  • Stroud District Local Plan Review Draft Local Plan Consultation
    Stroud District Local Plan Review: Draft Local Plan Consultation The Berkeley Estate Stroud District Local Plan Review Draft Local Plan Consultation Representations prepared by Savills on behalf of ‘The Trustees of the Berkeley Settlement’ (The Berkeley Estate) savills.co.uk January 2020 1 Stroud District Local Plan Review: Draft Local Plan Consultation Introduction 1. These representations have been prepared by Savills on behalf of The Berkeley Estate (TBE) in response to the consultation on the Draft Stroud District Local Plan (Draft LP) which ends on 22 January 2020. 2. The Berkeley family, who remain integral to TBE, has been associated with Berkeley since the 12th Century. The family’s long term commitment to the area, its community and the rural economy means that the use/development of its land is important to its legacy. For the same reason, TBE also engages with the development of the wider District, and takes an active interest in the Development Plan process. 3. TBE land interest is focused in the south western part of the District, extending to approximately 6,000 acres in Gloucestershire’s Berkeley Vale. It includes a mediaeval Deer Park, a number of farms let to farming tenants (where the families have often been on the land for generations), cottages, offices, a hotel and two pubs. TBE also owns the New Grounds at Slimbridge, where the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust is based, and about five miles of the bed of the River Severn. It is a vibrant business providing employment and business opportunities. 4. Specific comments within these representations are made in respect of the proposed allocations relating to the ‘land at Focus School, Wanswell’, ‘Sharpness Garden Village’ and ‘Wisloe Garden Village’.

  • Stroud Labour Party
    Gloucestershire County Council single member ward review Response from Stroud Constituency Labour Party Introduction On 30 November the Local Government Boundary Commission started its second period of consultation for a pattern of divisions for Gloucestershire. Between 30 November and 21 February the Commission is inviting comments on the division boundaries for GCC. Following the completion of its initial consultation, the Commission has proposed that the number of county councillors should be reduced from 63 to 53. The districts have provided the estimated numbers for the electorate in their areas in 2016; the total number for the county is 490,674 so that the average electorate per councillor would be 9258 (cf. 7431 in 2010). The main purpose of this note is to draw attention to the constraints imposed on proposals for a new pattern of divisions in Stroud district, which could lead to anomalies, particularly in ‘bolting together’ dissimilar district wards and parishes in order to meet purely numerical constraints. In it own words ‘the Commission aims to recommend a pattern of divisions that achieves good electoral equality, reflects community identities and interests and provides for effective and convenient local government. It will also seek to use strong, easily-identifiable boundaries. ‘Proposals should demonstrate how any pattern of divisions aids the provision of effective and convenient local government and why any deterioration in equality of representation or community identity should be accepted. Representations that are supported by evidence and argument will carry more weight with the Commission than those which merely assert a point of view.’ While a new pattern of ten county council divisions is suggested in this note, it is not regarded as definitive but does contain ways of avoiding some possible major anomalies.

  • The Fleece Medical Society
    Bristol Medico-Chirurgical Journal January/April 1983 The Fleece Medical Society H. J. Eastes, M.B., B.S., F.R.C.G.P. General Practitioner, Marshfield The Bristol Medico-Chirurgical Society was formed in 1874 and 9 years later a hundred years ago its journal first appeared. However, some 84 years ear- lier, on 21st May 1788, five members of our pro- fession all school friends or fellow students met in the parlour of the Fleece Inn at Rodborough, in the valley between Stroud and Nailsworth and resolved to set up the Gloucestershire Medical Society, better known as the Fleece Medical Society. The Fleece Inn, built in 1753, was patronised by members of the woollen trade which flourished in the valley. In 1853 the licence seems to have been transferred to a building nearer Stroud and known as the Old Fleece Inn. The original building in which Jenner and his friends met is now a private residence Hillgrove House on the A46 (Figure 1). Two of the five members founding the Fleece Medical Society, Edward Jenner of Berkeley and John Hickes of Gloucester, were already members of the Convivio-Medical Society meeting at the Ship Inn at Alveston near Bristol, a largely social club whose members were threatening to expel Jenner for his insistence on the importance of Coxpox as a protection against Smallpox. This may have been the spur that brought these five friends together to form what was, I believe, the oldest provincial medical society of which records still exist. The minutes are preserved, thanks to Sir William Osier The original Fleece Inn who bought them from Dr.

  • Woodchester Parish Design Statement
    Woodchester Parish Design Statement The Design Statement describes the visual qualities and features of the Parish, as seen through the eyes of local residents. It sets out the key qualities of the Parish environment and the local values put upon them. It seeks to inspire future development that can respect and enhance the unique character of Woodchester. I believe the production of this document will show how people and their locally elected representatives can get more involved in planning for their areas. This is the essence of the Government’s Big Society ambitions. A good planning system is essential for the economy, environment and society. It represents a genuine opportunity for the local community to influence the future of the place where they live. As such, it can be considered an important initial step towards genuine neighbourhood planning, as proposed in the recently passed Localism Act. It will assist the delivery of good and informed contemporary designs that will be in harmony with the environment and local community aspirations. It should enable local people to exercise influence as well as inform the District Council’s planning policies and decisions. This work, I believe, can make a real difference to Woodchester. Finally, the community work within this Design Statement will enhance the understanding between the District Council, the local community, designers, and developers, in a meaningful and collaborative way. I therefore support and welcome this document.
