  • North Hertfordshire District Council Election Results 1973-2012
    North Hertfordshire District Council Election Results 1973-2012 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.

  • HITCHIN REGISTER of BUILDINGS of LOCAL INTEREST 26 JULY 2011 North Hertfordshire District Council - Hitchin Register of Buildings of Local Interest 2011
    North Hertfordshire District Council www.north-herts.gov.uk HITCHIN REGISTER OF BUILDINGS OF LOCAL INTEREST 26 JULY 2011 North Hertfordshire District Council - Hitchin Register of Buildings of Local Interest 2011 CRITERIA FOR INCLUSION ON THE REGISTER OF BUILDINGS OF LOCAL INTEREST Listed Buildings are important nationally because of their special architectural or historic interest. The criteria used are defined in national terms. However, some buildings are of local interest because of their local historical connections, local vernacular construction or detailing or their contribution to the local cherished scene. Some buildings do not merit statutory listing, but are important individually in a local context. Therefore this register lists buildings of local interest. Government guidance leaves it open to planning authorities to produce their own lists of buildings of local interest and to formulate local plan policies for their protection through normal development control procedures. Therefore, when planning permission is required, the district council in making a decision on the application will take into consideration the local interest of the buildings included on the register. The buildings are selected according to the following criteria: Good quality work of a well known local architect or craftsman. Buildings of particular local architectural interest, which are important locally for their special architectural design, decoration, craftsmanship or construction including technical innovation and particular important local building types. Buildings of particular local historic interest which clearly illustrate important aspects of local social, industrial, cultural or military history or the historic development of the town. Buildings which act as an important architectural feature or landmark within an historic street scene or setting.

  • The Contribution by Women to the Social and Economic Development of the Victorian Town in Hertfordshire
    1 The Contribution by Women to the Social and Economic Development of the Victorian Town in Hertfordshire Jennifer Ayto Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD September 2012 2 Abstract This study focuses on the role and contribution of women in the context of the social and economic development of two towns in Hertfordshire during the nineteenth century. Although the age saw an increase in urbanisation, Hertfordshire remained an agricultural county with long established land owners, a middle class with influence in the towns and its closeness to London attracting the newly wealthy in search of a country estate. The towns selected for this study, Hertford and Hitchin, changed little in their character and, compared with others which experienced industrial expansion, saw a modest population growth. This, however, brought the consequential pressures on housing and poverty. This research is unique in combining the study of the activities of women and the challenges faced by two market towns over a period of time of change and thus making a contribution to the debate on the concept of “separate spheres” by demonstrating that women had a place in the public arena. The daily life of a country town was reliant on a thriving economic environment. As this research demonstrates, many women had trades and businesses, contributed to good causes and were central to the education of children and adults. Their philanthropic efforts supported the building and maintenance of churches, schools, and hospitals. It charts the role of ordinary women, operating in a small town environment, before extension of the suffrage and Equal Opportunities legislation established their position as legitimate influencers of policy and practice.

It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most vulnerable in society: children and older people, and those with heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues, because areas with poor air quality are also often the less affluent areas1,2. The annual health cost to society of the impacts of particulate matter alone in the UK is estimated to be around £16 billion3. Across the majority of the North Hertfordshire air quality is good, being below the Government’s health based limits known as Air Quality Objectives (AQOs). There is also evidence of a continuing improvement in air quality, albeit a very gradual improvement. There are no locations within the district where concentrations of particulate matter, whether PM10, or the smaller PM2.5 fractions exceed the relevant AQOs according to the Government’s national modelling.
