1605 Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot.
Guy Fawkes
|
Remember,
remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I know of no reason
Why Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t’was his intent
To blow up King and Parliament.
Three-score barrels of powder below
To prove old England’s overthrow;
By God’s providence he was catch’d
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King! |

 Forget
the American Haloween
celebrations. In
the United Kingdom, Gunpowder Plot celebrations take place in towns and
villages
across the country in the form of both private and civic events. They
involve fireworks displays and the building of bonfires on which "guys"
are burnt. These "guys" are traditionally effigies
of Guy Fawkes, the most famous of
the Gunpowder Plot conspirators. Although the night is celebrated in
York (Fawkes' hometown) some there do not burn his effigy, most notably
those from his old school.
Before the fifth, children traditionally use the "guys" to request a
"penny for the guy" in order to raise funds with which to buy
fireworks . In the United Kingdom, there are several foods that are
traditionally consumed on Guy Fawkes Night: toffee
apples, baked
potatoes, which are wrapped in foil and cooked in
the bonfire or its embers and
black peas
with
vinegar . In the Black
Country, it is a traditional night for eating
groaty pudding. In Sussex, it is a major festival that centres on
Lewes necessitating the closure of the town centre. The night also
commemorates the Glorious Revolution
and 17 local Protestant martyrs that were burnt at the stake during
Marian Persecutions of the Catholic Queen Mary I. The night begins with
torchlight processions in costume by a number of local bonfire
societies
and culminates in six separate bonfires where effigies of Guy Fawkes,
Pope Paul V and topical personalities are destroyed by firework and
flame.
The Somerset
Carnivals are
highly
regarded as the largest illuminated processions in the world. They
occur late on in the year at various locations including: Bridgwater,
Burnham-on-Sea, Chard, Ilminster, Glastonbury, North Petherton, Shepton
Mallet, Taunton, Wellington, Wells, Weston-Super-Mare, and
Yeovil. The
carnivals in
Somerset date back to 400 years, and are one of the most spectacular
events in Somerset today. In some of the bigger locations (such as
Bridgwater), you can expect to see crowds of more than 120,000.
The carnival floats
(or carts as they are sometimes referred as), are
designed and built by dedicated carnival clubs around the West Country.
These carnival clubs have many members who raise money throughout the
year, and work relentlessly to achieve the spectacular carnival
entries. The carnival floats take part in the carnival parade along
with other entries; these range from clowns dancing
in the streets to 100ft illuminated carnival floats (some with up to
30,000
light bulbs) pulled
by tractors. |

1812
PRIME MINISTER SHOT IN
LOBBY OF HOUSE OF COMMONS
Spencer Perceval, the son of the
2nd Earl of Egmont, was born in 1762. After being educated at
HarrowTrinity College, Cambridge, he became a lawyer.
In 1796 Perceval was elected MP for Northampton. In the House of
Commons Perceval became a strong supporter of William Pitt and the Tory
group in Parliament. When Henry Addington
became Prime Minister in 1801 he appointed Perceval as his
solicitor-general. The following year he was promoted to
attorney-general. When Lord Portland became Prime Minister in
1807 he appointed Perceval as his Chancellor of the Exchequer. Perceval
got on well with George III and loyally supported the king's opposition
to Catholic Emancipation.
When Portland died in 1809, Spencer Perceval accepted the king offer to
become Prime Minister. Perceval's period of power coincided with an
economic depression and considerable industrial unrest. This resulted
in his government introducing repressive methods against the Luddites.
This included the Frame-Breaking Act
which made the destruction of machines a capital offence.
Perceval held the post until 1812 when he became the only British
Prime
Minister in history to be assassinated. Spencer Perceval was shot when
entering the lobby of the House of Commons by John Bellingham, a failed
businessman from Liverpool. Bellingham, who blamed Perceval for his
financial difficulties, was later hanged for his crime.
THE
OTHER BOMBS AT
THE
PALACE OF
WESTMINSTER
  1941
Hitler
Succeeded Where Guy Fawkes
Failed
During the second world war, the Palace of
Westminster was hit by bombs fourteen times. The most serious attack
occurred on the night of 10-11 May 1941. On that night the Palace was
severely damaged, the chamber of the House of Commons was destroyed and
three people were killed. This picture below shows Members' Lobby
looking through into the Commons Chamber.
Between
1940 and 1941, both Houses of Parliament were in fact convened at
Church House in Westminster due to a fear that the Chambers might be
bombed while the Houses were sitting. The Palace was damaged by air
raids on fourteen different occasions during the war. On 26 September
1940, a bomb which fell into Old Palace Yard caused severe damage to
the south wall of St Stephen's Porch and the masonry of the west front.
The statue of Richard the Lionheart was even lifted bodily from the
pedestal, but sustained only minor damage in the form of a bent
sword.On 8 December 1940, a bomb demolished the south and east sides of
the Cloisters of St Stephen's and did considerable damage to the other
two sides
The
incendiary bombs which fell on the nights of 10 and 11 May 1941 caused
the greatest damage to the Palace. The Commons Chamber was hit by bombs
and the roof of Westminster Hall was set on fire. The fire service said
that it would be impossible to save both, so it was decided to
concentrate on saving the Hall.The Commons Chamber was entirely
destroyed by the fire which spread to the Members' Lobby and caused the
ceiling to collapse. By the following morning, all that was left of the
Chamber was a smoking shell. A
small bomb struck the Clock Tower and broke all
the glass on its
south face, but the clock and bells were undamaged and the chimes could
be broadcast as usual.The House of Lords was struck by a bomb which
passed through the floor of the Chamber without exploding.As
the Commons Chamber was totally destroyed and the Lords Chamber
was damaged, both Houses moved to the Church House annexe and sat there
from 13 May.From late June 1941 until October 1950, the Commons met in
the Lords
Chamber, while the Lords met in the Robing Room (a fact which was kept
secret during the war). To reach the temporary Commons Chamber in the
Lords, the Speaker's Procession had to pass through the Central Lobby.
This proved such a popular feature that the practice was retained after
the Commons moved back to its new Chamber in 1950.

