Welcome to our

November issue

In this issue we have an update on the restoration

work at Rochdale Town Hall. As part of this, a

group of artists and collectives have been chosen

to do a number of commissions which you can

read about on page 41.

The winter season brings new challenges to our

villages and the darker evenings can encourage

opportunists. On page 46, local resident Nigel

Morrell suggests ways of preventing crime and

potential break-ins.

We are always grateful to WI member Rachel

Jones who as Bonfire Night approaches, has

once again has sent us a delicious Parkin recipe.

To accompany this is an article by Gary Heywood-

Everett who writes about how, before the

organised bonfire and firework displays which we

are familiar with, bonfires across the town were

opportunities for communities to come together.

If you have anything that you feel could be included

in the community pages, please do get in touch.

One more issue to go before Christmas so look

out for it dropping through your letterbox from

30th November.

Until next month…

that they are fully suds compliant allows water to naturally drain through the surface.

We guarantee that they will add real kerb appeal to your property and there is plenty of

choice with over 45 colours available all complimented with a range of different edges, from

a simple block edge to a granite finish or a resin border. To compliment your installation,

we also offer all aspects of landscaping from retaining walls to artificial grass to a sleeper or

fence panels and all done by one company with no subcontractors.

Between us we have over 25 years of experience in the groundwork and landscaping

industry as well as the laying of resin bound surfaces.

We offer exceptional quality and value for money providing full design and a written

quotation. A project manager will work with you from the initial design to the completed job,

taking and sharing photos to show all aspects of the construction of the installation and giving

you added piece of mind that the work is being carried out to the correct procedure. We

appreciate certain driveway companies can leave a bad reputation in their wake, however

here at Superior Resindrives customer satisfaction is our utmost priority.

We can guarantee that Superior Resindrives are designed and installed to stand the test

Exhibitions to get artistic makeover

at Rochdale Town Hall

A group of artists and collectives have been selected to

do a number of commissions for Rochdale Town Hall as

part of the building’s ongoing major restoration.

Their work will bring a new perspective to the town hall to help make

it a building for everyone.

Artworks will be created for several rooms throughout the building,

including the new Bright Hall, the Small Exchange and the Mayor’s

Parlour. The works are intended to bring contemporary ideas and tell

the stories that represent people and communities.

The commissions will be co-created with a range of local people from

across the borough. This will include pupils and students at local

schools and colleges and people supported by a number of

community groups.

The workshops started in September with a focus on mediums

including ceramics, print making, stained glass, textiles, drama, film

and costume. Each of those appointed specialise in these different

mediums and the end result will be the creation of unique pieces

of art for the town hall.

Councillor Janet Emsley, cabinet member for equalities, safety and

reform, said: “This is a really exciting announcement for the town hall.

“This group of seven artists and collectives we have put together will

work with the community to deliver inspiring art to be enjoyed by all

visitors to the town hall when it reopens in late summer 2023.

“I am really looking forward to what the co-creations produce and without doubt they will represent

the borough and serve to document the town hall for generations to come.”

The commissions are being funded thanks to the National Lottery Heritage Fund which has provided

£8.9m to the town hall project.

All the artists who are taking part have a fantastic array of skills and their projects are likely to include

new installations and stained glass, along with audio stories.

The seven artists and groups are:

• Alison Greyer who specialises in textiles, pattern design, printmaking and mosaics

• Beggars Belief who specialise in art, theatre and filmmaking

• Breaking Barriers who will be producing audio, film and photography

• Louise Watson who specialises in glass

• MayWild Studio who will specialise in a mixture of visual and traditional crafts

• Salford Slow Fashion who work with textiles, pigment and print

• Sally Gilford who specialises in print and textiles

Each piece of artwork will be bespoke and play to the strengths the artists have.

As one of the artists said about the work that is under way, creativity helps to strengthen the

relationship with the community and leave a legacy of artworks that can be enjoyed for years to come.

Update from St Thomas’, Newhey

and St James’, Milnrow

Whatever happened to November?

I’m sure it used to have its own character but now November is

the gap between Halloween and Christmas. In the church it is

the season of Remembrance, beginning with All Saints (when

we remember famous saints) followed by All Souls (when we

commemorate the saints who weren’t famous, but the people who

inspired us and those we love) and then Remembrance Sunday

(when we remember those who have died or been permanently

affected by war). Apart from this, November doesn’t seem to

have anything much going for it – unless you count my birthday

(which is hardly a widespread cause for celebration!). Oh, and

moustaches!

Perhaps we need to reclaim November from the ‘festive’ season.

