The Golden Arrow © Gordon Dickens 1 Introduction Shropshire possesses one of the richest and most varied landscapes of any of the English counties. It offers a diverse range of scenery: from the lakes and rolling pasturelands around Ellesmere in the north, to the gaunt moorlands of the Clee Hills, with their stark industrial ruins, in the south; the densely wooded scarps of Wenlock Edge; or the straight, sandy lanes of the north-eastern heathlands, with their large arable fields and ‘big skys’.

  • The Classification of Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age Copper and Bronze Axe-Heads from Southern Britain
    The Classification of Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age Copper and Bronze Axe-heads from Southern Britain Stuart Needham Access Archaeology aeopr ch es r s A A y c g c e o l s o s e A a r c Ah About Access Archaeology Access Archaeology offers a different publishing model for specialist academic material that might traditionally prove commercially unviable, perhaps due to its sheer extent or volume of colour content, or simply due to its relatively niche field of interest. All Access Archaeology publications are available in open-access e-pdf format and in (on-demand) print format. The open-access model supports dissemination in areas of the world where budgets are more severely limited, and also allows individual academics from all over the world the chance to access the material privately, rather than relying solely on their university or public library. Print copies, nevertheless, remain available to individuals and institutions who need or prefer them. The material is professionally refereed, but not peer reviewed. Copy-editing takes place prior to submission of the work for publication and is the responsibility of the author. Academics who are able to supply print- ready material are not charged any fee to publish (including making the material available in open-access). In some instances the material is type-set in-house and in these cases a small charge is passed on for layout work. This model works for us as a publisher because we are able to publish specialist work with relatively little editorial investment. Our core effort goes into promoting the material, both in open-access and print, where Access Archaeology books get the same level of attention as our core peer-reviewed imprint by being included in marketing e-alerts, print catalogues, displays at academic conferences and more, supported by professional distribution worldwide.

This year the figure has been brought O down to 416, which is 7.8% of the national total of 5,290. While we work to decrease the overall numbers we do, unfortunately, have to add individual sites each year and recognise the challenge posed by a number of long-standing cases. We look to identify opportunities to focus resources on these tough cases. This year we have grant-aided some £1.5m of conservation repairs, Management Agreements and capacity building, covering a wide range of sites.

This section is published electronically, and can be downloaded at www.shropshirehillsaonb.co.uk/Mgtplan09-14.htm. KEY ASSETS – QUALITY OF LIFE Quality of Life Tranquillity Tranquillity is one of the less tangible and measurable assets of the AONB, but is nevertheless very significant in the way people value the area. CPRE has led the way recently in assessing this elusive quality. Their interpretation of tranquillity is the absence of inappropriate noise, development and perception of visual intrusion. The methodology 14 therefore includes assessing a range of objective factors such as levels of noise, light pollution and visual presence of man-made structures, as well as more subjective factors of people’s perception, including apparent naturalness and encounters with other people. Current status CPRE’s 'tranquillity map' of England shows that the Shropshire Hills AONB is very significant in a regional and local context, and that the AONB closely corresponds with areas identified as more tranquil. At a national scale, the Shropshire Hills and Marches area generally are significant, along with larger areas of the north and south-west

We are putting together Council Tax Bill plans for Shropshire that are bold and far-reaching to ensure Shropshire remains a 2019 to 2020 great place to visit, to work and to do business. Since taking over as Leader of the Council two years ago, my priority has been to focus on economic regeneration, raising income, becoming more commercial and efficient and ensuring Shropshire gets its fair share of funding. Creating a sustainable future for Shropshire is not something that can be achieved overnight, this is a long-term strategy involving some difficult decisions and dealing 2 with changes that are beyond our control. 2019/20 is the second year of a five-year plan set out in our Financial Strategy. The years ahead are expected to provide many challenges for the Council. We know our population is aging with needs growing ever more complex as time goes on, yet we understand our duty to provide the best care that we can afford for the people of Shropshire. We estimate that the cost of Adult Social Care will rise by £8.8m in 2019/20. Demographic demands in Children’s Services have seen a step change over the last two years and safeguarding our younger population has proved difficult to manage financially since 2017/18.