1974: IRA bombs parliament
 A bomb has
exploded at the Houses of Parliament, causing extensive damage and
injuring 11 people. The IRA
said it planted the 20 lb (9.1 kg) device which exploded at about 0828
BST in a corner of Westminster Hall. The
explosion is suspected to have
fractured a gas main and a fierce fire spread quickly through the
centuries-old hall in one of Britain's most closely-guarded buildings. Scotland
Yard detectives have said they
fear this attack could herald the start of a new summer offensive by
the dissident Irish group on government buildings. A
man with an Irish accent telephoned the Press Association with a
warning only six minutes before the explosion. Police said a recognised
IRA codeword was given. Although
officers were not able to completely clear the
palace before the bomb went off, most of the injured were only slightly
hurt. Leader of
the Commons Edward Short
announced a review of security procedures would begin immediately, but
he said the attack would not disrupt parliamentary business or
intimidate MPs. Liberal Chief Whip David Steel was in the
building when the device detonated and told the BBC the damage looked
considerable. "I looked through
Westminster Hall and the
whole hall was filled with dust. A few minutes later it was possible to
see flames shooting up through the windows," he said.
1974 was
one of the deadliest years in the IRA's mainland bombing campaign. In February
a bomb exploded on a coach carrying soldiers on the M62, killing 12
people. A further
26 people died later in the year in attacks on the Tower of London and
on pubs in Guilford and Birmingham. The last
Provisional IRA attack on the
British mainland was in 1996, but extremist splinter groups have
carried out bombings since then.

1979 AIREY NEAVE KILLED
|
In 1979, Airey Neave was blown up in his
own car as he drove from the car park at the House of Commons. His legs
were severed and he was unrecognisable, though his black coat and
striped trousers identified him as a Tory MP.
It was one of the
most serious assaults on the sanctity of parliament since the Gunpowder
Plot of 1605, and 30 years on the identity of Neave's murderers is
still uncertain and his death remains unavenged.
The case caused an
enormous shock, for Neave was then a major political figure. He was
Margaret Thatcher's eminence grise, and steered her to leadership. More
relevantly he was shadow Northern Ireland secretary, a portfolio that
he expected to be his when Thatcher became prime minister.
But in a new century Neave
is almost forgotten. Paul Routledge, with several other political
biographies behind him, makes in this book a strenuous attempt to
revive him and to lend to his life a greater significance than it
possibly had. Public servant, yes; secret agent, more dubious. Neave
had links with the intelligence community dating back to his war
service, but there seems no real proof he was active in the field after
he became an MP.
During World War II,
however, Neave may have established one serious claim to historical
fame. He saved the Chartres cathedral from being blown to pieces by
American tanks during the liberation of France, or so says the record
in the parish church of St Mary's, Oxfordshire, where he is buried.
According to this story, Neave arrived at the place in front of the
cathedral to find the turret guns ready to fire because, the Americans
said, there were snipers in the spire. Neave begged for five minutes'
grace, went into the cathedral unarmed, climbed up the spiral
staircase, and waved a handkerchief to indicate there were no Germans
there. A remarkable story, and it is odd that Neave does not mention it
in his extensive memoirs.
Routledge's
biography falls
into three parts. The first section draws heavily on Neave's own
account of his wartime experience when, as a POW, he became the first
Briton to escape from the "impregnable" fortress of Colditz. This event
has been documented in films, on television and in print, but still
makes good reading. He was then recruited to a division of MI6, and set
up the "ratlines" which helped people escape from occupied Europe.
Most people will
speed-read the second
section of the book which details Neave's parliamentary record, though
his plotting on behalf of Thatcher has interest. ("I feel like a puppet
whose strings have been cut," she said after his murder.)
The
third and most lively section, at
least to conspiracy theorists, can be subtitled "Who killed Airey
Neave?" Routledge goes for the obvious suspect, the Irish National
Liberation Army (INLA), a small but deadly breakaway from the IRA. In a
risky operation he made contact with INLA and spoke to a masked man who
gave details of the kill. Republicans wanted Neave out of the way,
because as Ulster secretary, his policy would have been no amnesty,
shoot to kill, and capital punishment for terrorism. INLA and the IRA
itself saw him as highly dangerous.
|
But other theories
abound. One is that
Neave was blown up by three "sleepers" who had no known connection with
republican activities before or after the murder. It was a one-off job
done for patriotic reasons.
Even more
interesting is the theory that MI5 and the CIA worked together to get
rid of Neave.
The chief exponent
of this theory was
Enoch Powell, who maintained for many years that the CIA had
assassinated not only Neave but also Lord Mountbatten. The reason?
Neave was determined to keep the six counties part of Britain, the US
Administration wanted a united Ireland as a member of the Western
defence alliance.
As for MI5 and MI6,
Neave is said to
have expressed the opinion that they were Augean stables that needed
cleaning out and he intended to do this when Thatcher was in government.
October 2009
The Irish terror
group is disbanding amid claims the British Government has given
it more than £7million.The Irish National Liberation Army - also
thought to have a hand in the Omagh bombing and the murder of two
British soldiers in Northern Ireland this year - will pocket the
taxpayers' money over five years, it was claimed yesterday.The alleged
deal was revealed as the Republican paramilitary group - responsible
for 113 murders - announced an end to its 35-year campaign of violence.
The INLA said its 'armed struggle is over' and it would pursue its
objectives by 'exclusively peaceful political struggle'.
Security sources in
Ulster claimed the £7million would be 'dressed up' as grants and
funds for community projects involving former terrorists.

