  • Stroud District Local Plan: Policies Consultation
    The Painswick Beacon Sine praeiudicio Volume 36 Number 1 April 2013 Painswick Post Office The Beacon has been informed by the Parish Council that the Council has been notified by Post Office Ltd that, as a result of the premises at Westhaven House in New Street being no longer available for Post Office use, following the resignation of the postmistress, the branch closed on 23rd March. Post Office Ltd, in its letter dated 25th March, has apologised for the late notification. Mr Neil Jenkins, Post Office Ltd’s Field Change Advisor, has written to the Parish Council with an assurance that Post Office Ltd is currently investigating the options available which will enable the reinstatement of a Post Office service to the local community. Mr Jenkins goes on to say that “In exploring this, it is important that any future service is sustainable for the person operating the service and for Post Office Ltd. Future provision will reflect customer numbers and usage and we may take the opportunity to establish an alternative type of service. This may be a new style branch known as a Post Office local. Post Office locals run alongside an established shop and create a more modern and convenient retail experience for customers in newly refurbished premises”. The Beacon understands that the creation of the new Post Office could not be effected in less than four to six months. Mr Jenkins writes that he wishes to apologise for the inconvenience the temporary closure may cause. He hopes that Post Office Ltd’s customers will continue to use the Post Office services in the area and that he will write again to the Parish Council once he has any news about Post Office Ltd’s plans for future service provision.

    EASTINGTON Community News June / July 2012 NO. 133 Welcome to our Summer edition and as can be seen from Mark Campbell’s weather records inside, we have at last reached good summer temperatures after the long cold wet time in April and much of May. Top topic this time has to be Eastington Primary School’s remarkable achievement in winning a place (against national competition,) to cook for the Queen! Their imaginative and creative menus are an indication of the immensely high standard to which they have risen. They are a bright inspiration to our whole community - Well done. Following the highly successful new additions to activities in our Village, (Allotments & Community Orchard Group are most recent,) NOW is a great opportunity to create an engaging, enjoyable and versatile environment for the current and future generations of kids and teenagers of this Village. For the success of Eastington Youth Group (EYG,) and to attract funding and become registered, it is essential to have a physical home. Land has been identified and a provisional building plan is proposed. The EYG committee need the assistance of skilled individuals in pushing a build project forward and five donated Pod’s are currently waiting to be permanently sited. I am amazed by how many creative and talented people live and work in this Parish, and who contribute to Eastington’s vitality. If you are an Architect or Design & Construction Engineer or Project Manager and Fund Raiser, then NOW is the time to help start an exciting and truly valued project. Please contact an EYG member today: Tina Smith (0789 1579754); Sue Whaites; Kevin Dalby (827401) email: mailto:[email protected]).

  • Cotswold Way Sg Walk
    ENGLAND – THE COTSWOLD WAY 13-days / 12-nights SELF-GUIDED inn-to-inn walking holiday The lush green Cotswolds rise from the upper Thames valley to an escarpment or ‘edge’ above the Severn valley, with the highest point, Cleeve Hill, just over 300 metres above sea level. It is a quintessentially English landscape – rolling, verdant hills dotted with picturesque villages, medieval churches, stately country homes and ancient ruins. The Cotswold Way National Trail, 102 miles (164km) long, follows the escarpment through the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty from the beautiful market town of Chipping Campden to the World Heritage-listed city of Bath. The walking is delightful, on well-maintained and waymarked footpaths, bridleways and quiet country lanes. The cottages, farmhouses, villages, and small towns of the Cotswolds are particularly attractive as they are mostly built from weathered honey-coloured limestone. You stay in carefully selected guesthouses and B&Bs in unspoilt, quiet hamlets and larger market towns with restaurants, cafés and traditional English pubs. The route takes you past many historic places, including the Tudor-era Sudeley Castle, Neolithic burial chambers and Iron Age hill forts and civil war battle sites. Nearly every village has a medieval church worth visiting. Book early, especially if travelling in the popular months of June and July, to avoid disappointment. Bank holidays and the Badminton horse trials (early May) can affect accommodation availability. Departs: Daily departures year-round – April to October recommended Starts: Chipping Campden Ends: Bath Cost from: $2050 per person twin share Single room supplement from $1100 Supplement for Friday/Saturday night stay in Bath – ask for details Includes: 12 nights’ twin-share ensuite accommodation in carefully selected guesthouses or B&Bs; breakfast daily; inn-to-inn luggage transfers (1 bag per person, maximum weight 20kg); detailed route notes, maps and information pack; emergency assistance.

  • Chair's Annual Report 2019/2020
    CHAIR’S ANNUAL REPORT 2019/2020 In normal times, I would have made this report at the Parish Meeting on 11th May, but we are publishing it earlier than usual as the Parish Meeting has had to be cancelled, and we may find some difficulty in running a public engagement meeting remotely. We will try to find a way of doing so but at this point, it looks difficult. When I started drafting this report some weeks ago, I had been planning to say “Good evening and welcome to the 2020 Parish Meeting and Community Open Meeting. I am Rob Williams, and this is my second Annual Report as Chair of Charlton Kings Parish Council” Instead, because of the unparalleled changes to our national life brought about by the Coronavirus, this will be a report without a visible audience but, nevertheless, an important statement of how your Parish Council has performed over the last 12 months. The national Coronavirus emergency The meeting of Full Council on 24th February was the last face to face meeting we have been able to hold this year, and for the foreseeable future. From the week of 16th March, all staff and councillors ceased face to face meetings. This coincided with the busiest time of year, with staff appraisals, end of year financial reporting, allotment invoicing and completion of a few of this year’s projects all having to be cancelled, postponed or delivered by other means. As the crisis deepened, by 21st, we had trialled Skype as a way of holding remote meetings but by the start of the next week we had settled on Webex as our secure, remote meetings platform.

  • The Painswick Beacon
    The Painswick Beacon Sine praeiudicio Volume 35 Number 5 August 2012 Art Couture captivates - Writing about the Art Couture Festival (see letters page), Paul Moir says: "To see the streets full of people enjoying themselves makes me realise why I love Painswick so much". This is what the Festival achieved during the weekend of 14th/15th of July. The organisers, the Art Couture Committee led this year by Judie Hill, Libby Graesser, Frances Day, Debra Drew and Chris Mercer, are to be congratulated on what must have been a major exercise involving many hours in producing such a big event, giving so much pleasure to so many people. They can also be congratulated choosing a mainly fine weekend at the end of the Painswick monsoon season! For a further report of the event see page 10, along with colour photos on the following pages, and also an article by Judie Hill in which she conveys the organisers' thanks to the many volunteers, supporters, sponsors and particularly Painswickians, who have given up so much of their time and energy, donated and assisted in so many ways, to make the Art Couture Painswick Festival happen. The opening event, an evening concert in St Mary's churchyard, was a very joyous occasion. It was introduced by a peal of bells by St Mary's bell ringers. There followed Year 6 of the Croft School giving musical numbers from their recent production of "Rocky Monster Show". It was not even spoilt by a sharp shower which the audience quite ignored. Other local singers, bands and dancers kept the appreciative audience well entertained.
