Page 2 MEASHAM MESSENGER MEASHAM MESSENGER Page 3 Page 4 MEASHAM MESSENGER The Heart of the Forest Festival Saturday 22 nd June 2013 Dear Parishioners, It’s hard to believe that whilst we are in the midst of winter, we are only 5 months away from this year’s Festival. However, plans are already in place to bring you another fabulous day, giving everyone in Measham the opportunity to celebrate the 7th anniversary of our award winning annual event with family and friends. Once again the Festival received recognition from the county in receiving a ‘Highly Commended’ Award for the ‘Best Com- munity Event 2012’, on top of a cash award to purchase Safety Radios for the parish. These radios will not only be used regularly by the Festival for the safe running of the Parade and events on the Leisure grounds, but be available for all other groups to use, as required. The theme for this year’s event will be ‘Uniformed Services’, giving many groups, organisations and services, as well as local children and clubs, the opportunity to take part in our grand parade. We already have some bookings, but we are on the look-out for more. Do you have a family member who is in the armed services, or maybe a cadet in one of the services, or maybe a member of a club or organisation where a uniform is the standard dress code? And if so, would they and their group like to be in the parade? If yes, we would be delighted to hear from you. We are also in the midst of trying to resurrect the use of ‘Floats’. This point has been raised by many of you in the feedback we have received over the years, but strict rules have prevented their use. However, there has been some relaxation on this rule and the committee are now working hard with the powers that be to adopt a safe process where we can reintro- duce floats into the Parade. So please watch this space for further information as we progress with our plans. Finally, for this update, we would like to thank everyone of you for supporting the event last year, and every Measham business that financially supported its delivery. It’s true to say that unless we have the generous support of local business/ organisations, the event wouldn’t happen, so it’s only fitting that we thank the following businesses and organisations for the financial contribution that they make to our Festival. Therefore, on behalf of the organising committee, a massive thank you to the following.

We issue this response in the spirit of contributing to the processes surrounding this vast infrastructure project, but must include the caveat that the Council can only respond to the material to hand and further intensive work with HS2 Ltd is required to fully understand the impacts for Leicestershire and the most appropriate mitigation. ii) The Council recognises that the WDES is a draft document. However, it is disappointing that even in draft; there is a distinct lack of information provided in sections of the WDES, especially regarding the proposed scheme’s constructional and operational impacts and in respect of its design. But, the Council have determined to use this as an opportunity to shape the design and mitigation across the County. Where clear mitigation is not yet defined, the Council will seek to secure assurances from HS2 Ltd that further work will be carried out to inform the preparation of the Hybrid Bill, including HS2 Ltd preparing an Interim Transport Assessment (including sensitivity testing), and during the Parliamentary processes.

  • HS2 and Appleby Magna Response by Appleby Magna Parish Council to the Draft Environmental Statement – December 2018
    Appleby Magna Parish Council - Response to HS2 HS2 and Appleby Magna Response by Appleby Magna Parish Council to the Draft Environmental Statement – December 2018 1. Appleby Magna and Parva – characteristics and facilities HS2’s Draft Environmental Statement provides accounts of Appleby’s characteristics and facilities in a number of sections. The Parish Council has identified omissions, inaccuracies and limitations. Rather than detail these section by section we would like to start with our own description of Appleby Parish. Appleby Parish Map As can be seen from the map left the parish of Appleby includes both the village of Appleby Magna and the hamlet of Appleby Parva. The parish runs to the outskirts of Measham (at Birds Hill) and Snarestone village. It is primarily a rural parish, including a number of farms. The M42 runs through the West of the parish. Housing in Appleby Parva is primarily on, or close to, the A444 towards Nuneaton. However, Appleby Magna is unusual in being close to, but not located on, any major road. This is important for its sense of place. The Appleby Magna and Appleby Parva Village Design Statement (which was the result of extensive public consultation and participation and became adopted as supplementary planning guidance) identified four elements of village character which development should seek to conserve: community spirit, rural nature, heritage, and quality and diversity of design (guideline 1). The minor village roads connecting the village to the major road network also attract significant numbers of cyclists and horse riders. Appleby Magna has been subject to significant housing growth in the last couple of years.

  • The Manors of Allexton, Appleby and Ashby Folville
    The Manors of Allexton, Appleby and Ashby Folville. BY GEORGE FARNHAM, M.A., F.S.A., AND A. HAMILTON THOMPSON, M.A., F.S.A. PREFACE. Since the appearance of Nichols' History of Leicestershire, pub­ lished between 1795 and 1815, the materials for original work upon local history and topography have been considerably extended, and many classes of documents are now available for research which serve at once to supplement and correct the information contained in the older county histories.. While Nichols' famous volumes must always remain the foundation for any future work upon the history of Leicestershire, the student who knows how to make use of them finds that their statements constantly stand in need of verification and that their accuracy is seriously impaired by their author's partial and arbitrary use of his documents. For some time past the present writers have entertained the idea of bringing together the results of their several collections of material illus­ trating the manorial and ecclesiastical annals of the county, and it will be found that the notes which follow in the form of con­ nected narratives endeavour to fill up gaps in the story of the three places concerned and to present in consecutive order information which hitherto has been treated merely in outline or overlooked altogether. For the chief part of the work, tracing the descent of the manors, and for the pedigrees Mr. Farnham is responsible. The notes upon advowsons and the lists of incumbents, which con­ siderably amplify Nichols' imperfect and carelessly compiled lists, are supplied by his collaborator.

Some define the character valued by residents and include places of visual qualities, such as Village Design Statements, others assess how sustainable a settlement is, a Parish or Community Led Plan, and then there are assessments that concentrate more on future development, the Neighbourhood Plan for example. ‘Placecheck’ attempts to contribute something new, it is a method of taking the first steps in deciding how to improve an area. ‘Placecheck’ can lead to anything from a litter pick at one end of a scale to neighbourhood plan at the other. 2) Format The Moira ‘Placecheck’ was initiated in February 2014, following a successful submission to Leicestershire County Council’s ‘Big Society Fund’ by the Ashby WouldsTown Clerk.
