Marton Village, Warwickshire

Great Marton Get Together 2024

The start of the summer holidays seem a long
time ago but Marton celebrated on the
Saturday 13 July with The Great Marton Get
Together.
The weather behaved itself and there was a
great turnout, also helped by a strong
publicity campaign in the area. Pleasingly this
was also reflected in the overall cash take, so
important in this year when the MPFA are
looking towards improving the Pavilion (see
above). When Dinyar had completed the
accounts a sizable £1,700 had been added to
the coffers.

Marton Defibrillators

For people who couldn’t attend the recent training session on using the village defibrillators, you can do the training any time online via the British Heart Foundation’s website: https://revivr.bhf.org.uk/

Remembering Her Majesty The Queen

In response to the death of Queen Elizabeth II, there will be a minute’s silence at the start of the Marton Parish Council meeting on Tuesday 13 September and another at the Great Marton Get Together on Saturday 10 September.

In addition, a book of condolences is available at St Esprit Church. There are also books of condolences you can sign and read online, including one hosted by the Church of England and another soon to be on the Royal Family website.

Local History Group: April 2022 Update

The next meeting of the Marton Local History Group is on Monday 25th April at 7.30 in the village hall. This will consist of the AGM, covering the time since 2019 when we last had an AGM, followed by a talk on the history of The Elms. This house has a fascinating history from its origins as a couple of cottages in the eighteenth century. As with past AGMs there is no entry charge but you still receive a complementary glass of wine. All welcome.

This is the last meeting at the hall for this season. In May there is a guided walk around historic Brinklow on Monday 16th.

The Bower

Many thanks yet again to David Fry for giving the final part of the talk on “A Short Guide to Marton’s History” at the end of February. This part covered Eathorpe Coach Drive, High Street to Chapel End and Fields Farm Lane

The next event will be on Sunday 27th March: meeting at Birdingbury Church at 3pm for a guided tour of the church followed by tea at “The Club”.  Please book beforehand with David Fry if you wish to attend.

The next meeting at the hall will be at the end of April.
