12 November for December Issue. Broadwindsornews@Gmail.Com WELCOME! It’s great to have The White Lion roaring back into life again, in the hands of our new landlords, Vikki and Spike. We wish them all the very best of luck – and it’s down to us, as a community, to support them. We might not all be drinkers but having a thriving pub in the centre of the village is good for all of us. If you haven’t already done so, please pop in and say hello. I’m pleased to say that the challenge I threw down in the last issue about getting the village pump going again is beginning to bear fruit. Watch this space, as they say. And the Brownies are planning to put a tub of plants next to the pump, so that’ll brighten things up a bit. Again, there’s lots going on in the village and the surrounding area this month. Don’t forget the Fireworks at Bernards’ Place on 4 November. It’s free admission to this event, but the Jubilee Group does appreciate your donations, as fireworks aren’t cheap. Food will be served from 6pm but please don’t leave it too late to get your hot dog or burger, as one visitor did last year and then complained that it was ‘disgusting’ that the food had run out before they got there at 7pm. The fireworks will last for approximately half an hour, so please keep your pets indoors. I always leave Radio Four on for mine. Thanks again to Julie Steele for the cover photo – Julie, the magazine would look very bare without you! Margery Hookings Date for final copy: 12 November for December issue.

BROADWINDSOR CHURCH NEWS Due to the closure of the British Legion section and retirement of our standard bearer, Sam Trott, our Remembrance Sunday Service in Broadwindsor will take place this year at 11am on Sunday 12 November. The service will begin with an act of remembrance and two minutes’ silence, followed by a communion service with hymns for the occasion. We would love to see you in church. Christmas is coming and that means a community singing opportunity. Do come and join our scratch community choir in preparation for the carol service at 4pm on Sunday 17 December at 4pm in Broadwindsor Church. No music reading ability necessary - just some enthusiasm. We have three rehearsals on Tuesday evenings, 6-7pm, in Fullers community hall. We will meet on Tuesday 21 November, 5 Dec and 12 December. More details from Jo Neary or just turn up and join in. With every blessing, Jo BROADWINDSOR CE VC PRIMARY SCHOOL www.broadwindsor.dorset.sch.uk Well, here we are again, at the start of a new school year. We have welcomed 13 new children into our reception class and, in addition, as some children and families moved away from the area, we welcomed some new families and children into older year groups. We now have 96 pupils on roll. There is never a quiet start to the school year and autumn term shows no signs of being any different this year. As many people will know, we offer a broad and varied curriculum and, in September, the KS2 children enjoyed Romeo & Juliet, performed by the Young Shakespeare Company. We have been welcoming this company for many years and it is a highlight for the children and staff alike. Their method of performing Shakespeare’s plays means the children are engaged right from the start and are included in the performance along the way. Our Year 3 and 4 children will be visiting Montacute House in October to help them with their Tudor studies; some Year 5 & 6 children will have taken part in the West Dorset Primary Leadership Academy programme in Weymouth; our Open Day will take place on Monday 20 November from 9am – 11.30am. Everyone is welcome to come and have a look around our school on a normal working day. We will be launching our new mission and ethos statement later this term. This has been a project led by Reverend Jo and has included input from the pupils, staff, governors and parents. It has been an interesting journey and will culminate in a revitalised statement demonstrating our Christian values. Nigel Arnold, Headteacher BROADWINDSOR COMRADES HALL The Comrades Arms closed its doors on Sunday 1 October, following a well-supported pool competition. I would like to thank everyone who came to the community bar. We raised a total of £1,983.35 for the hall. I’m delighted to see that Spike and Vikki have opened the doors of the White Lion and that our community is supporting them. Don’t forget our Race Night, on Saturday 11 November. Doors open at 7pm. Our auctioneer is Jim Rowe, from Symonds & Sampson and our race sponsors are Symonds & Sampson, Kitson & Trotman, Black Cow Vodka, Broadwindsor Craft Centre, Lawrences Auctioneers, Broadwindsor Community Stores, Linda Paget Catering and PH Hardwill Ltd. We hope that groups of friends will make up tables of eight to 10 people. Tickets are £5 per head to include a drink and 'light bites'. It’s going to be lots of fun – there will be a bar and attendees will be able to buy horses in each race, with the winning owner of each race receiving half the money raised for the horses in that race. You can get tickets from the shop, Lesley Tibballs (Drimpton) 867241, Joyce Chumbley (Hursey) 868286, and Brenda Smith (Broadwindsor) 868392. Andrew Hookings, Chairman BROADWINDSOR GROUP PARISH COUNCIL The parish council convened its meeting on 9 October at Drimpton Village Hall. Once again, there was a very full agenda and it was indeed a rather long evening. Thanks to all those members of the public who joined us and especially those who stayed until the end! Mr Kevin Madder-Smith was co-opted to the council as the new ember for the Broadwindsor ward. We wish him the very best in his new position and look forward to working with him. The outline planning application WD/D/17/000800, Land South of Fullers, Bridport Road, was once again on the agenda due to revised information being submitted by the applicant and a number of local residents spoke to record their steadfast objection to the proposal. The parish council has a duty to represent the views of its parishioners and for this reason, the council once more submitted its objection to West Dorset District Council. The loss of the local bus service was again, and quite rightly, the topic of discussion for part of the meeting. The parish council has just completed a needs analysis in relation to where people who use public transport, need to get to and when. Thank you to all those who completed and returned the questionnaire and to those members of the community who volunteered their help to manage the process. The parish council is continuing to explore community transport options. An overview of results will be available on the parish council’s website shortly. Councillor Knox provided an overview of the work being carried out by Dorset County Council to provide solutions to the many problems caused by the withdrawal of the service and I very much hope that at the time of reading this article, there has been some good news! Three Neighbourhood Plan Roadshows will be taking place in November which will provide an update on the Plan - progress made to date and future actions. Neighbourhood planning gives communities direct power to develop a shared vision for their neighbourhood and shape the development and growth of their local area. The roadshows take place on Saturday 4 November at Blackdown Village Hall, Saturday 11 November at Drimpton Village Hall and on Sunday 19 November at Comrades Hall. These are drop in events and run from 10am until 4pm. Please do come along if you can. At the September meeting, Councillor Rowe was appointed as Footpaths Officer and has already started the process of engaging with the relevant statutory bodies, local walkers and landowners. Please do contact her if you have any questions or concerns. Grit bins will start to be filled by Dorset Highways in October. If you notice that one has not been topped up or if there are any cracks or damage to the bin itself, please do let me know. The next Meeting of the Council will take place at 7.30 pm on 13 November at Comrades Hall. Please do join us, members of the public and press are very welcome to attend. The agenda will be posted on village noticeboards and online. As always, please do get in touch if I can be of any help. Helen Cudmore, Clerk to the Council 01308 488440 [email protected] BROADWINDSOR GROUP PARISH COMMUNITY LAND TRUST In June the planning officer at WDDC supported an outline design option for the proposed development of up to 15 affordable houses for rent at the proposed 1.5 acre site at Netherhay Lane, Drimpton. All aspects of the development, such as an on-site sewage treatment plant, will be contained within the constraints of the site, and will present a good street scene on to Netherhay Lane. Negotiations are ongoing between the Broadwindsor Group Parish CLT, our development partner (Yarlington Housing Group), the landowners and their agents concerning an options agreement and land transfer.

