  • Ribbesford Meadows Teams
    Date: 05.02.2019 Ground: 81 Match: 23 (2018/2019 season) Venue: Ribbesford Meadows Teams: Bewdley Town V Smethwick Rangers Competition: West Midlands Regional League Premier Division Admission: £3 Final Score: 5-0 (H/T 3-0) Referee: Not Known Attendance: 22 (Head Count) Mileage to venue and return: 41.2 Miles Programme: £1 Introduction This game was the third time in a row that I had attempted to take in a midweek game of football. Two weeks ago, I arrived at the Aspray Arena to watch Dudley Town V Black Country Rangers, but the snow came down with force and the game was postponed with around half hour to go too kick off. Last Tuesday I had planned to visit Wellbeing Park for the ‘El Stonio’ between Stone Dominoes V Stone Old Alleynians, but that was postponed earlier in the day due to more bad weather. So, it goes without saying that I was very pleased to see an improvement in the weather and for this game at Ribbesford Meadows to go ahead. As this was a midweek match, I went straight to the venue directly from my place of work in Atcham, Shropshire. My route from work took me the usual way home too Much Wenlock but instead of turning right in Much Wenlock and towards my, HQ in South Shropshire I travelled towards the Shropshire Village of Morville. From Morville I travelled through more Shropshire Villages – Glazeley, Billingsley and Button Oak to name but a few before arriving in Bewdley. As is my usual practise, I found the location of the ground which is located in the Village of Ribbesford, 1.3 miles from Bewdley.

  • 1. INTRODUCTION the Ribbesford
    1. INTRODUCTION The Ribbesford Conservation Area (the Area) was designated by Wyre Forest District Council in 1991. It is situated about 1 mile (1.4 km) to the south of Bewdley, in the county of Worcestershire. It comprises a small rural hamlet with buildings dating pri- marily from the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries, set in the valley of the River Severn against a steep wooded hill-side. This document aims to set out the special architectural and historic characteristics of the Conservation Area. The character appraisal will be of interest and use to those involved with development and use of the area, and that adjoining it, to preserve and enhance the Area’s character. The Adopted Wyre Forest District Local Plan (January 2004) contains policies, out- lined in Appendix 1 of this document, to assist in preserving and enhancing Conserva- tion Areas within the District: these will be used when considering any development or other proposals within the defi ned boundaries of this Conservation Area. Appen- dix 2 of this document shows the boundary of the Conservation Area, in map form, together with a number of the features referred to in this document. 2. LEGISLATIVE AND POLICY FRAMEWORK The fi rst Conservation Areas were designated under the Civic Amenities Act (1967). This Act was superseded by the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. Section 69 of this later Act imposes a duty on Local Planning Authorities to identify areas that are of special architectural or historic interest, where it is desir- able to preserve and enhance the character and appearance, and to designate them as Conservation Areas.
