Published by St. Michael's Mansel Lacy Community Association With Issue No. 75 Summer 2010 For the residents of Mansel Lacy, Brinsop, Moorhampton, Upperton, Wormsley, Yarsop & Yazor. Published by St. Michael’s Mansel Lacy Community Association With financial support from a Foxley Group Parish Council grant. Printed by Express Printing, Wellingborough Foxley News 2 Editorial At the Annual General Meeting of the ‘Foxley Group Parish Council’ held on the 5th May. David Davenport was elected Chairman with Cal Edwards as Vice Chairman. The Chairman read out a letter of resignation from Tom Bailey from the Brinsop ward. The vacancy needs to be filled and applications are invited from anyone who lives within 3 miles of the Group Parish. Forms are available from the Parish Clerk, Mr Brian Barrett of the Old School, Mansel Lacy. Tel 01432 590706. In the event that only one person steps forward then that person will be co-opted onto the council. In the event that there are no applications then the Council will attempt to co-opt a member, without an election. At the recent General Election it was encouraging that the turn out at Mansel Lacy Polling station which covered 7 Parishes amounted to 71.6%.The winner was Bill Wiggin Jim Fairhurst wishes to thank all those friends who have sent him their get well cards and good wishes during his recent illness Bernard Gay 1921 - 2010 The Garden is in mourning. The rain sinks coolly on the flowers. Summertime shudders quietly to a close. Leaf upon golden leaf is dropping down from the tall Acacia tree. Summer smiles amazed and exhausted on the dying dream that was this garden. Long by the roses it tarries, yearns for rest, and slowly closes its weary eyes.

The Presiding Officer Annie Lilwall said that there had been a steady stream throughout the day. It was nice to see David Eckley walking from round the corner to place his vote.. The voters came from 7 parishes and included the Byford group. Incidentally the Herefordshire Council Electoral Office have booked the Hall for Thursday 5th May 2011. This is for the County Council Elections and the Parish Council elections. The General Knowledge and Music Quiz on Saturday 13 March went well with the usual crowd in. Thanks to Elaine for the music. The Duck Race is reported on the last page but retains it’s popularity with adults as well as the children. I have been trying to get some more of the whistling lollipops we had on the first duck race but have been unable to find any. Any body know where they are.? The Soap Box Derby is getting very close now and there is still lots to do. We have a fantastic team of volunteers but can do with more. Ring 590625 please. It is nice to have 2 teams from Mansel Lacy, the Jones from Parsonage Farm and the Grices from the Old Smithy competing this should add interest. We are also hoping that the team buying Ian Astley’s championship Soap Box will be entering. We are of course hoping for a nice sunny day, which we are due. As editor I have to absolve myself from the article at the top of page 9 and also from the drinking tale on page14. Anything else you can blame me if you like. The Community Hall/church sewage system is now behaving itself, thanks to nobody putting hand towels in the pan, which had caused the original blockage. This edition of the Foxley News is the 75th and as I’m the same age I wondered whether it should be celebrated a little. I’ll have another glass of something and thank my lucky stars. I’m not giving up the editors job just yet but would be happy to train another deputy editor in the use of the desk top publishing software that we use. The Soap Box Derby Committee will be looking for a new Chairman in the Autumn because I intend to withdraw from a very pleasurable job, but which is designed for someone slightly younger. I will be on hand to help as much as I can. The Community Access Point has ceased its operation after 4 years, during which a number of people were introduced to the complexities of computing and it’s various software wrinkles. The CAP is considered to have served its purpose. The equipment will not be sold and remains the property of the Community as a whole. The Community Association has taken over the safekeeping on all the equipment, which is available for hire to the CA members and other members of the community. Having featured Cis and her plaster in the last edition I’m pleased to say that she is now walking without a stick and almost without a limp. I’d like to send my good wishes to all those people who have recently had limb operations. Get well soon! Cal “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For while knowledge defines all we currently know and understand, imagination points to all we might yet discover and create” Election of Member of Parliament The Acting returning officer has advised that the number of votes cast for each candi- date was as follows: Hurds Lucy Ann - Lib Dem 14,744 Oakton Jonathon Paul - UKIP 2701 King Edward John - Ind 586 Sabharal Neil - Labour 3373 Norman Felicity Mary - Green 1533 Wiggin Bill - Conservative 24,631 Total spoilt votes 69 Bill Wiggin was therefore duly elected Foxley News 4 A man and his dog were walking along a road. The man was enjoying the scenery, when it suddenly occurred to him that he was dead. He remembered dying, and that the dog walking beside him had been dead for years. He wondered where the road was leading them. After a while, they came to a high, white stone wall along one side of the road. It looked like fine marble... At the top of a long hill, it was broken by a tall arch that glowed in the sunlight. When he was standing before it he saw a magnificent gate in the arch that looked like mother-of-pearl, and the street that led to the gate looked like pure gold. He and the dog walked toward the gate, and as he got closer, he saw a man at a desk to one side. When he was close enough, he called out, 'Excuse me, where are we?' 'This is Heaven, sir,' the man answered.. 'Wow! Would you happen to have some water?' the man asked. Of course, sir. Come right in, and I'll have some ice water brought right up. 'The man gestured, and the gate began to open. 'Can my friend,' gesturing toward his dog, 'come in, too?' the traveller asked ‘I'm sorry, sir, but we don't accept pets.’ The man thought a moment and then turned back toward the road and continued the way he had been going with his dog. After another long walk, and at the top of another long hill, he came to a dirt road leading through a farm gate that looked as if it had never been closed. There was no fence As he approached the gate, he saw a man inside, leaning against a tree and reading a book. 'Excuse me!' he called to the man. 'Do you have any water?' 'Yeah, sure, there's a pump over there, come on in.' 'How about my friend here?' the traveller gestured to the dog. 'There should be a bowl by the pump.' They went through the gate, and sure enough, there was an old-fashioned hand pump with a bowl beside it. The traveller filled the water bowl and took a long drink himself, then he gave some to the dog. When they were full, he and the dog walked back toward the man who was standing by the tree. 'What do you call this place?' the traveller asked. 'This is Heaven,' he answered. 'Well, that's confusing,' the traveller said. 'The man down the road said that was Heaven, too.' 'Oh, you mean the place with the gold street and pearly gates? Nope. That's Hell.' 'Doesn't it make you mad for them to use your name like that?' 'No, we're just happy that they screen out the folks who would leave their best friends behind.' Irish police are being handicapped in a search for a stolen van, because they cannot issue a description. It's a Special Branch vehicle and they don't want the public to know what it looks like. Commenting on a complaint from a Mr. Arthur Purdey about a large gas bill, a spokes- man for North West Gas said, 'We agree it was rather high for the time of year. It's possible Mr. Purdey has been charged for the gas used up during the explosion that destroyed his house.' When my husband and I arrived at Our Local Ford dealer to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it.

