    Community Governance Review of Haslingfield Parish Terms of Reference www.scambs.gov.uk 1. Introduction 1.1 South Cambridgeshire District Council has resolved to undertake a Community Governance Review of the parish of Haslingfield. 1.2 This review is to address the population growth in respect of the new housing development at Trumpington Meadows: to consider whether the creation or alteration (and thus naming) of existing parish boundaries and any consequent changes to the electoral arrangements for the parish(es) should be recommended. 1.3 In undertaking this review the Council has considered the Guidance on Community Governance Reviews issued by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, published in April 2008, which reflects Part 4 of the Local Government and Public Involvement in HealthAct 2007 and the relevant parts of the Local Government Act 1972, Guidance on Community Governance Reviews issued in accordance with section 100(4) of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007 by the Department of Communities and Local Government and the Local Government Boundary Commission for England in March 2010, and the following regulations which guide, in particular, consequential matters arising from the Review: Local Government (Parishes and Parish Councils) (England) Regulations 2008 (SI2008/626). (The 2007 Act transferred powers to the principal councils which previously, under the Local Government Act 1997, had been shared with the Electoral Commission’s Boundary Committee for England.) 1.4 These Terms of Reference will set out clearly the matters on which the Community Governance Review is to focus. We will publish this document on our website and also in hard copy.

Given the number of large scale developments within the Southern Fringes of the city, the brief was specifically intended to consider and develop an artist’s project in response to; o Links between the new developments on Clay Farm and Glebe Farm with the existing communities of Trumpington, the city centre and outlying villages – Wayfinding o To consider routes between Addenbrooke’s Hospital and the proposed Biomedical development area with new and existing residential communities and the City. o To promote walking and cycling routes to Nine Wells Nature Reserve, Byron’s Pools, Grantchester Meadows, the new development on Trumpington Meadows and the Country Park. o To work with the City Council and all key stakeholders, including local community/ interest groups - and to link the work to other commissioned artists working in the Southern Fringe across all development sites. o To develop and implement the final project over a three – four year period. This framework document brings together my final proposal, outlining the evolution of the idea, the conceptual underpinning, a developed budget and timescale, established partnerships and those people with whom we wish to work.

    TRUMPINGTON HISTORY TRAILS Trumpington to Hauxton and the Shelfords Local Villages and the River Granta 7 Walk or cycle approximately 6.5 miles/10.5 km walk on pavements and footpaths, including grass paths which can be muddy, but there are tarmac alternatives; cycle on roads and dual use paths. Return route can be combined with Trail 8 1. Start at the green by the shops, Anstey Way Go along Anstey Way to the High Street, turn left to the pedestrian crossing, cross the road and continue left along Hauxton Road past the Park & Ride site. Stop at the milestone just before the Addenbrooke’s Road junction (Trail 3). 2. Turnpike milestone III, 1729 The milestone is the third in a series erected by Trinity Hall along the turnpike from Cambridge to Barkway. ‘Cambridge’ was removed during World War II and recut later; and the date below ‘AD’ was lost when the stone was damaged by a vehicle (‘MDCCXXIX’, 1729). The milestone was renovated in 2011 when the road was realigned. Go on to the junction and take the cycle path to the right. Now part of the Trumpington Meadows development, the area to the left was a Prisoner of War Camp in World War II (Trail 3). Continue to the left turn. 3. Anstey Hall Farm Shepherd’s Cottage When Trumpington parish was enclosed in 1804- 09, most of the field between Hauxton Road and the river was awarded to Christopher Anstey. It had been known as Hauxton Field or Church Field. It became Anstey Hall Farm, which was taken over by the Plant Breeding Institute in 1950 (Trail 3), although the tenant (the Parsons family) continued to farm most of the land until 1971.
