Village News in brief
For those of you who did not know, The Kings Head is now buzzing! Excellent Carvery on Sundays, and excellent fresh Fish & Chips on Friday, not to mention the equally excellent food on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday !
Kathy and Mike Dillon at the shop are now sponsoring The Panthers Football Team strip – (other sponsors are most welcome.) They are now playing on Saturdays, see more detail inside. It can never be said too often though, don’t forget that the shop is only there if YOU use it ! ( if not, YOU lose it!)
The Village Hall Committee are urgently seeking a new volunteer to run the Moulton Village Hall 200 club! See inside for details – and the Club also needs new members to support it !
The new WI recipe book is now available ! with some 120 exclusive and quite delicious recipes, just in time to make your ideal Christmas present – telephone Fran on 750190 or Sally on 554382 to reserve your copy.
A fantastic evening was had by all (those lucky enough to get a ticket! ) at the Harvest Supper, when a memorable caberet of a conversation between Lord Nelson (Mick Lambourn-Brown) and Hardy (Bob Saltmarsh) was performed to perfection. Book early next year!
The same two tireless workers for this village, together with another of the same ilk, Bill Rampling, our dedicated Parish Council Chairman, organised and “lit” a magnificent firework display which was well attended at the Kings Head.
Not a lot of people seem to know this, but a colossal amount of work and effort is put in by a comparatively very few people on your behalf to keep Moulton as the attractive, desirable, interesting and thoroughly pleasant place to live in that it is!
MOULTON NEWS is the main means of getting news and views out and about amongst you all in the Village. But we do NEED YOUR NEWS AND VIEWS. Please do not hesitate to offer them to us! – at the moment no one does! You can even be anonymous if you wish! My thanks yet again go to Jill Goodwin’s contribution, including her interview with Fran & Bob Saltmarsh, and her Archive work !
Moulton Village Fun Day – Sunday 25th May
It was a wet and windy day, not the nice spring weather usually experienced on Fun Days, but with the support of the Village an incredible £3,400 was raised.
Moulton Community Walks – 14th June 2008
In near to perfect conditions a record number of walkers from all parts of the country took part in this year’s event sponsored by Newmarket Rotary and The West Anglia Sports Partnership.
The entry list contained some big names from the race walking world, but it was local walkers who entered as ramblers and amblers who caused a stir amongst the race walk enthusiasts. Geoff Dobson, Ann Ashby, Julia Frost, Agnieszka Bartyzell and Julie Middleton all completed the testing five mile course in under an hour, which is the first standard of achievement for race walking. The finishing list below shows that others were not far short of the mark, but most importantly, the satisfaction for most was completing their own personal challenge.
The thirteen children who participated in the junior walks all showed lots of endeavour and were presented with their medals by John Warhurst Commonwealth 20 mile champion in 1974.
European Masters Champion Ann Belchambers of Hillingdon was the first lady home stopping the clock at 49.14 and Aldershot ’s Nick Silvester also a European Masters Champion the first man in 39.16, whilst in the team competitions Enfield ladies and Ilford men collected the medals. Moulton ladies did so well that they grabbed the bronzes!
The racing Industry Team award was won by Julie Middleton, Carolynn Anderson and Kit Cunliffe representing the Darley Stud.
In addition to a number of former internationals there were eight games medallists on hand to mark the final race by sixty-nine year old four-time Olympian Paul Nihill who dominated World and British walking during the sixties and seventies setting records and winning medals at all the major Games.

STOP THE STACK!
Do You Value Your Peace and Quiet?
- There are plans by the National Air Traffic Service (NATS) to route ALL Stansted western arrivals over this area.
- Aircraft will hold or stack above this area while they wait to land at Stansted Airport.
- Aircraft will circle at altitudes from 7,000ft up to 14,000ft. When in use the stack will always hold an aircraft at the lower level and up to 8 planes above when full.
- Aircraft can be given clearance to descend beneath the stack at any point down to 4,000ft or they will leave the stack along the ‘red’ exit route. Villages under this red route will be significantly over flown. To see how you will be affected go to How this affects you on the NATS website, enter your postcode and select option 4 – proposed Stansted western arrivals.
- At busy times there will be up to 33 planes per hour using the stack.
- ‘Daytime’ flying is from 6am – 11pm.
- Noise levels will be up to 69 decibels for noisiest aircraft at 4000ft, equivalent to a car driving 40 miles per hour 23ft away. The Government acknowledges that anything over 57 decibels causes ‘disturbance’.
- NATS concede that the impact of such air traffic is worse over rural areas where there is less background noise, but say they are acting on Government guidance to avoid areas of dense population.
- The number of aircraft using Stansted is set to increase. If plans for a second runway are approved aircraft numbers will increase even more.
- If these plans are approved the planes will arrive next spring 2009.
For more info on these proposals and how to oppose them please visit http://sopaq.wordpress.com
It is really important that people respond individually to the proposals by 19th June 2008. Responses can be submitted via the NATS website www.consultation.nats.co.uk or by post to TCN Consultation, NATS freepost, NAT22750, Reading, RG1 4BR
