The two most important local councils in Berkshire at the time were Berkshire County Council and Reading Corporation, which were responsible for effecting emergency orders. These principal councils either carried out the orders themselves or delegated them to the other borough or district councils.

  • Local Government Restructuring and Oxfordshire’ - Briefing Paper for Need Not Greed Oxfordshire
    ‘Local Government Restructuring and Oxfordshire’ - Briefing paper for Need not Greed Oxfordshire By David Illingworth November 2016 Introduction 1. This briefing note will: Present a lightning tour of what local authorities do and their funding, as background; Consider the history and recent events around local government restructuring in Oxfordshire; Consider the difficult questions raised by restructuring; then Set out some Conclusions. Six supporting Annexes set out more details about: i) The 1974 reorganisation that set up the existing County and District structure; ii) The major review of this structure in the 1990s and subsequently; iii) A short summary of the recent PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC) report on this issue, commissioned by the Districts; iv) A short summary of the recent Grant Thornton (GT) report commissioned by the County; v) The options for change considered by PWC and GT; and vi) The Costs and Benefits of the various options. This note focuses on the local government structures in shire areas, notably Oxfordshire. Annexes 3 to 6 summarise the reports by PWC and GT. These are 119 pages and 78 pages long respectively, so inevitably much is summarised or completely omitted. 1. What do local authorities do and who pays for it? 2. Local authorities provide services for local people. They have extensive legal powers to provide services and intervene where necessary. They are directed by locally elected councillors though they need professional advice from managers. Most authorities have a small leading group of councillors who make day to day and key decisions – this is generally known as the ‘Cabinet’. The Cabinet has responsibility for some strategic decisions, for example it recommends a budget for the full Council to consider.

  • Solent Thames Berkshire Mesolithic Draft
    Thames and Solent Research Framework The Upper Palaeolithic and Mesolithic of Berkshire Dr Catherine Chisham, Wessex Archaeology July 2006 1. Chronology Berkshire, and in particular the middle Kennet Valley, is known for its high concentration of Upper Palaeolithic to Early Mesolithic remains. The Final Upper Palaeolithic is strongly represented, with sites typified by assemblages with large backed blades, some showing heavy edge-damage or “bruising”, known as long blades or bruised blades (Barton 1986, 1989, 1991). Long blade sites include Avington VI (Froom 1970, 2005; Barton and Froom 1986; Barton 1989; Barton et al. 1998), Wawcott XII (Froom 1970, 2005) and Crown Acres (Campbell 1977; Barton 1986; Froom 2005). Mesolithic material has been found in the vicinity of all three, but was stratified only at Avington, where a Late Mesolithic horizon was found above the Palaeolithic. There is no known site in the Kennet Valley with a stratified sequence of Upper Palaeolithic to Early Mesolithic material nor transitional material specifically identified. However, there is some slight evidence for a stratigraphic and chronological split at Crown Acres, on the basis of past descriptions and the patination of liths characteristic of both periods, Barton (1986, p84) suggested that while both assemblages underlay the peat, the earlier material came from sandy marl, which at Thatcham, stratigraphically underlies the Mesolithic levels. The only absolute date for Upper Palaeolithic activity in Berkshire is for Avington VI, with an optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) date for the occupation horizon of 10,250±1,100 (Ox-1523b) (Barton et al. 1998). Dating of the Mesolithic of Berkshire has been focussed on a few large sites, and is summarised in [Table #1] , with a range from 10,365±170 BP (10,900-9,700 cal BC, Q-659, Wymer 1962) at Thatcham III to 5260±130 BP (4360-3780 cal BC, BM-449, Froom 1972) at Wawcott (Lobb and Rose 1996).

  • Mayors of Newbury Text © Anthony C. Pick Photographs © Newbury Town
    Mayors of Newbury Mayors of Newbury “She looked with great admiration at every neat house, and at all the chandler’s shops which they passed.” Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey (1818), Ch. 26 (edited). “The government of towns corporate was altogether in the hands of traders and artificers.” Adam Smith, quoted in K.B. Smellie, A History of Local Government (1963), p.17. This biographical survey of the Mayors of Newbury was prepared with the kind help of many people, including the descendants of former Mayors and the Friends of Newtown Road Cemetery. Assistance from Jane Burrell, David Peacock, Sue Ellis, Brian Sylvester, Judith Thomas, and Phil Wood is gratefully acknowledged. The value of the many reports from the Newbury Weekly News will be evident. Notes by Roy Tubb in his publications have been helpful. The survey reflects the development of English local government and changes in the role of the Mayor in that. The constant factors have been that the Mayor is chief citizen of Newbury, is elected for one year by his/her fellow Councillors, and chairs the Full Council. Initially, the Mayor was Chief Magistrate. The introduction of elections to boroughs in 1835 resulted in the borough being concerned mainly with the improvement and betterment of Newbury, so that each Mayor concerned himself with one or other betterment project. In the 20th century, the magistrate function became the responsibility of statutory magistrates. From 1974, the Mayor became limited to his/her present ceremonial and honorific function. With the establishment of Newbury Town Council in 1997, the functions of the Mayor before 1974 became divided between the elected Mayor, the elected Leader of the Council, and the senior officer with the title Chief Executive Officer.

Heritage in Bracknell Town Key Objective 1A To sustain the significance of Listed Buildings and other Heritage assets and their settings. Foreword : Parks : a view… Are parks important civic spaces ? Definitely. Do parks help people stay fit and healthy ? Yes. What is publicly accessible land (especially as designed into the layout of Bracknell New Town) worth to its residents ? It’s priceless What precisely is it that makes an area of greenery in a town a proper park, as opposed to a garden or a collection of playing fields or a square or a common ? Here is a recent definition according to a review by William Boyd of “A Walk in the Park: The Life and Times of a People’s Institution” by Travis Elborough, The Guardian, 18 June 2016, p8. He then goes on to say : “First the trees must be mature, second, they must be randomly planted, third there must be undulations in the ground, fourth is the question of scale, the park must be large enough so you cannot see all of it at once and not every boundary must be visible from one point, fifth, there must be a gate, or gates. Wall and/or railings are even better- the boundary is defined. There must be must be one or several portals.” “(The) book’s structure is roughly chronological, looking at how kings and noblemen fenced off and sequestered areas of land for their hunting pleasure.