THE LORD
MAYOR'S SHOW
Henry Fitzailwyn
was
London's first Lord Mayor in 1189 and the first Lord Mayor's Show was
in 1215. The reason for the procession is for the Lord Mayor to pledge
his allegiance to the Crown (the current king or queen).
The new Lord Mayor
is required to swear a pledge
his allegiance in
front of the Lord Chief Justice and Judges of the Queen's Bench
Division, hence the route from Mansion
House in the City of London (the official residence of the Lord
Mayor of London) to the Royal Courts of Justice.
The Lord Mayor's
Show was the first event to be broadcast live on television. The BBC
cameras film from Mansion
House each year to an audience of millions.

Organised by Welling Round Table, the Danson Park fireworks display is
a charity event that raises money for good causes in the local
community. Past events have raised much needed funds for projects such
as the children's water park in Danson Park, new mess tents for the
Scouts, the local junior football club and more, so you can be sure
that your money is going to be put to good use. The Danson Park
fireworks display takes place on Saturday 3rd
November 2012. The gates open at 6pm, with the display itself starting
at 8pm. Tickets cost £5.00 on the gate or £3 for kids and
£4 for adults
if booked in advance which can be done online or via local ticket
agents in Bexley. For more information please click on the link below.

Head to the Westway fireworks display for a
traditional
bonfire, fire
jugglers and an impressive fireworks show for Guy Fawkes Night...Guy Fawkes Night is one of the most popular events in the
autumn
calendar, and for 2011 you can mark 406 years of gunpowder, treason and
plot at the Westway fireworks display. The annual display comes
courtesy of the Westway Development Trust, and takes place in Maxilla
Gardens close to the Westway flyover. One of the
best things about the Westway fireworks display is that it's
completely free, although as it's a relatively small display you'll
want to arrive early for the chance to secure a viewing spot. Around
300 people are expected to enjoy this fireworks display in Maxilla
Gardens, which also features a giant bonfire. As
well as the pyrotechnics show and bonfire at the Westway fireworks
display, you can also enjoy a display of Guys made by local
schoolchildren. There's also stilt walkers and fire jugglers to provide
some extra entertainment inbetween all the fizzes, bangs and pops. The
Westway fireworks display takes place from 6pm on Friday 4th November
2011. Admission is free. Entrance is from St Marks Road alongside the
Westway flyover. Nearest Tube: Ladbroke Grove. |

Cornwall
Traditional Midsummer
bonfires are still lit on some high hills in Cornwall (see Carn Brea
and Castle an Dinas, St. Columb Major). This tradition was revived by
the Old Cornwall Society in the early 20th century. Bonfires in
Cornwall were once common as part of Golowan, which is now celebrated
at Penzance, Cornwall. This week long festival normally starts on the
Friday nearest St John's Day. Golowan lasts several days and culminates
in Mazey Day. This is a revival of the Feast of St John (Gol-Jowan)
with fireworks and bonfires. This list pertains to the Guy Fawkes
Tradition.

Back for another year in 2012, the Danson Park fireworks
display makes
the most of of their event with a stunning fireworks show, a funfair
and more family friendly entertainment.
Set in the beautiful grounds of Danson Park in Welling, the 2012 Danson
Park fireworks display aims to be one of the biggest shows in south
east England, so get your gasps of admiration ready for a spectacular
pyrotechnics show. Lasting nearly half an hour, the display will be
lighting up the night sky on Saturday 3rd November 2012.
Other attractions at the Danson Park fireworks display include a
funfair for kids and food and drink stalls, so there'll be something to
keep both young and old happy on the night. A variety of community
stalls will also be set up in the park, while the display itself takes
place over the lake and will be choreographed to music.
Organised by Welling Round Table, the Danson Park fireworks display is
a charity event that raises money for good causes in the local
community. Past events have raised much needed funds for projects such
as the children's water park in Danson Park, new mess tents for the
Scouts, the local junior football club and more, so you can be sure
that your money is going to be put to good use. The Danson Park
fireworks display takes place on Saturday 3rd
November 2012. The gates open at 6pm, with the display itself starting
at 8pm. Tickets cost £5.00 on the gate or £3 for kids and
£4 for adults
if booked in advance which can be done online or via local ticket
agents in Bexley. For more information please click on the link below.

