  • Swindon & District Directory Extract 1928 Purton
    Swindon & District Directory Extract 1928 Purton PURTON is a large village, with a station on the Gloucester branch of the G.W.R., is 4 miles from Cricklade, 4 from Wootton Bassett, and 6 from Swindon, and is in the Chippenham Division of Wilts, Union and Petty Sessional Division of Cricklade and Wootton Bassett, County Court District of Swindon, and Diocese of Bristol. The Church dedicated to St. Mary, is an ancient structure with modern additions, and was once a chantry to Malmesbury Abbey. Its register dates from 1558. One notable feature in the building is the existence of a tower at the west end, and a lofty spire rising from the intersection of the nave and chancel. Only two other churches of this kind exist in the country – at Wanborough, Wilts, and Ormskirk, Lancashire. The living is a vicarage of the annual value of £455, in the gift of the Earl of Shaftesbury. The excellent Parochial Schools are a standing memorial of the zeal and interest shown by the late Rev. D. O. Coates, to whose energy their success is largely due. In the central part of the village stands a handsome building erected by Mr. and Mrs. James Sadler, of Lydiard House, as a memorial to the deceased sister of Mrs. Sadler, for the purpose of a coffee tavern and reading room. Mr. Sadler has presented the institution to the parishioners, the trustees being the Parish Council. Mr. Sadler, who is the President of the Purton Cricket Club, generously purchased the Cricket Field from Miss Russell in 1911, and presented it to the parish.

    Purton Neighbourhood Plan 2017 - 2026 Made November 2018 Purton Neighbourhood Plan Dec2017 v8 FORWARD The Localism Act gives local communities the opportunity to develop a shared vision for their Neighbourhood Area and to shape the development and growth of their local area. In 2013, Purton Parish together with six other parishes in the Royal Wootton Bassett and Cricklade Community Area came together under the Government’s “Front Runner” scheme to develop a joint Neighbourhood Plan. At the beginning of this year, Purton Parish Council decided that, for the benefit of the people of Purton Parish, it was necessary to make faster progress and sought Area Designation for the Parish with an aim to complete a Neighbourhood Plan by the end of 2017. In February 2013 we consulted with local residents on what they thought was important to their local community and how they want to see the parish of Purton develop. This consultation together with the feedback from Purton’s Parish Plan in 2014, the Purton Housing Needs Survey undertaken by Wiltshire Council and the Parish Council in 2012 together with P and Qs’ vision of Transforming Purton in 2012 was used to develop the draft neighbourhood plan. In October 2016 the draft Neighbourhood Plan was published for comment but further consultation was held until the designation of the Purton Neighbourhood Plan was approved in December 2016. An informal consultation was carried out in 2017 which was followed by the Regulation 14 Pre-consultation carried out in accordance with the statutory requirements of Regulation 14 of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012.
