Cooper, Mark From: Egan, Helen Sent: 25 February 2014 16:35 To: Cooper, Mark Subject: FW: Proposed Boundary Chganges Hi Mark, Please see below a submission for West Dorset. Regards, Helen From: JOHN HEAD Sent: 25 February 2014 15:38 To: Reviews@ Subject: Fw: Proposed Boundary Chganges ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: JOHN HEAD To: "[email protected]" <[email protected] Sent: Tuesday, 25 February 2014, 10:18 Subject: Proposed Boundary Chganges I have heard that under the above, it is proposed that Chetnole should be separated from Yetminster and is to become part of a Frome Valley Ward with Sydling St.Nicholas, Cattistock and Frome St. Quentin. With respect - this makes no sense at all if Community Identity is to be given any credence as a criteria to be considered. People living in Chetnole have close connections with Yetminster ( primary schooling/Health Centre/ Benefice) and with Leigh ( joint sports clubs/garden club/Poetry Club etc). We have no community connections whatsoever with Sydling St. Nicholas, Cattistock and Frome St. Quentin! Geographically, they are the other side of Melbury Down. The inhabitants of Chetnole will surely feel they are completely isolated from all they have been familiar with. District Council matters affecting Chetnole will have no bearing on Sydling St Nicholas,Cattistock or Frome St. Quentin - they are too far away, with no common boundaries with Chetnole and vice versa. Please do not isolate us from all we have known and developed with. 38 Cooper, Mark From: Bowden, Tim Sent: 12 March 2014 14:25 To: Cooper, Mark Subject: FW: Chetnole and Stockward ward boundaries Tim Bowden Review Manager Local Government Boundary Commission for England Layden House 76-86 Turnmill Street London EC1M 5LG Tel: 020 7664 8514 www.lgbce.org.uk It would help us if you would take a few minutes to answer a few questions about your experience of how we dealt with you. How are we doing? - Click on this link to give us your views From: Maggie Henry Sent: 12 March 2014 13:13 To: Reviews@ Subject: Chetnole and Stockward ward boundaries Dear Sirs, I'm writing to protest in the strongest terms at Local Government Boundary Commission proposals to remove Chetnole and Stockwood from Yetminster Ward, and combine us with Frome Valley Ward. Here are some very good reasons why Chetnole and Stockwood should remain in Yetminster Ward: • Our children attend St Andrews Primary School in Yetminster – we are in the catchment area, or the Gryphon in Sherborne together with children from the Yetminster Ward • Our church is part of the Wriggle Valley Benefice – we are served by the same Vicar as Yetminster and regularly have joint services as part of the same community • We are served by the Yetminster Health Centre • We use the post office and shop in Yetminster or Leigh – these are our nearest services and we support them • Our children and young people are enrolled in Beaver/Cub/Scout and Guide groups in Yetminster • As a community we are regularly involved in inter-village sporting and cultural events with Yetminster. In short, we are part of the same community – our lives and interests are linked. You only have to look at the map to see that we are next door neighbours. 35 In contrast, I do not know of any meaningful links between our community and the Frome Valley Ward, or the Halstock Ward which had been suggested previously. The majority of our residents will have no reason to visit either of these areas on a regular basis. It follows then that a councillor serving any other ward other than Yetminster would have no reason to look after the interests of Chetnole and Stockwood residents. We would be isolated from all meaningful representation. Please use your geographical and community-minded common sense. Yours faithfully, Margaret Henry 36 Cooper, Mark From: Egan, Helen Sent: 17 March 2014 09:33 To: Cooper, Mark Subject: FW: Local Boundary Commission - Proposals for Chetnole Hi Mark, Please see below a submission for West Dorset. Regards, Helen From: Anne Hirst Sent: 14 March 2014 18:35 To: Reviews@ Subject: Local Boundary Commission - Proposals for Chetnole I wish to object in the strongest possible terms to the proposal to remove Chetnole from Yetminster Ward. Such a course would disrupt our village's long-established and effective local identification and effective working relationship with Yetminster. These have evolved because of our close proximity, resulting in associated social and church activities e.g. we share an Anglican priest, a valued primary school, a post office and shops, as well as local roads. We have no connections with the villages of the proposed Frome Valley Ward, and are unlikely to develop any in view of their disparate locations. The effects of the proposed move would be detrimental to our communities. As I assume this is not your intention, I beg you to reconsider before any further steps are taken. ANNE HIRST 32 Cooper, Mark From: Fuller, Heather Sent: 13 March 2014 09:21 To: Cooper, Mark Subject: FW: LGBC - Have your say From: EDWIN HIRST Sent: 12 March 2014 18:35 To: Reviews@ Subject: LGBC - Have your say Chetnole should stay with Yetminster ward:- 1 They have been linked for many decades 2 It is geographically linked - less than 3.5 kms 3 It is socially linked:- a By church groups b By various societies and organisations 4 It comprises a component part of the locations covered by the Wiggle Valley Magazine 5 People know and associate with people from both villages - hardly anyone knows any of the people mentioned in the proposed connections. A DISASTROUS PLAN WITH BUILT IN FAILURE !!!! 34 Cooper, Mark From: Fuller, Heather Sent: 25 April 2014 14:22 To: Cooper, Mark Subject: FW: West Dorset Boundaries Review From: Helenhughes Sent: 25 April 2014 09:14 To: Reviews@ Subject: Fwd: West Dorset Boundaries Review Sent from my iPad Begin forwarded message: From: Date: 20 April 2014 20:38:28 BST To: <[email protected]> Subject: West Dorset Boundaries Review Dear Madam/Sir I totally concur with the points raised below and wish to have my views recorded too. Many thanks Helen Hughes Dear Sir, I have no objection in principle to the reduction in size of West Dorset District Council. However I am disappointed to see the proposal that Charmouth be split from Wooton‐Fitzpaine, with Charmouth forming part of Lyme Regis and Wooton‐Fitzpaine forming part of a large ward composed of an increased number of parishes. Lyme is a very commercial urban area, with a plethora of social problems, as reported regularly in the local press. Every month one reads of rudeness, bad manners and yobbish behaviour, and that is only the Town Council meetings! Charmouth is far more rural, its unique selling point is that its beach and foreshore are not commercialised. Our values are not shared by Lyme Regis. In contrast Charmouth and Wooton have joint societies, and many Wooton residents choose Charmouth for shopping, medical and recreational facilities. The proposed arrangements for Wooton link it to other parishes where the only connection appears to be that the A35 runs close to them. Assuming a diligent Councillor is elected for this ward he/she will have a significantly greater number of parish meetings to attend, if they are to have any chance of reflecting the views of, and reporting back to, the electorate of their ward. If one is searching to balance numbers with Charmouth a grouping with Char Valley and Chideock would be a more homogenous group with more closely aligned interests and values. 1 I hope you will reconsider your proposals Yours Faithfully R Hughes 2 Cooper, Mark From: Fuller, Heather Sent: 22 April 2014 09:29 To: Cooper, Mark Subject: FW: West Dorset Boundaries Review From: Sent: 20 April 2014 20:38 To: Reviews@ Subject: West Dorset Boundaries Review Dear Sir, I have no objection in principle to the reduction in size of West Dorset District Council.

