News from Cadney
& Howsham
Like most places events in Cadney and Howsham have
been few and far between during the past few months
but we hope to restart our Monday morning coffee
mornings at Cadney church hall soon. Several people
brought their own mugs each week, and all snacks and
cakes were individually wrapped. Keep an eye out on our
Facebook page, Cadney and Howsham news, and we will
let everyone know when they are restarting. We had one
gentleman from Brigg who timed his daily walk to fit in
with the coffee morning so that he could have a seat and
refreshments with a chat before he continued on his way.
Plans are being drawn up to have another scarecrow
weekend over the weekend of Saturday 3rd and Sunday
4th July. This is a really fun way for everyone to join in
putting out scarecrows around both villages. We then
plan to hold a Street-Boot event on the Sunday (4th
July).
The village of Winteringham held a Street-Boot on
Sunday 2nd May and a spokesperson described it like
this: “For those of you unaware (of) what this is, it’s
basically where you put a stall out in front of your house
and fill it with the stuff you no longer want - you can
pocket the cash yourself or sell things for a charity.”
We have been without a vicar for over a year during
which time the Rural Dean, Fr. David Rowett, who is
also the vicar for Barton, South Ferriby, Saxby All Saints
and Horkstow, has been helping out by taking services,
answering our questions and generally offering support.
So this year I am calling my walk ‘Posh Frock 2, from our
church to yours’. On Saturday 24th July I will starting at
Cadney church, then walking to all the churches in our
group – Brigg, Wrawby, Worlaby and Bonby, then carrying
on to visit Saxby, Horkstow, South Ferriby and finishing at
St. Mary’s in Barton, the main church of the Rural Dean.
It is around 17 miles and I plan to do it all in one day,
wearing a ‘posh frock’ and walking boots, and hoping
that a few people will walk parts of it with me. I will be
setting up a fundraising page soon and will also have
sponsor sheets.
I plan to be in Cadney church hall helping out on the
weekend of the scarecrows and Street-Boot on the
3rd and 4th of July and will be happily collecting
donations or sponsors then. All money raised will go to
Cadney church funds for running costs, maintenance and
general upkeep to keep this beautiful building open.
The best way to keep up to date with any events or news
about Cadney and Howsham is to follow our Facebook
page Cadney and Howsham News.
Political Snippet - Division
Lobby
Brigg is in the Electoral Constituency of Brigg & Goole with Andrew Percy as its MP but some of the town’s
‘fringe’ residents are represented by other MPs. Those living at the end of Westrum Lane, Pingley Farm and
its adjacent developments have Edward Leigh, the MP for Gainsborough, while folks residing in Scawby Brook
have Holly Mumby-Croft, MP for Scunthorpe.
With its population of around 6000, represented statistically by one MP per 2000 people, does Brigg hold
some sort of record?
