MP Mills (PDF) Page 1 of 2 Lawrence, Arion From: Gregory, Eleanor Sent: 08 June 2012 10:36 To: Lawrence, Arion Subject: FW: Derbyshire County Council boundary review From: MILLS, Nigel [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 07 June 2012 17:37 To: Reviews@ Subject: Derbyshire County Council boundary review Dear Sir I am writing in connection with your proposals for the division boundaries for Derbyshire County Council and the impact on divisions within my constituency of Amber Valley. In relation to the number of divisions I would suggest there is scope for a reduction from the current 64, especially given the abolition of the Police Authority later this year which or course has significant representation from County Council members. The pressure on public finances has led to a reduction in the number of MPs from the next election and I consider that it would have been preferable for the County Council to have followed the same approach. I would also suggest that the majority of the workload on the County Council falls on the minority of members serving on the Cabinet rather than on the other councillors. My main concern with your proposals is the proposed 2 member division of Alfreton and Somercotes. Given that on your proposals 60 of the 64 members would represent single member divisions and only 4 from 2 member divisions, I consider that this creates a real inequality of status for those Councillors which will likely confuse the electorate and the Council in terms of its procedures. This 2 member division would cover a very sizeable number of electors and would be very difficult for the elected members to represent effectively without significant support. I would fear also that that the smaller communities that would make up that division eg Ironville would get “lost in the numbers” and not receive the representation they deserve. I therefore consider that 2 member divisions are inappropriate due to their scale and especially where the vast majority of the Council would still be made up of single member divisions. I would therefore request that the proposal for a 2 member division be scrapped and you either adopt the proposal for a Swanwick, Riddings and Ironville division and an Alfreton and Somercotes division, or stick with the existing split of Alfreton/Swanwick and Somercotes/Ironville/Riddings. I appreciate there are issues with the size on this second proposal which could be addressed by moving AWP polling district from Alfreton division into Somercotes division. I appreciate that there are arguments for and against both proposed splits but overall I think there option of Swanwick/Riddings/Ironville and Alfreton/Somercotes represents the better option as there greater links both geographically and in terms of school catchments between Swanwick and Riddings than Swanwick and Alfreton, and there are reasonable links between Somercotes and Alfreton. The existing Borough Council ward boundary between Somercotes and Riddings is far from sensible (eg part of Parkside being in Ironville and Riddings ward, and the new construction on James St, Riddings being in Somercotes with no distinct boundary). This should ideally be addressed also. My other main concern is on the move of Waingroves and parts of Codnor into Heanor Central Division. While I can reluctantly see a logic for the bits of Codnor that border Loscoe being in the same division as 08/06/2012 Page 2 of 2 Loscoe, there is no sense in Waingroves being moved into Heanor given that it elects a councillor on to Ripley Town Council. It should form part of either of the 2 proposed Ripley divisions. I would prefer Codnor to be retained wholly in the Ripley East and Codnor division but recognise that the numbers make this difficult to achieve.

  • A Local History of Ironville & Codnor Park
    A Local History of Ironville & Codnor Park 1 In the Beginning Before Ironville or Codnor Park there was a place called Smithycote. Smithycote was a settlement in the Codnor Park area, mentioned in the Domesday Book. The names of the Anglo Saxon residents and other information is also detailed. Now “long lost” probably “disappearing” when Codnor Castle was constructed and the surrounding parkland developed. Codnor Park including what is now known as The Forge was set up by the de Grey family who were granted the area by William the Conqueror. For their part in the Norman Conquest of England Close to the village is one of only two medieval castles retaining its original medieval architecture in the whole of the county of Derbyshire, (the only other being Peveril Castle in the Peak District). Codnor Castle has a very rich history and the castle site dates back to the 12th century. The castle was the home and power base for one of medieval England’s most powerful families for 300 years - the De Grey family, also known as the Baron's Grey of Codnor. This medieval fortress was once grand enough to play host to royal visits including that of King Edward II in 1342. The Castle is open to the Public every second Sunday of the month throughout the year. The de Greys were loyal to the King whoever he was (they fought for Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth and ingratiated themselves to the victor Henry VII, and so their castle survived when others such as Duffield Castle were destroyed in 1267 after the 2nd Barons War.
