CARLISLE AREA COMMITTEE Minutes of a Meeting of the Carlisle Area Committee Held on Wednesday 4 September 1996 at 2.30 Pm At CARLISLE AREA COMMITTEE Minutes of a meeting of the Carlisle Area Committee held on Wednesday 4 September 1996 at 2.30 pm at The Courts, Carlisle. PRESENT Mr S F Young (Chairman) Mrs V Coast Mr J W Oswald Mrs A Glendinning Mr J R D Robinson Mr A Graham Mr A Toole Mr T G Hodgson Mr Watson Mr J D Jefferson Mr G Whalley Mr J Mallinson Mr B G Whitaker Mr S J Matthews Mr K Wilkinson 13 APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE Apologies for absence were received from Mr R E F Aldersey and Mr C B Ross. 14 ADMISSION OF PRESS AND PUBLIC RESOLVED, that under Section 100(A)(4) of the Local Government Act 1972 the press and public be excluded from the Meeting during consideration of item 21 on the grounds that it involves the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined in paragraph 1 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the said Act:- 15 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION The Committee welcomed Mrs Margaret Van-Tilberg who addressed the meeting in relation to item 14, Residents Parking in Carlisle. The Committee agreed to consider this item of business at this stage of the Agenda. Residents Parking in Carlisle Mrs Van-Tilberg indicated that she had been asked to represent the views of the residents of Chiswick Street and the section of Warwick Road which ran along the boundaries of Chiswick Street from Spencer Street to Hartington Place and would include the views of the Spokesmen for the various medical general practitioners that had practices in the area. Residents of Warwick Road shared rear access to Chiswick Street and the back lane of Chiswick Street. They were fronted by a bus lane and had no vehicular access to the front of their houses. They therefore experienced the same parking difficulties as Chiswick Street. Chiswick Street had a 2 hour waiting restriction. Warwick Road had no parking and Spencer Street no parking. Residents were in favour of parking being available for them although there were divisions on the issue of funding. Local GPs based in the area had 30,000 patients who visited (and were likely to park) on average six times a year. Around 150 nurses were based in local GP premises and had to move their cars every two hours. As a conservation area it was impossible to make conversions to eg back yards for car ports. The back lane to Chiswick Street was regularly used - and abused - as a "rat run" for taxi drivers and "joy riders". Carlisle College now had some 11,000 full and part-time students and the College provided no student parking facilities whatsoever and this represented a growing pressure on parking in the area. The Committee went on to consider the report on residents parking in Carlisle by the Director of Economy and Environment which detailed work carried out by Carlisle City Council in developing proposals for residents parking schemes in the City, the current policy of the County Council and sought Members views as to how a residents parking scheme in Carlisle should be developed. The Committee welcomed Mrs Van-Tilberg’s contribution to the meeting and recognised the range of pressures that were facing residents parking in the area in question. There was a consensus that as a matter of principle no policy of charging should be levied on residents parking. It was agreed that subject to the establishment of a Carlisle Joint Policy Advisory Committee (reference Minute 17) this issue should be the subject of in-depth consideration in the first instance by this body and RESOLVED, that the issue of residents parking in Carlisle be deferred to the Carlisle Joint Policy Advisory Committee for the fullest consideration and report back. 16 MINUTES The Minutes of the meetings of the Committee held on 29 May 1996 and 22 July 1996 were agreed and thereupon signed by the Chairman. 17 JOINT MEETING WITH CARLISLE CITY COUNCIL The Notes of the Joint meeting of the Carlisle Area Committee with representatives of Carlisle City Council on 30 August 1996 were agreed (Appendix A, page ) RESOLVED, that (a) a Carlisle Joint Policy Advisory Committee be constituted as detailed in the Annex to the Notes of the Joint meeting with Carlisle City Council on 30 August 1996 (Appendix B, page ) for the purpose of advising the two Authorities on any matter relating to the discharge of their functions or responsibilities in respect of Highways matters within the administrative area of the City of Carlisle; (b) the Joint Policy Advisory Committee be constituted with 7 Members from each Authority; (c) the County Council Appointees be on a 3: 3: 1 basis nominated substitutes as appropriate; (d) appointments to the Joint Policy Advisory Committee be as follows: Labour Mr A Graham Mr R Watson Mr S F Young Conservative Mr J D Jefferson Mr A Toole Mr B G Whitaker Liberal Democrat Mr R A F Aldersey (e) attendance at the Joint Policy Advisory Committee be an approved duty for Members Allowances purposes. 