2020 Dacorum Footpath Secretary's Report REPORT OF THE Dacorum Borough footpath secretary 2020 A complicated series of orders were completed in Tring Rural Parish involving the diversion of several footpaths numbers 14, 15 and 16 and also the extinguishment of two footpaths which did not really lead anywhere and the creation of two replacement footpaths which usefully linked with the existing rights of way. The whole details can be viewed on the Ramblers Assemble system, provided you have access. I had several notifications about a development at Woodfield School, but I could not see any effect on the rights of way, so did not comment. Tring town footpath 48 was diverted round a new housing development. This path runs from the Icknield Way to Okeley Lane. The route seems slightly longer, but is otherwise reasonable. An order was made after an appeal for a new footpath, number 61, at Berkhamsted. It runs from Ashlyns Road to Chesham Road across the Berkhamsted school playing fields. This path was turned down once, but reinstated after appeal. I expect there will an objection and a public enquiry, but I have not heard whether this will happen yet. I appealed against the proposed closure of the four footpaths crossing the A41 bypass at Northchurch. I supported the local Councillors in their request for a bridge for footpaths 21 and 22, but Hertfordshire CC has rejected this. When the bypass was built the Inspector turned down our request for a bridge as the expected traffic flow was too small to justify a bridge. Now although the traffic flow has increased by a multiple of 4 or 5 times, a bridge is still not possible because of the cost. This seems a dishonest way of getting away with not building a bridge. The County are also proposing to cut the road verges less often over the coming years to improve the conditions for nature. This seems a very good idea, provided any verges used by walkers to get from one footpath to another along the road are still cut, so walkers are not forced on the carriageway. The Northern Chiltern Path Maintenance volunteers have restarted work after a shutdown for Covid lockdown. They are clearing paths in Dacorum and South Bedfordshire. In Dacorum they have cleared paths along the side of the A41 bypass and on Berkhamsted common. If you come across any problems in Dacorum do let me or Clayton Rae know. Also if you know of any stiles in Dacorum I would be interested to hear about them. Email me on [email protected] John Rowe .

Archaeological Zone 1 (AZ1) covered the western side of the development area within Bedfordshire. Two pylon footings (PBA14 and PBA15) along with an access road and a cable trench were excavated in this zone. No archaeological features were identified within this area. However, modern root disturbance, associated with the present hedgeline, was identified adjacent to Newlands Road. Archaeological Zone 2 (AZ2) covered the eastern side of the development area within Bedfordshire. Two pylons (PBA12A and PBA13) were erected in this zone and a cable trench was excavated. Three ditches [3707], [4002] and [4302] that were likely to be part of a field system were identified. Archaeological Zone 3 (AZ3) covered the southern part of the development area and was split into two areas: the northern area (AZ3N) covering the land within Bedfordshire and the southern area (AZ3S) covering the land within Hertfordshire. In AZ3N, footings for three pylons (PBB93, PBB94 and PBB95) an access road and a cable trench were excavated. The only archaeological feature to be identified was a ditch [4502] that may have been the continuation of one of the ditches located in AZ2.

  • The Impact of Agricultural Depression and Land
    THE IMPACT OF AGRICULTURAL DEPRESSION AND LAND OWNERSHIP CHANGE ON THE COUNTY OF HERTFORDSHIRE, c.1870-1914 Julie Patricia Moore Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD September 2010 2 ABSTRACT The focus of this research has been on how the county of Hertfordshire negotiated the economic, social and political changes of the late nineteenth century. A rural county sitting within just twenty miles of the nation’s capital, Hertfordshire experienced agricultural depression and a falling rural population, whilst at the same time seeing the arrival of growing numbers of wealthy, professional people whose economic focus was on London but who sought their own little patch of the rural experience. The question of just what constituted that rural experience was played out in the local newspapers and these give a valuable insight into how the farmers of the county sought to establish their own claim to be at the heart of the rural, in the face of an alternative interpretation which was grounded in urban assumptions of the social value of the countryside as the stable heart of the nation. The widening of the franchise, increased levels of food imports and fears over the depopulation of the villages reduced the influence of farmers in directing the debate over the future of the countryside. This study is unusual in that it builds a comprehensive picture of how agricultural depression was experienced in one farming community, before considering how farmers’ attempts to claim ownership of the ‘special’ place of the rural were unsuccessful economically, socially and politically.
