  • Birds Quarry, Todber Information
    DORSET LOCAL GEOLOGICAL SITES SURVEY Site number G ST71/11 Site name Todber quarries, Birds Quarry Summary description Jurassic, Corallian Group, Todber Freestone and Clavellata Beds Birds quarry is the westernmost of a complex which constitutes the type section of the Todber Freestone. It shows a 3.5m section. Site description Jurassic, Corallian Group, Todber Freestone and Clavellata Beds Birds Quarry has been used as a premix depot by Hansons for some years, and has been kept clear of vegetation by volunteers from the OUGS, DGAG and DIGS. The section which remains clear is the most easily accessible of the complex of quarries that constitute the type section of the Todber Freestone. There is a 3.5m section of current bedded, fine grained oosparite limestone containing scattered bivalve and coral fragments. The face runs east/west. The rock is false bedded, consisting of one massive unit with cross-bedding dipping to the north east. The Todber Freestone has been used for building over a wide area of North Dorset, though much of the historic building stone came from Marnhull. Close to Marnhull the stone is paler in colour, containing less iron than the same beds in Gannets’ and other quarries near Todber crossroads. Above the Todber Freestone, in apparently horizontal beds giving the appearance of a disconformity, is the lowest part of the Trigonia Clavellata Beds. These beds contain many bivalve fossils, and are therefore less suitable for building. The section at Bird’s quarry was illustrated by Blake and Hudleston in 1877. Published references: Blake JF & Hudleston WH, 1877: On the Corallian rocks of England.

  • Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the Differences Between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas
    Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the differences between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas This document should be read in conjunction with the School Places Strategy 2017 – 2022 and provides an explanation of the differences between the Wiltshire Community Areas served by the Area Boards and the School Planning Areas. The Strategy is primarily a school place planning tool which, by necessity, is written from the perspective of the School Planning Areas. A School Planning Area (SPA) is defined as the area(s) served by a Secondary School and therefore includes all primary schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into that secondary school. As these areas can differ from the community areas, this addendum is a reference tool to aid interested parties from the Community Area/Area Board to define which SPA includes the schools covered by their Community Area. It is therefore written from the Community Area standpoint. Amesbury The Amesbury Community Area and Area Board covers Amesbury town and surrounding parishes of Tilshead, Orcheston, Shrewton, Figheldean, Netheravon, Enford, Durrington (including Larkhill), Milston, Bulford, Cholderton, Wilsford & Lake, The Woodfords and Great Durnford. It encompasses the secondary schools The Stonehenge School in Amesbury and Avon Valley College in Durrington and includes primary schools which feed into secondary provision in the Community Areas of Durrington, Lavington and Salisbury. However, the School Planning Area (SPA) is based on the area(s) served by the Secondary Schools and covers schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into either The Stonehenge School in Amesbury or Avon Valley College in Durrington.
