  • Authority Monitoring Report (AMR) Contains Information About the Extent to Which the Council’S Planning Policy Objectives Are Being Achieved
    Appendix 1 AUTHORITY MONITORING REPORT 2016 December 2016 Spatial Policy Colchester Borough Council Rowan House 33 Sheepen Road Colchester Essex CO3 3WG [email protected] www.colchester.gov.uk The maps in this document contain Ordnance Survey data reproduced with © Crown copyright and database rights 2014 Ordnance Survey 100023706. All references to the county of Essex are to Essex as it is currently constituted i.e. without the unitary authorities of Southend-on-Sea and Thurrock. All references to ‘Colchester’ refer to Colchester Borough unless stated otherwise, e.g. Colchester town. 1. INTRODUCTION Background to the Report 1.1 This Authority Monitoring Report (AMR) contains information about the extent to which the Council’s planning policy objectives are being achieved. The report covers the period from 1 April 2015 to 31 March 2016. Introduction 1.2 The Localism Act removed the requirement for local planning authorities to produce an annual monitoring report for Government, but it did retain an overall duty to monitor planning policies. Authorities can now choose which targets and indicators to include in their monitoring reports as long as they are in line with the relevant UK and EU legislation. Their primary purpose is to share the performance and achievements of the Council’s planning service with the local community. The monitoring report also needs to demonstrate how councils are meeting the requirement to cooperate with other authorities on strategic issues. The format of this AMR accordingly was revised and shortened last year to reflect the greater flexibility allowed for these reports and to present a more concise summary of key indicators.

  • The Evolution of Puritan Mentality in an Essex Cloth Town: Dedham and the Stour Valley, 1560-1640
    The Evolution of Puritan Mentality in an Essex Cloth Town: Dedham and the Stour Valley, 1560-1640 A.R. Pennie Submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Research conducted in the Department of History. Submitted: November, 1989. bs. 1 The Evolution of Puritan Mentality in an Essex Cloth Town: Dedham and the Stour Valley, 1560-1640 A.R. Pennie Summary of thesis The subject of this thesis is the impact of religious reformation on the inhabitants of a small urban centre, with some reference to the experience of nearby settle- ments. Dedham has a place in national history as a centre of the Elizabethan Puritan Movement but the records of the Dedham Conference (the local manifestation of that movement), also illustrate the development of Reformed religion in Dedham and associated parishes. The contents of the thesis may be divided into four sections. The first of these concerns the material life of the inhabitants of Dedham and the way in which this generated both the potential for social cohesion and the possibility of social conflict. The second section examines the attempt at parish reformation sponsored by the ministers associated with the Dedham Conference and the militant and exclusive doctrine of the Christian life elaborated by the succeeding generation of preachers. The third element of the thesis focuses on the way in which the inhabitants articulated the expression of a Reformed or Puritan piety and, on occasion, the rejection of features of that piety. The ways in which the townspeople promoted the education of their children, the relief of the poor and the acknowledgement of ties of kinship and friendship, have been examined in terms of their relationship to a collective mentality characterized by a strong commitment to 'godly' religion.

    POST OFFICE DIRECTORY OF ESSEX, HERTS, MIDDLESEX KENT ; CORRECTED TO THE TIME OF PUBLICATION. r LONDON: PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY KELLY AND CO,, OLD BOSWELL COURT, ST. CLEMENT'S, STRAND. W.C. 1862. PREFACE. TIIE Proprietors, in submitting to their Subscribers and the Public the present (being the Fifth) Edition of the Six HOME COUNTIES DIRECTORY, trust that it may • be found to be equal in accuracy to the previous Editions. Several additions have been made to the present volume : lists of Hundreds and Poor Law Unions have been included in the Topography of each County; it is stated under each Parish in what Hundred, Union and County Court District it is situate, as well as the Diocese, Archdeaconry and Rural Deanery; and the College and University of every Beneficed Clergyman have been given. The Post Office Savings Banks have been noticed; the names of the Parish Clerks are given under each Parish ; and lists of Farm Bailiffs of gentlemen farming their own land have been added. / The bulk of the Directory has again increased considerably: the Third Edition consisted of 1,420 pages; the Fourth had increased to 1,752 pages; and the present contains 1,986 pages. The value of the Directory, however, will depend principally on the fact that it has been most carefully corrected, every parish having been personally visited by the Agents during the last six months. The Proprietors have again to return their thanks to the Clergymen, Clerks of the Peace, Magistrates' Clerks, Registrars, and other Gentlemen who have assisted the Agents while collecting the information.

  • Essex Bronze Implements and Weapons in the Colchester Museum
    ESSEX BRONZE IMPLEMENTS AND WEAPONS IN THE COLCHESTER MUSEUM. BY CHARLES H. BUTCHER. NUMEROUS discoveries of ancient bronze have been made from time to time throughout Essex, but few accounts of what has been brought to light have been placed on record. Finds of bronze are not commonplace, and it is to be regretted that several of some importance have become scattered and cannot be traced. As little or no record of these discoveries has been preserved, many facts relating to the art and industry of the British Bronze Age have undoubtedly been lost. Some notes upon bronze implements and weapons found in Essex, and now preserved in the Colchester Museum, then I trust will be acceptable as a contribution to these Transactions. INTRODUCTION. Isolated implements and weapons have occasionally been found, but it is mainly due to the hoards of the founder that we are indebted for finds of ancient bronze. These hoards are the most characteristic of the traces which have been left by the bronze-using people. From their distribution they give some indication of the diffusion of bronze age communities and of the activity and extent of bronze age commerce, and the bronze which they contain furnishes valuable evidence as to the working of metal in ancient times. Some of them may have been the property of merchants rather than founders, or personal deposits of the period. But when we discover rough masses of metal associated with broken and worn-out tools and weapons, and in some instances bronze moulds, there can be little doubt that the deposit belonged to some founder.
