Fuller, Heather From: Fuller, Heather Sent: 21 May 2014 09:54 To: Owen, David Subject: FW: Knighton ward changes Stoneygate shops ‐‐‐‐‐Original Message‐‐‐‐‐ From: Andy Ritchie Sent: 20 May 2014 16:15 To: Reviews@ Subject: Knighton ward changes Stoneygate shops I Andy Ritchie write as the owner of Deli Flavour located at As a local business trading currently in Knighton Ward I wish to object to your proposals to move the Stoneygate Shops area (Allandale Road and Francis Street) in to the Stoneygate Ward. To do so would show a total lack of reference to the local communities. We have over many years been well supported by the Knighton community, via the public Community Meetings of the Council. They have supported us to improve our area and to run events. This has included financial support via grants which receive public backing at meetings. In contrast at the Stoneygate Ward Community Meetings such applications have not received support. There have been public expressions, we feel, that are based on ethnicity and class, which has resulted in no support being forthcoming. Moving Stoneygate Shops into the Stoneygate Ward will break a link developed with one community which shows its support in tangible As some of you may know, the local Ward Councils are shifting their boundaries and this directly affects the chance of FUTURE markets at Stoneygate, as your area will now become part of the Stoneygate Ward, as opposed to the supportive Knighton Ward. Those who attended the Stoneygate meeting recently will have witnessed that there is no interest from the Stoneygate Ward in supporting initiatives like the Stoneygate Market and would not help fund it. Thanks Andy Ritchie 1 Fuller, Heather From: Egan, Helen Sent: 20 May 2014 15:24 To: Owen, David Subject: FW: Review of Leicester Ward Boundaries - Aylestone Hi David, Please see the below sub from Leicester. Regards, Helen From: Shirley Rogers Sent: 20 May 2014 12:40 To: Reviews@ Subject: Review of Leicester Ward Boundaries - Aylestone I am writing to you to object to your proposal to split the existing Aylestone ward, in particular combining Aylestone Village with Eyres Monsell. This proposal ignores the lack of any community cohesion between these two areas and separates the long- standing combination of Aylestone Village with Aylestone Park along the Aylestone Road. Such a combination has never been even proposed before in previous reviews of the City boundaries as there is no natural co-affinity, and there is no indication that this has changed since the last boundary review in 2002. I note that proper separation of Saffron and Eyres Monsell is one of the stated aims of this review recognising them as separate communities. This should not be at the detriment of no longer recognising Aylestone Village as a separate community from Eyres Monsell just to equalise the electoral arithmetic. Eyres Monsell and Aylestone have their own community centres and local groups and do not rely on, or look to one another. The previous 2002 review originally proposed a different arrangement of two three-member wards for the Aylestone/Saffron/Eyres Monsell area, but after consultation this was reversed to the current three two- member ward arrangement, specifically because of there being three identifiable community groupings. No case has been made for this now only being two and the arguments made then remain valid today. As the council is not elected by thirds there is no practical need to have three member wards. As this is to to the detriment of representation of distinct communities I therefore request that this is reconsidered. Gerald and Shirley Rogers Aylestone 1 Fuller, Heather From: Fuller, Heather Sent: 20 May 2014 09:51 To: Owen, David Subject: FW: Reviews From: Sent: 17 May 2014 12:01 To: Reviews@ Subject: Reviews I am emailing to say how wrong it is to change the name of Aylestone Leicester to Saffron or Eyres Monsell. Aylestone was a area long before the other two came in to being. Saffron and Eyres Monsell were created as estates in their own right one before the war and one after,so why change anything we prefer to be called Aylestone.People know us as Aylestone and it it just making it difficult for everyone. We have our own community and we just do not want to be renamed. Hopefully you will take the wishes of the people of Aylestone into consideration when the decision is made. Thank you Linda Santy AYLESTONE. 1 Local Boundary Commission for England Consultation Portal Page 1 of 1 City of Leicester Personal Details: Name: Mat Scull E-mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Comment text: As a resident of the current Aylestone ward in Leicester, I support the proposals put forward by the Boundary Comission on March 10th 2014 for the following reasons: - Reduction in the democratic deficit present in some Leicester wards - Better focus on the Aylestone village area for surrounding residents - Reuniting Aylestone Park with the Saffron Lane area Regards, Mat Scull Uploaded Documents: None Uploaded https://consultation.lgbce.org.uk/node/print/informed-representation/3376 20/05/2014 Local Boundary Commission for England Consultation Portal Page 1 of 1 City of Leicester Personal Details: Name: Graham Short E-mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Comment text: Leave things as they are, if I wanted to live on the Eyres monsell I would have bought a house there for about £50,000.00 pounds less, not happy.

Not sure why they want to do this to the long serving locals of Olde Aylestone but I as a resident I am opposed to it. Aylestone is a lovely little village with mostly middle class citizens, if you are going to split it, then essentially you are making Ayestone into a working class residential area. If this is indeed what you are designing then please let me know and I will move, as I guess when or if it does go ahead most of the locals will move anyway, allowing the working class to move in and downgrade the area. Regards Jason 1 Fuller, Heather From: Fuller, Heather Sent: 24 March 2014 09:08 To: Owen, David Subject: FW: Leicester Ward Boundaries From: Kris Smith Sent: 22 March 2014 10:30 To: Reviews@ Subject: Leicester Ward Boundaries Dear Sir / Madam Undertaking a review into the ward boundaries within Leicester is somewhat academic and meaningless. The real issue in Leicester and other cities like it is the boundary of the city itself. The total urban conurbation of Leicester far exceeds the land within the official city boundary and it would make more sense to greatly extend the city boundary outwards in all directions to absorb all of the villages and suburban sprawl within the total conurbation. This would result in savings in local government administration and deliver more accurate political representation. Where is the democracy at Leicester and other cities like it when 52 electoral seats out of 54 are held by a single political party?

