  • The Diocese of York the Deanery of South Wold Deanery Plan 2012
    The Diocese of York The Deanery of South Wold ‘A network of churches serving Rural communities’ Deanery Plan 2012 1 Mission Statement: The South Wold Deanery exists to provide a network of mutual support for churches • by encouraging one another in worship • by seeking God's will for our communities • by linking congregations to each other and to the wider church • by the sharing of gifts and resources The South Wold Deanery Synod aims to provide a bridge between the Diocese and Parish, and to be a space where all can be heard and valued and feel part of a greater whole. Deanery Prayer: We give thanks for the life and witness of all the churches in our Deanery, and pray that through the process of formulating a new Deanery Plan, God will give us fresh vision and energy to support one another, to share resources and to build bridges within our communities. Methodology: Whilst the Deanery Plan has been ‘top down’ in terms of the planned loss of stipendary posts, it was felt essential to allow the voice of each church to be heard. Each congregation or PCC was asked to respond individually to the paper ‘Changing Expectations’ and the accompanying discussion document. The result of this approach has been very positive. Most have attempted to grapple with the issue of ageing demography and increased ministerial work‐ load. Various different approaches have been suggested, which we have tried to reflect in the Action Plan. Two benefices (Garrowby Hill and Holme on Spalding Moor) have chosen to speak collectively; all the rest have responded individually.

But too many of them are suffering from neglect, decay and pressure from development. Heritage at Risk is a national project to identify these endangered places and then help secure their future. In 2008 English Heritage published its first register of Heritage at Risk – a region-by-region list of all the Grade I and II* listed buildings (and Grade II listed buildings in London), structural scheduled monuments, registered battlefields and protected wreck sites in England known to be ‘at risk’.

  • East Riding Local Plan Review Options Document – Summary of Consultation Responses
    East Riding Local Plan Review Options Document – summary of consultation responses March 2019 Question 1 - In relation to the housing requirement for the East Riding, which option should be taken forward as part of the Local Plan review? Option 1 - Use the new standard methodology to identify the local housing need for the East Riding as the basis for a new Local Plan requirement. Option 2 - As Option 1 but with an uplift to help address affordable housing needs identified in the Strategic Housing Market Assessment. Option 3 - Continue the current Local Plan approach which considers the housing requirement across the Hull Housing Market Area, supporting the development and regeneration of the City of Hull, and managing housing growth in the East Riding. This would result in a lower requirement for the East Riding than Option 1 would suggest.

At its heart is the Heritage at Risk Register, an online database containing details of each site known to be at risk. It is analysed and updated annually and this leaflet summarises the results. Each of our nine local offices now hosts a dedicated Heritage at Risk team, delivering national expertise locally. The good news is that we are on target to save 25% (1,137) of the sites that were on the Register in 2010 by 2015. From the historic battlefield at Towton to ancient barrows on the Wolds, this success is down to good partnerships with owners, developers, the Heritage Lottery Fund, Natural England, councils and local groups.