18 PROPOSAL FOR NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMENT SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT The Corporate Services Manager reported on a proposed Service Level Agreement (SLA) designed to meet the needs expressed by the Area Committee at its last meeting for Neighbourhood Development and set out two options to facilitate this. The report detailed the core services between the provider (Neighbourhood Development) and the purchaser (the Area Committee). The Corporate Services Manager gave a detailed analysis of the relationship between the two with regards to Neighbourhood Development and had identified two options: Option 1 - Purchasers required from an annual number of days - on an average across the County Neighbourhood Development would equate to 10 working days per Neighbourhood Forum. Up to 100 working days had therefore been identified for the Carlisle area. The draft SLA detailed what outputs and outcomes could be achieved from allocation for the Carlisle area of 100 days Neighbourhood Development. Option 2 - Purchase "as required" no guarantee - however if the Committee wished to purchase only on an "as required" basis which would not give Neighbourhood Development the guarantee of a certain volume of work and hourly rate would have to be charged. The SLA would not detail outputs and outcomes. Outputs and outcomes would be specified as hours were purchased. This arrangement would require the Area Committee to determine who would authorise and control this expenditure. The Corporate Services Manager went on to detail arrangements for charges for services. The advantages and disadvantages of both options were fully discussed and, upon being put to the vote, it was RESOLVED, that (1) option 1 as the proposal for Neighbourhood Development Service Level Agreement be approved; (2) it be noted that the proposal is subject to Policy Review Sub-Committee approving the planning assumptions upon which they are based on 25 October 1996. 19 PRE-SCHOOL FACILITIES IN THE CARLISLE AREA The Under 8s Co-ordinator presented a report detailing up to date pre- school and nursery provision in the Carlisle area RESOLVED, that the report be noted. 20 UNDER 5S BUDGET The Committee noted the financial statement with regard to the Under 5s budget for the Carlisle area. 21 POSSIBLE PROJECT TO PROVIDE ACCOMMODATION FOR PRE-SCHOOL GROUPS AT MORTON PARK, CARLISLE The Client Services and Property Unit Manager and the Corporate Services Manager presented a joint report providing further information relating to the possible provision of a base for pre-school groups at Morton Park Primary School, Carlisle RESOLVED, that the report be noted. 22 NURSERY VOUCHERS The Director of Education presented a report updating Members on proposals by the Government to introduce nursery vouchers for all 4 year olds from April 1997 and seeking their endorsement to plans aimed at maintaining, in the short term, current standards and provision. A copy of the latest consultation newsletter circulated to schools was appended to the report. Members reiterated their concerns about the possible implications of the nursery voucher scheme for the Authority and its effect on the Council’s budget. RESOLVED, that (a) with the Education Committee, the continuing commitment to Under 5s in 1997/98 be maintained; (b) the Education Committee’s intention to commission a review of the effect of the introduction of nursery vouchers for 4 year olds on the take up of places within the state, voluntary and private sectors in Cumbria towards the end of 1997 be endorsed. 23 BOOKS FOR BABIES: PROGRESS REPORT The County Heritage Services Officer presented a report detailing a promotional strategy "Books for Babies" as part of an update on an initiative which in October 1995 had been launched to encourage young children to use library services and as a foundation for reading skills and a love of books for life long learning. A free book and high quality information pack was made available for any child under 3 who lived in Cumbria and enrolled at the Library. The initiative and implementation of this practical scheme, throughout the County, had been enthusiastically supported and received by parents, carers, other professionals and the children themselves. The success was an indication that the scheme should continue and be taken forward to enable a more widespread response to the scheme. RESOLVED, that (1) Books for Babies be extended to 3 year olds; (2) the employment of short-term project workers in each area to promote Books for Babies to playgroups etc through libraries where take-up was lower be endorsed; (3) training be extended to front-line staff so they could better promote the aims of the service; (4) a grant of £4,700 be made to support the extension to 3 year olds and the targeting of places where take-up is lower.

