I denne utgaven
In this packed issue, we explore the history of salt production in Droitwich. We also discover a new, serious side to impressionist and comic Alistair McGowan. We take a trip on the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam Railway to learn about the extension to the line, and discover that Isambard Kingdom Brunel was involved in the last pitched battle between two private armies on UK soil. We reflect on the life of the great polymath Peter Mark Roget, remember the forgotten prince, Arthur, elder brother of Henry VIII who died before his time, and we report on the heroism of one Worcester World War I soldier. We discover a relatively new variety of apple, with its roots in Worcestershire, and reveal the qualities of turmeric, known as the spice of life. We have the usual topics covering electric vehicles, interiors, fashion and wine; and Pershore Patty samples and reviews the culinary delights of Ombersley’s The Venture In. Happy reading!

An Inland Coast
It may be hard to believe, but we do have a slice of the seaside right here in Worcestershire. The Flashes, the southern pools of the Christopher Cadbury Wetland Reserve at Upton Warren in Wychbold hold a rare habitat. The underlying salt deposit, the Droitwich halite, was formed around 200 million years ago and subsequent underground brine extraction caused subsidence and consequent flooding. As a result, the saline pools of The Flashes and the salt marsh were born. Wendy Carter, Worcestershire Wildlife Trust’s Communications Manager, tells us more

On The Charge Electric Vehicles; No Longer If, But When
The newspaper headline that Volvo is to cease production of internal combustion engine (ICE) only cars by 2019 raised awareness of their impending demise even more than the announcement by the French Government banning production of ICE cars by 2040 and India’s plans to ban sales of ICE cars from 2032. However, there’s no need to panic says ElectrAA founding member Dan Wild
