18th Annual Barton Bike Night –

The committee is well
underway organising one of
the biggest Bike Nights in
Europe – Barton’s own unique
annual ‘Bike Fest’ based on
the same successful format
as in previous years staged
around the many town centre
streets closed to general
traffic for the night.
We are pleased to receive financial support from the Town Council and commercial sponsorship from
Wren Living as a main sponsor along with the pubs, cafes, food outlets and local businesses supporting
the event.
Barton Rotary, Barton Lions and Barrow Rotary along with local residents
are once again marshalling with professional cover supplied by TSS
Events of Lincoln.
North Lincolnshire Classic MC are providing some live action staging the
very popular Trials Display in the Cottage Lane car park along with many
trade stands around the streets selling and showing motorcycle related
products.
Queen Street will host the very popular show of Classic and Vintage
bikes that attracts many visitors both young and old. North Lincolnshire
Council’s Mayor and the Town Mayor will be attending, judging and
presenting a trophy for Best Classic Bike on show.
We are looking forward to a great night and expect several thousand
visitors attending Barton to enjoy this free community event run by
volunteers.

Barton Rotary Club
A “ Crisis Box”, to help future victims of flooding
and designed by the Beverley charity Real Aid, was
shown to Barton Club members by cyclists from the
Rotary Club of Beverley during a rest stop at
Waters’ Edge on their tour of the 47 local Rotary
District Clubs. The box contains items which victims
need to get their homes clean and safe after the
flood water has gone. The boxes will be stored at a warehouse in
Beverley and will be available for Rotary Clubs to arrange
distribution in their areas. Essential
equipment is also available on loan,
including dehumidifiers, jet washers,
counter-top cookers and fridges to
help homeowners to get back to
normal as quickly as possible. The
Cycle Ride was organised to raise
funds for the project.
Barton Rotary Club

area near the Transport
Interchange, not covered
by North Lincolnshire

areas near the footpath
and banks of the Haven
on the way to Tesco,
produced 14 bags of
rubbish. Seven more bags

Club President,
John Fagge. They
have been sent to be re-furbished in
prison workshops and then given to
people in the Third World and within the
UK.
John said “It is amazing how many old
bikes people have in their sheds and
garages that they will never use again
and we are very grateful for the many
bikes we have been given. Very poor
people in many areas will now benefit
from these”. John is still collecting bikes
and can be contacted on 01652 618615

Waterside Food Festival
Barton’s second Waterside Food Festival takes
place this year on Sunday, August 10 along the
Ropewalk Promenade.
Following on from the success of the King
Street Food Festival held in June, the
Waterside Food Festival continues the theme
of the Food Festival held last September on
Barton’s waterfront which attracted around
3,000 people despite the wet weather.
The Food Festival, organised by the town’s
Tourism Partnership, will include around 30
stalls featuring food from local producers
including eggs, cheese, meats, breads, fruit
and vegetables and preserves.
We are not your average
Accountants so if you are looking
for a friendly, refreshing, efficient
local service then look no further
(home visits available).
There will also be demonstrations in Ropery
Hall from Nigel Brown of the Nigel Brown
Cookery Academy based at The Ropewalk and
Jenny’s Jams of Lincoln.
The Waterside Food Festival opens at 10am
and continues until 4pm.

BARTON CIVIC SOCIETY
People crossing the footbridge to Maltkiln Road over the
Haven will have noticed that the patch of ground there is
looking more presentable. A group of us removed an
enormous quantity of rubbish from the area, and so far
it has stayed reasonably clear. However, we feel that a
bin installed here would help persuade those inclined to
lob their cans, bottles etc. over the railings to dispose of
them more responsibly, Barton Town Council has
agreed to supply a suitable bin. At our request, the
supermarket trolleys deposited in the Haven have also
been removed by Tesco, which is now looking at ways of
securing them so that they are not removed from the
premises. However, the unkempt state of the banks of
the Haven continues to be an eyesore, since neither
North Lincolnshire Council nor the Environment Agency
is prepared to take responsibility for this. We have
raised the matter with our MP, Martin Vickers, who has
told us that there isn`t much in the circumstances that
can be done. A somewhat dispiriting outcome!
At a meeting of the Barton Town Council Environment
Working Party held in February, it was suggested by
Cllr. Keith Vickers that the Civic Society investigates
what can be done to improve the area in front of the Coop, which is at present looking rather shabby.
Accordingly, we have looked at this and sketched a plan
for creating a small shrubbery, breaking up the wall area
with climbers, planting a new tree in place of one that
has died, replacing the seats and varying the