According to a narrative concerning the early years of Holy Trinity priory in Aldgate, London, known only from fifteenth-century manuscripts, Bernard prior of Dunstaple, John prior of Launde (Landa), Geoffrey de Clinton, the (king’s) chamberlain (Gaufridus camerarius de Clinton), and others named, witnessed the gift of the Cnihtengild in London to Holy Trinity in that year. It is unsurprising that the priors of two recently founded Augustinian houses should witness a gift to Holy Trinity, thought to be the first Augustinian house in England. Their names were presumably taken from a contemporary deed or other record which has not been preserved (Hodgett, Cartulary of Holy Trinity, 168, no. 871; R. R. Sharpe, Calendar of Letter Books, C, 220). The king’s confirmation of the gift, 000, Regesta 1467, also witnessed by Geoffrey de Clinton, is apparently authentic and datable 1123 × 1127, so the narrative’s date of 1125 may well be accurate. Launde priory was founded at Loddington, ‘in cuius territorio abbatia fundata est’, according to Henry II’s general confirmation of 1155 × 1158 (H2/1456).

  • Place Shaping
    4.0 Place Shaping Introduction 4.1 This section sets out proposals for: . Hereford . Bromyard . Kington . Ledbury . Leominster . Ross-on-Wye . Rural Areas 4.1.1 For each area policies and proposals are set out, including a range of broad locations where larger scale or strategic development is proposed. The Core Strategy does not identify specific development sites. For the purpose of the Core Strategy, a strategic location is generally defined as around 500 or above homes for Hereford, around 100 or above homes within the market towns or around 5 hectares or above for employment land. 4.2 Hereford The vision for Hereford 4.2.1 By 2031, Hereford will consist of healthy, safe, secure, low crime and sustainable communities with a wide range of homes and employment opportunities for all, which are well serviced by a range of community facilities, green infrastructure and public transport. The imbalance of housing types and income levels across Hereford, particularly within South Hereford, where there is a high concentration of affordable housing and income deprivation, will be addressed by providing a greater balance and mix of properties and employment opportunities across the city and at the urban extensions. 4.2.2 New communities and neighbourhoods will be successfully integrated with existing communities and the surrounding countryside. Residents will have greener environments and energy efficient homes which contribute to reducing the county’s carbon footprint. Education and community facilities will be provided within walking distance of residential areas. Developers will be encouraged to have early engagement and consultation with the community including the city/town/parish council.

EDITOR'S PREFACE. Owing to various circumstances the issue of the present Volume of Transactions has been unavoidably delayed, much to the regret of the Editorial Committee. The death of the late accomplished Editor, Dr. Cecil Moore, deprived the Club of the services of one whose long experience and extensive acquaintance with the subjects which engage the interests of its members made him a difficult man to follow, and some time elapsed before arrangements could be made to take up his work. A great quantity of matter, manuscript and printed, had accumulated in Dr. Moore's hands, and at his death was deposited in the Woolhope Library. To sift and prepare for the press what Dr. Moore had intended for publication has been necessarily a work of time, but it is hoped that the Volume now in the hands of members will justify the delay in publication, and prove not altogether unworthy of its predecessors. Owing to the size of the present Volume several interesting papers are held over to the next Volume. For the carefully prepared Index to the Volume the Club is indebted to Mr. Sledmere. V.
