  • The Douglass Family of Chertsey and Egham, Surrey
    The Douglass family of Chertsey and Egham, Surrey. Our Douglas ancestors were the forebears of Elizabeth Ellen Douglas who was born in 1864. Her father, James Douglas (born 1837), was the fourth successive “James” in the family. It is often assumed that with the name “Douglas” the family must have come from Scotland and this may be true? However the first recorded James in this family was born about 1733 and was living and working in Chertsey, Surrey as a watch and clockmaker between 1769 and 1791. His father was John Douglass, though his origins and birth are not recorded. The surname was, at that time, spelled Douglass. Many of the watches and clocks which came from the workshop of James Douglass, in the late eighteenth century, were evidently very fine timepieces and some are still in existence and available through antique sales today. He appears to have been declared bankrupt in 1791 and he died in 1805 in Chertsey. His wife was Letitia Joyce, who was born about 1733 – the fourth child, of nine, in the family of Joshua Joyce (a baker) and his wife Elizabeth Chitty of Godalming in Surrey. Joshua Joyce was born about 1699 and was the son of another Joshua (born 1664). His christening evidently took place in Godalming, his parents being recorded as Joshua and Mary. The older Joshua is remarkable in genealogical terms as the names of his parents, grandparents and great grandparents are all documented. His wife was Mary Chitty. The Joyce family can be traced back to Henry Joyce who was born around 1560 and was a cardmaker in Godalming.

  • Runnymede Borough Council, Civic Centre, Station Road, Addlestone
    The Planning Inspectorate National Infrastructure Planning Temple Quay House 2 The Square Bristol BS1 6PN Emailed to: [email protected] FAO Mr Hefin Jones 25 July 2019 Dear Sir/Madam Location: Southampton to London Pipeline Project Proposal: Notification from Esso of acceptance of their DCO application (by the Planning Inspectorate) and deadline for registering as a Interested Party Following the Planning Inspectorate’s acceptance of an application for a Development Consent Order (DCO) for the Southampton to London Pipeline, Runnymede Borough Council requests to be registered as an Interested Party at the Examination. Runnymede Borough Council (RBC) is a host Borough and also landowner affected by the development. Chertsey Meads, a public open space owned by the Council is a key parcel of land required to be used to enable the pipeline to go under the River Thames. Runnymede Borough Council is not a unitary authority and therefore a number of matters, such as Highways, Transport and Archaeology fall within the remit of Surrey County Council (SCC). Esso’s discussions with SCC have not been shared with RBC and therefore RBC are now making enquiries as to SCC’s position. This letter provides a summary of the main aspects of the proposal which RBC is presently in a position to confirm that it agrees and/or disagrees, together with an appropriate explanation, in accordance with the Planning Inspectorate Advice Note 8.3. The response below is an initial response as the Council is currently reviewing the detailed documentation submitted with the DCO application and therefore the Council reserves the right to make further written representations during the examination should it be required.

  • Longcross Studios Drainage & Services, Chertsey
    CASE STUDY Date: 2020 Works: Drainage and Major Services Relocation Sector: Redevelopment Longcross Studios Drainage & Services, Chertsey OVERVIEW: Lawson Group was awarded the title of principal contractor for this prestigious project located near Chertsey, approximately 25 miles west of London. It involved the removal of specific buildings, and a drainage and services package within the site. Set in over 200 acres, the area first started life as a Ministry of Defence site. In its MoD days, the site was run as the Military Vehicles and Engineering Establishment (MVEE), which was a British defence research unit. During the 1960s, the famous ceramic Chobham armour, along with other armoured vehicle designs, was conceived here. In 2006 the site was taken over by Longcross Film Studios. Over the years, numerous buildings, office blocks and workshops ranging in size from 2,000 sq. ft to 13,000 sq. ft were built on the site, all of which have recently been used by various leading production companies. Many blockbuster films such as Thor 2, Fast and Furious 6 and Skyfall have been made at Longcross Studios. This first phase of Longcross studios was approx. 50 acres in size and was referred to as C1 and C2. CHALLENGE: Care would need to be taken as works would continue around live services such as water, electricity, telecoms, and gas. Being an ex-MOD site, there could be a risk of unexploded ordnance (UXOs) buried in the ground. Licensed asbestos was identified in multiple buildings, so this would need removing subject to a Plan of Works for each unit.

  • History of Ottershaw Cricket Club Written and Researched by Richard Bowden
    History of Ottershaw Cricket Club Written and researched by Richard Bowden Although we cannot, at present, say exactly when the village cricket club began, a later reference suggests that it was probably in the middle 1850s. The first season for which match reports survive is 1869 by when the club appears to have been quite well-established. It was, at that time, captained by the younger William Fletcher, son of the founder of Fletcher’s Nurseries which was to expand across much of Ottershaw between the 1880s and 1920s. As the Surrey press pointed out, the club was fortunate to play its home games in the beautiful surroundings of Ottershaw Park, seat of Sir Edward Colebrooke M.P., who may well have been the club’s President at this stage. By the early 1880s however, the club was playing in Botley’s Park and the club’s presidency had passed to the local vicar, the Rev. Baron Hichens. Hichen was to retain the position for an almost unbroken spell of twenty years. William Fletcher had retired and in the last decade of the century his place was taken by his young nephew, Edmund Fletcher. The years immediately before and after the First World War constituted something of a ‘golden age’ for the local village cricket club. In 1907 the elder of the two Otter boys, Robert, later Major, RE Otter, club captain at the time, succeeded Rev. Percy Phillips as President and, in the following year, G.W. ‘Jocky’ Attfield, yard manager at Fletcher Brothers, took over the duties of club secretary and the list of fixtures expanded considerably.

  • Runnymede Borough Council Election Results 1973-2012
    Runnymede Borough Council Election Results 1973-2012 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.
