rd--~~=-"""".THE BROKEN SPECTRE

Recently the media have beenpromoting sensational stories of ghostsecond !A'arId War aircraft spotted flyingsilently over the Derbyshire moors.Anyone is entitled to the belief in thesupernatural, but personally I wouldrather accept the hard facts that theseplanes met their unfortunate fate on theactual crash dates-

fllaybe nature can playa real handin producing many stranger-than-fictionoddities. For example, have anyreaders ever seen a Brocken Spectre ?These remarkable phenomena are confinedsolely to hill country where acombination of sunshine and low cloudenclosing a hanging valley creates agiant shadow and rainbow effect. Hereyou can see your own reflection throughthe mist. Where a coloured ringcircles the shadow, this effect is knownas a 'Glory'. What is so amazing youcanwaV8 to yourself across the valley.These strange freaks of nature werefirst observed on the Brocken Hill inGermany, hence the name. I firstwitnessed the Brocken Spectre whilst ona camping holiday at Nant Peris (LowerLlanberis Pass, Snowdonia) in 1980. Incompany with two friends our walkingprogramme was to bag a few peaks aroundthe G1yder group and locate severalaircraft crash sites from my mountainrescue War days. A perfect day as weascended the huge bulk of Elider Fawr3,029 ft. (now the base of the mountainis dominated by the new Dinorwic PowerStation and attracts many tourists).

Our next summit was Mynydd Perfedd2.664 ft., ta search the steep gulliesfor the remnants of two Avro Ansons thatcrashed in early 1944. The SnowdoniaNational Park Authority have upheld apolicy of removing most crash sites, forthey class the aircraft as an eyesore on

the landscape, plus many museums havetaken their share. Fortunately manysites are in remote areas and intact.I believe that these sites should beleft alone as a tribute and memorial togallant a~rcrews.

We continued along the ridge nowoverlooking the Nant Ffrancon Pass tothe shapely peak of Foel Goch 2.726ft., then the steep screes of Y-Garn toview pieces of undercarriage from theB26 Marauder bomber that crashedFebruary 1945 {n route from North Africato R •A. F . Valley). There is now aplaque to the 5 members of theU.S.A.A.F. crew built into a bridgealong the Llanberis Pass supplied byArthur Evans and friends from localdonations.

As we approached the final summitof Y-Garn at 3,104 ft., the sky sudden l ydarkened and the mist swept up the ridgeand here we saw our first 'BrackenSpectre' - what was so amazing the threeof uS all had our own individual spectreon show. As we descended towards thegorge of the Devil's Kitchen the shadowsof the 'Spectre' seemed to follow tomake our 'Glory' outing on the Snowdoniahills a special treat.

POST OFFICE NEWSHow time flies - it doesn't seem a year

since we wrote an article highlighting somealterations/changes that "ere going to takeplace at Totley Rise P.O.

Two out of the few changes previouslymentioned have now been completed, namelymodernisation of the shop interior and theinstallation of a larger postal collectionbox. The siting of the box initiallycreated some difficulties insofar that thenew position (alongside the P.O. entrance)was the only suitable location availableafter taking into consideration such thingsas public services (gas. water, electric,B.T.) Health & Safety, Highways and RoyalMail requirements.

Schedules are now being arranged onSaturday, 13th July & Sunday, 14th July1996 for a third phase of alterations to becompleted. This will consist of modernisingthe counters area inside the Post Officenot only to improve the workingenvironment, but mainly to enhance allsecurity aspects relating to counterservices. The alterations should complimentthose recently carried out on the retailside of the business.

Despite having surveys carried out laStJanuary regarding the shop frontage and newPost Office sign, no definite dates areavailable as to when these will becompleted.POSTAL CHARGES

Customers are reminded that increasedpostal charges are being introduced onMonday, 8th July 1996 (inCidentally thishas no bearing on the alterationspr-evi.ous Ly mentioned!!) .• Thelp increase instamps (previously increased in September1993) is expected to raise f150M towardsthe £lBN that the P.O. is expected to givethe Treasury over the next three years.PAYMENT OF BILLS.

Some customers are still unaware thatsince closure of all Gas and Electricshowrooms these bills can now be paid atP. os , ( incl tiding B.T. bills) without

incurring any extra charge.NOTE: Y.W.A. billS still incur a charge ofSSp.HOLl DAY INFORMATION.

