UPDATE ON WORK IN ST. MICHAEL’S CHURCH, KIRKBY MALHAM.

We are just over ¾ of the time that we said the church would be closed, and

whilst lots of work has been done, it is quite difficult to judge if we are ¾ of the

way to completion.

It is possible now to give you some idea about what the church will look like

when it is finished.

There are 65 new LED lights which are fully installed; these will be finally

adjusted now the scaffolding is down. Even with this high number of lights, the

total power consumed when all are on full power will be less than we were

consuming with the old lights. The lights are fully dimmable, and should give us

appropriate lighting for all uses of the church. There are now path lights to

improve our safety when the church is used on dark evenings.

Painting of the plaster is almost complete, but don’t expect to see a big change

here since the colour chosen is as close to the original plaster as possible. What

you should notice is that there are now no blotches on the wall, and technically,

the surface is well bonded.

Changing the radiators is probably the biggest single job, and is well underway,

but not yet complete. You will have to look carefully to see the many radiators

under the seats, but you should feel the benefit of them. What you will see are

brown coloured radiators in all the places of the original radiators, plus a

number of extra ones. There are probably twice as many radiators as are needed

today for the oil fired boilers, but in planning for the future, these will give the

opportunity to install a ground source heat pump which will only operate at a

much lower temperature than today’s boilers. Don’t be surprised by the shiny

copper pipes connecting the radiators, they will soon go dull and blend with the

woodwork.

Construction of a second toilet with disabled access is well underway. This

occupies part of the vestry, and has necessitated lowering the floor to give

appropriate access. The plumbing will soon be installed, and the final electrical

connections made.

We have opened the door in the Lady Chapel to give us a second exit. The hope

was to refurbish and re-use the original door, but it is not sufficiently sound to

do that, so we will have a new door. An advantage of this is that it will be easy

to make it draught proof.

Judy Rogers

Finally, we have improved the ground drainage at the west end of church to

help reduce the low-level damp in that area.

Whilst significant changes to the church have been made which should make it

more comfortable to use, the essential character of the church remains

largely untouched. We hope you will like what you see.

FROM THE ARCHIVES:

The Annual Report from the Vicar in April 1880

The past year has witnessed the most important event in our local Church

history the present generation in this dale has known, – namely, the

Restoration of our Old Parish Church. It has been a true restoration, for it

has brought back the Church, as nearly as could well be managed, to what it

must have been originally. Those who knew the building two years ago see a

change in the general internal appearance which makes them think that there

must have been an almost entire re-construction. But if they who worshipped

here three hundred and fifty years ago could look in again, they would see

very much what they remembered, except that the pews – those we call old, as

well as the new ones, – would be novel to them. This is a very satisfactory

characteristic of the work. It has not been the re-modelling, after modern

notions, of a venerable piece of architecture, but a bringing it back, with the

least possible amount of re-construction, to its first state, and to a condition

of comfort and stability. Even the square pews, which it was thought well to

preserve for old association’s sake, have been made wonderfully convenient

without altering their shape or position. The restoration, in short, on the

whole, is a great success. Although we were not all quite of one mind at the

beginning, as to what should be done, I do not think that any one will now

regret that the large fine old Church was not made to give place to a small

modern one, or will be otherwise than gratified with the general result.

AIRTON WI JULY AND AUGUST MEETINGS

It was a lovely evening in July when we gathered together for our annual

dinner. As in previous years, this was held at Coniston Hall and, as in previous

years, we were very warmly welcomed and very well looked after. As usual, the

food was delicious and plentiful, the chat was continuous and lively, and the

evening was enjoyed by all. A huge thank you to Norma for so ably organising the

event.

In August our group came along to my home to listen to a talk from Heather Slater

about her time as a nanny to two children in Saudi Arabia. She worked for a

member of the Saudi royal family, Prince Al-Waleed Bin Talal bin Abdulaziz al

Saud (the name rolled off Heather's tongue but we needed a few goes at

it!) Heather had spotted the advert for the job in 'The Lady' magazine; she

applied and went for a series of interviews in London. She didn't get the job at

first because she didn't know how to plait hair, apparently a prerequisite for the

job as the young princess had extremely long tresses! After a few months and

much practice plaiting lengths of wool, Heather was called back for a second lots

of interviews, this time in Paris and this time she successfully secured the

position. Initially travelling out on a five year contract, Heather's main

responsibility was for Khalid, the seven year old son of Waleed but when the

nanny who looked after the daughter Reem suddenly left (she did not like living in

Saudi), Heather looked after both children. Heather told many stories of the

extensive travels she undertook with the family (regularly to South of France,

Paris, the States etc, using the family private plane and yacht); the people she

met, including the arms dealer Adnan Khoshoggi; her experiences within these

encounters; how she spent her off-duty time (golf on a desert golf course, coffee

mornings at the Embassy, Last Night of the Proms in an airport hangar, and so on);

and the courteous and generous manner with which she was treated by all the

family. She enjoyed life there so much that she stayed for an extra two years. It

was an interesting evening and generated many questions not only specific to

Heather's talk but also about life in general in Saudi Arabia.

