The objectives of the Trust are educational, and grants are given primarily to those wishing to study at a school, college, or other educational establishment. Applications are particularly welcomed from residents of the Piddle Valley and its immediate neighbourhood. Normally applicants should be nearing the end of their school careers or have left school, though younger children with special educational needs may be considered. At the Trustees’ discretion, expeditions or travel groups for young people which are organised for scientific or cultural purposes may be eligible, provided they contain an educational element. The Trustees give priority to cases involving hardship or difficult family circumstances and where, without some assistance, the desired education, course or activity would not be possible. Special consideration is given to older people who may wish to start training for a particular career or other purpose after normal education has been interrupted. During the past year grants made by the Trust have included those to help university students with accommodation costs and equipment; to provide support for children with specific learning difficulties; and to provide training for adults hoping to change career. Meetings of Trustees to consider applications are held in May, September and January. Those wishing to apply should obtain an application form by writing to The Administrator c/o Piddle Valley First School, Piddletrenthide, DT2 7QL or by emailing [email protected]. Applications by post or email should be received not later than the 15th of the month before the meeting at which they are to be considered. Further details of the Trust can be found at www.bridgeeducationaltrust.org.uk but if you feel that you would like to discuss a possible application with one of the local Trustees, please contact one of the following: Hannah Murphy (348564), Richard Drewe (348253), Nick Harland (348272), Olivia Steven (348909) Richard Drewe, Chairman 22 www.piddlevalley.info 6 www.piddlevalley.info Dates for your diary ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SEPTEMBER 1 Thur Piddle Valley Over 60s outing to Isle of Wight. 9 Fri Mobile Library 9 Fri Macmillan Coffee Morning from 10.00am to 1.00 pm at Piddlehinton Village Hall. 9 Fri Coffee morning with Produce Sale, Memorial Hall, Piddletrenthide 10.30–12 noon 9 Fri Hedgehog Hotel, Memorial Hall Piddletrenthide 7.00pm 10/11 Sat/Sun Ironman Competition 12 Mon Gardens Club Discount shopping at Poundbury Garden Centre 6.45pm 23 Fri Mobile Library 23 Fri Piddle Valley Barn Dance, Piddle Valley First School 7.15-9.30pm 25 Sun Piddlehinton Millennium Green Family Rounders, 2.00pm 26 Mon Gardens Club ‘Back to Nature?

  • Nether Cerne Church Plan
    NETHER CERNE ALL SAINTS MARCH 2021 CHURCH PLAN Part A - Current Report Part B - Survey Results of our open survey conducted in Summer and Autumn 2020, canvassing all community contacts for their reaction to Part A. The survey remains open and available at this location. Please feel free to repeat your survey response or complete the survey for the first time. Part C - Community Recommendations Minutes of any community meetings held to discuss the information available in other parts of the Church Plan. Part D - Action Plan Details of any actions agreed through Community Recommendations, assigned to community participants, Churches Conservation Trust staff, or to the Churches Conservation Trust Local Community Officer specifically. Part A - Current Report Church Introduction & Statement of Significance All Saints Church in Nether Cerne, Dorset, England was built in the late 13th century. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and is a redundant church in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. It was declared redundant on 1 December 1971, and was vested in the Trust on 8 March 1973. The church and adjacent manor house are built of bands of flint and stone. Most of the church dates from the 13th century, although the tower, with its pinnacles and gargoyle, and porch were added in the 15th. The interior of the church includes a melon-shaped 12th century font, believed to date from an earlier church on the same site. Current use (bookings) & voluntary activity All Saints currently enjoys permission from The Church of England for six Sunday services each year and four additional services on an occasional basis.

  • Piddle Valley Conservation Area Review
    Item 14 Council Meeting – 16 January 2018 Piddle Valley Conservation Area review 1. Purpose of report The purpose of this report is to seek the Council’s approval to adopt the draft appraisal and boundary proposal prepared for Piddle Valley Conservation Area. 2. Key issues 2.1 The Council designates and reviews conservation areas in fulfilment of statutory duties under Section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. Purbeck District has twenty five Conservation Areas, twenty-two of which have been appraised and reviewed since their designation, twenty-one of these since 2008. 2.2 A conservation area is a historic built environment designation. The designation promotes the preservation and enhancement of groups of buildings and structures which hold special historic or architectural interest, together with associated spaces and trees. This is primarily achieved through the sensitive management of change within the planning process. 2.3 Paragraph 127 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) highlights the importance of ensuring that conservation area designations are justified. This is the key objective of the boundary review, and ensures fairness in the application of controls, and soundness in case of appeal against planning decisions. 2.4 The Council has a statutory duty to consider the impact of planning proposals upon conservation areas. This is reflected in paragraph 129 of the NPPF, which requires local planning authorities to assess the significance of heritage assets as part of the development management process. Assessment of significance is a key objective of conservation area character appraisals, and therefore provides the Council with an important part of the required evidence base in decision making.

  • Minutes of Puddletown Area Parish Council Meeting Held on Thursday 15Th April, 2010 at Tolpuddle Village Hall, Commencing 7.30P.M
    Minutes of Puddletown Area Parish Council meeting held on Thursday 15th April, 2010 at Tolpuddle Village Hall, commencing 7.30p.m. Present: M Oddy, B Legg, J Hopkin, M Crankshaw, A Sheppard, C Leonard, T White, P Drake Chair: S Buck Clerk: Mrs A Crocker 3 members of the public. PCSO Vicky Hedge The Chairman asked those members of the public present if they would like to make any comments or ask any questions. Mr Tony Gould reported that, in the Village Meeting, they had been talking about the old chapel building where the Martyrs met for worship. It is described as a building of great historic interest and there is talk that the villagers would like to get it restored and it would add to the historical content and heritage of the village. It was built in 1818 but fell into disuse in about 1840 and was replaced by the new chapel in 1862/63. It was originally on a life hold tenancy reverting back to the land owner once the tenant died. It is a project the village would like to take up. This is a grade II* listed building. It was suggested that the way forward would be to involve the owner of the site. The Parish Council would be happy to back any project involving the renovation of the building. M Cooke has already provided them with some contact names and numbers. Bob Dean – adoption of road on Central farm estate. The Clerk will contact the appropriate authority to find out what is happening. It is understood that a financial bond would have been set up to cover this sort of eventuality.
