  • South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group
    COUNCIL SIZE SUBMISSION South Gloucestershire South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group. February 2017 Overview of South Gloucestershire 1. South Gloucestershire is an affluent unitary authority on the North and East fringe of Bristol. South Gloucestershire Council (SGC) was formed in 1996 following the dissolution of Avon County Council and the merger of Northavon District and Kingswood Borough Councils. 2. South Gloucestershire has around 274,700 residents, 62% of which live in the immediate urban fringes of Bristol in areas including Kingswood, Filton, Staple Hill, Downend, Warmley and Bradley Stoke. 18% live in the market towns of Thornbury, Yate, and Chipping Sodbury. The remaining 20% live in rural Gloucestershire villages such as Marshfield, Pucklechurch, Hawkesbury Upton, Oldbury‐ on‐Severn, Alveston, and Charfield. 3. South Gloucestershire has lower than average unemployment (3.3% against an England average of 4.8% as of 2016), earns above average wages (average weekly full time wage of £574.20 against England average of £544.70), and has above average house prices (£235,000 against England average of £218,000)1. Deprivation 4. Despite high employment and economic outputs, there are pockets of deprivation in South Gloucestershire. Some communities suffer from low income, unemployment, social isolation, poor housing, low educational achievement, degraded environment, access to health services, or higher levels of crime than other neighbourhoods. These forms of deprivation are often linked and the relationship between them is so strong that we have identified 5 Priority Neighbourhoods which are categorised by the national Indices of Deprivation as amongst the 20% most deprived neighbourhoods in England and Wales. These are Cadbury Heath, Kingswood, Patchway, Staple Hill, and west and south Yate/Dodington.

  • The Old Pewter at the Fleece Inn at Bretforton
    THE OLD PEWTER AT THE FLEECE INN AT BRETFORTON After the first two photos (from the Pewter Society notice of a Summer meeting in June 2017) and the Wikipedia copied detail there follows the information Jan Gadd had in his papers without an article being written – or the information being assembled in some order for publication - (as far as known). Thus, this article is here to inform collectors of an unusual display of old pewter in at a charming location and to bring to light research by Jan Gadd in 1999. FROM WIKIPEDIA The Fleece Inn is a public house in Bretforton, in the Vale of Evesham, Worcestershire, England: the half-timbered building, over six hundred years old, has been a pub since 1848, and is now owned by the National Trust. The inn was extensively damaged by fire on 27 February 2004, and after repairs and rebuilding were completed the Fleece officially reopened on 18 June 2005. The pub holds an annual asparagus festival asparagus and auction while there are three Morris sides based at the pub: Pebworth, Belle d'Vain and Asum Gras. There is a regular folk night plus concerts and weddings in the medieval barn. Owned by the National Trust, The Fleece Inn was originally built in the early 15th century as a longhouse (an early type of farmhouse accommodating both livestock and humans) by a prosperous yeoman farmer called Byrd. It later became a pub, which was rebuilt in the 17th century and remained in the Byrd family until 1977, when Lola Taplin bequeathed it to the National Trust.

  • England Summer 2018
    England Summer 2018 Bob and Molly As is usual on our extended visits to England, we spend our time in our Nephew’s flat in Ilkley and essentially spend our days in much the same way as we do when we are in Mason. In addition, we take advantage of the many excellent restaurants and enjoy the change of pace that a small town provides. Molly reverts to her “England-style”, and shops almost every day; walking down into the town, getting provisions sufficient for a day or two and then takes advantage of the hourly bus service to get back up the steep hill to the apartment. Bob usually goes for a walk or, weather per- mitting, a bike ride—both very enjoyable forms of exer- cise in some beautiful countryside. We also spend a lot of time with family and friends. Consequently, our routine doesn’t demand much cover- age in our journal and the daily “diary” is used merely as a reminder of the events—many of which are repeated day after day. We do, however, spend some time that we feel merits a little more coverage and it is that which com- prises the bulk of our journal. This summer was no ex- ception and, in fact, included several “adventures” that we cover here and that might provide readers with some- thing of interest. In fact, this six weeks seemed to fly by and we felt that we had packed a lot into our stay. So, while the daily diary is included as an Appendix for our records, the bulk of the journal deals with those more “out of the ordinary” events.

  • Thursday 5Th April. Amcor to Hawkesbury Upton. Report from Bill Balchin: It Must Be Really Difficult to Write an Original Song W
    Thursday 5th April. Amcor to Hawkesbury Upton. Report from Bill Balchin: It must be really difficult to write an original song without upsetting somebody who claims that you have copied some elements of their lyric or music. Many copyright claims are settled with large sums involved. Famous examples include George Harrison's "My Sweet Lord" and the Chiffons' "He's So Fine"; Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" and Marvin Gaye's "Got To Give It Up". (OK Bill we get the picture - Ed). And more recently Ed Sheeran's "Photograph and Matt Cardles "Amazing". (Just get on with it NOW - Ed). Luckily we have no such problems in the BTOTC with making up routes otherwise I would owe Martyn a double whammy. First for the technique of using regular homeward routes for the outward section and second for reminding me about Winterbourne Down (which Mike Sennett also used successfully last month but with all different lanes). There was a crowd of well over twenty assembled at the Amcor start under blue skies, having ridden there on dry roads with light winds. A fantastic turnaround in the weather and looking good for today's cycling. There was to be an easier route led by Steve and Don but the plan for my lot was to ride up to Winterbourne and then drop down Dragon Road, over the Frome and around Bury Hill. Many may be unaware of a hidden gem at Bury Hill - an iron age hilltop fort. You know what a fort is - big square construction of vertical timbers with a gate in one wall and towers at each corner.

  • Katharine Lady Berkeley's School
    A Brief Outline of the School’s History, Aims, Intake and Examination Results History Katharine Lady Berkeley’s School was founded on 20 October 1384 by Katharine, the wife of Lord Berkeley, in order to support the education of two local scholars. Since that date, the school has operated continuously to support the education of secondary age pupils in Wotton-under-Edge and the surrounding areas. The school moved into buildings in School Lane in Wotton-under-Edge in 1726 and remained there, with various additions until the end of 1962. In 1961, the erection of a new building for 350 pupils on the present site in Kingswood Road was started and in January 1963, Katharine Lady Berkeley's Grammar School vacated the premises in the town and moved into the new buildings. Extensions to the Kingswood Road buildings began in 1972 and they were completed for the start of the Autumn term in 1973 when Wotton Secondary School joined the Grammar School to be re-opened as a comprehensive school for 830 pupils. Additional accommodation has been added to the school over the last 25 years with a major additional build completed in September 2000 to provide 12 new classrooms, 3 Science laboratories and a new school library. New Music accommodation was completed in Summer 2003 and further building work to replace two existing temporary classrooms and to provide two additional rooms was completed in September 2004. While new buildings have not been added since that date, all windows, roofing and other work has been carried out to ensure that the fabric of the school is in good condition.
