Parish Council analyses issues 1. Froxfield present Straddling the A4 road, Froxfield is a village which at the last census (2011) had a population of 382. This included 153 men and 229 women and covered 168 households. (i) The highest population enjoyed by Froxfield was 625 in 1841; the lowest 266 in 1971. (ii) The village extends along the very wide A4 – with narrow (often single-track) side roads leading off it towards Little Bedwyn, Great Bedwyn, Chilton Foliat and Ramsbury. There are also three smaller residential ‘no-thru’ roads. There is a thriving private nursery school (Stepping Stones) within the village boundary at the hamlet of Oakhill. There are several substantial businesses based in Froxfield – furniture retailer OKA has its major south west showroom on the A4, at the western end of the village; along Littlecote Road, we find BK Grain Handling Engineers, operating in Froxfield since 1981; Brendoncare offers nursing care for 44 residents and The Blanchard Collective has a 6000sq ft warehouse for 18 antique dealers. 2. Froxfield past The earliest written record of anything on the site of the parish of Froxfield was found in the year 778, where a parcel of land in the general area was called Frosca burna – or 'frog's bourn' –- but this does not necessarily mean that there was a settlement there.

  • Pewsey Community Area Plan
    Pewsey Community Area Plan 2019-04 PCAP Plan v25.docx Page 1 of 40 Introduction What is the Pewsey Community Area Partnership (PCAP)? PCAP is autonomous and independent; it is inclusive of, and accountable to our wider Community Area. It has a voluntary relationship with the Council and public agencies and helps to form the basis of a strong, resilient and empowered Pewsey Community Area. PCAP aims to create active and sustained participation by all sections of the community that will lead to public funding and services to be more accurately allocated to the wider priority needs. PCAP consults widely on a range of the community issues and holds public engagement events and activities to further involve every member of the community. The Pewsey Community Area covers the following parishes (26 in total, * indicates parishes have combined): Alton, Beechingstoke, Burbage, Buttermere, *Charlton and Wilsford, Chirton & Conock, Easton, Grafton, Great Bedwyn, Ham, Little Bedwyn, Manningford, Marden, Milton Lilbourne, North Newnton, Patney, Pewsey, Rushall, Shalbourne, Stanton St Bernard, Upavon, *Wilcot & Huish (with Oare), Woodborough, Wootton Rivers. What is the Community Plan (CP)? The CP sets out ideas and priorities for each subject area. Each of these ideas, based on priority, form the basis of consultation with the community to identify what actions the community would like to see happen. Those actions may then be delivered by Wiltshire Council, other services, voluntary organisations or Parish Councils, or indeed a combination of these organisations. PCAP’s role is to identify the actions and to assist in realising the projects or changes required. How is PCAP organised? PCAP is made up of a group of volunteers, all living and working within the Pewsey Community Area and who meet every quarter.