monotonous expanse of tarmac with a more attractive
surface. We will present a scale plan to Barton Town
Council in due course.
Other activities include the mounting of a poetry
competition by our Heritage sub-committee in
conjunction with the History Department at Baysgarth
School, the continued opening of 51, Fleetgate to visitors
and a rolling programme of public meetings.
Three further open days for 51, Fleetgate are scheduled
for this year: on 27 July, 14 September and 29
November. Our AGM, at which Geoff Bryant will speak
about Dr. Tom Kirk`s Wartime Diary, takes place on 18
July. Subsequent events and meetings also promise to
be well worth attending: a coach trip to Darfield to visit
the Maurice Dobson Museum, on 15 August; a talk by
Diane Brian on the story of the Bennett Steamship
Company, on 19 September; an illustrated lecture on the
Historic Buildings of Hull by David Neave, on 17
October, and a talk by Chris Bailey on the Barton
Territorials and the 1/5 Lincs. Battalion in World War I,
on 21 November.
All our talks take place in the Assembly Rooms,
beginning at 7.30. Admission for Society members is
free unless stated otherwise. The charge for nonmembers is £2. If you would like to join the Society,
please contact our chairman, Richard Clarke, at 1, Sluice

We need your support!
St. Mary’s Church is already preparing for its annual
Operation Christmas Child campaign and are appealing
for your support.
Operation Christmas Child is one of the Samaritan’s
Purse appeals which sends gift filled shoeboxes to
children in need. The suggested gifts need not be
expensive, and can include everyday items which we
take for granted such as soap and toothpaste…the small
contributions which we make can have an enormous
impact on the lives of children who receive them. Each
and every box also provides the priceless gift of hope.
There are various ways which you can help:1. Fill a shoebox with simple gifts
2. Knit – hat, scarf, gloves, puppets, bags etc.
3. Donate individual items which can be put with other
people’s gifts to make complete boxes
4. Make a financial contribution which will be put
towards postage and the purchase of gifts
We are holding a Shoebox Celebration Service at 9:30am
on Sunday 16 November where we will give thanks for
the gifts and talents of all those who contribute to the
appeal, and dedicate the shoeboxes as they begin their
journey to needy children around the world. Please come
and join us if you are able!
Further information and resources will be available at the
back of the Church from late July, or you can contact Julia
on 07717761392 email [email protected]

We’ve got time for you….
At Smith & Walker Optometrists we know how important your vision is to you, that is why we routinely
book a full half hour appointment for our patients.
This not only allows time for a comprehensive eye examination, but you time to discuss any visual
concerns you may have, possibly migraines, or light sensitivity, as well as any specific optical
requirements you may have such as reading music, computer use, craftwork or sport. We take time to
consider your visual requirements to give the best optical advice.
We are able to assess your visual fields, differentiate signs of disease from natural ageing and
photograph the back of the eye. We explain the relevant findings to you and you will have time to ask
any questions that you may have.
With something as important as your eyesight, we understand you should never feel rushed.
For information or advice call into or telephone the High Street practices at Barton or Winterton.
Appointments are available throughout the week and late on Monday evenings.

