  • 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.

  • Chislehurst Conservation Area
    CHISLEHURST CONSERVATION AREA A Study compiled and written for The Chislehurst Society By Mary S Holt August 1992 (updated February 2008) Chislehurst Conservation Area Study Editors note Mary Holt’s 1992 study of the Chislehurst Conservation Area is full of interest at a number of different levels. Not only did she describe the then current features of all the roads in the Conservation Area, she added historical information, which helps make sense of the position at the time she was writing. She also noted the practical issues faced by residents and others going about their business in these areas. Finally, she noted the then understood Conservation Area Objectives. The original study was completed in 1992, and we felt we should bring it up to date in 2008. In doing so, however, we have identified only significant changes which we believe Mary would have wanted to reflect had she been editing the original study now. In fact there are relatively few such changes given the size of the conservation area. These changes are identified in square brackets, so that readers are able to read the original study, and see what changes have been made to it in bringing it up to date. The updated study will be published on the Chislehurst Society’s website, and to make it more accessible in that format, we have changed some of the layout, and added some old photographs of Chislehurst taken in the first three decades of the 20th Century to illustrate the text.

  • Bromley May 2018
    Traffic noise maps of public parks in Bromley May 2018 This document shows traffic noise maps for parks in the borough. The noise maps are taken from http://www.extrium.co.uk/noiseviewer.html. Occasionally, google earth or google map images are included to help the reader identify where the park is located. Similar documents are available for all London Boroughs. These were created as part of research into the impact of traffic noise in London’s parks. They should be read in conjunction with the main report and data analysis which are available at http://www.cprelondon.org.uk/resources/item/2390-noiseinparks. The key to the traffic noise maps is shown here to the right. Orange denotes noise of 55 decibels (dB). Louder noises are denoted by reds and blues with dark blue showing the loudest. Where the maps appear with no colour and are just grey, this means there is no traffic noise of 55dB or above.

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions.

  • Friends of Jubilee Country Park Newsletter Autumn 2018
    Friends of Jubilee Country Park Newsletter Autumn 2018 Welcome to our autumn update by John Bruce Last year, Sue Folkes announced her intention of stepping down as chairman of the Friends of Jubilee Country Park and true to her word, she did so at our AGM in March. Sue had served as chairman for the last four years, but her contribution extended far beyond that role and our immense thanks go to her for all the work she has done. She has designed and set up our website, established databases and electronic filing systems and managed our membership records. Sue has represented us at Bromley Friends Forum, dealt with Bromley Council, and liaised with idverde and many outside bodies. If that weren’t enough, she has also helped to raise considerable funds by growing and selling plants and by making her delicious jams and marmalade. Sue has nurtured and developed a number of important projects including the Woodland Trail and the Digital Nature Trail and you can read all about them in the following articles. The Woodland Trail, which is just being finalised and is largely wheelchair friendly, will be a marked path through Thornet Wood, starting at the car park. This trail joins our Nature Trail, Orienteering Course and a section of The London Loop and is a welcome addition to the signed walks in our park. Following a successful recruitment drive after our open meeting in December, we have expanded the committee to its full complement of roles and the following members were duly elected: Zara Jolly (Secretary), Peter Runacres (Treasurer), Ros Martin (Events), Sylvia Chubbs (Membership), Jennie Randall (Projects Director), Sarah Coulbert (Social Media), Penny Russell (Events) and John Bruce (Chair).
