  • Crida Wind Proposal: the Facts
    Crida Wind Proposal: The Facts A wind farm called Crida (no such place exists) has been put forward in a proposal to Shropshire Council by developers - Sharenergy in Ludlow, Sustainable Bridgnorth and backed by Natural Power in Wales - to put up two towering industrial wind turbines at Meadowley on the historic Jack Mytton Way. According to the Sunday Times, local property prices will be affected by 40% when an unspoilt area such as around Bridgnorth is turned by developers into a 'wind turbine landscape'. Each will be one and a half times the height of Nelson’s column and will completely dominate the ancient natural landscape around the west of Bridgnorth – the gateway to Shropshire. The Jack Mytton Way will become despoiled and potentially dangerous for inexperienced riders as horses may be startled by the sudden starting of Golaith rotor blades and the noise of the wind turbines. The countryside will be degraded, with the west Bridgnorth Hills becoming a target for land-grabbing developers as Bridgnorth becomes a potential wind turbine landscape and a ‘hot--spot’ for developers. Equestrian tourism in the area will be badly harmed with Triffid-like industrial turbines blighting Shropshire's 'flagship' tourist trail for thousands of riders, walkers and cyclists. Shropshire Council describes the trail as giving visitors and locals the chance to discover the 'secret treasures' of the county's 'unspoilt countryside'. The turbines will desecrate the local historic countryside in the west Bridgnorth Hills, with views, noise, and potential health problems seriously affecting the villages of Morville, Chetton, Underton, Meadowley, Upton Cressett, Morville Heath, Tasley, The Lye, Aston Eyre.

  • Rural Settlement List 2014
    National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

  • Preferred Options Consultation Final Draft
    Shropshire Local Plan Review: Consultation on Preferred Sites November 2018 6. Bridgnorth Place Plan Area 6.1. The Bridgnorth Place Plan Area is located in east Shropshire. The Place Plan area contains the Principal Centre of Bridgnorth; the proposed Community Hubs of Alveley and Ditton Priors; and numerous other small villages and hamlets. Settlement Type Settlement Name Principal Centre: Bridgnorth • Alveley Community Hubs: • Ditton Priors Community • Acton Round, Aston Eyre, Monkhopton and Upton Cressett Clusters: • Neenton 6.2. If your village is not included in the list of Community Hubs or Community Clusters above, then this means that it will be ‘countryside’ for planning policy purposes, where new development is strictly controlled in accordance with national and local planning policies. 46 Shropshire Local Plan Review: Consultation on Preferred Sites November 2018 Principal Centre: Bridgnorth 6.3. Bridgnorth (2016 population 12,260) is the third largest town in Shropshire and acts as a principal service centre not just for the town, but for a sizeable area of eastern Shropshire. Located at the junction of the A458 and the A442, it is within relatively easy commuting distance of Telford, Shrewsbury, Kidderminster, Wolverhampton and the Black Country. 6.4. The town straddles the River Severn, and comprises a Low Town and a High Town perched on cliffs 100ft above. The combination of medieval street pattern and many fine old buildings has created a unique town of considerable charm which, together with its steam railway, helps to support a thriving tourist economy. 6.5. There are strong environmental constraints in Bridgnorth, mainly due to the river and its floodplain, natural topography and areas of high landscape value to the south and north of the town.

  • MORETON CORBET Written Primarily by Barbara Coulton 1989
    MORETON CORBET Written primarily by Barbara Coulton 1989 EARLY HISTORY There has been a settlement at Moreton at least since Saxon, even Roman times and it lies on the Roman road from Chester to Wroxeter. The Domesday Book (1086) records that Moreton was held by Thorold, from whom it was held by Hunning and his brother since before 1066. Another Saxon family, that of Thoret, came to have Moreton, under Robert fitz Turold. In the time of his descendant, Peter fitz Toret, the chapel at Moreton - a subsidiary of the church of St Mary at Shawbury (a Saxon foundation) - was granted, with St Mary's and its other chapels, to Haughmond Abbey, c. 1150. The north and south walls of the present church may date back to this time. Charters of Haughmond were attested by Peter fitz Toret and his sons, the second of whom, Bartholomew, inherited Moreton Toret, as it was then known. Witnesses to a charter of 1196 include Bartholomew de Morton and Richard Corbet of Wattlesborough, a small fortress in the chain guarding the frontier with Wales. He was a kinsman of the Corbets of Caus Castle, barons there from soon after the Norman conquest; Richard Corbet held Wattlesborough from his kinsman, owing him knight service each year, or when a campaign made it necessary. Richard Corbet married Bartholomew's daughter Joanna, heiress of Moreton, and their son, another RICHARD CORBET, inherited both Wattlesborough and Moreton. He married Petronilla, Lady of Booley and Edgbolton; their son ROBERT CORBET was of full age and in possession of his estates by 1255.

The county was contested during the First Civil War of 1642-6 and also saw armed conflict on a smaller scale during the Second Civil War of 1648. This detailed study provides a comprehensive bipartisan analysis of military endeavour, in terms of organisation and of the engagements fought. Drawing on numerous primary sources, it explores: leadership and administration; recruitment and the armed forces; military finance; supply and logistics; and the nature and conduct of the fighting.

Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.
