The analysis demonstrated that on service 120 there were approximately 10 single passenger journeys on average per departure in each direction (Monday to Friday) and 8 – 9 single passenger journeys on average per departure on Saturdays. On service 155, there were approximately 2 - 3 single passenger journeys on average per departure in each direction (Monday to Friday) and less than 2 single passenger journeys on average per departure on Saturdays.

  • Breedon on the Hill Stuart Galloway Version 2
    U3A WTT Breedon on the Hill Stuart Galloway Version 2 Route Summary The walk starts in the car park of Breedon Priory Garden Centre. Postcode is DE73 8AZ, which oddly takes you to a road opposite the entrance. Plenty of parking and Beth’s Kitchen on the same site has nice food at reasonable prices. (Toilets next to the café). Route Overview Category: Walking Length: 7.380 km / 4.61 mi Parking: Breedon Priory Garden Centre Date Published: 26th October 2016 Difficulty: Medium Rating: Unrated Surface: Average Refreshments: Beth's Kitchen Last Modified: 26th October 2016 Description A circular walk around Breedon that takes in the history of the area. Waypoints Breedon (52.80286; -1.40512) The name Breedon on the Hill is derived from the Celtic word bre for hill and the English word dun for hill. Hence in its current form the name combines three forms of the word hill. Briudun, an early spelling, has been traced from AD 731. Medieval Hagiography Manuscripts record four saints buried in Breedon-on-the-Hill. They are Friduricus, donor of the Mercian Royal Monastery built in Breedon during the seventh century, King Eardwulf of Northumbria, and relatively unknown Anglo-Saxon Saint Beonna of Breedon and Cotta of Breedon. In 1874, a branch of the Midland Railway was built through the eastern part of the parish and Tonge and Breedon railway station was built at Tonge. In 1980 British Railways closed the line and thereafter the track was dismantled. 1 / 11 The track bed through the parish is now part of National Cycle Route 6 and is called the Cloud Trail running from Worthington to Derby City Centre.

  • Coalville Times – February 1914
    Coalville Times At War Friday February 4th 1916 (Issue 1248) Page 1 HUGGLESCOTE PATRIOTIC SOCIAL A patriotic whist drive and dance at the Hawley Institute on Wednesday night was well attended. Mr J. Cooper, of Coalville, played for dancing, and Miss Edith Bott, of Coalville, was much applauded for her songs. Messrs. Wright-Mason (Ellistown) and J. H. Dean (Hugglescote) were the M.C.’s. The M.C.s for whist were Messrs. E. Darby and D. S. Moore, and the excellent prizes were won respectively by the following: Ladies: Miss Aust 181, Miss E. Wright 174, and Mrs L. Smith 172. Gentlemen: Mr A. Pegg 175, Mr G. Geary 171, and Private Wildgoose 170. The proceeds were for the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Comforts Guild. Page 2 FURTHER EXAMINATION FOR ARMLET MEN BEFORE FINAL EXEMPTION Mr Thomas asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he was aware that local recruiting officers are summoning men who have been previously rejected under Lord Derby’s scheme to submit to further medical examination, and whether, having regard to the fact that these men hold a white certificate which states that they presented themselves to join the army, but were not accepted on medical information, they will be exempt under the Military Services Act? Mr Tennant, in a written answer in the Parliamentary papers, says, “In view of the many decisions which had to be hurriedly reached and the desirability for greater uniformity, a fresh medical examination will be necessary.” Page 4 DO YOU KNOW THAT An aeroplane passed over Coalville at a rather low altitude on Saturday,

