  • Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages
    Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages Wiltshire is blessed with a fantastic variety of historic market towns and stunning picturesque villages, each one with something to offer. Here are a sample of Wiltshire’s beautiful market towns and villages. Amesbury Nestling within a loop of the River Avon alongside the A303, just 1½ miles from Stonehenge, historic Amesbury is a destination not to be missed. With recent evidence of a large settlement from 8820BC and a breath-taking Mesolithic collection, Amesbury History Centre will amaze visitors with its story of the town where history began. Bradford on Avon The unspoilt market town of Bradford on Avon offers a mix of delightful shops, restaurants, hotels and bed and breakfasts lining the narrow streets, not to mention a weekly market on Thursdays (8am-4pm). Still a natural focus at the centre of the town, the ancient bridge retains two of its 13th century arches and offers a fabulous view of the hillside above the town - dotted with the old weavers' cottages – and the river bank flanked by 19th century former cloth mills. Calne Calne evolved during the 18th and 19th centuries with the wool industry. Blending the old with the new, much of the original Calne is located along the River Marden where some of the historic buildings still remain. There is also the recently restored Castlefields Park with nature trails and cycle path easily accessible from the town centre. Castle Combe Set within the stunning Wiltshire Cotswolds, Castle Combe is a classically quaint English village. Often referred to as the ‘prettiest village in England’, it has even been featured regularly on the big screen – most recently in Hollywood blockbuster ‘The Wolfman’ and Stephen Spielberg’s ‘War Horse’.

This document provides a screening determination of the need to carry out a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) of the Bremhill Neighbourhood Plan. 1.2. Wiltshire Council, as the ‘Responsible Authority’1 under the SEA Regulations2, is responsible for undertaking this screening process of the Bremhill Neighbourhood Plan. It will determine if the plan is likely to have significant environmental effects, and hence whether SEA is required. 1.3.

Legislative requirements 2.1. The Localism Act 2011 requires neighbourhood plans to comply with EU legislation. The screening procedure outlined in this report meets the requirements of the SEA Directive and Regulations, as introduced in Section 1 of this document. 2.2.

  • Bremhill Draft (April 2021).Pdf
    [Draft text by Dr Louise Ryland-Epton, completed April 2021 apart from the first section and minor checking to be undertaken when restrictions are lifted] BREMHILL LANDSCAPE, SETTLEMENT AND BUILDINGS [not yet completed] LANDOWNERSHIP Before the Reformation the manors of Bremhill, Foxham and Spirthill were in possession of the monks of Malmesbury abbey. The adjacent manor of Stanley belonged to the Cistercian order of Stanley abbey. At the dissolution of the monasteries, these estates were acquired by Sir Edward Bayntun. From the 16th to the 20th century, they were primarily held by non- resident lords. In the 20th century, these estates were sold off as separate farms and small holdings. Bremhill Manor King Athelstan gifted an estate at Bremhill to Malmesbury abbey c.935.1 However, the authenticity of the charter has been questioned.2 A confirmation of the abbey’s land and privileges by Edward in 1065 is also disputed.3 In 1086 the manor of Bremhill was held by the monks of Malmesbury abbey. It paid geld for 38 hides.4 The estate was surrendered to the crown in 1539 and acquired by Sir Edward Bayntun of Bromham (will pr. 1545), vice- chamberlain to five wives of Henry VIII, the following year.5 Sir Edward Bayntun was succeeded by his son, Andrew (d.1564).6 Andrew briefly lost control of his estates, after which financial difficulties led him to entail them to his brother, Edward (d.1593). However, the financial mismanagement continued, and on Andrew’s death in 1564, his brother was involved in a court action to secure the inheritance.

