One of the purposes of this Act was to divide up the Chase into smaller areas, including the Common. It is a complicated and almost unreadable document, made worse by the fact that only 9 of the 133 sections relate to the Common. The Act also included provisions about other land in the parishes of Enfield, Edmonton and South Mymms (as it was then spelt). Those provisions are not relevant to this consultation. “Le Roy le Veult” - “The King Wills it” King George 3rd’s Assent to the Enfield Chase Bill 1 "the Management Committee" - the committee elected in accordance with “the Rules” to be responsible for the management of “the Common” on behalf of “the Churchwardens” and to supervise the work of “the Curators”; “the Rules” are the Rules and Orders made from time to time under section 60 of the Enfield Chase Act of 1777, 17 Geo III c.17 (“the 1777 Act”) for the governance of the Common (the current Rules were made in 1981); and “the Curators” are the individuals responsible (under Rules 10 & 31) for its day to day management. 2 "the Common" - the land called MONKEN HADLEY COMMON, the title of which is registered at HM Land Registry under numbers AGL278910 & AGL359524, and broadly comprises: 1) land which is commonly known as HADLEY COMMON; plus 2) land which is commonly known as HADLEY WOODS; plus 3) certain small areas of land which are leased, and are not accessible to the public. 3 "the Churchwardens" - the “Churchwardens of the Parish Church of Monken Hadley in the County of Middlesex” which as a statutory corporation (not as individuals) is the present owner of the freehold of the Common, which it holds in trust, along with other assets, under the terms of sections 5 and 115 of the 1777 Act. Copies of the 1777 Act, the 1981 Rules and Orders and the Title Plans can be downloaded from the Consultation web page at http://www.monkenhadleycommon.net/consultation.html. 1 1.4 The Common changed a long time ago from being land used for the benefit of surrounding landowners for grazing and other rural activities. The illustrations herein are postcards from the first half of the 20th century. It is now a largely wooded area providing a vital habitat for flora and fauna on the edge of north London which is used for recreational purposes by the general public. It has public highways across it, and the East Coast mainline railway physically divides it as can be seen on the plan on the front of this document. 1.5 Unbeknown to those involved with the Common, the 1777 Act was repealed in 1978 on the recommendation of the Law Commission, who believed that it was redundant. After this was discovered in about 1990, the repeal was reversed by section 2 of the Statute Law (Repeals) Act 1993. At that time, the Churchwardens and Management Committee considered the option of asking for a new Act of Parliament but it was not pursued as it was too complicated and costly and there would have been problems with validating intervening acts done by the Churchwardens during the period of the repeal. A petition for a new Act had also been considered in 1978 when the Churchwardens decided that they could no longer nor did they want to undertake the management of the Common but this was rejected at that time on the grounds of cost. 1.6 The fundamental issues which the Churchwardens want to address are, firstly, that the provisions of the 1777 Act and the Rules and Orders made under it are no longer appropriate for the proper management and use of the Common and, secondly, their wish to divest themselves of ownership of the Common. 1.7 The main provisions of the 1777 Act which relate to the Common are: Section 4 - the allotment of land to the Parish of Monken Hadley; Section 5 - the apportionment of 50 acres of the Monken Hadley Allotment to the incumbent of Monken Hadley Parish Church and 190 acres to the Churchwardens in trust for the persons specified; Section 6 - proviso for trees within 60 yards of the boundary of the Common; Section 11 - Pinfolds within the Chase to remain vested in His Majesty; [applies to all parts of the former Enfield Chase] Section 13 - allotments to be accepted as compensation in lieu of other rights; [applies to all parts of the former Enfield Chase] Section 60 - power to a make Rules and Orders; [applies to all parts of the former Enfield Chase] Section 70 - Bringing or defending legal proceedings in the name of the Churchwardens; [applies to all parts of the former Enfield Chase] Section 71 - provisions relating to gates etc.; [applies to all parts of the former Enfield Chase] Section 115 - incorporation of the Churchwardens [applies to all parts of the former Enfield Chase]. 2 1.8 The Churchwardens and the Management Committee have agreed that there should be a consultation to obtain the views of interested persons prior to depositing a Private Bill in Parliament to provide for the transfer of the ownership of the Common to a new charity, to provide for the partial repeal and amendment of the provisions of the 1777 Act that relate to the Common, and for related matters. 2 Location of the Common 2.1 The Common is a roughly wedge shaped tract of land about 2.5 km long running east south east from the village of Monken Hadley (Grid Ref: TQ250973) in the London Borough of Barnet; it tapers from about 0.5 km wide at the broadest point at the western end near to Monken Hadley Church to only about 50 metres at the eastern end at Games Road, Cockfosters (Grid

