  • The Warburtons of Edenfield
    The Warburtons of Edenfield Last Updated 4th August 2021 ©2018 to 2021 Ray Warburton PREFACE The Warburtons of Edenfield first appear in the Halmote Records of Tottington Manor in the early 16th century although there is an earlier mention of a probable ancestor on a rental from 1442. A paper called Warburton References in the Halmote Records of Tottington Manor can be found on the Pages page of the website. The tree is based on an original tree provided by Anthony Carter, with additional input from Nicolas Blackhurst, and David Hardman. It has been considerably extended by my own research and information on additional lines from Robert Warburton, Colin Warburton, and Sharron Newhouse. A paper called Edenfield Clan and Related Peters can be found on the Papers page of the website. There are two matching DNA Profiles from the clan, including a BigY result. There are several other matches from clans with origins in the area which together form The Lancashire Group. It is likely these other clans are branches of the Edenfield clan though the exact links have yet to be found.

Location:,Stubbins Cemetery. Assessment: A full arboricultural survey report has been submitted with the application. The eight trees in question are in different stages of infection by Chalara and some are in worse health then others. All of them, however, are visibly dying back, dropping branches and only likely to deteriorate further. Given their locations in a public space and with some close to adjacent property, it is reasonable to allow their felling on safety grounds. Replacement planting will mitigate. Decision: Consent: Eight Ash – Fell. Conditions: 1. All work in accordance with BS 3998 (2010) Tree work recommendations in the interests of health and amenity of adjacent trees and of safety. 2. That within the first available planting season after the trees hereby approved have been felled, eight replacement 10 – 12 cms standard Tilia cordata (Lime) shall be planted in or as close as reasonably possible to the location of the original trees. If within a period of five years from the date of planting, these trees (or any other tree planted in replacement for them) is removed, uprooted or destroyed or dies, another tree(s) of the same size and species shall be planted at the same place, unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority.

  • Lancashire: a Chronology of Flash Flooding
    LANCASHIRE: A CHRONOLOGY OF FLASH FLOODING Introduction The past focus on the history of flooding has been mainly with respect to flooding from the overflow of rivers and with respect to the peak level that these floods have achieved. The Chronology of British Hydrological Events provides a reasonably comprehensive record of such events throughout Great Britain. Over the last 60 years the river gauging network provides a detailed record of the occurrence of river flows and peak levels and flows are summaried in HiflowsUK. However there has been recent recognition that much flooding of property occurs from surface water flooding, often far from rivers. Locally intense rainfall causes severe flooding of property and land as water concentrates and finds pathways along roads and depressions in the landscape. In addition, intense rainfall can also cause rapid rise in level and discharge in rivers causing a danger to the public even though the associated peak level is not critical. In extreme cases rapid rise in river level may be manifested as a ‘wall of water’ with near instantaneous rise in level of a metre or more. Such events are usually convective and may be accompanied by destructive hail or cause severe erosion of hillsides and agricultural land. There have been no previous compilations of historical records of such ‘flash floods’or even of more recent occurrences. It is therefore difficult to judge whether a recent event is unusual or even unique in terms of the level reached at a particular location or more broadly of regional severity. This chronology of flash floods is provided in order to enable comparisons to be made between recent and historical floods, to judge rarity and from a practical point of view to assess the adequacy of urban drainage networks.

  • Infrastructure Delivery Plan
    ROSSENDALE INFRASTRUCTURE DELIVERY PLAN August 2018 Infrastructure Delivery Plan Executive Summary Introduction • Purpose and relation to Plan Infrastructure types • Education • Transport • Utilities o Water and sewerage o Electricity o Gas o Telecommunications • Health • Emergency services • Community services Appendix Health Executive Summary Much of the infrastructure in Rossendale, as in many parts of the country, dates from the Victorian era and has been progressively added to as new development comes forward. While utilities have an ongoing maintenance programme, additional growth brought forward by the Plan will necessitate new infrastructure investment. Much of this will be required on a case by case basis as new development comes on stream. Education A number of schools in the Borough, at both Primary and Secondary level are operating close to capacity. All but two of the Borough’s Secondary Schools are close to capacity while Primary Schools in the South West of the Borough and in Rawtenstall/Crawshawbooth are expected to reach capacity in the first five years of the Plan period with Whitworth having very limited capacity. Improvements will be dealt with on a case by case basis but are likely to involve construction of new classrooms at some schools and probably a new school or school extension in Edenfield (around £4 million). Transport Improvements to strategic transport, in particular links to Manchester via the A56/M66, will be delivered in the second and third 5 year periods of the Plan and are dependent on Highways England/Transport for the North funding. A number of key junctions in the Borough require interventions to accommodate Local Plan induced traffic in the second and third 5 year periods of the Plan.