We need to gather our strength for the winter and make space

for this unique month. Its true that the weather is often cold

and wet, and it is now that we start to really notice the darkness

encroaching on our evenings but there is nothing like a good walk

with friends on a crisp November day followed by a hot drink or

soup. I’m sure the Milnrow library walking group can offer some

ideas if that’s your thing, take a look back on all the great walks in

past issues of Streetwise!

Or maybe you could try a new craft – there’s always something

going on at the Albert Mill and it is a great way to make new

friends or have fun with the ones you already have. Take up

knitting or crochet and you could make some warm socks or

blankets to keep chills at bay now that we’ve all turned our

heating down! Doing something practical like this is good for your

health and doesn’t need to cost a lot of money. It can also have the

added advantage of being sociable, which means we can support

each other when life feels difficult.

Jesus spent a lot of his time healing people, often people for whom

illness meant isolation or rejection by society. God did not intend

for humans to live completely separate from one another, although

I know there is such a thing as too much company and we all have

our own different comfort zones on that one. In a world where we are all ‘doing our own thing’ I think

it is important, and Christ-like, to do some things together, to share with others and to laugh and cry

together sometimes. Most of all, it is important that nobody gets left out or forgotten.

Whatever you choose to do, I hope you find some fun this November and let’s keep looking out for

those who are less able to get out and about as winter approaches.

Revd Janet Pitman

Milnrow Library Walking Group

A TRIP TO HARROGATE

On Thursday the 15th of September, members

of the Milnrow Walking Group along with

friends and walkers from the Syke and Cutgate

walking groups set off by coach for Harrogate.

This time there wasn’t a planned walk, but we had

all been given plenty of information on places to

see and things to do. The coach picked up some

passengers in Rochdale before collecting the rest

of the passengers in Milnrow.

On arrival in Harrogate, we split into small groups

with some staying in Harrogate and some catching

a bus out to Knaresborough. One or two also

managed to find time to see something of both

places.

Those staying in Harrogate visited various parts of

the town including Harlow Carr RHS Gardens, the

infamous Betty’s Tearooms and some also joined a

guided tour of Harrogate.

Meanwhile the people visiting Knaresborough were

able spend time looking round the town, walking by

the river and visiting Mother Shipton’s Cave, where

petrified items can be seen hanging under the

waterfall, before heading back to Harrogate with

time to spare for a well-earned cup of tea and slice

of cake in one of the many tearooms.

We all met up again and boarded the coach for our

return journey which was full of chatter of tales of

our day’s activities with our friends. Passengers

were dropped off in Milnrow and Rochdale on our

return.

Our grateful thanks go to Barry and Carol King for

their efforts in planning and organizing the trip and

to our driver Rob of Robert’s Travel who drove us

there and back safely in his lovely coach.

Gweneth Smith (Walk Leader)

From The Archives

BONFIRE AND GUY FAWKES NIGHT

Before the control of the ‘organised’

bonfire and firework displays with

which we are so familiar, many

bonfires across the town were

opportunities for communities –

streets, families, neighbourhoods

– to come together and find

entertainment and good company

through food, the excitement of a fire

and fireworks. It was also a chance

for children to make a little money

on the streets.

As suggested earlier, until recently

bonfires after the second world war have

been local community events. They were

also a chance to make a ‘Guy,’ sit him

out on the street and ask passers-by for

money. There had been a tradition of

children doing this from the 18th century,

asking for a ‘penny for the Guy.’ The

quality of the Guy didn’t matter as it was

normally burnt on the bonfire anyway

but it was sometimes no more than a

brush steel with a jacket tied around it on

top of which was a balloon or cardboard

head with the familiar beard drawn on it.

Children would sometimes go door-to-door

asking for money after singing songs like

‘Guy Fawkes Guy’ or ‘Cob Coalin’:

The word bonfire comes from a Middle

English word ‘banefire’, which means a

fire for burning bones as ‘bane’ was an old

word for ‘bone’. Gruesomely, it was often

an occasion when the bones (and bodies)

of religious heretics would be burned. Until

recently, modern day bonfires, however,

were associated with Guy Fawkes Night

and the religious and political plot led

by the Catholic Robert Catesby to blow

up the Houses of Parliament in 1605.

Interestingly, there is an alleged local

connection to this plot in that Peter

Heywood (no relation!) who lived at

Heywood Hall was supposedly responsible

for the capture of Guy Fawkes when he

saw Fawkes about to commit the deed

and snatched the torch from him, thus

preventing the destruction of Parliament.

Whether that is true or not is disputable as

Heywood was in fact a magistrate working

in Westminster but was known for his

legal persecution of Catholics so would

have been sympathetic to the capture of

the gunpowder plotters.

your collection.

“We come a Cob-coalin, cob coalin, cob

coalin

We come a Cob-coalin for Bonfire day,

Fal-a-day, fal-a-day, fal-a-diddly-i-dum-day.

