this Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment for the Peak sub region. The study has been commissioned by Derbyshire Dales District Council (DDDC), the Peak District National Park Authority (PDNPA) and High Peak Borough Council (HPBC). The base date for the study is 1st April 2008. 1.2 The study aim, as specified by the project brief, is to identify a supply of land and buildings with the potential to deliver residential development in accordance with the requirements of PPS3. The brief also requires that, as part of the process, the study should identify sites where

Alternatively, if you’re unable to help out due to health reasons, please inform Ann who will remove you from the rota. Ann is also aware that some members don’t necessarily attend the monthly main meetings. If this applies to you please contact Ann who will remove you from the rota Refreshments, Meeting & Greeting, Books Rosters 2017 The Rota has now been updated and those members who haven’t renewed their membership have been deleted.

  • An Assessment of the Orthodontic Treatment Needs of the Resident
    An assessment of the orthodontic treatment needs of the resident population of Derbyshire, Derby, Nottinghamshire and Nottingham compared with the level of current service provision - 2018 1 Executive Summary NHS orthodontic care is the treatment of malocclusions and is provided in both primary and secondary care, but the majority is provided in primary care for those cases of index of orthodontic treatment need of 3.6 and above. Across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, a total of 40 contracts were commissioned to provide orthodontics within primary care (2016-17). Practitioners were contracted to provide either mixed GDS and orthodontic care (27 contracts) or purely orthodontic care (13 contracts). All commissioned activity is recurrent. March 2019 sees the expiry of the majority of PDS Orthodontic contracts across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire (12 contracts). The remaining general and orthodontic contracts are not available for procurement as they have no end date. Estimates have been made of the numbers of cases delivered by the hospital services, however it is unknown whether there may be the potential for some cases to be delivered in a primary care specialist setting. The recently implemented referral management system will support delivery of care in the most appropriate environment for the needs of the individual patient. There are various methods of determining orthodontic treatment need in a population which have been explored for the population of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire and produce broadly comparable estimates. The estimated number of case starts per year within Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire requiring access to orthodontic treatment when only demand (and not caries) is considered, based on the locally available epidemiological evidence and taking into account predicted population growth between 2008 and 2029 lies within the range 7144 and 8458.

It identifies the basic actions we must collectively take if we are to protect and enhance the key biodiversity of this region. The UK Government recognises its international obligations and the economic urgency to protect biodiversity and ecosystems. This LBAP is part of that delivery and local reporting mechanism. Only those habitats and species meeting the UKBAP definitions of ‘Priority Habitat’ or ‘Priority Species’ are included in the targets for the Lowland Derbyshire Action Plans.

    Area News South Yorkshire and North-East Derbyshire Area Winter 2011/12 Annual Report and AGM Annual General Meeting This year the AGM will be hosted by Bolsover Group, and will be held on Saturday 28th January 2012 at 2pm at the Assembly Rooms, Hilltop, Bolsover S44 6NG grid ref SK473705. Bolsover is on the A632 east of Chesterfield. There will be a ramble before the AGM, starting from the Assembly Rooms at 1030. It will return in time for people to eat sandwiches (bring your own) before the meeting starts. Most existing Area officers are willing to stand for re-election, but Lee Farmery, our Chair for the last three years, plans to step down, and we are still looking for someone to do the Footpaths Secretary role. Anyone who would like to propose someone for a post should contact our Secretary David Gadd (address on the back page) or speak to Lee Farmery on 07789 077575. We will also elect the Area’s delegates to the national General Council. This is an impor- tant part of how the Ramblers works as a democratic organisation. We will also have interesting speakers to help us catch up on local and national developments. Chair’s Report I would like to say a big thank you to all of our new and existing volunteers within the SYNED Area for their efforts over the past Page 2 Area News year, be it leading a walk, actively campaigning, keeping us in- formed of issues, promoting the Ramblers and much more. The work of our volunteers often appears to go unnoticed, but they are an essential part of how the Ramblers operate.

    Skidmore Lead Miners of Derbyshire & their descendants 1600-1915 Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study 2015 www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com [email protected] SKIDMORE LEAD MINERS OF DERBYSHIRE, AND THEIR DESCENDANTS 1600-1915 by Linda Moffatt 2nd edition by Linda Moffatt© March 2016 1st edition by Linda Moffatt© 2015 This is a work in progress. The author is pleased to be informed of errors and omissions, alternative interpretations of the early families, additional information for consideration for future updates. She can be contacted at [email protected] DATES Prior to 1752 the year began on 25 March (Lady Day). In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter. BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS Databases of all known Skidmore and Scudamore bmds can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com PROBATE A list of all known Skidmore and Scudamore wills - many with full transcription or an abstract of its contents - can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com in the file Skidmore/Scudamore One-Name Study Probate.
