Greatness lies, not in being strong, but in the right using of strength; and strength is not used rightly when it serves only to carry a man above his fellows for his own solitary glory. He is the greatest whose strength carries up the most hearts by the attraction of his own.

~~ Henry Ward Beecher

Fan-bearing Wood-borer beetle (Ptilinus pectinicornis) found on a gatepost at the edge of Miltonrigg Wood, near Brampton, 6 July 19.

 

This species is apparently common in the southern half of the UK, but elsewhere there appear to be relatively few sightings; in fact of the 784 records currently shown on NBN Atlas, only two are to the north of Newcastle! As previously noted Cumbrian data are no longer included in the Atlas, but presumably this species is not widespread within the county. Either way, it's certainly the first one I've seen!

 

Photo 1 was taken in situ with my bridge camera, and Photo 2 using the integral camera on my SX10D microscope at 20x magnification. It was measured at 4.5mm in length.

 

A stunning image of the species can be found here:

It now stands in woodland but there was probably a track leading from the grounds of Allestree Hall into the nearby meadows.

'Rostherne Villa'

The old home still shows its name on the gateposts and as a semi it was coupled with Carlton Villa arriving on the road around 1902. Home owners from the past would be Mrs. Helen Burns for 1909 and John Moore for 1939. Rostherne advised; hall with leaded light windows, two capital entertaining rooms, kitchen, scullery, three principle bed rooms, bathroom with separate w/c, two secondary bed rooms, box room and cellared throughout. Double bay windows facing a garden out front and a croquet lawn to the rear complete the amenities available.

 

'Carlton Villa'

The villa was a semidetached along with Rostherne it only appeared around 1905 and it is shown to have been the dwelling of Frank Taylor in 1909. Some years hence it belonged in the hands of Arthur Webb 1939. One of the last homes to still exist on the original road as it changed direction here into the old road.

Retirement village on Kincumber Street, Kincumber. The design is hereby awarded the Spikebot Seal of Approval for Lack of Tack.
