The Minutes of the meetings held on 16 April and 21 May 2008 were taken as read and signed by the Chair. 2. Matters Arising The thanks of the Cabinet were conveyed to Councillor Lise Noakes for all her work over the past year as Cabinet Member for Performance and Resources. 6.0 PUBLIC QUESTION TIME (15 MINUTES) 1. Kay Powell of 27 Bathurst Road, Gloucester, GL1 4RR asked a question to the Cabinet Member for Environment regarding the continuing problem with fly-tipping on the Tredworth Allotments at the end of Hartland Road. She advised that she had reported three incidents in the last week and asked when the CCTV camera promised two years ago, was going to be installed. 1 Page 2 CABINET 05.06.08 The Cabinet Member for Environment advised that he was not aware that CCTV had been promised to be installed in that area. He agreed to look into the matter and respond in writing to Kay Powell. 2. Kay Powell of 27 Bathurst Road, Gloucester, GL1 4RR asked a further question to the Cabinet Member for Heritage and Leisure. She advised that although it was good that Parry Field was to have money spent on it for the first time in 20 years she was concerned that money had been withdrawn from the White City Adventure Playground. The Cabinet Member for Heritage and Leisure advised that he would respond in writing. Note: A letter was subsequently sent to Ms Powell which confirmed the following: The only funding allocated to the White City Adventure Project I'm aware of was from the recent Big Lottery Play award. They have received £5,000 for improving the play bark surfacing. I believe the White City group are encountering resource problems but the City Council (Parks or Streetcare) would not have revenue funding to support their staff. The money for Parry Fields has come from; £15,000 from section 106 contribution from Barnaby Rd site. This can only be used for publicly accessible built facilities not for revenue funding. £60,000 Play area refurbishment capital budget. £20,000 from Sports development fund applied for by local community group and funding from Community Counts. 3. Terry Haines advised Members of the problems at the Blackbridge Athletics Club. He informed Councillors that 18 members had been lost to Clubs outside the city and that a break-in had caused the loss of £6000 of junior athletic equipment. The Athletics Club was now unable to hold competitions at the Blackbridge track. He asked if the Cabinet Member was prepared to take representations on the use of the Blackbridge Athletics track for competitions? The Cabinet Member for Heritage and Leisure advised replied that he was holding a meeting on 17 June 2008 with Officers to review use of the track. Following that meeting he would know the way forward. He agreed to take representations from Mr Haines prior to the meeting. 4. Barry Leach, Chair of City Centre Community Partnership, asked “Is it the City Council’s intention to develop a city-wide public art strategy as suggested in this document? Also – side by side with this, the views of the City Council would be welcome on the idea that a post of City Public Art Officer should be created at the earliest opportunity. Such an Officer could not only help ensure future sustainability of public art in Gloucester but also aid community 2 Page 3 CABINET 05.06.08 involvement in the development of vibrant public art throughout the city – an important element in social and economic regeneration.” The Leader of the Council responded that the ‘Place for Arts’ had been adopted by the URC and much funding was being put into it. He could give no commitment to the creation of an Arts Officer post but agreed to explore this with partners. The Leader of the Council agreed to respond in writing to Mr Leach. 7.0 PETITIONS AND DEPUTATIONS (10 MINUTES) There were no petitions or deputations. 8.0 FORWARD PLAN The Cabinet Forward Plan (July – October 2008) was approved. 9.0 POLICY FOR DEALING WITH TRAVELLING PEOPLE IN GLOUCESTER CITY (ES20807) The report by the Cabinet Member for Housing and Health sought approval of the policy for dealing with travelling people in Gloucester City. In accordance with Government Guidance the County Council (in partnership with the Police) produced a Protocol for managing unauthorised traveller encampments. This Guidance was then presented to all District Councils with a request to agree the principals. To date the County Council and all of the Gloucestershire District Councils (except Gloucester) had signed up to the Protocol. The Head of Legal Services had advised that the Protocol should form part of an overall policy dealing with a range of issues relating to the traveller community. The Cabinet Member for Housing and Health advised that the Council had always been swift at dealing with unauthorised encampments and he had been assured that case conferences could work quickly.

  • Ledbury to Gloucester Copy Better
    Ledbury to Gloucester Railway Ledbury to Gloucester by rail Taken from David Postle’s book of the same name and is seen through the eyes of the Driver and Fireman of the last passenger train on the branch on the 11th July 1959. The driver was Jack Folley and the fireman Jim Kavanagh. Jim checked the fire again and looked at the pressure gauge, and decided that he ought to put a little more coal on the fire. He picked up his shovel, opened the fire hole doors and placed half a dozen shovelfuls round the firebox, turned on the injector again because he knew that shortly he would be stopping at Barber’s Bridge with a minute or two in hand to gain any pressure that might be lost by putting more water into the boiler. He picked up a little hand brush and swept the coal dust from the floorboards of the cab. ‘Even when the railway was opened, no attempt was made to advertise the new service. It wasn’t until the end of August that the G.W.R. advertised a summer excursion from Cheltenham to Malvern via Newest. The line was obviously considered important by some because, in the sales particulars of property on the market at that time, the proximity to the new railway was very often stressed’ ‘Did the railway look as though it might fulfil its potential’, asked Jim. ‘Early newspaper reports were very optimistic. The first five weeks saw over 2000 passengers booked at Newest and just over half that at Dymock.’ ‘Talking in the early days,’ said Jim, ‘the guard told me at Ledbury that we have an elderly gentleman on board who travelled on the first train, and here he is, on the last one over the Branch.’ ‘Is that right? I suppose it just goes to show how short-lived this Branch has been.’ ‘Whilst on the subject of people, did I tell you about Dick Nash?’ asked Jack.

