In the <strong>June</strong> 2015 issue, we featured the Cantare Choir as they<br />
prepared to join forces with Greater Manchester Police Male Choir<br />
for an exciting concert. Since then, the Choir have had a very<br />
successful year and were awarded Honours in each category they<br />
entered in the recent Festival of Performing Arts. They were<br />
invited to sing at the selected performers’ concert at the Town<br />
Hall on 8th May where they were presented with the Jim Noble<br />
Trophy for Outstanding Performance.<br />
You may remember the article which local historian, Gary<br />
Heywood-Everett, wrote on the <strong>Norden</strong> Riviera as well as the<br />
Rochdale Pioneers of Workers Education. Gary has kindly offered<br />
to write a regular ‘From the Archives’ feature in our magazines<br />
and this month has included a fascinating piece on the Carlton<br />
Ballroom which was such a well know landmark in the town<br />
back in the 30’s and 40’s.<br />
Until next month….<br />

Hypno-Weight Loss Therapy<br />
Make a difference to your life in just 6 sessions…Hypno-Weight Loss Therapy<br />
uses a number of techniques to help you change the way in which you eat.<br />
Through the use of hypnosis and other therapy techniques you can ditch the<br />
diets and instead, listen to your body and its signals telling you when you are<br />
full and when you are hungry. As part of the process, suggestions relating to<br />
healthy eating, motivation to exercise, eating smaller portions, support for<br />
emotional eating, speeding up your metabolism and increasing your<br />
confidence and self-esteem are made through hypnosis.This is a new way of<br />
living rather than another fad diet. For further details please contact:<br />

Therapy versus Anti-Depressants<br />
Why is there more of a stigma connected to having therapy than taking Anti-depressants? There are<br />
situations in life where these pills can be beneficial for a short time. But if you could only experience what my<br />
clients experience after only 3 sessions, I am sure that 75% of you would never chose the medication route.So why do some of us<br />
need either? There are many reasons, however, I believe we live in a quick fix society. If we want something we want it now, we<br />
don’t want to wait for rewards. Society has created unrealistic expectations within us. They tell us “you don’t have the money – we<br />
will lend it to you, buy it now” “you want to be thin – take these pills”, etc. What happens to us then is that we have to live with<br />
the consequences of our choices. Huge Credit Card bills . A bank loan to pay on top of your mortgage. A chaotic mind caused by the<br />
stimulants in the slimming pills. Everything that we expect and chose to have right now has a huge consequence on us as human<br />
beings. We start to feel trapped, lost, and helpless. We now can’t afford to pay for the important things, we can’t think straight<br />
because of the stimulants. A huge void opens up inside of us, we feel inadequate, useless, we feel we are not good enough, beautiful<br />
enough, rich enough, etc. so that thing that you wanted, needed, had to have in that short space of time, has now made you feel<br />
a lot worse than you did before you had it. Coaching, Counselling, NLP allow you the freedom to choose to be strong willed enough<br />
to work things through the hard way. Yes it is a harder choice to work at loving yourself, learning how to be and feel confident,<br />
letting go of things that no longer serve you, forgiving people for things that happened long ago, using your brain instead of letting<br />
your brain use you !!! The fantastic thing about finding the right Counsellor or Life Coach is then deciding what amazing changes<br />
you would like to see in your life. You become stronger, more able to deal with family feuds, relationships breakdowns, children’s<br />
tantrums, have work life balance and have less stress. The choices are yours.<br />
Choose therapy today – Live the Life you always dreamed of.<br />

