The proposed development shown in a booklet including outline sketches, had been prepared by Angus Meek Architects on behalf of a Housing Developer who was in the process of buying the site. The Savills’ representatives stated their presentation was considered as the initial engagement with the Parish Council and the residents of Hambridge and Westport. The summary of the initial outline proposal was as follows; The site has an area of just over 6 acres, which includes a considerably wooded area along the old Mill stream, this area is planned to be retained without affecting the existing trees. The plan is to target 28 dwellings on the site. The existing dwellings will be retained, including 3-5 conversions in the Grade II Mill House. The target is 23 individual new dwellings, including 35% affordable housing, which would be 8 to 10 affordable houses with 1 and 2 bedrooms. -
Hambridge & Westport Newsletter
HAMBRIDGE & WESTPORT NEWSLETTER December 2020 Coronavirus (COVID-19) It has been almost 12 months since the first confirmed cases of this virus occurring in the UK were reported and I am sure that we are all thoroughly fed up hearing about it. The news of the successful efforts to create vaccines have given hope that we will soon be able to return to some sense of normality, whatever the ‘new’ normal turns out to be. Until this time it is important that we follow the government and NHS advice and all do our bit to minimise the spread of the virus and to keep each other safe. The possible relaxation of some of the measures over the Christmas period will bring with it higher risks of transmission and we must all ensure that we continue to be vigilant, particularly when we may be in contact with the elderly or vulnerable. Whilst we know that many people who contract this virus may only feel mild effects, there will be people in our community who more adversely affected. Aside from the physical threat of the virus, the lockdown measures have contributed to the feeling of isolation and sense of loneliness that some may already be feeling at this time of year. If you know of vulnerable neighbours, perhaps you could drop them a note asking if they are okay. Do they need anything from the shops? Do you have their next of kin’s number in case of emergency? Contact cards are available at the shop for individuals who wish to offer more local help to their neighbours. -

Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2
Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2 WWW.SOMERSET.GOV.UK WELCOME TO THE 2ND SOMERSET RIGHTS OF WAY IMPROVEMENT PLAN Public Rights of Way are more than a valuable recreational resource - they are also an important asset in terms of the rural economy, tourism, sustainable transport, social inclusion and health and well being. The public rights of way network is key to enabling residents and visitors alike to access services and enjoy the beauty of Somerset’s diverse natural and built environment. Over the next few years, the focus is going to be chiefly on performing our statutory duties. However, where resources allow we will strive to implement the key priority areas of this 2nd Improvement Plan and make Somerset a place and a destination for enjoyable walking, riding and cycling.

SITE DESCRIPTION AND PROPOSAL SITE The application site comprises part of a field immediately to the north east of St James Church, Hambridge, on the south east wide of the B3168. The land is currently in use for equestrian purposes and there is a small horse shelter present on the site. The site is approximately 135m beyond the developed edge of Hambridge, big closely related to the church, a former school house and a dwelling called Glebe Cottage, which form a compact 'gothic' group of buildings. The church and the school house are grade II listed, while Glebe Cottage is not. All three properties however date from the mid 19th Century and stand in isolation. There are other sporadic groups of development along the B3168, mainly comprising farms or individual isolated dwellings.

Dedicattons of Tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©Ometsetsftire. “L
DeDicattons of tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©ometsetsftire. BY THE KEY. E. H. BATES, M.A HE late Mr. W illiam Long contributed to the seventeenth “L volume of the Proceedings in 1871 a classified list of the Church Dedications given by Ecton in his Thesaurus Rerum Ecclesiasticarum, 1742. As Editor of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Kalendar my attention has been frequently drawn, from my own knowledge as well as by numerous correspon- dents, to the many errors and gaps in that list. It became plainly necessary to go behind the Thesaurus to the original sources of information. And here I may be allowed to repro- duce what I have already stated in the preface to the Kalendar for 1905. It should be clearly understood that there is no authoritative list in existence. Among the Public Becords are two works known as Pope Nicholas’ Taxatio of 1291, and the Valor Ec- clesiasticus of 27 Henry VIII (1536), containing the names of all parishes in England and Wales. These were primarily drawn up to ascertain the value of the benefices, and only in- cidentally, as in the case of towms with many churches, are the dedications added. The latter work, to which the title of V^ahr Ecclesiasticus or Liber Regis is generally given, was first printed in 1711 by J ohn Ecton. His preface contains a very interesting account of the early work of the Queen Anne’s Bounty Fund, of which he was Receiver, and of the serious state of affairs in the large towns which led to its foundation. -

MINUTES OF THE MEETING HELD ON THE 14TH OCTOBER 2019 The Minutes of the meeting, having been circulated to the members were approved and signed on the proposal of Cllr Paul Masters. 644). MATTERS ARISING a). Footpaths generally – update i). Footpath L192 Cllr Simon Denley said that it basically involved putting in an application with the proposed route and obtaining consent from the landowners involved. He felt it could take a while and Cllr Richard Maidment offered to take it on. b). Caravan parked at Westport – update Cllr Simon Denley said that he had no other update other than the police leaving a message saying that they would attend but, they could not find anything untoward. As far as he knew, nothing was being enforced but, Mike Evans might have a bit more information. Cllr Simon Denley said that he seems to have disappeared again. Dist. Cllr. Mike Stanton said that he had received an update from Tim Wills advising that it was a legal thing and the Legal Department has to actually prepare an Enforcement Notice. There is some useful information which states that the absence of a postal address is technically of no real concern as the ‘legislation address’ to serve notices on the land and also at the last known address. -
