I'm old enough to tell them there is very little similarity. I grew up from five years old with wartime controls and rationing. During our current lockdown we have the benefits of 75 years of technological development to help us, the world seems a smaller place. Communication is instant with the internet and TV and our mobile phones, access to the most recent news is available to all.

  • Once Upon a Time There Was a Small Town in a Bend of a River and A
    Further Electoral Review of Stafford Borough Council Submission by Councillor Robert Stephens and Neil Thomas Introduction This is an independent submission by Councillor Robert Stephens (who represents the Milford ward on Stafford Borough Council) and Neil Thomas, a Doxey parish councillor and political journalist who has previously made submissions to the LGBCE and its predecessor concerning the last two reviews of Staffordshire County Council’s electoral arrangements. Councillor Stephens made a representation to the Commission at the preliminary stage on council size. Mr Thomas did not. Neither of us supported a reduction in the size of the council but since the Commission is minded to do so we are making what we regard as a constructive submission. Council size For reasons we explain in more detail below, we believe it is more practical to reduce the number of councillors to 44 than to 40 as proposed by Stafford Borough Council. The main reason for this lies in the difficulty inherent in dividing Stafford town into meaningful wards represented by 19 councillors – the number required if the total number is to be only 40. We contend coherent boundaries are more easily achieved if Stafford town were to be represented by 21 councillors. Inevitably, the need to achieve a good degree of electoral equality requires that Stone town should be represented by six councillors and the countryside surrounding both towns by 17 – one more each than is proposed by the borough council. The average number of electors per councillor with 44 members would be 2,315. Our submission would reduce the number of councillors by more than 25%, compared with the 32% advocated by the Conservative and Labour parties in their submissions.

  • High Offley Parish Neighbourhood Plan 2011 to 2031
    High Offley Parish Neighbourhood Plan 2011 - 2031 SUBMISSION TO STAFFORD BOROUGH COUNCIL. High Offley Parish Neighbourhood Plan 2011 - 2031 Foreword 1. High Offley Parish was designated a Neighbourhood Plan area in March 2016 and High Offley Parish Council has produced a Neighbourhood Plan covering the entire High Offley Parish area. 2. The Parish Council has produced the High Offley Parish Neighbourhood Plan with assistance from a working group made up of elected residents and council members and help from the Borough Council. 3. The Neighbourhood Plan will form the basis for planning decisions applicable to High Offley Parish up to 2031, together with the policies in the National Planning Policy Framework, which embraces the whole of the country and the Plan for Stafford Borough which covers the area controlled by the Borough Council. It is the Borough Council as the Local Planning Authority who determine Planning Applications but they will have to consider the policies in the Neighbourhood Plan when reaching their decision. 4. This Plan reflects community wide comments, observations and concerns derived from a wide range of consultation, including a parish wide questionnaire, public meetings, views from residents, developers, landowners, businesses and other stakeholders. The Plan sets out a Vision with Aspirations and planning policies aiming to help shape future development in the Key Service Village of Woodseaves and the wider High Offley Parish. The Policies aim to address key concerns raised by local people including protecting the character of our rural communities. 5. Other concerns include the types of housing being developed and the future housing needs of the elderly.

  • High Offley Parish Council
    1/15/2015 High Offley ­ Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia High Offley Coordinates: 52.8325°N 2.32231°W From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia High Offley is a small village and civil parish in Staffordshire, England. It lies 3 miles southwest of the small town of Eccleshall and about 1 mile west of the village of Woodseaves, both on the High Offley A519. Woodseaves is the largest settlement in the parish, which also includes the hamlet of Shebdon to the WSW of High Offley, as well as a number of scattered houses and small farms (such as on Grub Street). The Shropshire Union Canal runs through the parish, to the southwest of the villages of High Offley and Woodseaves, with the Shebdon aqueduct and wharf in the west of the parish, from Shebdon towards Knighton. Church The Anchor Inn by the canal There is a church dedicated to St Mary: "High Offley Church, St Mary, is an ancient Gothic fabric, neatly pewed with oak. It has an excellent organ, which was given by John Salmon, Esq, of London, a native of this parish. It has several monuments of the Skrymsher and other families, and a handsome one was erected in 1851 in memory of the late Bishop Ryder, at the expense of the present vicar."[1] Pevsner dates most of the church to the 13th century with High Offley some earlier Norman features and some from later St Mary's Church periods.[2] The core of the church dates from the 12th century, and features from the 13th century are still present, including the lower stages of the tower and the south arcade.

    Five Walks in High Offley Parish Walks in High Offley Parish – Jan 2018 Introduction Here are the descriptions of five walks in the parish of High Offley. The walks stretch across the parish from east to west and offer a range of walks of between 1 and 3½ miles. The two shortest walks have no stiles but the longest has in excess of twenty. The walks can all be linked together in several combinations to create longer walks some of which are indicated in the descriptions. The descriptions also include notes about the history of the parish. The paragraph numbers, 1.1, 1.2, etc. correspond to the numbers shown on the map in the description of the walk. Should you encounter any problems in following the descriptions, or if you know of other points of interest relating to the walks, that could be included in the notes, please contact Geoff Loadwick of Woodseaves, telephone 01785 284 359. Should you encounter any problems such as damaged or overgrown stiles, or paths that have been ploughed or planted over and not restored, please report them to Staffordshire County Council using the link:http://www.staffordshire.gov.uk/environment/eLand/RightsofWay/PublicPathObstruction.aspx Geoff would also be interested to hear about them. 2 Walks in High Offley Parish – Jan 2018 Walk 1 – A circuit from Woodseaves Village Hall via Littleworth . This walk is slightly more than one mile long and does not have any stiles. For those who do not mind a slightly longer walk with four stiles, there is a variation that extends the walk to one mile and a quarter.