At Chippendale Hearing Services, we pride ourselves on<br />
providing the highest standards of professional audiological<br />
care, personal attention and continued aftercare. Both Patricia<br />
Chippendale and Sandra Neumann have a wealth of experience<br />
spanning over 35 years, having worked in local NHS audiology<br />
departments, social services, the private sector and a national<br />
charity for deaf people.<br />
WE ARE HERE TO HELP YOU HEAR.<br />
Time for understanding<br />
Most people ignore their ears until something changes. Explaining how<br />
hearing loss or ringing in the ears can affect each person is complex<br />
and needs specialist professional guidance. At Chippendale Hearing our<br />
customers range from 16 to 98 years young and frequently comment<br />
on how we gave them time to explain their own situation and needs by<br />
asking various questions, thus allowing each person to make informed<br />
choices.<br />
Here’s a comment from someone who recently visited us:<br />
“I have recently suffered from hearing problems as well as tinnitus in<br />
my left ear which means that I have a constant ringing. Having<br />
always had perfectly good hearing, it was a very stressful and<br />
Chippendale Hearing Services<br />
frightening time for me and the treatment which I received from the<br />
NHS did nothing to put my mind at rest. It was very much a ‘one in<br />
one out’ approach and I came away feeling very upset and isolated.<br />
However my visits to both Pat and Sandra at Chippendale Hearing<br />
were a completely different experience. They took the time to listen<br />
to me and were extremely caring and helpful in their approach. They<br />
talked me through what to expect during the hearing test and after<br />
this they carefully explained what was happening in my ear and what<br />
I could expect in the future. I didn’t feel as isolated and I know that<br />
they are always at the end of the phone should I need to speak to<br />
them or see them again”.<br />
Kate Chapman<br />
Time to get the best<br />
We offer a holistic approach and a one stop shop service of information,<br />
hearing tests and/or specialist equipment and ear moulds for protection<br />
against noise - customers comment that they absolutely love the ACS<br />
motorcyclist moulds and musician moulds with appropriate filters.<br />
As specialist professionals we are expanding our service and will soon<br />
be opening additional consulting rooms on the first floor of 675<br />

Here at Triad Fabrications we have been helping people to transform their gardens for over 35 years. We have a<br />
magnificent reputation of always providing top quality products, efficiency and a friendly down to earth approach to<br />
business. Based in Shawclough we are easily accessible for consultations regarding your bespoke designer gates and<br />
railings. The majority of our customers like to choose from our extensive range of designs whilst others prefer to put<br />
their own stamp on their property. All gates and railings are made on our premises by our design team to ensure the<br />
highest quality or materials and workmanship.<br />
We are now also specialising in security grills as unfortunately in this day and age it is very necessary for us all to be aware of the<br />
security and safety in and around our homes. There is a now great demand for window and door grills that can look elegant and<br />
will enable you to feel safe and secure in your home.<br />
Our electronic gates with or without intercoms enable you to control who enters your grounds. They look beautiful and they keep out<br />
all unwanted guests and animals. These can be operated from inside the house with an intercom screen so that you can see who is<br />
calling.<br />
Balustrades and handrails can be made to be pleasing to the eye whilst enabling safe passageway in awkward areas such as<br />
staircases and areas around pools and ponds.<br />

Carnival<br />
Saturday 18th <strong>June</strong> - make sure you're<br />
in <strong>Norden</strong> Village to join in the<br />
celebrations for this year's Carnival. The<br />
theme this year is 'Circus' - and the<br />
organisers are expecting the procession<br />
to be the biggest and best - with lots<br />
of Circus masters, clowns, and perhaps<br />
some lion tamers. There's been an<br />
unprecedented number of stalls this<br />
year. We've got everything from<br />
locally made treats to candles and<br />
great gift ideas. Remember the<br />
Carnival falls on the 18th <strong>June</strong>, the<br />
Saturday before Father's Day so it'll<br />
be ideal to pick up those last minute<br />
treats for your Dad.<br />
The Parade leaves Caldershaw School at<br />
1pm and after the parade has passed<br />
through the village, there'll be plenty of<br />
entertainment at <strong>Norden</strong> Community<br />
School. There'll be a range of funfair rides<br />
as well as live music, too.<br />
So don't forget whether you are in the<br />
parade or watching, please get into the<br />
spirit of the Parade and dress up in this<br />
year's theme of 'Circus'. In the past we've<br />
had local pubs, all the schools, charities<br />
and local businesses getting involved.<br />
Every charitable group will get a<br />
donation as a thank you for being part<br />
of the parade. There's a deadline to<br />
join so please contact us before 1st <strong>June</strong> if you're interested.<br />
Please email nordencarnival@sky.com or tweet us @<strong>Norden</strong>Carnival.<br />
We look forward to seeing everyone on the 18th <strong>June</strong>! The sun will be there, so make sure you are, too.<br />
Best wishes, <strong>Norden</strong> Carnival Committee<br />

