  • Baptist History First Sermon at Somersham Baptist Church Coxe
    Baptist History http://www.baptisthistory.org.uk/basicpage.php? contents=home&page_title=Home%20Page First sermon at Somersham Baptist Church Mr Fuller, of Kettering, preached an excellent sermon at Bluntisham the preceding evening, and the next morning a very encouraging one at Somersham, from Zech. iv. 10, 'Who hath despised the day of small things ? ' The congregation was so large in the afternoon, that it was thought expedient to have the service in a close. Mr Ragsdell, of Thrapston, preached from Matt. vi. 10, ' Thy Kingdom come.' The sermon in the evening was by Mr Edmonds, of Cambridge, from Psalm Ixxiv. 21, ' Arise, God, plead thine own cause.'" Coxe Feary and the awakening in Bluntisham FROM "A CLOUD OF WITNESSES" BY MICHAEL HAYKIN IN THE EVANGELICAL TIMES ONLINE; MARCH 2002 REPRODUCED WITH PERMISSION Coxe Feary (1759-1822) sustained a long pastorate in the village of Bluntisham, about fifteen miles north of Cambridge, England. He was raised in the Church of England, but during his teens became dissatisfied with the irreligious conduct of worshippers at the parish church. He considered attending a Baptist church in a nearby village — perhaps the work at Needingworth, which had been founded in 1767. But he found the church consisted of ‘narrow-minded’ hyper-Calvinists, who pronounced ‘destruction on all who did not believe their creed’. For a while he attended a Quaker congregation in Earith, another nearby village, because their views accorded with his belief in the freedom of the human will and the saving merit of good works. CONVERSION In 1780 he read James Hervey’s Theron and Aspasio (1755), a massive defence of Calvinism.

  • 18/02025/PIP (PLANNING in PRINCIPAL) Proposal
    DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE - 17 DECEMBER 2018 Case No: 18/02025/PIP (PLANNING IN PRINCIPAL) Proposal: RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT (UP TO 4 DWELLINGS) Location: LAND ADJACENT SEATON HOUSE BLUNTISHAM ROAD COLNE Applicant: MR D FLACK AND CHAPMAN Grid Ref: 537080 275637 Date of Registration: 26.09.2018 Parish: COLNE RECOMMENDATION - APPROVE This application is referred to the Development Management Committee (DMC) in accordance with the current Scheme of Delegation as 1. It is a Departure from the Development Plan 2. Colne Parish Council's recommendation of refusal is contrary to the Officer recommendation of approval. There is also no reference to Permission in Principle (PIP) applications within the current Scheme of Delegation. The PIP procedure was recently introduced into the UK Planning System by Central Government as an alternative way of obtaining planning permission for housing led development which separates the consideration of matters of principle for proposed development from the technical detail of the development. The DMC, in consultation with the Portfolio Holder and senior HDC Planning officers have to decide how best to deal with PIP applications going forward in light of the tight timeframe introduced by Central Government (5 weeks) for dealing with this type of application. 1. DESCRIPTION OF SITE AND APPLICATION 1.1 The site measures approx. 0.33 hectares and currently comprises an agricultural field (which is Grade 2 agricultural land, on a scale of 1 – 5, where 1 is ‘excellent quality agricultural land’ and 5 is ‘very poor agricultural land’). The application site is located on land west of Bluntisham Road adjacent to the built up area of Colne.
