Sibfords History Society - Bess of Hardwick Hall
2023-10-19 19:30 - 21:30 | Main hall
Bess of Hardwick is one of the most fascinating women of the sixteenth century and her most famous building, Hardwick Hall in Derbyshire, survives as a fine example of Elizabethan creativity, magnificence and pride. By a series of well-made marriages, she rose to the highest levels of English nobility and became enormously wealthy. Bess was reportedly a shrewd businesswoman, increasing her assets with business interests including mines and glass-making workshops.
This talk outlines Bess’s remarkable life and then will briefly touch on the architecture and contents of Hardwick Hall, surely her lasting monument.
Dr Gill White formerly worked for the National Trust as a curator/collections manager at Hardwick Hall. She now works as a freelance lecturer and teaches at Oxford and Leicester.
Doors open at 7.15 p.m. and the talk starts at 7.30 p.m. Free to members, visitors £3. Refreshments follow the talk.

Community Meeting to discuss Main Street Parking and Access
2023-10-17 19:00 - 20:30 | Main hall
The following note has been sent out to residents:
Dear resident of Bonds End Land or Main Street,
You are invited to join us to discuss Main Street Parking and Rye Hill Farm Access at 7pm on Tuesday 17th October 2023 in the Village Hall
Over the years, the topic of parking in Main Street and Bonds End Lane has been a regular talking point with limited space, an increasing number of cars, and the need for everyone to have access to their properties, including farm traffic.
There continue to be periodical issues amongst parishioners in this part of the village and the Parish Council has agreed that we would like to try and help find ways of improving things, if possible.
We would like residents of Bonds End Lane and Main Street to join us to talk through the issues, identify possible solutions and agree any next steps to be taken by residents and/or the Parish Council.
We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible.
If you are unable to make the meeting, please feel free to contact James Garstin or Alan Berks by email with any issues or suggestions you would like to raise.
Many thanks,
James Garstin and Alan Berks
Sibford Gower Parish Council

Horti meeting - Butterflies
2023-10-11 19:30 - 21:30 | Main hall
Martin Gascoigne-Pees is coming to talk to us on our local butterflies and how to attract them to our gardens. Martin is a keen lepidopterist, a wonderful wildlife photographer and knows whereof he speaks. His talk should be great and informative and useful to all those of us who mourn the lack of butterflies around. Is there anyone else out there old enough to remember when a summer car journey produced windscreen butterfly carnage?
Doors open at 7.00 for refreshments, the talk starts at 7.30.
Non-members always welcome, £3 per head.