TREE-MENDOUS EFFORT<br />
BEGINS TO BEAR FRUIT!<br />
A community orchard has just been planted on the award-winning Roch Valley Outdoor Learning Site. The site, which is situated<br />
on Roch Valley Way, is used by five local schools that make up the Roch Valley Educational Partnership. The orchard received<br />
funding via the <strong>Bamford</strong> Ward Councillors and Roy Down, outdoor learning co-ordinator for the site said: "without the support of<br />
Councillors Ian Duckworth, Pat Sullivan and Jane Gartside, many of the improvements on the site would not have been possible.<br />
Their recent backing of the community orchard is yet another example of the great work they do. Apple, pear and plum trees<br />
have been planted on the site and also on Mandale Park as at least half of this area comes under the <strong>Bamford</strong> Ward." The Roch<br />
Valley Site has been short listed for several national and regional awards. The Partnership is currently the holder of the North<br />
West In Bloom's, Young In Bloom Champion Award and the site is also used by the<br />
Countryside Rangers, Groundwork and Community Payback. Future plans are to<br />
extend the wildflower planting programme as well as the habitat creation and to<br />
continue to support Rochdale In Bloom. The Partnership has another site, in<br />
Springfield Park, which contains a small community tree nursery, and was recently<br />
visited by <strong>Bamford</strong> St Michaels Beavers who planted lots of small trees. Roy said:<br />
"the Beaver group, led by Lisa Fern and Vicky Law, was fantastic and made a real<br />
positive contribution to the tree nursery, I was very impressed by the Beavers<br />
enthusiasm and I can't wait to work with them again.".<br />

The Queen’s Favourite scones<br />
Recipe from Heather Williams<br />
Method<br />
1. Sieve flour, salt and baking powder into a bowl and rub in the margarine<br />
or butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.<br />
2. Add the sugar and sultanas 3. Make a well in the centre of the mixture<br />
and crack in the egg. Add some of the milk and mix together to form a soft<br />
but not sticky dough, with a round bladed knife. Add more milk if necessary.<br />
4. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently. Roll or press out<br />
until 2cm thick and cut into rounds with a metal cutter, this will make a<br />
maximum of 8 scones.<br />
5. Place on a floured baking tray and brush with milk. Bake at 220C, gas 7<br />
for 10 to 12 minutes until well risen and golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.<br />
Serve split in half and buttered.<br />
You can leave out the sultanas and serve with strawberries and whipped<br />

