Settrington Village Welcome & Information Pack – 2020 This is the latest update of the original Information Folder which the Parish Council endorsed in April 2012 under the Neighbourhood Watch ‘banner’. It has since been adopted by the Parish Council. It is hoped that both new and existing residents will find the contents to be a useful reference. If you feel that in producing this Pack we have overlooked the inclusion of something which would be of useful general interest, we would welcome your feedback. Every organisation in the parish has, we hope, been invited to include its information sheet. If your Club or organisation has been inadvertently missed and you would like information included in future updates of the Welcome & Information Pack, or if your entry needs updating, please contact the Parish Clerk, Bruce Skinner, on: Tel.No. 01944 768276 or E-mail: [email protected] The Village Website address is: https://settrington.ryedaleconnect.org.uk/ July 2020 1 CONTENTS Item Subject 1 Parish Council 2 Neighbourhood Watch 3 Litter Pickers 4 Neighbourhood Safety 5 Village Hall 6 Village Design Statement - extracts 7 Village Interest Group 8 School 9 Church 10 Sports & Pastimes 11 Bowls Club 12 Tennis Club 13 Cricket 14 Scouts & Cubs 15 Bus Timetable 16 Village Houses Directory 2 1 - Settrington Parish Council The Parish Council is a statutory body which oversees local affairs. It consists of 9 members who are elected every four years. It is responsible for such matters as village street lighting, grass-cutting and Settrington Beck, and for liaison with other statutory bodies such as Ryedale District Council, NYCC Highways, etc. Ryedale District Council consults the Parish Council with regard to planning, etc. matters, however the latter can only advise; decisions rest with the District Council. Meetings of the Council are held regularly; anyone may attend them. The Agenda and Minutes are posted on the Parish Council Notice Board and on the village website; the annual accounts, which show how the local precept is utilised, are available for scrutiny after having been audited. The Clerk to the Parish Council is Bruce Skinner.

Settrington Neighbourhood Watch John Harrison is the central coordinator and the Harrison Hire & Sales (HHS) office is the coordination centre, where residents can call or ring (Tel: 01944 768441) if they have something to report, or ask for information on anything concerning the village. Information received from the police about happenings in the area, is posted on the Parish Council Notice Board, situated next to the School.

NW Coordinators will deliver Parish Council Welcome/ Information Packs to new residents, and window or Postbox stickers as required.

Where have we come from? 2. Where are we now? 3. Where are we going? To examine the issues presented by items 2 and 3, five community working groups were established to review, record and make recommendations on: a) Landscape, ecology, trees, etc. b) Roads, footpaths, verges, ditches, boundary walls, fences. etc. c) Road signs & names, addresses, overhead cables, streetlights, etc. d) Recreation, sports and play areas e) Building appraisal and guidelines, future developments, etc. The contents of the current document, which was formally adopted by Ryedale District Council in September 2013 and is published on the village website, are largely the fruits of the working of those groups. However, whilst this document retains the basic 'three questions' objective, in order to achieve the purpose of a Village Design Statement (VDS), its emphasis shifted somewhat towards the purpose of the third question, 'Where are we going?'.
