Introduction This document is a draft Galleywood Parish Council (GPC) strategy and contains proposals for the provision of services from the existing Essex County Council (ECC) library building in Galleywood. This strategy paper and proposals was publicly consulted at a public meeting held on 26 January 2019 and has since been adopted by the Parish Council. This document is submitted to ECC in response to the Draft Essex Future Library Services Strategy 2019 – 2024 document published by ECC for a public consultation which ran from 29 November 2018 to 20 February 2019. Residents were encouraged to respond to the ECC consultation by completing the online ECC survey and attending public meetings of the Parish Council (see below) before the 20 February 2019.

Galleywood Parish Council Resolution - 3 December 2018 As a result of the first public meeting in Galleywood by the Parish Council on 3 December 2018 the Parish Council discussed the ECC Draft Strategy with the public then resolved as a Parish Council to: 18-207 Public Consultation on Essex Future Library Services Strategy Members considered the consultation document for the closure of Galleywood Library. 18-207 RESOLVED that Galleywood Parish Council: 1. engages with the County Council ‘Future Library Services Strategy’ and will strive to ensure that the Galleywood Library building remains open, delivering the services required by the community; 2. consider all viable options for partnering services; 3. is open to supporting a community library service subject to further information; 4. set up a Working Party to draft a suitable community proposal for the future use of the Galleywood Library building as part of its contribution to the consultation; 5. publicly consult the proposals in January 2019 prior to the consultation closing date (20 February 2019) in a Galleywood public meeting hosted by the Parish Council; 6. apply for an Asset of Community Value status for the Galleywood Library Draft minutes of the Parish Council meeting 3rd December 2018 Except for item 6. GPC has summarised these actions and their outcomes in this document. 3. Galleywood Parish Council Consultees This document forms the culmination of the GPC’s response on behalf of the community to the ECC’s Public Consultation on Essex Future Library Services Strategy. • The document lays out a commentary on the Draft ECC Library Strategy and provides alternative proposals where these are within the power and scope of the Parish Council; • It disagrees with the Draft ECC strategy for Galleywood and that this consultation is not about the lending book service and all about the Galleywood Library building and the services that are provided at this location; • This consultation response focuses on keeping the building open and providing services that will meet the needs of the Community. The approach taken by GPC had been publicly tested in four public Council meetings with one specifically dedicated public meeting. It is based on evidence provided by ECC and other bodies and feedback from the community and partners. Although GPC has no duty to co-operate with neighbouring parishes and wards it had sought the opinion of the following organisations during the preparation of this document: • Essex County Council • Chelmsford City Council • Great Baddow Parish Council • West Hanningfield Parish Council 3 | P a g e • Sandon Parish Council • Stock Parish Council • Councillor Jenny Chandler – Essex County Councillor for Galleywood The following adjoining Chelmsford City Council Ward Councillors: • Bicknacre and East and West – Councillor Matthew Flack, Councillor Richard Poulter • Galleywood Ward – Councillor Janette Potter, Councillor David Stevenson • Goat Hall Ward – Councillor Anthony McQuiggan, Councillor Freda Mountain • Great Baddow East – Councillor Liz Ahmed, Councillor Stephanie Scott, Councillor Gillian Smith • Great Baddow West – Councillor Jenny Chandler, Councillor Bob Villa • Little Baddow, Danbury and Sandon – Councillor Richard Ambor, Councillor Robert Shepherd, Councillor Ian Wright • South Hanningfield, Stock and Margaretting Ward - Councillor Ian Grundy, Councillor Roy Whitehead (prior to May 2019) 4. Essex Libraries near Galleywood 4 2 X 3 1 X4 2 4 X 4 X 3 4 X 4 | P a g e 5. Some of the Many Things That Happen in Libraries Currently Currently Proposed in in Essex in Galleywood as Galleywood a result of this strategy Books and magazines ✓ ✓ ✓ Book readings, music and ✓ ✓ ✓ events Job clubs and job search ✓ Proposed help Language books and classes ✓ ✓ ✓ Free public network ✓ ✓ ✓ computers Code Clubs ✓ Proposed Baby and Toddler ✓ ✓ ✓ Rhyme times ✓ ✓ ✓ Wi-Fi access ✓ ✓ ✓ Parish Council Office Proposed Health Services (Clinic room) Proposed Refreshments/Cafe Proposed Meeting Room Proposed Adult Classes Proposed After School Homework Proposed (quiet place) 6. What About the Buildings? The current Galleywood Library building is owned by Essex County Council’s Property service and was built in the 1960s. It is in a poor state of repair and maintenance. It comprises of a steel frame, largely brick and glass clad, flat roofed structure. The building houses a main library hall housing the book stock, public computers and reception, an office, a kitchen, a storeroom and toilet. The surrounding space provides some public open space and shared parking including disabled spaces. 7. Resources ECC needs to do more than simply identify savings each year and it must reshape and reimagine services to make them streamline, sustainable and fit for the future. Reducing the size of the library service estate will save on running and capital costs and free up resources to invest in improving other aspects of the service. Withdrawing library services from Tier 4 locations, where they are not required to provide a comprehensive library offer will save an estimated £974,000. By moving Galleywood Library and services to Tier 3 or 4 and taking over the running of the building GPC will not be diminishing the estimated £974,000 sum. 5 | P a g e 8. Visions and Ambitions Galleywood Parish Council would like to: a. see the best libraries are at the heart of the community dovetailing with the Council’s approach to everything from public service to lifelong learning to wellbeing, job seeking, volunteering, education and encouraging more people to get online. Providing an Education and Skills Centre in our local area; b. Co-develop an investment strategy for the Library

