INTRODUCTION This is the first report to be produced by an Editorial Board. The Board was set up after Andrew Self stepped down from his role as Editor. Andrew was Editor from 1998 to 2010, and I would like to thank him for all the work he did for us. This is also the first report for many years for which we have not had Steve Spooner as Database Manager. Steve carried out this role from 2002 to 2010 (including LBR 2006) and formatted the 2007 London database. I would like to thank him too for all his work for us. The Editorial Board has plans to catch up with the backlog of reports: we are working at present on the 2008 and 2009 reports, which we are hoping to publish this year. For the moment this is our main focus, so this report follows the same lines as earlier reports. We hope in the near future to focus more attention on ways of improving the reports. We would therefore welcome comments on this report, both positive and negative. We would also like details of any mistakes you find in the report. Please send comments or corrections to me; my contact details are below. This report now has a page, listing records that we have heard about but have not received any descriptions for. Please let us have details if you saw any of these birds, even if you were not the person who found them. We also include on that page, records we have received that have not been accepted. We now have a new Surrey Recorder, Nick Tanner, whose contact details are given later. 6 LONDON BIRD REPORT NO. 72 FOR 2007 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS On behalf of the London Natural History Society, I would like to thank the hundreds of individuals and organisations who have contributed records to this report. I would also like to thank all those who helped with the production of the report: the 21 authors of the Systematic List (listed above); Martin Grounds for help with data input; Anna Marett (AM), Jan Wilczur (JPPW) and Roy Woodward (RKW) for their illustrations; all the photographers who kindly donated their photos; Steve Spooner who prepared the 2007 Surrey records; Andrew Verrall who proof-read the Systematic List section; and GiGL (Greenspace Information for Greater London), the open space and biodiversity records centre, which processed the data for us. Thanks also to all the members of the Editorial Board. I am particularly grateful to all the Recorders, who, in addition to the time-consuming tasks of inputting all the data for their area, checked the species accounts in the Systematic List and provided comments and corrections. Thanks also to Thames Water for the many courtesies extended to our members, and to the following organisations for their generous help in the exchange of records: BirdGuides British Birds Rarities Committee British Trust for Ornithology Buckinghamshire Bird Club East London Birders Forum Hertfordshire Natural History Society Kent Ornithological Society Londonbirders Yahoo group Surrey Bird Club The LNHS would like to thank the BTO and their contributors for data in the Grey Heron records on page 58.

The Area covers the whole of Greater London and parts of Hertfordshire, Essex, Kent, Surrey, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire. However, for continuity of recording, Watsonian vice-counties are used in this Report instead of the present administrative areas (but note that vice-counties 18 and 19, South and North Essex, are lumped together as Essex). The vice-county boundaries are shown on the map of the Area which follows. There is also a special recording zone for Inner London. This is a rectangular area, five miles north to south, eight miles east to west, centred on the site of the old Charing Cross on the south side of Trafalgar Square, which covers parts of Middlesex, Surrey and, just, Kent. A detailed Map of the Area together with a Gazetteer of Sites appears on pages 9 to 15. The names used in this Report for certain sites are not shown on, or differ from those on, Ordnance Survey maps. Please consult the Gazetteer of Sites if in any doubt. It would be helpful if these names could be used by observers when submitting records. A National Ordnance Survey Grid Reference should be given in any difficult or doubtful case. All records of interest are welcome, from LNHS members and non-members alike. These include information on the local status of common species, breeding records, notes on migration (including first and last dates and main movements), regular counts of wintering populations and notes on behaviour and on the occurrence of unusual birds.

  • Walks Programme: July to September 2021
    LONDON STROLLERS WALKS PROGRAMME: JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2021 NOTES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING COVID-19: Following discussions with Ramblers’ Central Office, it has been confirmed that as organized ‘outdoor physical activity events’, Ramblers’ group walks are exempt from other restrictions on social gatherings. This means that group walks in London can continue to go ahead. Each walk is required to meet certain requirements, including maintenance of a register for Test and Trace purposes, and completion of risk assessments. There is no longer a formal upper limit on numbers for walks; however, since Walk Leaders are still expected to enforce social distancing, and given the difficulties of doing this with large numbers, we are continuing to use a compulsory booking system to limit numbers for the time being. Ramblers’ Central Office has published guidance for those wishing to join group walks. Please be sure to read this carefully before going on a walk. It is available on the main Ramblers’ website at www.ramblers.org.uk. The advice may be summarised as: - face masks must be carried and used, for travel to and from a walk on public transport, and in case of an unexpected incident; - appropriate social distancing must be maintained at all times, especially at stiles or gates; - you should consider bringing your own supply of hand sanitiser, and - don’t share food, drink or equipment with others. Some other important points are as follows: 1. BOOKING YOUR PLACE ON A WALK If you would like to join one of the walks listed below, please book a place by following the instructions given below.

