    Appeal Decision by Susan Doran BA Hons MIPROW an Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Decision date: 21 November 2019 Appeal Ref: FPS/G3300/14A/21 • This Appeal is made under Section 53(5) and Paragraph 4(1) of Schedule 14 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 against the decision of Somerset County Council not to make an Order under Section 53(2) of that Act. • The Application dated 1 October 2015 was refused by Somerset County Council on 31 January 2019. • The Appellant claims that the appeal route should be added to the definitive map and statement for the area as a bridleway/restricted byway/byway open to all traffic. Decision 1. The appeal is dismissed. Preliminary Matters 2. I have been directed by the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs to determine an appeal under Section 53(5) and Paragraph 4(1) of Schedule 14 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (‘the 1981 Act’). 3. I have not visited the site but I am satisfied I can make my decision without the need to do so. 4. The appeal concerns an application made by Venetia Craggs on behalf of the Sedgemoor Byways and Bridleways Association, with submissions also made by Joanna Roseff (together referred to below as ‘the Appellant’). The application was made to add a bridleway/restricted byway/byway open to all traffic running from AX1/19 on the A38 Bridgwater Road to connect with AX29/37 and AX1/20 and connect with AX13/7 on the Shipham Road, known as Callow Drove (’the appeal route’).

  • North Somerset Council Dog Control Order Consultation | Your Views
    North Somerset Council Dog Control Order Consultation | your views Introduction Throughout June we asked you what you thought of new Dog Control Order proposals. The proposals were designed to replace existing and outdated by-laws (in many cases not changing their current status) and in conjunction with the Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005. Prior to the consultation beginning, our Environmental Protection Officers met with local Town and Parish Councils to discuss what measures they would like to be suggested which is reflected in the proposals that were put forward. Areas involved Banwell, Recreation Grounds Portbury, Ponds Banwell, Scout Hut and Children’s Centre Portishead, Brampton Way Play Area Bleadon, Allotments Portishead, Marina Bleadon, Village Cross Area Redhill, Christchurch Churchyard Cleeve, King George V Playing Field Weston-super-Mare, St Georges Village Play Clevedon, Coleridge Vale Playing Fields Area Clevedon, Promenade Tickenham, Village Hall Field Felton, Vee Lane Playing Fields Weston-super-Mare, Clarence Park West Hutton, Phippen Park Weston-super-Mare, Promenade Locking, Village Allotments Winscombe, Longfield RFC Nailsea, Engine Lane Winscombe, War Memorial Recreation Ground Nailsea, Fryth Way Wrington, Glebe Field Nailsea, Greenfield Crescent Nailsea, Grove Playing Fields Your opinion In total 606 individual responses were received regarding the consultation. As each respondent could comment on more than one dog control order, there were 826 responses over all. Responses were captured through an online survey as well as through letters, emails, telephone calls, eConsult and petitions. To all that responded – thank you. Your comments will be taken into consideration when a decision is made later this year as to whether to implement the orders or make modifications.

  • Breeding Birds of the Strawberry Line (Vale of Winscombe Section)
    BREEDING BIRDS OF THE STRAWBERRY LINE (VALE OF WINSCOMBE SECTION) By Dr. Lincoln Garland Introduction The Strawberry Line, or Cheddar Valley Railway Line, is a footpath/cycleway extending for 10 miles along a dismantled railway corridor between Yatton and Cheddar in North Somerset. It is deeply cherished by neighbouring communities and I am very fortunate to have lived alongside it for the last six years. Over this time, I have become increasingly familiar with its natural seasonal rhythms, including those of its birdlife, which are the subject of this article. During the COVID-19 lockdown, I decided to make use of my permissible daily exercise to record the distribution of the breeding birds on my particular ‘patch’ of the Strawberry Line - the Vale of Winscombe section. This stretch of the Strawberry Line breaches the picturesque Mendip Hills between Sandford Station and Shute Shelve Tunnel, passing through the village of Winscombe halfway across (Figure 1). I was partly inspired into action by what I perceived to be a particularly high abundance of birdlife along the Strawberry Line in contrast with neighbouring relatively intensively managed farmland and even compared with some local Ancient woodlands, where birdsong often seems conspicuous by its absence. As a consequence of the lockdown and associated reduction in noise pollution, multiple media stories have described how the pace of life slowed for many people, who in turn became increasingly cognizant of their natural surroundings, and in particular of birdsong and the psychologically healing (biophilic) effect that nature’s soundscape can have. In telling the story of the Strawberry Line’s birdlife I hope that I can provide an added layer of interest for locals and visitors, which might also help in these difficult times deliver an enhanced dose of Vitamin N or Nature’s Fix, to borrow the biophilic terminology of Richard Louv (2017) and Florence Williams (2017) respectively.

  • The Stratford Lane Roman Road and Other Early Routes on Mendip
    Proc, Univ. Bristol Spelaeol. Soc, 1992 19 (2), 151-182 THE STRATFORD LANE ROMAN ROAD AND OTHER EARLY ROUTES ON MENDIP by R.G..I.WILLIAMS ABSTRACT The existence of the Stratford Lane Road was first suggested in 1906- Opinions have differed firstly as lo us course from Ihe Mendip hilltop into Ihe Chew Valley and secondly as to Us function. This road and some medieval mutes in the ure;i wliidi might have Roman or earlier origins are examined in detail in this paper which also queries Ihe theory that the River Chew was used to transport Roman lead. Fieldwork was aided by the study of documents dating from ihe .sixteenth century held locally and in Ihe United Stales »f America. Fresh information on some archaeological sites on Mendip is given, including newly identified round-barrows, old boundary stones, a pillow mound and Ihe boundary of a medieval warren. INTRODUCTION In all ages since the neolithic farming communities became settled there has been a need for both local communication between habitation sites and access to resources. The elaborately constructed wooden trackways, dated to the Neolithic, Bronze Age and Iron Age periods, found in the peat moors south of the Mendip Hills, suggest a planned communication system with connections to other areas. Iron Age settlement on Ihe central Mendip plateau in caves, enclosures and hill-forts is confined to the edges of the escarpment but there is a dispersed pattern of farmsteads in the surrounding valleys, There is evidence of bronze and iron working at these .sites but there was only a limited use of lead in the Iron Age.
