Members Present: Councillor Nigel Avey (Epping Forest District Council) Councillor Michael Danvers (Harlow District Council) Councillor Richard Van Dulken (Braintree District Council) Councillor Deryk Eke (Uttlesford District Council) Councillor Mike Lilley (Colchester Borough Council) (Deputy Chairman) Councillor Robert Mitchell (Essex County Council) (Chairman) Substitutions: None.

Have Your Say! Dr Andrea Fejős and Professor Christopher Willett attended and, with the permission of the Chairman, addressed the meeting to ask that proposed Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) T29664816 [Manor Road, Colchester] be approved. Although the TRO had been recommended for rejection by Colchester Borough Council, due to lack of local support, Dr Fejős argued that the Committee could still approve it. The TRO had been requested by Dr Fejős and Professor Willett in order to stop vehicles parking in front of a flat’s front window which they noted was the only alternative exit/fire escape for the property. It would prevent such parking and involve moving the parking space to further along the road, on the opposite side of the road.

  • A Short History of Colchester Castle
    Colchester Borough Council Colchester and Ipswich Museum Service A SHORT HISTORY OF COLCHESTER CASTLE 1066, the defeat of the English by the invading army of Duke William of Normandy. After his victory at the Battle of Hastings, William strengthened his hold on the defeated English by ordering castles to be built throughout the country. Colchester was chosen for its port and its important military position controlling the southern access to East Anglia. In 1076 work began on Colchester Castle, the first royal stone castle to be built by William in England. The castle was built around the ruins of the colossal Temple of Claudius using the Roman temple vaults as its base, parts of which can be seen to this day. As a result the castle is the largest ever built by the Normans. It was constructed mainly of building material from Colchester's Roman ruins with some imported stone. Most of the red brick in the castle was taken from Roman buildings. England, William's newly won possession, was soon under threat from another invader, King Cnut of Denmark. The castle had only been built to first floor level when it had to be hastily strengthened with battlements. The invasion never came and work resumed on the castle which was finally completed to three or four storeys in 1125. The castle came under attack in 1216 when it was besieged for three months and eventually captured by King John after he broke his agreement with the rebellious nobles (Magna Carta). By 1350, however, its military importance had declined and the building was mainly used as a prison.
