Braughing
Braughing /ˈbræfɪŋ/ is a village and civil parish, between the rivers Quin and Rib, in the non-metropolitan district of East Hertfordshire, part of the English county of Hertfordshire, England. Braughing was a rural district in Hertfordshire from 1935 to 1974.
History
Prehistory
There is some evidence of human activity in the Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age, but settled habitation began in the Iron Age, around the 3rd century BC. It was probably a trading post, situated on the navigable extreme of the Rib, providing a route to the larger River Lea. In the late pre-Roman period it may have been the capital of the Trinovantes and the seat of such kings as Addedomarus and Tasciovanus.
Roman times
At Ford Bridge, near Braughing there was a significant town in Roman times, situated close to several major Roman roads, including Ermine Street (now the A10), Stane Street (now the A120) and the Icknield Way, and covering at least 36 hectares. The town was a Roman industrial centre for the manufacture of pottery. When the River Rib is in full flood, bricks, tiles and other more interesting artefacts from the Roman settlement are washed from its banks.

Old Man's Day, Braughing (2015)
Matthew Wall was sixteenth century resident of Braughing, who had a lucky escape from being buried alive. He was actually in his coffin on the way to his funeral when the bearers slipped on wet leaves and the coffin was dropped, jolting Matthew and bringing him back to consciousness. When he eventually really died over twenty years later, Matthew left a bequest in his will to commemorate the anniversary of the non-burial, which was October 2nd. On this day each year the custom begins outside the Golden Fleece, where the vicar tells the story of the dramatic event and the current resident of Matthew Wall’s cottage pays his annual fee of £1. The church bells are rung, the lane to church (Fleece Lane) is swept by local children and the vicar with brooms and Matthew’s grave is tended while p...

The Braughing Fair and Wheelbarrow Race 2016
Braughing is a small, attractive village in East Hertfordshire. The Wheelbarrow Races are an annual event and have been running for over fifty years. The 2015 event took place in torrential rain so it was a relief that the weather was so good for the 2016 runs. The races were; Budding Barrowers (school years 2 - 4), Wheely Whizz Kidz (school years 5 - 8), Demon Wheelers (shool years 9 - 13), Wenches on Wheels (Adult Ladies race - but with some male entrants too) and The Stud Run (Adult Men's Race). This video shows brief highlights and gives an impression of what the event is like for the spectators.

ThenAndNow: Braughing Ford
This view, described in the Braughing Conservation Area statement as a focal point and highly picturesque, has changed substantially as a result of: the removal of the large weeping willow (this has been replaced); the replacement of the bridge in March 2020, the replacement blue lighting column; and the removal and replacement of other vegetation associated with the implementation of the grant of planning permission at No 9 Maltings Lane in 2014 which has led to the garages being exposed to view. Even so, its character endures. Notes: Although not picked up in the Hertfordshire Landscape Character Assessment (Area 91* Upper Rib Valley) fords like this are characteristic of the Rib valley.

Braughing is a small, attractive village in East Hertfordshire. The Wheelbarrow Races are an annual event and have been running for over fifty years. The 2015 event took place in torrential rain so it was a relief that the weather was so good for the 2016 runs.

Farmland - Braughing Friars - Field Trip - 19/07/14
The Herts moth group assembled once more on their annual trip to a 10 acre site of Hertfordshire farmland that has been left in 2006 to grow wild.
The vegetation was certainly dense and even encroaching over the roads that once had 40 tonne lorries driving up and down it every single day.
Those days have long gone and 8 years down the line it is amazing how much nature has really taken a hold and used every inch of space to its full potential.
It is really sad that this may be the last time we all get together and trap this site (I hope not)
But with sad news comes good news, and boy did we go out in style.
The list is still a work in progress with various moths with other people to be checked, I will compile my notes on the night of what we observed to the hanging sheet and all of the traps that we tried to empty carefully
Carefully with two things in mind, the moths flying off and Hornets...of which we had quite a few!
The weather was absolutely perfect, warm overcast (most of the time) and humid with a faint southerly breeze at times and a minimum temperature reading on my car at 4am this morning of 18 degrees!
The moths...well where do we start. We could of had a field day with all the beetle species that were coming to the traps let alone the 1000’s of moths, yep that many I would predict.
Stars of the show were Kent Black Arches, Waved Black, Brown-veined Wainscot, Lesser-spotted Pinion and Olive.
The micros are now finally done and thanks to Colin Plant and Andy King for extra dissections from moths collected during the night, we seem to have a fair old whack of the Cnephasia species present on the farm for starters! We also got quite a few wetland species suggesting a lot of movement from other habitats.