Carnival
heritage wins £41,000 lottery grant
11:00 - 15-July-2010
The Carnivals In Somerset Promotion Project group has made a successful
bid for Heritage Lottery funding to promote and conserve the history of
the area's famous illuminated carnivals. A Heritage Lottery Fund grant
of £41,000 has been secured to develop a range of facilities and
key element will be a mobile exhibition unit, due to make its first
appearance on Wells Cathedral Green on August 4. It will then be
touring the county and elsewhere.The exhibition van will display the
history, heritage, culture and community of the carnivals through
images, video, text and memorabilia. The van also has a recording
facility to collect oral histories and memories. Anyone with carnival
memorabilia is invited to bring it along. A carnival DVD and
educational package for schools is being prepared.
The Carnivals in Somerset Promotion Project (CISPP), was formed by
volunteers in January 2009, in response to concerns that the heritage
of Somerset's illuminated carnivals could be lost unless more people
are encouraged to take part in the tradition.The carnivals bring in an
estimated £40 million of tourist and other revenue each year.
Around 10,000 people are thought to be involved in carnival and there
are more than 50 float clubs and another 100 or so other clubs who
enter as walking groups or individuals.
The origins of carnivals in Somerset can be traced back to the famous
Gunpowder Plot of 1605, when Guy Fawkes and his fellow conspirators
failed in their attempt to blow up the Houses of Parliament. King James
I and his parliament decreed that the events of November 5 should be
commemorated annually with the lighting of bonfires which led to a
tradition of merrymaking out which the carnivals were born. The
Bridgwater Carnival (the oldest event of its kind in the UK) can be
traced back to 1847 through journalistic records.
|
|
The Somerset
Carnivals are
highly
regarded as the largest illuminated processions in the world.
They
occur late on in the year at various locations including: Bridgwater,
Burnham-on-Sea, Chard, Ilminster, Glastonbury, North Petherton, Shepton
Mallet, Taunton, Wellington, Wells, Weston-Super-Mare, and Yeovil.
The
carnivals in
Somerset date back to 400 years, and are one of the most spectacular
events in Somerset today. In some of the bigger locations (such as
Bridgwater), you can expect to see crowds of more than 120,000.
The carnival floats (or carts as they are sometimes referred as), are
designed and built by dedicated carnival clubs around the West Country.
These carnival clubs have many members who raise money throughout the
year, and work relentlessly to achieve the spectacular carnival
entries. The carnival floats take part in the carnival parade along
with other entries; these range from clowns dancing
in the streets to 100ft illuminated carnival floats (some with up to
30,000
light bulbs) pulled by tractors.
The timing of the West Country Carnival
close to the British celebration of Bonfire night is no coincidence, as
the roots of the original carnival in Bridgwater date back to
1605.
Guy Fawkes is the character most associated with the plot to blow up
the Houses of Parliament, however the instigator was Jesuit priest
Robert Parsons from Nether Stowey, a short distance from Bridgwater.
Parsons and his colleagues were Catholics who wanted to put an end to
the Protestant King James VI and Parliament of the day, in order to put
an end to catholic persecution, hence they planned their ill-fated
attempt on 5 November 1605.
Bonfire night is a major annual
celebration across the whole of England, but it is likely that the
reason that the West Country Carnival was originally so keenly
celebrated is that the South West towns were predominantly Protestant —
hence the celebration of Robert Parsons' (and Guy Fawkes') failure. The
religious origins of the event are almost forgotten and far less
significant today |
The Carnival Circuit
The Bridgwater carnival was the first
carnival of its type, however other carnival processions within the
South West began some years ago. They start in late August and continue
until late November. The oldest and largest circuit is the Somerset
County Guy Fawkes Carnival Association Circuit which starts at
Bridgwater, with many of the carts will appear in all of the carnivals.
Prizes are awarded in several categories for the best carts in each
carnival.
The three circuits are:
* Wessex Grand Prix Circuit: Sturminster Newton, the
third Thursday in August/weekend before Bank Holiday; Trowbridge; Mere;
Frome; Shaftesbury; Gillingham; Castle Cary & Ansford; Wincanton;
Warminster
* South Somerset Federation Of Carnival Committee
Circuit: Wellington held on the last Saturday in September; Ilminster;
Chard; Taunton; Yeovil
* Somerset County Guy Fawkes Carnival Association
Circuit: Bridgwater on the Friday following the nearest Thursday to 5
November; North Petherton on the following Saturday; Burnham-on-Sea on
the following Monday; Shepton Mallet on the following Wednesday; Wells
on the following Friday; Glastonbury & Chilkwell on the following
Saturday; Weston-super-Mare on the following Monday, the last carnival
in the whole circuit. From 2012 this will change with Bridgwater on the
first Saturday after 5 November, Weston-super-Mare on the following
Friday, North Petherton on the second Saturday, Burnham-on-Sea on the
following Monday, Shepton Mallet on the following Wednesday, Wells on
the third Friday and Glastonbury on the third Saturday.
[edit] Carts and floats
Uniquely in the West Country, the vehicles are called carnival "carts",
unlike other carnivals where the term carnival float is used. The term
"cart" is still used today to describe the large and elaborate trailers
used in the procession. Carts are built by local clubs of individuals
funded totally by charitable donations and sponsorship from local
businesses.
|
Carts
are always themed, with no restriction on the theme from the organising
committee. Regularly chosen themes include:
* Popular children's books - like Alice in Wonderland
* Favourite children's characters - such as Disney
characters
* Scenes or themes from history - like Pre-Historic,
Victorian or famous Battles
* Scenes or themes from around the world - such as
Australia, Rio de Janeiro or Spanish
* Travel and transport - such as cars or trains,
e.g. The Chattanooga Choo-Choo
* Popular themes of the day - including pop songs or
dances
* The future or exploration - such as space
Carts include both music and costumed people to complete their theme.
People and items on the cart can either be moving, or static in tableau
format - the later being difficult to hold position for on a cold
November evening.
Today these carts are driven by farm tractors, and usually also tow a
large diesel driven electricity generator to provide the huge amount of
power required to power the carts. Some generators used can provide
over one megawatt of power, with 10,000 to 30,000 light bulbs not
uncommon on a modern day cart.[8] The tractors themselves are often
decorated to match the rest of the cart and generator, and in some
cases modified so that the driver is positioned low down between the
two front wheels. This allows for a higher degree of decoration without
obscuring the driver's view. The length of the entire cart is often
built to the maximum allowable of 100 feet (30 m).
These floats are also interspersed with walking exhibits, either groups
or singles, and occasional marching bands or majorette troupes.

