Parish Council Meeting 21st November 2007
The following items were discussed:
The proposed siting of a
seat outside the Methodist Chapel – this was deferred to the next meeting; Land
Registry; and a donation to Gertrude Homes Renovation Fund. ‘No Smoking’ signs are now required to be put
up in the two bus shelters. Fly tipping
was reported in Coploe Road.
Allotments – the
Chairman reported that, as the original preferred site for the allotments was
in abeyance, he had now been offered the use of a field behind the Cemetery as
a possibility. Would interested parties please let the Parish Clerk know their
views.
Bonfires –
Following a recent incident when the fire brigade was called, we have received
the following advice from the Environmental Health Division:
You are asked to kindly note these
recommendations:
·
DO NOT burn damp grass clippings or ‘green’ material, as
this creates thick smoke.
·
DO NOT burn any oily rags, rubber, plastics, damp garden
waste or other materials, which would inevitably create heavy smoke or toxic
fumes.
·
DO NOT light a bonfire when your neighbours have washing
drying, are out enjoying their gardens or have windows wide open.
·
DO NOT light bonfires one hour before dusk or leave them
burning overnight. Choose the time of
day and weather conditions that will cause the least inconvenience to
neighbours.
·
DO NOT leave your fire to smoulder for long periods.
·
DO advise your nearest neighbours before you light a bonfire,
so they can be prepared for any minor inconvenience that may arise. DO burn
material quickly in small quantities so the minimum amount of smoke is
created. An incinerator makes this much
easier.
·
DO choose your bonfire site carefully, well away from trees,
fences and windows. Have a hosepipe and
buckets of water handy, just in case.

152/07 Planning applications
received from SCDC:
S/1981/07/F – Dormer
Windows – Frogge Street – Mr & Mrs N Malone - Approve
S/1914/07/F- Amendment:
Parking area enlarged to provide 2 spaces, gates added to access and design of
pedestrian gate & trellis altered – Abbey Street – Keith Mitchell Building Consultancy Ltd. Comments sent to SCDC: “Ickleton
Parish Council’s reservations were caused by the plan going for a minimum size
of parking bay when there is scope for the parking area to be a little
wider. The plans indicate a 1.5m border
at the side. If some of this were given
up for parking space this would allow a critical amount of room. It is a question of squeezing two cars in or
being able to park them (and get in and out of them) more easily.”

CHRISTINGLE SERVICE
This
year we have a Christingle Service on Sunday December 16th at 4 p.m.
and we‘d love to see you there. This is a great opportunity to get ‘in the
mood’ for Christmas, sing some carols and be reminded of the Christmas message.
The service is particularly popular with children, (in fact the sweets on our
Christingles rarely make it out of the church building!) although of course
everyone is most welcome. A collection will be taken during the service for the
work of the Children’s Society and afterwards everyone is welcome to mince pies
and mulled wine or juice at Norman Hall courtesy of Caroline and
Julian Owen and family. We also hope to have some activities for the younger
children.
If
you can’t make the 16th, don’t despair - there will also
be a Christingle Service at Duxford on December 9th and at Hinxton
on Christmas Eve.
And
finally, can you remember what the different parts of the Christingle
symbolise? The orange represents the world circled with a red ribbon to remind
us of God’s love and Jesus’ blood shed for us. The candle reminds us that Jesus
brings light into the world, and the fruit and sweets remind us of God‘s good
gifts to us. Mandy Jeffery
CALLING ALL MEMBERS
OF THE CHURCH ELECTORAL ROLL
If
you would like a free pass for Ely Cathedral please sign up on the list which you will
find on the pillar table in Church by December 9th. This pass is valid for three years, so no
more applications until 2010! Hilary
Rule
PARISH COFFEE MORNING
The next coffee morning will be on Tuesday 4th December 10.00
a.m. - 12.00 noon. Since it's coming up to Christmas we'll be having
mulled wine and mince pies, as well as the usual goodies. Hope you can
all make it - newcomers are very welcome to come along and join us.

