Oswestry Film Society `Jane Austin Wrecked my Life`

Dear Blogger

Message from Oswestry Film Society

JANE AUSTEN WRECKED MY LIFE: This funny and smart Anglo-French comedy gives us a 21st-century Jane Austen. Camille Rutherford is terrific as an aspiring novelist working in a Paris bookshop who wins a place on a Jane Austen writing retreat run by Austen's descendants in the English countryside. This good-feel film "glides along on Rutherford’s performance – witty, warm, keenly observant, a bit clumsy and Bridget Jones-ish, but never, not even for a moment, cringy" (Guardian review). This Wednesday, Sept 2 (7.30pm). Advance sales going fast: more info and tickets via our host's website, www.maonacinema.com - or on the door if available. Oswestry Film Society nights are open to all, and you will always be assured of a warm welcome. Also, check the Maona website for all the current Maona films too - including among many the return of National Theatre Live on Sep 24 with award winner Sarah Oh (Killing Eve) the lead in THE MISANTHROPE, the big culinary drama of the moment TONY, and some historical revivals in a special Cinema Rediscovered series.

JAZZ TRIO PERFORMING BOND THEMES AT HERMON CHAPEL: SATURDAY 5TH SEPTEMBER

If you are about to listen to the Bond night at the Proms on the BBC this weekend, bear in mind that next Saturday, 5th September, Hermon Arts are also hosting a live performance of James Bond themes from Tony Kieraldo’s album Golden Keys - ragtime and vintage-style versions of the classic tunes.

This fantastic jazz trio featuring Tony Kieraldo (piano) from New York, Jack Amblin (drums), from Wales and Saara Kaldma (vocals), from Estonia will perform a playful, fresh take on these iconic songs, blending nostalgia with virtuosity. The show promises top-tier musicianship, engaging vocals, and a few special surprises, including a washboard feature and tap dancing, all delivered with the signature flair that audiences love. 

Tickets are selling well so don't delay if you want a seat!!

The Field in Trust at the Bridge Inn Field

Dear Blogger

Message from Ruyton XI Towns Community Action Group

THE FIELD IN TRUST AT BRIDGE INN FIELD

A Field in Trust Plaque has now been erected at Bridge Inn Field, adjacent to Platt Bridge. See photographs below.

Most of Bridge Inn Field, owned by Shropshire Council, was declared a Field in Trust at a ceremony on the site in 2012 to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

The Deed of Declaration made by Shropshire Council and the National Playing Fields Association (operating as Fields in Trust) required Shropshire Council to immediately erect a Plaque on the site but this was not done and this and the proper status of the Field were subsequently overlooked for many years. 

Now after a persistent campaign by the RXIT Community Action Group supported by many local residents the Plaque has at last been erected. 

 The Plaque is a statement and reminder that the Field in Trust is to be available in perpetuity as “a public playing field and recreation ground for the benefit of the inhabitants of Ruyton XI Towns and thereabouts” and Shropshire Council has a duty to ensure that it is not used for any other purpose. It is protected from any development or change of status.

 The Deed of Declaration requires that the Field in Trust is “titled the

Queen Elizabeth II Field Bridge Inn Fields.”
