I trust this issue of the Broomstick finds you
well at this busy time of the year. Things on the
CCA have been fairly calm on the outside but
behind the scenes, many plans are afoot for
forthcoming events for 2020. Keep your eyes
peeled for up and coming notifications, see page 11. It’s been an
exciting year welcoming our fantastic new volunteers for the CCA.
Our second beer and music festival was a successful event and
next year proves to be even more productive and busy. Myself and
the rest of the CCA wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy
and healthy New Year. Andy
As you can see, everyone in the Village is receiving the Canewdon
Charity Christmas card with this edition of the Broomstick. To the new
people in the Village, this Christmas card is now in its 11th year. Some
years we have voted on the Village Facebook page for a favourite photo
but this year, the three of us unanimously chose Richard Pryor’s beautiful
photo!
Everyone who donated gets their name printed inside the card. This
year, we have had a record number of donators. After taking the cost of
printing off, we have raised a massive £1450 for our three charities. The
third charity is voted for by Villagers who have access to the Canewdon
Facebook page. This year that charity was Aching Arms, a charity that
supports parents who have lost a baby.
Thank you so much to Jo for collecting most of the money and chasing
up people. Also thanks to Charlotte for editing all the names inside the
card.
There are still a few packs of village Christmas cards for sale at
Costcutters. Packs of 10 cards cost £4. All money raised goes to the
CCA and Cancer Research UK. Thank you so much to Mark for selling
them. Lynne (Editor)
The next issue of the Broomstick will be for March/April 2020. Items to be
submitted by 8th February. The Broomstick is printed on paper from
sustainable forests by The Rochford Printing Co. and published by the
Canewdon Community Association & Village Hall. View the Broomstick online at

Happy New Year! How about making a New Year’s
resolution to join us in praying for our very special
village? It’s certain that many people have needs
for prayer – why not make them known to us?
During the winter months we continue to meet in our
home, 25 Althorne Way, at 8pm on the third Monday
evening of every month. The next two meetings will
be on Monday 20th January and Monday 17th

Let’s expect God to do amazing things among us!
He is more than able to meet our needs if we ask
him in faith.

The Beavers have been having cracking fun standing
on eggs and having egg experiments and working
towards lots of new badges.
They have all learnt to play the drums in a very
different drums session, sitting in a circle and what a
musical and rhythmic night they all had.
They made poppy jars, crazy experiments and enjoyed lots of games and
creative activities .
And finally they have their Christmas sleepover which will finish off a fun
packed year! For more information contact sachia@2ndcanewdon.co.uk
Some of the cubs attended the district UNI-HOC
tournament - well done to all who took part for our
Group!
The Group had Major Jonathon Bleakley attend a
session to discuss his and others’ roles in the armed
forces, marching and salutes. A big, big thankyou for
giving up his time for us!
The cubs also had a fantastic night of musical drumming, again like the beavers,
making lots of noise and learning about sounds and rhythm
A huge thankyou Steve Cooper.....they all had a great night!
For more information contact donna@2ndcanewdon.co.uk
The group enjoyed making flag poles out of
newspapers, took part in an obstacle
course testing their knot skills and had some
great outdoor activities.
The group is taking part in next year’s
International Jamboree and we will be also representing our group in the Pedal
car rally event in Brentwood in January. This year we will also, for the first time,
have 4 explorers entering.......Good luck to you all!
For more information contact ian@2ndcanewdon.co.uk
As always, the whole group took part in our Remembrance Sunday parade and
the service at St Nicholas Church which was well attended.

On behalf of our group , I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a
Happy New year.

enthusiastic to try and give you, the people of Canewdon, a few events to look
forward to in 2020.
We understand when anyone has the task of picking children up from school, it

standing in the rain.

The Cheese & Wine and quiz on 16th November went exceptionally well. We
had 26 booked, however it was a shame that 7 who had booked were unable to
make it. There was a positive side to it, those who did come along had lots more
wine and cheese to indulge in the whole evening! The quiz master, Stuart made
it fun. therefore lots of laughter from everyone.
Thanks go to Tricia, Dot, Stuart, Dave and Pauline for their help and hard work
in making it a really enjoyable Saturday night.
We hope you will be interested in coming along to a few of our events.
Any comments are always accepted good or bad, we want to listen to what you
say.
11Canewdon Then and Now - Canewdon Hall
Not the prettiest of buildings, this square, brick built house that
would be the last property to carry the name Canewdon Hall was built in
1807. The previous building was of wooden construction and was
thought, in part, to date back to medieval times. The property had been
let as a tenant farm to a builder from London named Bullen, who actually
built the new house and it is possible that its construction was part of the
terms of his lease. Although made of brick, the foundations and
basement areas were of stone. The new building was on exactly the
same site and was the same size as the previous building so the original
foundations may well have been re-used. The stone in the foundations
could have contained Roman materials or possibly date to that time.
The 1851 census lists only labourers living on Canewdon Hall
estate and mentions several unoccupied houses; one of which is
probably the Hall itself.
On 8th October 1852, the property at Canewdon passed to Paul
Midmay Pell. He only kept it for five years and then sold it to William
Bodger. William Bodger purchased Canewdon Hall and farm from Pell in
November 1857 at quite a high price considering the quality of the land.
He had plans to invest in ‘modern’ methods and equipment to cultivate
the land. He may have been given the impression that the land
12produced more than it did because Pell’s tenant, Mr. King, had held back
part of the previous season’s harvest in the barns! Whatever the
reasons, Bodger’s investment did not profit and he sold Canewdon Hall
at a loss in 1861.
James Neill purchased Canewdon Hall and farm from William
Bodger and sold it on again to Joseph Marriage in 1903.
Canewdon Hall itself lasted until it was demolished in 1966 and
Canewdon Hall Close was then built on the site in 1969. The actual
location of the old Hall would have stood in the front gardens of numbers
5 and 6 in Canewdon Hall Close and the garages which are situated
between the two terraces.
In its last years, the hall had been converted into separate rented
apartments which were said to be damp, draughty and cold to live in.
The last of the medieval buildings in the farm complex was the
large barn that was destroyed by fire in the hot summer of 1976. Some
residents will remember this event well. The barn was full of straw at the
time, causing the flames to leap high into the air adding intense heat to
the already stifling day.

WOMEN'S INSTITUTE
It’s a such busy time at the moment with all the Christmas
preparations and a General election looming.
We are looking forward to our December meeting when we shall
be having a party with a demonstration of
Christmas parcel wrapping, games and a
finger buffet. Our festive dinner will be
held in January at the Shepherd and Dog.
We find this a nice thing to look forward to
after all of the other activities but the only
thing is it ruins our New Year resolutions
to lose a little weight!
Our October meeting was a great success with Jan demonstrating
how to make little gift boxes and Jeannette demonstrating how to
make sweets. Everyone enjoyed these crafts and went home
brandishing a little box full of the goodies they’d made.
In November Sue gave a slide show of the various activities our
WI had participated in since 2010. Walks, trips to view Poppies at
the Tower, barge trip at Maldon, various WI birthday parties and
quizzes, Royal Albert Hall and Buckingham Palace for WI 100th
anniversary, Flash Dance at Chelmsford , Stow Maries to see
airfield , Fashion Show we’d modelled at and tea and cake events
we had taken part in. We laughed to see how we’d changed
hairstyles, started to wear glasses and realizing how long we’d
had some of our clothes. Husbands please note!
We wish you all a Very Happy Christmas and A Healthy, Happy
New Year 2020 hoping to see our members and any lady that is
interested in joining us at our January meeting which will be a quiz
and fun.
