  • AVDC Sub Groups Local Lettings Policy
    AVDC local lettings policy Scheme details Development/Estate name Any general need housing to which AVDC has nomination rights (excluding Rural Exception Schemes). RSL Any Local Lettings Policy – 15 May 2014 Commencement Date End Date To be reviewed in May 2015 Total number of properties in N/a estate/development Number of properties subject to proposed 50% of new build properties Local Lettings Policy 25% of re let properties Property type and number of beds and Nos. of Supported Rented Intermediate persons units Housing General need, re-let properties 25% of N/a Y N total General need, new build properties 50% of N/a Y N total Justification for local lettings policy Choice based lettings means that qualifying applicants are able to choose to express interest in any properties which become available and are the appropriate size and match their needs. Applicants who express interest in properties are then prioritised by their level of housing need (Bands A- D) and then how long they have been on the Housing Register. No consideration has previously been given to where in the District the applicant is from or where the property is located. Following previous direction from Members at Environment and Living Scrutiny Committee officers developed a scheme which was subsequently approved at cabinet and council. This scheme divides Aylesbury Vale into four ‘sub groups’ and allows some extra preference to be given to applicants with a connection to their local community. For the purposes of this local lettings policy, Aylesbury Vale is split into four groups, (Greater Aylesbury, North, South West and South East) which are broadly consistent with current LAF (local area forum) areas.

  • Roman Buckinghamshire- Draft R J Zeepvat & D Radford
    Roman Buckinghamshire- Draft R J Zeepvat & D Radford Nature of the Evidence Base Most of the written record for Roman Buckinghamshire has either been published in the county journal, Records of Buckinghamshire , or in the Buckinghamshire Archaeological Society Monograph Series , which contains reports on the work of the Milton Keynes Archaeology Unit. More recent, post-1991 PPG16-related work is summarised in South Midlands Archaeology , and also in Records . More detailed reports on the latter resides as grey literature within the County SMR, alongside a wealth of unpublished fieldwalking data and miscellaneous small-scale works undertaken by the former county unit and various local societies. Buckinghamshire does not present itself as a logical unit of study for this period, so the absence of countywide studies of Roman archaeology is not surprising. The most readily accessible summary of the county’s Roman archaeology is to be found in The Buckinghamshire Landscape (Reed 1979, 42-52). A number of more localised studies deal with more topographically coherent areas; The Chilterns (Branigan 1967; Branigan 1971a; Branigan 1973a; Branigan and Niblett 2003; Hepple and Doggett 1994) the Ouse valley (Green 1956; Zeepvat 1987; Dawson 2000), the Chess valley (Branigan 1967) and the Milton Keynes area (Zeepvat 1991a & 1991b; Zeepvat 1993b). The civitas Catuvellaunorum , the Roman administrative unit that includes the present county of Buckinghamshire, has been described by Branigan (1987). Buckinghamshire’s more readily identifiable Roman sites attracted a number of 19 th and early 20 th -century investigations. Several substantial Roman villas, such as Tingewick (Roundell 1862) and Yewden villa, Hambledon (Cocks 1921), were excavated during this period.

Broad of the North East London Polytechnic and Dr D. R. Mills of the Open University whose lectures on Bucks village society at Stowe School in April 1982 proved immensely illuminating. None of the above, of course, bear any responsibility for any errors of interpretation on my part.

  • BUCKINGHAMSHIRE POTS, POTTERS and POTTERIES, C.1200–1910 by MICHAEL FARLEY and BARBARA HURMAN Offprinted from RECORDS of BUCKS
    BUCKINGHAMSHIRE POTS, POTTERS AND POTTERIES, C.1200–1910 BY MICHAEL FARLEY AND BARBARA HURMAN Offprinted from RECORDS OF BUCKS Vol. 55 2015 BUCKINGHAMSHIRE POTS, POTTERS AND POTTERIES, c.1200–1910 MICHAEL FARLEY AND BARBARA HURMAN An attempt is made to list Buckinghamshire’s pottery production sites and potters from the thirteenth century until c.1910 and to give a short description of their products where known. The information is derived from confirmed kiln sites, from surface finds of ‘waster’ material which indicate production, and from a range of documentary sources including field names. There remains considerable scope for further local research; a number of suspected production sites have not yet been located on the ground and further local study would certainly identify other potters and link named potters to specific locations. Several features have emerged from the study. Firstly, a number of production sites are known to have been active in recent centuries, but for which there is no earlier record. It is suspected that some of these may have had earlier undocumented activity. Secondly, and perhaps unsurprisingly, many pottery centres were located on agriculturally marginal land. Thirdly, several of the pottery families followed their trade over generations and this is likely to have been the case long before documentation becomes available. Finally, the number of ‘pot hawkers’ recorded, particularly in the mid-nineteenth century, is surprising as it almost equals the number of working potters; their role in distributing the wares of country potteries may have been underestimated in the past. quently exposed, for example by being ploughed up, I NTRODUCT ION weathering of their relatively soft and open fabric Until shortly before the Roman conquest all pottery may leave little trace of them.
