  • Peppard Ward Independent News
    Peppard Ward Independent News Putting People First! Why Independent? Cllr Mark Ralph responds: “When I was first asked to stand for election as a Conservative Councillor in 2004, I did so on the basis that I would not compromise my personal principles.” “Jamie Chowdhary’s deselection and the subsequent vendetta against him by those within Reading East Conservative Association was a disgrace. In-fighting and internal politics were already impeding Conservative Councillors’ ability to serve their residents and the behaviour of the Association’s leadership towards Jamie was such that it was no longer an organisation that I wished to belong to.” Other Conservative Councillors left the Association too but have since crept back, no doubt hoping that no one will notice! Mark says: “As a Ward Councillor, I have always followed the principle of ‘People First, Politics Second’ and in addition to people’s day to day concerns, I am now freer to focus on those things that my residents tell me matter most: quality services, safer communities, support for older residents and vulnerable children, protection of the environment, good schools, more school places, and better value for money for the Council Taxpayer.” Thank You! To all those that voted for “Following Jamie’s experience, I fully expect Jamie Chowdhary in the 2012 Cllr Willis and his colleagues within the elections, thank you. Reading East Conservative Association to We were overwhelmed by the conduct a very unpleasant campaign leading number of people that came up to the 2014 elections. forward to support him and on the day, he took just under I hope that people will see this for what it is 800 votes – unprecedented for and judge me on my many achievements for an Independent but, sadly the residents of Peppard Ward.” insufficient for him to retain his position as a Councillor Councillor Mark Ralph T: 0118 948 1615 E: [email protected] Twitter: @Councillor1UK Website: www.PeppardWard.com Promoted by Jamie Chowdhary, on behalf of the Peppard Independents Organisation of, 16c Upton Road, Reading, RG30 4BJ.

  • Proposals for West Berkshire Council. Proposed Wards for Tilehurst, Pangbourne and Purley
    Local Government Boundary Commission for England – proposals for West Berkshire Council. Proposed Wards for Tilehurst, Pangbourne and Purley. This response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England proposals for the restructuring of the wards of West Berkshire Council, is from the West Berkshire Council members for Pangbourne, Purley on Thames and Tilehurst Westwood wards. These are respectively, Pamela Bale, Tim Metcalfe, Rick Jones and Laszlo Zverko. The response is also supported by the members for Tilehurst Birch Copse and Tilehurst Calcot wards. This represents five current wards with 10 members, to be reduced to four wards and eight members in most proposals. The WBC submission to the Commission suggested that Tilehurst comprised three two‐member wards, and that Pangbourne and Purley were combined, also in a two‐member ward (including Sulham & Tidmarsh). The Commission’s own report stated that this arrangement had good electoral quality, but felt that the community boundaries were poor and somewhat arbitrary, even though they are the current Parish boundaries. As a result of this view, the most recent Commission report proposes a radically different division for Purley, Pangbourne, and the central and north areas of Tilehurst. This separates Purley and Pangbourne based upon little community connection, enlarges the central Tilehurst ward area, and because that makes the rest of Tilehurst too small, combines that with Purley. This results in four wards of 1, 3, 2, 2 members. A formal response from WBC most recently suggested that the proposed Tilehurst & Purley Ward be split, though we do not favour that, and commentary in the WBC response should indicate that the case is marginal at best.

  • The Church of the Most Holy Trinity Theale with North Street
    The Church of The Most Holy Trinity Theale with North Street A collection of historical and architectural information about the ‘great church’ at Theale, gathered together with some additional observations by Albert Mars (Abridged version) …… denotes extracted text The full, unabridged text is available in the church or from Brian Gatward Preface Each time I celebrate the Eucharist at Theale I am conscious of the historical nature of the building, a building that has resounded to the sight, sound and action of Christian worship for over 170 years. What is not always as obvious is the context in which the church, through its architects, founders and patrons, has developed in that time. I am very grateful to Mr Albert Mars for the immense amount of work that he has undertaken in producing this history, so that a wider readership might have an insight into the reasons for the Church of The Most Holy Trinity Theale taking the form that it does. The Revd. Geoffrey Borrowdale October 2003 The Church of The Most Holy Trinity Theale with North Street Distinguished Visitors In the year 1833 Isambard Kingdom Brunel was in the Kennet Valley carrying out a survey to determine the route that the main railway line west of Reading was to take. Shortly after its consecration, another 19th century worthy, John Constable the artist, was attracted to the newly built church. He was in the area to carry out a commission at Englefield and made a sketch of the church which is now stored at the British Museum. The Consecration The church of Holy Trinity, which had drawn the interest of these two gentlemen, was consecrated on Tuesday 21st August 1832, by the Bishop of Salisbury, in whose diocese it then stood.
