Public Participation Mrs Lucy Trott – spoke regarding agenda item 7925(c) re: pedestrian crossing at Bell Hill. It was noted that the school was currently without a lollipop person but it was also noted that the lollipop service did not cover pre-school hours. Mrs Trott reported that parents had expressed concern at the dangers of crossing Bell Hill with small children, due to the speed and volume of the traffic and asked for consideration to be given to a zebra or pelican crossing to address this problem. Cllr Scarrow confirmed that she shared the concerns raised and reported that the issue had been discussed at a recent governor’s meeting. She expressed concern that the 20 mph limit was not slowing the traffic down as it came into the village. Cllr Eastment reported that there were technical issues relating to the installation of any pedestrian crossing. He reported that the lollipop lady had left her post due to safety concerns. He also reported that the speed indicator device had been installed at the bottom of Bell Hill and the data would be extracted and reported to the police and to Highways.

  • Excursion to Radstock, 95
    46 Thirty-sixth Annual Meeting, the time of Elizabeth. The Spanish treasure ships brought much money into the country. Mr. Green said no doubt the reign of Queen Elizabeth was an extremely prosperous one. Holdings in the earlier times were very small. The yeomen were the freeholders or copy-holders, as distinguished from other cultivators of land let to farm. A labourer was totally distinct. Mr. Chisholm Batten, in the course of the evening, ex- hibited a silver cup or chalice, found in a priest’s coffin at Wells. The meeting then closed. The weather proved most unfavourable, a fine rain descend- ing steadily throughout the day. This being almost the first wet day, after an extraordinary and dry summer, the circum- stance was especially vexing; as, besides the fine views, the district to be traversed was of especial geological interest, and so required exactly opposite conditions. The breaks left Shepton at half-past nine, and, passing through Doulting by Long Cross, to Tad Hill, turned there to This was found undergoing ^‘restoration.” The Hon. Sec., in a few remarks, hoped the restoration would mean preservation. He also related the occurence of a singular outrage, about 1858, when a gun, loaded with blood instead of shot, was fired, during service, through the west window of the north aisle, at the incumbent, who was knocked out of the reading desk. Mr. Ferret said the most striking feature in the church was its beautiful and lofty western tower, of the best period of of Perpendicular. Situated on a high part of the Mendip district, it had evidently been built as a kind of land-mark, like the tower at Dundry.

  • Dedicattons of Tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©Ometsetsftire. “L
    DeDicattons of tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©ometsetsftire. BY THE KEY. E. H. BATES, M.A HE late Mr. W illiam Long contributed to the seventeenth “L volume of the Proceedings in 1871 a classified list of the Church Dedications given by Ecton in his Thesaurus Rerum Ecclesiasticarum, 1742. As Editor of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Kalendar my attention has been frequently drawn, from my own knowledge as well as by numerous correspon- dents, to the many errors and gaps in that list. It became plainly necessary to go behind the Thesaurus to the original sources of information. And here I may be allowed to repro- duce what I have already stated in the preface to the Kalendar for 1905. It should be clearly understood that there is no authoritative list in existence. Among the Public Becords are two works known as Pope Nicholas’ Taxatio of 1291, and the Valor Ec- clesiasticus of 27 Henry VIII (1536), containing the names of all parishes in England and Wales. These were primarily drawn up to ascertain the value of the benefices, and only in- cidentally, as in the case of towms with many churches, are the dedications added. The latter work, to which the title of V^ahr Ecclesiasticus or Liber Regis is generally given, was first printed in 1711 by J ohn Ecton. His preface contains a very interesting account of the early work of the Queen Anne’s Bounty Fund, of which he was Receiver, and of the serious state of affairs in the large towns which led to its foundation.
