Polling Places by Ward Essential Reference Paper B Polling Places by Ward East Herts Council (Acting) Returning Officer Explanatory Notes: Electorate totals as at 1 December 2018 Predicted electorate from Planning based on the District Plan site allocations with or without planning permission – homes to be built by 2023/4 prior to the next Polling Place Review. Polling Scheme by Wards Ward: Bishop’s Stortford – All Saints PD Ref Polling Place Name/Address Current Electorate Predicted house building CD All Saints JMI School, Parsonage Lane, 2,910 Bishop’s Stortford CM23 5BE – Move to Parsonage Community Centre (CC) CE All Saints Vestry, Stanstead Road, 848 Bishop’s Stortford CM23 2DY CF Thorn Grove Primary School, Thorn 2,238 Grove, Bishop’s Stortford CM23 5LD Total 5,996 50 Proposed Changes: CD - Proposal is to send voters to nearby polling place of the Parsonage Community Centre (polling District CC) – large hall who can accommodate these additional voters plus sufficient parking places. The Parsonage already has CC electors’ one side of the hall and CD would be on the other side – this would be a double polling station due to the electorate size and being a different ward. The proposal will be trialled at the local elections in May 2019 and further feedback will be taken in to account from the electorate, polling staff, visiting officers and candidates on the day. Comments: CF will always be a double polling station due to its electorate size. We have explored alternative polling provision in the area such as at the hospital but continued use at the school is recommended. Feedback from the May polls 2019 Email from member of the public saying “much better being at the Parsonage Lane Hall for access and egress”.

Comments: The polling allocation will be monitored due to the potential house building over the next 5 years. *Thorley CI polling district has now dropped to 1,831 electors as at 1 March 2019 due to the Community Governance Review changes. Page 2 of 30 Polling Scheme by Wards Ward: Bishop’s Stortford - Meads PD Ref Polling Place Name/Address Current Electorate Predicted house building CA Meeting Rooms, Charringtons House, 2,590 Council Offices, Bishop’s Stortford CM23 2EN CC Parsonage Community Hall, 2,045 Parsonage Lane, Bishop’s Stortford CM23 5PY (plus incorporate voters from CD) Total 4,635 1,100 Proposed Changes: Parsonage Community Centre is a large good venue and the proposal is to send voters from the nearby polling district CD who currently vote at All Saint’s JMI School – refer to Page 1. We have ongoing issues with the school and have been looking to move to alternative voting provision and have explored use of the football club and golf club, however neither have been able to accommodate us. A further alternative considered was to move to Grange Paddocks however due to the new development in this area being at the north of the polling district and the current polling station being right at the south of the polling area this is not being pursued at present until any new sports centre is built on the Grange Paddocks site. Comments: CA - Based at the Council Offices. This is a double station. The Meeting room is a suitable size with good facilities. Due to the significant house building predicted within the next 5 years with over 2,000 potential additional electors within this ward we shall be looking to create an additional polling district with a new polling place. This may well be before the next formal review and mini review of this ward would be undertaken. Page 3 of 30 Polling Scheme by Wards Ward: Bishop’s Stortford - Silverleys PD Ref Polling Place Name/Address Current Electorate Predicted house building BC Bishop’s Park Community Centre, 744 Lancaster Way, Bishop’s Park CM23 4DA CB St Mary’s Catholic School, Windhill, 3,425 Bishop’s Stortford CM23 2NQ (Proposal for temporary move electors to Bishop’s Park Community Centre from May 2019) Total 4,169 1,580 Proposed Changes: Current polling provision is at St Mary’s School. We cannot use that venue in May 2019 due to their building works. We have investigated the possibility of using other schools within the area but none have been forthcoming and none of the schools are in ideal locations for our voters. However we may need to re- approach one of the local primary schools as the current solution is not sustainable long term with some 1,000 houses being built in the ward and we would be looking to allocate voters to a new polling district and community centre once built. A step change approach is to move the current boundary lines of polling districts CB and BC . Currently CB surrounds BC polling district creating a doughnut effect. We feel this is not sustainable and propose to move the housing area from Maze Green Road from CB to BC which will equalize the electorate figure within the two current polling districts. The future change would be to then create a new polling district for the new development north of Hadham Road. Comments: CB – proposal for May 2019 to send all electors to Bishop’s Park Community Centre as we book the whole venue for polling and we shall make the polling place a double station and split the electorate over the two separate rooms. Bishop's Park Community Centre offers two rooms. There is modern kitchen. Suitable for disabled and elderly. Wi-Fi available. Access to ground floor via main entrance. Large Car Park. Kitchen accessible by both rooms. The Community Centre, situated next door to Tesco Supermarket which also has ample free parking. Feedback on the suitability of this venue is welcomed during the May 2019 election. Due to the significant house building predicted within the next 5 years with over 3,000 potential additional electors within this ward we shall be looking to create an additional polling district.

Comments: Two polling districts vote at the same place (CK and KD – Thorley Rural). CL/LC - Thorley Christian Centre will be a double station for all elections. DK – Thorley Rural also votes at the same polling place (Bishop’s Stortford High School) – comes under Much Hadham District ward (see page 19). *1,911 as at 1 March 2019 due to the Community Governance Review.

DD – comments received from polling staff from May polls received from the Chairman of the village Hall about moving back from the church to the village hall for future polls. Comments of the ERO/RO - We had previously used the old village hall. The Church hall is further away from the main settlement; it is the rear of the church which is very dark at night and access difficult if someone was in a wheelchair. We propose to use the new village hall in future which has modern facilities, plenty of parking and is in the centre of the village.

