  • Councillor Submissions to the Cotswold Council Electoral Review
    Councillor submissions to the Cotswold Council electoral review This PDF document contains 4 submissions from Councillors. Some versions of Adobe allow the viewer to move quickly between bookmarks. Click on the submission you would like to view. If you are not taken to that page, please scroll through the document. Dear Sir. I write in support of the Compton Abdale Parish Meeting who have written asking for Compton Abdale to be placed in the new Chedworth and Churn Valley ward of Cotswold District Council. For the past 10 years I have been the Cotswold District Councillor for the Chedworth Ward covering Chedworth, Compton Abdale, Dowdeswell, Withington and Yanworth. I am indeed the only person who has been CDC Councillor for the Chedworth Ward as prior to my election Withington and Dowdeswell were in Sandywell Ward while Chedworth, Compton Abdale and Yanworth were in Fossehill Ward. Having attended the vast majority of Parish Council meetings and Parish Meetings at Withington, Yanworth, Dowdeswell Chedworth and Compton Abdale during that time, I must say that the issues facing Compton Abdale generally mirror those facing Chedworth and Yanworth rather than those facing Withington and Dowdeswell. Compton Abdale has close links with Yanworth to the East. Much of Compton Abdale parish and almost all of Yanworth parish as well as much of the northern part of Chedworth parish is in the ownership of the Stowell Park estate. Stowell Park was historically the seat of Lord Chedworth and the social and cultural links have continued to this day. The three Parishes were included in the same section of the 1804 Inclosure award map for this reason and have continued to be within the same CDC Ward since the formation of the Cotswold District Council in 1973/4.