Bridgwater [route/map]
The
origins of our
annual carnival in Bridgwater can be traced back to the Gunpowder Plot
of 1605 when Guy Fawkes and his fellow conspirators, failed in their
attempt to blow up the Houses of Parliament. That story is well known
to everyone, but what is not so widely acknowledged is that it was King
James 1st and his parliament who decreed that the events of 5 November
should be commemorated annually with the lighting of bonfires, a
tradition which is celebrated across the nation to this very day.

Burnham-on-Sea
/ Highbridge [route/map]
In the
late 1800s
and contininuing into the 1900s Burnham celebrated November 5th with a
bonfire in the High Street to which were rolled blazing tar barrels. In
about 1907/8 there were concerns about safety and it was decided to
have the bonfire on a field and a torchlight procession starting
in
the High Street and processing to the bonfire field. Thus in 1909
Burnham had its first Torchlight Carnival Procession. This
format continued until the outbreak of World War One ,and the carnival
did not return until 1923.It then continued as an evening carnival
until 1939, when an afternoon procession was held. Festivities
were cocooned until 1947 and the event grew in size and popularity to
become one of the most popular carnivals in Essex.Afternoon events were
held on the Mildmay Ironworks Field and there were madi gras type
events in the High Street after the procession. In the 1950s a full
Funfair was introduced into the High Street and this remained until
1966. There were problems in this year and the
following year an small afternoon procession was organised .1967 saw an
Evening procession back,now at the end of September and much curtailed
from pre-1966. Subsequent committees have built that
carnival up to what you now see today, with one of the most successful
Carnivals in the South East of England.

Illuminated Carnival takes places on the evening of the following
Saturday.Around the time of the Illuminated Carnival, a
fun fair is in town, and high street traders compete in a
window-dressing competition. The Carnival Committee produces a 64-page
Carnival Programme,on sale locally, which provides information about
the Carnival, serves as a directory to the local businesses that
advertise in it, and includes competitions. On our pages you will see
line drawings that have appeared in our Programmes, drawn by Committee
member Pam Pope. On the evening of the procession there are barbeques,
hog roasts, and other hot food and drinks around the town.

Chard
(route/map)
In
1967,
representatives from the League of Friends and Chard Youth Centre met
to discuss ways in which to raise money for the respective groups.
Gerald Quick, Mervyn Ball, Tom Miller and Wendy Clulow decided that the
best option would be to revive Chard Carnival, after a break of 13
years. The carnival is now in its 43rd year and has
raised over £85,000 pounds for local charities and organisations,
including Chard Christmas Lights, Children’s Hospice South West, Chard
Hospital and all the local schools. In the early
1970’s, Chard, Ilminster, Wellington and Taunton formed the South
Somerset Federation of Carnivals, with Yeovil joining at a later date.
This provided a competition for the best entries from the 5 towns
taking part.

to the current climate and the difficulty in fund raising, obtaining
sponsorship, the cost of public-liability insurance and new rulings on
health and safety, it would be impossible to commit to staging this
event with the limited funds the committee had in reserve following the
disastrous summer last year and the poor attendance of floats at the

Frome
Carnival
has been
in Frome since 1929 having been founded by Mr Alan Bennett together
with others who worked at that time for Butler and Tanners, a local
printing firm who are still one of the main employers in the town.
Frome carnival grew in popularity over the years and this was aided by
the fact that Mr Bennets daughter Hazel met and married Mr Roy Butler
M.B.E. he became known as "Mr Carnival" and was well known in the
community for his dedication to the carnival charity which was formed
to help local people in need.

