  • Patient Participation Group Newsletter
    Summer 2019 Edition Patient Participation Group Newsletter Your Practice (Waterfoot Medical Practice) We’re changing our name! With new GP partners coming on board at the practice we have decided it’s time for a name change. In consultation with our Patient Participation Group we decided not to stray too far from our current name of Waterfoot Group of Doctors and are opting for Waterfoot Medical Practice. Waterfoot Wildflower Meadow You may have noticed the grass around Waterfoot Medical Practice is being left to grow this summer. This is to encourage the wild flowers to grow for the benefit of the local wildlife, our patients and our staff. We will be managing this area with a yearly cut in early September. The cut grass will then be seeded with a plant called Yellow Rattle and we expect a flower filled meadow to develop over the next few years. If you would like any further information, or you would like to help with the development of the meadow, please get in touch with us at the surgery. Keeping Active Over the summer months our Doctors have been busy taking part in physical challenges, and all for a good cause. On 23rd June Dr Narayan took part in the Big NHS Walk where NHS Trust staff and the local community walked 12 miles whilst raising as much money as possible for our local hospitals. Dr Hinchliffe took on the Race for Life Pretty Muddy on 13th July to raise money for cancer research. This involved racing her way through 5km of muddy obstacles.

Article 1 of Protocol 1 The right of peaceful enjoyment of possessions and protection of property. Site This application relates to a site of approx 1.8ha in area at the head of Cowpe Brook valley. The site is occupied by a series of traditional stone-built mill buildings, with later alterations/additions and other ancillary buildings, totalling 10,300 sq m of floorspace. Besides these buildings, which vary in height up to 3-storeys, there is a 50m high chimney stack and a lodge which occupies broadly a third of the site. This complex is prominent as viewed from Cowpe Road, to which the application site has a 300m frontage on the north side, from a lane running along its west side and from the rising open land around it. From the lodge flows a watercourse which is for the most part culverted as it runs through the application site, with Mill Building B bridging over it.

  • Crawshawbooth St John
    MPCP(20)19 Annex S Church Commissioners Mission, Pastoral and Church Property Committee Closed Church of Crawshawbooth St John (Diocese of Manchester) Representations against draft Pastoral (Church Buildings Disposal) Scheme Supplementary Views of the Representors and Correspondence with the Bishop Further Views of the Representors Our correspondence with the Bishop was sent to all those who made representations about this draft scheme and we have received further comments from Keith Ingley, Caroline Hudson, Sarah Shepherd, and Mr and Mrs Allison against the draft scheme and from Mr Thompson in favour of the draft scheme, these are attached as Appendix I . We also received a further representation out of time which is attached for information. Representations Against Mr Ingley responds with some detail and attached correspondence to questions about the land ownership and the claim by him concerning damages and the repair to the churchyard wall and adjacent land. Caroline Hudson, in a series of e-mails, reiterates her concerns about the proposals. She writes that she cannot say strongly enough how shocking it is that the Church is even considering this sale and argues that this has the potential to be a PR disaster for the Church and that the Church will quite rightly be questioned as to what attention they paid to the concerns of residents and the due diligence process. Having spoken with the prospective purchaser she also writes that the purpose of the building is not decided. The Ministry of Defence may not grant the plans and even if they do the people housed will be a mix of ex-military and others who have fallen on hard times.

  • Crawshawbooth St John Combined Paper
    MPCP(20)19 Church Commissioners Mission, Pastoral and Church Property Committee Closed Church of Crawshawbooth St John (Diocese of Manchester) Representations against draft Pastoral (Church Buildings Disposal) Scheme Note by Harvey Howlett Summary (i) The Committee is invited to consider six representations concerning a draft Pastoral (Church Buildings Disposal) Scheme (four against, one in favour and a letter of comment) providing for the sale of the closed church building of Crawshawbooth St John and the annexed land in the Diocese of Manchester for residential use and for purposes ancillary thereto. The specific proposal is to provide residential accommodation for ex-armed forces personnel. (ii) The representors against objected to the proposed plans due to concerns about the impact of the proposed development on this small village, the overlooking of neighbouring properties and the specific implications of housing ex-services personnel and the likely impact on the village as a whole. In addition, one representor objected to the proposals whilst an ongoing dispute with the Diocese remained unresolved. (iii) The representor in favour, whilst looking to see more detailed plans, supported the use as an extremely positive development that would not only save and restore an important and historic building but also benefit the local community. (iv) The letter of comment, from the nearest neighbour to the churchyard, whilst not objecting to the Scheme raised questions about the proposed design and the impact on their own property. (v) The Bishop of Manchester responded to say that the Diocese wishes for the Scheme to proceed as drafted. He referred to the very difficult search for an alternative use for the building and argued that this may be the final opportunity to save this important heritage asset.

  • Crawshawbooth Friends' Meeting House
    CRAWSHAWBOOTH FRIENDS’ MEETING HOUSE (Transcript of an unsigned and undated document. Picture in Rawtenstall Museum). Crawshawbooth Meeting House stands hard by an old Pack-horse bridge over the little River Limy to which descent, right and left, two ancient moorland roads, the one from Haslingden and the other from Accrington. At the time the meeting house was built Crawshawbooth was a mere hamlet, a handful of houses occupied by people who were spinners and weavers in wool and farmers as well. For the most part their stock consisted of sheep, the wool from which they spun and carded and wove into cloth, the finished pieces being taken to the markets as Haslingden and Blackburn over the roads which climb up from the bridge to the heights above. Before there came to be a meeting house Friends in Rossendale held their meetings in their own houses. The Rossendale meeting was held in the house of Richard Ratcliffe, who was cited for having a conventicle in his house. At Halsingden Abraham Heyworth’s house was visited by ‘two bold informers’ while a meeting was being held, and James Ratcliffe, though he was not present at the meeting, was fined £20 for preaching there. Apparently there were quite a number of those meetings held in houses from one end of the Valley of Rossendale to the other. Quakerism is said to have been introduced to the district by William Dewsbury and Thomas Stubbs. Dewsbury was the first convert in Yorkshire make by George Fox and to the moment his life left him in 1688 he was amongst the most active of the early Friends.

  • Bacup and Rawtenstall Grammar School Admission Policy
    Reviewed: November 2020 Review period: Annual Bacup and Rawtenstall Grammar School Admission Policy ADMISSIONS POLICY Last reviewed: November 2020, for admission to school in September 2022. As an academy, the Academy Trust of Bacup & Rawtenstall Grammar School (BRGS) is the Admissions Authority. This admissions policy adheres to the requirements and guidelines of the Schools Admissions Code (2014). Our published admission number (PAN) is 180. As a designated Grammar School we are able to select our entire intake on the basis of high academic ability. As such, we do not have to fill all of our places if applicants have not reached the required standard within our selection procedure. The selection procedure is the entrance examination, held on site at the school. Passing the entrance examination is not a guarantee of a place due to the application of our over subscription criteria. Any pupil in his or her last year of primary school and who will have reached the age of 11 years (but not 12 years) by the 31st of August in the year of entry, is eligible to sit. Where a child does not meet these age criteria but there is a request for admission out of the normal age group parents should contact school directly to discuss the particular circumstances (School Admissions Code 2014, section 2.17). The structure of the entrance examination will be published in our entrance examination guide to parents (“The Blue Book”) by the beginning of the summer term each year. The admissions authority determines that Bacup and Rawtenstall Grammar School is established primarily for the education of children attending Rossendale schools.
