  • Down Hatherley – a Short History
    Down Hatherley – A Short History W.D. Pereira (copyright rests with Helen Hail) W.D. Pereira The village of Down Hatherley, close to the River Severn in Gloucestershire, England, has been inhabited for almost 2000 years. A 6 acre field contains the remains of a Roman villa which although never formally excavated has produced coins and a brooch of that period. A Saxon burial site has also been found in the same field. The name Hatherley in the Domesday Book stems from the word Atherlai meaning a hawthorn clearing. There is also an Up Hatherley on higher ground away from the river. In the Domesday survey of 1086 it is recorded that one Edmar a thane held Atherlai during the reign of Edward the Confessor (1042-1066). It seems after the death of Edward, Atherlai was appropriated by King Harold. On Harold’s defeat and death at Hastings in 1066, the land was recorded under the title of Terra Regis, with others which William the Conqueror seized 1 as his own property. The Domesday Book incidentally was conceived at the Gloucester Parliament before the one in Westminster. Down Hatherley was later attached to a Baron Giffard and in 1311 held by a Sir John de Wyllenton until being passed on by marriage to a Sir John Willoughby in 1389. Notably a Sir Fulke Greville (1554-1628) succeeded to the estate, again through marriage. Greville himself served at the royal courts of both Queen Elizabeth I and King James I, holding several high government offices. He had been knighted by the Queen and he owned Warwick Castle so Down Hatherley was a minor property.

Introduction Gloucestershire’s Local Area Agreement is now in its second year. This refreshed LAA builds on the strong foundations provided by our recently-agreed Sustainable Community Strategy, and on the priorities we set out in our first Local Area Agreement. This last year has seen partners focussing their efforts on the outcomes agreed at the beginning of April 2007. Partners have worked together to target issues ranging from reducing anti-social behaviour to promoting renewable energy installations and increasing the number of adults gaining NVQ2-level qualifications. In some areas partners have achieved national acclaim – Gloucestershire’s Warm and Well scheme has been held up as a national exemplar by DeFRA – and in all areas we have worked to join up our efforts to tackle what is important to local people. Over the coming three years partners will work to improve outcomes for children, support people back into work, improve skills for all age groups, reduce smoking, support carers, help older people to live more independent lives, tackle fuel poverty, address the causes and consequences of climate change, tackle crime and the fear of crime, and continue to make Gloucestershire a place where people want to live, work and visit.

  • Summer 2018 All Freetext Comments from Engagement Survey
    Outcome of Engagement Report – Summer 2018 All freetext comments from engagement survey respondents I think that the new community hospital should be in or near Cinderford because: It is central to the forest It is the most accessible part of the forest when there is severe weather. It is a central location within the forest, with good connections to other areas of the forest and wider Gloucestershire. It would make transferring between hospitals easier for patients. as part of my work role I cover the Forest of Dean currently based at the Dilke, on a one hour response time I can be anywhere in the Forest within this time frame based in either Coleford or Cinderford its central to North Forest - Maisemore, Corse, etc. More of a community area. This seems a better option as it is central to the forest and would be accessible to many. it would be in our locality and easiest to reach. It has good communications and is closest to my locality ITS CENTRAL TO THE WHOLE FOD CATCHMENT AREA Cinderford is a central location for residents across the FOD, when you take in locations in the Forest such as Newent, Coleford or Lydney would be too far to travel. It is in the most central location, with reasonably good public transport. If it was in Lydney this would be difficult for some people to access, especially people from Newent and surrounding areas. It is situated centrally between Lydney and Gloucester Central to the Forest. Close to area of high deprivation who may otherwise struggle to access healthcare.
