    THE NORTH STAR CHRONICLES – a newsletter primarily for the model railway fraternity Volume 6 no 5 May 2018 Editor: David Cairns e-mail: [email protected] Website for back copies: [email protected] Phone: +27 82 653 5642 Editorial This month’s North Star Chronicles is a bit of a cheat insofar as the primary feature is the Isle of Man and the meat of the article thereon was written while I was editor of the Workbench, the newsletter of the Durban Society of Model Engineers. In my defence I cite the fact that I was away for much of April so time to draft a new NSC was limited. Be that as it may, the subject is dear to my heart. For those interested in railways, particularly steam operated narrow gauge ones, and tramlines, and who are looking for a prototype to model which runs on either 32mm or 45mm track, look no further. I highly recommend a visit to the Island. One piece of advice, do so in the British ‘summer’ and take an umbrella and raincoat. It rains a lot on the Isle of Man! The Isle of Man Located in the middle of the Irish Sea, from the top of the highest ‘mountain’ (formerly accessible by tram) on a clear day the 4 home countries of Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Island are visible. The Isle of Man was originally settled by Celts and Vikings. It is difficult to find the exact words to describe the island but time capsule is certainly apt with respect to some of its transport facilities.

  • Groudle Glen, One of the Island’S Best Known Tourist Attractions, Doesn’T Have Many Buildings – but Almost the Whole Glen Has Been Shaped by the Hand of Man
    14 ISLE OF MAN EXAMINER www.iomtoday.co.im Tuesday, June 6, 2017 BUILDINGS AT RISK Where there’s a wheel there’s a way ... Groudle Glen, one of the Island’s best known tourist attractions, doesn’t have many buildings – but almost the whole glen has been shaped by the hand of man. Chris Callow, an undergraduate student of history & heritage at University College Isle of Man, describes the history of the glen and its buildings, and how both are at risk. roudle glen to- day is a popular spot for walkers, who probably don’t stop to ponder how such a well-wood- Ged area came into being. It is down to one of the giants of the island’s Victorian tour- ist industry, Richard Maltby Broadbent. Born at Bibaloe Beg in On- chan in 1850, Broadbent be- came engaged in extensive property development in Douglas, notably constructing and operating the Pavilion on Harris Promenade, famously replaced by the Gaiety Theatre which has survived to this day, thanks to Government inter- vention in 1971. So successful was Broad- bent that in 1894 he commis- sioned Mackay Hugh Baillie Richard Maltby Broadbent (Manx Musuem) Scott to design his home Ivy- dene at Little Switzerland, Douglas. Much information about the early family came to light recently when the cur- rent owner of Ivydene discov- ered in the loft and restored to RMB’s great-grandsons the Broadbent family bible. Broadbent worked closely with Frederick Saunderson, a civil engineer responsible for early property development in Ramsey, who was also closely associated with Baillie Scott.

    Area Plan for the East: Draft Plan Audit of Community Facilities 25th May 2018 Evidence Paper No. DP EP6 Cabinet Office Contents Introduction Page 2 Methodology Page 2 Recommendations Page 2 Tables Page 3 Amenity Open Space Page 3 Children’s Play Areas Page 5 Sports Pitches Page 7 Other Sports Facilities Page 9 Education and Child Care Page 10 Arts Community and Culture Page 12 Emergency Services and Healthcare Page 13 Places of Worship and Burial Land Page 15 1 Evidence Paper: Audit of Community Facilities Introduction This Evidence Paper will identify and quantify community facilities in the East, assess the provisions in each local authority area and make recommendations to inform the Draft Area Plan for the East. What are community facilities? Community Facilities are essential to everyday life; Schools, Community Centres, Post Offices and the Emergency Services. They form an essential network of support and are basic requirements for the underpinning of sustainable communities. Without basic services, communities tend to lack a sense of belonging and places tend to be little more than groups or estates of housing. Many of the schools in the East contribute towards indoor and outdoor sports provision and halls can be multi-purpose out of school hours. Methodology The facilities were identified through a variety of methods. Most facilities are listed within Governments or Local Authority’s web pages. However, smaller sites that are not listed online and those that are relatively new or used informally were identified through local knowledge and satellite images. For Outdoor Recreation Facilities their areas have been measured for the purpose of bench marking against the targets set out within the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016.