  • Church and Churchyard Memorial Inscriptions
    CHURCH AND CHURCHYARD MEMORIAL INSCRIPTIONS St MARY’S CHURCH FROME St QUINTIN INTRODUCTION Transcripts of the memorial stones in the church and churchyard of St. Mary’s Church, Frome St. Quintin were first made in 1986 by members of the Frome Valley History Society, led by Wendy Wright of Holywell House, Holywell.. The work was revised in 2009 by Graham and Jennifer Browne of Frome Farm House, Frome St. Quintin. The transcripts have been made to the best of our ability, bearing in mind the effects of weathering over sometimes quite a long period of time, and we believe them to be a true record of the material at the time of reading. In reading the following transcripts, the slashes represent the end of the line on the tombstone or memorial to guide the readers in finding the actual words for themselves. Where there is doubt about the actual wording due to erosion of the materials, either question marks or dashes will be found. The numbers on the plan reflect those of the typescript records. For further details of the men whose names appear on the two war memorials in the church, refer to the ‘Book of Remembrance’.

  • Passengers to Get Faster Journeys Between Somerset and Dorset Following Bridge Renewal at Yetminster
    Passengers to get faster journeys between Somerset and Dorset following bridge renewal at Yetminster January 17, 2020 Network Rail is to carry out upgrades between Castle Cary and Weymouth over a series of weekends this spring to provide passengers with a more reliable railway and faster journeys. Between January and April, engineers will strengthen tunnels, bridges and refurbish and renew track on the Heart of Wessex line, which links Weymouth and Bristol. The main area of work is at Yetminster in Dorset where a 129-year-old bridge crossing the River Wriggle will be renewed. This requires the closure of the line for six days between Yeovil Pen Mill and Weymouth from Saturday 15 February to Friday 21 February when buses will replace trains. Replacement transport will run between Weymouth and Yeovil Pen Mill to connect with Great Western Railway (GWR) train services towards Bristol Temple Meads. Engineers will work around the clock to replace the deck of Yetminster river bridge, providing a new, a more reliable support for track. There will also be further closures over four weekends to complete the other upgrades to the line. With the new bridge deck installed, a long-standing speed restriction will be removed to provide passengers with faster journeys between Somerset and Dorset, whilst reducing maintenance requirements in the future. Mark Killick, Network Rail Wessex route director, said: “There is never a good time to close an important line for the area’s communities, and we are sorry for the inconvenience the closures will cause. “This significant piece of work to the bridge will be much easier to maintain and together with a reinforced tunnel and new and refurbished track, there will be a much more reliable railway and better journeys for our passengers.” James Wilcox, GWR’s Station Manager for Castle Cary, said: “This package of works will improve reliability on the route for years to come, and once complete and the speed restriction lifted, this will allow us the opportunity to improve journeys times.

  • Coarse Fishing Close Season on English Rivers
    Coarse fishing close season on English rivers Appendix 1 – Current coarse fish close season arrangements The close season on different waters In England, there is a coarse fish close season on all rivers, some canals and some stillwaters. This has not always been the case. In the 1990s, only around 60% of the canal network had a close season and in some regions, the close season had been dispensed with on all stillwaters. Stillwaters In 1995, following consultation, government confirmed a national byelaw which retained the coarse fish close season on rivers, streams, drains and canals, but dispensed with it on most stillwaters. The rationale was twofold: • Most stillwaters are discrete waterbodies in single ownership. Fishery owners can apply bespoke angling restrictions to protect their stocks, including non-statutory close times. • The close season had been dispensed with on many stillwaters prior to 1995 without apparent detriment to those fisheries. This presented strong evidence in favour of removing it. The close season is retained on some Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads, as a precaution against possible damage to sensitive wildlife - see Appendix 1. This consultation is not seeking views on whether the close season should be retained on these stillwaters While most stillwater fishery managers have not re-imposed their own close season rules, some have, either adopting the same dates as apply to rivers or tailoring them to their waters' specific needs. Canals The Environment Agency commissioned a research project in 1997 to examine the evidence around the close season on canals to identify whether or not angling during the close season was detrimental to canal fisheries.
