  • Mackmurdo Place, Wickham Bishops, Witham, Essex Housing English Rural Association Housing Association
    Location Mackmurdo Place, Wickham Bishops, Witham, Essex Housing English Rural Association Housing Association Partners Wickham Bishops Parish Council; Maldon District Council; Essex Rural Community Council (enabler) Scheme An innovative local needs development enabled through the rural outline exception site process. The scheme provides a mixed tenure approach using a distinctive cross-subsidy model. The overall development consists of 15 for market sale by Lynton Homes, the remaining land having been gifted to English Rural who are developing a further 12 affordable homes, including two discounted market sale homes that are being sold on a shared equity basis with local connection requirements – these are specifically targeted at older local households looking to downsize. There are two further shared ownership homes being sold on a restricted staircasing lease and eight affordable rent homes. All the affordable homes are subject to local occupancy restrictions outlined in a S.106 planning agreement. The development demonstrates what can be achieved through strategic partnerships on rural exception sites. English Rural worked with local and market partners securing a range of tenures which are designed to meet the needs of the local community, specifically older households looking to downsize who were identified as a key demographic during the enabling process. Need The development helped to meet a need for homes identified by the Rural Housing Enabler, who worked closely with the local community through the parish council to undertake a detailed housing needs assessment. Aside from the 15 homes for market sale, which meet local demand from higher income households within the wider community and district, the development comprises of 2 x two bedroom bungalows for discounted market sale, 1 x two bedroom house and 1 x two bedroom bungalow available on a shared ownership lease; 3 x two bedroom houses and 2 x two bedroom flats, 1 x one bedroom bungalow and 1 x two bedroom bungalow for affordable rent.

  • Flooding Emergency Response Plan – April 2014
    Flooding Emergency Response Plan – April 2014 Essex has experienced the longest sustained period of wet weather for many years and the County Council has released an additional £1m of emergency revenue funding to deal with highways related flooding. In mid-February 2014, each of the 12 districts in Essex were invited to put forward their top 5 flooding sites for their respective administrative areas, together with any background information. Some of the sites were already well known to Essex Highways due to regular flooding events after prolonged and heavy periods of rainfall. Other sites were not so well known and detailed investigation was therefore required at an early stage. In addition to the top flooding sites listed below, further known flooding defects have been attended to between mid-February and the end of April 2014. These have mainly consisted of blocked gullies, associated pipework and culverts. Some of these have been resolved with no further action required and some requiring a repair. The work is ongoing. A number of longer-term Capital schemes have been identified that will take longer to programme and deliver. The sites that were put forward for action were: Basildon – 6 sites A129 Southend Road, Billericay Kennel Lane, Billericay Cherrydown East, Basildon Roundacre/Cherrydown/The Gore, Billericay Outwood Common Road, Billericay A129 London Road, Billericay Braintree – 13 sites A120, Bradwell Village A131, Bulmer Church Street, Bocking Leather Lane/North Road & Highfields, Great Yeldham London Road, Black Notley B1256

Maps © and database Crown copyright & Landmark Information Group All rights reserved. May 2011. 3 4 SUMMARY. This Report presents the results of the field survey of the operating railway line between Shenfield and Southminster. A companion Report is published for the two now-discontinued railway branches from Witham to Maldon, and from Woodham Ferrers to Maldon. Fieldwork was carried out between April and August 2007. The purpose of the Survey was to detail what survives of the structures of these lines and their accompanying works including buildings, bridges, embankments, cuttings and subsiduary constructions, to review the statutory designations and to suggest possible further usage for the lines. INTRODUCTION. Much of the track line and adjacent land of the two discontinued lines is in private or corporate ownership and is publicly accessible only where it is crossed by public roads and paths. Small parts have been developed by Local Councils as “Trails” as a public amenity. There are two Nature Reserves. Where building development has been permitted on the former track, some recognition of the former alignment is still recognisable by the line of streets, footpaths and land/property boundaries.

  • The "King" Family
    23 third, sable t on a chevron between three towers, argent, as many fleur de lis, or, for Berill." The "three eagles" description is curious as inanother part of the same Visitation the number of eagles displayed is distinctly stated to be "two." Itis quite probable that the then Herald carelessly wrote the word "three" instead of "two," as all early drawings of the arms only show the two eagles. The eagles, however, sometimes are drawn with one, and sometimes with two necks, but no explanation of this variation has as yet been unearthed. An extensive Pedigree of this prominent Essex King family has been compiled, after an almost exhaustive examination of all the early records, wills,etc., of Essex County. The first ancestor of record appears to have been John Kynge of Dompnar inBurnham, Co. Essex, who died in 1490, leaving a will,and known issue, John, Richard, Thomas and Joan. John Kynge (John) of Althorne, Essex, called "John Kynge by West," probably to distinguish him from another John Kynge, (either a brother or a near relative) was an extensive land owner and died in 1524 leaving a willand known issue, William,Robert "Second sonne," John, Emme and Elynor. William Kynge (John, John) of Great Baddow, Essex, owned extensive lands inBurnham, Mayland and Althorne and died in 1570 leaving a will. He married Cicely ,and had known issue, Thomas,* Abraham, John "youngest son," and Priscilla. His son Thomas Kynge has been indentified as that Thomas Kynge of Purleigh, Essex, who died in 1588 leaving a will. By his wife Anne, he had known issue, Christopher, Edward, George and a daughter who married Thomas Hastier.

Geology, Location & Landscape Geology Fig 1A Blackwater Bridge The bedrock of Maldon District is London Clay; a silty clay deposit laid down in a warm sea some 55 million years ago, and is up to 150m deep. The geology of our area is complex, being dominated by subsequent deposits from the glaciers and rivers that have criss-crossed the region over the past 0.5 million years of the Palaeolithic period. These deposits may be found in our gardens and comprise: brickearths, glaciofluvial sands and gravels, head deposits, and alluvium. The last ice sheet stopped some tens of miles south of here - c.11,000 years ago - the start of the Mesolithic Age, before retreating back up north. Location and Landscape The western boundary of Wickham Bishops Parish roughly follows the Blackwater River (Map 1 Wickham Bishops Parish Boundary). East of the river the land rises quite steeply to a height of 77m, where the main part of the village is situated. The total area of the parish is approximately 762 hectares. There are two roads passing through the parish from Witham, which is 2.5 miles NW of the village, to Maldon which is 3 miles to the SE.
