  • Historic Walk-Thame-U3A-Draft 4
    Historic Walk – Thame & District U3A This rural walk along the River Thame passes through a number of villages of historical interest and visits the 15th century architectural gems of Rycote Chapel and Waterstock Mill. Starting at the church at Shabbington in Buckinghamshire the route soon crosses the River Thame into Oxfordshire and follows the river, before crossing the old railway line to reach Rycote Chapel. From Rycote the route follows an undulating track to Albury and then on to Tiddington. Heading south in Tiddington the route circles west to cross the railway line again before arriving at Waterstock via the golf course. Here there is an opportunity to visit the old mill before returning via the 17th century bridge at Ickford and back into Buckinghamshire. The small hamlet of Little Ickford is the last port of call before returning across the fields to Shabbington. In winter the conditions underfoot can be muddy and in times of flood parts of the route are impassable. Walk Length The main walk (Walk A) is just over 8.5 miles (13.8 km) long (inclusive of two detours to Rycote Chapel and Waterstock Mill) and is reasonably flat. At a medium walking pace this should take 3.5 to 4 hours but time needs to be added on to appreciate the points of interest along the way. Walk B is 5.8 miles (9.4 km) a shorter version of Walk A, missing out some of Tiddington and Waterstock. Walk C is another shorter variation of 4.7 miles (7.5 km), taking in Ickford Bridge, Albury and Waterstock but missing out Rycote Chapel and Shabbington.

This is an area of great natural beauty which attracts visitors and walkers from the surrounding areas. The churches have, in many ways, drawn closer together during the period of lockdown. The Associate Minister and a lay leader have led a weekly service of compline as well as signposting to other online services. The many who participated from across the benefice have begun to get to know each other better – a positive sign for the future of the benefice. The PCCs have engaged positively with deanery and diocesan advisers during the vacancy and have been open to exploring a more sustainable model of ministry for the future of the benefice. As you will see from the profile, they have identified a number of significant strengths, including their relationship with local schools and the level of support for the churches from within the village communities.

  • ICKFORD INFORMER July 2016
    ICKFORD INFORMER July 2016 Ickford Village website https://ickfordcommunity.wordpress.com An update on the Vale of Aylesbury Local Plan Following last year's Issues and Options Consultation, Aylesbury Vale have now released a new draft plan ready for the next stage of public consultation starting on 7th July. During the previous consultation, Ickford Parish Council objected to Ickford's classification as a 'larger village'. In the new draft plan, a new 'medium village' category has been made, and Ickford has been downgraded from a 'larger village' to a 'medium village'. In addition to this, rather than a set number of homes being allocated (100-120 in the previous draft plan), villages in the medium category will be allocated a housing growth of 19%, equating to 55 homes for Ickford. A series of consultation events will be held over the summer, where you can view the plans in detail and ask questions of officers. The nearest will be held at Haddenham Village Hall Social Centre on Monday 11th July from 11am to 8pm. Otherwise, full details of the plan and how to comment will be available on the AVDC website from 7th July. Please visit http://www.aylesburyvaledc.gov.uk/vale-aylesbury-local- plan-draft-plan for more information. Ickford Parish Council We are seeking a local resident to take on the role of Village Custodian for Ickford – this is a paid position & typically requires a commitment of 2-3 hours per week. The role is key to the upkeep, maintenance & smooth running of our village. Responsibilities include; checking & clearing public areas (hedges, footpaths, ditches); litter clearance; general maintenance, minor repairs to play equipment as & when required.

This is because forest of Bernwood Brill Hll rises from the centre of this undulating landscape.

This is reflected today in a generally dispersed woodland cover settlement pattern and large areas of ancient woodland. The area has a gently undulating landform, which is predominantly pasture.

From 2010 this standard report will be issued to each Local Area Forum (LAF) from Transport for Buckinghamshire. 2. It will aim to provide a comprehensive update on current and relevant Transportation issues which are tailored to each individual LAF. 3. Standard topics to be covered will be: - Dates of when Local Community Gangs will visit parishes - Major issues likely to affect parishes within the LAF - Update on ongoing local issues - Policy Development - Any other information 4. In addition, it will cover any emerging issues which could or will affect Local Areas Forum areas. Area Maintenance The main area of activity for the maintenance teams over the last few months has been winter maintenance, which is covered in a separate report. As you will all be aware the severe weather has lead to a rapid deterioration of many roads, which has meant that the majority of our teams have been engaged in carrying out pothole repairs. Since mid January we have had at least 5 teams in the Aylesbury Vale Area dealing with these problems and we are currently repairing in the order of 120 potholes per day and the problems do not appear to be slowing down. We aim to undertake permanent repairs, first time, but inevitably because of numbers, location or weather conditions temporary repairs have on occasions been necessary.