Sudden Bridge and Bury Trust Road<br />
Last months trip down Halifax Road interested me to investigate other old Turnpike roads in the<br />
Rochdale area and today I investigate the Sudden Bridge and Bury Trust road. The road came into<br />
existence in 1797 and was 4 miles and 6 furlongs long. It replaced a winding road that went from Sudden Bridge (now Sudden),<br />
and followed the present Marland Old Road to the hamlet of Marland<br />
then Marland Fold and across fields to France Hill and Moss House were<br />
it met the old Heywood to Castleton road known as Wilderness Lane and<br />
right to Captain Fold. A large embankment carried the new road from<br />
Moss Side to Dumfries then a shallow cutting to Captain Fold.<br />
The new road had bars where travellers paid dues to use the road and<br />
these were situated at Rycroft near the present Little Nook farm and at<br />
Wham Bar where Bury New Road meets Bury Old Road (this was<br />
replaced a few yards towards Heywood when Bury Old Road formally<br />
Heap Lane was modernised).<br />
It may be imagined that in those far off days travelling along these<br />
roads would be peaceful and hassle free. However this seems to have<br />
been far from the case. The following are from court cases brought in<br />
Heywood against those infringing the Turnpike rules.<br />
A carter was found to be asleep whilst on the road. The magistrate<br />
asked him if he had been asleep. 'well not asleep exactly I just sort of<br />
had my eyes closed' he replied to laughter from the court.<br />
A man was found not to have his horse under control. When brought to<br />
court he stated that he was subject to fits. He was fined and the judge<br />
noted that if he was subject to fits he should not be in control of a horse.<br />
Another was fined for leaving an unattended horse and cart. He told the<br />
magistrate he had called for a meal at the pub and left a man in charge<br />
of the horse. He was not aware that the man had then gone into the tap<br />
room for a drink.<br />
A man was accused of loitering on the footpath and causing an<br />
obstruction. He stated that he was talking to friends. The magistrate<br />
reprimanded him and said he should have moved when the policeman<br />
told him to do so. You CANNOT argue with a policeman he was told.<br />
Well you couldn't make it up could you.<br />
I have walked all this road but have found none of the marked<br />
milestones although a boundary stone without its original metal plate<br />
remains near the cemetery, and a couple of bench marks are visible on<br />
old stone walls.<br />
An interesting artifact on the road is the World War 2 pillbox built into<br />
the embankment near Little Nook Farm. A few years ago I had the<br />
privilege to talk to a lady who during the war had been a searchlight<br />
operator in the ATS. She informed me that this post was used for shelter<br />
for those operating a searchlight when bombs were falling.<br />

Villagers Of <strong>Norden</strong> Will You Go The<br />
Extra Mile For In Bloom?<br />
This year,once again , <strong>Norden</strong> will play a key<br />
part in the efforts of Rochdale Township In<br />
Bloom, when the Township competes in RHS<br />
Britain In Bloom. Judging Day for this prestigious<br />
event will take place in the last few days of July<br />
<strong>Norden</strong> Village will host the start of the Judging<br />
Route. There are a number of criteria against which<br />
our entry is assessed, but many of them are<br />
concerned with the presentation of our Village. Our<br />
entry will be judged on issues such as the<br />
presentation of residential properties and business<br />
premises , the cleanliness of streets and the state of<br />
preservation of local heritage features.<br />
<strong>Norden</strong> has made an excellent start with it`s efforts<br />
for <strong>2016</strong>: NEEVA has once again provided an excellent array of hanging<br />
baskets to enhance the whole of Edenfield Road. Paul Ellison and his Team<br />
at the Jubilee Park are sprucing up the area around the bus terminus and<br />
the uniformed organisations( Scouts, Guides and Brownies ) are continuing<br />
the refurbishment of their outdoor activity area next to St, Paul`s Parish<br />
Hall. Work is well under way, once again at Moss Row Community<br />
Allotments.<br />
For <strong>2016</strong>`s event, the Rochdale Township In Bloom Team needs<br />
you help.......<br />
If you live on Edenfield Road or one of the side -roads adjacent (or if you<br />
own business premises there ) can you spare some time to enhance the<br />
presentation of your Building ? Floral displays outside domestic<br />
residences are a particular favourite with the Judges .<br />
Will you please help us show your Village at it`s best for<br />
Judging Day?<br />
For further information about how you can help, please contact<br />