This year’s season of Performance in the Park,
organised by the Barton Tourism Partnership, will
take place at two venues, Baysgarth Park and the
grounds of nearby Bardney Hall.
This year only two of the Performance dates are
held on the traditional Sunday afternoon with one
being held on a Saturday and the fourth on a
Thursday evening.
In July there are performances by Bash Street
Theatre on Sunday, July 6, in Baysgarth Park and
at the same venue, on Saturday, July 19, the
Equity compliant Illyria will be performing Roald
Dahl’s George’s Marvellous Medicine.
Live theatre at Baysgarth Park comes to an end on
Sunday, August 24, with the Storytellers’ Theatre
Company performing the Emperor’s New Clothes.
Before that, on Thursday, July 25, Bardney Hall’s
grounds host Illyria’s performance of Gilbert and
Sullivan’s The Pirates of Penzance in a concert
which starts at 7pm.
Tickets to see the Bardney Hall performance cost
£12 while the remaining performances at
Baysgarth Park all start at 2pm and are free.
BARTON AND DISTRICT HISTORY GROUP
Since we last reported, our society has become installed in its new venue in the St. John HQ, and those who have
joined us there seem to have been well pleased with the place. It is sufficiently spacious, the black-out works well,
the kitchen facilities are excellent and it is warm.
The society is in good shape. At the moment we have seventy members, though we also have a good number of
non-members attending meetings as well. However, as one member of our committee felt recently that he had to
stand down, we would very much like to recruit a replacement. Anyone out there who is interested, please come
forward.
We have had two meetings so far this year, one for Hugh Willmott who gave an update on his excavations on the
Thornton Abbey site, the other by Chris Bailey who related the histories of some of the men who served in one or
other of the Lincolnshire regiments in World War I. Both talks were well-attended and in their different ways first
-class – and they were both firsts, neither having been given previously to another group.
By the time this goes to press, we will have paid a visit to the church of St. Lawrence at Thornton Curtis, this
conducted by Geoff Bryant, one of our foremost local ecclesiologists, and heard a talk given by Stuart Sizer on the
Wold churches. Two further meetings will complete our season of presentations: on 25 September, Richard Clarke
will give a talk entitled `Chalk Quarries & the Whiting Industry in the Barton Area`; on 30 October, Brian Peeps
will speak to us about `Transport in and around Barton in the C.20th.`
Admission to our talks is free for members, but there is a charge of £2.50 to non-members. The membership is
£5.00 for the year and anyone interested may join at the door on the evening of one of the talks or by contacting
our membership secretary, Linda Brown, at 11, Highfield Crescent, Barton-on-Humber, DN18 6AQ (tel. 01652
637935).

The Barton Living Memorial Trust
We would like to report on an excellent day on Saturday 22nd February 2014 at Baysgarth
Museum for the dedication ceremony of the new plaques for the missing names on the cenotaph
in Barton. The Service was conducted by the Rural Dean David Rowett and the lesson read by
Mrs Margaret Sidell. The event was attended by the then town Mayor, Councillor Janet Oxley
and Consort John Oxley along with the then Mayor of North Lincolnshire Council, Councillor
Peter Clark and his Mayoress, Mrs Carol Clark and 80 relatives of those who gave their lives and
those who returned. We would also like to thank our sponsors on the day, Mr J Andrew, Benson
Butchers, MD Signs, Barton Lions Club, Barton Rotary Club, British Legion, Mr & Mrs B Clipson,
Rev Mrs B Shucksmith, Mr & Mrs Simpson, the estate of Mrs Shirley Paul, Lindsey Oil Refinery,
Barton Civic Society, Mr & Mrs P Davis, Lloyds Band and St Matthew’s Lodge. Please note the
exhibition for this is ongoing at the museum and is well worth a visit.
Hello
A small group of us walk in and
around Barton for an hour most
mornings. Would you like to walk
more but just not keen on doing it
on your own? In that case you
might like to join us.
We meet at 0900 on weekday
mornings at the junction of Pasture
Road, Pasture Road South and Butts
Road. Some of us (but not all) are
over 65 so power walking is not a
feature! We walk at a reasonable
pace to wherever the mood takes us
and on the way put the world to
rights. There is no obligation to
come on a regular basis, it is simply
a matter of turning up on the day.
Please do feel free to join us or ring
for more information.

