THE MERGING of MAYBURY INTO PYRFORD Iain Wakeford 2017
THE MERGING OF MAYBURY INTO PYRFORD Iain Wakeford 2017 hilst in the late 1950’s and early 60’s developers were busy filling in W the gaps to the west of Woking (between Knaphill and St Johns and on to Goldsworth), to the east of the town the Maybury area was also gradually merging with Pyrford and then on to the outskirts of West Byfleet. Earlier the London County Council’s Sheerwater Estate had linked up Woking and West Byfleet to the north of the railway, but to the south the West Byfleet Golf Course and the woodlands off Old Woking Road had managed to remain largely unspoiled (despite attempts by Woking and Wimbledon Council’s to acquire the Golf Course for housing in the early 1950’s). The Maybury Estate (which was given a Civic Trust award in 1960) did partially encroach on the woodlands of Pyrford in the mid 1950’s, but it was the development of the land at Norfolk Farm and the Pyrford Woods Estate (built by E & L Berg and Osterley Tudor Estates Ltd) that led to an almost continuous belt of housing on both sides of the Old Woking Road – albeit with a fair amount of mature trees remaining to Pyrford Woods (below), developed in the late 1950’s and early 60’s into the Pyrford Woods Estate disguise the developments. Osterley Estates were also busy building houses Indeed it seems from reading the minutes of building the Blackdown Hill Estate, and W & E on the ‘Wildwood Estate’ off Hacketts Lane, as the council’s planning committee that the land Simmons Ltd (of Walton) working on the well as building some of the numerous little on either side of the Old Woking Road, from Pyrford House Estate further up the road. -

In the summer of 2013, the Byfleet, West Byfleet, and Pyrford Residents Association (BWBPRA) was keen to see our three villages establishing neighbourhood plans under the Localism Act 2011 legislation. To this end, the BWBPRA initially allocated £1,000 to each village to cover initial expenses. This enabled us to propose the formation of the Pyrford Neighbourhood Forum at a public meeting in September 2013. The Pyrford Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group has been led by local residents (volunteers), with the aim of preparing a Plan that will deliver the long term goals of a balanced and vibrant neighbourhood. Since September 2013 we have held many public meetings, online and paper consultations, to seek the views of local residents and other stakeholders, groups and businesses who share an interest in our neighbourhood area. An active website has allowed everyone to keep up to date with our progress and to make contact with us. In developing the Neighbourhood Plan we have listened very carefully to the feedback received through all these consultations and have worked hard to ensure that the Plan incorporates and reflects the views of the whole community. -

On Wednesday and Thursday Nights, Year 8 Took Me Back to Those
On Wednesday and Thursday nights, Year 8 took me back to those halcyon days of young love and boy band crushes when they entertained two fully packed theatre audiences with Totally Over You. It was a performance full of spirit and courage as four, hitherto non singing and dancing boys from Year 8 were catapulted, courtesy of Mrs Housego’s casting, into the founding members of Awesome, Hazelwood’s answer to Take That and Boyzone. There were moments of joy, of pathos and of teenage intrigue. As always with the Year 8 play, aside from the leading cast members who all performed brilliantly, there were some compelling cameo performances the most watchable of which was Jack G’s dancing in the shadows during the band’s big number. Well done to the cast who pulled together the play in just a few weeks and to Mrs Housego for yet again bringing the curtain down on a stellar Y8 play. Special mention must go too to Zac who was called upon to handle the lighting and the sound as a technical team of one. All seemed to run smoothly and if there were technical glitches, they didn’t show. As they say, ‘the show must go on’ and it did with style, panache and glow sticks! Thank you to Mrs Slade for these wonderful photos which perfectly capture the mood of the piece. Details will be shared as to how to get hold of copies. There was excitement of a different kind when Year 2 arrived at school on Wednesday to see a strange man dressed in a glittery purple hat with a cane and googly eyes standing in the car park. -
November 2019 Village Website
Results 5. ,The C NEWS Number 355 – November 2019 Village Website: www.compton-surrey.co.uk PUBLISHED BY COMPTON VILLAGE ASSOCIATION Editor: Jane Turner, Inwood House, Hog’s Back, Farnham, Surrey GU10 1HE Telephone: 01483 810789. 07763 146448. Email: [email protected] PARISH COUNCIL COMPTON PARISH COUNCIL IN THE HIGH COURT. Earlier this year, immediately before the local elections, Guildford Borough Council adopted a new Local Plan, setting out its aspirations for housing, development and other areas of local government. This plan included a proposal to build 1,800 homes on the Blackwell Farm site, much of which lies within Compton Parish and all of which is within the Metropolitan Green Belt. Compton Parish Council, after consulting through public meetings, resolved to challenge this Plan, the basis for the housing numbers, the way the inspector conducted the hearings and the manner in which it was adopted by GBC. Our advice was that the dwelling numbers (at 37% above the Council's own objective assessment of housing need) could not be justified, and the extra road traffic generated would be enormously harmful to Compton village. Our challenge, together with the challenges from two other parties, will be heard at the Law Courts in the Strand, London on Tuesday 5th, Wednesday 6th & Thursday 7th November, as a Section 113 Challenge. The hearing will be open to the public from 10.30am to 4.30pm. You are very welcome to attend and support our legal team. Mobile phones are permitted in the courtroom but you are warned that if they go off, you are liable to be in Contempt of Court so it is important to keep all devices on silent! BE ALERT! Following a recent burglary near Spiceall, it has become apparent that the perpetrators were watching the property from a car parked close by for some time before they broke in. -

Surnames L-M Porter, Johanna From: Wayne Lamport < > Sent: 27 September 2014 08:05 To: Reviews@ Subject: Objection to Woking Boundary changes Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Flagged To whom it may concern, I would like to express my objection to the draft changes to boundaries of Woking. I live in Hollies Ave in West Byfleet and under the new proposals, our road, together with Woodlands Ave and Old Ave would now come under the ward of Sheerwater. My objections are based on the following; I live approximately 800 yards from West Byfleet village/train station and under the draft proposals I will not be able to vote/have a say on matters affecting West Byfleet, which of course is totally unacceptable. The needs of the residents of Sheerwater are different to those of West Byfleet I chose to buy a house in West Byfleet, not Sheerwater and have invested a lot of money into my property and therefore I am concerned in house prices. As far as I know no‐one has undertaken any investigation on the possible effect of houses prices, again totally unacceptable. I do no believe the proposed re‐generation of Sheerwater has been taken into consideration when calculating ward sizes, therefore will totally skew the sizes of wards once the re‐generation is complete.
