  • District Council Annual Report March 2019
    District Council Annual Report March 2019 Compiled by Andy Baker, Ward Councillor for Lawford. This will be my last Annual Report for the Ward of Lawford – I am not standing for election in May 2019. Boundary Commission Review/Ward Boundary Changes from 1st May 2019 In 2018 the independent Local Government Boundary Commission for England recommended that the number of Councillors at Tendring District Council (TDC) be reduced, from 60 to 48, which involved the redrawing of Ward Boundaries. Those changes will take place from the local council elections in May 2019 and the Ward of Lawford will be no more. The New Ward of Lawford, Manningtree and Mistley will be a three Member Ward, which means that on Thursday 2nd May 2019 Voters will be required to vote for up to three candidates. There are currently no changes to the three Parish/Town Councils. Local Plan 2013-2033 The Local Plan was submitted in November 2017 and examined in early January 2018. Following that the inspector backed the councils’ submitted figures for housing growth up until 2033 – of 550 new homes each year in Tendring, 716 in Braintree, and 920 in Colchester. His response on housing figures had been delayed from the rest of the Plan after consideration of a late submission from a developer over Tendring’s projected numbers. However, the inspector ruled the councils had accurately predicted housing need based on national guidelines. However he had reservations about the Garden Communities proposals and indicated more work was needed before he could find Part 1 of the Plan sound.

  • East Anglia and the Hopkins Trials, 1645-1647: a County Guide
    East Anglia and the Hopkins Trials, 1645-1647: a County Guide BEDFORDSHIRE TILBROOK While travelling along the border between Bedfordshire and Huntingdonshire in 1646, Stearne and Hopkins received reports of mass meetings of witches at ‘Trilbrook-bushes’, i.e.Tilbrook. However, no further investigation was carried out. Tilbrook (today part of Huntingdonshire) may well have provided fertile ground for witch hunting. In September 1645, the rector Edward Savage was removed from the living as an inveterate delinquent. Among other charges, he was said to have inveighed against Parliament ‘with severall fearfull curses’, saying that ‘he hoped to see them hang in Hell and that there are none belonging to them but rogues and Rascalls’. In his will, made in January 1661, he asked to be buried in his old chancel at Tilbrook ‘from which I have beene most wickedly caste oute’. Stearne, Confirmation, 53; Wal.Rev., 209; TNA, PROB 11/303, fo.80r [will of Edward Savage, 10 December 1659; proved 8 January 1660/1]. CAMBRIDGESHIRE and THE ISLE OF ELY CAMBRIDGE According to John Stearne, one Lendall of Cambridge, a suspected witch, carried herself as if she was outwardly religious, ‘a saint on earth’. Henry More also provided a detailed description of Lendall, her attempted seduction of a young woman of Cambridge, and nocturnal feasts held at her house where many strangers were present and unheard of languages spoken. She may be the same as the woman referred to by the witchcraft sceptic Thomas Ady as ‘formerly reputed an honest woman’, but subsequently executed for witchcraft in 1645 for ‘keeping a tame frog in a box’.