Unexpected memories of World War
One come to Barton
As we all know 2014 marks the centenary of the start of what
became known as ‘The Great War’ and memories of that
momentous conflict can still be found in the most unexpected
places. My wife and I are collectors (and daily users) of Indian
Tree crockery and when our friend Sue Thompson, a
volunteer at the Hospice Shop in Priestgate, rang to tell us of
the arrival of a lot of such crockery we dashed round in the
hope of finding new pieces. What immediately took our eye
was a smallish, squat teapot which seemed at first glance to
have had its broken spout replaced with a metal stub. Whilst
fearing that we had wasted our money we nevertheless
bought the piece and carried it home. Closer inspection
revealed that the metal spout had always been there whilst
on the base we read DUNN BENNETT & CO.LTD.
BURSLEM, ENGLAND
STATE MANAGED
HOTELS
CARLISLE
Having done my National Service at the massive ammunition
depot still in operation at Longtown just outside Carlisle I
knew that all the pubs in the area were nationalised but had
not heard of ‘State Managed Hotels’ so we headed for
internet and Wikipedia - and as usual there it was.
moved supplies around the site which had its own coal-fired
power station. Cordite - the explosive ingredient used in
shells and bullets - was the main product on the site and
eventually a massive 800 tons was manufactured weekly. The
19,000 workers at the site (many from Ireland and 60%
female) were prone to spend an inordinate amount of their
money on alcohol and in 1916 the government, fearing that
inebriated workers and ammunition production were not a
good ‘fit’ and that the thousands of young women working at
the site should be directed to more ‘suitable’ leisure activities,
nationalised all the pubs, hotels and breweries in the Carlisle
area where many of the munitions workers lived and drank.
Many pubs as well as three of Carlisle’s four breweries were
closed down and those which remained were often suitably
redesigned by the government’s ‘State Management’ officials.
In those pubs which remained in business opening hours were
cut, prices were fixed, advertising was banned and the
alcoholic content of the beer was reduced. Between 1916
and 1919 drinking in rounds was prohibited - talk about
today’s ‘nanny state’! Although the munitions factory closed
at the end of the War Britain’s first Nationalised Industry
continued in operation and was not privatised until 1973.
Presumably realising that teapots are prone to lose their
spouts some foresighted government official had ordered that
Carlisle’s nationalised hotel teapots should have short
unbreakable metal spouts and further requested that the
knobs on their lids should not stand proud thus enabling them
to be stacked in piles one on top of the other. So, there
sitting in the Hospice shop in Barton was this most interesting
reminder
of
‘The Great War’
which
teapot
now fronts our
display of Indian
Tree crockery.
Not long after the start of World War One the British army
began complaining of a disastrous shortage of shells and
other ammunitions on the Western Front. To meet this need
in November 1915 work began on the building of Britain’s
biggest munitions factory just to the north of Carlisle. When
fully operational it stretched for some 9 miles from Longtown
in the east through Gretna to Eastriggs/Dornock in the west
with four great production sites and two new towns - Gretna
Geoff Bryant
(‘A munitions town’ to house 20,000 people) and Eastriggs as well as many wooden huts to house single workers to
accommodate the well-paid workers and their families. One

Thanks were extended to everyone who works in the tower. Father David and Geoff will liaise about a suitable date for
blessing of the new ropes. Joan will set up a Twitter a/c for the St Mary’s ringers which will give greater communication
with other ringing organisations.
Ringing during April took on an extra dimension during the installation of a new west window and grills being fitted to the
south and west tower windows. The work was followed by cleaning of the ringing chamber during Holy Week when there
was no practice night. Linda, Rose and Geoff have carried out routine maintenance of the bells which included checking and
tightening the nuts holding in the clappers.
Saturday 5th April saw the St Mary’s ringers set off on a day out to the Newark area; we were joined by friends from Burton
Stather, Cambridge, Chelmsford and Salisbury to ring in the four towers of Southwell Minster, Upton, Balderton and
Coddington. A most enjoyable day was rounded off with dinner in Lincoln on the way home.
New ringers, Clive and Katie are making good progress.
The bells will be rung to mark several occasions during the coming weeks and months, on Wednesday 2 nd July they will be
rung to welcome visitors to the ringing chamber during Bike Night and on Wednesday 9 th July the bells will be rung to mark
the 300th anniversary of the passing of the Act of Longitude which enabled Parliament to offer a prize of £20,000 to anyone
who could solve the problem of keeping an accurate record of time at sea when crossing lines of longitude. John Harrison,
who lived in Barrow-upon-Humber, claimed the prize with his famous chronometer.
The bells will be rung fully muffled on 4th August to mark 100 years since the beginning of World War I. Ringing the bells
fully muffled is not done very often and usually reserved for the death of a sovereign but it was felt that this was an
important enough occasion to honour all those who went to fight and particularly from Barton.

Hi all
I'm Councillor Jon Evison, the present

Baysgarth School Trips Spring Term 2014
Skiing trip
This year, the
Baysgarth School Ski
trip visited Sestriere
in Italy
which was the
venue for the winter
Olympics in 2006.
Fifty six
pupils and eight
staff braved the
twenty one hour coach journey, but it was worth every
minute.
The snow was great, the food was great and as always the
pupils of Baysgarth School were fantastic; exemplary in fact. A
disco, snow tubing, swimming and quiz night were topped off
with a great presentation night with the instructors.
The ski trip in 2015 to Austria is currently being advertised.
course in the picture postcard Ullswater area of the Lake
District.
Twenty-three pupils were accompanied by two staff on the
trip, where activities undertaken included kayaking, trapeze,
mountain walking and abseiling, amongst lots of others.
Despite overcast weather and ice-cold waters, it did not
dampen the spirits of the team, who displayed nerves of steel
and endless courage in tackling the challenges presented. The
weekend was thoroughly enjoyed by all involved, with the
students being described as a ‘credit to Baysgarth’.
Miss Fretwell and Mr Cook.
Business and Humanities Trip to France
A cross-curricular excursion to the exciting city of Paris was
organised by Mr McClane and Mr Bee. Trips to the Eiffel
Tower, a bus tour around Paris by night, the StadeFrance and
the Palace of Versailles were on the itinerary, culminating in a
fun trip to Eurodisney.

