Bramhall & Cheadle Hulme South Area Committee - 19 April 2018 (ii) Neighbourhood Policing The Chair reported that representatives of Greater Manchester Police had been unable to attend the meeting on this occasion. (iii) Public Question Time Members of the public were invited to put questions to the Chair of the Area Committee on any matters within the powers and duties of the Area Committee, subject to the exclusions set out in the Code of Practice. No public questions were submitted. (iv) Public Realm Emma Warrington (Public Realm Inspector) attended the meeting to report on current issues and to answer questions from Councillors and members of the public in relation to environmental and highways issues within the area represented by the Bramhall and Cheadle Hulme South Area Committee. The following comments were made/ issues raised:- It was requested that the Bramhall South and Woodford ward councillors be provided with additional information in relation to the progression of the proposed resurfacing of Woodford Road to Chester Road, including any provisional dates for the commencement of the works. Concern was expressed in relation to the lack of consultation with ward councillors over the boroughwide removal of the ‘bring’ recycling sites. It was further commented that the removal of the recycling facilities at the Meadway car park in Bramhall may allow for the reconfiguration of the remaining clothing bin and removal of the fencing to allow for the provision of a further four car parking bays. It was commented that the Area Committee had made a contribution of £1,800 for the remediation of the site of the former recycling facility adjacent to the shops on Fountains Road, Cheadle Hulme however only part of the works associated with this had yet been undertaken. It was stated that either the outstanding works needed to be completed or the Area Committee should be reimbursed for the balance of its contribution. An update was requested in relation to the progression of the flood investigation works on Moor Lane, Woodford previously approved by the Area Committee. The double yellow lines on Hazel Road, Cheadle Hulme had not been reinstated following resurfacing work and it was requested that this be attended to as a matter of priority. It was commented that the Council was looking to develop a strategy to deal with ongoing issue of damage to grass verges throughout the Borough. A discussion took place in relation to the potential strategies that might be employed to mitigate against such damage including opposition to the removal of verges and their replacement with tarmac, and that installing physical barriers to prevent damage such as wooden stumps or bollards was expensive and subsequently made it difficult to maintain the verges in the future. Bramhall & Cheadle Hulme South Area Committee - 19 April 2018 It was requested that the Council’s approach to the installation of verge protection measures be circulated to members of the area committee. The Area Committee had previously agreed to the removal of the recycling site at Woods Lane car park, Cheadle Hulme on the basis that this would facilitate the provision of new short stay parking bays. Members reiterated that the additional bays should provide for short stay parking as this was essential to prevent the spaces being occupied throughout the day by staff and visitors to the adjoining Cheadle Hulme High School site. Compressed leaf mulch had obscured the No Waiting At Any Time markings on Station Approach, Cheadle Hulme and blocked the gullies on the road and station car park. RESOLVED – That Emma Warrington be thanked for her attendance. (v) Petitions One petition was submitted on behalf of the residents of the Dairyground Road Estate, signed by 184 signatories requesting action to address the inappropriate use of roads on the estate by heavyweight highway maintenance vehicles, haulage trucks and JCB diggers associated with the operation of an industrial depot from the Pennington Stables site. RESOLVED – That the petition be referred to the Corporate Director for Place Management and Regeneration to respond to the planning enforcement, traffic services, highway maintenance, environmental health issues raised by the petitioners. (vi) Open Forum A representative of the Democratic Services Manager reported that no organisations had indicated that they wished to address the Area Committee as part of the Open Forum arrangements. (vii) Ward Flexibility Funding - Friends of Bramall Hall and Park Harry Hill attended the meeting and submitted an application received on behalf of the Friends of Bramall Hall and Park for a grant of £800 towards the cost of transporting and re-erecting a redundant shed within the park to allow for the storage of tools. RESOLVED - That approval be given to the award of a grant of £800 from the Ward Flexibility Budget (£400 from each of the Bramhall North and Bramhall South & Woodford ward allocations) to the Friends of Bramall Hall and Park towards the cost of transporting and re-erecting a redundant shed within the park to allow for the storage of tools. (viii) Ward Flexibility Funding - Paws and Play in the Park Wendy Green attended the meeting and submitted an application received on behalf of the I Love Bramhall, I Love Cheadle Hulme and Friends of Lumb Lane Park for a grant of £1,250 towards the cost of holding a ‘Paws and Play in the Park’ event at Lumb Lane Park on 7 May 2018. RESOLVED - That approval be given to the award of a grant of £1,250 from the Ward Flexibility Budget (£500 from each of the Bramhall North and Bramhall South & Woodford Bramhall & Cheadle Hulme South Area Committee - 19 April 2018 ward allocations and £250 from the Cheadle Hulme South ward allocation) to I Love Bramhall, I Love Cheadle Hulme and Friends of Lumb Lane Park towards the cost of holding a ‘Paws and Play in the Park’ event at Lumb Lane Park on 7 May 2018. 5. APPLICATIONS FOR THE USE OF PARKS (i) Event application for the use of Bramhall Park (Pentecost Praise) - 13 May 2018 A representative of the Democratic Services Manager submitted a report of the Corporate Director for Place Management & Regeneration (copies of which had been circulated) detailing an application from Churches Together in Bramhall and Woodford to hold a Sunday service on the Croquet Lawn in Bramhall Park on 13 May 2018. RESOLVED – That the application be granted. (ii) Event application for the use of Lumb Lane Recreation Ground (Paws & Play in the Park) - 7 May 2018 A representative of the Democratic Services Manager submitted a report of the Corporate Director for Place Management & Regeneration (copies of which had been circulated) detailing an application received from I Love Bramhall and Cheadle Hulme to hold a community fun day and dog show on Lumb Lane Recreation Ground on 7 May 2018. RESOLVED – That the application be granted. 6. DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS Development applications were submitted.

