Museum of English Rural Life Page 1 Of Museum of English Rural Life THE OPEN SPACES SOCIETY SR OSS Records of the Open Spaces Society The Collection covers the year’s 1808 - 1967. The physical extent of the collection is 7 series. Introduction Lord Eversley, the former Liberal MP and minister, founded the Commons Preservation Society in 1865. The aim of the society was to save London commons for the enjoyment and recreation of the public. Its committee members included such important figures as Octavia Hill, the social reformer, Sir Robert Hunter, solicitor and later co-founder of the National Trust, Professor Huxley and the MP's Sir Charles Dilke and James Bryce. Most of the society's members initially came from the south east, so their interests focused on London. In 1899 the Commons Preservation Society amalgamated with the National Footpaths Society, adopting the title Commons Open Spaces Society and Footpath Preservation Society. The shortened name, Open Spaces Society was adopted in the 1980's. The society promoted important pieces of legislation, including the Commons Act of 1876 and 1899. Today it's principal task is advising local authorities, commons committees, voluntary bodies, and the general public on the appropriation of commons and other open spaces. It also scrutinises applications that affect public rights of way. It has no branch organisation but works with local and regional bodies. It's membership, therefore, is small. The society also publishes a quarterly journal as well as a wide variety of literature.

  • Walks Programme: July to September 2021
    LONDON STROLLERS WALKS PROGRAMME: JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2021 NOTES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING COVID-19: Following discussions with Ramblers’ Central Office, it has been confirmed that as organized ‘outdoor physical activity events’, Ramblers’ group walks are exempt from other restrictions on social gatherings. This means that group walks in London can continue to go ahead. Each walk is required to meet certain requirements, including maintenance of a register for Test and Trace purposes, and completion of risk assessments. There is no longer a formal upper limit on numbers for walks; however, since Walk Leaders are still expected to enforce social distancing, and given the difficulties of doing this with large numbers, we are continuing to use a compulsory booking system to limit numbers for the time being. Ramblers’ Central Office has published guidance for those wishing to join group walks. Please be sure to read this carefully before going on a walk. It is available on the main Ramblers’ website at www.ramblers.org.uk. The advice may be summarised as: - face masks must be carried and used, for travel to and from a walk on public transport, and in case of an unexpected incident; - appropriate social distancing must be maintained at all times, especially at stiles or gates; - you should consider bringing your own supply of hand sanitiser, and - don’t share food, drink or equipment with others. Some other important points are as follows: 1. BOOKING YOUR PLACE ON A WALK If you would like to join one of the walks listed below, please book a place by following the instructions given below.

  • The Ecology of Mitcham Common 1984 Report
    THE ECOLOGY OF MITCHAM COMMON THE(A ECOLOGY report on the statusOF MITCHAM of the flora and COMMON fauna) The final report of the "Ecological Survey of Mitcham Common" Supervised by: R.K.A. Morris BSc. FRES Participating authors: R.D. Dunn BSc. A.M. Harvey BSc. J.A. Hollier BSc. ARCS. FRES. C.M. Johnstone Cert. Ecol. Cons. A.D. Sclater BSc. FRES. C. Wilson BSc. Funded by: The Manpower Services Commission Administered by: Merton Community Programme Agency Sponsored by: The Mitcham Common Conservators and the London Borough of Merton Department of Recreation and Arts Report completed and submitted: September 1984. Crown Copyright. Cover photograph: Seven Islands Pond from Mill Hill, September 1974 (Photo Dr P.G. Morris) iv 2016 version This report was produced by a team of recent graduates, employed under the 'Community Programme' and funded by the Manpower Services Commission. The objectives of the Programme were to provide the long-term unemployed with opportunities to train or re- train, so that they might get more permanent work. This Programme funded a considerable number of environmental jobs, and provided the stepping stone for many ecologists to move into mainstream jobs. I have lost contact with most of the team members of this project, but am aware that at least one (apart from me) went onto a successful career in an ecological discipline. Looking back to the year of 1983-84, it is difficult to appreciate the achievement of the team. We commenced work in September 1983 and were due to report in late August 1984. The timing was unfortunate because we were unable to make best use of the year, with the winter occupying most of the project.
