This involves wider pavements, more space for cyclists and a number of traffic changes such as one way systems. In future, it is intended to consider whether similar changes might be helpful for market towns. At the moment, the Stratford scheme incorporates industrial barriers and fencing that seems quite inappropriate for heritage towns. I hope that further changes for Stratford and elsewhere will evolve into something more suitable. Presently, we are awaiting further news from government surrounding the reopening of areas such as pubs and restaurants. There are three recovery groups being set up by the District Council to address the challenges of the post-covid world: ‘Economic Recovery’, ‘Community’ and ‘Council Recovery’ Groups. The first meeting of the ‘Council Recovery’ Group has been held and work will concentrate on the financial consequences to the Council from Covid, a revised budget and longer-term issues for the Council, such as remote meetings and maximising homeworking. The other groups are being convened at the time of writing. Following the first full Council meeting (held remotely with reduced numbers), which agreed a protocol for remote meetings, and the first (remote) scrutiny committee, a calendar of meetings has been re- established. For the foreseeable future, all of these meetings will be held by video conferencing, as gatherings of more than 2 people indoors are still prohibited. The first Planning meeting is now scheduled for 17 June. As these meetings routinely involve a significant degree of public participation, initially there will be a restricted number of cases coming 4 before the planning committees, although in fact there is something of a backlog to be processed in coming weeks. I am told the latest figures of laboratory-confirmed cases in Stratford District show that we have 369, which indicates that the Covid infection rate has stabilised in our area. New cases are being reported in low single figures each week. There is no cause for complacency though, with the UK being the worst-affected country in Europe. One of the meetings that was held was to progress the Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPD) for the Climate Emergency. Among other things, this document aims to enable better influence in planning for low carbon energy and environmental measures. Some of these controls were lost as a result of central government action in 2015, for example, preventing Stratford applying a 10% renewables rule in new developments. This was a policy I was instrumental in bringing into being many years ago and there is now hope that something like it can be reintroduced. Nigel Rock, Councillor for Napton and Fenny Compton Ward [email protected], 07971 343065 * * * * * * * * RESTRICTED RE-OPENING OF RECYCLING CENTRES IN WARWICKSHIRE: You can now book appointments to visit the six larger Warwickshire Household Waste Recycling Centres. The slots are only for essential visits, with one visit per fortnight. The Shipston, Stockton and Wellesbourne sites will remain closed. See the WCC website https://www.warwickshire.gov.uk/recyclingcentres for up to date information and to book appointments. 5 The Priors Education Trust (PET) is a registered Charity formed to enhance education for the public benefit with The Priors School (Reception to Year 6) named as specific beneficiary. As you will be aware, both the Priors Nursery and the Fops Shop were ordered to close under the COVID-19 restrictions from the 23rd March 2020. PET are please to advise that The Priors Nursery re-opened on 15th June, with strict social distancing and a limited numbers policy in place. We are very grateful to Mrs Ingrid Spencer and Mr Ricky Emms for their hard work in ensuring that the Nursery was prepared and new procedures put in place, to ensure we opened the Nursery safely and in line with government guidelines. Meantime, behind the scenes, work is well underway to allow PET to hand over the running of the Nursery back to the Priors School. As you may know, PET began to run the Priors Nursery back in 2011, when the Priors School became one of the first schools to attain ‘Free School’ status and under the then rules, was not allowed to operate the Nursery. Following a change in the regulations, this has now changed and we are hopeful that the necessary documentation will be completed in time for the Nursery to be incorporated within the Priors School from September 2020. Although many shops have opened from 15th June, unfortunately, due to the nature of the premises, it seems unlikely that we will be able to re- open the FOPS shop to comply with safety and social distancing measures for the time being. So, sadly for now, we will be unable to take your donations. We will let you know if this position changes through the village email system and social media. 6 On a lighter note, we are delighted that we were able to give Con Conlan his winnings from the 100 club having tried to track him down since 2016! The family visited the village recently and we contacted them with the good news and could, at last, pay out the £100 that he won in December 2016 and the £100 in December 2019. Having been out of touch, he was both amazed that he’d won and surprised that we’d held the money for him for so long - needless to say, he continues to contribute to the 100 club every month! If you would like to join the 100 club, you might be lucky and win a cash prize! It costs £10 per month by direct debit, there are regular prize draws at the ‘Diners Club’ and all winnings are tax-free. If you would like more information, or to join the 100 Club, please contact any of the Trustees listed below. The 100 club is usually drawn at our monthly ‘Diners Club’ at the Butchers Arms and we are hopeful that this will be resurrected in the not too distant future, once restaurants are able to re-open. We will advise of the next event through the village email system and social media. Meantime, the summer is upon us and we hope you all keep well and safe through the coming months - see you in September!!