For down in yon’ cellar there’s plenty of

bugs

They’ve eaten our stockings and part of

our clogs

We’ll get a big axe and we’ll chop their

heads off

And we’ll have a good supper of bugs

heads and broth.’

Preparation for the bonfire itself would

go on for weeks with wood collecting

(which we called ‘bommy wood’) and then

setting guards to defend the wood from

other marauding children from nearby

neighbourhoods who were out to steal

Being brought up on Milnrow Road we

were conscious of boys coming from Tin

Town (near Hornets ground) who thought

nothing of fighting you for your wood.

Before the fire, if your family had the

money, you would go to a shop and buy

fireworks. The fantastic colours of the

fountains and the roman candles, the

pinwheels, the jumping jacks, the rockets

and the bangers would be laid out for sale

on the counter and you would pick the

ones you wanted and bring them home,

ready to ‘light the blue touch paper and

retire immediately’ for safety, not that there

was too much concern for it. Sparklers

would be waved about in the dark, rockets

would be set off from milk bottles and

either soar into the sky or hit nearby

houses and fall fizzing to the ground.

The evening of the bonfire itself usually

started after tea – about seven o’clock -

and people from the houses would gather

round and the fire lit. Soon there would be

a blaze and faces would be glowing in the

heat of the fire. People would set off their

family fireworks which would be watched

by everyone.

There was some sympathy for dogs and

cats on a night when booms and bangs

were frequent, animals often traumatised

indoors with the sounds. Communities

would come together for the food too.

Depending on what various kitchens

could prepare, this would consist of parkin

and treacle toffee, sometimes black peas

and – for those willing to get a hot face –

potatoes roasted whole at the edges of

the fire.

Always a busy night for the fire brigade,

bonfire night used to be a risky, sometimes

dangerous but colourful date on the

calendar, one which brought neighbours

together. Of late, the health and safety

regulations around fires and fireworks has

changed all of that and replaced it with a

safer, organised experience with people

at a safe distance from the action. As a

result of these changes and this ‘progress’

however, the history of the event is being

forgotten as is the loss of bonfire night’s

unifying of households in community.

If you have any comments about bonfire night, I’d be delighted to hear from you

and add them to a growing Rochdale archive on the subject.

Please contact Gary Heywood-Everett at garyheywoodeverett@yahoo.co.uk or

leave your comments by text or by recorded message at 07562752774.

You work hard to support your family and enjoy

life, so it makes sense that your money should

knuckle down too. This is where a little expert

advice can make all the difference

Our lives are busy and complicated. Families today

can be fragmented, increasing demands on our

time. You’d be forgiven for thinking that the latest

technologies should make things easier, but that’s

not always the case. In fact, information overload

can often leave us feeling overwhelmed and unsure

about which way to turn.

In so many areas, we rely on experts to point us

in the right direction. If your car breaks down, you

see a mechanic. If a tooth aches, you go to the

dentist. The same should be true of our finances.

Why wouldn’t we ask the experts and make sure

they’re being managed effectively?

Discover our holistic approach

We understand that everyone’s finances are unique.

So at St. James’s Place we strive to offer a long-term,

relationship-based service that focuses on what you

need, as well as what motivates and inspires you. It’s

this holistic approach that means we can then find

solutions that work well together and match your

attitude to risk.

So much financial choice can be bewildering.

We’re here to guide you and advise

on changes to the financial landscape

and the options available for you

Knowing that your investments are being managed

by seasoned professionals and that your worries are

our concern can be a huge relief. You can also relax

in the knowledge that we’ll be here to support and

guide you on every step of your financial journey.

We want to know you and your finances inside out

– and keep it that way. After all, we’ve learnt from

experience that the best wealth management

service comes via thorough understanding and

personalised, face-to-face advice. It’s what we’re

passionate about.

Here’s where we can we help

You can trust us with a number of financial solutions.

From a broad range of funds providing the potential

to grow your savings and protect them against

inflation, to pension advice – whatever your age.

We can also help you make the most of retirement,

find the best protection for you, your family and your

business, and advise on Inheritance Tax issues.

If you’re remortgaging, downsizing or buying your

first home, let us help you find the mortgage that

will work for you. Whatever it is you need, we have

your needs at our core.

We take the time to really know your

finances and find ways of making your

money work harder for you

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep

up repayments on your mortgage.

The value of an investment with St. James’s Place

will be directly linked to the performance of the

funds selected and the value may fall as well as

rise. You might get back less than you invested.

The levels and bases of taxation, and reliefs from

taxation, can change at any time and are generally

dependent on individual circumstances.

Get in touch

If you’d like us to help you make the most of your

hard-earned savings, give us a call. We’d like to

get to know you.
