OPEN 7 DAYS - FREE PARKING - 100M FROM ASDA ROCHDALE
Welcome to
our July issue
Although Water Safety Awareness Week
took place a couple of months ago, it’s
still important during the summer months
to be aware of the danger of open water
swimming in remote locations with no
lifeguards present.
On page 43 Andy Dunham, Crew Manager at
Rochdale Fire Station, writes about the work
that some of the crews get up to in the area
and the fact that incidents in these remote
locations can cause a delay in the emergency
response.
There’s another fabulous walk from Geoff
Ogden, leader of the Milnrow Walk & Talk
Group, and designed for those who are keen
to take up walking to improve their health
and fitness whilst enjoying the beauty of the
surrounding countryside.
Reverend Janet Pitman writes about
St Thomas and St James after whom both
Churches in Newhey and Milnrow are named.
Thanks to Rachel Jones from Milnrow WI
for sending us yet another great recipe, this
month an ‘all in one pot’ Ratatouille, enabling
us to spend less time in the kitchen and more
time outdoors!
Until next month…

ADVERTISING FEATURE
Andy P Collins Wealth Management Limited
Intergenerational Planning
– These words mean many
things to many people, and this
is probably the most diverse
area of planning where I am
regularly asked to assist. The
baby boomers have undoubtedly
made asset wealth on property
and some may have inherited or generated wealth.
However, the questions they ask are “Will we run out of
money“ – “Can we pass our wealth to our offspring”.
Initially, simple planning such as Wills* and Lasting
Powers of Attorney, of which there are two – Health
& Welfare and Property and Financial affairs is the
starting point. I work with fellow professionals where
necessary to create these structures.
Every person has circumstances which are different,
which is why it is critical a full discussion takes
place. Following that start point, it is a matter of
understanding what you are trying to achieve with
all that you have, and then create a bespoke plan
that is flexible to meet any changing circumstances
i.e. cover home fees whilst protecting the estate,
having access to capital and protecting the estate.
Inheritance tax you choose to pay if you don’t use all
of the opportunities to mitigate it. Allowances such
as nil rate bands, Resident Nil rate Bands and annual
exemptions which are sufficient for most people to
achieve their outcomes.
Where more complex situations arise, I will look
to include any number of the following: PETS over
7 years and structures such as Business relief**,
Trusts, Gifting, Loan Trusts, Discounted Gift
Trusts, Charitable donations, The Rysaffe Principle,
Protection, Tenants in Common, Pensions and annual
exemptions. Increasingly we see changes to Gifts
with reservation and Deprivation of assets legislation,
but with careful planning and flexible arrangements
you can have your cake and eat it ensuring that
taxation is not the largest inheritor of your estate,
but your family are.
So you know what to do – Just ASK!
I help individuals, business owners and
Directors make better financial decisions.
I can’t change the events that shape your future,
however, I can ensure that you’re prepared with a
bespoke plan, and your resources are employed
focused on desired Goals.
As part of my understanding you as an individual or a
business, I review existing plans to check if they are
fit for purpose, and your current wealth is protected,
should any changes not be one you had planned.
So, if you don’t have a plan or just wish to check that
what you have in place is working with you towards
your Goal, then – Just ASK!
Andy is widely regarded as a Financial Services
business leader with a demonstrated history of
success at board level. His thirty plus years of
Financial services experience has enabled him to
draw on a wealth of knowledge and skills.
During that time, he has held Head of sales, Director
and Senior management roles with some of the UK’s
leading institutions.
I am locally based and offer planning in
the following areas:
• Preparing for retirement and in-retirement advice
• Investment planning
• Pension planning
• Protection for you and your family
• Inheritance tax and Inter-generational planning
• Investment planning for children/grandchildren
• Protection for self-employed, company directors
and key people
• Aspects of tax efficient business exit strategies.
The value of an investment with St. James’s Place
will be directly linked to the performance of the funds
you select and the value can therefore go down as
well as up. You may get back less than you invested.
The levels and bases of taxation, and reliefs from
taxation, can change at any time. The value of any
tax relief is dependent on individual circumstances.
*Will writing and Powers of Attorney involve the referral to
a service that is separate and distinct to those offered by
St. James’s Place and along with Trusts are not regulated
by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Water Safety Awareness Week
The week of 25th April – 1st May saw the
annual Water Safety Awareness Week
Campaign, undertaken with partners of
Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue
Service (GMFRS).
Paul Ellison had been speaking to local firefighter
crew manager Andrew Dunham from Rochdale’s
White Watch about some of the work the crews
in the local area had been doing the last couple
of weeks. Water Safety Awareness week is a
campaign the National Fire Chiefs Council have
run for a number of years. This is to highlight the
dangers of open water swimming as there aren’t
any lifeguards and the locations are often so
remote, which can create a delay in emergency
service response to the incident as often it is
difficult for those phoning incidents in to try and
pinpoint the locality of the scene and access.
Andrew Dunham is part of a recently formed Water
Safety Partnership group that has been set up
with colleagues from Rochdale Council, The Royal
Life Saving Society, United Utilities, The Canal and
Rivers Trust Authority, Greater Manchester Police,
and the Local Education Authority. The aim of this
group is to educate people and make them aware
of the potential dangers of open water.
There are a few key locations in the local area
that people like to go to cool off, but in reality, they
are exposing themselves to significant risk and
danger, so this is something that Andrew and his
fellow firefighters are trying to address. Crews
from Rochdale have been putting up leaflets and
posters in remote areas with the What3Words
locations on and the QR code so that people can
download the app straight from the poster – this
is a free app that anyone can download which
allows you to pinpoint your exact location to
within 3 metres. What3Words is now used on
every front-line appliance in GMFRS and is used
daily for all manner of incidents from road traffic
collisions to wildfire incidents. Its accuracy is vital
in saving time responding to emergencies allowing
crews to go straight to a specific location rather
than searching for somewhere from often vague
descriptions.
Andy Dunham said, “18 months ago, it became
noticeable that the number of water incidents
crews were attending was increasing significantly.
The majority of these seemed to be in remote
areas away from main roads often not easily
accessible for fire appliances. After the recent
wide area floods across the county over the last
few years, GMFRS has issued its firefighters with
dry suits and personal floatation devices so that
if/when we enter the water to carry out a rescue,
then at least we have the correct protective
equipment and training so that our crews can
carry out their duties safely.
GMFRS policy is that when attending a water
incident, crews have to be part dressed in water
gear before they leave the station. They then
have to try and locate the incident and carry all
their rescue equipment to the scene. Time is of
the essence in these rescue situations so clarity
around locations when phoning for help is vital and
literally does help to save lives. If you can download
and use the What3Words app, should you ever
need to make an emergency call, responders
can use your What3Words location and pass
this on to the appliances attending to make for a
speedy response and quick resolution. If you see
the posters around Norden village or across the
Borough, try the link and help to save lives!”
Paul Ellison added, “This is a fantastic, live saving
initiative by GMFRS and their partners, I would
like to thank Andy Dunham and his colleagues for
their outstanding efforts in educating people and
keeping them safe from harm.”

