Some versions of Adobe allow the viewer to move quickly between bookmarks. 1st Hinchley Wood Scout Group Registered Charity No - S Please reply to: 30 March 2015 The Review Officer (Elmbridge BC) Boundary Commission Layden House 76-86 Turmill Street London EC1M 5LG Dear Sirs, Boundary Review, Hinchley Wood Ward, Elmbridge Borough Council I am writing to you as a sometime Hinchley Wood resident and long-serving Group Scout Leader of 1st Hinchley Wood Scouts. I have great concerns about the proposed Borough ward boundary changes which I am sure will have a large negative effect on local democracy in the relatively small community of Hinchley Wood, which I lived in from birth and with which I have since had continuous involvement as a member and then leader in the local Scout Group. Since the building of Hinchley Wood in the inter-war years it has been a ward, firstly of Esher UDC and subsequently Elmbridge BC and for many years has been represented by two Hinchley Wood Residents Association councillors. The current councillors both live in the community, are well known locally and are able to focus on Hinchley Wood issues. The plan to split up the current Hinchley Wood ward and divide the representation between Long Ditton and Weston Green would mean that the village community is unequally divided on an arbitrary population-based geographical basis without regard to what is in those areas.

  • Esher and Walton Conservatives
    Elmbridge Electoral Review 2015 Submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England by Esher & Walton Conservative Association 1 Elmbridge Electoral Review This document is the Official Submission of the Esher & Walton Conservative Association (EWCA) in response to the consultation being held by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) on future warding arrangements for Elmbridge Borough Council (EBC). The Conservative Group that forms the administration of Elmbridge Borough Council asked for this review with an aim to reduce the number of Borough Councillors. We are therefore pleased that the LGBCE is minded to recommend a reduction to 48 Councillors. The Esher & Walton Conservative Association notes the Commission’s guidance in relation to Councils that elect by thirds. Elmbridge Borough Council took the decision on 17th November 2014 to retain the by thirds electoral system. Considering the Commission’s guidance and the law, we consider that all new wards should have three members in order to ensure electoral equality for all voters in the borough. In addition to creating inequality, having a few wards that do not vote when the rest of the borough is voting causes confusion with the electorate. Elmbridge is made up of a number of towns and villages each with its own identity and, ideally, these would remain separated amongst electoral wards. However, this is not possible under the by thirds electoral system and it would take more than two or three exceptions to keep all the community boundaries. We believe that different communities can join together in electoral wards – like some do in the Surrey County Council divisions that cover the borough – without affecting or damaging the identities of those communities.

See Principles on main webpage. Woodland, commons, nature reserve In Brief This is one of the most unexpected and unusual walks on this site. It takes you through a succession of beautiful woodland paths with very little to mar the enjoyment. Three things make it unique: - Chessington World of Adventures which you pass close by briefly (but mainly unseen). - The distant traffic. It feels quite surreal knowing you’re not far from the city trunk roads and yet, apart from two bridge crossings of the A3, not seeing any trace of “civilisation”. In fact, the meadows and woodland here are as fine as anything you will find deep in the Sussex Weald. - Prince’s Coverts . This wild nature reserve is a well-kept secret gem: there are people who have lived in this area but don’t know about it. Yet it is large and wide-ranging, and slap bang in the middle of the Surrey stockbroker belt; it will give you enjoyment over the years. Till recently (2014) you needed a key to get out of this secret place.

  • Excursion to Oxshott and Claygate
    135 EXCURSION TO OXSHOTT AND CLAYGATE. MAY 6'J;'H, 1916, REPORT BY C. T. GRIST, M.A" F.R.G.S., Director of the Excursion. OXSHOTT and Claygate lie within an area where erosion of Bagshot Sand and London Clay has been very extensive. The main purpose of the Excursion was to note the relation of the erosion to the river system of the area. The members arrived at Oxshott at 2,15 p.m. The station is situated in a cutting which exposes the passage beds between the Bagshot Series and London Clay. These beds are coloured as London Clay on the map of the Geological Survey, but for some time past it has been deemed advisable to make a distinction, and as they are better developed at Claygate than elsewhere, "Claygate Beds" has recently been suggested as a suitable name." A small section in the station yard afforded an opportunity for observing their structure and constituents-layers of pale clay with seams of fine white sand. On the heath above it was noticed that the junction between the Claygate beds and the Bagshot sand was abrupt. The sand was seen as a steep scarp, heather-covered and furrowed by storm gullies; the beds below as a grassy level. In winter-time the distinction is more noticeable still, for then the rain percolat­ ing through the sands oozes out at the junction, and forms sheets of water on the clays below.
