Most land covered by SSSI allows sufficient protection for wildlife. Make certain conservation is done properly, over the last few years there has been too much emphasis on preserving trees, many of which have grown in the last 20-30 years while sheep were not regularly grazing and controlling seedlings. This has resulted in a huge change in the character of the hills, especially the eastern side. The second question is impossible to answer, conflicts should be resolvable. In the event of no resolution a decision must be made on the merits of each case. This is a weighted question in the survey.

  • A “Redmarley Gallimaufrey”
    A “Redmarley Gallimaufrey” [O.E.D. “Gallimaufrey” - a heterogeneous mixture, a jumble, a medley. Shakespeare - “They have a kind of dance which the wenches say is a gallimaufry of gambols” - The Winter’s Tale, IV iii (cf. French “galimafrée” - a‘nonsense’, a ‘hotch-potch’ stew - Rabelais)] “Murder most foul” (Hamlet V.iv). In the 1790’s a certain Thomas Goode owned a (now demolished) house called ‘Alfords’ near The Lottery. On his death the property was to pass to his nephews Richard and John Lane. They could not wait for his natural death (he was only in his 30’s and with a young family) so they murdered him by shooting him in a field near “the Chapel” (farm?) in October 1799. Owen, the village constable, pursued them and arrested them in Bristol. After the trial at Worcester Assizes they were hanged at ‘Gallow’s Brook’ in the north of the parish on 10th March 1800. Details of the Goode family, including the burial of the unfortunate Thomas, are in the Parish Registers. “Jolly boating weather” (“Eton Boating Song”) In 1789 Richard Hall, surveyor for the “Gentlemen Promoters” of the Hereford and Gloucester Canal Company proposed a route (and made a few exploratory ‘digs’) from “Haw Passage” (Haw Bridge did not then exist) via Tirley, Corse, Eldersfield, Redmarley* and Dymock - thence onward to Ledbury and Hereford. [*A contemporary map in D. Bick “The Hereford and Gloucester Canal” (1994) shows that the “canal” was planned to pass north of the village near Bury Court.] A year later Hall surveyed an alternative route from Over via Rudford and Highleadon.
