Unhonoured, unpropitiated… …but waiting, watching and waiting. These fragments of verse are from the beginning of T.S.Eliot’s poem ‘The Dry Salvages’, the third of his ‘Four Quartets’. Those who have suffered trauma, loss, stress and displacement as a result of the December floods understand far better than the rest of us the destructive power of water. Many are continuing to deal with the after-effects. The support of the wider community (so evident at the time) in coming alongside those hit hardest is still needed. Like most in this land, I am fortunate that I am so rarely reminded of my powerlessness in the face of the natural elements, but such events as these latest winter floods cause me to look at the future with greater uncertainty. Nagging questions about climate change and the need for us to adapt our way of life more radically and sacrificially are not going to go away. At least the Bible has never underestimated the power of water. While water is often a symbol of life in scripture, it is also used as a profound symbol of the forces of destruction, chaos, rebellion and death. In some psalms God is portrayed as one who stills both the raging storms at sea and also the raging storms of fear and turmoil in the human heart. In the creation poem at the beginning of Genesis the Spirit of God hovers over the face of the deep – the waters of chaos – and brings forth light, life and order. God is portrayed as commanding the waters to stay in their proper place. In the Gospels Jesus’ words still storms at sea, but also storms in desperate human lives. The connection between the restless turmoil in the human heart and the raging of the elements is worth pondering. Obviously the floods are in no sense any kind of divine retribution for human sin, but isn’t the destruction of the environment driven by unrestrained human appetite and the greed that respects no limits? We have to try to use science and politics to address the problem. If however we are going to address the causes rather than just the symptoms - surely only God can still and recreate the human heart?

For this reason, Landmark's Site Sensitivity maps and Datasheet(s) place great emphasis on statutory data provided by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency; it also incorporates data from Natural England (and the Scottish and Welsh equivalents) and Local Authorities; and highlights hydrogeological features required by environmental and geotechnical consultants. It does not include any information concerning past uses of land. The datasheet is produced by querying the Landmark database to a distance defined by the client from a site boundary provided by the client. In this datasheet the National Grid References (NGRs) are rounded to the nearest 10m in accordance with Landmark's agreements with a number of Data Suppliers.

  • Share Prospectus 2017
    Hallbankgate Hub Ltd: A Community Benefit Society Share Offer You are invited to join a community enterprise providing a shop and cafe in Hallbankgate and a Hub for the village and the surrounding area. There has been a co-operative in the village of Hallbankgate for more than 130 years. It is part of the history and fabric of the village and has been a lifeline for many people. We want to continue this rich tradition of having a shop at the heart of the community. Scottish Midland Co-operative Society took ownership of the village shop in 2013 and closed it at the beginning of June 2015. Hallbankgate Hub Ltd, a Community Benefit Society set up by local people in 2015, then raised funds to buy the premises and re-open a shop combined with a café and community facilities in Hallbankgate. This now provides local residents with an attractive, friendly place that meets most of their shopping needs. By extending the services provided beyond those of a traditional Co-op we hope to ensure that the shop is viable and has a secure and certain future. The Hub is owned and controlled by the community through the Community Benefit Society. It can issue shares to ensure that everybody in the community who wishes can be a part-owner of the business and thus join in the process of deciding its development and its future. If you are not already a shareholder, the Management Committee of the Hub now invites you to buy shares for this purpose. This offer stands open indefinitely.

  • Application Reference No. 1/19/9009. Proposal
    DEVELOPMENT CONTROL AND REGULATION COMMITTEE 31 October 2019 A report by the Acting Executive Director - Economy and Infrastructure _____________________________________________________________________ Application Reference No. 1/19/9009 Application Type: Full Planning Permission Proposal: Change of use to allow imported inert material (construction, demolition and excavation waste) to be screened and processed Location: Silvertop Quarry, Hallbankgate, Brampton, Cumbria Applicant: Thompsons of Prudhoe Ltd Date Valid: 1 August 2019 Reason for Committee Level Decision: Renewal of time limited planning permission. _____________________________________________________________________ 1.0 RECOMMENDATION 1.1 That planning permission be GRANTED subject to conditions set out in Appendix 1 to this report. 2.0 THE PROPOSAL 2.1 Planning permission is sought for change of use to allow imported material (construction, demolition and excavation waste) to be screened and processed, within the quarry void. Planning permission (1/08/9029) was granted on 17 December 2008 to allow “recycling facilities for inert material” - planning permission was granted for a period of 10 years expiring on 16 December 2018. Unfortunately, Thompsons of Prudhoe hadn’t realised the planning permission had lapsed, hence the need now to reapply for full planning permission. 2.2 The site for use is a recycling area of 0.9 ha set within Silvertop Quarry. The application site is at the base of the current void space on the southern boundary of the site. Silvertop Quarry is an active quarry with planning permission expiring in 2042 (1/97/9021). 2.3 Planning permission 1/08/9029 provided a justification for need, that material was being taken to Thompson’s of Prudhoe other licensed premises at Corbridge Northumberland (approximately 30 miles each way) for processing and then returned back to Silvertop Quarry as engineering fill and quality top soil.

  • Village News - Farlam Parish Summer 2020 June to August We L C O M E
    Village News - Farlam Parish Summer 2020 June to August We l c o m e Well, it’s not difficult to pick the main talking point around the world at the moment. Most of us will know or have heard some bad news on friends, relatives or work colleagues who have been infected with COVID-19. Like so many events of this nature, the situation brings out the very best and the very worst in human nature. From the tireless efforts of hospital staff to the ignorance and stupidity of those who chose to ignore lockdown measures, the full range of mankind’s ability to try and save or destroy itself has been shown to us via our TV screens. Looking to the positives, the weather has been really good, and most of us with a garden will have spent a lot more time in it than we had perhaps planned. Our pace of life has slowed down, time to reflect, read more and listen to more music than usual. Baking product sales have never been so good, and baking powder is now as rare as hens teeth! Claire and I have been spending half the working week down at the Hub, where, along with the other volunteers, we have been keeping the shop open and arranging deliveries of food to those self - isolating. The kind and positive feedback from them has kept us going in these difficult times, and a big thank you to all those who are helping in making this happen. What the future holds, no one knows, but the world will certainly have changed for the experience and lets hope that it reacts in a positive and supportive way.
