This comprises fieldwalking of about a quarter of the parish (1981- 2007), 10 casual observations including three test pits within the village (c.1985- 2011), an earthwork survey at River Farm (Field 2) and 24 test pits within the village excavated over a weekend in 2012. This is a significant amount of work which has added substantially to our understanding of the development if the parish over time. Very small quantities of earlier prehistoric material were recovered, with no significant artefacts present; although a small concentration of worked flint was found in Field 13.

  • Community Governance Review of Haslingfield Parish
    Community Governance Review of Haslingfield Parish Terms of Reference www.scambs.gov.uk 1. Introduction 1.1 South Cambridgeshire District Council has resolved to undertake a Community Governance Review of the parish of Haslingfield. 1.2 This review is to address the population growth in respect of the new housing development at Trumpington Meadows: to consider whether the creation or alteration (and thus naming) of existing parish boundaries and any consequent changes to the electoral arrangements for the parish(es) should be recommended. 1.3 In undertaking this review the Council has considered the Guidance on Community Governance Reviews issued by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, published in April 2008, which reflects Part 4 of the Local Government and Public Involvement in HealthAct 2007 and the relevant parts of the Local Government Act 1972, Guidance on Community Governance Reviews issued in accordance with section 100(4) of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007 by the Department of Communities and Local Government and the Local Government Boundary Commission for England in March 2010, and the following regulations which guide, in particular, consequential matters arising from the Review: Local Government (Parishes and Parish Councils) (England) Regulations 2008 (SI2008/626). (The 2007 Act transferred powers to the principal councils which previously, under the Local Government Act 1997, had been shared with the Electoral Commission’s Boundary Committee for England.) 1.4 These Terms of Reference will set out clearly the matters on which the Community Governance Review is to focus. We will publish this document on our website and also in hard copy.

  • East West Rail Update Oct
    East West Rail Update, October 6th 2020 On October 1st Harlton Parish Council attended a Zoom meeting with other parish councils (Toft to Great Shelford) to discuss comments on the alternative route alignments proposed in Route E by Cambridge Approaches (formally known as East West Rail Cambridge Approaches Action Group). There was also a vote on each alignment looking at the route as a whole, not just a parish-centric view using local information and the impact assessment charts (looking at proximity to property, noise, air pollution, visual impact, ecological impact, archaeological impact, roads and footpaths crossed) formulated by David Revell (chair of Cambridge Approaches). Below is Harlton Parish Council’s response to the alternatives, plus a map of the alignments. We support Route 6 (see separate map with grey route) primarily, as this sites the railway station north of Cambourne - supported by Cambourne village and Anthony Browne. Within Route E, we support Routes 1 and 1A. Of the parish councils that voted last night (seven), Route 6 came out as the most favourable option, followed by 1A and 1. Routes 3 and 5 were the least favourable. Cambridge Approaches EWR's 'Option E' Boundary 26 Sept 2020 Extension to Trumpington Park & Ride Industrial effluent disposal plant MRAO exclusion zone Tu n n e ls All alternative corridors shown are indicative of the general route EWR may take in this area and should not be taken as being definitive of the limits of an alignment. There are many alternatives that EWR may be considering and EWR’s options to be presented in Jan 2021 may well differ from those shown here.

  • South Cambridgeshire District Council – Harston & Comberton Ward Report to Haslingfield Parish Council July 2021
    South Cambridgeshire District Council – Harston & Comberton Ward Report to Haslingfield Parish Council July 2021 Covid Update Rates of Covid-19 in Cambridgeshire have risen sharply and they continue to rise. At the time of writing, there are 92 cases per 100,000 across Cambridgeshire, which is an 85 increase on last week. There is particular concern about the rising rates of Covid-19 in Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire. Again at the time of writing, there are 216 cases per 100,000 in Cambridge and 101 cases in South Cambridgeshire, with most cases being seen in 18 to 30-year-olds. Hospital admissions remain fairly low and there has been one death in the past month. What we are seeing in parts of Cambridgeshire is very similar to the rest of the country, in that the Delta variant, which we know to be much easier to pass on, is accounting for the rise in cases of Covid-19. There is a big push to promote testing amongst the 18-30 year olds, including people without symptoms, as you are no doubt aware the virus can spread without any symptoms showing. Alongside testing there is a race against time to ensure as many people as possible take up their first and second doses of vaccine before restrictions are lifted on the 19th July. The lifting of restrictions could further fuel the spread of the virus, exposing people at high risk, to infection. Cambridge South-West Travel Hub We understand the plans for the Cambridge South West Travel Hub go before the County Council Planning Committee on 29th July.
