    Application Number: WD/D/19/002903 Site address: Osmington Mills Holidays, Mills Road, Osmington Mills, Weymouth DT3 6HB Proposal: Use of land as a year round holiday park. Applicant name: Waterside Holiday Group Case Officer: Bob Burden Ward Member(s): Cllr Nick Ireland 2. Summary of Recommendation: Recommendation A: That the Committee would be minded to grant the application subject to the conditions and the completion of a section 106 agreement within 6 months of today’s date (for an ecological contribution of £1,911.30 to be paid prior to commencement of the development) as set out in the report and recommends that the Head of Planning determines the application accordingly. Recommendation B: That the committee would be minded to refuse the application for the reasons set out below if the legal agreement under Section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) is not completed within 6 months from today’s date or such extended time as agreed by the Head of Planning and recommends that the Head of Planning determines the application accordingly: 1. In the absence of a satisfactory completed legal agreement there would be no mechanism to ensure payment of the required ecological contribution (£1,911- 30) in order to satisfactorily mitigate for the impacts of the development on the European protected heathlands. In these circumstances the scheme would be contrary to the Dorset Heathlands Planning Framework (2020-2025), Policy ENV2 of the West Dorset, Weymouth and Portland Local Plan 2015 and the NPPF (2019). 3. Reason for the recommendation: • Para 14 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) sets out that permission should be granted for sustainable development unless specific policies in the NPPF indicate otherwise.

  • “Local Walks from Weymouth”
    “ Local walks from Weymouth” Picture by Ron Glynn WELCOME TO OUR WALKS LOG, October 2017 to March 2020. When I started this log, my first job was to mark all our start points on my essential piece of equipment, the 1; 25000 OS map, OL 15, Purbeck and South Dorset. I was surprised and pleased to see how we had speckled the map, given that the venues were chosen mainly for free parking! But we had covered the area from west to east, with each venue leading to not only our walk(s) shown later but also to areas ripe for further exploration. So given that each walk is 2 ½ to 3 ½ miles or 4/5kms or 7/9000 steps and takes around 1 ½ hours what do you need to join in? Apart from boots/trainers, layered clothing, hat, stick and dog (if owned or borrowed!) your essential equipment is a map, as above, to which you can add modern adjuncts if you wish. NB: 1:25,000 means that roughly 2 inches on the map represents 1 mile on the ground. Each map is covered by a grid of 1 mile squares, on our map numbered 53 to 76 west to east and 73 to 95 south to north. (The map is double sided with Purbeck on the back). On our list of start points there are BOLD 6 figure numbers. These are GRID REFERENCES and from them you can find anywhere on the map. So, for example, the Heights Hotel, 5 in our list is 69 2 73 3, the 3rd and 6th numbers being points.

  • Origins of the Wareham Surname
    Origins of the Wareham Surname By Mark Wareham of Salisbury, Wiltshire (born Shaftesbury, Dorset) Updated 8th April 2011 In this essay I discuss various possible ancestral backgrounds of the Wareham families who are mainly based in southern England. I do not believe that all Warehams are related by blood and I do not think there is one common root to the family name. For example my line comes through a family in Shroton in north Dorset in 1700 and yet I cannot find any direct link to a neighbouring Wareham family in Child Okeford, even through sibling branches. I think that there are many different Wareham families who have different backgrounds and reasons why the family name was adopted. I cannot prove for certain why my particular family adopted the Wareham family name as I can only trace my line back to the late 17th century. If you are descended from a Wareham why do you think your branch had the name? Have you found the reason for the name or like me can you only go back so far till when written records started? My Wareham line were labourers and so records of their lives do not go back much beyond the start of parish registers started showing their baptisms, marriages and burials but not why they started to be called Wareham. I’ll start though with an explanation of the name of Wareham. The Wareham surname History of surnames Surnames in England date back to Norman times and aristocratic families held them from early medieval times. Surnames became common to everyone in the 15th and 16th centuries and during the reign of Henry VIII it became the law that matrimonial baptisms adopted the surname of the father.
