Today, the parish covers a large area, one of the biggest in the Hundred Parishes, incorporating the villages of Standon and Puckeridge and also the hamlets of Barwick, Colliers End, Latchford and Wellpond Green. Standon, Latchford and Barwick grew up beside the River Rib, which meanders from north to south through the middle of the parish. Puckeridge and Colliers End developed alongside Ermine Street, the old Roman road from London to Lincoln and York that later became a busy coaching route, especially serving London and Cambridge. A second Roman highway, Stane Street, ran between Colchester and St Albans, crossing Ermine Street at a Roman town whose location was close to the present northern parish boundary with Braughing, a boundary that is today largely defined by the old route of Stane Street. Wellpond Green is a relatively new residential hamlet. Much of Stane Street has become today’s A120, with a diversion that now runs to the south of Puckeridge.

  • Sawbridgeworth and Spellbrook Annual Town Meeting
    Sawbridgeworth and Spellbrook Annual Town Meeting MINUTES of the Annual Town Meeting of Sawbridgeworth and Spellbrook held at The Memorial Hall, The Forebury, Sawbridgeworth, Herts at 7.30 p.m. on Monday 11 April 2011. Present: Cllr Eric Buckmaster (Town Mayor) Chairman; 24 Local Government Electors for the ward of Sawbridgeworth and Spellbrook, (including 5 Town Councillors). PS David Cooke, PC Tina Mustoe, Eleanor Patmore H&E Observer, Town Clerk Richard Bowran, Admin Officers Sue Adams and Laura Shepherd. The Chairman welcomed those present to the Sawbridgeworth Annual Town meeting and explained that this was not a meeting of the Town Council but of the people of Sawbridgeworth and Spellbrook. 11/01 Minutes of the Annual Town Meeting Resolved – that the Minutes of the Annual Town Meeting held on 12 April 2010 be confirmed as a correct record. 11/02 Matters Arising There were no matters arising from those minutes 11/03 Report by the Town Mayor The Town Mayor, Cllr Eric Buckmaster, reported on the Activities of the Council in 2010/11 At this time we are not only approaching the end of the civic year but also the end of our four year term. In 2007 the council started with just six councillors, needing to co-opt a further six and with a Town Clerk new to Sawbridgeworth. I believe that this combination of experience and enthusiasm actually energized the Council to the extent that I feel that we are now possibly a little more connected with the community we serve. We have also learned that by looking at things from another perspective we can sometimes provide a service, or fulfill a duty, that others bodies have been unable to make viable.

  • East Herts District Plan
    East Herts District Plan Strategic March 2017 Land Availability Assessment 1.0 Introduction 1.1 National planning policy requires all Local Planning Authorities to produce a technical study known as the Strategic Land Availability Assessment (SLAA) in order to identify sites with potential for future development. The SLAA has informed work on the District Plan and Neighbourhood Planning. It has also assisted with the identification of future land supply. 1.2 The SLAA is a ‘live’ document in that it should be updated on a regular basis in order to reflect changing circumstances. Therefore, this version of the SLAA presents the most up to date position as at March 2017. 2.0 Methodology 2.1 Paragraphs 019 to 021 of the PPG identify that, when undertaking a SLAA, sites should be considered against three criteria, namely; suitability, availability and achievability. These terms are explained below. Suitability The assessment of suitability takes into account a range of policy constraints. These include environmental and heritage designations, impact on landscape and character, flooding and Green Belt / Rural Area Beyond the Green Belt. Availability A site is considered to be available if there are no legal or ownership issues which would prevent the site coming forward for development. Achievability Achievability is effectively a judgement about the economic viability of a site, and the capacity of the developer to complete the development over a certain period of time. 2.2 Having assessed each site against the three criteria, a conclusion can be reached. If a site is considered to be suitable, available and achievable, then it is regarded as being ‘deliverable’.

  • Admission Rules for Community and Voluntary-Controlled Co-Educational
    The Highfield School Admission arrangements for 2020/21 The school will have a published admission number of 180 Section 324 of the Education Act 1996 requires the governing bodies of all maintained schools to admit a child with a statement of special educational needs that names their school. All schools must also admit children with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) that names the school. Rule 1 Children looked after and children who were previously looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted (or became subject to a child arrangement order or a special guardianship order). Rule 2 Medical or Social: Children for whom it can be demonstrated that they have a particular medical or social need to go to the school. A panel of HCC officers will determine whether the evidence provided is sufficiently compelling to meet the requirements for this rule. The evidence must relate specifically to the school applied for under Rule 2 and must clearly demonstrate why it is the only school that can meet the child’s needs. Rule 3 Sibling: Children who have a sibling at the school at the time of application, unless the sibling is in the last year of the normal age-range of the school. Note: the ‘normal age range’ is the designated range for which the school provides, for example Years 7 to 11 in a 11-16 secondary school, Years 7 to 13 in a 11-18 school. Rule 4 Children for whom The Highfield School is their nearest school. Rule 5 Children who live in the priority area for whom it is their nearest Hertfordshire maintained school or academy that is non-faith, co-educational and non-partially selective.