Milnrow Library Walking Group
PARK AND WALK NO 5
BEAL VALLEY
Here in Milnrow and Newhey we are
so lucky to be surrounded by such lovely
countryside.
Now that summer has arrived what could be more
encouraging than to get outdoors for a refreshing
stimulating short distance walk, designed
especially for those who want to start regular
easy leisurely walks for health and fitness value.
This walk is less than 2 miles (3 km) long, it can
be muddy in places after wet weather, so wear
appropriate footwear.
THE ROUTE
We start from the Bridge Street Car Park opposite
to the Tim Bobbin Pub.
Here the River Beal flows beside the car park,
disappears under Bridge Street to re-emerge from
Milnrow Bridge by the side of old cottages, Nos
2, 4 and 6 Bridge Street, formerly the site of the
original Milnrow Chapel of 1537.
Go down Ashes Lane (signposted public footpath).
On the left is a deep valley, the course of the River
Beal where horses are often grazing on the steep
sided field.
The lane, with a vast array of wild flowers in it’s
verges, leads down to a wide gate prior to the
original Ashes Farmhouse, painted white, before
you on the right.
Here a Memorial of a WW1 Soldier stands in the
foreground and a WW1 Tank is in the small garden
adjacent to Lily Street. Proceed up Kiln Lane past
the Old Vicarage (now St James House) to
Ashes Lane.