  • Memorial to the Fallen of Danbury, 1914 1919
    MEMORIAL TO THE FALLEN OF DANBURY, 1914 1919 1 Men named on the Danbury memorial, and on the tablet within St John ’s Church, Danbury, who lost their lives in the first world war The list of names has been there in the village for all to see since the memorial was put in place in 1926. Now, research has been undertaken to see what we can learn about those men, their lives, their service and their families. The list of names may not be complete. There was no government led undertaking to commemorate the fallen, or central records used; it was up to individual parishes to decide what to do. Maybe there was a parish meeting, or a prominent local person might have set things in motion, or the Royal British Legion, and parishioners would have been asked for the names of those lost. Sometimes men were associated with more than one parish, and would have relatives putting their names forward in each of them. Occasionally people did not wish the name of their loved one to be there, to be seen each time they walked past, a constant reminder of their loss. Various websites have been consulted, namely the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, Findmypast and Forces War Records. My thanks go also to Ian Hook at The Essex Regiment Museum who helped me to track down some of the men and to Alan Ridgway who allowed me to use material from his and Joanne Phillips’ comprehensive study of the lives of the “Great War Heroes of Little Baddow and their Families”, regarding Joseph Brewer and Charles Rodney Wiggins.

  • Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, Little Baddow
    PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARY THE VIRGIN, LITTLE BADDOW. WELCOME ….. to this ancient and interesting church, which has a pleasant and peaceful situation at the northern end of the parish, near the River Chelmer and at the foot of the gentle rise of Danbury Hill, upon the slope of which is situated the main residential area of the parish. People have worshipped here for at least 900 years and throughout its long history, generations of Baddow folk have altered, improved and beautified this ancient building. Today it is still in regular use for Christian worship; the purpose for which it was built. We hope that you will enjoy exploring St Mary‟s and discover its features of interest and beauty. Above all, we hope that you will feel “at home” here in our Father‟s House. No visitor can fail to appreciate the love and care given to this church by its present-day custodians, who have recently spent thousands of pounds upon the building. Please pray for the priest and people whose Spiritual Home this is, and who welcome any contributions that their visitors could spare, to help them keep their ancient church intact and beautiful for future generations to use and enjoy. * * * * * * * * * EXTERIOR The church stands attractively in a trim churchyard, from which the ground descends to the west, thus explaining the unusual arrangement of buttresses which strengthen the sturdy tower. The north-west buttress is diagonal, whereas the south-west corner has angle buttresses. This 52 ft high tower is mostly work of the 14th century and has a fine west doorway with Decorated (early 14th century) window above it.

The appeal is made by Mr Steve Latham (Gladman Developments Ltd) against Chelmsford City Council. The application Ref 14/01791/OUT, is dated 30 October 2014. The development proposed is development of up to 100 dwellings with associated infrastructure, open space and landscaping with all matters reserved except for access. Decision 1. This appeal is allowed and outline planning permission is granted for the development of up to 100 dwellings with associated infrastructure, open space and landscaping at Main Road, Great and Little Leighs, Great Leighs CM13 1NP, in accordance with the terms of the application, reference 14/01791/OUT, dated 30 October 2014, subject to the conditions set out in the attached schedule.

The appeal was made on the grounds of non-determination although subsequent to this the Council resolved that had it been in a position to determine the application, it would have refused it for four reasons. Prior to the start of the Inquiry the Council indicated that it no longer wished to defend its third reason for refusal as following the submission of the appellant’s evidence, information pertaining to current travel to school patterns that were not addressed in the original planning application had been included.
