Bishop's Stortford's<br />
Woodside Park stadium on May 11th.<br />
It's an exciting time for the club with the launch<br />
of our fund-raising appeal to secure a pitch in<br />
the village. We have already banked over<br />
£3,000 in our attempts to raise enough money<br />
to buy land for a pitch for the first time in the<br />
club's 120 year history.<br />
A quiz in the village halll raised £765 and a<br />

The 15 th of March at <strong>Hatfield</strong> <strong>Heath</strong> School saw the<br />
children (and staff) dressed up in red for a sponsored<br />
dress up to earn money for those that needed it. The<br />
school dressed up in red and did a school talent show.<br />
Even though the children and staff had a great time<br />
no one forgot the cause that they were raising money<br />
for.<br />
The school showed great talent, entertainment and<br />
enthusiasm for Comic Relief! The winner of the<br />
juniors was Jed Eastland singing ‘Food Glorious<br />
Food’ from Oliver Twist and the joint winners for the<br />
infants were a group of dancers and a group of<br />
singers singing ‘Skyfall’.<br />
The school raised approximately £1000; an amazing<br />
amount of money for Comic Relief.<br />

PHIL SNELL<br />
NEED FOR MORE RUNWAYS IS<br />
AVIATION INDUSTRY SPIN,<br />
SSE TELLS<br />
AIRPORTS COMMISSION<br />
The UK economy is not being held back through a lack<br />
of airport capacity, says Stop Stansted Expansion (SSE).<br />
In a statement based on its submission to the Airports<br />
Commission, widely reported in national and regional<br />
media, the campaign group says there simply isn't any<br />
unsatisfied demand for more business flights or for more<br />
routes to emerging markets. Claims that the UK<br />
economy is suffering through lack of airport capacity are<br />
aviation industry spin, it says. To back up its statement,<br />
SSE says <strong>Heath</strong>row flew more people to Miami last year<br />
than to the whole of mainland China, and more people to<br />
Nice than to either Beijing or Shanghai. Gatwick flew<br />
almost 50 times as many people to Spain last year as to<br />
the four BRIC countries - Brazil, Russia, India and<br />
China - combined. Stansted provides flights every day of<br />
the week to Alicante but none at all to any of Europe's<br />
main business centres such as Paris, Zurich and<br />
Frankfurt. Meanwhile, London continues to be<br />
independently ranked as the best city in Europe for<br />
doing business and as the city with the best transport<br />
links with other cities and internationally. In its<br />
submission to the Commission, Brian Ross, SSE's<br />
economics adviser, says overall demand for business<br />
flights is actually declining and is now 20% less than it<br />
was ten years ago. SSE's submission to the Airports<br />
Commission<br />
LONDON 'WON'T GET BOOST FROM<br />
AIRPORT EXPANSION'<br />
London Evening Standard - 22 April 2013<br />
AN INDEPENDENT report into airports expansion<br />
today accused groups in favour of boosting capacity<br />
of "distorting" the economic arguments.<br />
The study by Dutch consultants CE Delft claims the proexpansion<br />
lobby is guilty of "miscalculating" and<br />
"exaggerating" the case for change. It also criticised the<br />
Department for Transport for failing to take into account<br />
social and environmental costs compared with the<br />
economic benefits. And it said London's economy would<br />
not necessarily get a boost from expanding or building<br />
new airports as it already had good air connections.<br />
Sir Howard Davies's airports commission is examining<br />
whether the South-East needs additional capacity to<br />
remain a major world player. John Stewart of Hacan, the<br />

<strong>Heath</strong>row anti-expansion group, said: "This new report<br />
could not be more timely. It comes just as the<br />
commission is asking the hard questions about airport<br />
capacity and connectivity. Its message is clear: new<br />
runways may not be nearly as important for our<br />
economy as is commonly assumed."<br />
The study, commissioned by Hacan, said the Department<br />
for Transport estimated <strong>Heath</strong>row expansion would<br />
produce £5 billion in economic benefits but when the<br />
New Economics Foundation used different predictions<br />
for growth and oil prices they found it would result in a<br />
£5 billion loss.<br />
The new report comes as the Confederation of British<br />
Industry risked a backlash by claiming that night flights<br />
into <strong>Heath</strong>row, Stansted and Gatwick must be protected<br />
because they contribute £1.2 billion to the economy.<br />

When the Parish <strong>Magazine</strong> celebrated its 50th Year<br />
anniversary in 1943, the Vicar, and <strong>Magazine</strong><br />
Editor, the Rev A F Gardiner contacted earlier<br />
incumbents going back to the first edition in 1893 to<br />
ask them to write about their reminiscences during<br />
their time at <strong>Hatfield</strong> <strong>Heath</strong>. All replied!.and gave a<br />
fascinating account of life in the <strong>Village</strong> during their<br />
period of occupation. In particular the accounts<br />
given by the Vicars during the two World Wars gave<br />
an insight as to life here which could not be obtained<br />
by any history book. Here is the third report which<br />
covers the period 1905 - 1915 during the Rev De<br />
Vere Watson's time.<br />