When planning this year's holiday,particularly if you are going abroad, it isimportant that you try to organiseeverything well in advance - the followingpoints should be taken into consideration:-PASSPORT FOHNS are not available at localSub Post Offices. These can only beobtained from main P.Os. located at HeadOffice (Fitzalan Square), Co-op (the Moor),G.T. News (Leopold St.).HEALTH advice booklets are alwaysavailable at your local Post Office. Thiscontains vital information such asobtaining medical treatment abroad.immunisation checklists, Form Elll (HealthCare for visitors to EEG countries etc.)FINANCES are one of the major elements ofany holiday. It is often a good idea tohave some local foreign currency availablebefore you arrive at your destination.Travellers' cheques are also a secure andsafe means of taking money on holiday. Ifthese are lost or stolen then they Can bequickly replaced.TRAVEL INSURANCE & CONTINENTAL MOTOR COVERis also essential for any trip away fromhome. Costs vary enormously so obtainquotes from a variety of sources. Look formaximum cover {theft, medical expensesetc.etc.) at minimum cost.REMEMBER if you have reason to claim keeprecords of events, take photographs, askthird parties to make statements and getreceipts. Make sure to report all incidentsto the police.

Booklets on all the above facilitiesare available from your local Post Office.All holiday services offered by the PostOffice are provided by highly reputableorganisations at extremely competitiverates and probably offer the best valueavailable.

A SINGLE STOREY(The Prefabs in Totley).

Whenever I dig in my back garden inGreen Oak Avenue, I am usually reminded oftwo things. Firstly the prefabs andsecondly local history.

When the new Green Oak housing estatewas being built in the late 60s early 70s,following demolition of the prefabs, theposition of my back garden is roughlywhere the contractor's site huts werelocated. So for the first few years I waslucky enough to reach large deposits ofteabags, bread wrappers and Tizer bottles(3p back on them in those days) but thepieces of prefab walling and roofing haveremained for much longer and are stillconstantly found.

This prbbablyraises the question whyhave we largely ignored, on the pages ofour magazine, anything to do with theprefabs?

Perhaps we still tend to think oflocal history (and history in general)being in the far distant past. The goodthing about the history of yesterday andthat of more recent years is that thereare still many people around who can giveaccurate eye~witne$s accounts of whathappened. To them it may be memories whichthey feel are unimportant and trivial. Butin reality, this is just what localhistory is all about.

I lived in two prefabs, be it only forshort periods but have fond memories ofthe time spent. (Although I was constantlycriticised for "hanging my coat at thebottom of the stairs", when what I reallymeant was hallway).

I have rent books from 1946 showingthat the rent was 14 shillings and 5 pence(72p) a week and from 1970 shOWing therent as £2/5j3d. (Two pounds Fiveshillings and Three pence). £2. 26p.Prefabs (or prefabricated bungalows)an early attempt at a quick remedyhousing shortages between and aftertwo World Wars.

The first prefab in Britain,to be of an American deSign wasin of all places. Harrod'sStore in London.

There were several different types ofprefabs erected throughout the country.Some still remain but are becomingendangered species, others have beenrebuilt, totally altered and others turnedinto houses by giving them a first floor.There were several prefab estates inSheffield. Many were destroyed in theSheffield gales but the Totley prefabestate remained more or less untouched.

In the near future it is possible thatthe Department of Heritage may consider"listing" certain of the remaining prefabsas items of historic interest.

There are even "prefab spotters".People who go around the country vI s Lt Lng,distinguishing and "spotting" thedifferent types of prefab. Residents inTotley will probably have to go to MarshLane, Eckington to see the nearest.

The Totleyprefabs 'Were probably ofthe American design, they were certainlyof a high standard, particularly thefittings, bathrooms and floors.

When the tenants first moved into theTotley prefabs, each one neatly laid outon paths, back paths and cuttings, Theywere welcomed with a reception in theCross Scythes Tea Rooms (the upper roomabove the pub) and a tenants associationformed.

So this article is an appeal to peoplewho lived in or remember the Totleyprefabs to write in and give as muchinformation, stories, events and memoriesthat will help to fill in the gap of thismissing period of Totley history.

All information will be valuable.are not looking for thousands of wordsnovels just put down your thoughtspaper.

There is no deadline or time limit. Itis bound to be a talking point betweenolder residents and neighbours.The type of information that will behelpful and interesting is. forexample:- When were they built?

Who built them?Who were the first tenants?Who were the characters?What was life like in a prefab?When were they demolished?Were they liked?Should they have been pulled down or

improved?We need your letters, articles and

stories. Does anyone have any interestingphotos or black and white drawings?

It's over to you.Mike Williamsen.

..I

ITAllAN RHAPSODYJohn Barrows, the celebrated Totley

walker, is constantly up in our localhills and I read his reports with greatinterest. His stamina Is amazing and,since envy is one of the seven deadlysins, then I am quitaclearly a deadlysinner. Perhaps John would haveenjoyed sharing our Italian walks thissummer though I fear that at the pointson the map where we turned to head backfor base he would have snorted andcontinued his vigorous footwork foranother ten or twenty miles.

