  • Nickey Line Greenspace Action Plan 2019 – 2024
    NICKEY LINE GREENSPACE ACTION PLAN 2019 – 2024 Produced by: On behalf of: OVERVIEW Greenspace Action Plans Greenspace Actions Plans (GAPs) are map-based management plans which specify activities that should take place on a site over a stated period of time; these activities will help to deliver the agreed aspirations which the site managers and stakeholders have identified for that site. Public Engagement Engagement with stakeholders is at the centre of effective management planning on any site. An initial engagement period was held for five weeks in December 2017 and January 2018, to establish core aims and objectives for the site; these are reflected in Section 3. This plan has been produced for a second stage of engagement to enable stakeholders to comment on the proposed management actions for the site. Coordination with St Albans City & District Council As the Nickey Line leaves from Hemel Hempstead towards Redbourn, it crosses into the St Albans District Council (SADC) administrative area. A GAP is already in place for the St Albans section. The programme of works for the Dacorum section has been produced to complement the programme in the St Albans section. A coordinated approach will be taken wherever practical to deliver projects jointly to ensure continuity across the administrative boundary.

  • Making a Canal Nelson's Victory at Trafalgar May Have Given Britain
    Talk 4: Making a Canal Nelson’s victory at Trafalgar may have given Britain sea superiority, but it hardly affected Napoleon’s military position in continental Europe. Five years on and the Emperor could still marshal an army of half a million men for an invasion of Russia, but there he met with unparalleled defeat. After Borodino the largest and bloodiest battle of the Napoleonic wars, the invasion faltered and then turned into a terrible retreat. As snippets of news about the retreat from Moscow reached London Sir Thomas Bernard and Colonel John Drinkwater attended a small ceremony in Regents Park. We might imagine each man turned over a little soil before handing the spade to someone more adept in its use. Perhaps a few proprietors watched the event, wondering how long it would be before they could attend another ceremony, this time to celebrate the completion of the project in which they had invested. And also speculating as to how they might be affected by the demise of Napoleon. Anyone taking a cursory look at a map on which the line of the Regents Canal had been drawn might think construction would be as simple as digging the Grand Junction branch canal, but closer inspection of a cross sectional drawing showed it would be far more complicated. For a start three tunnels were needed. One was hardly bigger than a wide bridge, but the other two, the first at Maida Hill and the second at Islington, were substantial undertakings. Then there was the fall from Paddington to Limehouse, 86 feet in all, which would demand the construction of 12 locks.

  • Chilterns Cycleway Off-Road Sections; Alternative Road Routes (Last Updated 3Rd May 2013)
    Chilterns Cycleway off-road sections; alternative road routes (last updated 3rd May 2013) 1) The main off-road section is from Pirton to just south of Little Offley, following a bridleway which has really deteriorated over the winter and is in very poor condition at the moment (large ruts and potholes). This is approximately 4km (2.5 miles) in length. We would not recommend cycling along the B655, it is a fast road with poor sightlines. The safest alternative is to take the minor road south of Higham Gobion to Great Offley (ie missing out the Apsley End/Pirton section of the route). 2) Section of the Grand Union Canal through Berkhamsted Follow the road parallel to the High Street (named Charles Street, off the A416, or Granville Road at the Northchurch end) 3) Section through the Ashridge Estate along Duncombe Terrace (from the Monument and visitor centre to the road near Ivinghoe), about 3km. Some of this is a good hard surface (designed for mobility scooters), but there are some sections near Ivinghoe with a softer surface. There is a good alternative on the B4506 Ringshall Road as shown below. 4) The Chilterns Cycleway follows the Chiltern Heritage Trail through Chesham, the surfacing for this is fairly good but there sections which can be uneven or slightly rutted, particularly after rain. The alternative road is busy (and there are some rather large pot-holes in places at time of writing) but takes you directly into Chesham. From Chesham follow the A416 Amersham road, re-joining the Cycleway at Amersham.
