  • Minerals and Waste Policies and Sites DPD Policy
    Tees Valley Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents In association with Policies & Sites DPD Adopted September 2011 27333-r22.indd 1 08/11/2010 14:55:36 i Foreword The Tees Valley Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents (DPDs) - prepared jointly by the boroughs of Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees - bring together the planning issues which arise from these two subjects within the sub-region. Two DPDs have been prepared. The Minerals and Waste Core Strategy contains the long-term spatial vision and the strategic policies needed to achieve the key objectives for minerals and waste developments in the Tees Valley. This Policies and Sites DPD, which conforms with that Core Strategy, identifies specific sites for minerals and waste development and sets out policies which will be used to assess minerals and waste planning applications. The DPDs form part of the local development framework and development plan for each Borough. They cover all of the five Boroughs except for the part of Redcar and Cleveland that lies within the North York Moors National Park. (Minerals and waste policies for that area are included in the national park’s own local development framework.) The DPDs were prepared during a lengthy process of consultation. This allowed anyone with an interest in minerals and waste in the Tees Valley the opportunity to be involved. An Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State carried out an Examination into the DPDs in early 2011. He concluded that they had been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and were sound.

    at Dalton Piercy, Elwick and Hart & May 2020 Produced for the Villagers by Hart and Elwick Churches Revd. Janet Burbury, The Vicarage, Hart, Hartlepool. TS27 3AP [email protected] Tel. 01429 262340 Mob 07958 131271 Dear friends, I truly wish I could wave a magic wand and comfort you all but this climate of fear and isolation is such a massive change to us all, I doubt any of us has yet to truly feel it’s implications. Be assured my prayers and pastoral support is with you. Don’t think twice before picking up the phone to contact me for a chat, to help in a practical way. I will do what I can to help. We haven’t had a ‘dispersed’ church since the days when Jesus himself walked this earth. Soon after his life on earth church buildings to gather for worship and pastoral support were built by the disciples copying the pattern of the Jewish syna- gogues of the day. Today as a dispersed church we are figuring out how to be church. If this restriction to isolate goes on, what will become of church buildings when they can’t afford their statutory upkeep including insurance, parish share and all? How will this virus refocus our society? Will the threat of this virus weaken or strengthen the Christian church? Will we become more or less community minded? As we see the empty shelves in our shops from panic buying we are certainly chal- lenged to pray more earnestly, “Give us today our daily bread”. This phrase re- minds us to ask for what we need and no more.

TS27 3AP [email protected] Tel. 01429 262340 Mob 07958 131271 Dear friends, At last the snow has disappeared and those of us who call themselves gardeners realise that we are a little behind with our preparation in making new life burst forth into our little patch of England that surrounds our homes. I’m looking forward to seeing houses adorned with eggs to remind us of the empty tomb and catkins that remind us that the trees are still growing and blossom will soon decorate our paths. Where’s the life in our communities at present? We enjoyed a great St Patrick’s night in Hart Village Hall and soon we’ll have our Pie n Peas night at Elwick. These evenings are gentle social times when we re- mind folks that community spirit is not lost and in the villages we continue to value it highly. Hart church is looking forward to seeing a new stained glass window which will de- pict the parable of the Sower. I’ll give you more details of that next time!! Children who attend Hart can now enjoy some new tailor made desks and seating which are fabulous. Many thanks go the Johnson family for their kind donation of this fur- niture which will serve generations of children in years to come. As Jesus prepared to show the world that he came to offer the fullness of life, it’s interesting that most of the disciples abandoned him in the hours before his trial.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.
