Frampton on Severn Lies on the East Bank of the River Severn Approximately Ten Miles South of Gloucester

Frampton on Severn lies on the east bank of the river Severn approximately ten miles south of Gloucester. With a population of around 1200, it is the largest village in the Berkeley Vale and boasts the longest village green in England. Reputedly this was used as a practice area for medieval bowmen, was the site of a parliamentary garrison in 1643 and the local militia, formed in 1795 to combat the threat of invasion by Napoleon, regularly drilled up and down its half mile length. FRAMPTON REMEMBERS WW1 has been inspired by the Gloucestershire Remembers WW1 project. We shall look at the effects of the Great War on our village and its inhabitants by drawing on extensive archives from a number of public sources. We will combine these with the private records of the many families whose connections with the village are still maintained. THE WAR EFFORT Chocolate was considered to be a great morale booster during WW1. Cadbury Bros Ltd opened a factory in Frampton on Severn in 1916 which helped to produce chocolate for the soldiers in the trenches. Cadburys started up a number of recreational and sporting clubs in the village, many of which still exist today. German prisoners of war extracted gravel, making some into concrete building blocks. One of these became a memorial to a colleague who died. Gravel from Frampton was also used in the construction of Chepstow dockyard during the war. The gravel pits are now lakes which are designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest for their varied wildlife and habitat. SCHOOL LIFE The death of our pupil teacher, Frederick Robert Hitchings, was a bitter blow to those at school.

Stroud Labour Party

Gloucestershire County Council single member ward review Response from Stroud Constituency Labour Party Introduction On 30 November the Local Government Boundary Commission started its second period of consultation for a pattern of divisions for Gloucestershire. Between 30 November and 21 February the Commission is inviting comments on the division boundaries for GCC. Following the completion of its initial consultation, the Commission has proposed that the number of county councillors should be reduced from 63 to 53. The districts have provided the estimated numbers for the electorate in their areas in 2016; the total number for the county is 490,674 so that the average electorate per councillor would be 9258 (cf. 7431 in 2010). The main purpose of this note is to draw attention to the constraints imposed on proposals for a new pattern of divisions in Stroud district, which could lead to anomalies, particularly in ‘bolting together’ dissimilar district wards and parishes in order to meet purely numerical constraints. In it own words ‘the Commission aims to recommend a pattern of divisions that achieves good electoral equality, reflects community identities and interests and provides for effective and convenient local government. It will also seek to use strong, easily-identifiable boundaries. ‘Proposals should demonstrate how any pattern of divisions aids the provision of effective and convenient local government and why any deterioration in equality of representation or community identity should be accepted. Representations that are supported by evidence and argument will carry more weight with the Commission than those which merely assert a point of view.’ While a new pattern of ten county council divisions is suggested in this note, it is not regarded as definitive but does contain ways of avoiding some possible major anomalies.

The Introduction of the Tin-Plate Industry to the Lower Wye Valley and the Newerne Valley of the Forest of Dean

Reprinted from: Gloucestershire Society for Industrial Archaeology Journal for 2003 pages 3-9 THE INTRODUCTION OF THE TIN-PLATE INDUSTRY TO THE LOWER WYE VALLEY AND THE NEWERNE VALLEY OF THE FOREST OF DEAN. Pat Morris Even a fairly cursory examination of the details given in the censuses of 1841 and 1851 for Lydney shows that there were very many incomers among the Lydney residents. The biggest group of incomers were those working at the iron and tin plate works in 1851. The population of Lydney, and particularly the number of employees of the tin plate works, increased appreciably between 1841 and 1851. The significance of these works for the growth of Lydney between those dates was evident. Relatively little published material about the early period of that industry’s growth could be found. Much more of what is available relates to the late 19th century Richard Thomas ownership. This study originated in an attempt to find more about the growth of the Lydney tin works in the early period, the origins of its employees, their skills and the dynamics of their settlement in and impact on Lydney. The Development of Tin Works in the Forest of Dean Lydney’s iron industry was long established and particularly significant in the 17th century, but Lydney was not one of the early sites of the tin plate industry. A very interesting sequence of the spread of tin plating around the lower Severn becomes apparent. In South Wales tin plate making was established in Pontypool and Kidwelly in the early 18th century.(1) Rowland Pytt, in 1731 described as of Lydney, ironmaster, took the lease of Ynys- y-gerwn tin works near Aberdulais, Glam.
Severn Estuary Scrutiny Task Group

