FFI Constance Bowdler 332078 11 CHURCH NEWS A Message from the Rector Charles Roberts My dear friends, It’s official, it’s summer, schools will be working towards the end of term, holidays will be taken, BBQs might happen (weather permitting!), and with luck many of us will be able to enjoy some R&R, some family time, and a chance just to pause and breathe. In the church we’ll be kept busy with weddings and other celebrations, so, “no rest for the ………………..!” That said, my wife and I did have a short break in June and it was a wonderfully refreshing time spent surrounded by the hills and mountains of Austria. While we did manage to resist the urge to bust into a song from the Sound of Music, nevertheless we were impressed by much of what we saw. If you like mountains, (and we do), Austria offers them aplenty, and if spectacular scenery makes you think of the wonders of creation, then Austria delivers in spades. Inevitably we were drawn to look inside a number of the local churches, by and large fairly uniform on the outside, but without doubt quite spectacular on the inside. While ‘high baroque’ may not be to everyone’s taste, few would fail to be impressed by the way these buildings really show off their Christian presence. It is a kind of glitz and glamour fest, with its over-the-top gold decoration and the extraordinary artwork on the ceilings, all beautifully preserved. Yes, in this country we’d find it all a bit ostentatious, while over there it is somehow absolutely fine, but it did make we wonder how we portray the faith of the church at home with our relatively modest décor, and perhaps, yes, humble voice. The kind of gay abandon in Europe seems to me to shout out the gospel from every pore of these buildings, and I think that is a wonderful thing. There is no shame, no coyness about what they are trying to say. This is rich, extravagant Christianity saying Hello to anyone who dares to come in. And there I think they have a point. At the time of writing this, the gospel for the previous Sunday was all about family. Jesus’s own family trying to ‘sort him out and calm him down’ because for them he was not behaving sensibly. He had suddenly gone from being a ‘nice brother’ to going out on a limb, and they didn’t like it at all. Far from coming home quietly, Jesus appeals to the crowds who follow him and tells them they are his family now. It’s a tough riposte to his siblings,

    FRACKING IN NORTH-EAST SOMERSET HOW MANY WELLS AND WHERE MIGHT THEY BE? The present government is keen to promote an American style unconventional gas revolution in Britain. This could mean big industry moving into our neighbourhood with the attendant disruption, potential risks, and effect on house prices. Parts of Somerset have been licensed for exploration and development. Industry interest has focused primarily on coalbed methane (CBM) with shale gas as a secondary possibility. Fracking may be used for both. Extraction of CBM is likely to be occur much nearer the surface than shale. How many wells & where? In 2000 the American CBM company GeoMet Inc.evaluated the CBM potential of the 400 km2 area shown in Fig. 1 Its report was retrieved from publicly available sources by Frack Free Chew Valley (FFCV) and is available with a detailed commentary. [Coalbed Methane Exploration in Somerset, the Chew Valley, Keynsham & the Mendip Hills https://frackfreecv.files.wordpress.com/2014/09/unconventionalgasexplorationinsomerset_160614b.pd f ] Most of the information here comes from that report where full detail and references should be sought. In its 2000 assessment GeoMet decided to concentrate on areas with coal measures at optimum depth , shown in grey in Fig. 1, and to exclude urban areas and areas where the coal had been previously worked. There seems to be no reason why CBM might not be extracted from other coal seams, but it appears that GeoMet first concentrated on the least complicated areas. This "developable" area, 108 km2 , GeoMet stated, could "accommodate" about 300 gas wells. Fig. 1 gives an indication of their location, according to FFCV's assumption of even distribution.

  • Dear, PLOUGHING and CROPPING on PUBLIC RIGHTS of WAY
    Environmental Services Date: 1st September 2017 Civic Centre, Market Walk, Temple Street, Keynsham, Bristol BS31 1LA Our ref: SP/ Minicom: (01225) 394166 Council Connect: (01225) 39 40 41 Your ref: www.bathnes.gov.uk/BathNES/transportandroads Direct line (01225) 394943 Fax: (01225) 394205 E-Mail: sheila_petherbridge@bath nes.gov.uk Dear, PLOUGHING AND CROPPING ON PUBLIC RIGHTS OF WAY. Hopefully you are all well into harvest, the yields are good and you are planning your planting for next year or even the year after. At this time I would like to remind you about the legal requirements with regard to public rights of way should you have any footpaths, bridleways or carriageways across your land. There have been concerns that we have previously been too casual with regard the enforcement procedure regarding ploughing and cropping in the past and need to be more pro-active should the law be broken in the future. We are therefore writing to all farmers who have public rights of way crossing arable fields. Section 134 Highways Act 1980 gives a statutory right to plough or otherwise disturb a cross field right of way in accordance with the rules of good husbandry, (growing a crop). The path can be reasonably disturbed but the surface must be made good to not less than the minimum width so as to make it reasonably convenient for the exercise of the public right of way. On first disturbance the maximum time allowed is 14 days which is intended to allow a succession of operations to be undertaken within that 14 days.
