  • Whitbourne WTW Opened April 1966
    WHITBOURNE WATER TREATMENT WORKS £857,000 water scheme for Bromyard area Whitbourne Water Pumping Station and Treatment Works at the time of its official opening in April 1966 This scheme was first conceived as a result of the government survey of Herefordshire’s water supply needs in the post WW2 era, but it was not approved by the Minister of Housing and Local Government until 1960 when the Herefordshire Water Board was put in place. At the ‘opening’ of the works, which had been designed to supply water to 12,000 people in the Bromyard, Ledbury, Hereford, Leominster & Wigmore rural districts, and meet about one eighth of Herefordshire’s water supply needs, it was described as one of the most modern waterworks in the west Midlands. The pumping and filtration plant had the capacity to supply 805,000 gallons a day from the River Teme (a tributary of the River Severn) through a network of 70 miles of pipeline. It was the single biggest scheme completed by the Herefordshire Water Board. Chairman, Mr SR Southall, said that in the past six years the Board had laid 350 miles of mains - ‘as much as the councils ever laid from the dawn of time until we took over’. He said that the board had made water available to 25,000 people previously without mains supply. To do this, 17 pumping stations and 18 water reservoirs had been built. He added that in addition, ten more pumping stations, six reservoirs and 150 miles of mains were then under construction. ** £100 in 1966 = c£1,585 in 2020.

Ed (hons) Friday 22nd May 2020 Dear Parent/Carer, As Chairs of Governors of the schools in the Herefordshire Marches Federation of Academies we are writing to you today to communicate our shared response to the government’s aim for schools in England to begin to reopen on June 1st. You will by now have received a letter from Peter Box or Maggi Newton outlining the plans for reopening the nine HMFA schools and stating clearly the criteria for reopening. They have our full support as governors for this approach. It has been a challenging time for us all: for the children, for you as parents and carers and for staff in schools. We as governors have been pleased and encouraged at the school communities’ positive response to the challenges and we thank you all for your support throughout the past months. We are proud that the schools within the federation have worked so well together to provide both for children of key workers and for children being home schooled. Staff have continued to plan and deliver education for all children; in school, online and over the phone. We appreciate the positive feedback from parents regarding teachers’ support for pupils throughout the pandemic. On May 10th the government announced that it wanted schools to prepare for partial reopening, ideally from June 1st. Since that time the HMFA leadership team have been considering how this might be possible in each school.

  • Hereford Transport Package January 2019
    Community Consultation Statement Hereford Transport Package Walking, cycling, bus and public space improvements public consultation 1. Overview This Community Consultation Statement sets out how Herefordshire Council (the Council) proposes to undertake the next stage of the Hereford Transport Package consultation. This stage of the consultation focuses on the possible walking, cycling, bus and public space improvement plans. HTP is an important part of our vision, as outlined in our Local Transport Plan and Core Strategy. The Council wants to work with local people and businesses throughout the design and construction of the HTP, to create improvements which work for those travelling through and around the city. Our approach to consultation aims to encourage people to reflect on their existing travel arrangements, and where practical, to choose to walk, cycle or travel by bus more often and reduce car use for shorter journeys. Following positive feedback from our second consultation, we have developed a range of walking, cycling bus and public space improvement plans. We are now asking for public feedback on these plans to help inform the next stage of work. The consultation period will start on Tuesday 29 January 2019 and finish on Monday 11 March 2019. Further consultation will take place later in 2019 as part of the formal planning permission process. 2. Summary of Proposals The Hereford Transport Package is a collection of improvements that aim to improve access to public transport, reduce congestion and create better journeys for those travelling in and around Hereford. HTP includes the Hereford Bypass to the west of the city and a series of walking, cycling, bus and public space improvements to encourage people to travel more safely and sustainably within the city.

  • The Story of a Worcestershire Harris Family – Part 2: the Siblings
    Foreword Through marriage, the male line of descent of our Harris family has Our work on Part Two of our story has brought an added bonus. By links with Clark, Matthews, Price, Jones and Graves families. delving more deeply into the lateral branches of our tree, our findings have thrown new light on the family of our first known ancestor, John Through the siblings of the Harris males and the families of their Harris, who married Mary Clark in Eastham on 30 December 1779. spouses, we are also linked to such diverse family names as Apperley, Baldwin, Birkin, Boulton, Bray, Browning, Butler, Craik, Brian Harris, Cowbridge, February 2012 Davies, Davis, Garbett, Godfrey, Gore, Gould, Griffiths, Hall, Harrod, Hehir, Homer, Hughes, Moon, Passey, Pitt, Postans, Pound, Preece, Prime, Robotham, Sewell, Skyrme, Sprittles, Stinissen, Thomas,Thurston, Tingle, Turner, Twinberrow, Ward, Yarnold and many more. They are part of a network of Harris connections which takes us beyond the boundaries of Worcestershire, Herefordshire and the rest of the British Isles to Belgium, Australia, Canada and the USA. It may come as a surprise that two of the siblings of Edward James Harris who emigrated to Canada before WWI had already married and started a family in England before leaving these shores. They were George and Edith. Even more surprisingly, Agnes and Hubert, who arrived in Canada as singletons, chose partners who were – like themselves – recently arrived ex-pats and married siblings from the same family of Scottish emigrants, the Craiks.

  • Case Studies from Across Rural England of How Rural Communities Have Worked Together During Lockdown Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together
    Case Studies from across Rural England of how rural communities have worked together during lockdown Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together RURAL COMMUNITIES PULLING TOGETHER This booklet details the Case Studies that were provided to the Rural Services Network during the lockdown period of Covid-19 (2020). Organisations were encouraged to respond to three questions: • What initiatives has your local rural community set up in response to COVID-19 national lockdown? • What national initiative would help your organisation do things better in your rural area? • Any other comments? Not all respondents answered all the questions, detailed in this booklet are the answers provided by organisations. Some answers have been edited or amended for reasons of Data Protection and to comply with our constitution. Councillor Cecilia Motley, the Chair of the Rural Services Network said: ‘It is heartwarming to see how our rural communities have come together to support their most vulnerable residents in this difficult time. However, our communities raise a number of important issues which need attention and support from Government. Our rural communities should not be left behind.’ 2 Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together Contents: East Midlands Page 4 East of England Page 15 North East Page 31 North West Page 34 South East Page 38 South West Page 53 West Midlands Page 71 Yorkshire & Humber Page 80 3 Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together EAST MIDLANDS REGION Parish / Local Group: East Drayton Parish Council Region: East Midlands What initiatives has your local rural community set up in response to COVID-19 national lockdown?
