COVER Advent is a season observed in many Western Christian churches as a time of expectant waiting and preparation for the celebration of the Nativity of Jesus at Christmas. The term is an anglicized version of the Latin word adventus, meaning "coming". Printed by Classic Printing Ltd. Tel. 01452 731539 2 43 COLIN BARNFATHER IT FROM THE STUDY WINDOW BA CEng MIET MRAeS MCMI “Oh simple things, where have you gone?” You might recognise these words from the cover of Keane’s 2004 single, Computer Training in Your Own Home ‘Somewhere only we know’. I suspect you will know it more as the One to one instruction and trouble shooting soundtrack, sung by Lilly Allen in the Christmas advert for John Lewis. The advert tells the story of Bear and his faithful friend Hare. Bear has 01242 680877 www.colinbarnfather.co.uk never experienced Christmas because as soon as the first snowflakes fall indicating winter is coming, Bear makes his way back to his den, in order to hibernate. Hare is sad that Bear will miss Christmas and decides to give his friend a gift, an A company that’s at the very alarm clock, which wakes Bear up and so, we are all Heart of the community. delighted to see Bear appearing over the horizon — amazed, eyes wide opened, witnessing Christmas The Robert Hitchins Group for the first time and all because his faithful friend gave him a present. Boddington Manor, Cheltenham 680694 The marketing director of John Lewis said, “We wanted our advert to reflect the importance of finding the right gift for friends and family”. And of course John Lewis will be the place to find the right gift no doubt! A heart warming animation that cost some £7 million and was a move by the retailer according to John Lewis’ chief executive Andy Street, to ‘Position itself as owning Christmas in the UK.” I have to say without “CHRIST” you would have no Christmas. I think God has the monopoly on Christmas! As you think about the right gift for your family members and friends this Christmas, you might want to consider - young and old alike - ‘THE GIFT’ God gave us, in his son, Jesus Christ. God came down to us to show us how much we are loved and that he is with us, no matter where or what HATHAWAY circumstances we may find ourselves in this Christmas - it’s that simple!

  • Down Hatherley – a Short History
    Down Hatherley – A Short History W.D. Pereira (copyright rests with Helen Hail) W.D. Pereira The village of Down Hatherley, close to the River Severn in Gloucestershire, England, has been inhabited for almost 2000 years. A 6 acre field contains the remains of a Roman villa which although never formally excavated has produced coins and a brooch of that period. A Saxon burial site has also been found in the same field. The name Hatherley in the Domesday Book stems from the word Atherlai meaning a hawthorn clearing. There is also an Up Hatherley on higher ground away from the river. In the Domesday survey of 1086 it is recorded that one Edmar a thane held Atherlai during the reign of Edward the Confessor (1042-1066). It seems after the death of Edward, Atherlai was appropriated by King Harold. On Harold’s defeat and death at Hastings in 1066, the land was recorded under the title of Terra Regis, with others which William the Conqueror seized 1 as his own property. The Domesday Book incidentally was conceived at the Gloucester Parliament before the one in Westminster. Down Hatherley was later attached to a Baron Giffard and in 1311 held by a Sir John de Wyllenton until being passed on by marriage to a Sir John Willoughby in 1389. Notably a Sir Fulke Greville (1554-1628) succeeded to the estate, again through marriage. Greville himself served at the royal courts of both Queen Elizabeth I and King James I, holding several high government offices. He had been knighted by the Queen and he owned Warwick Castle so Down Hatherley was a minor property.

Introduction Gloucestershire’s Local Area Agreement is now in its second year. This refreshed LAA builds on the strong foundations provided by our recently-agreed Sustainable Community Strategy, and on the priorities we set out in our first Local Area Agreement. This last year has seen partners focussing their efforts on the outcomes agreed at the beginning of April 2007. Partners have worked together to target issues ranging from reducing anti-social behaviour to promoting renewable energy installations and increasing the number of adults gaining NVQ2-level qualifications. In some areas partners have achieved national acclaim – Gloucestershire’s Warm and Well scheme has been held up as a national exemplar by DeFRA – and in all areas we have worked to join up our efforts to tackle what is important to local people. Over the coming three years partners will work to improve outcomes for children, support people back into work, improve skills for all age groups, reduce smoking, support carers, help older people to live more independent lives, tackle fuel poverty, address the causes and consequences of climate change, tackle crime and the fear of crime, and continue to make Gloucestershire a place where people want to live, work and visit.

The report has been broken down into the three JCS urban centres – land around Gloucester, land around Cheltenham and land around Tewkesbury. It also includes land around Bishop‟s Cleeve and though it is not considered that this settlement forms part of the urban area of Cheltenham, its proximity to Cheltenham has led to its wider exploration. The analysis comprised of two distinct areas of work: The first was a landscape characterisation process where the landscape around the settlements was surveyed and divided into distinct character areas. Each area was then described following the standard methodology described below. Once the landscape character had been spatially identified and then described, the second area of work - a sensitivity analysis followed. The objective of this work was to assign relative value as to the sensitivity of the landscape to large scale development, with the main output being the maps that show the various sensitivities for the specific areas. The intention is that these are used as one part of the process to identify development sites within the JCS area.