NOTES FROM HINKLEDUX RECTORY
By the light of a candle
When
I christen a child, the very last thing that happens in the service is the
giving of a lighted candle. It is a special candle and the idea is that it
should be lit each year on the anniversary of the christening to celebrate the
child’s ‘Church birthday’. The words that go with the presentation are:
You
have received the light of Christ; walk in this light all the days of your
life.
Shine as a light in the world to the glory of God
the Father.
Candles
have a unique place in our social history. They were the only form of lighting
in homes which could afford them until the middle of the 19th
century (when the first houses had gas lighting). Sir Joseph Wilson Swan
(1828-1914), who invented an early light bulb, wrote: ‘The days of my youth
extend backwards to the dark ages, for I was born when the rushlight, the
tallow dip or the solitary blaze of the hearth were the common means of indoor
lighting. In the chambers of the great, wax candle, or exceptionally a
multiplicity of them, relieved the gloom on state occasions; but as a rule, the
common people, wanting the inducement of indoor brightness such as we enjoy,
went to bed after sunset.’ And it’s surprising to think that we’ve actually had
domestic electric lighting for less than a hundred years.
These
days, most of us first meet candles on birthday cakes, ready for us to blow out
and "make a wish" (though I think I still have a box of Price’s
candles somewhere ‘for emergencies’). Decorative candles are popular for
providing the atmosphere for a candlelight supper, for a relaxing soak in the
bath (so I’m told!) and for ‘warmth’ to look at on a frosty winter night.
Embraced by almost every faith, creed and nationality, there is something
special about the solitary flame of a candle. In public life, people of all
faiths and walks of life will join together in a candlelight vigil to grieve,
or come together in prayer.
So
it’s not surprising that candles play an important part in church too. At our
services there are always candles on the altar. Many churches have a special
place to light a candle for remembering a departed loved one or someone who is
in need (a votive candle). In December the candles of the Advent ring are lit
each Sunday as part of the countdown to Christmas. And one of our special carol
services features the candle in the form of a Christingle (‘Christ-light’).
Our Christingle service is
based on the centuries old custom of the Moravian Church when families gathered
to welcome the coming of the Christ-child. The children were given a special
orange in return for their gifts of food for the poorer families in the parish
- and by the light of the candles alone they sang their favourite carols.
The
climax of the service comes when children, mums and dads stand round the church
in a great circle, everyone with a lighted Christingle and the church is
plunged into darkness. And in the darkness the children sing ‘Away in a
manger’. It somehow encapsulates all that one hopes for from ‘the season of
goodwill’ and I’d like to think that even the most hardened and cynical of
hearts might be moved by the occasion. The light of the candles in the darkness
speaks of hope in a world of pain and fear and hurt. Come and receive your
Christ-light this Christmas!

COME AND SING
If you enjoy singing and would like
to take part in a special performance in the village, then this is for you.
Please make a note of it now, and spread the word among your friends.
The PCC have asked me to run a 'Come
and Sing' day in Ickleton Church on Good Friday next year (21st March) and we
shall be performing ‘The Crucifixion’ by John Stainer.
Although this is a well known work,
there's a lot to learn, so we are having several choir rehearsals before the
day itself when we'll be joined (hopefully) by plenty of other singers.
Chris Anderson has kindly agreed to
play on the day and for practices. Practices arranged so far are as follows:
Friday 4th January 6.30 p.m. in church
Friday 11th January 6.30 p.m. in church
Friday 18th January 6.30 p.m. in church
Friday 29th February 6.30 p.m. in
church
Friday 7th March 6.30 p.m. in church
Friday 14th March 6.30 p.m. in church
If you are not familiar with the
piece and would like extra time to learn it, then please feel free to come and
join the choir for these practices. You will be made very welcome, and copies
of the music will be provided.
On Good Friday the choir and all the
other singers will meet to rehearse in the afternoon, then have a break for tea
before the evening performance.
This won't be a fundraiser for the
church and attendance will be free but we shall ask singers and audience to
donate generously to a retiring collection for the children’s charity ‘Coram’.

MACMILLAN COFFEE
MORNING
I
have just received a lovely letter from Martin Clunes, thanking us for raising
£102.06 This would never have been
possible without the generous kindness of the Methodist Chapel Trustees who let
us use their Chapel for free. Dear
Carol Turton and Helene Wood both helped and lots of generous people turned
out, despite a miserable day.
To
everyone I give grateful thanks for helping
to raise so much money. Ruth

4 VILLAGES ORCHESTRA SEEKS NEW PLAYERS
4
Villages Orchestra - 4VO - is a new exciting orchestra drawn primarily from
musicians living in and around the four villages of Ickleton, Duxford, Hinxton
and Great Chesterford.
4VO meets every Thursday evening from 8.00 p.m. at the Methodist Chapel, Abbey
Street, Ickleton and is open to all instrumentalists living in the area. It's
geared towards people who are at least grade 4 standard or who have been
playing for at least four years. The music is light, mainly themes from films
and shows, with the occasional popular classic thrown in. Whether you play a
stringed instrument, woodwind or brass, all players are welcome.
If you would like to know more, please contact Nigel or Jackie Bennett or
email: nigelbennett@hotmail.com. Better
still, just grab your instrument and a music stand and turn up! Nigel
& Jackie Bennett
DEATH
We
are sorry to record the death on 18th October of Mrs Betty Webb,
aged 95, who lived at Well Cottage, Church Street from 1975 to 2003.
Whilst
in Ickleton, Betty and George (who died in 1995) became involved in several
village activities, including the Village Hall and British Legion, and were
regularly seen walking their dog around the village.
Betty
kept in touch with Ickleton by receiving the ‘Icene’ each month during her
final years living at Kensal Green. David