This clash should have been flagged up earlier before the wheels were put in motion As for the ward boundaries being moved, this is also a major blow to The Allandale Road shopping area as when we attended the Stoneygate ward meeting it was very clear that the people who lived in the Highfields and Evington Road areas were very hostile to us, viewing the area as snobby and wildly expensive! This may have applied long ago but certainly not now. This shopping area is supposed to be 'the jewel in Leicester's crown' but trading here is difficult and we need help with funding for events to help revive and boost the area. We feel that the Knighton ward were much more sympathetic to our plight and fully understood that for these events to happen we needed help with funding. The people of Knighton ward are proud of the Allandsle Road shopping area and are keen to see it survive and improve as we are. The people in Stoneygate ward didn't care if It disappeared altogether! Very Concerned, Andy, Sue, Hannah and Jack Suffolk Outerspace Home & Garden Sent from my iPhone 1 Fuller, Heather From: Fuller, Heather Sent: 28 April 2014 14:30 To: Owen, David Subject: FW: Proposed changes to the ward boundaries in SW Leicester From: kathy summerton Sent: 28 April 2014 13:10 To: Reviews@ Subject: Proposed changes to the ward boundaries in SW Leicester I woud like you to reconsider the proposal to divide Aylestone.

If you and do not reflect in any way those of need them please email : this Newsletter’s editorial team. [email protected] or telephone: 0116 454 1001 East-West Link Road : A Phoenix from the Ashes The East-West Link Road in its various forms has been an idea since 1916. The most recent serious attempt to build a road bridge across Leicester’s green lungs of Aylestone Meadows was in the early nineties when Bede Island was being regenerated. Fortunately, fierce local opposition and ever increasing costs caused councillors at County Hall who were then responsible for building new roads, to abandon the idea. However, Leicester City Council has been consulting about including it in the next Local Plan. The Local Plan is an attempt by the City Council to meet the needs of its citizens for homes, jobs and leisure for the next 15 years. Another round of consultation on the next stage of the Local Plan will take place later this year. The current proposed route is from Narborough Road along Evesham Road and through Aylestone Meadows to Aylestone Road. It will then cross St. Mary’s to join with Saffron Lane. A local campaign group called “End of the Road LE3” wants the City Council to remove it from any future Local Plan.

  • Glen Parva History
    The Parish of Glen Parva Glen Parva is a civil parish in Leicestershire, United Kingdom with a population of over 5,000. It is bordered to the north by Aylestone and to the east by Eyres Monsell and South Wigston. Aylestone and Eyres Monsell are both districts of the City of Leicester. To the south and west it is bordered by open countryside. The Parish Council has its offices at the Memorial Hall on Dorothy Avenue. The Hall was built to commemorate residents of the Parish who fell in World War II. The Grand Union Canal near Glen Parva The Grand Union Canal passes to the south of the village where it runs parallel with the River Sence before the canal turns north, to the west of the village and then runs parallel to the River Soar. The Sence is a tributary of the Soar which in turn is a tributary of the River Trent. History “GLENN-PARVA, a township in Aylestone parish, Leicestershire; on the river Soar and the Union canal, 4 miles SSW of Leicester. Real property, £1,894. Pop., 119. Houses, 30.” (Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales 1870-72) Glen Parva was originally included in the Aylestone Ecclesiastical Parish but after the Local Government Act of 1894 it became a civil parish within the Rural District of Blaby. It is generally accepted that the original settlement of Glen Parva was situated near ‘The Ford’ on the River Sence, an area which is now known locally as ‘Glen Ford’. There is limited evidence of prehistoric activity in this area but excavations in 1962 on the site of a moated enclosure some 150m to the south-east of the area exposed a possible roundhouse, with a hearth, an oven and a cobbled surface associated with Late Bronze Age pottery.

  • Leicester City Labour Group City of Leicester New Ward Boundary Narrative
    Patrick Kitterick For the attention of the Local Government Boundary Commission for England Please find attached the following files in relation to Leicester City Labour Party’s submission regarding the LGBCE’s review of boundaries for Leicester City Council. -PDF Map of the New City of Leicester Ward Boundaries as proposed by Leicester City Labour Party. -PDF Table of the numbers for each ward and variances for the New City of Leicester Ward Boundaries as proposed by Leicester City Labour Party. -Narrative on Proposed New Wards -Data files supplied by Leicester City Council which I believe are compatible with LGBCE systems which give the detailed data surrounding our proposals. If this is, in any way, incompatible with the supplied maps and narrative please contact me to resolve any confusion.. The overall approach of Leicester City Labour Party has been to produce a detailed, validated, city wide proposal for Leicester. We have used the River Soar as a primary definer of boundaries in the city, we have also made greater use of the railway lines in the city as a definer of boundaries and finally we have used major roads as a point to either divide wards or build wards depending on whether they divide communities or have communities grow around them. For the necessity of providing balanced numbers we have had to use minor roads as the final definer of boundaries. Overall we have reduced the number of wards from 22 to 20 and we have kept wards co-terminus with current parliamentary boundaries, as they too provide strong community and natural boundaries.
