It remained an important place in English history for many years and is mentioned in Shakespeare’s Richard II with the line “With all good speed at Plashy (sic) visit me.” Pleshey lies to the northeast of Chelmsford, which was awarded city status in 2012 and offers a wide variety of facilities including a bustling shopping centre and a good choice of excellent private and state schools. It can also boast superb transport links, with a station on the main line to Liverpool Street and access onto the A12. The village pub (the Leather Bottle), Holy Trinity Church and the Village Hall are the hub of the community, with a general store, post office and primary school in the nearby village of Great Waltham and other primary schools in Little Waltham and Ford End. Felsted School is approximately 5 miles easy drive from the property. Park Barn is a converted historic Essex barn set back from the lane in an attractive location on the edge of Pleshey village. The property dates back to the late 18th century and has been sensitively restored and remodelled in 2014/2015 by the current owners under the guidance of Andrew Stevenson Associates of Gt Dunmow. The property is not listed. The contemporary design incorporates a soft red brick plinth, black weather boarded elevations and bespoke timber windows under thatch, clay tile and slate roofs. The magnificent grand hall is flanked by east and west wings and lies at the heart of the barn. It is the largest of the reception rooms, with a vaulted ceiling, an enormous floor to ceiling window that floods the space with natural light and underfloor heating beneath engineered oak. An impressive chimney houses a state-of-the-art wood burner and split levels add to the sense of character, with large French windows at the back of the hall opening directly on to the garden. Staircases at either end lead up to mezzanine floors, one of which leads to a fifth bedroom with en-suite (used principally as guest accommodation given its privacy) and the other to a large storage room. The underfloor heating extends throughout the ground floor reception rooms, which include a cosy sitting room (also known as the “ Winter Lounge”) adjacent to the hall and, in the east wing, a contemporary open plan living space that includes a good sized study (which could be used as a snug) and a large family room with floor to ceiling windows on either side and doors opening onto an attractive courtyard garden. The well designed kitchen is finished in white with Corian worksurfaces, integral appliances and limestone floor, with a good sized utility room and rear lobby beyond. The west wing houses the four principal bedrooms, which include a large, excellently proportioned master bedroom with two sets of French windows leading out onto the garden and the beautiful views beyond, a high specification en suite shower room and extensive bespoke fitted wardrobes. The second and third bedrooms also have views over the surrounding countryside and share an en suite shower room (in a “Jack and Jill” configuration), while a wide, bright hall leads down from the master bedroom suite to the large games room/fourth bedroom. This room also has the benefit of two pairs of French windows leading out onto the courtyard garden and provides fantastic scope for the creation of another bedroom with en-suite configuration. The barn itself sits behind post and rail fencing, Floorplans facing the lane and Park Farm House beyond, and is approached by a long gravel drive sweeping up to Main House gross internal area = 4,106 sq ft / 381 sq m the side of the house.

  • Memorial to the Fallen of Danbury, 1914 1919
    MEMORIAL TO THE FALLEN OF DANBURY, 1914 1919 1 Men named on the Danbury memorial, and on the tablet within St John ’s Church, Danbury, who lost their lives in the first world war The list of names has been there in the village for all to see since the memorial was put in place in 1926. Now, research has been undertaken to see what we can learn about those men, their lives, their service and their families. The list of names may not be complete. There was no government led undertaking to commemorate the fallen, or central records used; it was up to individual parishes to decide what to do. Maybe there was a parish meeting, or a prominent local person might have set things in motion, or the Royal British Legion, and parishioners would have been asked for the names of those lost. Sometimes men were associated with more than one parish, and would have relatives putting their names forward in each of them. Occasionally people did not wish the name of their loved one to be there, to be seen each time they walked past, a constant reminder of their loss. Various websites have been consulted, namely the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, Findmypast and Forces War Records. My thanks go also to Ian Hook at The Essex Regiment Museum who helped me to track down some of the men and to Alan Ridgway who allowed me to use material from his and Joanne Phillips’ comprehensive study of the lives of the “Great War Heroes of Little Baddow and their Families”, regarding Joseph Brewer and Charles Rodney Wiggins.

  • APPENDIX 5A – Schedule of Proposed Policies Map Changes June 2019
    APPENDIX 5A – Schedule of Proposed Policies Map Changes June 2019 Schedule of Proposed Changes to the Pre-Submission Local Plan Policies Map A Planning Inspector is examining the Chelmsford City Council Local Plan as submitted by the Council on 29 June 2018. As part of the examination process a number of proposed modifications to the Pre-Submission Local Plan have been identified. These modifications are either classified as "main" or "additional" modifications and are set out in the updated main and additional modification schedules, March 2019. The policies map is not defined in statute as a development plan document and so the Inspector does not have the power to recommend main modifications to it. However the Council must maintain an adopted policies map which accurately illustrates geographically the application of the policies in the adopted development plan. Therefore, this schedule sets out a number of changes to the policies map which are in response to specific modifications to policies set out in the main modifications schedule. Other changes are also included to reflect the additional modifications schedule. The related main or additional modification reference number is included in the schedule below. Where changes are factual only there is no main or additional modification reference included. Accompanying this schedule are inset maps showing the specific changes in map form, where applicable. Please note maps have not been produced if the only change is to the title. It should be noted that at the point of adoption the latest OS base mapping will be applied to the policies map and insets. This may result in minor changes occurring to notation boundaries.

  • Living in a Conservation Area – a Guide
    Living in a Conservation Area – a guide What is a Conservation Area? A conservation area is defined as an area of “special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance”. This means that when a conservation area is designated, the City Council has recognised that the area has a special character and identity which is worth protecting. There are 25 designated areas within Chelmsford City which includes the historic village centres, such as Pleshey, Little Waltham and Writtle, parts of the City Centre and other areas of character, such as the St Johns Hospital and the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation. Great Baddow conservation area was designated in 1969. The City Council is required by legislation to “preserve or enhance” the character of each conservation area and all new proposals which affect that special character have to be considered in the light of this requirement. What is expected is a sensitive management of change within an area through the planning process rather than no change at all. This can be achieved by the preparation of a character appraisal for each conservation area, policy making, by prudent development management and where necessary enforcement. Character appraisals clearly define and analyses the special architectural or historic interest that warrants the area’s designation, providing a framework for future control and enhancement. The council have a programme of updating its conservation area appraisals, Great Baddow will be reviewed in due course. The current legislation relating to conservation areas is contained within the • Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.

  • Education in Essex 2006/2007
    Determined Admission Arrangements for Community and Voluntary Controlled Infant, Junior and Primary Schools in Essex for 2015/2016 Individual policies and over-subscription criteria are set out in this document in district order. The following information applies: Looked after Children A ‘looked after child’ or a child who was previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption, residence or special guardianship order will be given first priority in oversubscription criteria ahead of all other applicants in accordance with the School Admissions Code 2012. A looked after child is a child who is (a) in the care of a local authority, or (b) being provided with accommodation by a local authority in the exercise of their social services functions (as defined in Section 22(1) of the Children Act 1989). Children with statements of special educational needs Children with statements of special educational needs that name the school on the statement are required to be admitted to a school regardless of their place in the priority order. Age of Admission Essex County Council’s policy is that children born on and between 1 September 2010 and 31 August 2011 would normally commence primary school in Reception in the academic year beginning in September 2015. As required by law, all Essex infant and primary schools provide for the full-time admission of all children offered a place in the Reception year group from the September following their fourth birthday. Therefore, if a parent wants a full-time place for their child from September (at the school at which a place has been offered) then they are entitled to that full-time place.
