Thank you to everyone who has contributed or advertised. Several parishioners have expressed their appreciation as this valued publication provides news and key contact information for the various organisations in the village. Planning The Parish Council have reviewed many planning applications none have been contentious. There has been no further movement on the potential housing development on Earls Barton road. Re the Borough Council and the local plan, we continue to focus on the need to keep the open spaces we have in the village. Street Lighting The new energy efficient lamps are starting to generate savings. We do have an issue with the light in the amenity garden, working during the day rather than at night, but we hope this will be resolved soon. Speeding We continue to lobby for improvements and increased monitoring from the police. To date we have not received the results from a recent police speed monitoring visit. We do need a few more volunteers to participate in a village Speed Watch scheme. If you would like to volunteer, please contact the Parish Clerk. A polite reminder, please keep to the speed limits within the village and consider other users when parking. Thank you 9( Recreational Park With the aim of replacing the play equipment, the fundraising committee recently held a race night at the club. The event was very well attended and enjoyed by all. We continue to receive complaints about dog fouling in the park. The suggestion to ban all dogs from the park was discussed but the decision was taken not to proceed with this course of action. This public space is for everyone’s enjoyment so please remember to clear up and use the dog bins provided. Wellingborough Prison We still await further details in relation to this development. Website The new Parish website should be live shortly. If you wish for your organisation’s details to be added can you, please contact the Parish Clerk. Thank you To all the people involved in the Scarecrow Festival. Despite the unsettled weather this was a superb, well run and well attended event. Several people from outside the village commented to me on the day that they wished there was an event bringing everyone together in their area. A great time was had by all and a significant amount of money has been distributed across the various groups in the village. No doubt planning will soon start for the Duck Race and the Scarecrow Festival to held in 2019. To Karen Dean who is stepping down from her role as Chair of Governors at the school, your energy, knowledge and biscuits will be very much missed. A welcome to Andy Robinson, the new Chair. Also congratulations to everybody at the school for a superb Ofsted. All the hard work has paid off and has been reflected int he 10( inspectors’ report. To Jack and Carol Hurst handing over the running of Messy Church. The strong foundations you have laid down are very much appreciated. To all my fellow Councillors for your time and commitment. As always, anyone wishing to attend the monthly Parish Council meetings will be very welcome; dates are listed on the website.

  • Village Boundaries
    Appendix 5 Village Boundaries The Plan for the Borough of Wellingborough: Background Paper Date: October 2015 Swanspool House, Doddington Road, Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, NN8 1BP Tel: 01933 229777 DX 12865 www.wellingborough.gov.uk 1.0 Overview 1.1 The aim of this background paper is to assess whether there is any requirement for the Plan for the Borough of Wellingborough (PBW) to include specific policy regarding village boundaries. This paper will provide an overview of what village boundaries are and review existing criteria and existing boundaries in the borough. 1.2 This will be done through: • An assessment of national and local policy guidance • A review of the current criteria used to define village boundaries • A review of existing boundaries in the borough 2.0 Introduction 2.1 Village boundaries are a well utilised planning tool for guiding, controlling and identifying limits to development for an individual village, mainly to prevent the unregulated encroachment of development into the countryside. 2.2 A village boundary is a line that is drawn on a plan around a village, which generally reflects its built form and character. However, the village boundary does not necessarily have to cover the full extent of the village, nor be limited to its built form. Village boundaries also do not need to be contiguous, and can be defined by two or more separate parts where appropriate. 2.3 It is important that village boundaries are based on clear, consistently applied, and easily understandable criteria. 3.0 National and Local Policy Context 3.1 Historically the council has favoured the use of village boundaries.
