Results 5. ,The C NEWS Number 355 – November 2019 Village Website: www.compton-surrey.co.uk PUBLISHED BY COMPTON VILLAGE ASSOCIATION Editor: Jane Turner, Inwood House, Hog’s Back, Farnham, Surrey GU10 1HE Telephone: 01483 810789. 07763 146448. Email: [email protected] PARISH COUNCIL COMPTON PARISH COUNCIL IN THE HIGH COURT. Earlier this year, immediately before the local elections, Guildford Borough Council adopted a new Local Plan, setting out its aspirations for housing, development and other areas of local government. This plan included a proposal to build 1,800 homes on the Blackwell Farm site, much of which lies within Compton Parish and all of which is within the Metropolitan Green Belt. Compton Parish Council, after consulting through public meetings, resolved to challenge this Plan, the basis for the housing numbers, the way the inspector conducted the hearings and the manner in which it was adopted by GBC. Our advice was that the dwelling numbers (at 37% above the Council's own objective assessment of housing need) could not be justified, and the extra road traffic generated would be enormously harmful to Compton village. Our challenge, together with the challenges from two other parties, will be heard at the Law Courts in the Strand, London on Tuesday 5th, Wednesday 6th & Thursday 7th November, as a Section 113 Challenge. The hearing will be open to the public from 10.30am to 4.30pm. You are very welcome to attend and support our legal team. Mobile phones are permitted in the courtroom but you are warned that if they go off, you are liable to be in Contempt of Court so it is important to keep all devices on silent! BE ALERT! Following a recent burglary near Spiceall, it has become apparent that the perpetrators were watching the property from a car parked close by for some time before they broke in. This behaviour has been seen elsewhere in the parish, so we ask everyone to be alert to people sitting in a car without apparent purpose, and to take a note of the number plate if you are at all suspicious. SAVE HOGS BACK APPEAL To date, the SAVE HOGS BACK appeal has raised £6,270 towards Compton Parish Council’s legal challenge, with a further £2,760 raised in cheques/PayPal payments, and an anonymous pledge of £1,700. Save Hogs Back has already exceeded its initial target of £10,000, but this is just as well given the escalating legal costs that have been created by Guildford Borough Council inviting four developers to take part in the legal proceedings too. Not only has Compton’s QC had to deal with six sets of separate detailed grounds of resistance (from GBC, the Government and four developers) but the developers have pushed for a doubling of the number of days in Court. Save Hogs Back originally embarked on the fundraising campaign so that the Parish Council would be exposed to less financial risk in the event that it lost its legal challenge, but these extra funds have turned out to be much needed. If you wish to make a donation to support the Appeal, go to www.savehogsback.co.uk. Alternatively, you can transfer directly to the Appeal’s bank account: Sort code 20 35 35, Account 33669742, or send a cheque, payable to “Save Hogs Back” to the Treasurer, Neville Bryan, 3 Frog Grove Lane, Wood Street Village, Guildford GU3 3EY.

The original script, by Julie Petrucci & Chris Shinn, has been adapted by Fred Pollard & Frazer Woodhams, who will also direct. London is in the hands of the nefarious Queen Rat (Amy Aiello) as ravenous rodents run riot in the streets, leaving the tired citizens desperate for someone to solve their pest problems. Sweetshop owner Alderman Fitzwarren (Stephen Pugh) has run out of options until an unlikely hero arrives in the form of young fortune- seeker Dick Whittington (Eleanor Selby), fresh-faced and eager to make something of his life. Despite the best efforts of the devious Queen Rat, Dick and his furry feline Tommy (Luke Bevan) work together with their new friends to save the day and embark on an adventure to find the thieving villain which will take them all the way to the exotic island of Mycoco. Come and join Dick on his tremendous adventure, full to the brim with side-splitting jokes, marvellous musical numbers and fun for all the family.

The theatre is owned and directly operated by Guildford Borough Council. The conversion of the building to the Electric Theatre was due to successful lobbying from the Guildford Amateur Theatre Association (GATA) who also provided technical equipment. A legal agreement gives GATA priority booking rights and concessionary hire rates. The Council has been considering the role the theatre plays in contributing to the overall performing arts provision in Guildford. It is important to the Council that any decisions on the future of the Electric Theatre are taken in the context of the other performing arts venues and affordability in light of competing priorities for the Council’s declining revenue budget. A stakeholder workshop was held at the Electric Theatre in March 2014 with an aim to understand the cultural offer, purpose and future of the theatre.

    INTRODUCTION “Begin at the beginning, and go on till you come to the end: then stop.” Named after Lewis Carroll, one of Guildford’s most revered residents, The Carrolls is an exclusive development of just four townhouses and ten apartments. Boasting an unwavering attention to detail and a prime location, moments from Guildford’s picturesque town centre and railway station, The Carrolls is the embodiment of Vanderbilt Homes’ belief in putting exceptional quality at the heart of every home. OVERVIEW “You would have to be half mad to dream me up.” The fantastical world Lewis Carroll created was a masterful journey of the imagination. A much loved counter to the trials of everyday life. The Carrolls elegantly captures this feeling. Beautifully designed and attentively finished, each of the properties within the development represents a harmonious escape from the pressures of modern life. These are homes in the truest sense.
