In the South East our Register now has 506 assets, down from 534 last year. However, the less good news is the increase for the first time in the number of sites on the Register which are capable of re-use. This suggests that fewer buildings and structures are economic to repair these days, which makes the problem of how to reduce risk a more difficult nut to crack. Nevertheless, our undaunted local Heritage at Risk team, led by Clare Charlesworth, continues to work with owners, funders, stakeholders and especially volunteers, to find the right solutions for sites on the Register. Andy Brown Planning Director, South East 2016 has been a terrific England’s Countryside Stewardship schemes, we are year for Heritage at Risk removing 22 monuments and 20 places of worship from in the South East.

We are delighted to be able to remove it from the South East Heritage at Risk Register this year. This follows a comprehensive programme of repairs to the folly, which sits in a landscape garden. The repairs were funded by Natural England, through their Environmental Stewardship Scheme (now superseded by the Countryside Stewardship Scheme), and the owner’s professional team were advised by architects and surveyors from Historic England. Work was completed in late 2015 and is an excellent example of partnership working between both bodies. The folly had fallen into a state of disrepair through a lack of maintenance over a number of years, but when ownership arrangements changed, the Estate Trustees correct materials. The roof has also been repaired, and sought funding to improve the condition. The folly the surrounding vegetation controlled.

    Britain’s Great Little Railways Newsletter 60 July 2015 Jack, the Exbury Gardens Railway Dog Railway staff and regular visitors were saddened recently to learn of the death of "Jack The Railway Dog". The railway yard was like a home from home for Jack who quickly endeared himself to everyone as he oversaw the engine preparation each morning from the comfort of his bed outside the engine shed. This was often followed by a brisk walk to carry out the daily track inspection with a member of the railway team. Following a quick snack in the mess room. it was then time to stroll up the platform to supervise the loading of the passengers before jumping into the guards van for a circuit or two of "Guard Dog" duties. This was regularly followed by a photo shoot as passengers waited in line to take a snap of our little colleague as he rested on the soft cushion of the guards seat. The highlight of Jack's day was lunchtime when he eagerly awaited the unwrapping of my sausage sandwiches, said railway foreman Ian Wilson who, to every ones amusement, often spoke to Jack in an American accent as he was born in Texas. Our little friend will be sadly missed.

  • The Fall of the House of Crevequer
    The fall of the house of Crevequer Colin Flight In about the year 1250, on occasions when he had his children and grand- children gathered around him at Leeds Castle, Hamo de Crevequer might have been excused for thinking that his family’s future was secure. Hamo was in his sixties by this time, and had been lord of the barony of Creve- quer for more than thirty years. He had been married twice. By his first wife, long since dead, he had three grown-up sons; the eldest of these, named Hamo like his father, was himself already married and the father of three sons. Hamo’s second wife, Matildis, was the only daughter of Willelm de Averenches, lord of the barony of Folkestone, or, as it was of- ten called, the barony of Averenches. When Willelm died, in 1230, he left an under-age son – Matildis’s younger brother, named Willelm like his fa- ther – as the prospective heir; but the son died, still under age, in 1235–6, and Matildis at once became the sole heir to her father’s barony. Since then, in right of his wife, Hamo had been in possession of the barony of Averenches, together with his own. This second marriage produced a sec- ond brood of children, including a son named Willelm (like his grandfa- ther). Sooner rather than later, Hamo would have to die; but he seemed to have done more than enough to perpetuate the family name. The younger Hamo stood ready to inherit the barony of Crevequer. Of course he would have no claim on his step-mother’s inheritance, the barony of Averenches; but his half-brother, Willelm, stood in line for that.

  • Britain's Great Little Railways Newsletter 63 April 2016 AGM And
    Britain’s Great Little Railways Newsletter 63 April 2016 AGM and SPRING GENERAL MEETINGS At 10.15 when I arrived at the Bradford Arms there was a blizzard in full progress and I wondered how many members would make it and even if we would be able to get home after the meeting. In the end the snow stopped fairly quickly and although the sun never came out the weather was just about acceptable for a train ride in the afternoon. Bruce Whalley hosted the meeting in the Bradford Arms and at his railway in the afternoon. The meeting saw the retirement of Maureen Atkinson, our Treasurer and also Mike Hanson. I would like to thank them both for the dedicated work that they have put in to assist the smooth running of BGLR. Peter Jackson has been appointed as our new Treasurer and can be contacted at [email protected] or on 07711 787289. His postal address is 35 Cowley Avenue, Greenhithe, Dartford. DA9 9QA The minutes of the two meetings have been circulated to all members and posted on the Members Only section of the website along with the Year End Accounts. The meetings were lively and interesting and it was good to meet the owners of the proposed Fenn Bell Miniature Railway which is currently in the planning application stage. After a pleasant lunch and distribution of the 2016 Posters and Brochures the members drove the short distance to Weston Park to play trains. A ride behind the Garrett was especially good despite the wind and near freezing temperature.

  • Total Carbon Footprint Per Capita
    District Data Analysis Service August 2021 Chart of the month August 2021 – Total carbon footprint per capita This month’s chart looks at the carbon footprint per person based on seven underlying sources of emissions data: Electricity, Gas, Other Heating, Car Driving, Van Driving, Flights, and Consumption of goods and services. This is particularly interesting given the current worldwide environmental crisis. This data has been obtained from the place-based carbon calculator produced with funding from UK Research and Innovation through the Centre for Research into Energy Demand Solutions. The areas in the maps are displayed at Lower-layer Super Output Area (LSOA) level. This dataset has been made available in July 2021. For more information, please visit the Place-Based Carbon calculator. Key findings: Overall, all the districts in Oxfordshire scored above the England overall carbon footprint of 8,355 Kg CO2 per capita, where highest means worst and lowest means best. Areas with the highest scores in the districts were Flights, Cars, Food & Drink, and Recreation. The following chart shows the amount of Kg CO2 for every source in England compared to the districts in Oxfordshire. The dashed line (---) across the chart shows the England target for 2032 (2,849).

  • Historic Landscape Character Areas and Their Special Qualities and Features of Significance
    Historic Landscape Character Areas and their special qualities and features of significance Volume 1 Third Edition March 2016 Wyvern Heritage and Landscape Consultancy Emma Rouse, Wyvern Heritage and Landscape Consultancy www.wyvernheritage.co.uk – [email protected] – 01747 870810 March 2016 – Third Edition Summary The North Wessex Downs AONB is one of the most attractive and fascinating landscapes of England and Wales. Its beauty is the result of many centuries of human influence on the countryside and the daily interaction of people with nature. The history of these outstanding landscapes is fundamental to its present‐day appearance and to the importance which society accords it. If these essential qualities are to be retained in the future, as the countryside continues to evolve, it is vital that the heritage of the AONB is understood and valued by those charged with its care and management, and is enjoyed and celebrated by local communities. The North Wessex Downs is an ancient landscape. The archaeology is immensely rich, with many of its monuments ranking among the most impressive in Europe. However, the past is etched in every facet of the landscape – in the fields and woods, tracks and lanes, villages and hamlets – and plays a major part in defining its present‐day character. Despite the importance of individual archaeological and historic sites, the complex story of the North Wessex Downs cannot be fully appreciated without a complementary awareness of the character of the wider historic landscape, its time depth and settlement evolution. This wider character can be broken down into its constituent parts.