  • West Dorset District Council)
    NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN EXAMINATION SERVICE EXAMINATION OF THE BROADWINDSOR GROUP PARISHES NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN (WEST DORSET DISTRICT COUNCIL) QUESTIONS FROM THE EXAMINER TO WEST DORSET DISTRICT COUNCIL AND BROADWINDSOR GROUP PARISH COUNCIL EQ1 WDDC question the need for the reference to 0.1ha in Policy BGNP4A. In West Dorset, are Biodiversity Mitigation and Enhancement Plans routinely required on sites over 0.1ha, even if there is no good reason to suppose that there will be an adverse impact on biodiversity? What is the justification for this requirement? RESP Dorset Council response ONS Within the Adopted West Dorset, Weymouth & Portland Local Plan 2015, paragraph 2.2.19 of the E supporting text to Policy ENV2 Wildlife and Habitats states that: “In order to comply with all relevant government legislation on biodiversity and Natural England advice, an appraisal scheme has been set up in Dorset by the DCC natural environment team; if required, a Biodiversity Appraisal accompanied by a Biodiversity Mitigation Plan (BMP) should be submitted alongside the planning application. This standardised process is the councils’ preferential scheme but developers can, if they so wish, demonstrate in other ways how they have met the statutory and policy requirements.” West Dorset, Weymouth & Portland, Planning Application Requirements (February 2016) clarifies further: “A Biodiversity Appraisal accompanied by a standardised Biodiversity Mitigation Plan (BMP) is required for all greenfield or brownfield development sites over 0.1ha in size, where not currently used as existing residential or business premises. A BMP covers habitat as well as protected species matters.” Whilst we support policy BGNP4A in principle we would question the need for a Biodiversity Mitigation and Enhancement Plan for sites larger than 0.1 ha to be mentioned within the policy as it already forms part of the Councils validation checklist and on this basis would replicate a well known process.

  • Letter of Support to Cricket Club 8.10.20
    Drimpton Road Broadwindsor Church of England Broadwindsor Beaminster Voluntary Controlled Primary School Dorset DT8 3QL “Learning and growing together” Tel/Fax: 01308 868376 Email: [email protected] 8.10.20 Headteacher: Mr Philip Smith School website: www.broadwindsor.dorset.sch.uk Dear Andrew, The school very much appreciates the support Broadwindsor Cricket Club has given us over a long period of time to benefit the children’s sporting opportunities. I was very much saddened to hear that our local Cricket Club may be losing its ground and wanted to write to you with the school’s support. In recent times both during the headship of Mr Arnold and myself more recently, the children have enjoyed using the facilities at the cricket ground to develop their cricket skills. The school in partnership with yourselves has offered cricket coaching with local grass route players which inspired many children to continue their journey in sport and indeed cricket. I know first-hand how excited pupils were to visit the ground and actually train there! The school received Sports Games Gold award in the academic year 18/19 and was on track to receive this award again in 19/20 before the outbreak of Coronavirus. An instrumental part of this success was having links with local clubs like yourselves. Most of our club links due to the nature of the rural area are further away in places such as Crewkerne and Bridport. The Cricket Club in Broadwindsor is the only local club situated in the village itself which ensures local children can develop cricket skills beyond those taught in school without the need to travel beyond their community.
