Oil Price

Friday May 1, 2026 by Steve J

This weekend’s rate is £1.0300 ppl* for the Parwich, Tissington & Bradbourne Heating Oil Club

Oil Prices have had another roller coaster ride this week with Brent Crude going to over $120 per barrel but back down to $107 today, as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.

If you wish to order, please ensure you make payment asap, as all offers can be withdrawn by suppliers over the weekend at any time, and product is on a first come, first served basis. Some suppliers have also added volume limits, so once it’s gone, it’s gone.

Our current estimated delivery timeframe for this weeks orders will be up to 10 working days and possibly longer, from when orders close on Monday. Please note this order is subject to supply limits and can be closed at anytime over the weekend.

Please note, deliveries are subject to weather and supply conditions, so please build in extra time for your oil deliveries and order earlier than usual, to avoid running out if your levels are on the lower side.

Estimated delivery times are currently 10 working days from when club orders close on Monday. Please also account for the upcoming bank holiday days in your delivery timelines. If you are low, or have less than 6 weeks winter supply left, this group order will not be suitable.

The Parwich War Memorial

Monday April 27, 2026 by Steve J

The beautiful limestone Parwich War Memorial in Parwich churchyard has been cleaned and restored. It was originally erected in 1919, paid for by public subscriptions, and dedicated by the Bishop of Southwell. Now under the auspices of your Parish Council, a cleaning and restoration has taken place by Jack Sills of IMI, Nottingham.

The national War Memorials Trust contributed to half of the cost, with the rest of the funds coming through generous donations from the Royal British Legion, the Oddfellows, Parwich church, the village United Charities, and Longcliffe Quarries.

April Parwich Film Show H is for Hawk

Wednesday April 22, 2026 by Donna J

Based on a true story by the naturalist, Helen McDonald, the film explores how when Helen’s father passes away, she is knocked sideways by grief and loses herself in memories of their time birding and exploring the natural world together. She becomes obsessed with the idea of training her own goshawk, and so she brings the fearsome bird Mabel home to her life as an academic at Cambridge University.

Helen fills the freezer with hawk food and turns off her phone, ready to embark on the long, strange business of trying to train this wildest of animals. But as she labours to tame Mabel, a grieving Helen undergoes an untaming of her own. A record of a spiritual journey, H IS FOR HAWK is a story about memory and nature and how it might be possible to reconcile death with life and love. Starring Claire Foy and Brendan Gleeson.

Sheep on Road

Wednesday April 22, 2026 by Steve J

Thanks to Lauren W for this message this morning –

Just to make you aware, sheep are out again on the road out of Parwich, near Ballidon turn off. This was at 0715 this morning, so they’re bound to escape further over the course of the day. They’re very near the blocker that was put in the hedge if that helps.

Oil Price

Saturday April 18, 2026 by Steve J

This weekend’s rate is £1.1498 ppl* for the Parwich, Tissington & Bradbourne Heating Oil Club

Oil prices remain turbulent, however as Iran reopens the Strait of Hormuz, Brent Crude falls below $90 per barrel today and Kerosene rates have fallen back as a result. Based on the past few months, this may be a short term relief in prices, so you may wish to get your order in now. Please ensure you make payment asap, as all offers can be withdrawn by suppliers over the weekend at any time, and product is on a first come, first served basis. Some suppliers have also added volume limits, so once it’s gone, it’s gone.

Current estimated delivery timeframe for this weeks orders will be up to 10 working days and possibly longer, from when orders close on Monday. Please note this order is subject to supply limits and can be closed at anytime over the weekend.

History Society Trip

Friday April 17, 2026 by Steve J

Designated a scheduled ancient monument because of its historic importance, the Lumsdale Valley was once a bustling centre of industry, with a collection of mills all powered by water from Bentley Brook. The brook rises on Matlock Moor and has never been known to dry up and supplies Lumsdale falls with unending water supply. The ruins of six of the mills in the Lumsdale Valley remain, all in various states of disrepair. The last private owner of the site refused to sell the buildings, despite lucrative offers for the stone, preferring to keep them in their ruinous state as a testament to their heritage and as a habitat for wildlife.
