Editor’s Letter...

Wow, what a month! The amazing and

thrilling success of the Olympics has

boosted everyone both at home and

abroad! I don’t think I have ever seen so

many non British people wearing our flag

abroad!

The London Olympics have shown to the world

that we are a nation who support and

encourage, no matter what flag you are flying. I

really hope the Paralympics is as successful and

wish all the competitors the very best of luck.

The deadline for the October issue for

advertising and articles is Wednesday 19th

September. The Arrow will be delivered from

Friday 28th September.

Best Wishes

Last Summer Garden Show Due to the sudden death of Alan Waitt the

Sprotbrough last Summer garden show in

September will now not take place. We do not

have enough participating members and the will to

With this in mind we have had a committee

meeting and closed the association early. When

the finances are complete the money will be

divided between, Sprotbrough Preservation

Society , Sprotbrough Village Church Roof,

Sprotbrough Library and finally Firefly (free cancer

time to keep the facility running. SCLL is supported

by both the Parish Council and Friends of Sprot-

brough Library (FoSL).

All the processes previously undertaken by the Council are to be continued, provision of books, CDs,

DVDs, and access to PCs and the internet, fax/photocopying and information on local facilities. Meeting

rooms are available for hire on a regular or occasional basis.

We still need and welcome additional volunteers.

time, once per week.

not an academic course; it is for practical help with daily living.

The course covers: the nature of wisdom; self knowl-

edge; levels of awareness; the power of attention;

living justly.

The course fee is £37.50 (concessions £27.50, f/t

Since the last edition we have seen a marked improvement in the weather, which has enabled us to play

some cricket. Unfortunately there has not been a significant improvement in the results as can be seen

below.

We, as a number of other clubs are, suffering from a player shortage both at senior level and Junior Level.

If anyone out there is looking to start playing, returning to the game or just a change of club, please get in

touch, you will be made most welcome and could have the opportunity to play on one of the best grounds

in the area.

We are almost at the stage of submitting out grant application for the new roof and internal refurbishment

and will be keeping everything crossed over the next few weeks that the bid is successful and we can bring

the club up to date for our members and visitors.

Ascend Sprotbrough Church tower, and though it is a work of very great difficulty, and attended with some degree of danger, save to the experienced climber, yet the adventurous spirit is so well repaid by the glorious view from which there presents itself. On the north lays the mansion of William Battie-Wrightson Esq. M.P.,

standing on a considerable elevation in a park beautiful with timber and with water, the gardens retiring away so as to leave the noble deer to feed up to the very windows. Here, formerly, was the favoured residence of Sir William Gascoign, that upright judge who feared not, in the discharge of his duty, to order a King’s son to jail. The present mansion has been rebuilt at a much later period by an ancestor of its present possessor, and is

replete with every comfort. In one of the wings is an elegant chapel, where, during the chilly blasts of winter, Mr. Wrightson very kindly provides a chaplain to give one duty on a Sunday to his family and immediate dependants. Over the altar table is a painting, by Hayman, of the Good Samaritan; and the ceiling is in compartments a la Fresco. The drawing room has its walls graced with some fine old tapestry, and a view from the window extremely grand and striking. On the west lies the residence of Andrew Montagu Esq. where the park is similar and where also the deer graze immediately around the mansion. Towards the south of this ancient church the castle of Conisbrough may be seen; and just indeed is the remark of the author of Ivanhoe, who has thrown his

enchantment over this place when he says that “there are few more beautiful or striking scenes in England than are presented in the vicinity of this ancient fortress.” Below the castle flows the river Don – “Slow winding through a level plain, of spacious meads with cattle sprinkled o’er.” It was formerly called Dan, or Dun, from its being carried in a low deep channel, and rises in the upper part of Pennystone, near Lady’s Crosse, flowing through the whole length of the parish of Sprotbrough, and is lost in the Humber. On the east is seen Doncaster, one of the most striking and beautiful of England’s

towns, and when the eye turns nearer home, the Hall of the Copley’s, with its gardens, and shrubberies, and plantations; the Rectory, with its lesser yet pleasing attractions; the School House, the farms, and all the flower covered cottages, form, with the views towards the places before named, so pleasing a picture that Sprotbrough has often been called “The Happy Village.”

In this tower hangs a peal of six bells, and from a report current in the neighbourhood, we are led to suppose that they are cast from the metal of the original bells of Doncaster Parish Church, which in a measure may account for their exceeding musical and sweet tone. It is said that in the present day, bell metal does not contain near the quantity of silver as was formerly used. This may or not be the case, still these bells are most pleasing, and are generally rung on all public occasions. On a Sunday morning little groups assemble here; some engaged in discussing the weather, hazarding opinions of

a change, or of a continuance of the same bright sun-beams which make glad this day of rest. Others read the

epitaphs on the headstones, which, by a pleasing and pious uniformity, all face the east; and if children ask us why they do so, it is sufficient for us to tell them, and

for them to know, that it has been the custom so to place the dead in allusion to him who is the resurrection and the life; and as the body of the departed reposes, awaiting the sound of the last trumpet, it is meet that even in his grave thither still he directs his eye, in quiet expectation of awakening to behold in the same direction the second coming of his Lord.

The church is dedicated to the Virgin Mary, and is now in the Tudor style of architecture. It consists of a tower, nave with clerestory windows, north and south aisle, a noble chancel, and a vestry. Over the north porch is: “A little Gothic niche, of nicest workmanship, that once did hold the sculptured image of some Patron Saint.

Perhaps it is the Virgin Mary looking down on all who entered these religious doors.” Within the church are two tattered flags, said to have belonged to the Royal army of Charles I. with a helmet and spurs etc. Also on display are the coat of arms of the Gascoign family, with the initials of the judge who lived at Cusworth. Very near to this is another panel having the head of a King upon it, which is very similar in

representation, though of course much rougher in design, to that of Henry IV. Within the memory of man, the whole edifice was in as bad a condition, if not worse than any sacred building in the neighbourhood; water stood in its aisles, and dampness all around. An open drain has lately been made round the whole of the exterior of the building, making the chancel both dry and comfortable.

The arms of the Fitzwilliam’s are also to be found, along with an altar tomb to Philip Copley and his wife who departed this life in the year 1577. Upon the floor of the chancel is a fine brass memento to another ancestor of the family, together with his wife who died in the year 1474. He is in full armour, the feet resting on a lion, and his hands closed as in the act of prayer, there are the places where the coats of arms have been in the corners. The east window has been

much admired; it was designed and executed by Millar of

London, who put up the large east window in Doncaster Parish Church. The commandments, which are placed on the reredos immediately under the window, were painted by Armstead, of Doncaster. The parish registers, which are written on vellum, go back as far as the year 1539, and are very perfect. In them is entered a license

granted to Thomas Wormley, of Cusworth, by Richard Winter, the rector of Sprotbrough, allowing him to eat flesh during Lent on account of his sickness; it is dated March 9th, 1614. A stone seat with grotesque sculpture on it was dug up some years ago in the church yard, but to what purpose it was devoted has been the subject of many a

discussion, though the general

opinion is that it formed part of a stone pulpit (we now know this object to be the ‘Frith Stool’). On the windows are the arms of some extinct families, namely, Nevil, Gascoign, Bulmer, Ferrars Vaire, Boteler, Newmarch, Thirkill, Barden, and Wyman. Along with the Fitzwilliam arms there are also those of

Montague, and Mouthermer.
