Action plan 3 INTRODUCTION PARISH PLANS Parish plans are part of the “Vital Villages” initiative of the Countryside Agency, run locally through the Rural Community Council (Leicestershire & Rutland). A Parish Plan should provide a picture of a village, identifying through consultation the concerns and needs of its residents. From the plan villages should identify actions to improve the village and the life of the community. The resulting Village Action Plan is then used to inform the County Council, through the Parish Council. Parish Plans have a statutory place in local government. GREAT CASTERTON PARISH PLAN Great Casterton’s Parish Plan started with a meeting of villagers in June 2002. There was particular interest because of a contentious planning decision imposed by the County Council on the village. The Community Development Officer for Rutland, Adele Stainsby, explained the purpose of the plan and the benefits for the village. A committee was formed, and a constitution drawn up. The Parish Council promised a small initial grant while an application for Countryside Agency funding was prepared. The money granted was to be balanced by the voluntary work of villagers.

  • Ketton Conservation Area
    Ketton Conservation Area Ketton Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan Draft for consultation August 2019 1 1.0 Background Ketton conservation area was designated in 1972, tightly drawn around the historic core of Church Road, Chapel Lane, Redmiles Lane, Aldgate and Station Road and extended in 1975 to its current size. 2.0 Location and Setting Ketton is a large village located 4 miles south west of Stamford on the Stamford Road (A6121). It has been identified within the Rutland Landscape Character Assessment (2003) as being within the ‘Middle Valley East’ of the ‘Welland Valley’ character area which is ‘a relatively busy, agricultural, modern landscape with many settlements and distinctive valley profiles.’ The river Chater is an important natural feature of the village and within the valley are a number of meadow areas between Aldgate and Bull Lane that contribute towards the rural character of the conservation area. The south western part of the conservation area is particularly attractive with a number of tree groups at Ketton Park, the private grounds of the Priory and The Cottage making a positive contribution. The attractive butter coloured stone typical of Ketton is an important feature of the village. The stone quarry and cement works which opened in 1928 is located to the north. A number of famous buildings have been built out of Ketton Stone, such as Burghley House and many of the Cambridge University Colleges. Although the Parish Church is of Barnack stone. The historic core is nestled in the valley bottom on the north side of the River Chater and extends in a linear form along the High Street, continuing onto Stamford Road (A6121).

  • Rutland County Council Electoral Review Submission on Warding Patterns
    Rutland County Council Electoral Review Submission on Warding Patterns INTRODUCTION 1. The Council presented a Submission on Council Size to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) on 11 July 2017 following approval at Full Council. On 25 July the LGBCE wrote to the Council advising that it was minded to recommend that 26 County Councillors should be elected to Rutland County Council in future in accordance with the Council’s submission. 2. The second stage of the review concerns warding arrangements. The Council size will be used to determine the average (optimum) number of Electors per councillor to be achieved across all wards of the authority. This number is reached by dividing the electorate by the number of Councillors on the authority. The LGBCE initial consultation on Warding Patterns takes place between 25 July 2017 and 2 October 2017. 3. The Constitution Review Working Group is Cross Party member group. The terms of reference for the Constitution Review Working Group (CRWG) (Agreed at Annual Council 8 May 2017) provide that the working group will review arrangements, reports and recommendations arising from Boundary and Community Governance reviews. Therefore, the CRWG undertook to develop a proposal on warding patterns which would then be presented to Full Council on 11 September 2017 for approval before submission to the LGBCE. BACKGROUND 4. The Local Government Boundary Commission for England technical guidance states that an electoral review will be required when there is a notable variance in representation across the authority. A review will be initiated when: • more than 30% of a council’s wards/divisions having an electoral imbalance of more than 10% from the average ratio for that authority; and/or • one or more wards/divisions with an electoral imbalance of more than 30%; and • the imbalance is unlikely to be corrected by foreseeable changes to the electorate within a reasonable period.

It is bounded ou the north-west aud south-west by Leicestershire; on the south and south -eaRt by Nurthamptonshire, trom which it is separated by the I'ive:r WeJland; and the county of Lincoln is the boundary on ils east and north· eastern sidell.-This districc, at the time of the Roman invasion, formed a part of the territory of the Coritani: under the Romans it was included in the divhion called Flavia ClBsariensis: at Great Casterton was a Roman station, but antiquaries disagree concerning its llame. By the Saxons the district was comprised in the kingdom of Mercia. In Domesday­ book Roteltlnd is mtnlioned as being composed of the t\o\'O wapentakes of Alstoe and Martiosley; and the res~ of the county, lit Ihat periml, was included in Northamplonshi,'e. Rut18nd is first described as a dis­ tinct county ill the fifth year of King John, at Ihr coronation of whose queen, Isabel, it was, amongst other lands, assigned in parliament tor her dower. But few important historical events are connected with this county. In 1470, on the 27th of April, an army uf Lancaslt'I'ians was defeated by Edward IV, M Horn, witb a loss of thirteen thousand men, wht'n Sir Thomas Wells and Sir Thomas de Launde were taken pl'isoners, and shortly afterwards beheaded: this engagement has been jocularly styled' the Baule of Lose-coat Field,' (mm the disper-ed fugitives having ca,t off their coats in order to be le~ encumbered.
