  • Gordon Richard Sydney Haines War Time Memories I
    Gordon Richard Sydney Haines war time memories I was born in Almondsbury Hospital South Gloucestershire on 23 December, 1932. My parents Florence Mabel HAINES and Sydney George HAINES then lived at Box Tree Cottage in the Village of Alveston, Gloucestershire with my sister Jean, two years older than me and my Grandfather, William Ballinger, Mum’s father. Life at home was pleasant; the village was then small and uncomplicated. An outside bucket toilet, no running water, we had our own well with a small pump, no electricity, we used oil lamps and had a coal-burning indoor stove which also provided hot water for the Saturday night bath ! We grew all our own vegetables and had apple and plum trees, raspberry and gooseberry bushes for all our fruit. The fields around provided us with blackberries and mushrooms and there was a small forest named Wolfridge, where the housing estates now exist, providing firewood and adventures for the village boys. My primary education was at the Church of England Elementary School at Rudgeway a mile away over the fields from Alveston but aged 10 I transferred to Thornbury Council School where I took the examination for entry to Thornbury Grammar School on a local council scholarship, at age 11 in 1943 and in September that year began my secondary education. My sister Jean was also studying there. My earliest recollection of doing something as a family was the requirement at the outbreak of war in 1939 for everyone to register at the local council office (opposite the Cross Hands Hotel !) to be fitted for Gas Masks.

  • South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group
    COUNCIL SIZE SUBMISSION South Gloucestershire South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group. February 2017 Overview of South Gloucestershire 1. South Gloucestershire is an affluent unitary authority on the North and East fringe of Bristol. South Gloucestershire Council (SGC) was formed in 1996 following the dissolution of Avon County Council and the merger of Northavon District and Kingswood Borough Councils. 2. South Gloucestershire has around 274,700 residents, 62% of which live in the immediate urban fringes of Bristol in areas including Kingswood, Filton, Staple Hill, Downend, Warmley and Bradley Stoke. 18% live in the market towns of Thornbury, Yate, and Chipping Sodbury. The remaining 20% live in rural Gloucestershire villages such as Marshfield, Pucklechurch, Hawkesbury Upton, Oldbury‐ on‐Severn, Alveston, and Charfield. 3. South Gloucestershire has lower than average unemployment (3.3% against an England average of 4.8% as of 2016), earns above average wages (average weekly full time wage of £574.20 against England average of £544.70), and has above average house prices (£235,000 against England average of £218,000)1. Deprivation 4. Despite high employment and economic outputs, there are pockets of deprivation in South Gloucestershire. Some communities suffer from low income, unemployment, social isolation, poor housing, low educational achievement, degraded environment, access to health services, or higher levels of crime than other neighbourhoods. These forms of deprivation are often linked and the relationship between them is so strong that we have identified 5 Priority Neighbourhoods which are categorised by the national Indices of Deprivation as amongst the 20% most deprived neighbourhoods in England and Wales. These are Cadbury Heath, Kingswood, Patchway, Staple Hill, and west and south Yate/Dodington.

  • Old Sodbury Times
    Old Sodbury Times Issue 85 November 2020 Dates for your Diary: Post Office returns to Chipping Sodbury None due to Covid Restrictions After much campaigning we are pleased to see the presence of a Post Office back in Chipping Sodbury. OK it’s only there on Tuesday afternoon, 13.30 to 15.30hrs in the back of a van, but it’s a start. Eventually it is hoped to be in the back of the old M & Co building when it is converted to a Spar. How ironic it is that when Old Sodbury lost its Post Office we were told ‘there is another only a mile away in Chipping Sodbury’. ————— On behalf of Green Community Travel, Michaela Turner would like to thank everyone who donated their unwanted clothes etc. to the recent Bag2School initiative. A total of £357.00 was raised. ————- Chapel Lane is soon to have a consultation about having a 20mph speed limit in the section between Landcare and the main road. Do please take part in the consultation. South Glos Council have asked the Town Trust, who manage The Ridings recreation area at Chipping Sodbury, about the possibility of putting a Covid Testing Station there Monday to Friday each week. At the October meeting of Sodbury Town Council (held on Zoom) members heard of the proposal to build 16 ‘starter homes’ on the former Transport Yard (former home to Rex Boucher’s repair yard) on the A432 just down from the old post office. Also discussed was a report by Councillor Steve Spooner on traffic speeds along that road.

  • May2012-April2013
    834 MINUTES OF IRON ACTON PARISH COUNCIL ANNUAL MEETING Monday 21st May 2012 The Annual Meeting of Iron Acton Parish Council was held in the Marshall Rooms commencing at 7.30pm. Present: - Councillor Sheppard (Chairman), Councillor Bellis (Vice Chairman), Councillor Heal, Councillor. Huish, Councillor Lomas, Councillor Blanchard, Councillor Taylor, Mrs. Roylance (taking Minutes) and Mrs. Beal (Clerk). At the beginning of the meeting it was resolved that Mrs Roylance take the Minutes. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION Three members of the public were present. Mr. Chris Wright addressed the Parish Councillors in connection with the quote for a base line survey for all the trees in the Parish Council’s care (excluding Chillwood). The quote covered two different levels of survey, plotting of each tree and tagging or a hazard assessment, the former being the most comprehensive. Mr. Wright stated that Chillwood is a separate issue and a management plan will be required to take any action forward. Councillor Taylor requested this should be an agenda item for the next meeting. Mrs. Geraldine Whittle enquired as to how the new Clerk’s hours would be allocated with regard to people wishing to contact her. She was advised that the principle was that periods when the public could expect a response would be agreed between the Parish Council and the Clerk and then made public, the example being that for the previous Clerk this has been Mon, Weds & Fri from 0930-1300. It was requested that at the next meeting the provision of a dedicated phone number and answer phone for the Clerk would be discussed.
