Issues of continuity and gradual evolution of practices as opposed to rupture and sudden replacement form a major theme of funerary archaeological research as well as the broader socio-political context of the 4th to 7th centuries CE in England (e.g. Oosthuizen 2019). For this reason it is worth going the extra mile when interrogating and contextualising the relevant evidence in order to reach conclusions based upon as complete a picture as possible. The main focus of the following paragraphs is the interpretation of some of the items found in Guildown grave 78 put forward by Bird (and others before him) and how, in his words, these ‘must raise speculation about some form of continuity from late Roman arrange- ments in this general area’ (Bird 2018, 6-7).

  • Written Evidence from Surrey County Council (EDE 15)
    Written evidence from Surrey County Council (EDE 15) Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee The Evolution of Devolution: English Devolution 1. Surrey County Council (SCC) welcomes the opportunity to submit evidence for this inquiry on the evolution of English devolution. We are encouraged that the Government recognises the importance of devolution for strengthening local economies and facilitating a better quality of life for residents. We see this as an opportunity to inform debate ahead of the Government’s publication of the Devolution and Recovery White Paper. We would also be willing to provide oral evidence to the Committee. Key messages 2. Surrey has a huge amount of potential and can play a leading role in the economic recovery from Covid-19. To do this, English local government needs strengthening with more certainty around the freedoms, flexibilities and funding that can be used to implement the right policies for local circumstances. This would increase the chances of a stronger and sustained economic recovery, safeguarding services for local residents and successfully levelling up the country. 3. Local authorities provide crucial local leadership to address the challenges and opportunities they face, so they can improve the lives of residents and the places they live in. They have the depth of insight into and experience of their places and communities. This is crucial as we continue to respond to the pandemic with our partners, and residents have depended on our services to support them through the Covid-19 crisis. 4. Devolution also has the potential to rejuvenate local democracy in England. Disillusionment with the democratic system is translating into poor turnout at local elections.

As Archlvlst-ln-Charge she presided over Guildford Muniment Room from January 1971 (when Dr Enid Dance retired) until her own retirement In 1982. The greater part of her working life was passed In Guildford, where her first job as an archivist had brought her to work (for six months that became three years, 1950-1953) in the Muniment Room, cataloguing the Loseley MSS on behalf of the Historical Manuscripts Commission. After eight years organising the archives at Petworth House she then returned to Guildford as assistant archivist in 1961. Jill was modest about her own achievements and would lay claim only to having a good memory. She brought to her archival tasks many other advantages: a well organised mind, the highest standards of scholarship and a natural grace of style. All those who used the Muniment Room during the twenty five years that she worked there will testify to her apparently almost infinite patience and helpfulness, and all present and future historians of Surrey are indebted to her for the excellence of the lists and indexes she produced.

BOAs are those areas where targeted maintenance, restoration and creation of Natural Environment & Rural Communities (NERC) Act ‘Habitats of Principal Importance’, ie. Priority habitats will have the greatest benefit towards achieving this aim. Recognition of BOAs directly meets National Planning Policy Framework policy for the planning system to contribute to international commitments for halting the overall decline in biodiversity, by establishing coherent ecological networks that are more resilient to current and future pressures (para. 109). Designation of BOAs in local plans will also fulfil NPPF requirements to plan for biodiversity at a landscape-scale across local authority boundaries; and identify & map components of the local ecological networks (para. 117). Explanatory BOAs identify the most important areas for wildlife conservation remaining in Surrey and each include a variety of habitats, providing for an ‘ecosystem approach’ to nature conservation across and beyond the county.

  • Overview of SWT Plans to Deal with Ash
    West Surrey Badger Group, Surrey Dormouse Group and Surrey Bat Group views on the Surrey Wildlife Trust’s plan for Ash Dieback on their countryside estate. Context Ash Dieback (ADB) is a disease of ash trees caused by the fungus Hymenoscyphus fraxineus originating in Asia. It appeared first in Eastern Europe in about 1992 and has since moved westward, reaching the UK in 2012. It is now found across the entire UK, including Surrey, where most ash trees are believed to be infected. Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) is the third most common tree in England, and is found on most Surrey sites. ADB causes defoliation, crown dieback, and in many cases, leads to the death of the tree. The questions this raises are • Will all ash trees become infected? This seems very likely – most are probably already infected. • Will all ash trees show symptoms? Many will, although not necessarily all, and the severity will vary. Established, mature trees in mixed woodland seem least affected. • Will all ash trees die? This is uncertain. Across Europe, based on studies over the past 20 years, maximum mortality figures so far for natural woodland (as against plantations) seem to be around 70% (Ref 1). • How quickly will this happen? Again this is uncertain. It varies according to local conditions, the state and make-up of the woodland and the weather. Given around 30% of trees are still alive after up to 20 years, it won’t happen all at once, but trees are already showing symptoms in Surrey. A study in France & Belgium showed that for trees >25cm, annual mortality reached 3.2% after 8-9 years of pathogen presence, while for trees >5cm but<25cm it was ~10%.

  • Local Services Parish Letter—November 2016 RECTOR’S LETTER “I Waited for You to Turn to Me” November Is the Month of Remembrance
    Local Services Parish Letter—November 2016 RECTOR’S LETTER “I waited for you to turn to me” November is the month of Remembrance. We start with All the Saints on the 1st November, All Souls on the 2nd, Guy Fawkes on the 5th and then we remember our soldiers on the War Memorials on 11th November with Remembrance Sunday on 13th November. Towards the end of the month in the church calendar we celebrate ‘Christ the King’, when we are reminded that Jesus came into this world as God’s Son and was anointed and crowned with thorns to offer his life as a sacrifice for us on the cross, so that a kingdom could be born of Truth, Life, Justice, Love and Peace. Our world today so desperately needs a kingdom, where our world leaders talk truth, and where people of all faith and cultures can live in peace. What would be our part in all this I wonder? As Christians it is through our prayers, and our living relationship with God that we can make the difference. How we live our lives: giving time to God and showing love for our neighbour. We will also be remembering at the end of the month the first anniversary of the death of Revd Pattie Vigers who gave selflessly to these communities and her life to God. She is now at rest in that heavenly kingdom of Christ the king, where truth, justice and love abounds. For those of us still living our lives and remembering in the earthly kingdom our comfort is in allowing God to surround us with love and open our hearts to receive love in our lives.
