  • South Ribble Borough Council
    ELECTORAL REVIEW OF SOUTH RIBBLE BOROUGH COUNCIL 1 Electoral Review of South Ribble Borough Council Introduction Each year, the Local Government Boundary Commission for England audits the levels of electoral imbalances arising in each English local authority area in order to establish whether there is a need for an electoral review. Imbalances can arise from changing demographics and new developments, and movement of electors between local authority areas, as well as within individual areas. There are two elements that the Commission takes into account when assessing the need for an electoral review. Both relate to the level of electoral representation within a local authority area. Electoral inequality exists when voters are either over-represented or under-represented by their local councillor(s) in relation to average levels of representation for the authority as a whole. Under the criteria adopted by the Commission, if either of the following conditions is found to exist, then consideration is given to the need for a review: • Any local authority with a division or ward that has an electoral variance in excess of 30%. This means a division or ward having at least 30% more (or less) electors in it than the average for the authority as a whole; and/or • Any local authority where more than 30% of the divisions or wards have an electoral variance in excess of 10% from the average for that authority. On the basis of the latest data available, our authority appears to meet the selection criteria, with 9 of our 27 wards (33%) having an electoral variance in excess of 10%.

  • A Walk Around St. Leonard's Parish Boundary, Penwortham
    A Walk around St. Leonard’s Parish Boundary, Penwortham. Background. Penwortham is one of the ancient parishes of Lancashire. Until the 17th century it comprised of the townships of Longton, Howick, Penwortham, Farington and Hutton. In the early medieval period it also comprised of Brindle. The earliest written record of a church at Penwortham dates from the 1140’s. Map courtesy of Alan Crosby from his book “Penwortham in the past” Middleforth the township (which acquired it’s name from the middle ford on the River Ribble) was gradually growing in the early first part of the 19th century and the Vicar of St. Mary’s Rev. W.E. Rawstorne decided that the time was right to build a chapel school. Middleforth Chapel School opened in 1861 in the village, situated on the corner of Leyland Road and Marshall’s Brow. In 1901 a prefabricated iron church was built next to the school. This was in use until the present church was opened in 1970. As St. Leonard’s Church in Middleforth grew further, it was soon able to manage its own affairs and in 1959 became a conventional district but still in the Parish of St. Mary, Penwortham. Further growth took place with Penwortham becoming part of the Central Lancashire New Town. It was therefore decided that St. Leonard’s could stand alone from St. Mary’s and a new benefice of the Parish of St. Leonard, Penwortham was established on 1 April 1972 by an Order in Council dated 1 March 1972. The area concerned was taken out of the ancient parish of St.

Od., and so great has been the increased value of land, that when the Charity Commissioners- issued their report in 1846, its annual value was £850, and .oit has since advanced to upwards of £1,200 per annum, but this has been seriously diminished by expenditure out of capital upon building several elementary schools in the ancient Parish of Penwortham. In 1876 a new scheme for the administration of the school was made by the Charity Commissioners, but it was not carried into effect until1878. Bv it the character of the school has been entirely changed, as no boys are now free, and provision is made for -boarders, who form the majority oi pupils. With a view to this, the Governors spent -a considerable sum of money in altering the buildings so as to adapt them for the purpose, a new wing being added, containing a large dining hall, dormitories for 50 boys, bath-rooms, &c. ; also, in 1885, a large room, 65 feet long and 20 feet wide, was erected to serve the double purpose of a gymnasium and drill hall.