ICKLETON SOCIETY
Open Day Between 40 and 50 people came
along and enjoyed our Open Day in the Village Hall on 13th October. Thanks to everyone who brought something for
the ‘Show and Tell’ – there were some really interesting things on show with
fascinating stories behind them. The
quizzes proved very popular, particularly Andrew Shepperd’s unusual photos of
buildings around the village, some of which were unexpectedly difficult to
recognise. As usual the display of
village archives attracted a lot of attention, and some of the documents were
well used to find the answers to questions about events in the village years
ago.
Theatre Trips
We have started what we
hope will be fairly regular trips to theatres in the area. A small group of members thoroughly enjoyed
an excellent production of ‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ at the Arts
Theatre in Cambridge on 8th November, and there will be another
outing to see ‘The Gondoliers’ on 1st December. We hope to arrange a trip to the Theatre
Royal in Bury St Edmunds in the New Year.
The Society makes a small subsidy towards tickets for members, so it’s
worth joining!
New Year’s Day Walk As usual the Society will be arranging a walk on New
Year’s Day morning. Look out for
posters advertising the time and meeting place nearer the time. If you need help keeping that resolution to
take more exercise, are trying to get rid of a hangover or calories from the
celebrations, or just want some fresh air, then this is the event for you. Everyone is welcome, including dogs, though
they must be on a lead.

IMPERIAL WAR MUSEUM DUXFORD'S SERVICE OF REMEMBRANCE
On Remembrance Sunday the Imperial War Museum, Duxford held a very special
service of remembrance. There was a 2 minute silence at 11.00 a.m. and a wreath
laying ceremony at 12.15 p.m. Following the service, 24 members of the
3rd Battalion, Royal Anglian Regiment, were presented with service medals,
having just returned from a six month
tour of duty in Kabul.
There was
also a wreath laid at the Royal Anglian Regiment Museum in the Land Warfare
Hall which was opened in 1996. The chapel on site was also open, with readings
and prayers.
The exhibitions are complemented by
smaller, personal items from letters and diaries to, perhaps the most poignant
of all, a simple pair of British Army boots worn by an unknown soldier during
the First World War. “These serve to remind us that, no matter how
technologically
advanced
warfare may become, wars are still fought by people."

GREAT CHESTERFORD &
DISTRICT GARDENING SOCIETY
The
November meeting started off on a sad note when we held a moment’s silence in
memory of Eleanor Daniels who passed away on November 3rd. Eleanor
had been a Committee Member for 18 years and during that time served as
treasurer for 14 years. A donation from
the Society will be sent to The Arthur Rank Hospice.
Members
were reminded to hand in their Dobies’ Seed orders before the December meeting
if possible.
The
guest speaker was Nick Hamilton from Barnsdale Gardens, who showed slides of
trees and shrubs for winter interest.
The
next meeting will be a talk on ‘Alpines’ by Angela Whiting. The best bloom
competition will be a seed head.

GERTRUDE HOMES – a big
thank you
There’s
been a tremendous response from the village, and from former Ickleton
residents, to the Gertrude Homes renovation project appeal. The amount raised so far has reached £6,000,
and the trustees are very grateful for donors’ generosity. This support has been very helpful in our
negotiations to raise loans, and at the time of writing we are optimistic about
securing substantial loan financing. We
have chosen the contractor and, all being well, the work will start early in
the New Year.
Applications
now invited
Although
completion of the renovation will take several months, Ickleton United
Charities is now inviting applications from people interested in living in the
homes. Two of the Gertrude Homes have
three good-sized rooms plus kitchen and bathroom, with the middle home having
two rooms. They will have full central
heating, double glazing and be fitted with modern kitchens and bathrooms. To be eligible, applicants should have
reached retirement age and live in the parish of Ickleton. In considering applications, the trustees
will also take account of other relevant personal circumstances such as
infirmity, in line with the charity’s rules.
Please note that the Gertrude Homes provide accommodation for people
living independently - they are not sheltered accommodation and there is no
warden.
Anyone who is interested and wishes to be considered, or wants further information, should contact the Hon Secretary of Ickleton United Charities Jos Flitton at 1 Abbey Street, Ickleton, CB10 1SS,.
WELCOME TO…Neville Young and his son Michael, who is 10.
