In the summer of 2013, the Byfleet, West Byfleet, and Pyrford Residents Association (BWBPRA) was keen to see our three villages establishing neighbourhood plans under the Localism Act 2011 legislation. To this end, the BWBPRA initially allocated £1,000 to each village to cover initial expenses. This enabled us to propose the formation of the Pyrford Neighbourhood Forum at a public meeting in September 2013. The Pyrford Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group has been led by local residents (volunteers), with the aim of preparing a Plan that will deliver the long term goals of a balanced and vibrant neighbourhood. Since September 2013 we have held many public meetings, online and paper consultations, to seek the views of local residents and other stakeholders, groups and businesses who share an interest in our neighbourhood area. An active website has allowed everyone to keep up to date with our progress and to make contact with us. In developing the Neighbourhood Plan we have listened very carefully to the feedback received through all these consultations and have worked hard to ensure that the Plan incorporates and reflects the views of the whole community. -

THE START of the NECROPLOLIS Iain Wakeford 2015
ast January, in these articles, I started to look at the history of Woking in a way that most local history newspaper columns don’t (or cannot) now do. I wanted to get away from the normal superficial ‘peep’ into history and look a bit deeper at some L of the facts. For over thirty years I have been writing books and booklets about the history and heritage of Woking, so rather than just cobble together readers’ reminiscences’, I wanted to give my column some structure – to tell a more complete history of Woking (if a subject such as history can ever be complete). Starting with the geology and geography, I moved slowly onto the prehistoric before tackling the history of the area from the ‘Dark Ages’ onwards in an almost chronological order. Arthur Locke followed a similar approach many years ago, with readers cutting out and keeping his series of articles on ‘Woking Past’. At the end of last year we reached the 1840’s and 50’s and as well as looking at local chapels and schools, I touched upon the London Necropolis Company and Brookwood Cemetery (now owned by Woking Council). Over the next few months (if not years) I intend to tackle the subject of Woking ‘Past and Present’ in even more detail, beginning this week with a more detailed look at the Necropolis and why it came to Woking. THE START OF THE NECROPLOLIS Iain Wakeford 2015 The original plan for a cemetery on the whole of Woking n the first half of the 19th century the Common used Woking Station with private halts and But these new cemeteries themselves only had population of London had increased from chapels along the main line. -

Beating the Bounds
BEATING THE BOUNDS Iain Wakeford © 2014 ou might be forgiven, if you have looked at the previous pages on this site, in thinking that only Woking and Chertsey were recorded in this area before the writing of the Domesday Book.