My wife, by virtue of het" infinitewisdom, sees no profit in climbing hillsunless the pathS are adequately linedwith boutiques and shoe~shop windows:thus in my Italian forays I was usuallyaccompanied by a daughter who could givea good account of herself in the LondonMarathon. Maybe not the most suitablehiking partner for someone like me whohas not route-marched since themediaeval days of World War II when Iparticipated in such supposedly healthyepisodes, but not with any Sense offervour or dedication.

Back then to 1996 when my energeticoffspring and I made several excursionsfour or five hundred feet above sealevel and above the picturesque resortof Sorrento. We wandered between thelemon groves and vineyards while John,quite possibly, was high in the Penninessearching for the remains of morecrashed aircraft. Occasionally thelemon groves and vineyards alternatedwith wooded areas where the trees wereof a species not particularly common inBritain. Here, long swathes of tightlyfurled netting had been lashed fromtrunk to trunk, connecting treeS just aschain connects spaced-out convicts. Mydaughter and I, being fairly brightcharacters, guessed that netting slungso far away from the fishing port wouldnot necessarily be used for tunafishing. We then guessed even more:that in the appropriate season a band ofsinewy natives armed with long staves

would appear on the scene, unfurl thenets, and then proceed to whack theseforeign trees until the olive harvesthad fallen and could be gathered up enmasse. Of course we could have beenwildly wrong in our guessing, especiallyif it transpired that hillsides inCampania were ideal spawning grounds fortuna fish.

Later there was to be more walkingunder a hot sky this time roundPompeii. I was agreably surprised tonotice here how well-preserved were thewall paintings, some of them over twothousand years old and seemingly withnone of the protection which is affordedto workS of art in European galleries orby the darkness and even temperatures ofNeoli thic caves. But after two hoursmy knees - in their prime over 50 yearsago - were beginning to register a nobleantiquity. If justice were ever toprevail in this world of ours then thesewell worn joints would be awarded aGeorge Cross or. to obviate any flare-upof jealousy, two George Crosses.Finally my daughter led me througha doorway to see the tiny rooms and lowstone cOuches of Pompeii'S bordello.Her motives were not abundantly clear.These houses of pleasure arouse mixedfeelings in the civilized society ofmodern Britain~ sometimes tolerance,sometimes deep moral condemnation. Butbe that as it may, this specific Pompeiiestablishment ultimately closed down itsoperations on the 24th August A.D.79.Now let me tell you of a trulyremarkable coincidence: in Totley todaythere are several strong-minded men andwomen who have an unshakeable beliefthat our present City Council shouldalso have closed down its operations onthe 24th of AugustA.D.79.

Well, well - there's gratitude foryou !

GARDENING TIPS FOR JULY & AUGUSTSummer has arrived at last! Thank goodness the long

Winter/Spring has certainly put everything back a week or two. However,a habit of catching up, especially ,,,here weeds are concerned. I 've justfor a bit after moving at least two barrow-loads of weeds - I wonderplants don't grow as quick?

I hope you have made arrangements for a garden sitter whilst you are onholiday; nothing worse than coming back from a good rest:or ,.;hatever turns you on)and seeing your garden devastated by sun or lack of moisture, oc both.

SlUgs and snails are becoming a pest just now. I don'~ li~e to put too manypellets down as I cannot always find time to go round pick:'..r.g "J;:; the dead onesbefore the birds get them.

Give flower beds a regular feed,especially after a drop ofFuchsias like plenty of water - awetting once a week is ideal.addi Han of a compound fertiHserkeep them gr owf.rig and flo;..rering.peas need a layer Of mulch and aliquid feed.Tie up the taller perennials, if wea bit of wind early summer they arebroken down. Watch out for aphidscaterpillarS and deal with them as soonas they are seen.

Plant colchicums, autumn floweringcrocus and hardy cyclamen. I'iost liliesare planted in October or November butthe lovely Madonna Lily is an exception.~it mus t be planted during August. Donot bury the bulbs deeply. An inch(25mm) of soil above the bulb is ample.Seeds of hardy primulas can be sownoutdoors now in a good well-drained soilin a shady spot.

Thin out apples, pears and plums ifthe crop is heavy - the fruit will be abetter quality for i~, Blackcurrantswill benefit from a feed of high

nitrogen fertiliser such as nitro chalk.Cordon-trained apples should be summerpruned. both to keep them in shape andto check their vigour. Pruneraspberries as they finish fruitingcut them down to ground level, Retainsix or seven of the strangest new caneson each plant for frUiting next year andtie them in to the supports. Stop sideshoots and pollinate melons.

