(Distances and time approximate) Higher Barton Dating back to about 1830 but possibly older, Higher Barton was originally a pair of cottages that were then combined to form a single family home. It was bought by the current owners ten years ago and since then has been extensively refurbished and enlarged with the addition of a stunning kitchen/breakfast room well-lit by natural light that streams through contemporary glass doors and rooflights with views and access to the gardens. The combined cottages have retained many attractive architectural features including large inglenook fireplaces in each of the reception rooms and exposed ceiling and roof timbers. The refurbishments have included the creation of an elegant family bathroom and renewal of the en suite shower room to the principal bedroom. Also installed are a new large porch and contemporary oak staircase with engineered oak flooring through to the dining room. The dining and sitting rooms lie either side of the entrance hall and both have access to the large conservatory which extends along about half of the house and opens out to a large level lawn and terrace. The kitchen/breakfast room has a tiled floor and windows on two sides including bi-fold doors that can be folded back to open up the house in fine weather. The kitchen is fitted with a range of contemporary units including a large central island, granite work surfaces, larder cupboard and an electric range cooker. Beyond the kitchen are the modern boot room, laundry room and cloakroom. On the first floor landing are the principal bedroom which has an en suite shower room and windows on three sides (one incorporating a window seat) with lovely outlooks over the garden, three further bedrooms and the family bathroom. In the roof space are a further attic bedroom and a large room 5 2 2 with exposed roof timbers ideal as a home office or games room. The house has been recently been re-roofed and redecorated inside and out. 0.75 acre Coach House, Garden & Grounds Higher Barton sits with one gable end facing the Piddle River (a small steam at this point) and village lane. Surrounded on its other three sides by mature gardens and grounds that afford a high degree of privacy. The area immediately around the house is level and rises gradually behind to a mixed stand of mature broadleaf trees with open countryside beyond. Immediately in front of the cottage is a gravel parking and turning area with ample room for several cars. To one side is the coach house which has not been refurbished and incorporates a large single garage, stable (garden store) with cobbled floor and a feed store (potting room) combined with a lean-to greenhouse. Planning permission for conversion to a pair of two-storey cottages was issued in 2005 but not enacted (plans available). The formal garden adjacent to the house comprises a level lawn fringed by a pond and shrub borders with paved terracing extending out on two sides of the house. A flight of steps leads up to a further area of lawn that slopes gradually upwards. On one side is a charming Victorian flint-walled kitchen garden with fruit cage and on the other is a further length of rose-clad walling behind which is an area of wilderness/woodland. In all the garden and grounds extend to about 0.75 acre (0.3 hectare). Services Mains water & electricity. Private drainage. Oil-fired central heating.

The abstraction regime at Alton Pancras has Avaried in recent years as the licence, operating agreement and requirements for stream support have been under review. The PWS licence is currently a simple 4.5Ml/d daily licence and 890Ml annual (2.44Ml/d) licence. Historical production has varied between a maximum weekly supply of around 3.5Ml/d when water is supplied into neighbouring distribution networks to a minimum base load supply of around 1.9Ml/d needed to meet local demands. Whilst the neighbouring distribution networks can be supplied from elsewhere the local demand cannot.

Theresa Leavy of Dorset Council has asked us to share this letter with you which contains some important information about the ongoing support of vulnerable people in our communities across Dorset. With warm wishes as always, Jon at #HelpAndKindness Dear colleague Firstly, can I thank you for everything you ve been doing to help with the COVID-19 community response efforts in Dorset. Many vulnerable people of all ages may have been self-isolating for some weeks by now. We have written to around 15,000 shielded people today to let them know we re thinking of them, and to check they have everything they need to keep them healthy and happy during this time. Click here to download a copy of that letter. We know there are probably more people across the county who are not necessarily shielding but do not have the help and support they need. 2 of 4 05/05/2020, 19:02 Gmail - Fwd: Letter from Dorset Council to Residents receiving suppor... https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0?ik=3022ef754f&view=pt&search=a...

  • Piddle Valley Neighbourhood Plan 2018 to 2033
    Piddle Valley Neighbourhood Plan 2018 to 2033 As modified by the Independent Examiner November 2016 Post Examination Draft–January 2018 Produced by Piddle Valley Parish Council with the help of local residents Piddle Valley Neighbourhood Plan – 2018 to 2033 How this Plan came about Back in 2012, the idea of a Neighbourhood Plan for the Piddle Valley was discussed at the Parish Council meetings. A small working group was formed. Having done some research and looked at other examples, the group wanted to be sure that there was enough support for a Neighbourhood Plan, as it was clear that producing a plan would take a lot of community time and effort. So the group put articles in the Piddle Valley News and Views to try to explain what a Neighbourhood Plan was, and what it could achieve, and organised presentations at the school in October that year. They gave local residents the chance to vote whether or not they wanted a Neighbourhood Plan. They explained that - If nothing is done, then future planning decisions that affect the Valley will be taken by the District Council as they see fit. If the Valley has its own Neighbourhood Plan, which sets out our wishes for things we both do and do not wish to see occur, then the District Council have to take those views into account in reaching their decision. The Plan will take a lot of time and work to prepare, including further consultations, and must eventually be approved by a referendum of the Valley residents. It is important therefore for the Parish Council to know that there is support in principle for the work involved.

  • Draft Minutes of Piddle Valley Parish Council Tuesday 28 May 2019
    Draft Minutes of Piddle Valley Parish Council Tuesday 28 May 2019 Piddletrenthide Memorial Hall, 7.30pm Present: Cllrs Phillips (CHAIR), Potts, Abbott, Lock, Fear, Habgood, Howard, Sherwood, Latimer, Cox Apologies received: Cllrs Murray Democratic Period Cllr Phillips informed the meeting that vandalism has taken place at the Millennium Green. The damage will be repaired. There was no report from the Police Community Support Officer. Cllr Phillips asked if these reports were needed as they have not been happening for some time. Cllr Abbott commented that access to the information can be found on line if individuals registered at the specific web sites for home watch and farm watch, however, Police Community Support Officer attendance gave us the opportunity to feed-back concerns to the police. It isn’t possible to place these reports on our websites. It was commented that Police Community Support Officer Alison Donnison now worked part-time and couldn’t fit everything in. It was agreed that the Clerk should contact her to ask if she can provide a text message of important news, or if attendance might be arranged at some times. Dorset Councillor Haynes Cllr Phillips congratulated Cllr Haynes on her re-election. Dorset Councillor Jill Haynes attended the meeting and gave an update on the following; Structures for the new Dorset Council are almost complete for the senior management levels with all Directors and Corporate Directors posts being filled. The first Dorset Council meeting has taken place, this was at South Walks House. These meetings could take place at the Council Chamber in County Hall in the future as it would accommodate the Cllrs and public more comfortably.