Glastonbury [route/map]
Glastonbury,
with
Bridgwater, is the biggest. At each carnival there are collections to
raise money for charities.The Carnival takes over the town for one day,
starting at around 7.30 in the evening. Thousands of people pour in
from near and far, traffic is closed off, and the town reeks of hot dog
stands and outdoor snack bars. People line the streets, all wrapped up
against the cold, and the Carnival floats weave through town. It's
quite a close-and-friendly affair. Apart from crowds in the streets,
people hold parties in houses along the route and the pubs fill up
after the event. Kids love it - there's a fairyland element to it, even
though the high-volume music makes it a little, shall we say, modern!

always have some good organisation and put on a well organised show
with more entries than most towns. There are prizes for 1st, 2nd and
third in their different classes, there is a cup for “Spirit of

It's a fun night out for all the family and you can help raise
funds
for charities or the clubs for the next year's entry. Thousands attend
the carnival, so watch out as parking can get very limited on carnival
nights and the town centre can often be cut off to traffic during the

Guy Fawkes Carnival, was formed in 1948, and joined the Somerset County

the fact that it held on a Saturday night, which allows the youngsters
to stay up a little later than normal. The other reason is that is runs
straight through the town of North Petherton, Somerset, with no awkward
turns, causing unnecessary hold ups. As with thousands of
visitors
converged into our small town emergencies will always happen and no
amount of planning will not eliminatethis, please be
patient as the emergency services will deal with theses as soon as
possible, and allow the carnival to resume, if they need to be
on the route. North
Petherton Guy Fawkes Carnival, offers ample viewing throughout the
whole route, which allows even the youngest and eldest of our visitors,
to watch this marvelous spectacle of light, sound and
movement. We
do not charge for admission to one of the three, largest illuminated
carnivals in the world, however a street collection will take place
during the carnival itself, by numerous collectors and
collecting vehicles, proceeds of which, go towards the running of the
carnival, prize money and finally the local
charities
of which we support. We are always grateful for any amount we collect,
however our collections have equated to only 30p a head. With
over three hours of entertainment from the dedicated entrants and the
cost for them to build these exquisite entries, we urge you to give at
least £3 per head from your group of
friends or
family, and secure the future of North Petherton Carnival for future
generations, to marvel over.

Shaftesbury
Shaftesbury
Carnival is an annual event that has become part of Shaftesbury’s
history. This year will be the 133rd Carnival, a great achievement that
involves hundreds of people to make it such a great success. A lot of
people give their time voluntarily including people driving Courtesy
cars for our Mayor and retiring royal family, collecting vehicles who
turn out year after year, the many marshals that walk miles back and
forth, the owners of the land at our assembly areas, who are always
most helpful and of course, our sponsors for their continued financial
support, without which the Carnival could not survive. There are more
too numerous to mention, so thank you, thank you, thank you all.

Shepton
Mallet [route/map]
The
origins of
Shepton Mallet’s carnival are some what unique. It all began because
the town needed a community centre. In the early 1960s the Shepton
Mallet Community Association was inaugurated to raise funds for the
project.Organisations from across the town and surrounding villages
pulled together and it was agreed that bringing carnival to Shepton
Mallet was one way to draw in much needed funds.A Carnival committee
was set up in 1965 and carnival came to Shepton Mallet. Over the
following decades, thousands of pounds have been raised for local
charities, unfortunately donations to the community centre fund were
stopped when it was realised that for various reasons the centre would
not be set up.Mr Bob Kerslake and Mrs Maura Kerslake were amongst the
founder members with Mr Lionel Edwards as chairman an office he held
for thirty years this he handed over to Don Clifford who remains as
chairman at the present time. In the years that followed, from 1965 the
sponsorship raised by the carnival queens and princesses has done much
to cover the running costs, with street collections making up the
balance to cover costs and make donations yearly to local clubs and
charities.Over the years the carnival grew and in 1978 there were a
record 151 entries. It was at this stage that the decision was made to
no longer plough money into the community centre fund, there still
being no visible progress on that project. In fact Shepton Mallet 30
years later still does not have a community hall.

Carnival, which was under threat because of a demand for £1,500
from
the Performing Rights Society, has been given a reprieve following
intervention by Taunton MP Jeremy Browne. The society wanted to claim
the money under a new law. But carnival chairperson Josephine Chave was
able to negotiate a substantial reduction after Mr Browne took up the
cause. The carnival is set to go ahead as planned on September 25th

[route/map]
The
Wells Carnival
is a spectacle not to be missed. It is said be the biggest illuminated
carnival in the world. These huge floats make their way slowly through
the medieval streets intertwined with street performers with highly
inventive and stunning costumes. As it is dark at this time of year the
blaze of colourful lights, music, dancing and beautifully tailored
costumes on these floats creates a unique and exciting atmosphere. The
tableau floats usually depict a scene with all the performers in a
fixed pose effectively creating a living picture.
The carnival is Free to see and all
these floats are created by enthusiasts who are raising money for
Charity.
The 2010 Wells carnival is scheduled to
take place
on Friday 12th November at 7.00pm and is a must see for anyone planning
to come to the area. There is also a fun fair in the market place.

