  • The Bridgtonian
    THE BRIDGTONIAN AUTUMN 2018 Members : Free Non-Members : £1.75 Editorial Your magazine for Autumn 2018 is a few weeks late but here it is at last. Your editor has had a difficult time putting together the society’s latest book. Even more difficulties have been encountered trying to get it printed. However, success has come eventually as a glance at the front cover of this magazine will confirm. The book is, of course, the second volume in the “History of Bridgtown” series and deals with our Industrial Heritage. It all started with the edge tool industry. Without the edge tool industry there would probably never have been a Bridgtown in the first place. The book will be on sale at our Open Day on Sunday 2nd December. I hope that we shall be seeing most of you at our Open Day on 2nd December. Look for more details within this magazine. Don’t forget that this year it is at ~The Bethel”. We have discovered quite a lot of new photographs for you to see and, as we will be in December, refreshments will include mince pies this year! I would like to take this opportunity to record my thanks to Katherine Page for rescuing the society in its times of need this year. Twice she has “stood in” when we have found ourselves without a speaker and she has also taken over from David Battersby in fulfilling the role of finding our regular monthly speakers for the future. This is a difficult and unrewarding job, but Katherine is doing well at it and she has almost completed the 2019 programme already.

Licence number AL50684A 42213/01/SPM/CR 16540584v2 17266182v3 Cannock Chase Economic Development Needs Assessment : Final Report Executive Summary Lichfields was appointed by Cannock Chase District Council [CCDC] to undertake an update to its Employment Land evidence base in November 2018. CCDC is currently in the process of preparing a new Local Plan for the period 2018 to 2036 and is therefore reviewing its existing employment land evidence on the supply and demand of employment land in the District. The EDNA will therefore form a key part of the evidence base for the emerging Local Plan, identifying future growth needs across Cannock Chase within the national and local planning policy context. The EDNA follows the requirements set out in the revised National Planning Policy Framework and Planning Practice Guidance with regards to planning for economic development needs. Both quantitative and qualitative methods have been used to assess the need for, and supply of, employment land. This involved analysis of economic, demographic and commercial property market data, and consultation with a range of stakeholders including commercial agents, economic development and business organisations, and a survey of local businesses. The purpose of the EDNA is to provide the Council with an understanding of the current and potential future requirements for employment land and how this aligns with current stock of B-Class employment land in the District.

This will mean many different things in many different and often far-flung parts of the world. But, to be successful, it must also have real meaning in our own backyard – in Germany, the largest country in our shared European Union, a vital political and economic partner, a fertile landscape for Irish culture and an innovative and global player of more than 80 million people in today’s shifting world.
