  • Whitbourne WTW Opened April 1966
    WHITBOURNE WATER TREATMENT WORKS £857,000 water scheme for Bromyard area Whitbourne Water Pumping Station and Treatment Works at the time of its official opening in April 1966 This scheme was first conceived as a result of the government survey of Herefordshire’s water supply needs in the post WW2 era, but it was not approved by the Minister of Housing and Local Government until 1960 when the Herefordshire Water Board was put in place. At the ‘opening’ of the works, which had been designed to supply water to 12,000 people in the Bromyard, Ledbury, Hereford, Leominster & Wigmore rural districts, and meet about one eighth of Herefordshire’s water supply needs, it was described as one of the most modern waterworks in the west Midlands. The pumping and filtration plant had the capacity to supply 805,000 gallons a day from the River Teme (a tributary of the River Severn) through a network of 70 miles of pipeline. It was the single biggest scheme completed by the Herefordshire Water Board. Chairman, Mr SR Southall, said that in the past six years the Board had laid 350 miles of mains - ‘as much as the councils ever laid from the dawn of time until we took over’. He said that the board had made water available to 25,000 people previously without mains supply. To do this, 17 pumping stations and 18 water reservoirs had been built. He added that in addition, ten more pumping stations, six reservoirs and 150 miles of mains were then under construction. ** £100 in 1966 = c£1,585 in 2020.

Hampton Bishop Parish has undertaken to prepare an NDP and this process has been subject to environmental appraisal pursuant to the SEA Directive. Hampton Bishop Parish is a small rural parish adjoining the western edge of the built up area of Hereford. There is no post office or shop within the parish. The Bunch of Carrots is the local pub. The Draft Hampton Bishop NDP includes 2 main objectives and it is intended that these objectives will be delivered by 11 criteria based planning policies; no site allocations are proposed here. The environmental appraisal of the Hampton Bishop NDP has been undertaken in line with the Environmental Assessment of Plan and Programmes Regulations 2004.

  • The Story of a Worcestershire Harris Family – Part 2: the Siblings
    Foreword Through marriage, the male line of descent of our Harris family has Our work on Part Two of our story has brought an added bonus. By links with Clark, Matthews, Price, Jones and Graves families. delving more deeply into the lateral branches of our tree, our findings have thrown new light on the family of our first known ancestor, John Through the siblings of the Harris males and the families of their Harris, who married Mary Clark in Eastham on 30 December 1779. spouses, we are also linked to such diverse family names as Apperley, Baldwin, Birkin, Boulton, Bray, Browning, Butler, Craik, Brian Harris, Cowbridge, February 2012 Davies, Davis, Garbett, Godfrey, Gore, Gould, Griffiths, Hall, Harrod, Hehir, Homer, Hughes, Moon, Passey, Pitt, Postans, Pound, Preece, Prime, Robotham, Sewell, Skyrme, Sprittles, Stinissen, Thomas,Thurston, Tingle, Turner, Twinberrow, Ward, Yarnold and many more. They are part of a network of Harris connections which takes us beyond the boundaries of Worcestershire, Herefordshire and the rest of the British Isles to Belgium, Australia, Canada and the USA. It may come as a surprise that two of the siblings of Edward James Harris who emigrated to Canada before WWI had already married and started a family in England before leaving these shores. They were George and Edith. Even more surprisingly, Agnes and Hubert, who arrived in Canada as singletons, chose partners who were – like themselves – recently arrived ex-pats and married siblings from the same family of Scottish emigrants, the Craiks.

Heritage at Risk teams are now in each of our nine local offices, delivering national expertise locally. The good news is that we are on target to save 25% (1,137) of the sites that were on the Register in 2010 by 2015. From St Barnabus Church in Birmingham to the Guillotine Lock on the Stratford Canal, this success is down to good partnerships with owners, developers, the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), Natural England, councils and local groups.

In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter.

  • Case Studies from Across Rural England of How Rural Communities Have Worked Together During Lockdown Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together
    Case Studies from across Rural England of how rural communities have worked together during lockdown Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together RURAL COMMUNITIES PULLING TOGETHER This booklet details the Case Studies that were provided to the Rural Services Network during the lockdown period of Covid-19 (2020). Organisations were encouraged to respond to three questions: • What initiatives has your local rural community set up in response to COVID-19 national lockdown? • What national initiative would help your organisation do things better in your rural area? • Any other comments? Not all respondents answered all the questions, detailed in this booklet are the answers provided by organisations. Some answers have been edited or amended for reasons of Data Protection and to comply with our constitution. Councillor Cecilia Motley, the Chair of the Rural Services Network said: ‘It is heartwarming to see how our rural communities have come together to support their most vulnerable residents in this difficult time. However, our communities raise a number of important issues which need attention and support from Government. Our rural communities should not be left behind.’ 2 Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together Contents: East Midlands Page 4 East of England Page 15 North East Page 31 North West Page 34 South East Page 38 South West Page 53 West Midlands Page 71 Yorkshire & Humber Page 80 3 Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together EAST MIDLANDS REGION Parish / Local Group: East Drayton Parish Council Region: East Midlands What initiatives has your local rural community set up in response to COVID-19 national lockdown?