BIRTLE TRUST<br />
This organisation started forty years ago now and, to a greater and lesser extent, I have always been<br />
involved in it. (I was a child when I first became Chairman you understand). It was originally called “The<br />
Castle Hill Residents Association” and was formed in 1976 to fight the reopening of the quarry which is<br />
situated just behind the Church. The battle was won but we had to fund raise to pay a barrister as it went to appeal. After a short quiet<br />
spell, another owner applied to open the quarry again, so we changed the name of our organisation to “The Birtle Trust” to include all of Birtle<br />
and started the fight once more. This time it was a much harder struggle but the residents prevailed and we eventually had the Quarry downgraded<br />
to a derelict quarry which makes it very difficult for it to be reopened. The Trust doesn’t just try to<br />
prevent inappropriate development in the area, but it is a very fragile piece of our industrial heritage<br />
and residents, including the farmers, feel very strongly that we need to keep the area safe. Of<br />
course this is not always popular but if I had wanted to be popular I would never have become a<br />
Councillor. People love a trip out to Birtle and we have some great hostelries and they all benefit<br />
from being part of this lovely area and we welcome them. I feel the Trust’s main achievement is<br />
the planting of the The Birtle Wood. If you drive to the top of Castle Hill Road, straight ahead of<br />
you before you turn left or right, is our beautiful wood. It is on Bircle (the old spelling of Birtle)<br />
Church Land, so we worked together with the Church to plant the Wood. We received grants from<br />
various organisations, advice from all and sundry so we could plant appropriate trees and bushes,<br />
and indeed plants, for the area. And it has grown and developed and is simply lovely. And it is<br />
open for all to walk round and enjoy. We have a lovely memorial bench and also a plateau with<br />
a specially planted tree in memory of the young people who died so tragically over twenty years<br />
ago in the helicopter crash in Anglesy. The only survivor was a member of our congregation and<br />
they were all local children. Some of the trees are planted in memory of loved ones and for a<br />
small outlay anyone could buy a tree or a bush and have the name inscribed in our speciql book<br />
I think the wood is getting very full now but if you are interested in planting your own memorial<br />
tree, please enquire.One of our founder members, Peter Lee, was the spearhead of planting in<br />
Birtle. He died a few years ago, but during the years he was with<br />
us he organised planting of the corners of some of the fields to<br />
further enrich the area. Some of the landowners and farmers were<br />
really happy to be involved in this project and it is lovely to watch<br />
all the trees grow. As Chairman of the Trust at the moment, I realised<br />
that we are coming up to our AGM and some of our Committee<br />
members have been part of the Committee since day one. There<br />
have been many changes in Birtle, and new people coming to live<br />
with us to enjoy the area. We need this to keep Birtle alive, but we have a duty to our children to preserve this important area of great heritage<br />
so it is there for another forty years for us all to learn from, explore and enjoy.<br />
Councillor Patricia Sullivan, Chairman Birtle Trust<br />

Heywood 1940s Event <strong>2016</strong><br />
The blast tape is going up, the "camo" nets are being aired and the<br />
sandbags filled... yes you've guessed its time for the town to turn the<br />
clocks back 70 years to be iconic era that was the 1940s. There will be<br />
lots of boys toys, activities and entertainment for the citizens of<br />
Heywood of all ages. Planes such as the legendary Spitfire and<br />
Hurricane together with Heavy artillery,<br />
vintage cars and buses will be sited<br />
around the town on the day.<br />
The 40's were not just about war although it did<br />
take up half the decade. There were also<br />
many changes to fashion, fun and<br />
entertainment too. Our event also<br />
celebrates these changes and they are<br />
reflected in the costumes and<br />
performances that will be seen around<br />
the town throughout the event<br />
There will be live entertainment in and<br />
around the Market all day, an outdoor<br />
concert outside St Lukes and a tea<br />
dance at St James Church, Dance<br />
demonstrations outside Tillys Team Rooms. Hill Street car park<br />
will feature a military encampment together with a BBQ at<br />
Poole's Butcher.<br />
This year also sees the centenary of the Battle of the Somme<br />
and to commemorate the event we will feature an interactive<br />
exhibit together with the installation of two benches during a service<br />
at the Memorial Gardens.<br />
Weather permitting we should also see a fly past by a vintage Dakota<br />
Transport aircraft to add even more atmosphere to what has<br />
historically become the most successful day in the towns events<br />
calendar by far.<br />
Make sure you look out for posters, flyers and the highly popular<br />
souvenir handbook to keep up to date with times and venues of all events and<br />
other attractions that are being added daily. Tell your family and friends, they wont be<br />
disappointed !!! Mike Higgs – Trader/Co-ordinator<br />

