November 1902 - Badsey Reading Room
READING ROOM
At a meeting held in the Old School on Tuesday, October 28, at 7 p.m., it was decided to start a Reading Room in Badsey this winter. A resolution was passed that the payments for membership should be as follows: 6d. entrance fee, and 1s. per month to be paid in advance. It was also agreed that no one under the age of sixteen years should be admitted as members. A strong committee was elected, and it is proposed to open the room early in November.
October 1901 - Badsey's Bells (with extracts from December 1901 and January 1902)
BADSEY'S CHRONOGRAM
Mr. C. A. Binyon, who is taking a great interest in the Bells and other historical matters connected with our Parishes, has sent us the following account of the inscription on the tenor bell in Badsey Tower. It will form a useful addition to a note on the bells which appeared in our local magazine of March, 1898. While speaking of the bells we should mention that Mrs. Sladden very kindly had a Rummage Sale in their barn in aid of the fund for two new bells on Saturday, September 21, when the substantial sum of rather more than £9 was realised.
May 1901 - Two entertainments at the Old School, Badsey
TWO ENTERTAINMENTS
January 1901 - The Great Flood
THE GREAT FLOOD
It is worthy of a place in our records that the worst flood known for many years, some say 30 years, occurred on the last day of the century. The houses at the mill and some in Wickhamford were entirely surrounded by water, and a very great inconvenience was caused to the inhabitants in consequence. In some cases the houses were entirely inundated on the ground floor.
