SOUTHERN AREA PLANNING SUB-COMMITTEE 10TH OCTOBER, 2007 9 DCSW2007/2455/F - CONVERSION OF ATTIC TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL RESIDENTIAL SPACE (2 BEDROOMS AND 1 BATHROOM), NO. 4 DOYRE HOUSE, PONTRILAS, HEREFORDSHIRE, HR2 0EH For: Trustees Kentchurch Children's Trust per Berringtons, The Estate Office, The Vallets, Wormbridge, Hereford, HR2 9BA Date Received: 3rd August 2007 Ward: Valletts Grid Ref: 39710, 27620 Expiry Date: 28th September 2007 Local Member: Councillor Mrs MJ Fishley 1. Site Description and Proposal 1.1 Doyre House is a red brick faced and slate roofed property on the northern side of the C1233 road. It used to be a property with a shop onto the main thoroughfare in Pontrilas, with accommodation behind the shop and on the first floor. This building has recently been converted into solely residential use, by sub-dividing the imposing Victorian building into 4 residential units. 1.2 The car parking area is down slope from the Class III road; the declining access track is between Doyre House and Woodvale to the west. This car parking area has been approved and designated for use by the planning permission granted last year. The current proposal is to convert the attic space above unit 4 which is on the north- western corner of the building. This will entail providing two additional bedrooms which will be lit by two rooflights in the north facing roof slope. An existing 1.2 metres high by 0.5 metres width window will also be utilised in the south-western gable fronted elevation. 2.

HEREFORDSHIRE Is Repeatedly Referred to in Domesday As Lying In
ABO BLOOD GROUPS, HUMAN HISTORY AND LANGUAGE IN HEREFORDSHIRE WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE LOW B FREQUENCY IN EUROPE I. MORGAN WATKIN County Health Department, Aberystwyth Received6.x.64 1.INTRODUCTION HEREFORDSHIREis repeatedly referred to in Domesday as lying in Wales and the county is regularly described as such in the Pipe Rolls until 1249-50. Of the two dozen or so charters granted to the county town, a number are addressed to the citizens of Hereford in Wales. That fluency in Welsh was until 1855oneof the qualifications for the post of clerk to the Hereford city magistrates indicated the county's bilingual nature. The object of the present investigation is to ascertain whether there is any significant genetic difference between the part of Herefordshire conquered by the Anglo-Saxons and the area called "Welsh Hereford- shire ".Assome moorland parishes have lost 50 per cent. of their inhabitants during the last 50 years, the need to carry out the survey is the more pressing. 2.THE HUMAN HISTORY OF HEREFORDSHIRE Pre-Norman Conquest Offa'sgeneral line of demarcation between England and Wales in the eighth century extending in Herefordshire from near Lyonshall to Bridge Sollars, about five miles upstream from Hereford, is inter- mittent in the well-wooded lowlands, being only found in the Saxon clearings. From this Fox (i) infers that the intervening forest with its dense thickets of thorn and bramble filling the space under the tree canopy was an impassable barrier. Downstream to Redbrook (Glos.) the river was probably the boundary but the ferry crossing from Beachley to Aust and the tidal navigational rights up the Wye were retained by the Welsh—facts which suggest that the Dyke was in the nature of an agreed frontier.