  • Chipping Barnet Team Parish Profile
    Chipping Barnet Team Parish Profile November 2013 Team Overview Location Chipping Barnet is a multi-layered collection of communities that does not reveal its true self at first, or second, glance. In civic and political terms, Barnet (of which Chipping Barnet is a part) is a borough on the northern edge of Greater London. Economically the population covers the socio-economic spectrum, from affluent Hadley and Arkley, to the deprived Whitings Hill and Dollis Valley Estate. The Parish of Chipping Barnet is situated at the extreme southern tip of St Albans Diocese, to the point where London diocese parishes exist between us and our cathedral. Culturally and socially, the church urban fund (www.cuf.org.uk) places us 289 out of the 339 parishes in the diocese, which puts us among the most deprived of parishes. We are ranked around 8000 out of the 13000 parishes in the UK - a “relatively deprived” parish in national terms. The Church Urban Fund identify lone parenthood and child poverty as the two key concerns, and, as mentioned within the individual church sections, we actively support the Chipping Barnet foodbank and the Winter Night Shelter scheme (which offers food and a place to sleep for homeless people throughout the winter months). The Team Rector has a significant civic role as well as the more usual pastoral activities. As well as sitting on the governing body of the two Queen Elizabeth Schools, there are ex-officio posts on the trustees of four locally endowed charities. For example, the Hyde Foundation owns the historic library building in the centre of the Barnet conservation area and has the disbursement of the rental on the property to support the education of young people who live within the boundary of the old parish of St John the Baptist and that of our neighbours in Monken Hadley.

  • The Early History of Man's Activities in the Quernmore Area
    I Contrebis 2000 The Early History of Man's Activities in the Quernmore Area. Phil Hudson Introduction This paper hopes to provide a chronological outline of the events which were important in creating the landscape changes in the Quernmore forest area. There was movement into the area by prehistoric man and some further incursions in the Anglo- Saxon and the Norse periods leading to Saxon estates and settled agricultural villages by the time of the Norman Conquest. These villages and estates were taken over by the Normans, and were held of the King, as recorded in Domesday. The Post-Nonnan conquest new lessees made some dramatic changes and later emparked, assarted and enclosed several areas of the forest. This resulted in small estates, farms and vaccaries being founded over the next four hundred years until these enclosed areas were sold off by the Crown putting them into private hands. Finally there was total enclosure of the remaining commons by the 1817 Award. The area around Lancaster and Quernmore appears to have been occupied by man for several thousand years, and there is evidence in the forest landscape of prehistoric and Romano-British occupation sites. These can be seen as relict features and have been mapped as part of my on-going study of the area. (see Maps 1 & 2). Some of this field evidence can be supported by archaeological excavation work, recorded sites and artif.act finds. For prehistoric occupation in the district random finds include: mesolithic flints,l polished stone itxe heads at Heysham;'worked flints at Galgate (SD 4827 5526), Catshaw and Haythomthwaite; stone axe and hammer heads found in Quernmore during the construction of the Thirlmere pipeline c1890;3 a Neolithic bowl, Mortlake type, found in Lancaster,o a Bronze Age boat burial,s at SD 5423 5735: similar date fragments of cinerary urn on Lancaster Moor,6 and several others discovered in Lancaster during building works c1840-1900.7 Several Romano-British sites have been mapped along with finds of rotary quems from the same period and associated artifacts.

  • The Story of a Man Called Daltone
    - The Story of a Man called Daltone - “A semi-fictional tale about my Dalton family, with history and some true facts told; or what may have been” This story starts out as a fictional piece that tries to tell about the beginnings of my Dalton family. We can never know how far back in time this Dalton line started, but I have started this when the Celtic tribes inhabited Britain many yeas ago. Later on in the narrative, you will read factual information I and other Dalton researchers have found and published with much embellishment. There also is a lot of old English history that I have copied that are in the public domain. From this fictional tale we continue down to a man by the name of le Sieur de Dalton, who is my first documented ancestor, then there is a short history about each successive descendant of my Dalton direct line, with others, down to myself, Garth Rodney Dalton; (my birth name) Most of this later material was copied from my research of my Dalton roots. If you like to read about early British history; Celtic, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Normans, Knight's, Kings, English, American and family history, then this is the book for you! Some of you will say i am full of it but remember this, “What may have been!” Give it up you knaves! Researched, complied, formated, indexed, wrote, edited, copied, copy-written, misspelled and filed by Rodney G. Dalton in the comfort of his easy chair at 1111 N – 2000 W Farr West, Utah in the United States of America in the Twenty First-Century A.D.

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions.

  • Appendix 1 Draft Greenspace Capital Investment Strategy , Item 14
    Environment Committee: 08 November 2016 Implementation of the Parks and Open Spaces Strategy Appendix 1: Draft Greenspaces Capital Investment Programme The proposed Greenspaces Capital Investment Programme amounts to £105m over a 5-10 year period (transformational schemes will have longer timescales due to funding, e.g. Brent Cross and Heritage Parks projects), detailed throughout this document. This is proposed to be delivered through a split of 56% developer funding, 22% grant funding and 22% LBB Capital Funding (mainly borrowing), and meaning that 78% of the total cost of the programme is to be funded through external sources of funding. The table shows the proposed approach to investment in open spaces to maximise the strategic benefit and funding opportunity from Council investment through both the development reserve and other capital funding (mostly borrowing, but some specific capital receipts). In most cases borrowing proposals have been linked to assets such as pavilions or roads/footpaths, but in a few places the shift towards ‘Natural Capital Accounting’ adopted through the Open Spaces Strategy may need to be utilised to support proposed borrowing.