GREENHOUSE ~ INDOOR PLA1~TSKeep the greenhouse well-ventilated.Most plants prefer a moist atmospherewhich also reduces the chance of redspider mite invasion.

Young plants of perpetual floweringcarnations are better off in coldfrarneso Late-flowering chrysanthemumsshould be stopped. around mid-Julystopping s.imply means pinching out thegrowing tip of each shoot. Grapesshould be ready around this time fortheir fina~ thinning, Pay particularattention to the shoulders of each bunchwhere overcrowding is most likely tooccur. Regal pelargoniums will preferto be outdoors but they will needprotection. Cuttings can be taken fromthem at this time. Feed and waterregularly all plants which are notresting.

Do not allow coleus plants toflower these plants are grown fortheir foliage and the flowers areinsignificant.

Tomatoes should be fed and wateredto a strict regime to prevent blbssomend rot. However, do not allow theroots to stand in water and make suregrow bags or pots have sufficientdrainage. Tomatoes that have a heavycrop may need extra nitrogen to feed thetop trusses - dried blood can be used orsulphate of ammonia - be careful not tooverdose as this may c.ause leaf

scorching. A teaspoon (5ml) per gall.(4.5 litres) will be plenty.

Pot up pelargonium cuttings whichhave rooted. If you keep a warmishgreenhouse in winter you could plantschizanthus seed - keep them cool duringthe summer and they will give a niceshow in the spring. Watch out for anysigns of botrytis (grey mould fungus) onplants, particularly at the end ofAugust as things are cooling down andthe atmosphere is damper. Spray withfungicide or dust with flowers ofsulphur.

Cuttings of many plants, such asFuschias, Pelargonium, Busy Lizzie etc.,can be taken to increase stocks and makeup for over winter losses.

LA_~SKeep lawns well~watered if you can(subject to hose-pipe bans) in hotweather. Keep the mower set high andtake off the grass collecting box sothat the fine clippings act as a mulchand keep in the moisture, If rain isimminent give the lawns a dressing ofweed & feed. If it doesn't rain, waterin after two days.

I hope you have a nice holiday andcome back refreshed and ready to tackleall those neglected jobs you leftbehind.

r TRANSPORT 17

We are in crisis! If we do notget Borne more drivers and escorts soonthings could be looking bad for thelunch and social club passengers whom wetransport. Due to family commitmentSand health blips, and the fact that someof our helpers have got jobs (we reallyare very glad for them), we are verymuch stretched. One week it was goingto be down to 3 drivers and me! As \oIe

carry passengers for UP to 4 clubs aday, plus evening and weekend 'OutwardBound' tri.ps you can see that we reallydo need your help. Can you drive aminibus or help get people from theirhomes onto the buses and into theirclubs? If you feel you could do thisplease ring out" office on 2362962.

Vie are a fairly easy bunch to geton with. You need a bit of energy,some brains, oomph and a sense ofhumour. I would like to take thisopportunity to thank our drivers fortheir efforts, especially Tony Bishop.

Dear Editor

Has anyone notice thetransformation at the corner of GreenoakRoad and Aldham Close? Recently Ithanked our neighbour for all his hardwork and dedication. Where only twoyears ago an unsightly overgrowth ofshrubbery was to be seen, we now openour curtains to an entirely differentview. Enclosed in that new garden we seefour trees from the old plot. a wellkept lawn and dancing daffodils,certainly a host, certainly golden and Iwonder, there are canes on the wall,what shall we see later on? I know I amspeaking for all our immediateneighbours in this regard.

Yours sincerely.Elizabeth E. Cooke.

PUBLIC FOOTPATHAROUND THE "FLEUR -DE-L YS"

TOTlEYThis may be of particular interest

to the res5.dents of the private estateoff Totley Hall Lane. Following a slightaccident to a child some years ago by acar in front of the entrance to thepublic house opposite to the PostOffice, is the commencement of thepublic footpath, through the frontage ofthe "Fleur-de-Lys" and on to the rearvia the car park to the new estate.

Pressure has been continued to theBrewery. Bass Charrington for thefrontage as deemed, to be kept as anarea of landscaped garden and accessservice only. For the locking posts tobe erected at all times other than forservice and not for car parking.

Many telephone calls and lettershave gone to head office. The constantproblem has been one of lack ofcommunication between head office andfrequently changing management of the"Fleur-de-Lys". However the present-manager, Mr. Andrew ~·rallis has been veryco-operative after the ruling wasexplained.

Divisional management could helpwith a permanent fixed notice "NoParking" on the frontage additonal totheir notice "Car Park at the Rear".To alter any of this area was refused bythe Department of Planning.Reference: 28th May, 1988 No. 88/0575P.