NEW ROUTE - [route/map]
WESTON-SUPER-MARE
ILLUMINATED CARNIVAL, A SPECTACLE OF LIGHT, MUSIC & COLOUR The
earliest newspaper records concerning Weston super Mare November
Carnival go back to 1871. In those days it was usual for the
Parade to
start at the Knightstone Island and after wending its way through
almost every street in the town, it dispersed on the beach, where
bonfires were lit and effigies burned. These were not only Guy
Fawkes,
but any unpopular figure of local disdain or even international
infamy.This year approximately 100,000 spectators are expected to line
the route around the town. There will be around 130 entries, of which
50 will be large illuminated floats up to 100 feet long and up to 17
feet high.

There are 400 wax candle torches sold on a first come first served

torches are sold by members of the Committee from the local school in
an unlit form. This process is strictly supervised and sales are only
made to adults (those over 18), it is made clear at the time that
adults must ensure that children are not allowed to carry the torches.
The
public are asked to queue orderly where the money is passed over for
the torches and the torches are then lit outside the waiting area,
again under the supervision of a marshal Warning and Safety Notices are
displayed at the point of sale on Fluorescent Yellow A4 Paper. Once
all the torches have been handed out and lit, the procession is led by
a mobile p.a system along the road system and onto the village green
where the torch carriers are marshalled around the exterior of the
exclusion zone (roped off area) until all members of the torch
procession are around the fire. At that time the fire is lit with the
torches and once again the torch bearers are marshalled away from the
area using three metre wide exit zones which are moveable based upon
the wind direction. After the fire has been lit the exclusion zone
remains in place and is marshalled at all times to ensure that no
member of the public will go inside the zone. Road

Sussex
Not many places have stronger bonfire traditions than
Sussex. Where
in other places, celebrations of the Gunpowder Plot have dwindled to be
little more than suburban garden fires and boxed fireworks, the
enormous bonfires and stunning fireworks displays across Sussex
continue.Sussex bonfires kick off in October and continue
through November. Many of the county’s towns and villages have
their
own bonfire societies, which organise their event every year.
Bonfire
societies tour around the county taking part in the torchlight
processions in each town and village.Many of the societies
are long established, although Lewes in the oldest of the Sussex
organisations. The Lewes societies originated in the 17th century
after the 5 November celebrations across the county spiralled out of
control and became riotous, drunken events, which sparked a crackdown
by authorities. Bonfire societies were formed to bring the
bonfire
boys, and their events into some kind of order.Sussex
bonfires began to take a more organised form in the 19th century, after
an unsuccessful attempt by police to put a stop to the
celebrations.
This is when the Sussex bonfires became organised torch-lit processions
accompanied by drummers and banners, like we know them today.
Many of
the societies dropped their distinctive disguises for more elaborate
fancy dress. Each of the societies still have their own
‘uniform’,
which often gives clues to how the society was formed.
In
1066 Country, the Hastings, Battle and Rye bonfire societies play big
parts in the gunpowder season, organising events that draw tens of
thousands of people to the area celebrate bonfire night in spectacular
fashion.

Saturday 11th September
sees this year’s second Sussex Bonfire procession of the year, with a
trip to one of the highest places in Sussex, Crowborough. The main
event of the evening gets underway at 7pm, when wreaths are laid at the
war memorial, which I believe is at All Saints Church, next to the
green.The procession gets underway at 7:30, from Chapel Green, just
after the crowning of the carnival queen at 7:15. After leaving the
green at 7:15, two hours of processing through the streets of the town
get underway, with a long ramble right round the town, which last year
was in the area south of Crowborough Hill and took in a refreshment
stop at the Bricklayers Arms in Whitehill Road, but the details of
which can be found in the programme, which is available in the town.
The route of the procession will take the procession of torches and
floats through the streets and back to the Chapel Green area for about
9:30pm.

If
you want to support and up and coming bonfire society, then maybe
Eastbourne will be the night for you. Reformed after a long
absence in 2001, Eastbourne is a small yet friendly society, who can be
seen with their distinctive banner and unevenly spaced Guernsey stripes
at all of the main events in Sussex.Advertising themselves as a family
friendly event, the discharging of rook scarers, flares and other scary
things in the procession is strictly prohibited and the procession will
actually take place along the promenade in the town, rather than along
the road. It’s no great secret in bonfire circles that Eastbourne have
had a hard time with the council, who have made it difficult even
for torches to be part of the procession in the past, I believe citing
reasons such as “fire risk to buildings” as an excuse not to have a
torchlit procession. The procession will leave about 7:30 from
Silverdale Cross and end with an explosive firework display and beacon
on the beach around 8:30, behind the bandstand, so a nice early one and
good for the kids, with the added advantage that the area is well lit
and policed, making it one of the safest events on the calendar. One
final note, it is illegal to drink on the streets in Eastbourne, and
accordingly drinking is prohibited both in the procession and in the
crowd. |

