  • A Pilgrimage to Avebury Stone Circles in Wiltshire
    BEST OF BRITAIN A pilgrimage to Avebury stone circles in Wiltshire ere are famous religious pilgrimages, there are also the pilgrimages that one does for oneself. It doesn't have to be on foot or by any particular mode of transport. It is nothing more than the journey of getting to the desired destination, in any way or form. For me, that desired destination was the stone circles of Avebury in Wiltshire, for years I’ve been yearning to sit in stone circles and visit the sacred sites of Europe. So, why visit Avebury, a place that is often sold to us as the poor cousin of the ever-famous Stonehenge? In real - ity, it is not less but much more. Why Avebury? is sacred Neolithic site is the largest set of stone circles out of the thousands in the United Kingdom and in the world. It is older than other sites, although the dating is sketchy. I've heard everything from 2600BC to 4500BC and it’s still up for discussion. Despite being a World Heritage site, Avebury is fully open to the public. Unlike Stonehenge, you can walk in and around the stones. It is accessible by public transport, buses stop in the middle of the village, and the entrance is free. As well as the stone cir - cles, there is also an avenue of stones that take you down to the West Kennet Long Barrow and Silbury Hill. Onsite for a small fee you can visit the museum and manor that are run by the National Trust.

  • Wiltshire Council Agenda Item No. Northern Area
    WILTSHIRE COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. NORTHERN AREA PLANNING COMMITTEE HIGHWAYS ACT S.119 APPLICATION TO DIVERT PUBLIC BRIDLEWAYS CALNE WITHOUT 89 (PART), 89A AND 89B AT THE MILL HOUSE, CALSTONE WELLINGTON Purpose of Report 1. To: (i) Consider an application for an Order to divert lengths of public bridleways at The Mill House, Calstone Wellington, Calne. (ii) Recommend that Wiltshire Council refuses the application for an Order to divert lengths of public bridleways at The Mill House, Calstone Wellington, Calne. The officers’ report and appendices are appended at Appendix 1. Appendix 1.F is a plan showing the existing route and the proposed change and is provided for reference purposes. Relevance to the Council’s Business Plan 2. Working with the local community to provide a rights of way network which is fit for purpose, making Wiltshire an even better place to live, work and visit. Background 3. Wiltshire Council has statutory duties to maintain the record of public rights of way in Wiltshire (excluding the Borough of Swindon), to maintain the rights of way shown therein, and to assert and protect them for the use and enjoyment of the public. These duties are not discretionary. 4. In addition to these duties the Council also has a power to make Orders to alter the rights of way network (though not for highways carrying a right for the public to use mechanically propelled vehicles). These Orders are known as public path Orders and they may create, extinguish or divert public rights of way. Wiltshire Council accepts applications for these Orders and processes them amongst work relating to its statutory duties.

  • The Society of Friends in Wiltshire1
    The Society of Friends in Wiltshire1 OR the work of George Fox in Wiltshire see Wilts Notes <§ Queries, ii, 125-9, and The Journal of George Fox, Fed. N. Penney (Cambridge Edn.). The subsequent history of the Quakers in the county can be traced from the MS. records of the various quarterly and monthly meetings, from the Friends' Book of Meetings published annually since 1789 and the List of Members of the Quarterly Meeting of Bristol and Somerset, published annually since 1874. For the MS. records see Jnl. of Friends' Hist. Soc., iv, 24. The records are now at Friends House, Euston Road, London. From the beginning of the eighteenth century, the Quakers' story is of a decline which was gradual until 1750 and thereafter very rapid. The Methodists and Moravians largely supplanted them. An interesting example of the change over from Quakerism to Methodism is to be found in Thomas R. Jones' The Departed Worthy (1857). This book tells the life story of Charles Maggs, a distinguished Melksham Methodist. When Maggs first went to Melksham just after 1800 he made the acquaintance of two Methodists named Abraham Shewring and Thomas Rutty. The family names of Shewring and Rutty both occur in Melksham Quaker records between 1700 and 1750. Even more interesting is the fact that Abraham Shewring was known as " the Quaker Methodist " and that Charles Maggs found that " the quiet manner in which the service was conducted scarcely suited his warm and earnest heart "* WILTSHIRE QUARTERLY MEETING, c. 1667-1785 By 1680 the number of Quaker meetings in Wilts had reached its maximum.

Application contents: Form 1 Notice of Application for Modification Order Form 2 Copy of Notice of Application for Modification Order Form 3 Certificate of Service of Notice of Application - no landowners identified Extract from a Finance Act Map 1910 showing an uncoloured section between hereditaments 69 and 21 coincident with the application route. NB On the 6th March 2012 officers wrote to Mr Fenwick and gave permission for him to post notice of application on site. This was done on the 9th March 2012 and Mr Fenwick returned Form 3 confirming this and enclosed a photograph of the notice prominently displayed. Officers have subsequently found that the north eastern end of the claimed route is registered to Mr D Tyler of Home Farm (see para. 4.0 Land Ownership). However, Mr Tyler would have passed by the site notice and has been consulted at an early stage, it is therefore considered he has not been disadvantaged by this omission.

  • Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages
    Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages Wiltshire is blessed with a fantastic variety of historic market towns and stunning picturesque villages, each one with something to offer. Here are a sample of Wiltshire’s beautiful market towns and villages. Amesbury Nestling within a loop of the River Avon alongside the A303, just 1½ miles from Stonehenge, historic Amesbury is a destination not to be missed. With recent evidence of a large settlement from 8820BC and a breath-taking Mesolithic collection, Amesbury History Centre will amaze visitors with its story of the town where history began. Bradford on Avon The unspoilt market town of Bradford on Avon offers a mix of delightful shops, restaurants, hotels and bed and breakfasts lining the narrow streets, not to mention a weekly market on Thursdays (8am-4pm). Still a natural focus at the centre of the town, the ancient bridge retains two of its 13th century arches and offers a fabulous view of the hillside above the town - dotted with the old weavers' cottages – and the river bank flanked by 19th century former cloth mills. Calne Calne evolved during the 18th and 19th centuries with the wool industry. Blending the old with the new, much of the original Calne is located along the River Marden where some of the historic buildings still remain. There is also the recently restored Castlefields Park with nature trails and cycle path easily accessible from the town centre. Castle Combe Set within the stunning Wiltshire Cotswolds, Castle Combe is a classically quaint English village. Often referred to as the ‘prettiest village in England’, it has even been featured regularly on the big screen – most recently in Hollywood blockbuster ‘The Wolfman’ and Stephen Spielberg’s ‘War Horse’.
