  • 3 November 2011
    TELFORD & WREKIN COUNCIL COUNCIL- 3 NOVEMBER 2011 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO SUPPLEMENT REPORT ABOUT THE REVIEW OF PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCIES REPORT OF THE HEAD OF GOVERNANCE 1.0 DETAILS OF THE CABINET REQUEST 1.1 At the meeting of Cabinet on 20 th October 2011, Cabinet Members agreed that officers be requested to provide further information to all members about alternative boundaries that would respect the identity of Telford as a town and would provide for a surrounding mixed market town and rural constituency. 1.2 This report provides details about how an alternative option might be presented within the overall envelope of the two proposed constituencies and presents arguments for and against this alternative proposal 2.0 RELEVANT CRITERIA 2.1 The criteria that the Boundary Commission for England are required to work to in recommending new constituencies are detailed in paragraph 3.3 of the main report to Council. 2.2 An alternative proposal could be to create two constituencies within the proposed ‘envelope’ of Telford and Wrekin and eastern Shropshire, but with boundaries that were redrawn to create a Telford constituency and a market towns/ rural constituency. 2.3 Such a proposal could meet the primary criterion, with the electorates of each constituency falling within the range between 72,810 and 80,473 – that is 5% either side of the electoral quota of 76,641. This would involve taking in Borough wards incrementally to the north of the M54, but to a point, too, where the rural constituency is also within quota. The following map extract and table show that this balance can only be achieved at a certain point.

  • Broseley in Shropshire 1600-1820
    INDUSTRIALISATION AND AN EARLY MODERN TOWN: BROSELEY IN SHROPSHIRE 1600-1820 by STEPHEN CHARLES HUDSON A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Culture College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham June 2017 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT This work is the first attempt to analyse, assess and evaluate the broad process of industrialisation in Broseley, Shropshire between 1600 and c.1820. The thesis is a study of historical processes of growth, development and, ultimately the beginning of decline of a small industrial urban settlement above the Severn Gorge on the southern margins of the east Shropshire coalfield. These historical processes, socio-economic in character, are shown to interact and produce an early industrial town, possessing certain characteristics, features and traditions, unusual if not unique in a settlement of this nature. A variety of source material – primary documentary, archaeological/field and secondary – is used to examine the origins and growth of three groups of industries - mining, iron and ceramics - and the social fabric and stratification that were both the cause and consequence of their development.

We visit the highest points in both Shropshire and in Telford with beautiful panoramic views and remains of older landscapes with hill forts, trees and industrial workings. You can see 17 counties from the top of The Wrekin and to the Brecon Beacons from Brown Clee; we can’t guarantee the clear weather needed 17 counties can be seen from The Wrekin to see them though. We go to many favourite places in the Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the Shropshire Hills, no matter how many times one visits these local highlights one always finds something new to delight the eye. There are many local walks too, in flatter countryside in East Shropshire and in and around Telford; areas well known and well walked by people living adjacent to them but unknown to the rest of us. Our popular ‘short and social’ walks on the first Thursday of the month will as usual provide many chances to sample the food and drink available at local hostelries and chat and get to know fellow members after walk of five miles or under. Isle of Wight Holiday In the last newsletter we mentioned the possibility of a group walking holiday to the Isle of Wight.

    BRIDGNORTH & MORVILLE Parishes Team Ministry Bridgnorth Shropshire in the Archdeaconry of Ludlow in the Diocese of Hereford TEAM PROFILE & STATEMENT OF NEEDS June 2016 BRIDGNORTH & MORVILLE Parishes Team Ministry Introduction The Bridgnorth & Morville Parishes Team Ministry serves the attractive and historic market town parish of Bridgnorth and eight adjoining parishes of Acton Round, Astley Abbotts, Aston Eyre, Monkhopton with Upton Cressett, Morville, Oldbury, Tasley and Quatford. The church communities are growing together with a focus in their next stage of ministry on intentional evangelism relevant to the wide range of people in the community as described below. The churches have a wide range of tradition, and each brings its own gifts and strengths to that ministry. Styles of worship vary from choral to charismatic and all are valued. There is a regular healing ministry centred on communion at St. Mary’s and there is a long history of shared ministry between ordained and lay church members. The church is at the heart of all the communities, and the congregations know this is key to the future mission of the church. They are looking for new staff who will help them to turn this engagement into growth. The area The area enjoys beautiful countryside and is located in the Severn Valley between the West Midlands conurbation and the Welsh borders. It is a popular centre for tourism, and Bridgnorth itself hosts an inland Cliff Railway and the northern terminus for the Severn Valley Railway. Bridgnorth was the first town in Shropshire to achieve Fair Trade status, and currently the population of the Team area is approximately 16,000.
