  • Great Bardfield
    The Hundred Parishes An introduction to GREAT BARDFIELD Location: 7 miles northeast of Great Dunmow. Ordnance Survey grid square: TL6730. Postcode: CM7 4SD. Access: B1057. Buses 9/10 to Braintree (Mon-Fri), 16 to Chelmsford (Mon-Sat), 17 to Saffron Walden (Tuesday and Friday only). County: Essex. District: Braintree. Population: 1,227 in 2011. The parish of Great Bardfield lies on the southern aspect of the River Pant, just a few miles upstream from Braintree where it becomes the River Blackwater. Great Bardfield is a place of considerable historic, architectural and cultural interest. Many have considered it the quintessential English village, not least the group known as the Bardfield Artists, many of whom chose to settle here in the period 1930s to1950s. Perhaps the best known of these artists, Edward Bawden, dedicated a series of 16 lithographs, ‘Life in an English Village’, to the shops and workplaces of local tradesmen and women, and in doing so has preserved a record of a now vanished way of village life. The war artist Eric Ravilious (whose wood engraving of Great Bardfield Church appears at the top of this page) spent some years here, as did the ‘Colonel Blimp’ cartoonist David Low who lived in Serjeant Bendlowe’s Cottage (seen here) and Marianne Straub, some of whose textiles are retained in the Warner Textile Archive in Braintree. There were numerous others, and a series of ‘open house’ exhibitions during the 1950s served to put Great Bardfield on the national cultural map. Much of the work of the Bardfield Artists can be viewed today at the Fry Art Gallery in Saffron Walden.

  • Pick of the Churches
    Pick of the Churches The East of England is famous for its superb collection of churches. They are one of the nation's great treasures. Introduction There are hundreds of churches in the region. Every village has one, some villages have two, and sometimes a lonely church in a field is the only indication that a village existed there at all. Many of these churches have foundations going right back to the dawn of Christianity, during the four centuries of Roman occupation from AD43. Each would claim to be the best - and indeed, all have one or many splendid and redeeming features, from ornate gilt encrusted screens to an ancient font. The history of England is accurately reflected in our churches - if only as a tantalising glimpse of the really creative years between the 1100's to the 1400's. From these years, come the four great features which are particularly associated with the region. - Round Towers - unique and distinctive, they evolved in the 11th C. due to the lack and supply of large local building stone. - Hammerbeam Roofs - wide, brave and ornate, and sometimes strewn with angels. Just lay on the floor and look up! - Flint Flushwork - beautiful patterns made by splitting flints to expose a hard, shiny surface, and then setting them in the wall. Often it is used to decorate towers, porches and parapets. - Seven Sacrament Fonts - ancient and splendid, with each panel illustrating in turn Baptism, Confirmation, Mass, Penance, Extreme Unction, Ordination and Matrimony. Bedfordshire Ampthill - tomb of Richard Nicholls (first governor of Long Island USA), including cannonball which killed him.

  • Night Flights RSP Is Now Suggesting a Scheduled Flight Ban Between 2300 and 0600
    Night Flights RSP is now suggesting a scheduled flight ban between 2300 and 0600. Of course, aviation night is normally 2300 to 0700. Also, cargo flights are predominantly chartered rather than scheduled and so there will be no night time ban on them. RSP is inconsistent in its new Noise Mitigation Plan about what would and would not be allowed. Para 1.4 says it won’t allow night take-offs, but it will allow unscheduled landings at night. Para 1.7 then says “Each landing and take-off at the airport during the Night Time Period is to count towards this annual quota” which means that night take-offs will be allowed. Which is it? RSP is still refusing to cap night ATMs. It says it will probably have 6.7 or 7.7 night flights a night on average. It is not clear to me how this relates to the scheduled night flights that will start at 0600. A few years ago Infratil submitted a night flight application for 7.7 flights a night. Infratil asked for a Quota Count of 1,995 a year. Independent experts Bureau Veritas concluded that the environmental downsides of these 7.7 night flights on average per night outweighed any socio-economic gain for this level of night flights. The public voted overwhelmingly against this proposal. TDC did not approve the proposal. Canterbury did not support the proposal. The RSP proposal is for roughly the same number of night flights (as far as we can tell as there no cap) but for a much higher quota count of 3,028.
