A Brief History of Waltham Cross
History of Waltham Cross Eleanor Monument The resting place of Queen Eleanor during her funeral procession was known as Waltham and the location was already known to Edward l as he, like former kings, hunted in Waltham Forest. The abbey was built 350 years earlier, during the reign of King Harold. When Edward died at Burgh on The Sands in Cumbria his body was kept at the Abbey for five weeks before its interment at Westminster Abbey in London. It is believed that the location chosen for the monument was a hamlet a mile away from Waltham. It was a main road at a crossroad point where travellers would be able to view it from several directions. In 1720, Stamford Vicar William Stukeley, made a drawing of the monument at Waltham Cross and presented it to the newly founded Society of Antiquaries. They undertook works to protect it from the increasing traffic. In 1795, Sir George Prescott tried to have it moved to Theobalds Park, but failed after official intervention. The first major restoration took place in 1833 by WB Clark, but these improvements lasted just 50 years and further work was required in the 1880s. Eleanor Cross Road was bombed during World War Two, and although the monument didn’t suffer a direct hit it was damaged by the resulting tremors. Following the war, in 1950 a major restoration took place. The statutes were relocated briefly to Cheshunt library and for a time they were stored in Cedars Park conservatory before being loaned long term to the Victoria and Albert Museum for safe keeping. -

Royal Connections to Dunstable
Royal DUNSTABLE Connections One of twelve resting places for Queen Eleanor's funeral procession in 1290. Henry I established a town around the crossroads in Dunstable around 1109 and by 1123 had built a royal residence, to take advantage of the hunting grounds. The site is now occupied by the Old Palace Lodge Hotel, Kingsbury Court and the Norman King pub (which was sadly burned down in August 2011). On the wall outside the Norman King was the following inscription: "On the site of this inn and the adjoining ground, Henry I had a palace built where he regularly stayed from 1109, and which was known as Kingsbury." Henry founded a priory (a small monastery) in Dunstable in 1131. He granted the prior control of Dunstable Priory - founded 1131 : Chris Smith the town. However he had already promised the townspeople the same freedoms as the citizens of In 1291 the King ordered crosses to be erected to mark the London.

160314 08A Future Direction of the Residual Waste Treatment
Appendices Appendix 1 – Key Planning considerations The Site The Site covers an area of around 5.6 hectares, is currently owned by Tarmac (previously Lafarge Aggregates Ltd) and is an existing industrial site with planning permission to operate an asphalt coating plant, an aggregates railhead and a ready- mixed concrete plant. Aggregates are primarily brought into the Site via the rail siding which forms part of the Site. Road access to the Site is via Ratty’s Lane. Ratty’s Lane leads to the A10 Dinant Link Road via Essex Road. The Site is bordered to the south by Rye House Power Station. The River Lee borders the site to the east and north. A railway line (which serves the rail siding within the site) borders the western site boundary and runs north east to south west. The Site is situated in the eastern part of a heavily industrialised area to the east of the town of Hoddesdon. There is parkland to the east of the Site, with agricultural land beyond this. Parkland and some light industrial premises are located to the north of the Site beyond the River Lee, with light industry to the west and residential properties beyond this. Parkland, light industry, the River Lee and residential properties are situated to the south of the Site. Approximately 100m to the north of the boundary of the Site, beyond the railway line and across the River Lee, is Rye House Kart Club track. Rye House Speedway Stadium lies further to the north, approximately 300m from the boundary of the Site. -
