  • Minutes of the Annual Parish Meeting of Butleigh Parish Council Held at 7.00P.M
    MINUTES OF THE ANNUAL PARISH MEETING OF BUTLEIGH PARISH COUNCIL HELD AT 7.00P.M. ON 5 th April 2016 IN THE CHURCH ROOM, BUTLEIGH. PARISH COUNCILLORS PRESENT: A Carr (Chairman), K Otton, W Moore-Read, APOLOGIES : Richard Burdett, E Aitken OTHERS PRESENT: M Hoyle, T Hoyle, T Done, G de Wilton, S de Camp, N Woolcombe- Adams, Mrs C Simpson . CHAIRMAN’S REPORT; ALAN CARR REPORTED: Welcome to the Annual Parish Meeting. This meeting gives Parishioners a chance to hear what the Parish Council has been doing on their behalf during the year and raise any questions. Council Meetings Unfortunately this year the Council has been operating with less than its full compliment of Councillors. Currently there are 5 Councillors instead of 8. So far attempts to recruit have been unsuccessful. Meetings are usually held on the first Tuesday of the month and the dates are published in advance on the Parish Noticeboard and in News and Views. There has been an 82% councillor attendance over 10 meetings. Our County and District Ward Councillor Nigel Woollcombe-Adams has attended on 3 occasions during the year. When contentious planning applications have been on the agenda a number of villagers have attended but generally public attendance has been limited. Councillors have attended training sessions in Shepton Mallet when appropriate. Planning As a Public Consultee the Parish Council looked at 30 applications. We recommended 23 for approval and 3 for refusal. Mendip District Council approved 22 and refused 1 of these. The balance were either withdrawn or are awaiting decisions. There have been a number of Planning Appeals.

  • Dedicattons of Tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©Ometsetsftire. “L
    DeDicattons of tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©ometsetsftire. BY THE KEY. E. H. BATES, M.A HE late Mr. W illiam Long contributed to the seventeenth “L volume of the Proceedings in 1871 a classified list of the Church Dedications given by Ecton in his Thesaurus Rerum Ecclesiasticarum, 1742. As Editor of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Kalendar my attention has been frequently drawn, from my own knowledge as well as by numerous correspon- dents, to the many errors and gaps in that list. It became plainly necessary to go behind the Thesaurus to the original sources of information. And here I may be allowed to repro- duce what I have already stated in the preface to the Kalendar for 1905. It should be clearly understood that there is no authoritative list in existence. Among the Public Becords are two works known as Pope Nicholas’ Taxatio of 1291, and the Valor Ec- clesiasticus of 27 Henry VIII (1536), containing the names of all parishes in England and Wales. These were primarily drawn up to ascertain the value of the benefices, and only in- cidentally, as in the case of towms with many churches, are the dedications added. The latter work, to which the title of V^ahr Ecclesiasticus or Liber Regis is generally given, was first printed in 1711 by J ohn Ecton. His preface contains a very interesting account of the early work of the Queen Anne’s Bounty Fund, of which he was Receiver, and of the serious state of affairs in the large towns which led to its foundation.