Mille - Feuille of Asparagus and Mushrooms<br />
The joys of spring – English asparagus is in<br />
sheer abundance right now so go raid your<br />
local supermarkets. In this recipe I have<br />
served it with some sautéed mushrooms but<br />
alternatively replace with some spinach or<br />
even wild garlic at this time of year.<br />
For the Pastry 250g Puff Pastry<br />
Flour for rolling<br />
1 Egg yolk<br />
For the Filling<br />
25g Butter<br />
1 Small onion – peeled and finely chopped<br />
1 Clove garlic – peeled and finely chopped<br />
225g Button mushrooms quartered<br />
1 Bunch Asparagus Blanched<br />
For the Sauce<br />
50ml Dry white wine<br />
50ml White wine vinegar<br />
50ml Whipping cream<br />
115g Chilled butter – cubed<br />
1 Tablespoon chopped fresh parsley<br />
1 Tablespoon chopped from chives<br />
Salt and freshly ground black pepper<br />
Method<br />
Pre heat the oven to 190C.<br />
Roll out the pastry to a square about 20 x 20cm and 1 cm thick.<br />
Cut it into 4 equal triangler pieces. Put the pastry on a baking<br />
sheet, brush the top of each piece with the yolk and mark a<br />
criss cross design on the top with a small knife. Bake for 10 –<br />
15 minutes or until well risen and golden brown. Remove from<br />
the oven and leave aside until you are ready to use.<br />
Now make the filling. In a small saucepan heat the butter, then<br />
put in the onion and garlic and cook until they have softened.<br />
Throw in the mushrooms and continue to fry until they have<br />
cooked through, which should take no more than 10 minutes.<br />
Remove the pan from the heat.<br />
Now for the sauce. Heat a small pan, pour in the white wine<br />
and wine vinegar and reduce by half. Pour in the cream and<br />
again reduce by half. You should have about 6 tablespoons of<br />
liquid left at this stage.<br />
Now, over a low heat, whisk in the chilled butter, bit by bit,<br />
until it has melted and is thoroughly mixed. Do not allow this<br />
mixture to boil or the sauce will lose its creaminess and<br />
become thin and clear. Add the chives and parsley to the sauce,<br />
taste and season, then remove the pan from the heat.<br />
Slice the cooked puff pastry in half horizontally. Briefly reheat<br />
the vegetables and asparagus then divide them between each<br />
pastry base. Spoon the sauce over the vegetables the put on<br />
the pastry lids, Serve straight away.<br />

Healthwatch Rochdale<br />
The Health and Social Care system is, at the best of times, complicated. I<br />
suspect most people think of it as GPs, Hospitals and care homes but in<br />
truth it is much more than that. What is a clinical commissioning group,<br />
what are commissioners, what role has the Council got, what services are<br />
out there, what does health and social care integration mean? Getting your<br />
head round it is hard which makes getting your voice heard can be<br />
challenging.<br />
I am vice-chair of an independent organisation set up to be the borough’s health and social<br />
care consumer champion. We are here to gather and represent the views of you, the public,<br />
to make sure you get the best out of the services available to you.<br />
We challenge services to improve today and help shape them for tomorrow as well. But<br />
we can only improve services with your input. Without your views, we cannot represent<br />
you and make sure residents’ voices are heard. We are here to stand up for you and your<br />
family.<br />
We have a hard working and dedicated team, experts in engaging with the public and<br />
analysing the information get in.<br />
There has been a lot of activity and achievements in the last couple of months including<br />
our Meet the GPs events where Healthwatch Rochdale set up question and answer<br />
sessions with the local NHS decision makers. The sessions also looked at how the<br />
devolution of powers to Greater Manchester from government is transforming health and<br />
social care services. You can see everything we are doing by logging on to our website<br />
http://www.healthwatchrochdale.org.uk/ ; signing up to our newsletter or following us on<br />
twitter and Facebook.<br />
So please, come and share your feedback with us. We are here to listen and then<br />
challenge. Let’s work together to make sure the health and social care system serving<br />
Rochdale, Heywood and Middleton is the best it can be. We are based at The Lodge,<br />
Arrow Mill Queensway, Rochdale OL11 2YW. Office opening times are Monday to<br />
Friday 10.00am - 4.00pm. You can reach us on the telephone by calling 01706 249 575.<br />

