  • Communications Roads Cheltenham Lies on Routes Connecting the Upper Severn Vale with the Cotswolds to the East and Midlands to the North
    DRAFT – VCH Gloucestershire 15 [Cheltenham] Communications Roads Cheltenham lies on routes connecting the upper Severn Vale with the Cotswolds to the east and Midlands to the north. Several major ancient routes passed nearby, including the Fosse Way, White Way and Salt Way, and the town was linked into this important network of roads by more local, minor routes. Cheltenham may have been joined to the Salt Way running from Droitwich to Lechlade1 by Saleweistrete,2 or by the old coach road to London, the Cheltenham end of which was known as Greenway Lane;3 the White Way running north from Cirencester passed through Sandford.4 The medieval settlement of Cheltenham was largely ranged along a single high street running south-east and north-west, with its church and manorial complex adjacent to the south, and burgage plots (some still traceable in modern boundaries) running back from both frontages.5 Documents produced in the course of administering the liberty of Cheltenham refer to the via regis, the king’s highway, which is likely to be a reference to this public road running through the liberty. 6 Other forms include ‘the royal way at Herstret’ and ‘the royal way in the way of Cheltenham’ (in via de Cheltenham). Infringements recorded upon the via regis included digging and ploughing, obstruction with timbers and dungheaps, the growth of trees and building of houses.7 The most important local roads were those running from Cheltenham to Gloucester, and Cheltenham to Winchcombe, where the liberty administrators were frequently engaged in defending their lords’ rights. Leland described the roads around Cheltenham, Gloucester and Tewkesbury as ‘subject to al sodeyne risings of Syverne, so that aftar reignes it is very foule to 1 W.S.

  • Cotswold Economy Study: Part 2 Volume
    5 Site proformas for existing employment sites Site ref Settlement Overall site area (ha) 1018 / EES30 Coln St Aldwyn 0.25 Site Address Site status: Cockrup Farm Protect Description of site/surrounding uses The Cockrup Farm business units are several small employment converted units, formerly used for agricultural purposes, similar to other developments in rural Cotswold areas. The units are situated within the immediate vicinity of the farmyard and are surrounded by open land. They provide a series of approximately five starter units offering a variety of accommodation from 1,600 – 4,300 sq. ft. There are a range of occupiers including CPM and Paperback Shop Warehouse. Environmental Quality / Constraints The external area is well maintained and has the characteristics of a high quality farmyard. There is good circulation and adequate parking. The site is flat and has all modern utilities on the site. There are no on-site environmental constraints or no contamination or other related issues. The surrounding environment consists of high quality open countryside, agricultural land and the village of Coln St Aldwyn. The amenity of adjacent occupiers is not an issue due to the rural location. However, the site is within the Cotswold AONB and a Conservation Area. Accessibility / Strategic Access The site suffers from poor access via a single track rural road, approximately 2.5 miles away from the A road network. The site is restricted by its isolated rural location and the lack of facilities for the workforce on site or within the village add to its unsustaibability. The nearest bus services are from Fairford (2.5 miles) away, which has services to Swindon and Lechlade (74), Kempsford (75) and Cricklade (76).