    Consolidated list of Definitive Map (DM) changes since DM2015 to Dec 19 Rosalinde Emrys-Roberts (to June 18) and Richard Cuthbert (Dec 18 on), of the Herts County Council Rights of Way Service, report on progress with the Definitive Map. In December 2015, we sealed our latest Definitive Map—’DM2015’. In future, the working copy of the Definitive Map available on the web will be updated more regularly – probably on a monthly basis. Since that consolidation, the following routes have been added or existing rights of way changed. They are listed by District and the status of the route and its location described. Broxbourne A footpath has been recorded in Cheshunt, leading south from Ashdown Crescent to Cadmore Lane. The footpath crossing the railway west of Dobb’s Weir in Hoddesdon has been diverted over a new railway bridge with steps. In Goffs Oak, a footpath has been recorded connecting Cuffley Hill (just east of Jones Road) northwards to The Drive. Dacorum A new footpath has been dedicated in Kings Langley, leading south east from Footpath 5 alongside the A41 to Footpath 1, adjacent to junction 20 of the M25. A new footpath has been recorded in Potton End, leading north east from Brown’s Spring through woodland to connect with Nettledon & Potton End Footpath 31. The width of the footpath leading from Wilstone Green to Wilstone reservoir has been recorded following enforcement action. In Kings Langley a path round the perimeter of the field north of Lady Meadow has been recorded as a public footpath (Kings Langley 47). East Herts The bridleway crossing the A120 Bishop’s Stortford Bypass south of Wickham Hall is now correctly shown in the Definitive Map records.

  • East Herts District Plan
    East Herts District Plan Strategic March 2017 Land Availability Assessment 1.0 Introduction 1.1 National planning policy requires all Local Planning Authorities to produce a technical study known as the Strategic Land Availability Assessment (SLAA) in order to identify sites with potential for future development. The SLAA has informed work on the District Plan and Neighbourhood Planning. It has also assisted with the identification of future land supply. 1.2 The SLAA is a ‘live’ document in that it should be updated on a regular basis in order to reflect changing circumstances. Therefore, this version of the SLAA presents the most up to date position as at March 2017. 2.0 Methodology 2.1 Paragraphs 019 to 021 of the PPG identify that, when undertaking a SLAA, sites should be considered against three criteria, namely; suitability, availability and achievability. These terms are explained below. Suitability The assessment of suitability takes into account a range of policy constraints. These include environmental and heritage designations, impact on landscape and character, flooding and Green Belt / Rural Area Beyond the Green Belt. Availability A site is considered to be available if there are no legal or ownership issues which would prevent the site coming forward for development. Achievability Achievability is effectively a judgement about the economic viability of a site, and the capacity of the developer to complete the development over a certain period of time. 2.2 Having assessed each site against the three criteria, a conclusion can be reached. If a site is considered to be suitable, available and achievable, then it is regarded as being ‘deliverable’.

  • Issue 9 Community Magazine for Furneux Pelham & Stocking Pelham
    Issue 9 Community magazine for Furneux Pelham & Stocking Pelham Delivered free to all households in Furneux Pelham & Stocking Pelham WELCOME TO THE NINTH EDITION Welcome all to the ninth edition of ‘The Pelhams’ and in particular to our latest local advertisers, Andrew Banks and Simon Langsdale. Please check out their ads. This month, several of our reports happily suggest a tentative step forward after the 2020 lockdown. While neither village hall is able to open to individual hirers yet, both are actively planning for the future, with a refurbishment at Stocking Pelham and the imminent installation of wi-fi in Furneux Pelham. Our local school and pre-school are planning for a very different world when September comes. Both our churches too are gradually re-opening. Thank you to all those concerned who are steering these establishments through the minefield of ever-changing government guidance. Please keep your articles coming – we’d love to showcase the achievements, talents and interests of people of all ages. As ever, keep safe. Contributions to: [email protected] Cover photo The cover shows a sketch of the Hall in Furneux Pelham, signed by the renowned Arts and Crafts artist and etcher Frederick Landseer Griggs. In 1900, he had been commissioned by Macmillan and Company to illustrate the Hertfordshire edition of a new series of county guides. This sketch must have been created at some time between 1900 and 1913, (when the ‘Highways and Byways of Hertfordshire’ was published.) He used his motorcycle to travel between locations, often making two or more drawings in one day.

    GB 0046 D/ECb Hertfordshire Archives and Local Studies This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 13977 The National Archives HERTFORDSHIRE RECORD OFFICE D/ECb Deeds of the Koddesdon Brewery and a number of licensed houses owned or leased by the brevors. Deposited by Messrs. Boulton Sons and Sandeman for the Cannon Brewery. Inventory compiled: LAccession 162] March 1968 D/ECb Introduction This collection consists of deeds incident to the conveyance of the vhole of the Hoddesdon Brewery and all its licensed houses in 1866 and titl e deeds of some of those houses and of others that were acquired later. The expansion of Hoddesdon Brewery dates from its purchase by William Whittingstall from Rene Briand in 1781. From that date til l his death in 1803, rfhittingstall systematically enlarged the brewery*s commercial outlets by buying up a number of public houses in the surrounding district. Messrs. John Christie and George Cathrow bought the property from Vhittingstall's executors and at the death of Cathrow in 1842 it was sold privately to a new partnership of Messrs. Peter Christie, John Back and Robert Hunt. After Peter Christie's death and when 3ack and Hunt had retired to their country estates, the firm was conveyed in 1866 to Charles Peter Christie. On his death in 1898 it was turned into a public company which 30 years later was absorbed by the Cannon Brewery of London, later controlled by Taylor, Valker and Co. and now by the Ind Coope combine.