Go left through the waymarker signed access gap,
and down the single width path, leading to open
fields on the right where deer can often be seen,
and the River Beal on your left.
Continue along the river bank path, this section
can be muddy and slippery, so take great
care. Look out for wild life, Grey Herons and
Kingfishers, along this stretch of the River, and a
large variety of flora, wild flowers and ferns adorn
the path and river bank. The path ends at a stone
arched bridge over the river.
Keep left along the fence perimeter and head for
the very tall tree in the distance. Pass through the
access gate and onto Halliwell Street (signposted
bridleway).
Continue along the street with the fields to the left
and Thistlefield housing complex right, along a 3/4
mile section that becomes a tree lined lane, then
re-emerges back into Halliwell Street, to the Tim
Bobbin Pub and starting point.
Turn left over the bridge, then immediately first left
up a single width field path which brings you up to
an opening in the fence (and onto Firgrove Playing
fields.
Our Group
There are many benefits to be had by regular
outdoors walking, it is one of the most
important activities to do to improve your
lifestyle, well being, and stay healthy both
physically and mentally.
We meet at Milnrow Library every Monday
morning from 9.30 am leaving out at 10am
on separate walks around the Milnrow and
Newhey countryside. Our walks are free and
friendly, designed for people of all abilities,
and offer walking in safe and social groups
led by Volunteer Walk Leaders.
New walkers are welcome, as are children
accompanied by a responsible adult.

Update from St Thomas’, Newhey
and St James’, Milnrow
July is a good month for our parish churches here in
Milnrow and Newhey because in July we celebrate
our patron saints. I thought this month I would tell
you a little bit about the people our churches are
named after.
The patron saint of Newhey Parish Church, St Thomas, was
one of the twelve apostles, the closest followers of Jesus,
the ones he eventually called his friends. He acquired the
nickname ‘Doubting Thomas’ after the resurrection because
he was not present when the risen Jesus first appeared to the
disciples and was unconvinced until he met him in person.
He is mentioned by name in John’s gospel several times and
he seems to have been a man who was not afraid to speak up if he didn’t understand.
Thomas is believed to have travelled to India to spread the good news of Jesus to the people
there, he is also reported to have been to China and Indonesia. He was killed with a spear in
Chennai in Southern India in 72AD.
The patron saint of Milnrow Parish Church is St James the Apostle, sometimes known as James
the Greater because there were two apostles called James and he was the elder. James was
one of the fishermen Jesus called, he and his brother John worked in partnership with Simon
Peter and Andrew. When Jesus called them to follow him, they left the boat with their father
(Zebedee) and followed. James and John were known as ‘Sons of Thunder’ because of their fiery
tempers but they were also two of Jesus’ closest friends. James was the first of the apostles to be
martyred, killed in Jerusalem by the sword in 44AD on the instruction of Herod Agrippa.
James is the patron saint of Spain and one of the most famous walks of pilgrimage is that to his
grave at Santiago de Compostela in Galicia. In 2018, there were 327,378 pilgrims who claimed
the certificate declaring that they had completed the official pilgrimage, 62 miles on foot or 120
miles by bike. Happily, you do not have to walk or cycle that far to come to our St James’ church.
The present building was opened on St James day 153 years ago. In times past the church would
hold a service in the churchyard on the closest Sunday, carrying the harmonium out with them
to accompany the singing!
Patron saints are interesting because they are good examples of what the people who chose
them wanted their faith to be like. Whether you are more in tune with the passionate belief of
James or the questioning, truth-seeking of Thomas or some other favourite saint or role-model,
I encourage you to reflect on the way you express your faith (if you have one) or your personal
ethos. You never know who may be influenced by your example.
Revd Janet Pitman