  • The Battle for May Hill’ by Marion Shoard
    ‘The Battle for May Hill’ by Marion Shoard Published in the Newsletter of the Friends of the Dymock Poets, Issue no. 59, Summer 2013 May Hill is probably the most important geographical feature for the Friends of the Dymock Poets. The poets derived their inspiration from the countryside around them. As they walked and talked together along the field paths and lanes, they constantly got their bearings from that unmistakable, reassuring upturned saucer with its fuzz of pines atop – May Hill. As Edward Thomas recalled in his essay about the Dymock country, ‘This England’: ‘Again and again we saw, instead of solid things, dark or bright, never more than half a mile off, the complete broad dome of a high hill six miles distant, a beautiful hill itself, but especially seen thus, always unexpectedly, through gaps in this narrow country, as through a window’. Several FDP walks have taken in May Hill, where members have read aloud ‘Words’, the delightful poem which Edward Thomas composed from its slopes while on a cycling trip with John Haines, the Gloucester solicitor and amateur botanist who joined the poets on many of their walks-talks. In view of this connection, when FDP member Alexander Maltby, who lives on May Hill, contacted the FDP about a plan to build a five-bedroom mansion on an isolated site on its slopes, the committee was concerned. Alas, we do not have the capacity to check every planning application, so we can deal only with selected cases. Barbara Davis and I were the first committee members to go and visit the site, and this is the submission which Jeff Cooper, our chair, sent in on behalf of the FDP to Forest of Dean District Council, which will grant or withhold planning consent.

  • Excavations at Stallards Place, Dymock, 2007
    Trans. Bristol & Gloucestershire Archaeological Society 131 (2013), 93–102 Excavations at Stallards Place, Dymock, 2007 by ANDREW SIMMONDS with contributions by PAUL BLINKHORN, PAUL BOOTH, WENDY SMITH and LENA STRID INTRODUCTION During April and May 2007 Oxford Archaeology conducted an excavation at Stallards Place, Dymock, at OS Nat. Grid SO 6986 3133 (Fig. 1). This work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting on behalf of Ten Estates and Developments, in advance of construction of new housing on land that was formerly the grounds of Stallards Place. The site comprised part of the gardens surrounding the house and a former orchard to the south. The excavation was undertaken in accordance with a condition attached to the planning permission for the development by Forest of Dean District Council. The modern village of Dymock is believed to stand at the junction of two Roman roads, where a road leading from the fort and settlement at Stretton Grandison (Herefs.) to a possible crossing of the River Severn south of Tewkesbury is joined by a possible road extending southward toward Gloucester (Catchpole 2007b, 133–4). The presence of a Roman settlement at Dymock has been recognised since at least the start of the 20th century as a result of the discovery of chance finds and structural remains throughout the village (Gethyn-Jones 1966; Leech 1981, 31) and, more recently, by more formal excavations at Winserdine and Rose Cottage (Taverner 2001), the Rectory (Simmonds 2007) and the Sewage Treatment Works (Catchpole 2007a). The settlement has been tentatively identified with the settlement ofMacatonium , which is recorded in the Ravenna Cosmography as lying on the route between Gloucester and Kenchester (Herefs.) (Gethyn-Jones 1966, 11; Rivet and Smith 1979, 361–2, 404–5).

Introduction Gloucestershire’s Local Area Agreement is now in its second year. This refreshed LAA builds on the strong foundations provided by our recently-agreed Sustainable Community Strategy, and on the priorities we set out in our first Local Area Agreement. This last year has seen partners focussing their efforts on the outcomes agreed at the beginning of April 2007. Partners have worked together to target issues ranging from reducing anti-social behaviour to promoting renewable energy installations and increasing the number of adults gaining NVQ2-level qualifications. In some areas partners have achieved national acclaim – Gloucestershire’s Warm and Well scheme has been held up as a national exemplar by DeFRA – and in all areas we have worked to join up our efforts to tackle what is important to local people. Over the coming three years partners will work to improve outcomes for children, support people back into work, improve skills for all age groups, reduce smoking, support carers, help older people to live more independent lives, tackle fuel poverty, address the causes and consequences of climate change, tackle crime and the fear of crime, and continue to make Gloucestershire a place where people want to live, work and visit.

  • Summer 2018 All Freetext Comments from Engagement Survey
    Outcome of Engagement Report – Summer 2018 All freetext comments from engagement survey respondents I think that the new community hospital should be in or near Cinderford because: It is central to the forest It is the most accessible part of the forest when there is severe weather. It is a central location within the forest, with good connections to other areas of the forest and wider Gloucestershire. It would make transferring between hospitals easier for patients. as part of my work role I cover the Forest of Dean currently based at the Dilke, on a one hour response time I can be anywhere in the Forest within this time frame based in either Coleford or Cinderford its central to North Forest - Maisemore, Corse, etc. More of a community area. This seems a better option as it is central to the forest and would be accessible to many. it would be in our locality and easiest to reach. It has good communications and is closest to my locality ITS CENTRAL TO THE WHOLE FOD CATCHMENT AREA Cinderford is a central location for residents across the FOD, when you take in locations in the Forest such as Newent, Coleford or Lydney would be too far to travel. It is in the most central location, with reasonably good public transport. If it was in Lydney this would be difficult for some people to access, especially people from Newent and surrounding areas. It is situated centrally between Lydney and Gloucester Central to the Forest. Close to area of high deprivation who may otherwise struggle to access healthcare.
