Thank you for updating the Environment Agency on the various proposed [draft] planning conditions and ‘heads of terms’ arrangements for the protection, maintenance and management of the proposed on-site secondary flood defences. Below we advise on the proposed conditions and close some outstanding advice on groundwater protection, environment management, water resources protection and water voles. These were in abeyance pending resolution of flood risk management and water quality matters that the Environment Agency regards as resolved, subject to the conditions listed below. We are aware that post-committee, should it be minded to approve the application, legal agreements and some tweaks to conditions may be necessary to ensure that the two are compatible and effective. We will be happy to advise as requested. Environment Agency position: Flood risk management Further to our previous letter dated 23 December 2020, the Environment Agency has now considered the ‘Appendix G - Heads of Terms Summary’ as received 14 January 2021 as an outline means of maintaining the flood defences.

  • JIMMY GOODFIELD - an OBITUARY James Goodfield Was Born on February 22Nd 1921 at Gamlingay Where His Father Was a Farm Stockman
    THE ELSWORTH CHRONICLE Issue No. 4 May 1992 THE ELSWORTH CHRONICLE The centre pages of this edition consist of a questionnaire which the Parish Council ask you to complete so that an informed view of the wishes of the villagers is known. Hopefully it will be found self-explanatory and straight forward but should there be queries do not hesitate to telephone the editor, Alan Farrow, on Elsworth 472 or any other member of the Council Liaison Committee. JIMMY GOODFIELD - AN OBITUARY James Goodfield was born on February 22nd 1921 at Gamlingay where his father was a farm stockman. In 1934, when Jimmy was thirteen years of age, the family moved to a cottage on Pitt Dene Farm when his father became stockman for Mr. Fairbanks. Jimmy finished his schooling in the Church of England School in Brook Street, after which he also worked on the land at Pitt Dene Farm for four years. At eighteen Jimmy was called-up for National Service and joined the Cambridgeshire Regiment. Following the outbreak of war he served in Scotland and later Singapore, where he was taken prisoner by the Japanese. He was to remain in their hands for tour years, during which time he was forced to help build the notorious Burma railway which was to transport arms and ammunition for the Japanese troops. It was there that thousands of his fellow prisoners perished. On his return home, Jimmy weighed barely six stones. He talked of having to conceal small amounts of rice grains in his shoes, when he had any to wear, to fend off starvation.

  • The Six Villages Newsletter
    THE SIX VILLAGES NEWSLETTER MARCH 2018 FROM REVD NIGEL DI CASTIGLIONE: Giving up or giving out? When I was a curate a parishioner told me on Ash b e in sp ir e d Wednesday ‘I’m giving up church for with Lent!’ I was so surprised I said Sl imming nothing. She did stay away from church World for the next 5 weeks but, thankfully she was back at Easter. Many of us have a TUESDAYS rather negative view of Lent. We try to Papworth Everard give up chocolate, drinking alcohol, Village Hall watching TV or whatever and try to 5.30 & 7.30pm feel virtuous for having done so. If Vicky: 07935795425 that is your current challenge don’t let me discourage you; Everyone is welcome! but for others – Real support, real food, real success! reading this in the middle of Lent – why don’t we think of taking something on slimmingworld.co.uk instead? 0344 897 8000 The Bible tells us the first Lent was when Jesus took on consciously following the leading and prompting of the Holy Spirit. Many of us might ask ”What does that look like?” One of the best descriptions I know is from a fellow church leader who speaks of us ‘taking note of the whispers of God’. I remember – may be 20+ years ago – thinking to myself I really must pop in and see Jack … then deciding I was too busy that day so no I would do that tomorrow. The following morning the phone rang – it was a Funeral Director to say: ‘Jack died during the night; will you take his funeral?’ I had heard the whisper of God but dismissed it as something no more than a random thought and could wait.