From The Archives
LEO SOLOMON & THE ROCHDALE ART SCHOOL
Towns in this country have never
had Schools of Music or Schools of
Architecture but Schools of Art became
an important part of the civic landscape
from the 19th century in the United
Kingdom.
Many evolved from the Mechanics
Institutes, offering social mobility
or recreational education for a wide
population. They were opened at the
same time and in many cases alongside
museums and libraries and this remained
the case until the late 1980’s, 157 of them
in 1959 dedicated to the teaching and
learning of art and design. And this was
the case in all regions. Many Lancashire
and Yorkshire towns had its own school
of art, and these catered for those not
only going into art and design careers but
others with interests in music and poetry.
From the 1980’s though, art schools
were merged between towns or became
part of polytechnics and then university
departments, the majority closing their
doors on many fine buildings.
And one of these fine buildings was
the Rochdale School of Art. It shared
its space with the building of the old
Rochdale Technical School which opened
in 1893 between Nelson Street and Fleece
Street now occupied by a car park. The
building was extended to include the
School of Art in 1906. The area was
locally known as The Gank and its
development improved that part of town,
built as it was with red Accrington bricks
and with many fine features including
stained glass interior windows and
On steep slopes, the whole building had
numerous entrances on Nelson Street,
King Street, and Church Lane.
The first head of the School of Art was
Henry Barrett Carpenter whose book on
colour theory informed the curriculum,
but its heyday was after the second
world war when the country was looking
to rebuild in manufacture and the arts.
The School of Art offered weekend noncertificated
courses as well as foundation
and A level classes in conjunction with
Rochdale College but more than that,
the place caught the zeitgeist of the
1960’s with a vitality and productive
excitement around the place, camaraderie
between students and staff and a sense
of openness and creativity. The building
was a rabbit warren of rooms crammed
with work underway, the corridors like
exhibition spaces covering a wide range
of arts – film, textiles, photography,
sculpture, and fine arts – all represented
across the syllabus with music and poetry
also a part of the experience.
The staff at the School of Art was drawn
from far afield but there were a number
of local artists who also taught there.
Apart from the Rochdale Sculptors
which included Walter Kershaw, Peter
Wolstenholme, and Tony Smart, some
who worked or studied at the Rochdale
School of Art went on to national
and international careers such as the
photographer Elaine Constantine, the
artists Julian Smith and Jack Crabtree,
artist and fashion designer Stuart
McKenzie and art writer and curator
sculptured friezes over some of the doors. Jenny Lomax OBE.

Much of the prominence of the Rochdale
School of Art as a local creative force
and one that lasted for decades, can
be traced back to 1953 when Leopold
Solomon was appointed as Principal. He
took what he had learned as master-incharge
of the Barrow School of Art and
from a low point helped the Rochdale
school flourish, growing it from just eight
enrolled students to 190 full-time and
550 part-time students in a decade, with
twenty-six staff teaching a multitude of
art techniques from painting, sculpture
and drawing to lithography, typography
and silversmithing. Solomon knew Dylan
Thomas from his time in Wales and
became a good friend of L S Lowry, using
his friendship to have Lowry give advice
to the students in Rochdale. But he was
more than that.
but was a notable painter and sculptor
in his own right, casting a bronze bust
of L S Lowry and exhibiting nationally,
being selected for the prestigious Royal
Academy exhibition in the summer
of 1967. Rochdale School of Art, with
Solomon’s lead, established one of the
largest foundation courses outside the
then polytechnics and attracted students
from across the country, Leo Solomon
remaining principal of the college until
his death at the age of 56 in 1976.
The Rochdale School of Art however
met with a sad ending. A fire swept
through part of the building in March
1969, and much was lost although parts
were re-built, and the teaching continued
although later transferred to Rochdale
College. The original building closed in
1989 and was subsequently demolished,
making way for a car park. A terracotta
frieze, depicting spinning and metal
working was preserved and is now
displayed above the car park where once
stood an important part of the cultural
history of the town.
He was an effective and approachable
manager, writing “It is no use being
a demagogue in an ivory tower when
you are dealing with young, intelligent
people whose future is in your hands.”
During his time in charge, he was able
to balance management and his links
with the town’s Education Committee
with creativity, and he not only raised
the status and climate of the institution
If you have any comments about the
Rochdale School of Art, I’d be delighted
to hear from you and add them to a
growing Rochdale archive on the subject.

A Fundraising Event in
Memory of John Edward Smith
On Saturday 28th May a fundraising event was held at the
Cedar Tree in Newhey for the Brain Tumour Research Fund.
Thanks to everyone who helped and supported this very
worthy cause with gifts and donations, in total a whopping
£3150 was raised. There were cakes and coffee, a bottle
tombola, a mystery tombola, craft, and jewellery stalls as
well as a Grand Raffle.
The event was not only to raise money but awareness of this
dreadful disease which receives so little support from the larger
cancer support funds. The money was raised in memory of
John Edward Smith who recently died of this illness. We hope
that the money we raised will make a difference!
Finally thank you to everyone who came and supported us on the day.
Without your support we would never have reach the amount we did. Not only did we feel
gratified by the huge amount of money we raised but also the fact that this event brought
a small community back together to celebrate after the past couple of years.
If you enjoyed the event or want to support us again, please come along to our
next one in aid of MacMillan on 10th September at Butterworth Hall, Milnrow.