SEVERN ESTUARY SCRUTINY TASK GROUP 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The task group was set up following concerns raised by Councillors Tony Blackburn, Basil Booth and Martin Quaile at the Environment Scrutiny Committee in September 2011. They highlighted the concerns of the local community at proposals published by the Environment Agency as part of its Severn Estuary Flood Risk Management Strategy in January 2011. 1.2 The role of the task group was to contribute to the Environment Agency’s emerging plans for managing flood risk on the Severn Estuary to ensure that they: a) Provided a balance between the strategic land use priorities of farmland and wildlife habitat. b) Considered the practical issues for communities (including farmers and local residents) relating to insurance and marketability and how these can be mitigated. 1.3 The group also considered critical infrastructure issues, particularly relating to roads and schools, relevant to Gloucestershire County Council. 2 BACKGROUND 2.1 Membership of the task group 2.1.1 Councillors Tony Hicks (chairman), Tony Blackburn, Dr John Cordwell, Bill Crowther and Martin Quaile. 2.1.2 Councillors Dr Cordwell and Quaile declared personal interests as members of the Severn Estuary Partnership. 1 2.2 Who did we speak to? 2.2.1 After holding an initial scene setting meeting, a day long session was held on Tuesday, 29 November. The following organisations and groups were represented on the day: o Environment Agency o County councillors – Cllr Basil Booth (Berkeley Vale) and Cllr Phil Awford (Severn Vale) o Parish councils – Alvington, Arlingham, Elmore, Frampton-on-Severn, Fretherne with Saul, Longney and Epney, Minsterworth and Westbury-on- Severn o Severn Voice – association of Severnside parish councils (on the Stroud side of the estuary) o National Farmers’ Union o Lower Severn Internal Drainage Board o Natural England o Stroud District Council o Gloucester City Council 2.2.2 They were asked questions on the concerns of local residents and what they would like to happen next.
Marine Safety in the Severn Estuary & Lower

Marine Safety in the Severn Estuary & Lower Wye A Guide to Safe Navigation for Small Craft and Notes for River Bank Users (Updated May 2017) INTRODUCTION TO THE SEVERN ESTUARY The Severn Estuary can be a dangerous place, with shifting sands, a rapid rise of tide and strong tidal currents. Those who use the estuary need to be aware of the dangers and ready to deal with them safely. Since 1889 the Gloucester Harbour Trustees have regulated navigation and provided aids in the estuary to assist in the safe passage of all craft, whether commercial shipping or sailing dinghies. We have produced this guide to help all users of the estuary to understand the hazards and to know what to look out for, what to avoid and how to respond in an emergency. We hope that the information will be a useful contribution to the continued safe use of the estuary. The Gloucester Harbour is the formal name given to a defined area for which the Gloucester Harbour Trustees is the conservancy, harbour and local lighthouse authority. This area includes the River Severn and its estuary, extending from the Maisemore and Llanthony weirs near Gloucester, to lines seaward of the Second Severn Crossing. The River Wye as far as Bigsweir Bridge also falls within this area. 2 INDEX TO SECTIONS 1 General Safety Considerations 2 General Advice to Vessels 3 Tidal Considerations 4 Safety of Small Craft and Canal Craft 5 Conduct of Vessels 6 The River Severn between the Second Severn Crossing and Sharpness Dock 7 The River Severn between Sharpness Dock and Gloucester 8 The River