On to September! Next month we will be inviting our fellow WI'ers from Malham

to join us at the Quaker Meeting House barn to hear local artist Bev Hicks talk

about her work and the inspirations she draws on to produce the pieces. We will

also be getting out the encyclopaedia to revise in preparation for the Annual WI

quiz, so watch this space to find out how we get on!

ASHLEY'S FARM

The summer has gone smoothly, but as always seems to have been a

whirlwind of activity. We managed to get the sheep sheared in good time,

with enough dry spells of weather to keep getting some done. Unfortunately

I am told by other farmers that the Swaledale wool will be practically

worthless this year when I take it into the Wool Marketing Board in Bradford

to be sold. An over supply on the world market seems to be the problem.

The lambs have now been weaned from their mothers – in Yorkshire we call

this ‘speaning’. The sheep are all trailered up onto the limestone pastures

on Malham Moor, where they can have a good rest in anticipation of going to

the ram again. The lambs are split into males (wethers) and females

(gimmers) and stay on the land near home so that I can keep a close eye on

them and start to prepare them for sale.

With the male lambs this is quite straightforward. The priority is to keep the

lambs in good health by giving them regular worm and vitamin drenches,

making sure that any lame feet are treated and that they have a good supply

of quality grass to eat. Every couple of weeks I weigh the male lambs to pick

out those that have the right body condition and weight of 45kg, which

means they are ready to be sold for meat. This is a process I will go through

until all the male lambs are sold, hopefully by Christmas time.

With the female lambs the job of preparing them for sale is much more time

consuming and intense. The breeding sales for mule gimmer lambs are held

in a four week period in September across the country. We usually sell half

of our female lambs on Tues 5th September at Skipton Auction Mart, followed

by the other half a week later at Hawes Auction Mart. The practice is for the

female lambs to be ‘dressed’, which is basically a process of beautifying

them to make them look at their absolute best for sale. This begins by

clipping any wool off their bellies, to make them look taller and more

feminine. Next, about 10 days before the sale we will clip the hair off the

top of their heads, and the wool from around their necks, sharpening up

their appearance and giving style! This is an incredibly time consuming and

back breaking job, but it really does transform the appearance of them. At

the same time each lamb is given two matching tags which carry her own

unique flock number. The lambs are then dipped on two or three different

occasions to colour their wool a nice deep golden brown. This colour on the

8

wool helps to highlight the striking black and white colour that a mule should

have on its head. We then draw the lambs into small lots of between 10 and 30,

by matching lambs together based on their size, face markings, wool and overall

quality, so that a buyer can purchase a uniform pen of lambs. Finally, in the two

days before the sale we wash all of the lambs faces to make them sparkle, with

the best 50 also getting their legs washed. Some of the gimmer lambs will go to

local farmers, but many will go further afield and we have regular buyers from

Fife, Devon, Norfolk and Wales.

Calving has now finished and all the calves have been tagged and registered on

the national database, the ‘British Cattle Movement Service’. This enables their

movements to be recorded throughout their life and provides national data on

breed popularity, cattle numbers etc.

It is important to keep up with worm treatments for cattle at this time of year, as

they can be prone to ‘husk’ or lungworm. This can cause severe respiratory

problems, especially in younger cattle in their first grazing season. The bull is

back with the cows, ready to give us the next batch of calves in approximately 9

months time. This, combined with the drawing in of the nights and the impending

sheep sale season tells me that we will soon start the farming year all over again.

NATIONAL PLANT MONITORING SCHEME

A big thank you:

The third season of the National Plant Monitoring

Scheme is well underway with volunteers up and down

the country going out to visit their squares. A huge thank

you to everyone who helped to promote the NPMS over

the past two years, we now have over 1100 volunteers taking part as well as

a network of 20 NPMS Mentors. Lots of our volunteers report having heard

about the scheme via their parish council so we are very grateful for your

hard work.

Results from 2016:

Our latest newsletter is available:http://www.npms.org.uk/sites/

www.npms.org.uk/files/newsletters/NPMS_%

20Newsletter_Spring2017_FINAL_v2_0.pdf

The NPMS dataset is freely available via the NBN Atlas.

More help please:

There are still lots of squares available for surveying so we would be hugely

grateful if you can use your communication channels to promote the scheme

again. The live map on the NPMS website shows the squares that are

available: http://www.npms.org.uk/square-near-me-public?dynamic-

return_all_squares=true

We particularly need to promote the scheme in remote areas, so if you know

any groups that like to spend time in remote places then please do pass the

message on.

A reminder of who we are and what we need:

This scheme is a partnership between Botanical Society of Britain and

Ireland (BSBI); JNCC; Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (CEH) and Plantlife

and is backed by the government. The scheme will recruit and support

volunteers to survey 5 plots in a kilometre square close to where they live.

The plots will be surveyed twice a year. The kilometre squares to monitor

have been identified by stratified random sampling. The plants have been

chosen as indicators of the health of individual habitats. There are 3 levels

volunteers can participate at depending on confidence and knowledge and

support will be provided both through training; web and telephone.
