  • Overview & Scrutiny
    Overview & Scrutiny 23 March 2021 Title River Thames Task Group update Purpose of the report To note Report Author Jackie Taylor Group Head of Neighbourhood Services Cabinet Member Councillor Richard Barratt Confidential No Corporate Priority Economic Development Recommendations The committee are asked to note the actions and achievements of the River Thames Task Group (RTTG) Reason for Not applicable Recommendation 1. Key issues 1.1 The River Thames Task Group (RTTG) was set up in September 2018 to improve and enhance access and activities for Spelthorne’s prime 12-mile border on the Thames. 1.2 The task group aims to achieve this by working practically with river-users, partners, and the community. To this end the committee’s membership includes people from river interest groups, businesses and other relevant organisations and individuals who share a common interest in the river. 1.3 The task group aims to inspire, motivate and deliver short-, medium- and long-term improvements along the river, engaging with the community through practical participation and by engendering a local sense of ownership and responsibility. 1.4 The Thames has a great deal to offer - from daily boat trips to simply wandering along its banks and enjoying its tranquil scenery. The locks enjoy a deserved reputation for attractively maintained gardens including those at Penton Hook, Chertsey, Shepperton and Sunbury. Many of Spelthorne's attractive parks and open spaces are also situated beside the river, and include: Lammas Recreation Ground Staines Memorial Gardens Staines Laleham Park Laleham Shepperton Tow Path Shepperton Manor Park Shepperton Version: 1, Last saved: 02/03/21 11:48 Riverside walks from Staines to Sunbury Kings Lawn Sunbury Rivermead Island Sunbury 1.5 In October 2019 a river boat event took place which enabled over 40 passengers including residents, river groups, river users, councillors, MOP, and officers on a trip from Staines through to Sunbury.

  • Walk 09 (16) Chertsey Meads, Weybridge & Shepperton
    The Datchet Health Walk 09 (16) Chertsey Meads, Weybridge & Shepperton Centre 04 September 2016 – 10am start Walking Group We meet in Chertsey Meads car park (not the second car park further down Mead Lane) OS Explorer map 160 ref: TQ 055662 Directions to meeting point From Datchet, drive along the A308 through Runnymede, then beneath the M25 to the Staines Bridge roundabout. Take the second exit and follow the A320 past Thorpe Park. Just after the bridge over the M25, turn left along the B375 to Chertsey. Drive through the village centre. At the end of the main shopping area, the road turns sharp left. Soon after this bend, turn right at traffic lights into Weir Road. Take the second road on the left, Mead Lane. Drive straight ahead over the speed humps. Soon after passing the gated entrance to Chertsey Meads, turn left into the free car park. Walk description The walk is 5 miles long and it is flat. It starts at Chertsey Meads, an area of land that was traditionally farmed as hay meadows. Its SSSI status was withdrawn in the 1980’s when more intensive farming methods killed the indigenous wild flowers and grasses. There has been a move in recent years to manage the land more sensitively, thereby encouraging native flora and fauna to return. The walk continues along the towpath of the Wey Navigation, opened in 1653 to provide a navigable connection between Guildford and the Thames at Weybridge. Walkers then have to cross the Thames via a pedestrian toll ferry to Shepperton Lock (fee £2 per person, dogs free).

  • Chertsey Club Site - Camping and Caravanning Shepperton
    Chertsey Club SIte - Camping and Caravanning Shepperton Route Summary A pleasant five-and-a-half-mile walk from Chertsey Club Site that follows the meandering Thames to Shepperton, crosses the river to Weybridge and follows towpaths back towards the Club Site. Route Overview Category: Walking Rating: Unrated Surface: Smooth Date Published: 24th November 2017 Difficulty: Easy Length: 8.740 km / 5.46 mi Last Modified: 15th December 2017 Description A pleasant five-and-a-half-mile walk from Chertsey Club Site that follows the meandering Thames to Shepperton, crosses the Thames to Weybridge and follows towpaths back towards the Club Site. The walk is mainly on quiet paths, towpaths and lanes, with very little traffic, but do take care on the busier stretch of road nearest the Club Site. The walk crosses Dumsey Meadow and joins the towpath along the Thames before reaching The Thames Court pub near Pharaoh's Island where you can relax and refuel ahead of the onward stretch. It crosses the Thames at Shepperton, so you will need a few spare coins (singles are £2 adults, £1 children, extra for bikes) and follows the Wey Navigation before crossing Chertsey Meads back to the site. Waypoints (51.38984; -0.48944) Leave the site via the main entrance and head left towards the bridge over the Thames. Take great care on the narrow path over the bridge itself, then once across, you'll need to cross to the other side of the road and take the path down on to Dumsey Meadow, immediately at the end of the bridge.

  • Overview and Scrutiny Committee 17 March 2020
    Overview and Scrutiny Committee 17 March 2020 Title River Thames Task Group Purpose of the report To note Report Author Jackie Taylor Group Head of Neighbourhood Services Cabinet Member Councillor Richard Barratt Confidential No Corporate Priority Economic Development Recommendations The committee are asked to note the actions and achievements of the River Thames Task Group (RTTG) Reason for Not applicable Recommendation 1. Key issues 1.1 The River Thames Task Group (RTTG) was set up in September 2018 to improve and enhance access and activities for Spelthorne’s prime 12 mile border on the Thames. 1.2 The task group aims to achieve this by working practically with river-users, partners and the community. To this end the committee’s membership includes people from river interest groups, businesses and other relevant organisations and individuals who share a common interest in the river. 1.3 The task group aims to inspire, motivate and deliver short, medium and long term improvements along the river, engaging with the community through practical participation and by engendering a local sense of ownership and responsibility. 1.4 The Thames has a great deal to offer - from daily boat trips to simply wandering along its banks and enjoying its tranquil scenery. The locks enjoy a deserved reputation for attractively maintained gardens including those at Penton Hook, Chertsey, Shepperton and Sunbury. Many of Spelthorne's attractive parks and open spaces are also situated beside the river, and include: Lammas Recreation Ground, Staines Laleham Park, Laleham Shepperton Tow Path, Shepperton Manor Park, Shepperton Riverside walks in Sunbury 1.5 In October 2019 a river boat event took place which enabled over 40 passengers including residents, river groups, river users, councillors, MOP and officers on a trip from Staines through to Sunbury.