Barton-upon-Humber Allotment Society
Update
What a beautiful spring we have had this year!
Everything in the garden is doing so well. My wife's
flag irises have had a fantastic display this year, there
were five different colours. The oriental poppies were
early as well, so it looks like we are in for a good
year.
Down on the allotments there are a number of new
plot holders, and they all seem to be good gardeners.
The plots are looking quite good at the moment and
there seems to be a real buzz about the place. More
ladies are now plot holders so we are getting a bigger
variety of both fruit and flowers, also fruit trees as well
as the standard vegetables so when you visit us in
June you will see colour and variety in abundance.
Over the past two to three years the society
committee have had a lot of maintenance work done,
like putting hardcore on the central road to make it
more mobility friendly, also a new security fence along
the front of the site, plus a new hedge of black thorn
bushes to encourage wild life which in turn helps our
crops. Then there were the old gates, decorative but
falling apart so we asked a local firm J.W.STAMP
engineers to install new gate posts then repair and
improve the main gates while retaining the original
centre, then hopefully that is it. As you know all this
comes at a cost, so the society is very grateful for the
grants we have received from BARTON LIONS,
NORTH LINCS COUNCIL as well as society funds
which every plot holder subscribes to. Without them
none of this work could have been done. I would like
to say thank you all very much.
The next event is the Horticultural show on Saturday
the 16th August 2014 and early indications are very
good. Because it is an open show we get exhibitors
from villages and towns in the surrounding area. I do
encourage the young and the not so young, where
ever you live, to come to Barton on show day.
Gardening, as I have said before, is the best way to
keep fit, eat healthily and enjoy the company of other
plot holders. This is a society Barton should be proud
of and support in any way it can.
Well I am now off to do my good deed for the day and
help to tidy up the garden at 51 Fleetgate. It seems
it's in need of some T.L.C. so if you have an hour to
spare any time get in touch please.
Back to the show, if you need Schedules or
information about the show then ring the show
manager on 01652-632677 or the secretary on 01652635663. Look forward to seeing you on show day.

Autumn Programme at

Old favourites return and new acts are welcomed in
the autumn programme at Ropery Hall.
China Crisis play for the first time at Ropery Hall in
October in support of their first album of new
material in 20 years, “Autumn in the
Neighbourhood,” while in September the venue
welcomes John Otway and Wild Willy Barrett, the
English folk singer-songwriter duo and slightly
anarchic folk rock combo who merge humour,
sentimentality, storytelling and fierce musicianship
into a great show.
The same month Beverley Craven will be making a
welcome return as will Snake Davis who also returns
with his band, The Suspicions, at the now annual endof-year show.

September also sees Sam Sweeney of Bellowhead
paying tribute to the 100th anniversary of the start of
the Great War by telling the story of a fiddle he
bought in 2009 but was actually made, but never
finished, by a Leeds luthier in 1915 who was killed
during the battle of Messines Ridge in 1917.
Discovery of the history behind the fiddle inspired
Sam to create a multi-media performance telling the
incredible story of the fiddle which took nearly 100
years to complete, to mark the 100th anniversary of
the start of World War I.

Emergency Flood Boxes
After a visit from two members of the
Rotary Club of Beverley, we plan to put
together an "emergency flood box." This
box would contain many of the items
required for the first stage clean up.
These would be held in stock until
needed and supplied free of charge to
residents in our area in the event of any
further flooding. Boxes would be funded
by ourselves and delivered to your door.
A cycle ride is being planned through
Yorkshire and Lincolnshire to raise funds
to purchase these boxes, stopping off in
different locations throughout our area.
Dates will be submitted as soon as they
become available.

gave a demonstration on how a
defibrillator worked: this machine saves
lives and we were all very impressed. As
