Failand Wocds April 2019 This is a Grade 4 walk approx 3½ miles PORTISHEAD STROLLERS FAILAND WOODLANDS An additional walk on Monday April 8th Meet at 10:15 in the car park of Failand Village Hall which is located on the Clevedon - Bristol road, past Tyntesfield and just past The Failand Inn. Turn left at the cross roads on which the Post Office and van sales company is sited. Please park considering other users of the hall. Starting from Failand Village Hall, we walk across fields to Green Lane.

Cooper, Mark From: Fuller, Heather Sent: 02 April 2014 10:47 To: Cooper, Mark Subject: FW: Wraxall and Failand Parish - Review of N. Somerset Council ward boundaries From: Robert Hellen [ Sent: 02 April 2014 10:17 To: Reviews@ Subject: Wraxall and Failand Parish – Review of N. Somerset Council ward boundaries I object most strongly to the proposal to split the Parish of Wraxall and Failand between the two Wards of “Wraxall and Gordano” and “Pill and Easton In Gordano” in North Somerset, following “Map B”. I have a strong preference for the proposals in “Map A” for the following reasons: I understand that this proposal results from objections from Portbury and Pill/Easton in Gordano that splitting the parish between two wards would create difficulties in reaching agreements between the representatives. The new proposal regarding Failand is much worse in that four elected representatives, rather than the two we currently have, would have to obtain a full understanding of the Parish Council’s concerns in order to properly represent them. If it was felt that splitting another parish might be problematic, what sense is there in splitting ours? This proposal would be highly detrimental to the interests of Wraxall and Failand Parish Council and the people it represents.
