In 1995, the Environment Act provided for a National Air Quality Strategy requiring local authorities to carry out Reviews and Assessments of the air quality in their area for seven specific pollutants. These are; carbon monoxide (CO), benzene, 1, 3-butadiene, nitrogen dioxide (NO2), lead, sulphur dioxide (SO2) and PM10 (Particles under 10μm in diameter). This Air Quality Progress Report concluded the following: Five sites in the town of Lydney exceeded the nitrogen dioxide annual mean objective of 40μg/m3. These sites are within the Lydney Air Quality Management Area, which was declared in July 2010. No other pollutants exceeded their respective annual mean concentrations. There are no other road traffic sources of concern within Forest of Dean District Council‟s administrative area. There are no other transport sources of concern within Forest of Dean District Council‟s administrative area.

  • Council Tax Spending Plans 2021 to 2022
    FOREST OF DEAN DISTRICT COUNCIL SPENDING PLANS 2021-22 The level of council tax Council tax is the main source of locally-raised income for this authority and is used to meet the difference between the amount a local authority wishes to spend and the amount it receives from other sources such as business rates and government grants. In determining the level of council tax payable, the Cabinet has borne in mind the difficult economic and financial climate that many of our residents face, although our funding from Central Government has declined sharply during the period 2010 to 2021 (although there has been increased funding in 2020-2021 to help with the impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic), with uncertainty over future funding levels after March 2022. With this in mind, the Council has to consider what level of increase in council tax is sustainable, without creating an increased risk of service cuts and/or larger tax increases in the future. The average council tax you will pay for services provided by the District Council is £189.03 for a Band D taxpayer equating to £3.64 per week. This is an increase of £5.00 over last year, equating to less than 10 pence per week. Service delivery The Council aims to maintain the delivery and high standard of its services to residents, protecting front line services within the reduced funding available. The Council has no funding gap in 2021-22 although we have increased costs, the continued impact of low interest rates on investment income, impact of Covid-19 Pandemic as well as additional government support throughout the pandemic.

  • Railways List
    A guide and list to a collection of Historic Railway Documents www.railarchive.org.uk to e mail click here December 2017 1 Since July 1971, this private collection of printed railway documents from pre grouping and pre nationalisation railway companies based in the UK; has sought to expand it‟s collection with the aim of obtaining a printed sample from each independent railway company which operated (or obtained it‟s act of parliament and started construction). There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

  • History 1890 – 1966
    A HISTORY OF GLOUCESTER HARBOUR TRUSTEES By W. A. Stone Clerk to the Trustees 1958 -1966 PART 1 1890 - 1966 CONTENTS Chapter Page 1 Origin, Constitution and Membership, with details of Navigational Aids erected prior to the incorporation of the Gloucester Harbour Trustees on 5 July 1890 3 2 Navigational Aids 20 3 Finances 39 4 Spanning the Severn Estuary 51 5 New Works and other installation in the Severn Estuary 56 6 Stranding of Vessels and other Incidents 61 7 Northwick Moorings 71 8 Officers and Staff 74 1 FOREWORD In compiling this History I have endeavoured to give the reasons for the appointment of a body of Trustees to control a defined area of the Severn Estuary, and to tell of the great amount of work undertaken by the Trustees and the small staff in administering the requirements of the 1890 Act. It is probable that I have given emphasis to the erection and upkeep of the Navigational Aids, but it must be realised that this was the main requirement of the Act, to ensure that the Trustees, as a Harbour authority, disposed of their income in a manner which was calculated to benefit the navigation of the Severn Estuary. A great deal of research has been necessary and the advice and assistance given to me by the present Officers, and by others who held similar posts in the past, is greatly appreciated. Without their help the task would have been much more formidable. W A Stone Clerk to the Trustees December 1966 2 Chapter One ORIGIN, CONSTITUTION AND MEMBERSHIP WITH DETAILS OF NAVIGATIONAL AIDS ERECTED PRIOR TO THE INCORPORATION OF THE GLOUCESTER HARBOUR TRUSTEES ON 5 JULY 1890 To obtain the reasons for the constitution of a body of Trustees to control a defined area of the River Severn, it is necessary to go back to the year 1861.

  • Forest of Dean & Wye Valley Self Catering Holidays
    FOREST OF DEAN & WYE VALLEY SELF CATERING HOLIDAYS Stank Farm, known to some locals as 'the stank', is situated in the picturesque village of Clearwell within walking distance of Clearwell Castle and Caves & Puzzle Wood. 'The stank' you will be relieved to hear is a very old word for pond or body of water and has nothing to do with the word stink! Ask the owners about the farm's history. The village also boasts 2 pubs, restaurants, cafe and a recreational ground. Nearby is Perrygrove steam railway and The Iron Age Experience. The old market town of Coleford only 2 miles away is a thriving community where all provisions can be bought 7 days a week. The Grade II listed farmhouse we believe dates back to 16th Century. The Lodge is a wooden log cabin that is set away from the house and sleeps 4/6 people. All of the self-catered accommodation has private access and outside space and all guests are welcome to enjoy the land and help on the farm if they would like to. The farm house and outbuildings are set within 17 acres with a stream running through and depending on the time of year there are sheep, cattle, pigs & chickens. The owners Andrew & Louise Salter and their 2 children William aged 14 and Lily aged 11. They offer a relaxing, comfortable and tranquil holiday within easy reach of the Royal Forest of Dean, Wye Valley and Vale of Leadon. The surrounding area offers walking, cycling, riding, climbing, canoeing, fishing, quad biking etc, Symonds Yat, Tintern, Monmouth, Clearwell castle, Welsh mountains, Newent, Ross- on-Wye and many other pretty villages and for younger children, Clearwell Caves, Dean Forest Railway, Model Village, Butterfly Zoo and plenty of nature trails etc.

    FOREST OF DEAN LOCAL HISTORY SOCIETY In this edition: ● Clearwell Magic! - See our review of Di Standing’s remarkable talk ● “We’re Not Telling” - Join a walk with our Victorian ancestors ● Iron Production in the Dean ● 70th Anniversary Dinner at the Speech House Editors Notes Occasionally you attend an event that is so good it resonates and stays with you for a long time. Di Standing’s remarkable talk. “A History of Underground Dean’, was one of those rare events. Set in the highly appropriate location of Clearwell Caves, Di entertained her audience with a wonderful talk and film. Cheryl Mayo’s cover photograph captures the atmosphere whilst members socialised over tea, cider and bread and cheese! As always John Powell has provided a warm, concise and expressive review of the event which you can find towards the back of this issue. What John has refrained from telling you is that those who helped set up the event down in the Caves ‘enjoyed’ the end of a bizarre Harry Potter convention, complete with a party of 70 from Germany who were appropriately dressed as Harry, or dragons, or monsters! Editor: Keith Walker Further thanks are due to John Powell for sourcing the interesting article 51 Lancaster Drive in the centre pages which features a walk taken locally in Victorian times. Lydney GL15 5SJ Many of you will have attended the 70th anniversary dinner held 01594 843310 recently at the Speech House. I was there along with my camera to NewsletterEditor capture the event. On reviewing my work the next day, I found to my @forestofdeanhistory.org.uk horror that not a single shot had been saved to memory.
