    Police Report for the Parish Councils of Haslington, Crewe Green and Barthomley 1st December 2020- 31st December 2020 These councils have been grouped together due to their geographical proximity and size. The Dingle Primary School- On 4/12 there was a bomb hoax at the school. A call was made saying a bomb was on site but it was quickly ascertained by police that it was a hoax and there was no risk to the school. The offender has been identified and is currently being dealt with by PC Martin and PCSO Jolley for the specific offence of a Bomb Hoax contrary to Section 51 Criminal Law Act 1977. The offender is a juvenile who is being bullied and this has played into the incident. In addition to the offender being dealt with, the High School where the other involved parties attend and their parents will be spoken to and dealt with. An update will hopefully be available for the Parish Council around February 2021.

  • 11/4228N Location: 202, CREWE ROAD, HASLINGTON, CHESHIRE
    Application No: 11/4228N Location: 202, CREWE ROAD, HASLINGTON, CHESHIRE, CW1 5RT Proposal: Erection of Three Detached Dwellings Applicant: Cranford Estates Expiry Date: 06-Jan-2012 MAIN ISSUES The main issues are:- - Principle of the development - Design and layout, - Impact on highway safety, - Living conditions, - Ecology, - Trees and landscape - Contaminated land. SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION APPROVE subject to receipt of amended plans and conditions OR If amended plans not received REFUSE due to harm to protected trees REFERRAL The Application has been called into Committee by Councillor Hammond for the following reason: “Haslington Parish Council has requested that the application be determined by Committee as it is considered that the proposed development significantly contravenes Policy NE2 of the Crewe and Nantwich Local Plan and represents unwarranted development in the Open Countryside. I strongly recommend that a site visit would be helpful to Members on this occasion.” 1. SITE DESCRIPTION AND DETAILS OF PROPOSAL The site is located on the south side of Crewe Road to the north east of the settlement of Haslington. It comprises a single, pre-fabricated, dwelling set in substantial landscaped gardens. Towards the front of the site, but within the garden area, are foundations for a further dwelling. These extend above ground level and are clearly visible. The site is surrounded to the north, east and west by existing residential development (mix of semi- detached and detached properties in large plots,) whilst to the south is open countryside. The proposal involves demolition of the existing dwelling and the erection of 3 large detached family houses, with associated parking and gardens in a ribbon development fronting on to Crewe Road.

  • Village Introduction, History and Landscape
    Village Introduction, History and Landscape Nestling in the Cheshire countryside, the Village is generally regarded as one of the most pleasant places to live in the UK offering an outstanding quality of life, this is due to the wide range of facilities on offer, beautiful surrounding countryside, superb commuter links, and friendly community feel. Holmes Chapel, also known as Church Hulme, was originally named Hulme, derived from Hulm or Holm, meaning rising ground. Holmes Chapel lies just South of the river Dane and many properties in the area enjoy views over the river plain. At the heart of the village is the historic church of St Luke, this is only one of three buildings to survive the great fire of 1753, evidence of the scorching can still be seen on the lime trees within the churchyard today. Since then the village has been re-built and expanded and over the course of time many new houses have appeared and spread the population over a wide area. The majority of housing was constructed since the late 1960s, however a good proportion of property towards the town centre is Victorian/Edwardian. There are two impressive local landmarks in the area: A testament to the Victorian era in the form of the Holmes Chapel railway viaduct, built in 1840, which dominates the landscape at Twemlow. The Jodrell Bank telescope can be seen for miles around, located on the Cheshire plains just outside Goostrey, it is currently Europe's largest radio telescope and responsible for many astronomical discoveries. Holmes chapel offers far more than one might

  • Appendix 4 Detailed Proposals for Each Ward – Organised by Local Area Partnership (LAP)
    Appendix 4 Detailed proposals for each Ward – organised by Local Area Partnership (LAP) Proposed Wards within the Knutsford Local Area Partnership Knutsford Local Area Partnership (LAP) is situated towards the north-west of Cheshire East, and borders Wilmslow to the north-east, Macclesfield to the south-east and Congleton to the south. The M6 and M56 motorways pass through this LAP. Hourly train services link Knutsford, Plumley and Mobberley to Chester and Manchester, while in the east of this LAP hourly trains link Chelford with Crewe and Manchester. The town of Knutsford was the model for Elizabeth Gaskell's novel Cranford and scenes from the George C. Scott film Patton were filmed in the centre of Knutsford, in front of the old Town Hall. Barclays Bank employs thousands of people in IT and staff support functions at Radbroke Hall, just outside the town of Knutsford. Knutsford is home to numerous sporting teams such as Knutsford Hockey Club, Knutsford Cricket Club, Knutsford Rugby Club and Knutsford Football Club. Attractions include Tatton Park, home of the RHS Flower show, the stately homes Arley Hall, Tabley House and Peover Hall, and the Cuckooland Museum of cuckoo clocks. In detail, the proposals are: Knutsford is a historic, self-contained urban community with established extents and comprises the former County Ward of Knutsford, containing 7 polling districts. The Parish of Knutsford also mirrors the boundary of this proposal. Knutsford Town is surrounded by Green Belt which covers 58% of this proposed division. The proposed ward has excellent communications by road, motorway and rail and is bounded to the north by Tatton Park and to the east by Birkin Brook.

  • The Congleton Accounts: Further Evidence of Elizabethan and Jacobean Drama in Cheshire
    ALAN C . COMAN The Congleton accounts: further evidence of Elizabethan and Jacobean drama in Cheshire Last summer, while conducting my research into the influence on Elizabethan and Jacobean drama of schoolmasters and household tutors in the northwest of England - viz, Cheshire, Lancashire, Shropshire (Salop) and Westmorland (Cumbria) - I came across some evidence of dramatic activities in Congleton that I believe are as yet undocumented but are significant in several respects . Since it was a chance discovery right at the end of my stay, what is presented here is only a cursory examination of the records, not a thorough and complete study . In the Cheshire County Record Office, I had occasion to consult Robert Head's Congleton Past and Present, published in 1887 and republished presumably as a centenary tribute in 1987, and History of Congleton, edited by W .B. Stephens and published in 1970 to celebrate the 700th anniversary of the town's royal charter.' Although my immediate concern was with the history of Congleton Grammar School and any possible dramatic activity connected with it, I was struck by references to the town's notorious week-long cockfights and bearbaits, and the even more intriguing assertions that the cockpit was usually in the school and that the schoolmaster was the controller and director of the pastime, reclaiming all runaway cocks as his own rightful perquisites . Head's book gave an entry from the borough's accounts : `1601. Payd John Wagge for dressyige the schoolhouse at the great cock fyghte . ..0.0.4d'. Because the aforementioned sports and pastimes were said to have drawn all the local gentry and nobility to the schoolhouse, the schoolmaster might also have undertaken some dramatic activities ; the town could have attracted touring companies at such times .