  • German Prisoners of War on Lowes Lane
    Great War in the Villages Project The Great Escape from Wellesbourne – German Prisoners of War on Lowes Lane In 1917 The War Agricultural committee saw the need to turn barren tracts of land into cultivated areas with Prisoners of War providing the labour. And so, in August of that year, the first German P. O.Ws arrived in the Stratford upon Avon area, to clear some land at Mr. Lane’s Farm, Little Drayton. With most of the young men from the surrounding area still at the Front and the appeals for girls to join the Land Army paying little dividends, additional farm labour was needed in the Wellesbourne parishes. Holly Lodge in Lowes Lane , Wellesbourne Mountford was at the time a large house incorporating a stable block which the military requisitioned in 1918. With some additional work from the local builder, Owen England, the Lodge was now ready for its first intake of German Prisoners. It was late, about 9.30 p.m. on Saturday the 15 th June 1918 when the first contingent arrived to a reception committee of curious villagers. A Lieutenant Kelly, accompanied by several guards, escorted them on the last leg of their journey from Ettington Station to Holly Lodge. The early indications were that their work was good and that they were performing satisfactorily. The Holly Lodge camp was under the control of its ‘parent camp’ and the country’s largest, Poundbury, Dorchester. The welfare of the prisoners was paramount and they were paid for their labours. In preparation for the yearly harvest, a further 30 non commissioned officers arrived in Wellesbourne three weeks later from Dorchester.

Appendix 33 Draft: 7.1 Page 2 1.0 INTRODUCTION Priors Marston lies to the east of Warwickshire, adjacent to the Northamptonshire and Oxfordshire borders. With a population approaching 600, it is a rural community that enjoys a largely unspoilt environment. For a parish of our size we enjoy good facilities. These include a Parish Church, a Primary School, a Village Hall with a part-time Post Office and sports facilities including football and cricket pitches and two hard tennis courts. In 2005, a Parish Plan was adopted, copies of which can be found on the village website at www.priorsmarston.org and in autumn 2017 it was agreed that it needed to be updated. Following a well-attended Parish meeting, a detailed Parish Survey was conducted early in 2018 and the full report of the survey is available on the village website. The results of the survey form the backbone of this plan and a summary of actions can be found at the back of this document.

  • Hopkins Family Draft 12Pt
    Great War in the Villages Project The Hopkins Brothers. The Hopkins family had lived in the village of Wellesbourne from at least the 16th century, their name appearing on the first page of the parish records which commenced in 1560. The family were ostensibly farmers but it was Abram (Abraham) Hopkins, born in1802 that was last of his line to work the land. The Census of 1841 records that he worked Waterloo Farm, located where the airfield is currently situated. It is believed that he had to sell the farm to pay off a mortgage. Abraham’s eldest son, Richard became an apprentice to John Cottrill, a master butcher of High Street, Stratford upon Avoni and subsequently opened his own butchers shop in what is now 35, Warwick Road, Wellesbourneii. Around the same time Richard’s younger brother Edward worked as a slaughterman for Mr. John Humphries, a Butcher in Evesham. When Richard died prematurely in 1869, as had his wife Maria two years earlier, Edward took over not only his business, but also the care of his brother’s children. Edward was 43 when, on the 12th October 1881, he married Emma Day aged 28 from Stretton under Fosse, Warwickshire, at Bordesley Holy Trinity Church. They produced seven children of which George and Mary Ellen died in infancy. The family business appears to have been successful. Edward was able to employ servants and after completing their formal education sent his sons to the Leamington Spa Municipal School, later to become Leamington Spa (Grammar) school for boys. Sons Robert and William both became Butchers and joined their fathers business.

  • Vicar St Peter's Church, Wellesbourne with St James
    VICAR ST PETER’S CHURCH, WELLESBOURNE WITH ST JAMES, WALTON D’EIVILE PARISH PROFILES Wellesbourne Walton Page 1 of 28 BISHOP’S INTRODUCTION Welcome to this Profile of these parishes set in the heart of England. The new incumbent will have the chance to build on the excellent ministry of the previous vicar who, working with a great team of clergy and lay colleagues, built up the life of St Peter’s Wellesbourne and also developed an imaginative ministry at St James’s Walton. They are the sort of parishes where the vicar can play a leading role in the community and build all sorts of connections to grow the life of the Church and increase its impact on the wider community. St Peter’s has a wonderful combination of fairly traditional – though enlivened – worship and all sorts of creative ways to engage people. It’s showing some impressive levels of health and a real determination to address others that need more attention.
