  • No 1 Wareham Camp
    Wareham in the First World War 1914-1918 No 1 Wareham Camp View of Wareham Camp from Worgret in 1915/16. The building left of centre is Robert Christmas House (then the workhouse), Arne Hill is in the centre, and the railway is in the cutting in the foreground. At the time of the outbreak of the war, Wareham was a small town of just over 2,000 people. The town was transformed during the war by the huge military camp built on the outskirts of the town, on both sides of the Worgret Road. It was known as Wareham Camp or Worgret Camp. Military training for units of the Territorial Army had taken place in the Wareham area for more than 50 years, because of the wide open spaces and easy access by train. These camps were tented, and temporary; the wartime Wareham Camp was built of wooden huts and existed for about eight years. Wareham was chosen as the site of a major camp in early September 1914, a month after Britain declared war on Germany. It was to be used as a base for training new recruits. The first arrivals were volunteers from Yorkshire, who had responded to Lord Kitchener’s famous call to sign up, “YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU.” Six hundred men arrived by train in Wareham to find that no preparations had been made for them. It was raining heavily and they were all soaked. Until tents arrived, they were accommodated in halls, churches, schools and private houses, and the townspeople provided blankets, food and cigarettes.

  • Core Strategy 2006-2026 Preferred
    Core Strategy Development Plan Document 2006-2026 Preferred Options Document Consultation September 2006 Purbeck District Council Westport House Worgret Road WAREHAM, Dorset BH20 4PP Tel: (01929) 556561 Fax: (01929) 552688 Website: www.purbeck.gov.uk Email: [email protected] 1. Core Strategy Preferred Options document This document will be made available in other languages, in large print or in the form of a radio transcription on request. Please telephone 01929 557339 if you need assistance with this document. Core Strategy Preferred Options document Foreword The Core Strategy will set out a vision for how Purbeck can create sustainable communities over the next 15-20 years. Its purpose is to proactively manage development and associated activities to make Purbeck a better place. It should identify the key assets of Purbeck which need protection, and take account of the aspiration of Purbeck’s residents so that development can better address their needs. It is important to recognise that new development, (whether new houses, employment uses, shops or other community facilities) will be an essential part of the equation. Undoubtedly development brings pressures and difficulties, but it can also help deliver our housing needs, help create a stronger economy, improve accessibility to shops and services, communication and health. The challenge for planning is to manage development and associated activities so that what is built meets the needs of present and future generations. Purbeck District Council is responsible for only a small amount of the activities that happen within the District, with other organisations in the public, private, and voluntary sectors providing many services.

  • Dorset Council Local Plan Consultation Milborne St Andrew Parish Council Response 17 February 2021
    Dorset Planning Consultant Ltd DORSET COUNCIL LOCAL PLAN CONSULTATION MILBORNE ST ANDREW PARISH COUNCIL RESPONSE 17 FEBRUARY 2021 SECTION 2: DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY DEV1: The housing requirement and the need for employment land in Dorset It is accepted that the starting point of the housing numbers for the area is a matter dictated by the housing projections cascaded down from central Government. It is disappointing that these are using out-of-date populations projections and appear to take no account of environmental constraints at this first stage. As worded this states that provision is made so that (a minimum number) of houses ‘will be delivered’. Yet the actual delivery is not within the control of Dorset Council or local communities. It would be much better to phrase this along the lines of the provision “will enable landowners and developers to deliver this growth...” Section 2.7.3 highlights that past delivery has been below the target rate set in local plans, but provides no analysis as to why this is the case – which is critical if we are to avoid repeating this problem (and unnecessarily develop unsuitable land). There are certainly examples of development within Milborne St Andrew that have not progressed in a timely fashion, and not only does this put pressure on the further release of greenfield sites, but also their part-implementation has caused concern when the site falls into disrepair. We would also like the Council to consider including sub-area targets for each functional area within the policy, if there is a genuine spatial strategy that seeks to direct growth in a manner that is sustainably balanced, and to minimise the risk that (for example) the failure to deliver on development on one side of the county will be seen to be remedied by further growth in a completely different area, if the housing land supply falls below 5 year’s supply.

  • New Love for Milborne's Old Stag
    R e p o r t e80p where r sold News and Views from around the area Volume 10 Issue 2 February 2018 www.milbornestandrew.org.uk/reporter facebook.com/MilborneReporter New love for Milborne’s old stag See page 3 A slow start to the New Year at Village History Group A very few people managed to make the meeting in January, those who did thought that many, who regularly come, could still be on holiday or unwell. We hope for more people next meeting. At this meeting Linda shared files of information that she has discovered by researching various websites. She has census returns and information from other sources (including the Reporter) which will inform our collation of information. She has been researching books written about other villages which may inform how we structure a book should we choose that route. Linda has also discovered an interesting website which shows photos of old Fordington; www.millstreethousingsociety.co.uk. Could this inspire us to create a website? We also discussed joining the Dorset History Network again but concluded that as no members appear to have accessed it, we would not do so. The History Group asks those who come to pay a small subscription; there is now a healthy sum which we could use to pay for speakers. If anyone has any good ideas about subjects or presenters please let me know. The next meeting is 14th February at 7.30pm in The Royal Oak. Hopefully members who volunteered to write up information about specific buildings will be able to share these with the group.

  • The Will of John Morton
    Running headARTICLES RIGHT The Will of John Morton – an introduction In the late spring of 2016, Dr Betty Knott, a retired Latinist from Glasgow University, graciously agreed to participate in The Missing Princes Project and offer her expertise. As the information gathering for the modern investigation into the disappearance of the sons of King Edward IV continued apace, it was becoming increasingly clear that the enquiry had to consider all potential sources of information. With John Morton’s role in the key period of investigation (1483–6), coupled with Dr Knott’s academic neutrality, revealing Morton’s will in full in English for the first time would not only be consistent with the aims and ambition of the project, but might offer new connections and insight into this important figure. Previously, only an epitome of Morton’s will was available in English translation.* With thanks to Marie Barnfield whose meticulous and informed transcript and decipherment of the very difficult hand of the original manuscript considerably expedited Dr Knott’s own reading of the original text, and author Isolde Martyn, whose investigations into John Morton instigated this complete English translation of his will. Philippa Langley MBE * C. Everleigh Woodruff, Kent Archaeological Society, 1914, vol 3, Sede Vacante Wills: Canterbury, pp 91–3. Complete Latin text pp 95–91. THE WILL OF JOHN MORTON, archbishop of Canterbury, c. 1420–1500 BETTY I. KNOTT This article, on behalf of The Missing Princes Project, is based on the original Latin text of the will of John Morton (c. 1420–1500), archbishop of Canterbury 1486–1500, and cardinal (1496).
