    24 NOTES ON THE FOUR BUCKINGHAMSHIRE PARISHES IN THE. ARCHDEACONRY OF ST. ALBANS [By A. J. CLEAR] In the year 1219 an agreement was come to between the Abbot of St. Albans and the Bishop of Lincoln that the Bishop should not interfere with the presen-tation or ordination to the four parishes of Abbots Aston, Horwode parva, Gnenesberge and Wynselowe, but should leave the same entirely under the charge of the Abbot. Later on several efforts were made by subsequent Bishops of Lincoln to upset this agree-ment, and finally it was carried into the Court of the King, who confirmed it. These four parishes appear to have formed part of " The Peculiar, " called the Deanery of the Arch-deaconry of St. Albans, and to have been included in the Liberty of St. Albans ( which still exists ) until 1549, or even later, as a patent of James I. speaks of " Libertatis Dei Albani in Commitatibus Hertfordiae, Buckinghamie et Bedfordiae," and although cut off from the Liberty in 1539 they were still, according to Lewis' Topographical Dictionary of 1835, in the Archdeaconry of St. Albans. Under these circumstances, for many years the record of presentation to Livings and of the proving of wills is to be found in the rolls of St. Albans Abbey (not in the Lincoln Registers), some of which are preserved in the Bodleian Library at Oxford, but un-fortunately more often than not with leaves missing at the end and the beginning. The items which have come under the writer's notice also include three presentations to Little Kimble and five to Wingrave, both of which parishes belonged to St.

Planning Applications • 20/03783/ACL Application for a Lawful Development Certificate for a proposed Detached garage/workshop Field Cottage Thornton Road This was refused before, but the applicant has resubmitted. The Parish Council has no issue with the application and it was agreed that it should be dealt with by the planners and there is no requirement for the Parish Council to comment • Updates of outstanding planning applications (included as an addendum to these minutes) John Chilver will ask for any more information, as the updates are themselves 2 months old. o It is believed Manor Farm House was advertised as sealed bids by the end of October. o It is expected that if the reduced number of industrial units is agreed, there may be further applications for development o There was a discussion regarding the likely rejection of houses being built on the land next to Teal House although the Beachampton Local Plan had suggested houses should be built there. • ‘Battery Park’. Sasha had spotted that there had been some changes to the application and is concerned that this might override the landscaping / hedge infill agreed, John will investigate o The requirement to use grey paint rather than green was queried, but Joe was able to confirm that grey blends in with the landscape better than green.

  • Aylesbury Vale North Locality Profile
    Aylesbury Vale North Locality Profile Prevention Matters Priorities The Community Links Officer (CLO) has identified a number of key Prevention Matters priorities for the locality that will form the focus of the work over the next few months. These priorities also help to determine the sort of services and projects where Prevention Matters grants can be targeted. The priorities have been identified using the data provided by the Community Practice Workers (CPW) in terms of successful referrals and unmet demand (gaps where there are no appropriate services available), consultation with district council officers, town and parish councils, other statutory and voluntary sector organisations and also through the in depth knowledge of the cohort and the locality that the CLO has gained. The CLO has also worked with the other CLOs across the county to identify some key countywide priorities which affect all localities. Countywide Priorities Befriending Community Transport Aylesbury Vale North Priorities Affordable Day Activities Gentle Exercise Low Cost Gardening Services Dementia Services Social Gardening Men in Sheds Outreach for Carers Background data Physical Area The Aylesbury Vale North locality (AV North) is just less than 200 square miles in terms of land area (500 square kilometres).

Introduction Purpose of the document This Fact Pack document was initially produced in 2010 to help inform the town/parish council about the characteristics of their parish for the ‘community view’ consultation. This consultation was undertaken early on in the preparation of the Vale of Aylesbury Plan as part of a bottom up approach embracing localism and aiming to get local communities more involved in the planning process. The town/parish council were asked to consult with their community on the following: The level of future housing and/or employment development up to 2031, including specific types of homes, employment and other development The location, sizes and phasing of development The types of infrastructure (social, community, physical) needed to enable development, including where it should be located Any other issues relating to planning and development This Fact Pack document has also been used to support neighbourhood planning by providing evidence for the context of the neighbourhood plan, including information on housing, employment, infrastructure and the environment.
