Settrington Village Welcome & Information Pack – 2019 This is the latest update of the original Information Folder which the Parish Council endorsed in April 2012 under the Neighbourhood Watch ‘banner’. It has since been adopted by the Parish Council. It is hoped that both new and existing residents will find the contents to be a useful reference. If you feel that in producing this Pack we have overlooked the inclusion of something which would be of useful general interest, we would welcome your feedback. Every organisation in the parish has, we hope, been invited to include its information sheet. If your Club or organisation has been inadvertently missed and you would like information included in future updates of the Welcome & Information Pack, or if your entry needs updating, please contact the Parish Clerk, Bruce Skinner, on: Tel.No. 01944 768276 or E-mail: [email protected] CONTENTS Item Subject 1 Parish Council 2 Neighbourhood Watch 3 Litter Pickers 4 Neighbourhood Safety 5 Village Hall 6 Village Design Statement - extracts 7 Village Interest Group 8 School 9 Church 10 Sports & Pastimes 11 Bowls Club 12 Tennis Club 13 Cricket 14 Scouts & Cubs 15 Bus Timetable 16 Village Houses Directory 1 - Settrington Parish Council The Parish Council is a statutory body which oversees local affairs. It consists of 9 members who are elected every four years. It is responsible for such matters as village street lighting, grass-cutting and Settrington Beck, and for liaison with other statutory bodies such as Ryedale District Council, NYCC Highways, etc. Ryedale District Council consults the Parish Council with regard to planning, etc. matters, however the latter can only advise; decisions rest with the District Council. Meetings of the Council are held regularly; anyone may attend them. The Agenda and Minutes are posted on the Parish Council Notice Board and on the village website; the annual accounts, which show how the local precept is utilised, are available for scrutiny after having been audited. The Clerk to the Parish Council is Bruce Skinner.

John Harrison is the central coordinator and the Harrison Hire & Sales (HHS) office is the coordination centre, where residents can call or ring (Tel: 01944 768441) if they have something to report, or ask for information on anything concerning the village. Information received from the police about happenings in the area, is posted on the Parish Council Notice Board, situated next to the School. To report anything suspicious to the Police, Telephone 101. NW coordinators have delivered window and post box stickers to residents. Any new resident requiring stickers should contact their coordinator or the HHS office. Coordinators will deliver Parish Council Welcome & Information Packs to all residents and subsequently to new residents. It is hoped that this will enable people, particularly newcomers to know more about what is happening in the village. If anyone hasn’t received a Welcome/Information Pack and would like one, please call at the HHS office. All local organisations are invited to put an info sheet in the folder. If you would like to include an A4 info sheet in future folders, please contact Anne at HHS. Below is a list of NW coordinators and their patch; 1. John Harrison (Main Coordinator) – Town St. Nos.10 to 16, incl. Elm Tree Farm, Elm Tree Barn, The Old Chapel, the School and Village Hall. 2. Jonty Rounthwaite – Town St. Nos.1 to 9, incl.

Just keep a carrier bag and a grasper or some rubber gloves in the car boot.

Litter graspers are available from Yorkshire Trading, R Yates & Sons, Malton or the HHS Office. Thank you in anticipation of any help you can give.

Where have we come from? 2. Where are we now? 3. Where are we going? To examine the issues presented by items 2 and 3, five community working groups were established to review, record and make recommendations on: a) Landscape, ecology, trees, etc. b) Roads, footpaths, verges, ditches, boundary walls, fences. etc. c) Road signs & names, addresses, overhead cables, streetlights, etc. d) Recreation, sports and play areas e) Building appraisal and guidelines, future developments, etc. The contents of the current document, which was formally adopted by Ryedale District Council in September 2013 and is published on the village website, are largely the fruits of the working of those groups.
