The aim of the report is to assess current provision and consider all the options at various locations to gain an understanding of whether the current provision is valid or alternative options exist to create an improvement. The main focus for this study is a network of routes that run from west, east and central Southend-on-Sea, from Rochford and from Hawkwell to key trip attractors within the environs of the Joint Area Action Plan (JAAP). See map of London Southend Airport and Environs Joint Area Action plan Walking and Cycling Network. The existing cycle network in the project area continues to be improved and has become a significant local resource with many trips being made on it throughout the year. This report seeks to identify the technical issues and practicalities of creating coherent, safe, direct and comfortable additional sections that will ultimately provide access to the - Binding Margin - existing and new developments within the environs of the JAAP. The report is split into four main sections: • Introduction and background • The local context • Developing a network • Detailed route sections • Conclusion and Programme By the end of the report there will be clear outcomes as to which sections of the route should be prioritised and how to phase developments; giving strong indications as to which recommendations should feed into the masterplan for the Southend Airport Business Park site.

  • Cnut: Stability in England and Evolving Norman Connections
    Cnut: Stability in England and evolving Norman connections When we think about Cnut what immediately springs to mind is the seemingly fatuous episode when he tried to stop the tide coming in at Bosham (or wherever). Much like Æthelred II’s modern nickname ‘the Unready’ (actually Unræd (ill-counselled), it is a ‘1066 and All That’ like myth propagated for centuries. No doubt we shall return to this at the end of this paper. Cnut was born c. 990, but Cnut’s (Knútr Sweynson’s) story is prefaced by that of his father Sweyn Forkbeard (Sweyn Haraldsson), king of Denmark, and his growing ambition to take England from Æthelred II. Æthelred II had paid off the Vikings who had constantly plagued England for two centuries many times. When they raided he often gave them danegeld to go away, with the price escalating on each occasion. The underlying difficulty was that many Danes had been long settled in England, mainly in the area of the Danelaw, and having put down their roots they were not about to leave. In 1001 Æthelred thought that he could pay the raiding Vikings to stop raiding permanently , giving them what at that time was the enormous sum of £24,000. Æthelred did not gain his nickname of Unræd for nothing, as neither he nor his advisors had learnt anything about the Danes, who would either keep coming back for more or were not actually in a position to leave, having put down roots, settled and married. In 1002 he was even more ill-advised as in reaction to being told, once it was only too clear that bribery was a foolish solution: ‘……….