  • 1 Conservation Casework Log Notes March 2018
    CONSERVATION CASEWORK LOG NOTES MARCH 2018 The GT conservation team received 136 new cases in England and TWO cases in Wales during February, in addition to ongoing work on previously logged cases. Written responses were submitted by the GT and/or CGTs for the following cases. In addition to the responses below, 47 ‘No Comment’ responses were lodged by the GT and 5 by CGTs in response to planning applications included in the weekly lists. Site County GT Ref Reg Proposal Written Response Grade ENGLAND Bristol Local Plan Avon E17/1570 n/a LOCAL PLAN Bristol Local Plan CGT WRITTEN RESPONSE 31.03.2018 Review We are grateful for the opportunity to comment on this Local Plan Review. As previously notified to you, The Gardens Trust, which is the statutory consultee on matters concerning registered parks and gardens, is now working closely with County Gardens Trusts, and the responsibility for commenting on Local Plan Reviews in this context has now passed to Avon Gardens Trust. The Trust notes that Policy BCS22 Conservation and the historic environment in the Core Strategy of June 2011, and Policy DM31 of the Site Allocations and Development Management Policies of July 2014 are proposed to be retained. The Local Plan Review consultation document makes a number of strategic proposals, for example to meet housing need, to provide new transport infrastructure, and in respect of employment, land. Such proposals may, depending on location, detailed siting and design, have an impact on registered and unregistered historic parks and gardens. 1 The Trust does not seek to comment on such proposals at the present time, but would expect to be engaged in its role as statutory consultee as and when the details of such proposals are known.

  • Ocpssummer2012 2
    Old Chiswick Protection Society Summer 2012 Newsletter Chairman's message It has been a very busy period for the OCPS. Highlights include persuading stakeholders that the historic pollarding of the Eyot ought to continue. Our next aim is to extend the boundaries of the Conservation Area to include the Eyot, which was inexplicably excluded on first designation. The improvement in the physical condition of the York stone pavements is pleasing, as well as the sensitive replacement of lamps in the Conservation Area. The underpasses are also looking better and are set to improve. The committee is rightfully proud of its living oral history project, which seeks to ensure the memories and voices of the area do not slip from memory. Because of our disappointment at the result of Chiswick Lodge, we need to be at the heart of creating a Neighbourhood Plan for the area to ensure that future developments are properly scrutinised at all levels to harmonise with the character and appearance of the area. In the past OCPS has been able to punch well above its weight, but we need to increase our membership so that we are a stronger and more representative organisation. Remember we seek to protect the whole of the Conservation Area, which runs from British Passage in the east to St Mary’s Convent in the west, from the river in the south, to the A4 in the north. Proper representation from all parts of the area is essential. To this end, if you are not yet a member, please join and have your say on what shapes one of the UK’s oldest Conservation Areas.

  • Old Chiswick Protection Society
    Old Chiswick Protection Society Autumn 2020 Newsletter Old Chiswick Protection Society exists to preserve and enhance the amenities of this riverside conservation area. Even the geese are social distancing! [Photograph: David Humphreys] Chairman’s Message As we look back at the last months, the Old Chiswick Conservation Area has become even more precious to many of us who live here, work here or visit. We have seen and spoken with visitors, previously unfamiliar with our environment and its atmosphere and history, who are enjoying it for the first time. Nature carries on here regardless, and our history continues to be relevant and vital to our future. We can't take anything for granted though. It is only with the support of our members' subscriptions and diligent work that we are here today and can be so proud of what has been achieved by the charity over the last 60 years. Old Chiswick could so easily have looked and felt very different: no Chiswick Eyot, with its unique withy beds and nature reserve; houses where Homefields Recreation Ground South is; an entirely different main road into and out of London, sacrificing more historical buildings; post-war housing instead of Georgian houses along Chiswick Mall. Our community has done much to help others this year, and we continue to build relationships with those like Asahi who are new to the area since taking over Fuller’s Brewery, and who have expressed a wish to become part of the community. We look forward to inviting you to join our AGM this year, which will of course be conducted on line, with the very latest advice on meetings.

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions.
