D2284 Seen outside the shed at Heritage Shunter Trust

At Rowsley / Peak Rail

 

D2284 (Class 04) The very first ex BR loco from NCB Wooley Colliery near Barnsley to join the trust, beating the 01 into their collection by just a few weeks. She has been a very reliable performer over the ensuing years, until the rear output shaft on the final drive sheared. The cause of this has been attributed to a design alteration which didnt allow for any slippage in the fly cranks, and eventually sheared the said shaft. Very luckily a replacement shaft was sourced, but entailed buying the entire carcass of the industrial loco the shaft was in!! Six years or so has elapsed working on this sporadically until a final push over a two year period, saw the loco's repair completed. Usually to be found in the Brightmore shed. Now basically in running order (unless you know different!), but yet to be tried on guardsvan shuttles in anger. I believe the loco is eagerly awaited by a few "haulage enthusiasts".

Not far behind the yellow Ford was the one that it had replaced - one-time Salopia of Whitchurch Ford / Supreme RUJ 354R had been with Andy Jacklin since 1996, but for this season had not moved very far, to Mark Brightmore in Reddish.

 

Belle Vue stadium, 2 July 2000.

 

The Grade II* Listed St Mary and St Laurence's Church located in the market town of Bolsover, Derbyshire.

 

The church is mediaeval, dating from the 13th and 14th centuries, with the Cavendish chapel of 1624, a rebuilding after a fire in 1897 by Louis Ambler and a further restoration after a fire in 1961–62.

 

The church was closed for restoration from early in 1877 which took place under the supervision of John Brightmore Mitchell-Withers, architect of Sheffield. The chancel arch was rebuilt, adding an organ and chapel. The chancel was completely renovated. The floor was laid with tiles and the seating was renewed. The roofs were repaired and covered by red Staffordshire tiling. The work was carried out by Shillitoe and Morgan of Campstall, Doncaster.

 

New heating apparatus by Stuart and Smith of Sheffield was installed, with gas lighting by Hydes and Wigfull of Sheffield. The bells were recast by Taylor of Loughborough, a clock provided by Smith of Derby, and the organ enlarged by Foster and Andrews of Hull. The total cost of the restoration was around £6,000 (equivalent to £4,749,900 in 2021).

 

The church was destroyed by fire in January 1897 but fortunately, the Cavendish chapel of 1624 was saved. The church was rebuilt by the architect Louis Ambler starting 1897 and was consecrated by the Bishop of Southwell in 1898.

Grade ll listed.

 

Thornbridge was part of the estate of the Longsdon family of Little Longstone and was held by them from the C12 until 1790, when James Longsdon sold it to his business partner Andrew Morewood, a Manchester merchant. Morewood began to rebuild the house in the Classical style, his son John Morewood continuing the work which he complemented with a modest park. John Morewood was succeeded by his brother, George, and after his death, by his son-in-law, James McConnell, who in 1859 sold it back to the Longsdons. The Longsdon family retained much of the estate but put the Hall and its grounds up for sale, these being purchased by John Sleigh, a Leek manufacturer. In 1871 Sleigh sold the Hall to Frederick Craven who commissioned the architect John Brightmore Mitchell-Withers to rebuild the Hall in the Jacobean style, with stained glass windows by William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones. In 1896 the Hall was again sold, this time to George Marples, who immediately enlarged the estate and commissioned Charles Hadfield of Sheffield to alter the Hall, add stables and build lodges on the boundary of his new park. He also laid out formal gardens around the Hall to designs by Simeon Marshall. When Marples died in 1929 the estate was sold to Charles Boot of the construction firm Henry Boot. Boot embellished the Hall and gardens with an assortment of artefacts acquired during the course of his business, hence the presence of balustrading, urns and a fountain from Clumber Park, Nottinghamshire, and marble statues which came his way while working on a land reclamation scheme in Greece. When Charles Boot died in 1945 the Hall was purchased by Sheffield City Council, who developed it as a teacher training college and later a conference and education centre. The Hall was put up for auction in 1997 and was bought by a private purchaser.
