He moved to Avebury Trusloe in October having previously lived in Swindon for 30 years. His wife, Sue, also volunteers in the shop and will feature in a future article. Graham wanted to move to a more rural community and ended up in Avebury by chance because a house came up. He is really glad that he made the move. For the last year Graham has been a full- time homemaker/builder/handyman as well as having a number of part time jobs. Before this he had a varied career, including working in retail banking for 15 years. Graham wanted to work in the shop because he was keen to contribute to a local community and he loves interacting with people. As well as serving in the shop, Graham also bakes the bread regularly. His favourite products are freshly baked bread, local plum jam and Ramsbury ales and gin. Product Update If you are planning a picnic we have lots of lovely local produce for you to enjoy. We have Sumbler’s (our local butchers) pies and pasties, local vegetarian, vegan and gluten free pies, local yoghurts, individual cheese cakes, couscous, salads as well as a choice of local cheeses. We also stock West Country crisps and pop corn. We also have lots of soft drinks as well as local beers and ales and plenty of wines to wash it all down with. Don’t forget we have individual tubs of ice cream from Devizes. Local Deliveries Please don’t forget that we can deliver to you if you are unable to come into the shop. Just give us a ring on the number at the top of this article. Michele Lomas (Chair of Avebury Community Shop) Recognition for Richard our Postman’s Service Richard has been delivering mail in Broad Hinton and Uffcott for 20 years now. Although he has no intention of retiring, his customers thought it high time that this long service was properly recognised. He has therefore become the first recipient of a new honour – he’s been created an Officer of the Most Excellent Order of Broad Hinton & Uffcott. He has of course been given a scroll and medal to prove it, plus a gift as token of the high esteem in which he is held. Richard is a good friend to all, unfailingly cheerful. He willingly helps with all kinds of problems, mail-related or not. He even attends the funerals of his customers and tips off the Rector if he knows of anyone in need of comfort. We are very lucky to have him as our postman and hope that he will continue to deliver our mail for very many more years.

Planning Report Cllr LaRoche provided a full planning update to Councillors: 19/01864/OUT. Freshfields, P.O.Lane, Broad Hinton. Outline planning application only for erection of one, 3 bedroom dwelling and one, 4 bedroom dwelling within the curtilage of Freshfields, including demolition of two single storey garages and improvements to vehicular access. Objection. Wilts approved with conditions. The Officer’s Report states: Neighbours and the parish council highlighted inaccuracies with the red line plan, which included part of neighbouring land owned by 3rd parties on whom Notice had not been served. The application as submitted was thus invalid, with the incorrect Ownership Certificate having been completed. A revised red-line re-defining the application site has been received. The revision did not include any additional land but has been subject to some neighbour re- consultation. The scale and appearance/ design of the houses is not for consideration. There is nothing in the layout proposed to suggest any material impact on neighbouring amenities however in terms of loss of light or privacy, or any overbearing impact. These would be considered in a subsequent application for approval of the reserved matters of appearance, landscaping and scale The bank no longer being a defining characteristic of the street to an extent whereby removal of the small section proposed would have a material impact that would support refusal of the application. The Highway Officer is satisfied with the revised access arrangement, which would provide for adequate visibility along the street. A subsequent revision to the tree report however identifies that the incursion within the RPA would be minimal, and this is accepted by the Tree Officer. 19/03553/FUL. The Chapel, Horton Way, Broad Hinton. Loft conversion with dormer windows. New application including obscure glass in window overlooking side and rear property. Previous application did not include obscure glass window and was refused. No objection as applicant complied with requested changes. Awaiting Wilts decision. 19/03975/FUL. Charbil, 39 Fortunes Field, Broad Hinton. Single storey rear extension and first floor extension including internal alterations. No objections. Awaiting Wilts decision. 19/05428/FUL. 34 Pitchens End, Broad Hinton. Single storey rear extension. No objections. Awaiting Wilts decision. 19/05369/FUL. 1 New Cottages, Uffcott. Revision to Planning Application approval 18/11092/FUL. Front elevation rendered and painted white. Large single garage door to detached garage. On circulation. 19/05094/FUL and 19/05513/LBC. 142 High Street, Broad Hinton. Full Planning Application and Listed Building consent for new external window, roof light and internal renovations including walls. On circulation. 6 Highways and Maintenance Cllr Gunter had provided a written report in his absence: HIGHWAYS ISSUES – CATG 1. Drains & Gulleys A new gully service has been introduced by Wiltshire to provide assistance with the gully emptying in quiet housing estates and low usage roads in villages. This enables smaller villages/ parishes who are not visited regularly by the main contractor to have the opportunity of a gully clearance service. The tanker operates on a rota basis around the whole of the county meaning that once a request is received Wiltshire will endeavour to visit our area within a six-week period.

