BOX OFFICE FIND(0118) OUT 969 8000MORE millatsonning.com CONTENTS CONTENTS The Parish Magazine - April 2020 5 The vicar's letter Dear friends, First of all may I wish STAY on Friday a very happy first birthday! It has been a delight indeed to watch how this group of young people and their dedicated volunteer leaders have established this open access youth club and I must pay tribute to Westy for leading this very important new work in our parish and wider community. We now have some 90 young people registered for membership and I know, from numerous sources, just how much they enjoy being part of it. The media, perhaps with some justification, tend to concentrate on bad news stories from churches in this country but here is a very good news story and we should rejoice at that. It will be good to once again host our Easter Saturday event with egg hunt, egg and spoon races, free BBQ, tower tours and parish walk. This will also feature a Messy Church craft stall run by Revd Kate. I must also wish Messy Church a happy second birthday this month. Rev Kate has assembled an excellent team of volunteers who put this on each month and there is always a wonderful atmosphere in The Ark as all those children enjoy imaginative activities, age appropriate worship and a lovely meal. I am very proud of both my colleagues in what they have brought to our work with children and young people and I would like to thank them both. CORONAVIRUS At the time of writing, the Coronavirus is spreading around the country and we’re hearing much about contingency planning. It is anyone’s guess how things will have developed by the time we gather to worship on Easter Day, if indeed we are allowed to. I fully understand that there are many who are fearful, especially those with elderly relatives and friends and it is important that we all seek to follow the advice on preventative measures. On 1 March we ceased shaking hands at church and the use of the common cup in communion as these seemed sensible precautions, especially for our more elderly worshippers. It was good to hear from three members of the congregation who are medical doctors that they approved of our decision. Of course, there is always a temptation to overreact when faced with these invisible viral enemies, but I do also believe that it is valuable for Christians to retain a sense of perspective, not least at this time of Easter. Human beings have faced many such epidemics through the ages, mostly without the benefit of the NHS on hand. Our short lives are fragile and this materialistic, so-called, advanced society has perhaps been lulled into a false sense of security. God has not promised us an easy and illness-free ride through life. The veil between this world and the next can be very thin indeed and sadly some in Britain, maybe many, will succumb to this virus. In the face of this, Christians and even more importantly, non-Christians, need to hear again what God has actually promised us through Jesus; the gift of eternal life. SPIRITUAL FOCUS It is the central message of this Easter season. We are each called to repent of our sins, to turn to the risen Christ and then to submit our lives to Him. If we don’t live our lives as a preparation for eternity, we will have missed entirely the wonderful message of Easter. Whatever happens to our earthly bodies, the empty tomb on that first Easter Sunday proclaims that death need not be the end. So let us keep calm, carry on, and stay focused on what really, ultimately matters, the state of our spiritual health. Happy Easter. Christ is risen!

Aims and Scope Background 1.1 Oxfordshire’s draft Minerals and Waste Core Strategy was published for public consultation in September 2011. A concern was identified in the responses made by the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and North Wessex Downs AONB. This related to potential landscape impacts on the Protected Landscapes of minerals developments within two proposed broad areas for sand and gravel working at Cholsey and Caversham. This study identifies the nature of these impacts, and potential mitigation measures which could help reduce the impacts. 1.2 The impacts identified will refer both to the operational phase of any development, and restoration phases. Recommendations may help to identify potential restoration priorities, and mitigation measures. Aims 1.3 The aim of the study is to carry out an assessment of the potential landscape impacts of minerals development within two proposed areas for mineral working on the setting of Oxfordshire’s AONBs.

  • Traffic Sensitive Streets – Briefing Sheet
    Traffic Sensitive Streets – Briefing Sheet Introduction Oxfordshire County Council has a legal duty to coordinate road works across the county, including those undertaken by utility companies. As part of this duty we can designate certain streets as ‘traffic-sensitive’, which means on these roads we can better regulate the flow of traffic by managing when works happen. For example, no road works in the centre of Henley-on-Thames during the Regatta. Sensitive streets designation is not aimed at prohibiting or limiting options for necessary road works to be undertaken. Instead it is designed to open-up necessary discussions with relevant parties to decide when would be the best time to carry out works. Criteria For a street to be considered as traffic sensitive it must meet at least one of the following criteria as set out in the table below: Traffic sensitive street criteria A The street is one on which at any time, the county council estimates traffic flow to be greater than 500 vehicles per hour per lane of carriageway, excluding bus or cycle lanes B The street is a single carriageway two-way road, the carriageway of which is less than 6.5 metres wide, having a total traffic flow of not less than 600 vehicles per hour C The street falls within a congestion charges area D Traffic flow contains more than 25% heavy commercial vehicles E The street carries in both directions more than eight buses per hour F The street is designated for pre-salting by the county council as part of its programme of winter maintenance G The street is within 100 metres of a critical signalised junction, gyratory or roundabout system H The street, or that part of a street, has a pedestrian flow rate at any time of at least 1300 persons per hour per metre width of footway I The street is on a tourist route or within an area where international, national, or significant major local events take place.

Coles Department of National Heritage Listing Branch 2-4 Cockpur Street London SW1Y 5 DH URGENT Dear Mr Coles Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 Buildings of Special Architectuml or Historic Inter€st I would be grateful ifyou could conside. the building described below for inclusion in the statutory list. I enclose maps and photographs with this application, together with rhe loiiouing inlormarion: I - Parish name: Eye and Dunsden 2. District: South Oxfordshire District Council 3. Address: Eyot House Sonning Eye, Sonning near Reading South Oxfordshire 4. Date ofbuilding: l9O2 5. Specialised function: dwelling house 6. Justification for addition to List: The house was built by Halsey Ricardo for a Mr. Blunt in 1902. It retains all its original architectual features associated with the Arts and Crafts movement ofthe period. Olparticular interest, however, are the tiles. These occur as tile surrounds ofthe Delft twe to 4 fireplaces and as a strip ofWilliam De Morgan tiles of Islamic design over the main d.awing room fireplace. However, the main justification for my request for giving this building protection through listing is the magnificent tile panel by W. De Morgan on a brick wall ofan external loggia. This measures 2.15 m by 1.05 m and has a maritim€ scene with two magnificent ships sailing in fiont ofa classical townscape. The fact that the architect is said to have been Halsey Ricardo ( oral tndition by the family who bought the house from the original owner 13 years after its construction) who had worked with De Morgan makes this house rath€r special.
