  • A Short History of Colchester Castle
    Colchester Borough Council Colchester and Ipswich Museum Service A SHORT HISTORY OF COLCHESTER CASTLE 1066, the defeat of the English by the invading army of Duke William of Normandy. After his victory at the Battle of Hastings, William strengthened his hold on the defeated English by ordering castles to be built throughout the country. Colchester was chosen for its port and its important military position controlling the southern access to East Anglia. In 1076 work began on Colchester Castle, the first royal stone castle to be built by William in England. The castle was built around the ruins of the colossal Temple of Claudius using the Roman temple vaults as its base, parts of which can be seen to this day. As a result the castle is the largest ever built by the Normans. It was constructed mainly of building material from Colchester's Roman ruins with some imported stone. Most of the red brick in the castle was taken from Roman buildings. England, William's newly won possession, was soon under threat from another invader, King Cnut of Denmark. The castle had only been built to first floor level when it had to be hastily strengthened with battlements. The invasion never came and work resumed on the castle which was finally completed to three or four storeys in 1125. The castle came under attack in 1216 when it was besieged for three months and eventually captured by King John after he broke his agreement with the rebellious nobles (Magna Carta). By 1350, however, its military importance had declined and the building was mainly used as a prison.

  • Brentwood Borough Council Response To: Chelmsford City Council Local Plan Preferred Options Consultation May 2017
    Brentwood Borough Council response to: Chelmsford City Council Local Plan Preferred Options Consultation May 2017 Thank you for inviting Brentwood Borough Council to provide comments as part of Chelmsford City Council’s consultation on its Local Plan Preferred Options document. Brentwood Borough Council is a neighbouring local planning authority and there are a number of strategic issues, such as housing and infrastructure, which can be considered at levels greater than a single planning authority area and which concern both Councils. It is important that such issues are addressed through collaborative working and meaningful discussions in accordance with legislation, the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), and Planning Practice Guidance. Please note that we have limited comments to high level strategic issues that potentially impact directly on Brentwood Borough. Comments on the Chelmsford Plan are provided below. Regional Context: North and Central Essex (Heart and Haven) 1. The Council notes the ‘Heart and Haven’ Strategic Housing Market Area (HMA), comprising the local authorities of Chelmsford, Colchester, Braintree and Tendering. Brentwood Borough Council is in general support of this approach. Whilst it is accepted that Brentwood Borough does not share a HMA with the Chelmsford City Council area, Brentwood’s Strategic Housing Market Assessment evidence suggests there are strong links between our two boroughs. Development Requirements: Strategic Policy S8 2. The Council notes the commitment to allocating locations for housing, Gypsy and Traveller accommodation, Travelling Showpeople accommodation, employment and retail. Brentwood Borough Council supports the proposed development requirements set out in Strategic Policy S8 of the Chelmsford Draft Local Plan in meeting the City Councils identified development needs in full.
