January 2020 GAZETTE for the parishes of King’s Cliffe Bulwick & Blatherwycke and Laxton JANUARY 2020 Church Notices From the Parish Priest Millennium Development Goals – Twenty Years On These are the ambitious Millennium Development Goals set in 1999 by the United Nations: • To eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. • To achieve universal primary education. • To promote gender equality and to empower women. • To reduce child mortality. • To improve maternal health. • To combat HIV/Aids and Malaria and other diseases. • To ensure environmental sustainability. • To achieve the above with a global partnership for development. In spite of wars, a global recession and the outbreak of diseases such as Ebola, there has been progress to achieve some of these goals, most especially by there being greater access to clean water and there being more children receiving primary education. In 2015 the goals were reviewed and re-assessed but the aims remained largely the same: the ending of poverty and hunger, improving health and education, making cities more sustainable, combating climate change and protecting oceans and forests. As we begin 2020 and the third decade of this century a reminder of words based on a Millennium Prayer. Dear Lord, give us your light; That in our lives we may bring forth hope. Empower us to make a difference for the better in the world. Give us courage to face the challenge to feed the hungry, heal the sick and protect our planet. Amen. Philip Davies From the Parish Registers We welcome into the family of the Church: Paisley-Jayne Elizabeth Snell We extend our thoughts and prayers to all those who are bereaved remembering particularly the family and friends of: Betty Marina Cunnington 2 Church Notices The Benefice of King’s Cliffe, Bulwick & Blatherwycke and Laxton Incumbent Revd Canon Philip Davies 470314 Reader David Teall 450407 Co-ordinator Katy Evans (contact via Benefice Office) Benefice Office [email protected] 479249 The office is open for general enquiries including baptisms and weddings on Tuesdays 10:00–12:30 and Wednesdays 10:30–12:00.

Our first meeting of 2020 will be on Monday 6th January at 12.15 pm in the Ex-Servicemen’s Club when Diana will be entertaining us with her unusual and amusing talk, “The History of Hot Water Bottles”.

Diana on 01780 470427 will be pleased to answer any queries. Happy New Year to everyone!

Sue Trow-Smith 5 News from King’s Cliffe Village Hall Teas Happy New Year from the Village Hall Teas Team! We look forward to welcoming you upstairs in the hall on Sunday January 19th from 2.00pm to 4.30pm for a warming pot of freshly brewed tea or coffee, alongside a selection of our homemade cakes and scones.

Sue Trow-Smith King’s Cliffe Gardeners’ Association Our next meeting will be at 7.30pm on Wednesday 22nd January at KC Active. Following our AGM there will be a talk on ‘Fruit Tree Grafting’ by Kirk. Kirk has a huge amount of gardening experience, including the art of grafting, growing willows and knows the opportunities and challenges of gardening in King’s Cliffe. January can be a bit uninviting outside but there are lots of jobs to do. Cut back summer side shoots of your wisteria to 2 or 3 buds. Prune rose bushes, cutting back to just above a bud, and removing any crossing branches. Cut back ornamental grasses to a few centimetres. Cut down old stems of perennials. Deadhead winter pansies. Harvest parsnips and leeks. Remove yellowing leaves from winter brassicas to minimise pests and disease. Prune apple and pear trees. Prune blackcurrants, gooseberries. Leave plums, cherries, apricots till summer to avoid silver-leaf infections. Force rhubarb plants with an upturned bucket over the crown - new stems should be ready in 8 weeks. Lindsay Kubicki King’s Cliffe Parish Council On behalf of King’s Cliffe Parish Council I wish you all a Happy New Year. Parish Council Re-elections May 2020: Have you ever considered becoming a Parish Councillor? Are you interested in current affairs? Do you wish to serve your Community? Could you provide a voice for residents? If you are interested in finding our more, please contact the Parish Clerk! Tender for Village Grass Cutting: King’s Cliffe Parish Council would like to invite tenders for the grass cutting in the village. It is important to our community to ensure our village is kept tidy for all to enjoy. The County Council (or their replacement authority) has a statutory responsibility for cutting certain areas of grass, but budget cuts mean that they are currently fulfilling only the minimum legal requirement of 3 cuts per year, usually between March/April and October. Outside these times, the Parish Council has voted to take on any work which is needed to keep the village looking tidy, but it is difficult 6 News from King’s Cliffe to predict when and how much is required. The County Council will only give a rough guide of when they will be in the village (and experience indicates that it is not necessarily reliable) and the frequency and number of cuts is also weather- dependent.

Rockingham Forest Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment 1 2 3 White Paper , Biodiversity 2020 and the European Landscape Convention , we are North revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

  • 6.22 Figures 6 and 7 Demonstrates the General Pattern Emerging for The
    Integrated Approach to Sustainable Rural Planning in East Northamptonshire Countryside Agency - East Northamptonshire District Council Final Report - October 2005 6.22 Figures 6 and 7 demonstrates the general pattern emerging for the number of services a place has, in relation to how many people travel to that place to use the services/facilities, therefore we can start to draw up a ranking of service centres. This is developed further in chapter 7 of this report. A summary of the different travel patterns for each service/facility is outlined in the paragraphs below: Main food shopping at major supermarkets (Figure 8) • While all villages rely on larger urban centres outside the district for main food shopping, Oundle still remains a strong pull for all villages to the east of the case study area, which has the only supermarket in the case study area. 25% of the case study area use Oundle for its main food shopping. In addition, 33% of Oundle’s own population complete their main food shopping in the town. However, exceptions are in the 4 villages in the west, which lie on the A43 connecting Corby and Stamford, where residents shop for main food in these two centres. • Peterborough attracts the majority (34%) of shoppers from all villages, including residents from Oundle, except for the villages west of King’s Cliffe. • 89% of people travel by car, although the percentage is slightly less in Oundle, Upper and Lower Benefield, Southwick and Nassington. This is due to either local facilities, people using public transport or shopping via the internet.

It overviews the work that was undertaken and the conclusions that this work came to. The initial work was to provide an interpretation of the Local Plan written definition of ‘village confines’, in order that the planning decision making process would be clearer and more accountable. Difficulties had been encountered in explaining the written policy and the definition to developers and to members of the community, most of whom expect to see a line on a map. Members therefore requested that work be undertaken to draw up lines for each village based on a consistent interpretation of the written definition. Work started in 2002 to meet the structure plan guidelines and Member requirements. Survey work was followed by a series of consultations with Parish Councils and Meetings and then wider consultation on a draft Supplementary Planning Guidance document on village planning boundaries. The work that was carried out was instead incorporated into the preferred options for the local development documents for the district.
