  • Cawthorne Village Design Statement
    DRAFT Supplementary Planning Document CAWTHORNE VILLAGE DESIGN STATEMENT This guidance has been prepared by the Village Design Group supported by Cawthorne Parish Council, and updated in partnership with the Barnsley MBC. The Parish Council asked BMBC to adopt the design statement as supplementary guidance which supports the Local Plan (Adopted January 2019) and will be used to help make decisions on planning applications in Cawthorne. A Statement from the Design Group Many of us take for granted our lovely old village with its strong sense of identity. We would be wrong, however, to assume that life in Cawthorne will continue unchanged. Villages and communities constantly evolve as does their way of life. For a village of some 1300 or so residents the community is very fortunate to have a well-attended Parish Church and Methodist Chapel, a successful Junior and Infant School, a Pub, a Post Office, two Clubs, a Restaurant, Village Shops and the award winning Victorian Jubilee Museum. Many of these facilities are supported by a host of voluntary village organisations which cater for a wide range of leisure activities for all age groups. This rich pattern of village life will not automatically continue forever and we should all work to ensure our village retains what is left of our traditional rural way of life. The village design statement briefly describes Cawthorne as it is today and highlights the qualities valued by residents. The statement has been written by Cawthorne residents with input from BMBC so that local knowledge, views and ideas may contribute to the growth and prosperity of the village, and to a high quality environment.

The Register provides an Wannual snapshot of historic sites known to be at risk from neglect, decay or inappropriate development. Nationally, there are more barrows on the Register than any other type of site. The main risk to their survival is ploughing. The good news is that since 2014 we have reduced the number of barrows at risk by over 130, by working with owners and, in particular, Natural England to improve their management. This picture is repeated in Yorkshire, where the greatest concentration of barrows at risk is in the rich farmland of the Wolds.

  • Samuel Swift (1846–1929) – a Life Set in Stone 107
    Samuel Swift (1846–1929) 105 – A Life Set in Stone family roots being born into a family tradition of stonemasons dating back 200 years might have been quite daunting for a child. Samuel Swift’s family trade as stonemasons and builders dated back to the 17th century. Fortunately by the time he was a teenager, Samuel was showing a considerable talent for stone carving. This aptitude turned into his life’s work, beautifying England’s churches, cathedrals and public buildings. Samuel’s grandparents were George and Sarah Swift of Cawthorne. George was a stonemason and Sarah a schoolmistress. Samuel’s father Benjamin was their youngest surviving child. He became a stonemason and ultimately a builder, working on contracts in the Cawthorne area. In 1842 he married Caroline, the daughter of John Puddephatt from Norfolk. John had moved the family to Samuel Swift © Errington Cawthorne to become an excise man at the malt kilns at the top of Taylor Hill owned by the Clark family. At the time the canal reached Cawthorne Basin and they were able to move their belongings, from Norfolk, entirely by water. The Swift and Puddephatt families were well respected in the village. Cawthorne is a rural village and then was part of the Cannon Hall estate owned by Walter Spencer Stanhope. It had its own industries such as a saw mill and a tannery, as well as a post office, a village school and both an Anglican church and a Methodist church. The estate was managed from the Spencer Stanhope family home, Cannon Hall, which stands on the hill above the village.

  • The Church of All Saints, Clayton West 1875 - 1975
    THE CHURCH OF ALL SAINTS, CLAYTON WEST 1875 - 1975. On Thursday, 1st. April. 1875, Dr. Bickersteth, Bishop of Ripon consecrated the new church of All Saints to serve the prosperous and expanding village of Clayton West in the parish of High Hoyland. This year we celebrate the centenary of this event and it cannot be allowed to pass without recording the reason for the building of this Church, the part it has played in the life of the parish, together with an account of the part it has to play in the next century. No one knows when the Christian gospel first came to this parish, but archeological evidence points to a preaching station being established at High Hoyland by 800 A.D. The early mission priest, if the account of the Venerable Bede is correct, came from the Columban monastery situated in the wood between Dewsbury and Leeds. Before the Norman Conquest, High Hoyland, in common with Kirkburton and Emley, were in the parish of Dewsbury, in which parish it remained until the twelfth century. Whether there was a church building in these early days is unknown and, contrary to many popular reports, there is no reference to a church in the Doomsday Book, but that does not mean such a building was non existent. It was no part of the Domesday commissioner’s duties to record churches unless such a building was directly concerned with landowning. The first concrete evidence comes from the early years of the reign of Henry II. The period from 1150 to 1170 was one in which a large number of churches were erected in this area.

What is a Neighbourhood Development Plan? 1.1 Neighbourhood Development Plans (NDPs) are a new type of planning policy document, prepared by Parish Councils and some other bodies to guide new development within a defined area, such as a parish. They are used alongside Local Authority (here, Barnsley MBC) and national planning policy documents, to help determine planning applications. NDPs are powerful tools and present significant opportunities for local people to have a real say in how, and where, development should happen within their local area. 1.2 A NDP can cover a range of planning related issues, or just have one, single policy. This document has been prepared as a first step in setting out the possible scope and range of planning issues the Cawthorne Parish NDP could cover, and possible options for policies to address these issues.
