TIMELINE The earliest entries recorded just the date and names of the bride and groom. Gradually more information was added, sometimes at the behest of the Vicar, but more often as a result of new legislation. 1653 Commonwealth Marriages Act which created the position of Registrar for each parish. He was required to check the names and place of abode of the bride and groom, ensure proper consent of their parents or guardians and arrange for publication of the intended marriage for at least three weeks prior to the ceremony. The marriage then had to be solemnised before a Justice of the Peace. From this date the place of abode of bride and groom was recorded, as were some details of the parents. 1660 Restoration of Charles II. From this date the place of residence of bride and groom continued to be recorded, but additional information regarding parents gradually lapsed. 1752 Britain changed over from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar in September, 1752 in order to bring the country into line with Catholic Europe. 11 days were lost between the 3rd and 14th September. 1752. At the same time the official start of the year was changed from 25th March to 1st January. This transcription records marriages between 1st January and 24th March in those years prior to 1752 as, for example, 12.3.1661/2. The first year (1661) is the date under the Julian or Old Style calendar and the second (1662) that under the Gregorian or New Style calendar 1754 Hardwicke's Marriage Act (1753) which became Law on 25th March, 1754. Also known as “An Act for the Better Prevention of Clandestine Marriage”. it was the first statutory legislation in England and Wales to require a formal ceremony of marriage. Marriages had to be witnessed and the witnesses names and signatures were recorded in the Register. Also, information was generally recorded on the status and occupation of the bride and groom. 1813 George Rose's Act (1812) which became Law on 1st January, 1813 stipulated that all registers had to be pre-printed with standardised layout and content. From this date, the amount of information recorded increased considerably CHARDSTOCK ST.

  • Chardstock Baptisms to 1879
    CHARDSTOCK ST. ANDREWS CHURCH - BAPTISMS Source: Chardstock Parish Registers and Bishop’s Transcripts Dates: 1579 to 1582 from Bishop’s Transcripts 1597 to 1846 transcripts from Parish Registers, except periods March 1707 to April 1713, July 1713 to August 1714 and August 1714 to June 1716 for which no records are available. 1847 to 1879 transcripts have been taken from photocopies of the Bishop’s Transcripts of the Chardstock Parish Registers, held in Wiltshire Records Office. Where these were unclear, they have been checked against microfiches of the originals, held in Devon Records Office, and altered as appropriate. There are a number of inconsistencies between the two versions; for instance Susan Cozins in the Bishop’s Transcript appears as Susan Cousins in the Parish Register. The Wiltshire records for years 1850, 1856, 1858 1862, 1864, 1865, 1868, 1871, 1873 and 1876 are missing, either because they were not copied originally or because they have been lost. These gaps have been made good from the Devon Records Office, and are included within this transcript. Both Parish Registers and Bishop’s Transcripts are given for the years 1847, 1848, 1849 and 1850. The researcher is strongly advised to consult the original copies at Wiltshire or Devon Record Office, and use these transcriptions only as a guide to what these sources contain. When using this site, the following points should also be borne in mind: Abbreviations have been avoided wherever possible and full stops have not been used in names, thus Wm C. Watts in the register appears as William C Watts. This measure is designed to assist word search software programmes.

RECOMMENDATION: Approval with conditions Crown Copyright and database rights 2020 Ordnance Survey 100023746 Committee Date: 4th November 2020 Yarty Target Date: (Chardstock) 20/0375/FUL 12.06.2020 Applicant: Mrs Gill Keam Location: Fordings Chardstock Proposal: Construction of pitch roof and dormer window to existing garage for the conversion and provision of ancillary living accommodation. RECOMMENDATION: Approval with conditions EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This application has been referred to Committee following a Chairman’s Delegation meeting so that Members can consider the impacts from the ancillary accommodation on the area. The application proposes the conversion and upward extension of an existing garage to form ancillary living accommodation. The application does not propose a separate dwelling and if consent were granted, planning permission would be required for the building to be used as a dwelling independent of the Fordings. The site lies with the AONB, adjoins the Conservation Area and is adjacent to two listed buildings. The applicant is not required to demonstrate a need for the extension or to justify its size (although they have advised it is to enable the applicant to care for an elderly parent), and it is for Members to consider the physical and visual impact from the extension that represents additional living accommodation for the main house, albeit in a detached form. The main impacts are from the addition of the roof, dormer window and changes to the appearance of the garage.