Bristol BS32 4UD A X . s . 2 6 -5 - 9 A / - . REVISION PURPOSE PREPARED CHECKED REVIEWED BY BY BY ENVIRONMENT AGENCY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This document is Volume One of a two volume Final Report on the Kennet and Coin River Levels Study and considers the Upper Kennet catchment above Knighton gauging station. The Study was commissioned largely as a result of public concern that the character of the river had changed over the last 30 years. The fundamental concern was with reduced river levels and the general view was that reductions were caused, in great part, by groundwater abstraction for public supply outside the Kennet catchment. The Study was divided into two stages and an Interim Report on the Stage One Study was issued in December 1991. This Report updates the findings of the Stage One Study and presents the findings for both Stage One and Stage Two. Stage One of the Study considered how the four main measures of the character of the catchment viz: ° Groundwater levels ° Surface flow, water level and the upper limit of flow ° Water quality ° Flora and fauna have changed with time.

  • September 2016 UK and Throughout the World Has Been Pretty Remarkable
    View from the Rectory The influence of the Taize community on the church in the September 2016 UK and throughout the world has been pretty remarkable. The monastic community in a small village in Burgundy has never advertised, or recruited, or marketed its style of worship. But all over Britain, and throughout the world, there are churches running Taize services. The focus of the services is on silence, reflection and the meditative weaving together of prayer and music. Taize came from the protestant tradition but from the outset was also deeply committed to religious unity, and the services are such that people of all faiths and of none are welcomed alongside Christians of all denominations In 1940, as another war was beginning, Brother Roger moved to the tiny village of Taizé in France’s Burgundy region. There, during the war years, he sheltered political refugees, especially Jewish people, and began to develop the idea of an ecumenical community in which men from Notice Board many different traditions - Catholic, Orthodox, Protestants - Weddings would live together under vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Brother Roger’s dream became a reality on Jeanette Palmer & 6 August Fyfield Easter Sunday, 1949, when the first few brothers, all Vincent Peters Protestants, took their vows. Eventually, they were joined by Catholic brothers; today the brothers come from many Harry Charlton of Beckhampton and Georgina different Christian traditions and from many different Hunt will be getting married at Kirtling this month, countries. and we remember them in our prayers. The mission of the Taizé community is not simply the unity of Christians; they work and pray towards solidarity with Funeral faiths of all kinds, and with people of all sorts, especially Joan Hawkins 18 August Fyfield those living in extremes of poverty, hunger, or disease.

  • Broad Hinton and Winterbourne Bassett Parish Council
    Broad Hinton and Winterbourne Bassett Parish Council 2019 Feedback on proposed changes to Electoral Boundary Review The Electoral Commission’s original Boundary review recommendations to Parliament in Sept 2018 included our Parish (Broad Hinton & Winterbourne Bassett) in the West Selkley ward, Marlborough Area and new Devizes & East Wilts constituency. Since then it has been proposed to move us from not only our Ward, but also our Area Board and Constituency. The information set out below supports statistically and historically, why we believe we should and can remain according to the Commission’s 3 criteria. The Commission states;- In drawing up a pattern of electoral divisions, the Commission must balance it’s three statutory criteria, namely: 1. To deliver electoral equality where each county councillor represents roughly the same number of electors as others across the county. 2. That the pattern of divisions should, as far as possible, reflect the interests and identities of local communities. 3. That the electoral arrangements should provide for effective and convenient local government. Our Parish’s connection with Marlborough is substantial. Within our Parish we hold 4500 years of historic, geological, farming and community links with Marlborough.The Chalk Hackpen Hill White Horse, part of the Ridgeway Roman road to Avebury and Neolithic stones all lie within our Parish, connecting us along the Winterbournes and the waterway flows direct from Marlborough to our Parish. We are included in the Marlborough Downs. The North Wessex Downs AONB, which covers the entirety of Marlborough area, extends to our Parish and to Clyffe Pypard. Unfortunately, this substantial connection to Marlborough and not to Lyneham area doesn’t seem to hold any water with the Commission and it is perceived to be only about numbers.
