  • The Bustling Alexander
    The Bustling Alexander by Les Gilpin Reproduced from “Cumbrian Railways” Vol 4 No 6 October 1989 by kind permission of the author In Cumbrian Railways, Vol 3, No 15, I told the story of John Brogden, his rise in the business world and his place in Cumbrian railway history. His second son, Alexander, also played his part in the county’s industrial and railway history. Alexander Brogden (Alex to the family and friends) was born on 3rd November 1825 in Manchester. After early education with Mr Hoole of Blackburn and at the New College in Manchester, he went on to study at Kings College, London. Here he obtained a first prize in mathematics. He had intended to follow a career at the Bar but, after spending his spare time away from college looking after the books in his father’s London office, he became a partner in the family firm of John Brogden & Sons. The original partners, at its establishment in 1846, were John (the father), John junior, Alexander and Henry (the sons). Alex’s early responsibilities largely involved the supervision of the company’s railway construction contracts. These are known to have included the Altrincham branch of the Manchester South Junction & Altrincham Railway, the Ashton branch of the LNWR and sections of the East Lancashire Railway around Accrington. His move into railway management took place in 1850. In that year John Robinson McClean, the engineer, leased the South Staffordshire Railway. O.P. Neele, who worked on this line, commented in his autobiography “Railway Reminiscences” that soon after the McClean takeover John Brogden, together with two of his sons, appeared at the company offices in Walsall.

  • Community Consultation
    Core Strategy and Development Management Policies Statement of Consultation - Submission October 2012 2 Contents The consultation and involvement process Page 5 Annex 1: Consolidated list of representors 8 Annex 2: Regulation 20 (pre-submission publication) 11 Representations made under Regulation 20 25 (publication consultation, May/July 2012) Annex 4: Regulation 18 (‘Preferred Options’) stage 139 Annex 5: Regulation 18 (‘Issues and Options’) stage 214 Annex 6: Statement of Community Involvement (summary) 235 3 4 The consultation and involvement process The Statement of Community Involvement This was adopted in January 2008, and revised in September of that year to incorporate procedural changes brought in by the 2008 Planning Act. Although the 2008 Act did away with the ‘Issues and Options’ and ‘Preferred Options’ terminology, the former stage had already been set in motion, and it has been considered logical to present the subsequent (2010) consultation as a ‘preferred option’. The SCI sets out a range of consultation and involvement possibilities. In jkeeping with a strategic document, consultation, especially in the later stages, has focused on the methods which the SCI sets out as standard (advertisement of published documents, use of the Council’s web site, and local mass media), along with targeted locality-based meetings – either to invited stakeholder audiences or public ‘drop in’ sessions. The SCI is available on the ldf section of the Council’s web site www.copeland.gov.uk/ldf, and its Executive Summary is at Annex 7 (page ). Early engagement ‘Stakeholder Launch’ events were held in November 2008, one for stakeholders in the Borough and another for external invitees.