Nevill
Juvenile Bonfire Society was formed, almost by accident, in 1967, when
two local men had their own bonfires destroyed before the 5th November,
and decided to have a community bonfire, with forty of their friends
and 50 torches, along with fireworks and a small set piece, on the
local allotments.Within two years the society were using 1500 torches
in four processions and within five years they had over 500
members. Today the society marches with a large number of
visiting societies, making an impressive snake around the Nevill
estate, headed up with their own colourful costumes and green and white
striped guernseys. Topical cartoon or toy related tabs are
usually the order of the day with Nevill, last year a giant Lego Batman
was hauled through the streets to meet a firey, explosive end, in
recognition of the 50th birthday of Lego and the Batman film, the Dark
Knight, which had been released earlier in the year. Events kick off at
six when the first procession forms up in Highdown Road for a march to
the green, where poppies will be lit and the Martyrs’ Memorial will
also be set off. The Last Post will be played and there will be a
minutes silence, before the procession returns to Highdown Road. At
half seven the main procession will form up and leave at around quarter
to eight. Taking around seventy five minutes, it will wind its
way around most of Nevill before heading down to The Green and up the
Nevill Road to the firesite at Landport Bottom, which, confusingly, is
neither where the Landport Estate is or the bottom of anywhere!
It’s more commonly known as “The Race Hill” and it’s where Borough
Bonfire have their fireworks on the fifth! After the fireworks have
completed the final procession will form up in Highdown Road, do a loop
of Firle Crescent and Mount Harry Road before returning the the
headquarters for Bonfire Prayers! Don’t forget to support Nevill by
buying a programme, which are available from the shops on the estate
and by paying the small £3 charge for adults to enter the
firesite. Don’t forget that accompanied kids are free!
There will be a collection for charities along the route, please don’t
forget to give generously!

Firle
23
October 2010 |
Firle,
who have a long history and are the only big society that don’t invite
other societies to attend their procession. Not because they are
an unfriendly lot, but because there are so many members and such a
small village, that there just would be room for everyone! Famous
for its fire banners coming down the hill, Firle is a great
destination, but being small, it’s often overcrowded, so
hopefully the clash with Fletching this year will help relieve some of
this. Winner of the “Where In Sussex Best Bonfire Brew” in 2005,
I will be sad to not be attending this year. There is usually a
charge for parking at Firle Place and the fireworks are always
spectacular. Those heading to Firle hoping for something
controversial will be sadly disappointed, as Firle bonfire is, as it
always has been, a celebration for the villagers of Firle. |

Lewes
Bonfire
Night celebrations
5
November 2010 |
Massive
annual bonfire event takes place throughout the town, organised by
several local bonfire societies. There are seven different Bonfire
Societies in Lewes, each with their own marching procession, bonfire
and firework display. From 5pm Lewes will be closed to traffic.
Be warned that roads in the town are closed and there are no parking
facilities. You may also have a long wait on public transport. Most
processions take place between 7pm and 9.30pm on the High Street.
From about 10.15pm the societies return from their fire sites and from
11pm most have their final processions leading to 'bonfire prayers' to
round off the evening. Very large crowds expected (around 150,000
people come to Lewes to watch the celebrations). Unsuitable for small
children and pets. Note : Lewes Bonfire Council urge people from
outside the Lewes locality to celebrate in their own area due to travel
problems and very crowded streets.

This is a
list of all of the active sussex bonfire
societies outside Lewes , with a little bit of info on each one , this
will go some way in explaining how fiercely the bonfire tradition is
upheld in this neck of the woods. All but one or two by the way are in
East Sussex . . Why ?
. . Not all of them have their own bonfire night celebration , google
the society if want more information and most of them have their own
bonfire night celebrations different to the " Fifth "Why ?
. . . Me Thinks it
has got something to do with the Harvest Festival , Cinque Ports
Confederation and the freedom to roam at night during the close cross
English Channel fighting season and the many fire beacons raised in
Sussex to warn of advancing enemies , Many of the older societies are
either on a hill , coast or surrounded by fertile farmland used to
serve Lewes.
The wimpy Spanish and French would not normally dare
to try and cross the channel in choppy waters from September onwards ,
So we English lit fires and took to the streets and celebrated our
freedom.French Invasions , Spanish Armada , Sussex Martyrs ,
Guy Fawkes , Pagan and Harvest Festivals . Think about it ! . See the
bonfire night dates page for more details

by the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and the 50th anniversary of
the James Bond film franchise, this year’s event will have a “Diamonds
are Forever” theme, with Fireworks set to music. Fire performers will
be a major highlight of the event, performing on stage so everyone gets
a great view. There will be ample catering outlets, and a large yurt –
courtesy of Avalon Yurts – so festival goers can experience the
wonderfully atmospheric fireside storytelling.
New for 2012 will be our Acoustic, Unplugged, Open Mic zone, run by the
fantastic Wrongo-Bongo band.We are also pleased to announce that we
have one of the UK’s top Remote Control Helicopter Pilots (Richie