    Newbold Verdon Neighbourhood Plan Appendix 2 Consultation Statement Please Note All numbered references in this statement can be accessed at the Newbold Verdon Parish Council website. https://www.newboldverdonparishcouncil.org.uk/community/neighbourhood-plan/communications-group/ Newbold Verdon Neighbourhood Plan Consultation Statement Introduction This Consultation Statement has been prepared to fulfil the legal obligations of the Neighbourhood Planning Regulations 2012. Section 15(2) of Part 5 of the Regulations sets out what a Consultation Statement should: a) contain details of the persons and bodies who were consulted about the proposed neighbourhood development plan b) explains how they were consulted c) summarises the main issues and concerns raised by the persons consulted d) describes how these issues and concerns have been considered and, where relevant, addressed in the proposed Neighbourhood Plan. Aims of consulting on the Plan The aim of the Newbold Verdon Neighbourhood Plan engagement process was to: • Inform parishioners, local businesses and other stakeholders about the neighbourhood plan and the process by which it is achieved, and to invite them to participate so that their opinions informed the Plan; • Engage with relevant groups at critical times in the process, using a variety of ways that would help provide timely contributions to the evidence base upon which policies would be created; • Communicate regularly with parishioners on where we were in the process and how they might be able to become involved.

  • Traffic Regulation Order
    357 Agenda Item 13 CABINET – 14 SEPTEMBER 2018 BEVERIDGE LANE, ELLISTOWN – SPEED LIMIT REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF ENVIRONMENT AND TRANSPORT PART A Purpose of the Report 1. The purpose of this report is to seek approval for the implementation of a developer-funded Traffic Regulation Order (TRO), planning application number 16/00099FULM, as part of the newly built Amazon site off Beveridge Lane, Ellistown (North West Leicestershire). The effect of the TRO would be to maintain the existing national speed limit of 60mph. Recommendation 2. It is recommended that the Traffic Regulation Order associated with the Beveridge Lane, Ellistown development, as shown on drawing no.TM4445 appended to this report, be approved for implementation. Reason for Recommendation 3. The introduction of street lighting along a road will normally make it subject to a 30 mph speed limit but in this instance it is considered that it would be more appropriate to retain the national 60 mph speed limit. In such circumstances it is necessary to make a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) to de-restrict the route. 4. TROs are usually determined by the Director of Environment and Transport but in this case the local member does not support the proposal so it has been referred to the Cabinet. Timetable for Decisions (including Scrutiny) 5. Subject to the Cabinet’s approval, the making and implementation of the TRO will be made on 22nd October 2018 as all works on-site are complete. Policy Framework and Previous Decisions 6. The scheme contributes to the delivery of Local Transport Plan 3 (LTP3) and the priorities of safety and quality of life.

    WEST BRIDGFORD V ELLISTOWN AND IBSTOCK 21st January 2017 Regatta way 3.00pm EAST MIDLANDS COUNTIES LEAGUE 2016/17 SEASON WBFC OFFICIAL MATCH DAY PROGRAMME WWW.westbridgfordfc.com www.pitchero.com/clubs/westbridgfordfootballclub Dunkirk 2-1 West Bridgford Meadow Covert Public House are Match Report Written By West Bridgford's John Burns It wasn't quite ' we'll fight them on the beaches ' as Winston Churchill famously delighted to be supporting West said as West Bridgford started the game fairly brightly. The first ten minutes saw former Dunkirk full back Ross McCaughey shoot just wide and Tim Hopkinson Bridgford FC. create a good early chance for himself. The home side under the new management team of Craig Clark and Dave Robinson and supported by the ex- perienced Jimmy Albans soon took control though on a heavy playing surface.The Bridgford players reminded me of an old Brenda Lee song ' slipping and sliding' as players seemed to struggle on the boggy surface. The youthful Dunkirk team began to dominate the game and it came as no surprise when Oliver Clark tapped home via the post in the 14th minute for a Dunkirk lead. 1-0 (Dunkirk) Dunkirk captain Tom Maddison and Oliver Clark were controlling the game from midfield allowing wingers Ben Fairclough, on loan from Lincoln United, and Ben Gowing licence to get forward giving the Bridgford full backs of Erentz and McCaughey a torrid time - thankfully for the visitors Martin Kearney made two excellent saves. In the 28th minute though the home side deservedly doubled their lead - Oliver Clark was left completely unmarked from a Ben Gowing corner to stab the ball home, his second of the game.
