  • Newbury Closed Championships Report
    NEWBURY CLOSED CHAMPIONSHIPS REPORT The biggest and best entry for several years from youngsters across West Berkshire took part in the Newbury Junior Table Tennis Championships held at Kennet Leisure Centre this weekend. The blue ribbon event the under 17 singles was won by top seed Sam Ricks from Pamber Heath who defeated Thatcham's Teifon Chamberlain the defending champion in the final. The standard of play was very high with both boys attacking well but Sam's greater consistancy saw him clinch the title in three straight games. The girls singles was won by Kennet School's Shannon Hillier who used her forehand topspin to great effect to beat Juno Randall from Tutts Clump. The Under 15 singles event was a family affair as Hermitage's Joseph Cornmell beat his younger brother Robert in the final. Robert had reached the final after squeezing past Aldermaston's Keiron Warre in five games in the semi. Robert Cornmell made up for this in the Under 13 singles as he retained the cup with Newbury's Tom Lewis the runner up. In the Under 11's Hungerford's Tom Kelly who practices at Inkpen Table Tennis Club emerged as the victor with Thatcham's Ben Haines the runner up. The doubles events were closely contested and there was an upset in the final of the junior doubles when Basingstoke's Michael Jones combined with Keiron Warre to defeat the favourites Sam Ricks and Sam Goodyer in five games after being 2 - 1 down. Warre also picked up the Langley Cup awarded by the tournament organiser for his positive attitude during the day.

  • Full Council 25Th January 2021 Agenda Item No.: 17Iii REGULATION 18 CONSULTATION on the EMERGING DRAFT of the WEST BERKSHIRE
    Full Council 25th January 2021 Agenda Item No.: 17iii REGULATION 18 CONSULTATION ON THE EMERGING DRAFT OF THE WEST BERKSHIRE LOCAL PLAN REVIEW TO 2037 Initial draft response to the consultation, prepared by Councillor Lister, Leader of the Council. This document is a work in progress. We note that the Sustainability Assessment is an interim document and separate comments are sought. Our feedback to the Sustainability Assessment is included in our response to the Local Plan, policy SP 17, as advised by West Berkshire Officers. Section 1.4 • "contribute to the achievement of sustainable development … such that the right development happens in the right place at the right time benefiting communities and the economy. We acknowledge the needs for sustainable development and the importance of selecting the right place, at the right time. There are different pressures on communities - ensuring 'viable villages' in rural areas is as important as respecting the limits to growth in more urbanised areas that may be constrained by geography or through limits on infrastructure. Where infrastructure is constraining growth in one area then it is necessary to consider growth in other areas. Section 1.12 • "the Local Plan will replace in one document the three documents listed above" We welcome the merger of the 3 documents as this should enable West Berkshire Council to articulate a clear strategic vision for the district. This must align with sustainable growth that takes into account the challenge of moving towards a net-zero carbon. We are unclear on the status of the Sustainability Appraisal, in which an interim version has been published.

  • Roman Berkshire Jill Greenaway November 2006
    1 Solent- Thames Research Framework Roman Berkshire Jill Greenaway November 2006 In the Roman period, the area that is now Berkshire was part of the civitas of the Atrebates whose administrative centre lay at Calleva, the Roman town near Silchester in Hampshire. This civitas was a Roman creation. The modern county boundary between Berkshire and Hampshire kinks around the Silchester area and it would be interesting to investigate whether this preserves an ancient land boundary. Roman Berkshire is therefore part of an entity that includes Hampshire, which lies within the Solent-Thames study area, but also east Wiltshire and west Surrey which lie outside it. Berkshire in the Roman period cannot be fully understood without reference to the whole of the civitas, particularly when looking at hierarchical settlement patterns. Most of the Roman small towns, for example Mildenhall (Cunetio), Wanborough (Durocornovium), Dorchester and Staines (Pontes), are outside the modern county boundary but must have influenced the area that is now Berkshire. Today the area is a mix of urban and rural settlements and many sites have been damaged both through urban development and intensive farming. Clay pits, gravel pits and road building have added to the destruction of the historic environment the pace of which has increased during the last fifty years. Recording of the sites so destroyed was somewhat piecemeal until the advent of PPG16 and developer funded archaeology but even with a more planned approach to investigation and recording, the resulting distribution has reflected areas of development and to some extent has followed the pattern of previously known sites.

  • Solent Thames Berkshire Mesolithic Draft
    Thames and Solent Research Framework The Upper Palaeolithic and Mesolithic of Berkshire Dr Catherine Chisham, Wessex Archaeology July 2006 1. Chronology Berkshire, and in particular the middle Kennet Valley, is known for its high concentration of Upper Palaeolithic to Early Mesolithic remains. The Final Upper Palaeolithic is strongly represented, with sites typified by assemblages with large backed blades, some showing heavy edge-damage or “bruising”, known as long blades or bruised blades (Barton 1986, 1989, 1991). Long blade sites include Avington VI (Froom 1970, 2005; Barton and Froom 1986; Barton 1989; Barton et al. 1998), Wawcott XII (Froom 1970, 2005) and Crown Acres (Campbell 1977; Barton 1986; Froom 2005). Mesolithic material has been found in the vicinity of all three, but was stratified only at Avington, where a Late Mesolithic horizon was found above the Palaeolithic. There is no known site in the Kennet Valley with a stratified sequence of Upper Palaeolithic to Early Mesolithic material nor transitional material specifically identified. However, there is some slight evidence for a stratigraphic and chronological split at Crown Acres, on the basis of past descriptions and the patination of liths characteristic of both periods, Barton (1986, p84) suggested that while both assemblages underlay the peat, the earlier material came from sandy marl, which at Thatcham, stratigraphically underlies the Mesolithic levels. The only absolute date for Upper Palaeolithic activity in Berkshire is for Avington VI, with an optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) date for the occupation horizon of 10,250±1,100 (Ox-1523b) (Barton et al. 1998). Dating of the Mesolithic of Berkshire has been focussed on a few large sites, and is summarised in [Table #1] , with a range from 10,365±170 BP (10,900-9,700 cal BC, Q-659, Wymer 1962) at Thatcham III to 5260±130 BP (4360-3780 cal BC, BM-449, Froom 1972) at Wawcott (Lobb and Rose 1996).
