A right wing group seeks to rise roughshod over relationships that have endured for decades. Many citizens would like to return to how it was in the 1960s. Others feel what they were promised in the 1970s is different to how things have turned out. Meanwhile, remainers are striving to find any legal means to prevent what the government intends. Yes, we have to face it – the plans for a Unitary Council in Buckinghamshire are not going well. As the erstwhile Bucks district councils plan legal action against the Secretary of State’s scheme, one wonders again just why our County Councillor is so, to use his phrase, ‘delighted’, at Mr Brokenshire’s decision. Some call for a ‘Buxit’ with us re-locating in the Royal Borough and I recommend Virginia Silvester’s article in this issue on the evolution of Bucks’ borders to get an idea of how Dorney came to be poised on the edge of two counties. Anybody reading the Parish Council minutes in this issue will see how our representatives believe that decisions over liaison with the M4 Project are being taken far to the north of Dorney.

  • South Bucks Councillor Update Economic Profile of Farnham Royal Ward
    South Bucks Councillor Update Economic Profile of Farnham Royal Ward April 2014 Produced by Buckinghamshire Business First’s research department P a g e | 2 1.0 Introduction Farnham Royal is home to 5,499 people and provides 2,300 jobs in 62 businesses. Of these businesses, 25 (40.3 per cent) are Buckinghamshire Business First members. There were 3,814 employed people aged 16-74 living in Farnham Royal ward at the 2011 Census, 340 more than the 3,474 recorded in 2001. Over that period the working age population rose 297 to 3,272 while the total population rose 516 to 5,499. The number of households rose by 194 (10.0 per cent) to 2,126. This is a significant percentage increase and places the ward fourth out of all wards in South Bucks. Based on the increase in number of households, the ward ranks 18th out of all wards in Buckinghamshire. The largest companies in Farnham Royal include: Wyevale Garden Centres Ltd; Caldicott Preparatory School; A Perfect Valet; Farnham Common Infant School; Bishop Sports & Leisure Ltd; E P Rothwell & Sons Ltd; and Dair House School Trust Ltd. There are 38 Farnham Royal, representing 1.2 per cent of working age residents, including 25 claimants aged 25-49 and 25 who have been claiming for less than six months. Superfast broadband is expected to be available to 97 per cent of premises in the Farnham Royal ward by March 2016 with commercial providers responsible for the full 97 per cent. The Connected Counties project, run by BBF, will deliver no superfast broadband following this sufficient coverage from commercial suppliers.

  • Neolithic to Early Bronze Age Buckinghamshire: a Resource Assessment
    Neolithic to Early Bronze Age Buckinghamshire: a resource assessment Inheritance Mobility Although Neolithic populations are thought to have had continued mobility, more and more evidence for Neolithic settlement has come to light. In Buckinghamshire the most important evidence comes from excavations in advance of the construction of Eton Rowing Course (ERC) and the Maidenhead to Windsor and Eton Flood Alleviation Scheme (MWEFAS), mainly in the parish of Dorney in South Bucks on the Thames. The evidence points to intensive use of the area by people in the Early Neolithic but it is not certain that it represents year-round sedentary occupation rather than seasonal re-use (Allen et al 2004). Other evidence does point to continued mobility, such as the artefact scatters at Scotsgrove Mill, Haddenham (Mitchell 2004) and East Street, Chesham (Collard 1990) for example, reflecting visits over a long period of time. Persistent places Mesolithic persistent places continue to have meaning for Early and later Neolithic populations. These persistent places include East Street, Chesham (Collard 1990, 18) and Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age activity at Chessvale Bowling Club nearby (Halsted 2006, 23-8). Another persistent place seems to have been the lower reaches of the River Colne. Recent excavations at the Sanderson Site, Denham (Halsey 2005) continued the activity from nearby Three Ways Wharf, Uxbridge (Lewis 1991). Other persistent places include the attractive river valley location at Bancroft in Milton Keynes (Williams 1993, 5), and Scotsgrove Mill, Haddenham, where the River Thame meets one of its tributaries (Mitchell 2004, 1). These persistent places may have been the basis of evolving ideas about land tenure.

  • Trumper's Field
    TRUMPER’S FIELD Trumper’s Field is a familiar part of Dorney to most of us. Sandwiched between the school and the motorway, providing access to the river, it is used by walkers with dogs or without, and children play there every day after school. Sadly, at the moment it is disfigured by earthworks and fencing for the motorway works. Who knows if the orchids that used to bloom there in the spring will ever reappear? I was asked recently if I knew where the name Trumper’s Field came from. While I don’t have cast iron proof, I’m sure it was named after the Trumper family, who were substantial farmers in the neighbourhood for over 100 years, through 4 generations. Although we’ve no evidence that the family ever farmed the field that now bears their name, we do know that in the 19th century Joseph Trumper rented the large arable field called Oak Stubbs where Dorney Reach now lies. It seems only right that a family which had such a big impact on life in Dorney should be remembered. (Regular readers of this magazine may recall that I have written previously in its pages about the Trumpers. Bear with me, please, as I know more about them now than I did then). The Trumper family first arrived in the area around 1783. Joseph and Sarah Trumper came from Iver, where most of their children were born, but Joseph died shortly afterwards, leaving his widow with 5 children under the age of 12. She brought them up at West Town Farm, while running the farm business there and at Lake End Farm.

From Dominic Grieve QC MP As I write this piece, the rain is falling outside and the long-range weather forecast predicts a wet winter. I hope it may be mistaken as my trips round the constituency show me that ground and river water levels remain high after last winter’s offering. Fortunately much of Fulmer being an old settlement was wisely placed in dry locations, something which modern development often ignores. Firm foundations both terrestrial and moral are a good place to withstand the vicissitudes which daily life throws up for us. I am conscious that the year has been not without its challenges. The prospect of the start of development at Pinewood is a source of anxiety and we must strive to ensure that the process and the end result preserve Fulmer’s charms.
