Tender prices are currently forecast to stagnate nationally to December 2017 and through to 4Q18 although this will be subject to regional variation’. Costs are capital costs for new provision but exclude specific project details (e.g. difficult access); costs for site remodelling (natural turf pitches); inflation; VAT and land acquisition costs. Costs for enhancement works and drainage have been estimated; these will often be subject to existing budgets and schemes tailored accordingly, 2 Chichester Playing Pitch Strategy: Section 6: Final Action Plans ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 6A CHICHESTER PLAYING PITCH STRATEGY: ACTION PLANS BY SITE AND SUB AREA Site –sport; pitches; quality Partners to rating (NMP = no marked deliver Site ref Site Name pitches) Sport/Issue Options/Action Priority action Timescale Band Cost costs Estimated EAST WEST CORRIDOR CEWC.01 Bishop Luffa CE School, Shared site: 1 1.

It is arranged on the same principle as The Complete Peerage (eight vols., 8vo., 1884-98), by the same Editor, save that the more convenient form of an alphabetical arrangement has, in this case, had to be abandoned for a chronological one; the former being practically impossible in treating of a dignity in which every holder may (and very many actually do) bear a different name from the grantee.

It is rightly famous for its Roman origins, the Cathedral and it’s Close, for its attractive setting between the South Downs and sea, and for the many listed historic buildings which line its principal streets. Since the mid-1970s, when Tthe historic City centre was pedestrianized, it has developed as a significant sub-regional shopping centre which some argue needs to maintain its economic vitality in competition with larger centres in Portsmouth, Brighton and more local out of town shopping centres. and other nearby locations. There is constant and increasing demand for new shops, offices and housing, resulting that can result in a conflict between the preservation of the historic environment and the requirements of commercial businesses. The much larger scale of development now required by these investors is particularlycan be at odds with the small-scale, domestic character of the City and its suburbs.

  • Welcome to VILLAGE
    Welcome to FISHBOURNE VILLAGE Welcome to your new home. We hope you will soon settle in and start to feel part of our friendly and lively community. This Welcome booklet, which has been produced by the Parish Council in conjunction with Fishbourne Church, contains information on services available in the village and in the surrounding area. We hope you will find it useful. The Fishbourne Book (2006) details the recent history of the village. It is now out of print, but Copies are available on loan from Chichester Library. The Parish Council would like to thank their predecessors and especially the former chairman Julian Snell for producing the first edition of this welcome booklet.

Though it has a history stretching back to Roman times, it developed as two separate communities. Old Fishbourne was part of Bosham Parish Council and New Fishbourne part of Chichester City Council until 1987. As a result there was no “Fishbourne voice” on important issues affecting the village.

  • Black's Guide to the South-Eastern Counties of England : Sussex
    M* BLACK'S GUIDE TO THE SOUTH-EASTERN COUNTIES OF ENGLAND. SUSSEX. Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2011 with funding from University of Toronto http://www.archive.org/details/blacksguidetosouOOedin BLACK'S GUIDE SOUTH-EASTERN COUNTIES OF ENGLAND. SUSSEX. SBitjj $ttap anb Htmunras Illustrations. EDINBURGH: ADAM AND CHARLES BLACK. 1861. PRINTED BY R. AND R CLARK, EDINBURGH. — PREFACE. This volume has been carefully compiled from the best topographical authorities, and from the results of the writer's own personal observation In conjunction with its fellow- volumes, it presents a full and comprehensive Guide to the Southern Counties of England, and to the neighbouring islands : exploring a portion of our fatherland, which is eminently attractive from its natural beauties and historical associations. It has been the writer's aim to point out not only the "shady bower" and the rippling stream, the sheltered cove and the " sunny spot of greenery,"—not only the picturesque and beautiful in nature—but all that is " note-worthy in art and science ; whatsoever," to adopt Lord Bacon's stately phrase, "is memorable in the places where we go : churches and monasteries, with the monu- ments which are therein extant ; the walls and fortifications of cities and towns, and so the havens and harbours, antiqui- ties and ruins, colleges, shipping and navies, houses and gardens of state and pleasure, armouries, arsenals and maga- zines of state." It is, therefore, presumed that this volume may be of some service in the library, as well as in the hands of tourist or excursionist. VI PREFACE. Errors will doubtless have crept in, despite of the com- piler's utmost care, and corrections afforded by competent persons will be gratefully acknowledged and adopted.

  • The Following Provides Brief Information About the Photographs Included in the Chichester I-Spy Quiz, with Some Links to Other Sites
    The following provides brief information about the photographs included in the Chichester I-Spy quiz, with some links to other sites. 1. Site of former Shippams Paste factory. Probably Chichester’s best known local firm, dating back to the 18th century and closed in 2002. Now housing retail outlets with apartments above. The former clock and wishbone were reinstated. For more information: http://www.thenovium.org/article/28861/The-History-of- Shippams 2. Noli me Tangere – a 1960 painting by Graham Sutherland, which is displayed on the altar of the Mary Magdalene chapel at the south-eastern corner of the Cathedral. For more information: https://www.chichestercathedral.org.uk/visiting/cathedral-plan/delve-deeper-noli-me-tangere 3. 18th century Sadlers Warehouse, converted to apartments, providing evidence of Chichester’s former commercial base. 4. Wall surrounding part of the Bishop’s Palace Garden. 5. The front entrance of Pallant House, a Grade One listed Queen Anne town house, now housing part of the Pallant House Gallery. Known locally as “Dodo House” because the owner, Henry Peckham, wanted ostriches carved on columns (ostriches appear on his family coat of arms). However the person who carved them had probably never seen an ostrich and they are said to look more like dodos. 6. The Oxmarket Gallery is located within a deconsecrated medieval church (St Andrews), which is a Grade Two * listed building. It is an art centre run by volunteers since the early 1970s. For more information: https://oxmarket.com/ . 7. St John’s the Evangelist’s Church is a Grade One listed building, built in 1812.