  • Kirkandrews on Esk: Introduction1
    Victoria County History of Cumbria Project: Work in Progress Interim Draft [Note: This is an incomplete, interim draft and should not be cited without first consulting the VCH Cumbria project: for contact details, see http://www.cumbriacountyhistory.org.uk/] Parish/township: KIRKANDREWS ON ESK Author: Fay V. Winkworth Date of draft: January 2013 KIRKANDREWS ON ESK: INTRODUCTION1 1. Description and location Kirkandrews on Esk is a large rural, sparsely populated parish in the north west of Cumbria bordering on Scotland. It extends nearly 10 miles in a north-east direction from the Solway Firth, with an average breadth of 3 miles. It comprised 10,891 acres (4,407 ha) in 1864 2 and 11,124 acres (4,502 ha) in 1938. 3 Originally part of the barony of Liddel, its history is closely linked with the neighbouring parish of Arthuret. The nearest town is Longtown (just across the River Esk in Arthuret parish). Kirkandrews on Esk, named after the church of St. Andrews 4, lies about 11 miles north of Carlisle. This parish is separated from Scotland by the rivers Sark and Liddel as well as the Scotsdike, a mound of earth erected in 1552 to divide the English Debatable lands from the Scottish. It is bounded on the south and east by Arthuret and Rockcliffe parishes and on the north east by Nicholforest, formerly a chapelry within Kirkandrews which became a separate ecclesiastical parish in 1744. The border with Arthuret is marked by the River Esk and the Carwinley burn. 1 The author thanks the following for their assistance during the preparation of this article: Ian Winkworth, Richard Brockington, William Bundred, Chairman of Kirkandrews Parish Council, Gillian Massiah, publicity officer Kirkandrews on Esk church, Ivor Gray and local residents of Kirkandrews on Esk, David Grisenthwaite for his detailed information on buses in this parish; David Bowcock, Tom Robson and the staff of Cumbria Archive Centre, Carlisle; Stephen White at Carlisle Central Library.

    Schedule of Decisions Control of Development and Advertisements The Development Control Committee received and considered the following applications: Item no: 01 Appn Ref No: Applicant: Parish: 18/0388 Mr Ian Murray Carlisle Date of Receipt: Agent: Ward: 25/04/2018 08:01:58 Botcherby Location: Grid Reference: Land adjacent Geltsdale Avenue, Durranhill, 342746 555199 Carlisle, CA1 2RL Proposal: Proposed New Vehicle and Pedestrian Entrance Refuse Permission 1. The proposed access would result in additional vehicle movements onto and leaving Durranhill Road to access and egress the site in close proximity to the existing junction and traffic calming measure therefore having a detrimental impact on the safety of users of the highway. The development would require additional movements within the site to allow vehicles to turn around with the site and leave in a forward direction that would be further detrimental to the well-being of the trees within the site through further compaction of the ground. There is no proven need for the access and maintenance could be achieved by other means. Accordingly, the proposal is therefore contrary to paragraph 11(d)(ii) of the National Planning Policy Framework and Policy SP1 (Sustainable Development) of The Carlisle District Local Plan 2015-2030.

