  • HELMDON VOICE Winter 2014
    HELMDON VOICE www.helmdon.com Winter 2014 New stone wall marks the Station Road entrance to Helmdon The end of January saw the unveiling of a stone wall at the top of Station Road. The structure consists of a pillar on one side of the road and a pillar and small wall on the other and was designed by Clare Nash, an architect who lives in the village, and who gave her time voluntarily. The majority of the stone used is Helmdon stone, kindly donated by Mike and Julia O’Brien. Patrick Gartside, a local builder with family connections in Helmdon, constructed the wall which commemorates the Queen’s Jubilee of 2012. Patrick Gartside and Clare Nash It was funded both from reserves held by Helmdon Parish Council and from a grant from South Northants Council under the New Homes Bonus Scheme. HYHO has also pledged £200. The aim of the project is to enhance the environment at the village entrance and hopefully to deter drivers from dropping litter. SNC consults on the Local Plan South Northamptonshire Council (SNC) has commenced the preparation of a Local Plan which will be the main land- use planning document for the district. It will guide the decision-making process for future planning applications across South Northamptonshire, including those in Helmdon. SNC consulted Helmdon Parish Council about the plan and the parish council responded using information and evidence gathered by the Helmdon Parish Plan Group (HPPG). The HPPG met twice before Christmas and once afterwards to review data gathered for the original Helmdon Parish Plan (2003/4) and for the Parish Plan Refresh (2011) as well as looking at feedback from residents submitted over Christmas (thanks to those people that responded!).

Such was their enthusiasm that the work has expanded into looking at other aspects, notably the Roll of Honour of Old Boys of Helmdon School Who Served in the First World War. First published in 2014, this 2016 update includes newly discovered facts and stories. The most relevant, up-to-date information available has been put together and can be printed off as a booklet. It is to be hoped that it will not only add to the history of Helmdon but that it will go some way to honour the great sacrifice made by those village servicemen. The authors apologise that some entries do not contain as much detail as others; available records are not always fruitful.

  • The Following Is Detail of the Closure of Towcester High Street for 18 Weeks
    THE FOLLOWING IS DETAIL OF THE CLOSURE OF TOWCESTER HIGH STREET FOR 18 WEEKS. INCLUDING THE CLOSURE OF THE BLISWORTH TURN OF THE A43. THIS IS A LONG PIECE BUT WELL WORTH READING IN FULL. Today I met the representative of Forkers, who are the contractors for the Highways Agency (HA)to discuss the roadworks to the A5 through Towcester starting in July. Not U3A related other than it is going to affect all our members at some point. These will be undertaken in phases over a 18 week period and start just short of the Tove roundabout and go south as far as Marlow road. This will mean the A5 will be closed to through traffic for the entire period although limited access to the frontages will be provided. The laybys and market square will be closed to parking while the relevant phases are undertaken. Work is planned to start at 7am and finish at midnight during the week (2 shifts) then lesser hours over the weekend. The work is necessitated by the collapse of the gas pipe trench and drainage evidenced by the road damage that can be seen through town. The road surface will also be completely resurfaced. The first phase will be a closure of the road from the Tove roundabout to the traffic lights and will take 3 weeks. The next 15 weeks will start with work from Marlow road north to allow the bus companies to reroute services and then the remaining phases through the town centre back to the traffic lights at Brackley Rd/Northampton Rd.
