  • Sutton Veny Best Kept Villages

    Sutton Veny Best Kept Villages

    Sutton Veny Best Kept Villages Villages clean up at contest The finalists of the Best Kept Village in west Wiltshire have been named. Bratton came top in the large village section, beating Atworth, Bowerhill, Holt and North Bradley, while Sutton Veny was judged the best medium village, finishing ahead of Edington, Horningsham, Shaw and Whitely. Best small village is Chitterne, which saw off competition from Beanacre, Bishopstrow and Boreham, Brokerswood, Coulston and Great Hinton. Chairman of Chitterne Parish Council, Jeremy Reid said: "We are absolutely delighted. The people who work voluntarily are the ones who made it possible." Chitterne was the only village of the three not to have received the same accolade two years running. The last time they won was in 1997. Cllr Reid said: "We listened to the judges last time and we have made some improvements. "We changed the position of the notice board and we did restoration work on the recreation ground." The three winners will now go through to the county final, which will be judged later this summer. Chairman of Sutton Veny Parish Council, Tony Henthorne said: "We have a core group of people who have helped and they did a sterling job of cleaning the village and making it tidy. "We are looking forward to the next round of the competition and hopefully we will have better luck than we did last year." Clerk of Bratton Parish Council, Anita Whittle said: "We are very pleased. Everyone is delighted. "Special thanks must go to the village handyman, Bob Jordan who has been tidying all the village lanes.

    Together We Learn

    Horningsham Primary School Together we learn Together we learn Welcome Together we learn Horningsham is a happy, vibrant and creative primary school where we aim to create a secure and lively environment in which each child can grow to their full potential. It is the combined effort of all concerned that makes our school such a happy and successful one. We hope you will become an active part of your child’s education and that we can maintain a close working relationship between school and home. Foreword from Lord Bath Living in Corsley as I did when I was a child, there was never a chance that I could attend Horningsham Primary School; but I certainly sent my two children there. It played such an important part in their early lives; a building that was architecturally exciting, with an atmosphere of extended family which took them into its formative embrace. Prior to its construction there had been a variety of very small schools within the village, but this was the first occasion that one had been created upon a purpose- built site. This was in 1844 at the instigation of Harriet, the third Marchioness; and there was an extra classroom added in 1893. Harriet was my great-great- grandmother, but the school took its name from her son, John Alexander, the 4th Marquess, who assumed the onerous duties as head of the family at the tender age of six. It was of course from him that I derive my own name, although my age was ten times greater than his before I was required to assume the same mantle of responsibility.

Public Participation The applicant of planning application 18/02927/FUL Conkwell Farm attended and it was agreed that any comments would be taken under the relevant planning item. 4. Planning 4.1 The Council considered the following planning applications: • 18/02927/FUL Conkwell Farm, BA15 2JG: Conversion of storage building to residential dwelling, with garage block, landscaping and access works. The owner had offered the opportunity of a site visit and the Planning Advisory Group would visit on Friday 4 May. Comments would then be circulated and agreed via email. The following comments were agreed following the site visit: The applicant is credited with taking an environmentally conscious approach to this development, further ‘recycling’ an extant agricultural building as the basis of the main part of the build. The house and garage are reasonable in size and would have no adverse effect on the Green Belt both in terms of visual amenity and impact on the infrastructure (roads, drainage etc).

    1 HILL DEVERILL – DRAFT TEXT by Virginia Bainbridge, John Chandler

    HILL DEVERILL – DRAFT TEXT By Virginia Bainbridge, John Chandler, Alex Craven and Dorothy Treasure The ancient parish of Hill Deverill included the detached tithing of Baycliffe which lay 5.5 km. west of Hill Deverill village.1 In 1884 Baycliffe (c. 200 a.)2 was absorbed into Horningsham parish, and in 1934 Hill Deverill itself (1,548 a.)3 was absorbed into Longbridge Deverill parish.4 The village of Hill Deverill straddles the River Wylye 5 km. south of Warminster. The parish was rarely more than 1 km. wide and extended from east to west across the upper Wylye, or Deverill, valley up onto the high chalk downs on each side. Apart from Baycliffe farm and Rye Hill farm in the west of the former parish, all medieval and later settlement has been in the river valley, where the manor house, former church, mill and village earthworks sit alongside cottages, watercress beds and some 20th-century housing. The parish may have acquired the name Hulle, or Hill, Deverill from its prominent western landmark, Bidcombe Hill.5 Boundaries Hill Deverill shared its entire southern boundary with Brixton Deverill, most of its northern boundary with Longbridge Deverill, shorter sections with Sutton Veny and Horningsham, and its western boundary with Maiden Bradley.6 Baycliffe was separated from Horningsham to the north and from Maiden Bradley to the south and east mainly by lanes, hedgerows, and by what was probably an ancient line 1 This article was written in 2009–10.

    Dear Consultee Proposed Changes to the Connect2 Wiltshire Taxibuzz

    APPENDIX 2 A / 2B May 2013 Passenger Transport Unit County Hall Bythesea Road Trowbridge Wiltshire BA14 8JN Our ref: IW/PTB302 Dear Consultee Proposed changes to the Connect2 Wiltshire Taxibuzz services in the Shrewton, Amesbury and Woodford Valley areas The Council is currently reviewing the Connect2 Wiltshire Taxibuzz service. I am writing to ask for your views on the proposed changes, which it is intended will be introduced in January 2014. This is one of an ongoing series of reviews which are looking at poorly-used transport services that require a relatively high level of council funding in relation to the number of passengers they carry. The reviews are being carried out in the context of the current pressures on public spending and the requirement of the Council’s Financial Plan to make savings in funding for bus services. However, although there is a need to make financial savings, the reviews are also a part of an ongoing re-assessment of the public transport network in the county, which aims to identify the most cost-effective means of meeting local access needs in a way that can be financially sustainable in the longer term. The help of the area boards and community area partnerships is being sought to identify local needs and priorities, and possible ways of meeting these in an affordable way. This could include local initiatives to develop community and voluntary transport, or car sharing. In this context, Wiltshire Council has been allocated some one-off funding by central government to assist with expanding and setting up community transport schemes.
