Walks Programme Dec20-Feb21 Basildon & District Rambling Club - WALKS PROGRAMME: December 2020 to februARY 2021 Please see info notes below the walks listing CURRENT COVID GUIDANCE We do not typically exceed an attendance of 30 members at any one walk. However if we do exceed this amount, we may split the walk into two groups, if possible, or the walk will have to be on the basis of the first 30. For this reason we suggest you book in with the leader ahead of turning up. Please take note of the walk leaders’ summary of the walk as this may have information regarding any pinch points such as stiles where social distancing may need to be considered. For track and trace purposes we will need to check who has actually turned up. This will take about 5 minutes or so and will be done shortly before the walk.

In the winter months walks tending towards the shorter and summer months the longer. Please allow time before the walk starts for putting on boots etc. Any queries regarding a walk, please contact the Leader or if unavailable, phone 07906 118980 If you want to see a map of the walking area and start point, there are a number of computer apps you can do this with, such as https://gridreferencefinder.com or http://www.streetmap.co.uk Using these apps is quite straight forward but details of how to use the streetmap app is on our website. We would recommend using the grid reference, as post codes can cover a larger area. Also check any descriptions in the start point details as these may help when you get near the start. Any alterations to a walk will be notified as soon as possible, and will appear in the ‘News Section’ of the Club website. Please be aware that occasionally these changes can be “last minute” Club Notices Stay behind the leader, and keep up with other walkers and be confident that you are well enough to do the walk. However, if you decide to leave a walk before the end you should inform the leader. Please take note of the weather before a walk and prepare accordingly, water, raincoat, etc. Don’t forget any medications you may need such as hay fever tablets Whilst walking with the Club you do so at your own risk and you are responsible for your own safety. Neither the Basildon & District Rambling Club nor the leader shall be held responsible for the death, injury, accident or damage to the person or property of any members, guest or any other person occurring during or arising from participation in any Basildon & District Rambling Club activities. A Public Liability Insurance is held by Basildon & District Rambling Club for the benefit of subscribed members. This insurance does not cover personal indemnity. Sorry, only ‘Registered Assistance Dogs’ will be permitted on walks, but do check with the leader first to make sure that the walk is suitable for dogs (for example, difficult terrain or areas where livestock are present). PLEASE PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT AND OBSERVE THE COUNTRYSIDE CODE: KEEP TO THE PATHS, DO NOT CLIMB OVER GATES OR FENCES UNLESS IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY Walks NOT on a Saturday may have different starting times and/or other arrangements. Please check our website for details. Anyone interested in leading a walk please contact Fred Taylor .

Nearest station Rainham . to finish: Section distance: 4 miles (6.4 kilometres). Introduction. This section starts with the fascinating Upminster Windmill and generally follows the River Ingrebourne. You walk through Hornchurch Country Park which has gone through several phases as a farm, military airfield, gravel quarry and rubbish tip, until its acquisition in 1980 by the local authority. The terrain is almost completely level with tarmac or firm gravel paths and there are no stiles, so all this section is very accessible. There are pubs at Upminster Bridge, Hacton Lane, Rainham Road, Rainham village, and cafes and toilets at Rainham and Hornchurch Country Park. There is also a toilet next to Upminster Bridge station. Directions. Leave Upminster Bridge station and turn right onto the busy Upminster Road. Go under the railway bridge and past The Windmill pub on the left. Cross lngrebourne River and then turn right into Bridge Avenue. To visit the Upminster Windmill continue along the main road for a short distance. The windmill is on the left. Did you know? Upminster Windmill was built in 1803 by a local farmer and continued to grind wheat and produce flour until 1934. The mill is only open on occasional weekends in spring and summer for guided tours, and funds are currently being raised to restore the mill to working order. Continue along Bridge Avenue to Brookdale Avenue on the left and opposite is Hornchurch Stadium.

  • Traffic Noise Maps of Public Parks in Havering May 2018
    Traffic noise maps of public parks in Havering May 2018 This document shows traffic noise maps for parks in the borough. The noise maps are taken from http://www.extrium.co.uk/noiseviewer.html. Occasionally, google earth or google map images are included to help the reader identify where the park is located. Similar documents are available for all London Boroughs. These were created as part of research into the impact of traffic noise in London’s parks. They should be read in conjunction with the main report and data analysis which are available at http://www.cprelondon.org.uk/resources/item/2390-noiseinparks. The key to the traffic noise maps is shown here to the right. Orange denotes noise of 55 decibels (dB). Louder noises are denoted by reds and blues with dark blue showing the loudest. Where the maps appear with no colour and are just grey, this means there is no traffic noise of 55dB or above. London Borough of Havering 1 Bretons Outdoor Recreation Centre 1. Coronation Gardens 2.

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions. The All London Green Grid SPG was developed in parallel with the area frameworks it can be found at the following link: http://www.london.gov.uk/publication/all-london- green-grid-spg . Cover Image: The river Rom near Collier Row As a key partner, the Thames Chase Trust welcomes the opportunity to continue working with the All Foreword London Green Grid through the Area 3 Framework.

  • Discover London's Wildlife
    DISCOVER LONDON’S WILDLIFE 1 LONDON BIRD CLUB A section of The London Natural London Natural History Society History Society #londonbirds @londonbirdclub Version: Jan 2019 londonbirdclub @LNHSoc www.lnhs.org.uk CONTENTS PART 01 London Bird Club Talks PART 02 London Natural History Society Programme PART 03 Events from other London wildlife organisations London Wetland Centre, Barnes LONDON BIRD CLUB A section of the London Natural History Society 2 INTRODUCTION TO THIS PACK London is one of the greatest capital cities in the world. What is less well known is that it is also one of the best places in the world to enjoy wildlife, and to acquire the skills of a naturalist and wildlife photographer. A large and varied network of reserves and some of the best wildlife-visitor infrastructure in the world, means that London is a surprisingly good destination for wildlife photographers, naturalists and tourists. The presence of a number of local natural history clubs and societies who organise field meetings led by outstanding all-round naturalists means it is also probably unmatched in the potential it offers for people to build their skills as naturalists. Furthermore, London has a long history of having some of the world’s pre-eminent scientific and biological institutions, together with smaller local societies also with long histories staging public talks ranging from cutting edge science to discovering wildlife in your backyard. London is amazing for enjoying wildlife and for developing field skills. For tourism companies, London is attractive with its high density of affluent travellers with an interest in wildlife.
