  • Corsham Community Policing Report Area Board – 14Th November 2018
    Corsham Community Policing Report Area Board – 14th November 2018 Hello and welcome to this Community Policing Team report. As part of Op Sceptre - the national knife crime prevention initiative was launched, bringing together police forces co-ordinating ways to tackle knife crime, appealing for people to hand in unwanted or illegal knives and bladed weapons during the period of the amnesty: Monday 17 - Sunday 30 September. Our two week campaign featured case studies from people whose lives have been affected by knife crime - from the victim of knife crime to the police officer who had to deal with a serious stabbing. Knives are used as an everyday tool in the home and in industry, but when placed in the wrong hands or adapted for the wrong purpose can have devastating consequences. A fine example of this was on Wednesday 3rd October 2018 at approximately 14:00 hours a report was received from a member of public regarding a possible drink driver on Easton Lane. Police were on scene in minutes following a short pursuit and the male ran from his vehicle, the suspect was detained and arrested. On searching his vehicle a sword was found. The 29 year old male from Thingley has been charged with fail to stop, dangerous driving, drink driving and possession bladed article. Sgt Mark SIMPSON wanted to thank the member of public who called this in. Thank you Special amnesty bins were available at six locations across the county: Swindon's Gablecross Police Station, Marlborough Police Station, Melksham Police Station, Chippenham's Monkton Park, Trowbridge Police Station and the Temporary Police Station at the rear of Five Rivers Leisure Centre in Salisbury.

  • Maternal Mortality, Sixteenth to Eighteenth Centuries
    Medical History, 1982, 26: 79-90. AN ATTEMPT TO ESTIMATE THE TRUE RATE OF MATERNAL MORTALITY, SIXTEENTH TO EIGHTEENTH CENTURIES by B. M. WILLMOTT DOBBIE* AN ENQUIRY into family structure in previous centuries reveals evidence of the high price in women's lives of replenishment of the population. It could not be otherwise, for when Nature failed in her task, or was thwarted by such adversities as pelvic deformity or malpresentation, attempts to help were mostly fumbling in the dark, literally and metaphorically, and well-meant interference was almost certain to introduce infection, so often fatal. The study that follows is based upon parish registers, and it must be prefaced with a reminder that exact truth is unattainable; most of the data are flawed, some seriously. Nothing better than an informed estimate can be hazarded, using such solid facts as can be gathered, and not scorning crumbs of evidence. This paper draws attention to some sources of error. The subject of childbirth deaths in past centuries has not received much attention; in fact, little is known in any quantitative sense, and the difficulties of collecting and interpreting evidence are daunting. DEFINITION OF MATERNAL MORTALITY The question must be considered: for how long after childbirth may death of the mother be the consequence? The International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics includes deaths up to forty-two days after delivery or termination, though accepting that later fatality is possible. The triennial reports into maternal deaths in England and Wales' include deaths up to a year, but usually have the advantage of an autopsy, and reject deaths obviously unconnected.

  • THE GREAT BATH ROAD, 1700-1830 Brendaj.Buchanan
    THE GREAT BATH ROAD, 1700-1830 BrendaJ.Buchanan The great turnpike highway from London to the spa city of Bath is surrounded by legend and romance, 1 which have come to obscure the fact that at no time in the period studied was there any one single Bath Road. Instead, from the beginning of the eighteenth century there were created over the years and in a patchy, disorganized sequence, some fifteen turnpike trusts which with varying degrees of efficiency undertook the improvement of the roads under their legislative care. Not until the mid-eighteenth century was it possible to travel the whole distance between capital and provincial city on improved roads, and even then the route was not fixed. Small changes were frequently made as roads were straightened and corners removed, the crowns of hills lowered and valley bottoms raised. On a larger scale, new low-level sections were built to replace older upland routes, and most significant of all, some whole roads went out of use as traffic switched to routes which were better planned and engineered by later trusts. And at the time when the turnpike roads were about to face their greatest challenge from the encroaching railways in the 1830s, there were at the western end of the road to Bath not one but two equally important routes into the city, via Devizes and Melksham, or through Calne and Chippenham along the line known to-day as the A4. This is now thought of as the traditional Bath Road, but it can be demonstrated that it is only one of several lines which in the past could lay claim to that title.

  • English Heritage Battlefield Report: Lansdown 1643
    English Heritage Battlefield Report: Lansdown 1643 Lansdown Hill (5 July 1643) Parish: Cold Ashton, Doynton, Bitton, Charlcombe, North Stoke Districts: Bath and North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire County: Bath and North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire Grid Ref:ST 723712 Historical Context In the early summer of 1643 the Royalist position in England gave rise to a certain optimism. Parliamentarian morale had been dented by a series of Royalist successes which included Adwalton Moor, Hopton Heath, Ripple Field, Stratton and Chalgrove. Moreover, Oxford was still reasonably secure. In the West, however, Parliamentarian garrisons continued to hold out in Devon, while Gloucester, Bristol and Bath were firmly controlled by Parliament. Sir William Waller, as Major General of the Western Association Forces, commanded Parliament's not inconsiderable military resources in Shropshire, Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Somerset. If there was to be a chance of Sir Ralph Hopton's Royalist army marching east to join the King's Oxford army in a combined advance on London, Parliament's position in the West must first be destroyed. Hopton's victory at Stratton in May 1643 and his subsequent progress through Devon encouraged the King to send him additional troops under Prince Maurice and the Marquis of Hertford. At Chard on 4 June Hopton's reinforced army totalled some 4,000 foot, 2,000 horse and 300 dragoons, together with 16 pieces of artillery. An ingenious command system was now evolved to encompass the dignity, rank and military skills of Maurice, Hertford and Hopton. While Hertford commanded in name, Hopton commanded in the field and Maurice devoted his attention to the Horse.

The sides' of these cuttings are &equently supported by retaining walls constructed using_in situ techniques such as diaphragm walling. In the permanent condition the retaining walls may be supported at formation level by’ concrete props. The design of retaining walls supported at g formation level is largely govemed by the stability and serviceability requirements during construction, before the permanent props. are installed. 'In appropriate situations the use of berms in conjunction with careful monitoring can be an economical and effective means of construction. The magnitude of movements can be limited by construction control. Results from monitoring 'show that berms are effective in supporting retaining walls during temporary construction stages. 1. INTRODUCTION In order to minimise the land take and keep the environmental impact of the bypass to a minimum, an In 1982 the Department of Transport commissioned 800m length of cutting is supported by diaphragm Sir Alexander Gibb & Partners Limited to design the walling with retained.