months for the members<br />
of Cantare, R. Rochdale's<br />
foremost female voice<br />
choir, who we last<br />
featured in <strong>June</strong> 2015.<br />
An exciting joint concert last<br />
July with Greater Manchester<br />
Police Male Voice Choir at the<br />
RNCM, which showcased the<br />
world premiere of a specially<br />
commissioned piece, “Visions<br />
of Paradise” by Chris Roe,<br />

Michael Betteridge, the choir were proud to enter three choral classes in Rochdale<br />
Festival of Performing Arts and delighted not only to be awarded Honours in each<br />
category, but also to be presented with the Jim Noble Trophy for Outstanding<br />
Performance and invited to sing at the selected performers' concert at the Town<br />
Hall on 8th May. What a privilege and a pleasure! If you'd like to hear the choir in<br />
action, then the next opportunity is on Saturday 25th <strong>June</strong>, 7.30pm, at St<br />
Edmund's Church, when they'll be presenting "Birthdays" - a very special<br />
celebratory evening. Her Majesty the Queen is not the only person to be marking a<br />
significant birthday in <strong>2016</strong>! When it was realised that several members of the choir<br />
would also be celebrating extra special dates this year, the idea of the “Birthdays”<br />
concert was born. Expect a varied programme of favourite songs chosen by the<br />
birthday girls, plus scones, strawberries and fizz for a “picnic in the pews”, all in the<br />
magnificent setting of Rochdale’s Gothic-revival gem – a perfect summer evening’s<br />
entertainment. Tickets can be bought at the door or are available in advance from<br />
Rochdale Tourist Information Centre (Touchstones) or from Sarina Ellis (01706<br />
642471) priced £9, including summery refreshments. Accompanied children are<br />
admitted free. The choir is a friendly group and its members enjoy socialising<br />
together, as well as singing. In recent years, they've travelled to Bath to take part in<br />
the Mid Somerset Festival. However, this summer, in July, the choir are off to<br />
Oxford for a musical weekend. They'll relax, and take in the sights of this beautiful<br />
city. However, the main focus of their trip will be a joint concert with Blackbird<br />
Leys Choir, originally formed as "Ivor's Choir" in 2006 for Channel Five's<br />
documentary series "The Singing Estate".<br />

your special event, please check out their website<br />

From the<br />
archives<br />
The Carlton<br />
A<br />
Ballroom<br />
The 1930’s was a decade of change in the United Kingdom and Rochdale was no<br />
exception. Cinema attendance was booming and dancing was all the rage with<br />
dances at the Pioneers Ballroom, occasionally at the Town Hall and many others in<br />
many church halls and school rooms.<br />
In August 1935 there was a dance at the Ambulance Drill Hall featuring Tee Varnum and his band (admission<br />
2/-), at the Kings Hall in Littleborough or at the Lakeside Pavilion at Hollingworth Lake. It was a decade<br />
of widening cultural expectations and the town contributed to this by opening, in 1934, one of the best<br />
dance halls in the North West – the Carlton on Great George Street, just off Drake Street, the Observer<br />
noting at the time that ‘Rochdale will possess a ballroom the modernity .. unsurpassed by any other dance<br />
hall in the provinces.’<br />
The building, which previously had been an old wool scouring mill belonging to Kelsall & Kemp, was<br />
redesigned by J E Stott of Todmorden, the architects who also developed the Riviera complex in <strong>Norden</strong>.<br />
The front of the mill was pulled down and a façade and entrance re-designed in a minimal Art Deco style<br />
typical of the 1930’s.<br />
Embassy Amusements Limited took on the management and refurnished the Carlton in the latest style.<br />
From the entrance there was a box office, cloakrooms and a café with an ‘up-to-date Milk Bar’ open to the<br />
public all day. On the upper floor on three sides there was a balcony which accommodated 250 to 300<br />