The next Editor the Rev. H. DE V. WATSON who<br />
came here in 1905, and is now Rector of<br />
Belbroughtqn in.Worcestershire, has sent some<br />
very interesting reminiscences of his ten years'<br />
work here,<br />
" I first took services in the church at <strong>Hatfield</strong> <strong>Heath</strong><br />
on Ash Wednesday, March 8th, 1905, though I was<br />
not actually licensed and admitted as Perpetual Curate<br />
and Titular Vicar until March 28th by the Bishop of<br />
St. Albans.<br />
My most vivid recollection of coming to the Vicarage<br />
is that a new kitchen range which had been included<br />
in the repairs to be done had not arrived and that Mr<br />
and Mrs, Horace Broke, who had invited us to stay at<br />
Gladwyns for a day or two, most kindly<br />
kept us there for a fortnight. This was the beginning<br />
of a friendship which, I am glad to say, lasts to the<br />
present time with a family whose interest in the parish<br />
has been unfailing.<br />
The most outstanding event connected with the<br />
church during my time as Vicar was the celebration of<br />
the Jubilee of its consecration on August 4th, 1909,<br />
During the preceding 3 years £300 had been raised for<br />
a new organ, which is still I trust doing good service.<br />
On August 4th the Bishop of St<br />
24
Albans, Dr. Jacob, came to dedicate it, and two<br />
former Vicars, Mr. Beaven and Mr. Reynolds, were<br />
present to take part in our thanksgiving services.<br />
The church was, I remember, packed to the doors.<br />
On the following day there was a most enjoyable Fete<br />
at the Vicarage. Memory recalls the Widdington<br />
Brass Band and the Rev. F. W. Galpin<br />
of, Broad Oak, a most accomplished musician,<br />
amusing himself by playing various instruments in<br />
turn in order to give .the players a rest. Also the<br />
800 fairy lamps which lighted up the garden in the<br />
evening.<br />
I look on to another August 4th, that of; 1914 when<br />
war was declared on Germany. I had arranged to start<br />
my holiday on that day and a locum was coming into<br />
the Vicarage. Not knowing exactly what was going<br />
to happen we had agreed to carry on with our plans,<br />
so my wife and I and our two little girls started off for<br />
the Isle of Wight where we spent the first few weeks<br />
of the War. On our return many lads came from time<br />
to time to the Vicarage to discuss the question of<br />
enlistment and there was a very good response of<br />
volunteers from the village. Special Constables were<br />
enrolled. I was made a Corporal and had many night<br />
walks round the village, often with Mr. Ernest<br />
Hockley. The Government kept in view the<br />
possibility of an attempt at invasion and instructions<br />
were issued as to the roads by which the villagers<br />
were to be evacuated in the event of a landing on the<br />
East coast. Able bodied men were to remain behind to<br />
help to dig trenches, etc., and part of my duties was<br />
specified to be that of' burying the dead.'<br />
In my time means of transport were limited, and there<br />
was no wireless, so that we were a self-contained<br />
community depending on ourselves for amusement,<br />
and I remember many enjoyable concerts and other<br />
social gatherings in Trinity Halt. Cricket was popular<br />
and calls to mind the figures of I. Brown, G. Harris,<br />
P. Newman, R.Warden and<br />
others. A popular event, which included a cricket<br />
match, was an annual visit of a party from the Trinity<br />
College Oxford Mission at Stratford, where I began<br />
work. This contact between the village and Londonover-the-<br />
Border was beneficial to all. The Mission<br />
has alas ! been bombed out of existence. There was a<br />
very clear cut division between Church and Chapel,<br />
though we were good friends, for each body had its<br />
own Day School with Head Master and Assistants, a<br />
most unusual position in a village of only about 600<br />
inhabitants. There were very few children who did<br />
not belong to one of the Sunday Schools and though<br />
maybe one looks back through rose-tinted glasses, it<br />
seems to me that there was a<br />
greater readiness to attend Sunday Services and weekday<br />
meetings of various kinds than I find now-a-days<br />
This may have been partly due to the fact that we<br />
were, as I have said, a self contained community. In<br />
25<br />
addition to the organ, and oak casing which was<br />
added later, the church was beautified by the E.<br />
window given by Mrs. Horace Broke and family, and<br />
the wrought iron lectern subscribed for by<br />
parishioners and friends, both in memory of Mr.<br />
Horace Broke, These were dedicated on Palm<br />
Sunday, 1911, by the Rev. J. B. Andrews, RD. and<br />
later Mrs. Broke gave the small window adjoining the<br />
pew where they had always sat. Mr. E. Perry was my<br />
Warden for 10 years, a faithful friend and loyal<br />
servant of the Church. Mr. Bretton was People's<br />
Warden for my first few years and was succeeded by<br />
Col. H.Broke who continued in office up to the time<br />
that I left. Mr. D. Day was Clerk and Sexton for the<br />
whole period and on Trinity Sunday, 1909, was<br />
presented with a silver watch in appreciation of 25<br />
years' service. In 1914 Essex was separated from the<br />
St. Albans diocese, the new diocese of Chelmsford<br />
formed, and the Rev. J. E. Watts-Ditchfield, Vicar of<br />
St. James-the-Less, Bethnal Green,was consecrated as<br />
its first Bishop on St. Matthias' Day. One of my last<br />
recollections as Vicar of <strong>Hatfield</strong> <strong>Heath</strong> is of a visit<br />
from him and a talk in the study about the parish<br />
when he gave me his Blessing for the new work to<br />
which I was going."<br />