    COUNTRY IIOIJS1 OF GREATER MANCHESTE * P .•» I COUNTRY HOUSES OF GREATER MANCHESTER EDITORS :J.S.F. WALKER & A.S.TINDALL (;itiL\n<it MANCHESTER ARCHAEOLOGICAL UNIT 1985 osi CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT The country house is part of the diverse and rich heritage of Greater Manchester. This volume follows the development of the country house from the Middle Ages to the present day, using a combination of .archaeological excavation, documentary research and survey to present a coherent study of a building type which reflects the social and economic development of the community in a singularly direct way. By their survival they .demonstrate the entrepreneurial skills of the owner and the abilities of those artisans who built and maintained them. The form and function of the country house change over the centuries, and the fabric of individual buildings mirrors these changes and encapsulates much of the history of the time. Many of our country houses are in good hands, well maintained and with a secure future. Many others described in this volume are already lost, and even the land upon which they stood has been so disturbed as to allow no further site investigation. Their loss, in many cases, was inevitable but I hope that this publication will create an awareness that others, too valuable to be allowed to disappear, are at risk. The protection and refurbishment of old buildings is costly, but I am confident that present conservation policies, allied with improving public and private attitudes towards preservation, have created a strong body of opinion in favour of the constructive re-use of the best of those which survive.

  • AUGUST 2020 Stay Safe
    AUGUST 2020 St Mary's Church is the oldest parish church in Stockport. It stands in Churchgate overlooking the market place. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building. Cover photo courtesy of David Pechey Stay Safe - Stay in Touch Photo-montage courtesy of Bramhall U3A Photography Group August was named in honour of the Roman Emperor, Caesar Augustus (27BC to AD14). After Julius Caesar’s grandnephew Augustus defeated Marc Antony and Cleopatra, and became emperor of Rome, the Roman Senate decided that he too should have a month named after him. The month Sextillus (sex = six) was chosen. Not only did the Senate name a month after Augustus, but it decided that since Julius Caesar’s month, July, had 31 days, Augustus's month should equal it, as under the Roman, or Julian calendar, the months alternated evenly between 30 and 31 days (with the exception of February), which made August 30 days long. So, instead of August having a mere 30 days, it was lengthened to 31, preventing anyone from claiming that Emperor Augustus was saddled with an inferior month.

  • Getting More out of Our Spending
    GETTING MORE OUT OF OUR SPENDING Proposal 1: Museums Offer Portfolio Lead: Citizen Focus and Engagement 1. Summary of Proposal 1.1 The proposal is to meet MTFP savings targets of £0.150m through changes to the operation of museums. This will include: Reduction in the number of the sites from which the Museums Service operates. Changes to opening hours to better match customer demand. Changes to fees and charges. Changes to management structure. 2. Background 2.1 The proposal follows a full internal review of the Council’s museum offer, which will result in a new museums forward plan for the period 2020-2023 delivered within a reduced financial envelope. Stockport Council has a high number of cultural assets compared to other Boroughs in Greater Manchester. This review will focus museum provision on a reduced number of sites and reinvigorating and refreshing the offer at these sites. Alternative uses will be found for any sites that are no longer required for core museum purposes. In some instances, this may provide opportunities for community organisations or volunteers. 2.2 The Council will also adopt a new approach to its use of collections, seeking to display these in different, more accessible locations and increase audience interaction with objects. 3. Scope 3.1 The museum sites in scope of this review are: Air Raid Shelters Bramall Hall Chadkirk Chapel Hatworks (see below) Staircase House Stockport Museum 1 War Memorial Art Gallery 3.2 As part of a separate, but linked, development, the Council has for some time been seeking to refresh and reinvigorate the offer at Hatworks as this site has now been open nearly 20 years.
