    A Brief History of Smethwick Old Church (Revised 2020)

    A BRIEF HISTORY OF SMETHWICK OLD CHURCH by Brian Jones (1998) Updated by Smethwick Local History Society 2020 1 Dorothy Parkes 16th September 1644 – 7th June 1727 Foundress and Benefactress of Old Church 2 3 Until the 19th Century Smethwick lay in the parish of St. Peter’s, Harborne and before 1732 Smethwick church-goers had to make the long trek to St. Peter’s to hear the word of God, to receive the sacrament, and for baptisms, marriages and burials. It is said that ruffians and thieves from Birmingham lay in wait for them in the Lord’s Wood, where the good Smethwick folk were robbed and assaulted. Whatever the truth of that story, it must have been a muddy and miserable journey in the winter months taking anything up to two hours each way if you lived at the Oldbury side of Smethwick and many Smethwickians must have forgone the venture. Another story states that one Easter morning the good people of Smethwick travelled (most on foot) to St. Peter’s to celebrate Easter, only to find the Church locked. On enquiry Dorothy Parkes was told that the Vicar was in Lichfield on Church business, but having spoken to her friend, the wife of the Dean of Lichfield Cathedral, she heard that the Vicar had not been seen in Lichfield for months and was not there over the Easter period. Dorothy wrote to the Bishop of Lichfield to complain. Despite Smethwick’s description in the 17th century as a scattered settlement there must have been sufficient people living here for Dorothy Parkes to consider it worthwhile to pay for a chapel to be built, and their welfare, both spiritual and physical, to be provided for.

    Berkswell Parish Council Response to the Draft Solihull Housing Plan

    Berkswell Parish Council Response to the draft Solihull Housing plan consultation 1. Introduction and summary 1.1. Summary 1.1.1. The Council’s general view is that there are significant errors and omissions in the site selection methodology. An overview is given in answer to question 2 and particular comments for the Barratt’s Farm and Windmill Lane sites. These errors and omissions are such that the results are considered to be badly flawed. 1.1.2. The Council has been advised by residents of other significant errors within the SHELAA that materially impact the scoring results. The Council has not had the time and resources to study these but will have investigated by the time of the examination. 1.1.3. The Council supports the inclusion within this version of the plan of brownfield sites that were omitted from the first draft of the plan. 1.1.4. The Council considers that brownfield sites should be phased for development during the early phases of the plan to allow time for any development issues to be resolved within the 15-year plan period. If necessary greenfield sites can then be brought forward if the brownfield sites slip. 1.1.5. The Council is concerned that there is no reflection of the Berkswell Parish draft NDP within the draft plan. 1.1.6. The Council welcomes the infrastructure plan but makes significant suggestions for enhancement. Berkswell Parish Council apologises for the length of this submission but considers that the issues are important and worthy of deep consideration with an honest attempt by SMBC to conduct a suitable and sufficient review of the draft plan proposals.

    Making Space for Sex Work: Female Street Prostitution and the Production of Urban Space

    Volume 27.1 March 2003 75±89 International Journal of Urban and Regional Research Making Space for Sex Work: Female Street Prostitution and the Production of Urban Space PHIL HUBBARD and TEELA SANDERS Introduction It has been widely asserted that the female prostitute constitutes a central figure in the social imagination, playing an important symbolic role in the definition of moral standards. For example, many commentators have noted that the street prostitute has been stereotypically depicted as a motif of degeneracy, contagion and sexual lasciviousness, and hence a threat to male bourgeois values (Walkowitz, 1992; O’Neill, 2001). Similarly, the idea that the criminalization of street prostitution has been a means of establishing wider notions of what is socially and morally acceptable has also been widely documented (Duncan, 1996). Yet there have been few studies that have related these general ideas to specific spaces, detailing how female prostitution is implicated in the making of urban orders. Exceptions note that prostitution tends to be concentrated in particular areas, but say little of the processes by which these spaces are produced. For example, while Symanski (1981) provided an extensive mapping of the varied ‘immoral landscapes’ existing in different historical and geographical contexts, his work made little mention of the appropriation, occupation and use of these landscapes, particularly the way they are shaped by female sex workers. Equally, Ashworth et al. (1988) sought to extend Symanski’s analysis, theorizing the location of vice in the city as the outcome of consumer choice within socio-legal constraints, but ignored the way that sex workers create red-light districts through their distinctive spatial practices (which change according to legislative climate, levels of mutual support, client demand and so on — see Brewis and Linstead, 2000).
