  • Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the Differences Between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas
    Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the differences between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas This document should be read in conjunction with the School Places Strategy 2017 – 2022 and provides an explanation of the differences between the Wiltshire Community Areas served by the Area Boards and the School Planning Areas. The Strategy is primarily a school place planning tool which, by necessity, is written from the perspective of the School Planning Areas. A School Planning Area (SPA) is defined as the area(s) served by a Secondary School and therefore includes all primary schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into that secondary school. As these areas can differ from the community areas, this addendum is a reference tool to aid interested parties from the Community Area/Area Board to define which SPA includes the schools covered by their Community Area. It is therefore written from the Community Area standpoint. Amesbury The Amesbury Community Area and Area Board covers Amesbury town and surrounding parishes of Tilshead, Orcheston, Shrewton, Figheldean, Netheravon, Enford, Durrington (including Larkhill), Milston, Bulford, Cholderton, Wilsford & Lake, The Woodfords and Great Durnford. It encompasses the secondary schools The Stonehenge School in Amesbury and Avon Valley College in Durrington and includes primary schools which feed into secondary provision in the Community Areas of Durrington, Lavington and Salisbury. However, the School Planning Area (SPA) is based on the area(s) served by the Secondary Schools and covers schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into either The Stonehenge School in Amesbury or Avon Valley College in Durrington.

  • Maternal Mortality, Sixteenth to Eighteenth Centuries
    Medical History, 1982, 26: 79-90. AN ATTEMPT TO ESTIMATE THE TRUE RATE OF MATERNAL MORTALITY, SIXTEENTH TO EIGHTEENTH CENTURIES by B. M. WILLMOTT DOBBIE* AN ENQUIRY into family structure in previous centuries reveals evidence of the high price in women's lives of replenishment of the population. It could not be otherwise, for when Nature failed in her task, or was thwarted by such adversities as pelvic deformity or malpresentation, attempts to help were mostly fumbling in the dark, literally and metaphorically, and well-meant interference was almost certain to introduce infection, so often fatal. The study that follows is based upon parish registers, and it must be prefaced with a reminder that exact truth is unattainable; most of the data are flawed, some seriously. Nothing better than an informed estimate can be hazarded, using such solid facts as can be gathered, and not scorning crumbs of evidence. This paper draws attention to some sources of error. The subject of childbirth deaths in past centuries has not received much attention; in fact, little is known in any quantitative sense, and the difficulties of collecting and interpreting evidence are daunting. DEFINITION OF MATERNAL MORTALITY The question must be considered: for how long after childbirth may death of the mother be the consequence? The International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics includes deaths up to forty-two days after delivery or termination, though accepting that later fatality is possible. The triennial reports into maternal deaths in England and Wales' include deaths up to a year, but usually have the advantage of an autopsy, and reject deaths obviously unconnected.

  • THE GREAT BATH ROAD, 1700-1830 Brendaj.Buchanan
    THE GREAT BATH ROAD, 1700-1830 BrendaJ.Buchanan The great turnpike highway from London to the spa city of Bath is surrounded by legend and romance, 1 which have come to obscure the fact that at no time in the period studied was there any one single Bath Road. Instead, from the beginning of the eighteenth century there were created over the years and in a patchy, disorganized sequence, some fifteen turnpike trusts which with varying degrees of efficiency undertook the improvement of the roads under their legislative care. Not until the mid-eighteenth century was it possible to travel the whole distance between capital and provincial city on improved roads, and even then the route was not fixed. Small changes were frequently made as roads were straightened and corners removed, the crowns of hills lowered and valley bottoms raised. On a larger scale, new low-level sections were built to replace older upland routes, and most significant of all, some whole roads went out of use as traffic switched to routes which were better planned and engineered by later trusts. And at the time when the turnpike roads were about to face their greatest challenge from the encroaching railways in the 1830s, there were at the western end of the road to Bath not one but two equally important routes into the city, via Devizes and Melksham, or through Calne and Chippenham along the line known to-day as the A4. This is now thought of as the traditional Bath Road, but it can be demonstrated that it is only one of several lines which in the past could lay claim to that title.

  • English Heritage Battlefield Report: Lansdown 1643
    English Heritage Battlefield Report: Lansdown 1643 Lansdown Hill (5 July 1643) Parish: Cold Ashton, Doynton, Bitton, Charlcombe, North Stoke Districts: Bath and North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire County: Bath and North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire Grid Ref:ST 723712 Historical Context In the early summer of 1643 the Royalist position in England gave rise to a certain optimism. Parliamentarian morale had been dented by a series of Royalist successes which included Adwalton Moor, Hopton Heath, Ripple Field, Stratton and Chalgrove. Moreover, Oxford was still reasonably secure. In the West, however, Parliamentarian garrisons continued to hold out in Devon, while Gloucester, Bristol and Bath were firmly controlled by Parliament. Sir William Waller, as Major General of the Western Association Forces, commanded Parliament's not inconsiderable military resources in Shropshire, Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Somerset. If there was to be a chance of Sir Ralph Hopton's Royalist army marching east to join the King's Oxford army in a combined advance on London, Parliament's position in the West must first be destroyed. Hopton's victory at Stratton in May 1643 and his subsequent progress through Devon encouraged the King to send him additional troops under Prince Maurice and the Marquis of Hertford. At Chard on 4 June Hopton's reinforced army totalled some 4,000 foot, 2,000 horse and 300 dragoons, together with 16 pieces of artillery. An ingenious command system was now evolved to encompass the dignity, rank and military skills of Maurice, Hertford and Hopton. While Hertford commanded in name, Hopton commanded in the field and Maurice devoted his attention to the Horse.

The sides' of these cuttings are &equently supported by retaining walls constructed using_in situ techniques such as diaphragm walling. In the permanent condition the retaining walls may be supported at formation level by’ concrete props. The design of retaining walls supported at g formation level is largely govemed by the stability and serviceability requirements during construction, before the permanent props. are installed. 'In appropriate situations the use of berms in conjunction with careful monitoring can be an economical and effective means of construction. The magnitude of movements can be limited by construction control. Results from monitoring 'show that berms are effective in supporting retaining walls during temporary construction stages. 1.
