Woolverstone Parish Council Babergh District Personal Details: Name: Organisation Name: Woolverstone Parish Council Comment text: Submission from Woolverstone Parish Council Thank you for considering our submission to the previous consultation. We were pleased to see that the Commission accepted the importance of the interests and identities of villages on the Shotley peninsula. Furthermore, our historical connectivity through the Berners estate, the road network connections and take the integrity of the area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which covers a large area of the Shotley Peninsula However, we think the proposal for a three member ward is unwieldy and unlikely to facilitate quality representation. We would suggest the following: 1. Shotley and Erwarton becomes a one member ward. This would give good electoral equality. We continue to think this should be called “Ganges” ward reflecting its naval history. 2. We wish a solution could be found to provide to further single councillor wards for Chelmondiston, Woolverstone, Harkstead, Freston, Holbrook, Stutton, Tattingstone, Wherstead and Belstead. Considering physical and historical links the following is possible within the 10% variance. a. Harkstead, Holbrook, Stutton = 2451 (+5%) This ward could be called “Alton”. b. Chelmondiston, Woolverstone, Freston, Wherstead, Tattingstone and Belstead = 2110 (-9.5%) This ward could be called “Berners”. 3. Failing that, we think this should be the 2 councillor ward as it keeps the Shotley peninsula connected historically, architecturally and geographically with common road links and interests. It should be called “Berners” We would be pleased if you would give careful consideration to our proposal for ward changes in this part of Babergh District? Uploaded Documents: None Uploaded .

  • Babergh District Council
    Draft recommendations on the new electoral arrangements for Babergh District Council Consultation response from Babergh District Council Babergh District Council (BDC) considered the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s draft proposals for the warding arrangements in the Babergh District at its meeting on 21 November 2017, and made the following comments and observations: South Eastern Parishes Brantham & Holbrook – It was suggested that Stutton & Holbrook should be joined to form a single member ward and that Brantham & Tattingstone form a second single member ward. This would result in electorates of 2104 and 2661 respectively. It is acknowledged the Brantham & Tattingstone pairing is slightly over the 10% variation threshold from the average electorate however this proposal represents better community linkages. Capel St Mary and East Bergholt – There was general support for single member wards for these areas. Chelmondiston – The Council was keen to ensure that the Boundary Commission uses the correct spelling of Chelmondiston (not Chelmondistan) in its future publications. There were comments from some Councillors that Bentley did not share common links with the other areas included in the proposed Chelmondiston Ward, however there did not appear to be an obvious alternative grouping for Bentley without significant alteration to the scheme for the whole of the South Eastern parishes. Copdock & Washbrook - It would be more appropriate for Great and Little Wenham to either be in a ward with Capel St Mary with which the villages share a vicar and the people go to for shops and doctors etc. Or alternatively with Raydon, Holton St Mary and the other villages in that ward as they border Raydon airfield and share issues concerning Notley Enterprise Park.

  • Babergh Development Framework to 2031
    Summary Document Babergh Development Framework to 2031 Core Strategy Growth Consultation Summer 2010 Babergh Development Framework to 2031 Core Strategy Consultation – Future Growth of Babergh District to 2031 i. Babergh is continuing its work to plan ahead for the district’s long-term future and the first step in this will be the ‘Core Strategy’ part of the Babergh Development Framework (BDF). It is considered that as a starting point for a new Plan, the parameters of future change, development and growth need to be established. ii. It is important to plan for growth and further development to meet future needs of the district, particularly as the Core Strategy will be a long term planning framework. Key questions considered here are growth requirements, the level of housing growth and economic growth to plan for and an outline strategy for how to deliver these. iii. Until recently, future growth targets, particularly those for housing growth, were prescribed in regional level Plans. As these Plans have now been scrapped, there are no given growth targets to use and it is necessary to decide these locally. In planning for the district’s future, a useful sub-division of Babergh can be identified. This is to be used in the BDF and it includes the following 3 main areas: Sudbury / Great Cornard - Western Babergh Hadleigh / Mid Babergh Ipswich Fringe - East Babergh including Shotley peninsula 1. Employment growth in Babergh – determining the scale of growth in employment; plus town centres and tourism 1.1 Babergh is an economically diverse area, with industrial areas at the Ipswich fringe, Sudbury, Hadleigh and Brantham (and other rural areas); traditional retail sectors in the two towns; a high proportion of small businesses; and tourism / leisure based around historic towns / villages and high quality countryside and river estuaries.

  • St Michael's Church
    St Michael’s Church Woolverstone A Brief History A Short History of Woolverstone The Beginnings – Fact or Fiction? The earliest evidence of human habitation is of a bronze age settlement situated on the road leading down to Cat House (by the Marina). Here, flint tools, broken pottery and bones of the period have been found. Legend has it that Woolverstone gets its name from a Danish or Norse chieftain called Wulf. It has been said that where the Church now stands there once stood a large glacial stone. This spot had supposedly been held sacred, and on this stone, Wulf the Rover was said to have sacrificed a poor native in honour of his god, and hence – Wulf’s Stone. The Lords & the People In the Domesday Book we read that there were two manors in the area held by Tostin and Aluric. These comprised of 3 ploughing teams, 3 acres of meadow, 3 villeins and 5 bordars, a Church and 10 acres of land, 5 horses, 8 beasts, 20 hogs, 60 sheep and woodland and pasturing for 15 hogs. Most court rolls that describe the management of the manor in these early days were almost certainly destroyed during the 1381 Peasant’s Revolt. Those that do remain show how the original feudal manor gradually became free of feudal ties. The early tenants gained independence and were free to buy and sell land. The 15th Century inhabitants grazed their stock on commons and in wood pastures, but had to pay rent for this to Lords of the manor. They also grew arable crops in small enclosed fields.
