Local Transport Plan for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. It replaces the Interim Local Transport Plan, which was published in June 2017 and was based upon the existing Local Transport Plans for Cambridgeshire (Local Transport Plan 3) and Peterborough (Local Transport Plan 4). The Plan describes how transport interventions can be used to address current and future challenges and opportunities for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. It sets out the policies and strategies needed to secure growth and ensure that planned large-scale development can take place in the county in a sustainable way. This Local Transport Plan has been produced in partnership with Peterborough City Council, Cambridgeshire County Council, the Greater Cambridge Partnership, and the city and District Councils of Cambridge, East Cambridgeshire, Fenland, Huntingdonshire and South Cambridgeshire. Engagement has taken place throughout with several of central government’s arm’s length bodies such as Highways England and Network Rail, as well as neighbouring transport and highway authorities. In addition to working with public sector partners, our work has also been informed by wider stakeholder engagement, including with transport operators; industry groups; and community organisations. The Plan is split in to three main parts: This Local Transport Plan sets out the vision, goals and objectives that define how transport will support the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority’s (Combined Authority) Growth Ambition, and our approach to meeting these objectives. A summary of the plan is provided in this Executive Summary. The Transport Delivery Plan summarises the projects that the Combined Authority – together with our partners – aims to deliver over the lifetime of the Local Transport Plan, and the mechanisms through which they will be delivered. It also describes how the plan will be monitored, reviewed and updated through time, and the roles and responsibilities of the Combined Authority and its delivery partners (separate annex). Our Policies describes requirements related to transport planning and design, delivery, and operation and maintenance for the Combined Authority, our public sector partners, and key private

  • Help to Heat Local Authority Flexible Eligibility Statement of Intent
    APPENDIX 2 Energy Company Obligation: Help to Heat Local Authority Flexible Eligibility Statement of Intent On behalf of Action on Energy Cambridgeshire including: Cambridge City Council, East Cambridgeshire District Council, Fenland District Council, Huntingdonshire District Council and South Cambridgeshire District Council. Date of publication: **TBC** Version: 1.4 URL: [insert webpage SOI has been published on] 1) Introduction 1.1. Fuel poverty in England is measured using the Low Income High Costs (LIHC) indicator, which considers a household to be fuel poor if: they have required fuel costs that are above average (the national median level); and were they to spend that amount, they would be left with a residual income below the official poverty line.1 1.2. Nationally the 2015 figures for England estimate that 2.5 million households suffer from fuel poverty, 11% the total.2 Living in a cold home doubles the risk of respiratory problems in children; increases the risk of minor illnesses; exacerbates existing conditions such as arthritis and is associated with 3 times the level of excess winter deaths as the warmest homes.3 1.3. Action on Energy Cambridgeshire is a collective of the city and district councils that work together for mutual benefit in addressing fuel poverty. We welcome the introduction of Flexible Eligibility as part of the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) as it will allow us to support additional vulnerable households under broader criteria. 1.4. Fuel Poverty is a serious concern in our county and affects over 19,000 households4 contributing to more than 800 Excess Winter Deaths on average each year.5 Although our collective actions helped reduce fuel poverty across the county by an estimated 1468 households from 2013-2015 however there is still more to be done.

  • Paper on the Origins of the MONKS Surname
    monksname.doc The Derivation in England of the Family Names of MONK and MONKS, (and their phonetic variations). Based on research by Peter MONCK.1 Overview The names evolved from William LE MOIGNE, from St Lo in Normandy who came to England with William the Conquerer. In French the name means “the Monk”. King William gave Le Moigne the manor of Owers in Devon, where he settled. In England the name evolved to MOIGNE, MOINE, MOYNE and MOYGNE (with and without the prefix ‘le’). The Latin version of the Norman name, as used in medieval times in the church, was MONACHUS, from which DE MONACHO, MONIAC, MONKYS and the many phonetic variations of MONK and MONKS derived (for example: MONKE(S); MONCK(S); MUNKE(S); MUNCKE (S); MOUNK(S); MOUNKE(S)). A clear evolutionary trail for these early developments of the name is obtained from records associated with property owned by the families over several centuries, as illustrated below. More recently, from the late 18th century, parish records show variations within the one family group (for example children and grandchildren of William MONKS and Ann née FLOOK, who married at Holy Trinity, Stapleton, Gloucestershire, in 1765, were christened variously as MONKS, MONK, and MOUNKS.) Ralph, a son or grandson of William Le Moigne, was held in sufficient esteem by Henry 1st to be created a Grand Sergeant (a member of the inner court) and Larderer- in-Chief to the Kings of England. For this service he was granted 50 hides of land in five manors: Shipton Moigne in Gloucestershire (21 hides); Maddington in Wiltshire (4 hides); Great Easton in Essex (10 hides); Owermoigne in Dorset (10 hides); and Lambourne in Berkshire (5 hides).

  • Chapter 16 Marholm Village and Buildings
    Chapter 16 Marholm Village and Buildings History of the Village Marholm village lies approximately four miles West of Peterborough and one mile from the seat of the Fitzwilliam family at Milton Hall. The parish covers some fourteen hundred acres, with the village positioned roughly in the centre. Today it remains a peaceful, largely agricultural community of some two hundred people. Although during the past fifty years the domination of agriculture has diminished, the village retains a rural feel, and in many ways is unchanged from its earlier history, despite the modern development, and proximity to a burgeoning city. To a large extent, this tranquillity has been preserved by the protection derived from Milton Estate, which has retained ownership of much of the property in the village. In addition, the Estate has curtailed further encroachment from the city beyond Mucklands Wood to the East, which delineates the border of Milton’s sales, in the 1960s, of land to the Peterborough Development Corporation for the expansion of the city. The name of the village most probably derives from ‘mere’, meaning pool, and ‘ham’, or settlement, and may refer to the pools by the Manor House. During the Middle Ages, the name was alternatively Marham, Marreham, Marrenham, Mareham, Morham and Marhome. By the 18th century it was commonly referred to as Marham and later known by the present spelling, Marholm [1]. Early History The early history of the village is obscure, with few known archaeological sites. Not surprisingly, however, in view of its proximity to the flourishing Roman settlement in Castor, there is some evidence of their presence in the area now embraced by Marholm.

  • Interim Report May 2018
    Interim Report May 2018 www.cpier.org.uk Foreword FROM THE CHAIR OF THE REVIEW, DAME KATE BARKER The Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Independent Economic Review (CPIER) is pleased to present the interim report, which has been led by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Independent Economic Commission (CPIEC). It is co-funded by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority, the Business Board of the Combined Authority, and Cambridge Ahead. This is of course the Commission’s report. The views expressed have been developed as independent – as our funders asked us to do. The Commission is now roughly at the half way stage in the review. We have gathered a great deal of evidence. Much of the evidence we have is data on the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough economy. Most of what we have now is from published sources, and we have commissioned a range of new research too. Some of that is available to us now and informs this report. Much of the research is still underway and will be reflected in the final report. At this stage, we have not set out a wholly definitive analysis of where the economy of the area is heading and what should be done about it. This is more our view of where the economy is today and how it got there, an important starting point for the review. While the area the review has responsibility for is defined by its administrative geography, we are primarily concerned with the economics of the area, and we therefore refrain from artificially simplifying, or forcing together, the economic geography.