  • The Church Bells of Cumberland by Rev
    The Church Bells of Cumberland by Rev. Henry Whitehead File 01 Containing: Bells ... of the Deanery of Brampton (1882) ... of the Border (1883) ... of Carlisle Cathedral (1883) ... of Cumberland Ward (1885 to 1886) This document is provided for you by The Whiting Society of Ringers visit www.whitingsociety.org.uk for the full range of publications and articles about bells and change ringing ( 41 7) ART. XLI.-Clmrch Bells in the Deaiiery of Brampton. By the Rev. H. WHITEHEAD, M.A. Co1mmmicated at Keswick, Oct. 5th, 1882. BEWCASTLE. N Cumberland, as a rule, though not without exceptions, I the nearer the border the fewer the church bells. The border parish of Bewcastle for an unknown length of time had no church bell. Bishop Nicolson, who visited this parish on July 30, 1703, states in his Miscellany Accounts of the Diocese of Carlile (p. 56) that he found " no Bell, to call them in to Divine Service." Some fifty years later, in a marginal note to the bishop's MS., on the page relating to Bewcastle, Chancellor Waugh says:- "Nor have they yet any Bell." The terrier of 1828 informs us when the want was supplied: "There is a good Church Bell, purchased by the parish about the year 1785. Prior to that time the Clrnrch had no bell." The same story is told, with a sequel, in the terrier of 1868: "A Church Bell was purchased by the parish about the year 1785, before which there appears to have been none. This bell was broken and a new one purchased by the paris h in 1845." The new bell, which is still in use, is blank, i.e., without inscription, date, stamp, or mark of any kind.

  • Newman, C.E. 2014 V.1.Pdf
    Mapping the Late Medieval and Post Medieval Landscape of Cumbria Two Volumes Volume 1: Text Caron Egerton Newman Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History, Classics and Archaeology Newcastle University Submitted: June 2014 Abstract This study is an analysis of the development of rural settlement patterns and field systems in Cumbria from the later medieval period through to the late eighteenth century. It uses documentary, cartographic and archaeological evidence. This evidence is interpreted utilising the techniques of historic landscape characterisation (HLC), map regression and maps created by the author, summarising and synthesising historical and archaeological data. The mapped settlement data, in particular, has been manipulated using tools of graphic analysis available within a Graphical Information System (GIS). The initial product is a digital map of Cumbria in the late eighteenth century, based on the county-scale maps of that period, enhanced with information taken from enclosure maps and awards, and other post medieval cartographic sources. From this baseline, an interpretation of the late medieval landscape was developed by adding information from other data sources, such as place names and documentary evidence. The approach was necessarily top-down and broad brush, in order to provide a landscape-scale, sub-regional view. This both addresses the deficiencies within the standard historical approach to landscape development, and complements such approaches. Standard historical approaches are strong on detail, but can be weak when conclusions based on localised examples are extrapolated and attributed to the wider landscape. The methodology adopted by this study allows those local analyses to be set within a broader landscape context, providing another tool to use alongside more traditional approaches to historic landscape studies.

  • THE RAILWAY THROUGH NICHOLFOREST by Joan Robson (2008)
    THE RAILWAY THROUGH NICHOLFOREST By Joan Robson (2008) In the Railway Building era of the mid 19th Century it was proposed to construct a railway through the Central Borders. In 1850 a plan was drawn up to take the route from Carlisle through Longtown, Kirkandrews, Canonbie, Langholm, Ewes Vale and onwards to Hawick. The Engineers Blyth and Jopp pointed out the fact that this proposed route would cross rivers eleven times near Hawick. Negotiations continued in the next few years until 1858 when another plan was proposed to take the route through Liddesdale. This route was to be known as the Border Union Railway. Later it was renamed the Waverley Route. Investigation began into land ownership and the following were recorded:- Kershopefoot, owner William Henry Charlton of Hesleyside near Bellingham and occupied by Walter Maxwell and Margaret Armstrong. The route also crossed land owned by Sir James Graham of Netherby and occupied by Reginald Graham, John Underwood, John Millican, Margaret Palmer, John Forster and Mary Broatch. A nearby limekiln was owned by Sir James Graham and let to John Brown. Jane Storey owned land let to Mary Broatch. George Tinniswood owned land let to John Jeffrey, Andrew Little and William Little. Penton House, offices and pleasure ground was owned by George Tinniswood. Further land was owned by George, Ellen, Francis and John Armstrong. Later in the same year, 1858 there was great indignation that the proposal of the Liddesdale route was out of favour as the Parliamentary decision via Langholm, Moss Paul etc. A petition by the supporters of the Liddesdale route was sent to the House of Lords.
