Stroud Labour Party
Gloucestershire County Council single member ward review Response from Stroud Constituency Labour Party Introduction On 30 November the Local Government Boundary Commission started its second period of consultation for a pattern of divisions for Gloucestershire. Between 30 November and 21 February the Commission is inviting comments on the division boundaries for GCC. Following the completion of its initial consultation, the Commission has proposed that the number of county councillors should be reduced from 63 to 53. The districts have provided the estimated numbers for the electorate in their areas in 2016; the total number for the county is 490,674 so that the average electorate per councillor would be 9258 (cf. 7431 in 2010). The main purpose of this note is to draw attention to the constraints imposed on proposals for a new pattern of divisions in Stroud district, which could lead to anomalies, particularly in ‘bolting together’ dissimilar district wards and parishes in order to meet purely numerical constraints. In it own words ‘the Commission aims to recommend a pattern of divisions that achieves good electoral equality, reflects community identities and interests and provides for effective and convenient local government. It will also seek to use strong, easily-identifiable boundaries. ‘Proposals should demonstrate how any pattern of divisions aids the provision of effective and convenient local government and why any deterioration in equality of representation or community identity should be accepted. Representations that are supported by evidence and argument will carry more weight with the Commission than those which merely assert a point of view.’ While a new pattern of ten county council divisions is suggested in this note, it is not regarded as definitive but does contain ways of avoiding some possible major anomalies. -

Hamfallow Parish Council
DRAFT CONSULTATION RESPONSE TO STROUD DISTRICT COUNCIL’S DRAFT LOCAL PLAN CONSULTATION, NOVEMBER 2019, FROM HAMFALLOW PARISH COUNCIL 1. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on your latest version of the Stroud District Draft Local Plan. Hamfallow Councillors have attended the exhibitions and discussions that have been arranged by yourselves and by Ridge, the developer of the proposals for new housing in our area. We have also attended meetings of the local action group, BASRAG, to gauge public opinion on your Plan. 2. In this regard, we would also point out that in our last joint Hamfallow/Hinton Parish Plan, on which we consulted parishioners, less than 2% of respondents favoured clusters of over 100 houses in their parish. As a result, our parishes committed in that Plan to fight large scale developments and to push for sizeable starter/affordable home components in any developments that do take place. 3. Please note that we also commented on the earlier “Emerging Strategy” a year ago and we are very disappointed not to have received any response to the detailed comments we made (attached for ease of reference). None of the concerns we expressed have been addressed in the current draft Plan and so all our earlier comments still apply as comments on the current draft plan. We would like to have proper responses to the issues raised below, and those in our previous response, within 28 days of the close of this consultation. 4. We are very disappointed that the essentials of the new Plan seem almost the same as the previous version we criticised, as in point 3 above. -

The Establishment of the Head Port of Gloucester, 1565-1584 (Mphil
The Establishment of the Head Port of Gloucester, 1565-1584 Alexander Higgins A thesis submitted to the University of Bristol in accordance with the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts, Department of Historical Studies, November 2012. 24,884 words. Abstract After a fifteen-year campaign, Gloucester became an independent head port in 1580. This effectively ended Bristol’s long-standing jurisdiction over the Gloucestershire reaches of the River Severn and resulted in the loss of the greater part of Bristol’s historic port. This dissertation explores Bristol’s objections to this change and examines the prosecution of their complaints through the equity side of the Exchequer court. Primarily, this study focuses upon two commissions created by the Crown to review the case. The interrogatories and depositions produced by these commissions are used to explore the nature of this dispute, the motivation behind Bristol’s objections and why Gloucester ultimately retained its head port status. The first chapter focuses upon the practical implementation of the commissions. Rather than relying upon the legal records alone, this study uses letters, accounts and reports produced by the two parties to explore the workings of a commission. This approach reveals the extent of Bristol and Gloucester’s attempts to manipulate proceedings to their own advantage. These findings have significant implications on the impartiality of Tudor legal process and the reliability of the Exchequer records. The second chapter examines the findings of the two commissions to assess the nature and strength of Bristol’s arguments. It is shown that many of these arguments were unsubstantiated. -

This document may be reproduced with prior permission of the Environment Agency. December 2009 Introduction I am pleased to introduce our summary of the Severn Tidal Tributaries Catchment Flood Management Plan (CFMP). This CFMP gives an overview of the flood risk in the Severn Tidal Tributaries catchment and sets out our preferred plan for sustainable flood risk management over the next 50 to 100 years. The Severn Tidal Tributaries CFMP is one of 77 CFMP’s 2,562 properties and 6,000 people at risk in the for England and Wales. Through the CFMP’s, we have catchment in a 1% flood event. However, it is expected assessed inland flood risk across all of England and that both of these figures could rise quite significantly Wales for the first time. The CFMP considers all types within the next 100 years by which point some 3,720 of inland flooding, from rivers, ground water, surface properties and 7,000 people could be affected by water and tidal flooding, but not flooding directly flooding in a 1% event. -
The Introduction of the Tin-Plate Industry to the Lower Wye Valley and the Newerne Valley of the Forest of Dean
Reprinted from: Gloucestershire Society for Industrial Archaeology Journal for 2003 pages 3-9 THE INTRODUCTION OF THE TIN-PLATE INDUSTRY TO THE LOWER WYE VALLEY AND THE NEWERNE VALLEY OF THE FOREST OF DEAN. Pat Morris Even a fairly cursory examination of the details given in the censuses of 1841 and 1851 for Lydney shows that there were very many incomers among the Lydney residents. The biggest group of incomers were those working at the iron and tin plate works in 1851. The population of Lydney, and particularly the number of employees of the tin plate works, increased appreciably between 1841 and 1851. The significance of these works for the growth of Lydney between those dates was evident. Relatively little published material about the early period of that industry’s growth could be found. Much more of what is available relates to the late 19th century Richard Thomas ownership. This study originated in an attempt to find more about the growth of the Lydney tin works in the early period, the origins of its employees, their skills and the dynamics of their settlement in and impact on Lydney. The Development of Tin Works in the Forest of Dean Lydney’s iron industry was long established and particularly significant in the 17th century, but Lydney was not one of the early sites of the tin plate industry. A very interesting sequence of the spread of tin plating around the lower Severn becomes apparent. In South Wales tin plate making was established in Pontypool and Kidwelly in the early 18th century.(1) Rowland Pytt, in 1731 described as of Lydney, ironmaster, took the lease of Ynys- y-gerwn tin works near Aberdulais, Glam.