  • Favourite Walks Circular 6 Mile Walk, Mainly Through Bowood Estate This
    Favourite walks Circular 6 mile walk, mainly through Bowood Estate This walk just about allows you to stay within the boundaries of Calne Without but stretches your legs and includes some lovely countryside, especially on the path through Bowood. It is just over 6 miles (nearly 7 if you start from the Lansdowne Arms. 1a Start at the Black Dog Inn/Gurkha Baynjan Restaurant on the A4 (now a fine Nepalese restaurant but still with a public bar), where there is ample car parking and an opportunity for a pre-walk coffee or a post-walk pint, or, for locals, start from your own home. 1b It is also possible, and perhaps more appropriate given the amount of Lansdowne land covered, to start from the Lansdowne Arms in Derry Hill but that does make the walk three- quarters of a mile longer. If starting from the Lansdowne Arms, head east down Church St until, just after Christ Church, you head down Old Road on your right and follow that until reaching the Black Dog Inn/Gurkha Baynjan Restaurant and then follow the instructions from 2. 2 Head east downhill towards Calne on the footpath alongside the A4 for just over half a mile/ 1km. This is the unpleasant part of the walk as the lorries and cars rush past but it is downhill and doesn’t last too long. This is Black Dog Hill, which glories in numerous explanations for its name; I prefer the tale that it was named after a frighteningly large black dog that helped herd (or, on one version, terrorised) the pigs brought from Ireland which overnighted by the River Marden before continuing their journey to London, or were deemed too weak to complete the journey and were thus slaughtered and supplied to the bacon and pie workers of Calne.

It is requested that members support the initiative presented to Full Council on 8th April 2019 by Bristol Avon Rivers Trust (BART), a charitable foundation.

  • My Objections Are As Follows
    From: To: Pearson, Mathew Subject: Chippenham building objection Date: 29 February 2016 11:57:22 I am writing to object to the building of houses to the North and West of Chippenham. My objections are as follows: Transport: An eastern link road is proposed by the developer, this road is required to access the site owned by Chippenham 2020. The developer admitted that the land is land locked and requires access to the town via the ELR. A southern link road is the alternative proposal from the public, which will allow traffic from the A4 at Abbeyfield school to cross the river Avon and arrive at A350 at Lacock. This option is better value for money for the tax payer, and links the A4 to the A350 which is now being dualled, and gives access to the employment areas of Chippenham in the west and Corsham. An ELR requires a substantial river crossing and a rail crossing. Those wishing to travel north in the morning before 0930 can travel through Chippenham Town centre to access the station and reach the A350, therefore an ELR is not required. Please support this alternative. Traffic: The proposed site at Site C the Riverside development of 1500 houses is far in excess of the 850 proposed by the Council in the Chippenham DPD. In addition Chippenham 2020 if successful will build down to the River Marden with a further 1,000 homes. taking into account all the other proposed developments around Chippenham only another 500 houses need to be found. This proposal is excessive and will bring significant traffic problems to the roads of Bremhill parish, and Chippenham town centre.

  • Wilts & Berks Canal
    BREMHILL PARISH HISTORY TRAIL SITE Wilts & Berks Canal 5 The birth of the canal through the Parish At the end of the 18th century raw materials for the Industrial Revolution were in huge demand. This included stone for roads, in addition to coal, which could easily be carried by water transport where canals existed. North Wiltshire and West Berkshire were little served by navigable waterways so an incentive to expand the canal network was a clear trade opportunity. In January 1793 a meeting was held to promote a new canal from Abingdon linking with Bristol. Many further meetings ensued with shareholders of the venture agreeing the appointment of Robert Whitworth, Chief Engineer, and his son William, to survey the landscape and draw plans accordingly. The Bill for commencement was granted in 1795, including navigable cuts from Bremhill to Calne and Pewsham to Chippenham. The largest engineering work on the whole canal line was in the main canal section near Stanley, and required a brick and stone aquaduct across the River Marden. Whitworth designed the structure with two 12’ arches which were built on dry land on one side of the river. The waterway was then diverted through one arch whilst the other was built. Another example of his clever thinking was his rationale to create brick works at strategic points along the canal route. One such brick yard was at Stanley and another at Foxham utilising the Kimmeridge clay that is prevalent in the Marden Vale. As the canal progressed one brick kiln was closed and another built nearer to the construction site and so on.
