STOKE UPON TERN NEWSLETTER Issue STOKE UPON TERN NEWSLETTER Issue: 20 Congratulations to Dick Henneman, winner of the photography category at Wistanswick Fete. Keeping in touch with communities within the local parish. September 2018 1 Welcome to this autumn edition of our parish magazine. As a reminder the parish covers five rural villages, Stoke upon Tern, Stoke Heath, Wistanswick, Eaton-upon-Tern and Ollerton. Please feel free to send us any news or articles from around the parish. To contact us: email: [email protected] or call Sue: 01630 638 348 WISTANSWICK FETE 2018 Once again, the Wistanswick Fete & Horse & Pony Show proved to be an amazing event. We were overwhelmed by the support and attendance this year and as always, raised a lot of money towards new windows for the Institute and many more community benefits. We would like to thank so many people and couldn’t do it on an individual basis but a massive ‘shout out’ to all our volunteers, who worked tirelessly to bring the whole thing together once more. This continues throughout the year in readiness for the following fete and involves so many people giving up their own time to ensure it all goes smoothly. A great big, heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you, you are brilliant! Finally, with the addition of the Pimms stall and the Sweet stand, we were able to offer something a little different this year and will continue to add to this in the future. If you have any suggestions, please get in touch. Without any doubt, the success of this event is always shown by the wonderful people who attend. This year, we had an even bigger crowd and could barely keep up on the BBQ, which was fantastic! The Wistanswick Fete committee would like to thank everyone who attended and joined in on the many activities we had through the fields. Without you all, this would not happen and is the reason we continue on with this fabulous event. Once again, thank you to you all – Jackie Jefferies & the Fete Committee. 2 Stoke upon Tern Parish Council COUNCIL MEMBERS - The next parish meetings will take place at the Parish Hall on the Cllr Pete Waters (Chairman) - 01630 638911 12th September, Cllr Keith Newby – 01952 541601 14th November & 12th December Cllr Richard Wright – 01630 638520 @ 7.30pm, Cllr David Moore – 01630 685226 Cllr Sue Bartram – 01630 638348 These meetings are open to everyone – come along and have Cllr Sarah Planton – 01630 638494 Cllr Percy Farmer - 01952 541252 your say...

This provides local policies with which to help manage new development in the local area. Shropshire Council are now consulting on this Plan until 25th September 2018. Publication and consultation of the Neighbourhood Plan You can now have your say on the submitted version of the neighbourhood plan by going to http://shropshire.gov.uk/get-involved/stoke-upon-tern- neighbourhood-plan/ Hard copies of the Stoke upon Tern Neighbourhood Plan are available at the following locations for inspection during normal opening hours: Shropshire Council, Shirehall, Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury, SY2 6ND, or Stoke Upon Tern Village Hall, Stoke Upon Tern, TF9 2DU. Notification As part of your representation, you can request to be notified of the council’s decision on whether to adopt the neighbourhood plan under Regulation 19 of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) (Amendment) Regulations 2015. Next steps Following the consultation, the council will collate and submit all the responses received and send these to the appointed examiner, along with the submitted documents so that the plan can be examined. Following the examination, the appointed examiner will produce a report and recommend whether or not the plan can be put to a public referendum. The council must then consider the report and make a decision on whether to put the plan to public referendum or refuse it. If agreed, the council will arrange a referendum. If more than 50% of the votes at the referendum are in favour of the plan it will form part of Shropshire Council’s Local Development Plan.

  • Rural Settlement List 2014
    National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

  • An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
    An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.