people at small tables whilst below there was a dance<br />
floor (120 feet by 50 feet) of rubber-cushioned maple at<br />
the head of which was a stage, the curved back of which<br />
was decorated with gold leaf and edged by huge grey<br />
curtains. On the day of the opening, these were pulled<br />
back by uniformed page boys (white gloves and little<br />
pill-box hats) to reveal a band playing for the first dance.<br />
Though whist drives and private functions took place there, dancing was the main thing with bands such<br />
as Roy Fox and Joe Loss came up from London in the mid 1940’s to appear at the Carlton’s ‘Saturday Night<br />
at the Palais,’ appearing on-stage at 11.00pm and playing (air raids permitted) until 2.00am. Local bands<br />
were popular too with the George Roberts Band, Bob Sharples, Geoff Love and the famous Freddie Platt<br />
Band.<br />
After World War II dancing fell somewhat from favour, replaced to some extent in the 1950’s by the<br />
popularity of television although when Mecca bought the Carlton in 1956 they tried to keep the dancing<br />
tradition going. By the 1960’s however, it had a dual use as a<br />
dance and Bingo hall, eventually by the 1970’s only being used<br />
for the latter. In 1989 the Carlton closed following a fire and<br />
after some years of neglect it looked like the end. However, in<br />
1995 there was a revival with The New Carlton Ballroom, later<br />
the place becoming the ‘Liquid Rock’ nightclub but the place<br />
was eventually closed following an alleged shooting incident,<br />
a sad end to a great Rochdale institution.<br />
In 2007 the Carlton was demolished and is now a car park.<br />
If you have any memories of The Carlton, I’d be delighted to hear from you and add<br />
them to a growing Rochdale archive on the subject.<br />

CUT YOUR<br />
ELECTRICITY BILLS<br />
AND GET PAID FOR<br />
THE ELECTRICITY<br />
YOU GENERATE!<br />
Established over 25 years ago Electronica<br />
Systems are renewable energy specialists<br />
and amongst the market leaders, providing<br />
bespoke services to both the domestic and<br />
commercial markets.<br />
All the products that we supply are high<br />
efficiency providing significant environmental<br />
and economical benefits to the property<br />
owner.<br />
Our Solar Panels are the best performing due<br />
to the fact that they are supplied credible,<br />
ethical and established companies.<br />
Solar PV panels are amongst the most effective<br />
and popular means of renewable energy<br />
generation available and due to their simplicity,<br />
durability and efficiency – are being installed in<br />
ever increasing volumes. Even on a cloudy day<br />
they can convert the light into substantial<br />
amounts of electricity which can be used in the<br />
home – or exported to the national grid if not<br />
used. Electricity exported to the grid is charted<br />
by an export meter which ensures that the<br />
home owner is paid for the power they sell.<br />
PV Solar panel systems are also a guaranteed<br />
means of income thanks to the Feed in Tariff<br />
Scheme which pays homeowners a set rate for<br />
every unit of electricity they produce (whether<br />
it is used or sold back to the grid).<br />
Solar PV Panels can also be installed on<br />
commercial and industrial premises. Depending<br />
upon the size and generation capabilities of<br />
the PV panels, a company can greatly reduce its<br />
energy costs whilst also generating<br />
supplementary revenue through the Feed in<br />
Tariff Scheme. In addition to the financial<br />
benefits, the installation of a solar PV system<br />
also helps the organization get a step closer to<br />
attaining carbon neutrality.<br />
