The following year the company took over the ships operated by Ford and Jackson on the route between Wales and Ireland. Services were operated between Weymouth, the Channel Islands and France on the former Weymouth and Channel Islands Steam Packet Company routes. Smaller GWR vessels were also used as tenders at Plymouth and on ferry routes on the River Severn and River Dart. The railway also operated tugs and other craft at their docks in Wales and South West England.

  • Chapel-En-Le-Frith Parish Neighbourhood Plan Provides a Vision for the Future of the Parish
    Chapel-en-le-Frith Parish NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2013-2028 EXAMINATION VERSION . 1 Introduction A Neighbourhood Plan is a new type of planning document. It is part of the new approach to planning, which aims to give local people more say about what goes on in their area. This is set out in the ‘Localism Act’ that came into force in April 2012. Chapel-en-le-Frith Parish Council wants to ensure that local people are involved in the choices that will help to shape our neighbourhood. This Neighbourhood Plan sets out a vision for the area that reflects the views and feelings of local people with a real interest in their community. It has been produced, after much public consultation, on behalf of Chapel-en-le-Frith Parish Council by Chapel Vision - a volunteer group of local residents from across the Parish. This Neighbourhood Plan has been compiled following an examination of local housing, employment opportunities, including tourism, town and village centres, sustainable transport movement and the countryside within the Parish. The Neighbourhood Plan includes a number of policies for each of these areas, which are discussed within the Plan and listed in Appendix 1. These policies are based on evidence collected by Chapel Vision in the research phase of the compilation of the Neighbourhood Plan, which includes the views of the public. Chapel-en-le-Frith Neighbourhood Plan 2013 – 2028 The Neighbourhood Plan and evidence documents can be viewed via the link from the Parish Council website www.chapel-en-le-frithparishcouncil.gov. uk For any further information please contact: The Clerk to the Parish Council Town Hall Market Street Chapel-en-le-Frith High Peak SK23 0HP Tel: 01298 813320 1 Vision and status of the Neighbourhood Plan The Chapel-en-le-Frith Parish Neighbourhood Plan provides a vision for the future of the Parish.

In this pack you should find sufficient information to enable you to settle into the area, find out about the facilities on offer, and details of many of the clubs and societies. If specific information about your particular interest or need is not shown, then pop into the Town Hall Information Point and ask there. If they don't know the answer, they usually know someone who does! The Parish Council produces a quarterly Newsletter which is available from the Town Hall or the Post Office. Chapel is a small friendly town with a long history, in a beautiful location, almost surrounded by the Peak District National Park. It's about 800 feet above sea level, and its neighbour, Dove Holes, is about 1000 feet above, so while the weather can be sometimes wild, on good days its situation is magnificent. The Parish Council takes pride in maintaining the facilities it directly controls, and ensures that as far as possible, the other Councils who provide many of the local services - High Peak Borough Council (HPBC) and Derbyshire County Council (DCC) also serve the area well.

  • Newsletter 164 Summer 2014
    NEWSLETTER 164 SUMMER 2014 Known to the Trevithick Society as the Gawns wheel, it was re-christened the Lady Evelyn in 2006 once it had been restored to its original site at Laxey on the Isle of Man. Reg. Charity 1 No. 246586 CHAIRMAN’S ADDRESS Horse and cart Elsewhere in this newsletter there are details of our Facebook social media page. A recent survey in a Society meeting at King Edward Mine revealed that only four members out of the twenty four present had any connection with Facebook. I know the understanding of its technology doesn’t come easily to those of us who are elderly folk but this has happened in every generation. I well remember the fear some people had that the television set in the corner of the room was spying on them and there were those who rejected the motor car in favour of the horse and cart. I agree that both those innovations were expensive and that may have been the real reason for avoiding them. However, Facebook is free and it’s the way we communicate with future members. In a few years most members of this Society will be able to skateboard, I wonder what technology they will be avoiding. The recent AGM Weekend in North Cornwall was a very pleasant success in spite of the weather. It was clear that those present enjoyed themselves, renewed friendships and took the opportunity to celebrate their membership of the Society, its existence and achievements. Our thanks are due to those who organised the events and prepared the illustrated notes.

  • Source: Thanks to Chinley, Buxworth and Brownside Parish Council
    The parish of Chinley, Buxworth and Brownside is located at the western edge of the Dark Peak landscape area of the Peak District National Park. In terms of area, approximately half of the parish is within the National Park, although it is worth noting the majority of development and population of the parish are outside of the National Park boundary. Chinley and Buxworth are the main settlements which are located to the north of the A6 road, outside the National Park. Historically, Chinley was a Anglo-Saxon settlement of scattered farmsteads. During the 17th century the local area was mined and quarried and consequently Chinley’s population grew. These local industries developed further following the building of the Peak Forest Canal and tramway in 1799 and again when the railway came in 1866. The addition of a passenger line in 1894 saw further population growth. However, the closures of the mines and quarry in the early 20th century saw the population decline. It declined further following WWII when the passenger service was reduced, however in recent years there has been a significant amount of new housing development in proximity of the parish and the area has become a very popular commuting area. Further development is also anticipated soon. New businesses have opened recently in the food and beverage, accommodation and childcare sectors. The area is a popular walking, cycling and horse-riding area with the Peak Forest Tramway Trail and Bugsworth Basin also popular attractions. Source: thanks to Chinley, Buxworth and Brownside Parish Council The parish straddles three landscape character areas within the Dark Peak; valley pastures with industry, enclosed gritstone upland and moorland hills and ridge as described in the Landscape Strategy (LSAP 2009).

  • Austin Et Al
    HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT RECORD CORNWALL Summary of Sources The standard search used for HERs elsewhere in England for the Framework, proved impractical for the Cornwall HER, due to the size of the database. Instead, the Cornwall Historic Environment Services provided detailed lists of reports commissioned by CCC over the past 20 years. The resource list below has been compiled from these lists, supplemented by selected items from a bibliography of published sources that was prepared in support of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage nomination. Additional material gleaned from other non CHES sources is also included. Cornwall is unlike any other county in England because of the totality of the archaeological evidence for metal mining, and the fact that mining remains have become so central to Cornwall’s historic environment policies; the output of archaeological research has increased greatly in the period leading up to and following the success of the WHS bid. The quantity of grey material is, therefore, on a commensurately large scale. Understandably, the major focus of archaeological research into extractive industries has been on metal mining, but china clay, slate and granite have all received some attention. Useful Contacts The Trevithick Society publishes a journal and a newsletter for which the article titles, although not the contents, are published online: http://www.trevithick-society.org.uk/journal.htm The Cornwall and West Devon World Heritage Site webpages contain much downloadable information: www.cornishmining.org.uk Cornwall Archaeological Society Index of Cornish Archaeology http://www.cornisharchaeology.org.uk/journal-index.htm Abbreviations CAU – Cornwall Archaeological Unit CHES – Cornwall Historic Environment Services CCC – Cornwall County Council [nb.
