    Part I Item No: 11 Main author: Bryce Tudball Executive Member: Cllr Mandy Perkins All Wards WELWYN HATFIELD BOROUGH COUNCIL CABINET PLANNING AND PARKING PANEL – 12 APRIL 2018 REPORT OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR (PUBLIC PROTECTION, PLANNING AND GOVERNANCE) DRAFT COLE GREEN WAY GREENSPACE ACTION PLAN 2018-2023 CONSULTATION 1 Executive Summary 1.1 A draft Greenspace Action Plan (GAP) has been prepared for Cole Green Way by the Countryside Management Service (CMS) on behalf of Hertfordshire County Council (HCC). 1.2 Cole Green Way is a 6.2km non-motorised transport route following the former Hertford to Welwyn Garden City branch line. It provides a traffic-free connection between Hertford and Welwyn Garden City connecting at both ends to links to the respective town centres and forms part of the Sustrans National Cycle Network Route 61. 1.3 The draft GAP focuses on the section of Cole Green Way between Hertford and the A414 which is owned by HCC and will make recommendations for the management of the remainder of the route. 1.4 A briefing document was produced by CMS in August 2017 as a first stage of engagement on the GAP. The Council’s proposed consultation response was reported to this Panel on 5 October 2017 and following agreement of the Panel was submitted to the CMS on 12 October 2017. 1.5 The CMS has considered the feedback from the consultation on the briefing document and has subsequently prepared a draft Cole Green Way Greenspace Action Plan 2018-2023. This report summarises the draft GAP and sets out the Council’s response to the consultation which was agreed with the Executive Member for Planning, Housing and Community and submitted to HCC by email on Friday 16 March.

  • Working Children of St Michael's, St Albans, 1851
    WORKING CHILDREN OF ST MICHAEL’S, ST ALBANS, 1851 Introduction Peter Kirby, in his book ‘Child Labour in Britain,’ states that “very few children below 10 were ever engaged in productive labour”, and he therefore focuses his book on 10-14 year olds. 1 Unfortunately, nineteenth century summary census data is only provided in 5 year age bands. Thus it is able to show that nearly 30% of 10-14 year olds and 2% of 5-9 year olds in England and Wales were recorded as employed in 1851,2 but does not indicate the proportion for individual year groups. A casual glance at the 1851 census returns for St Michael’s shows that there were many children under the age of 10 who were working, some as young as 7, and that by age 12, the majority were working. This paper therefore focuses on 7-12 year olds, to determine the proportion of each year group who were working and the nature of their occupation. It is based on the census returns for St Michael’s urban enumeration district, which includes all the houses in the Parish and Borough, including part of Fishpool Street, St Michael’s and Pound Field. In 1851 there were 224 households and 1091 residents. Numbers of Working Children in St Michael’s urban 1851 Table 1 shows the numbers and percentages of working children in St Michael’s by year group. It can be seen that some boys and girls were at work by the age of 7, but that this was a minority.

The proposals constitute inappropriate development within the Metropolitan Green Belt and are therefore, by definition, harmful to it. Other harm would also result from a loss of openness to the surrounding area; an adverse impact on the character and appearance of the area; the isolated and unsustainable location of the site and the adverse impact upon protected trees.