The list is still a work in progress with various moths with other people to be checked, I will compile my notes on the night of what we observed to the hanging sheet and all of the traps that we tried to empty carefully
Carefully with two things in mind, the moths flying off and Hornets...of which we had quite a few!
The weather was absolutely perfect, warm overcast (most of the time) and humid with a faint southerly breeze at times and a minimum temperature reading on my car at 4am this morning of 18 degrees!
The moths...well where do we start. We could of had a field day with all the beetle species that were coming to the traps let alone the 1000’s of moths, yep that many I would predict.
Stars of the show were Kent Black Arches, Waved Black, Brown-veined Wainscot, Lesser-spotted Pinion and Olive.
The micros are now finally done and thanks to Colin Plant and Andy King for extra dissections from moths collected during the night, we seem to have a fair old whack of the Cnephasia species present on the farm for starters! We also got quite a few wetland species suggesting a lot of movement from other habitats.

Braughing's legendary wheelbarrow race!
The Braughing Wheelbarrow Race was started in 1964 and takes place in the picturesque East Hertfordshire village of Braughing.
The race starts and finishes at the village ford. Teams of two push a wheelbarrow round a 400 metre course through the village streets with each person taking turns to push the barrow with the other team member sitting in it.

This view, described in the Braughing Conservation Area statement as a focal point and highly picturesque, has changed substantially as a result of: the removal of the large weeping willow (this has been replaced); the replacement of the bridge in March 2020, the replacement blue lighting column; and the removal and replacement of other vegetation associated with the implementation of the grant of planning permission at No 9 Maltings Lane in 2014 which has led to the garages being exposed to view. Even so, its character endures.
Notes:
Although not picked up in the Hertfordshire Landscape Character Assessment (Area 91* Upper Rib Valley) fords like this are characteristic of the Rib valley. They are also historic features that have long exerted a strong effect on community life, particularly when in spate.

Braughing
Braughing /ˈbræfɪŋ/ is a village and civil parish, between the rivers Quin and Rib, in the non-metropolitan district of East Hertfordshire, part of the English county of Hertfordshire, England. Braughing was a rural district in Hertfordshire from 1935 to 1974.
History
Prehistory
There is some evidence of human activity in the Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age, but settled habitation began in the Iron Age, around the 3rd century BC. It was probably a trading post, situated on the navigable extreme of the Rib, providing a route to the larger River Lea. In the late pre-Roman period it may have been the capital of the Trinovantes and the seat of such kings as Addedomarus and Tasciovanus.
Roman times
At Ford Bridge, near Braughing there was a significant town in Roman times, situated close to several major Roman roads, including Ermine Street (now the A10), Stane Street (now the A120) and the Icknield Way, and covering at least 36 hectares. The town was a Roman industrial centre for the manufacture of pottery. When the River Rib is in full flood, bricks, tiles and other more interesting artefacts from the Roman settlement are washed from its banks.

Innocence Gone
by: ProngI had a new premonition
I have found the non light
I've had a brand new renewal of sight
Do you need a new genuflection?
Do you wanna make a different pact?
You've got to get in with the facts
It's the end
Innocence gone
Your whole meaning
Becomes undone
You've made an art of treachery
You'll be snake right out of anything
I've said, "I won't do, not a thing"
To the double negative, you can only agree
Are you waiting for your resurrection?
Do you wanna make a different pact?
You've got to get in with the facts
Do you need a new genuflection?
Do you wanna make a different pact?
You've got to get in with the facts
It's the end
Innocence gone
Your whole meaning
Becomes undone
Innocence gone
Innocence gone
Innocence gone
Innocence gone
It's the end
Innocence gone
Your whole meaning
Becomes undone
It's the end
Innocence gone
Your whole meaning
