Calne Town Council Amenities Committee 09/12/2019 “River Marden Day ” Launch – Bid for Funding Report of the Head of Busin Calne Town Council Amenities Committee 09/12/2019 “River Marden Day ” launch – bid for funding Report of the Head of Business 1. Purpose of the report The purpose of this report is to request that members provide funding for a “River Marden Day” event as the catalyst to launch the River Marden modelling project with the Bristol Avon Rivers Trust which was approved earlier this year and as part of our wider Climate and Environmental Pledge. The launch event will be designed to educate and inspire residents to better understand, love and respect their river for the key part it plays in Calne. The key outcome of the funding will be to deliver a “River Marden Day” event on 16 May 2020 involving a host of local organisations. 2. Background The River Marden is the only chalk stream to feed into the River Avon, therefore its’ health is of major importance and plays a major environmental and community part in the design of the town centre and is enjoyed by local people and visitors alike. The River Marden in Calne has been neglected and almost forgotten in the days since the Harris factory was closed. The most recent survey undertaken by Environmental Agency in 2016, stated that only 17% of the rivers in England are healthy. The River Marden was not on the healthy list. The River Marden rises near Calstone Wellington. It then flows in a north west direction through Blacklands Park and Quemerford, where it is joined on the right bank by the Rivers Brook. The Abberd Brook then joins it and the river turns in a westerly direction and is joined by the overspill from Bowood Lake. The river is then joined by the combined Fishers and Cowage brooks before turning to the north-west, past the village of Stanley where it joins the Bristol Avon to the north east at the hamlet of Avon. A river modelling project was given approval at Full Council on 17 June 2019 in partnership with Bristol Avon Rivers Trust. The project will produce a detailed costed improvement opportunities document. 3. History The Domesday survey of England in 1086 records four watermills on the Marden at Calne. In the 18th century four fulling mills are recorded and one of these, Upper Mill, became a paper mill in 1768 and continued in operation until 1860. Hassell's Mill at Studley remained in operation until 1960. 4. Current Situation The Town Council made a Climate Change & Environmental Pledge on 17 June 2019 and will work towards being carbon neutral by 2030. Flow rates have significantly decreased over the last few years, leading to sections of the river to become heavily silted and with little flow. There are areas where trees have collapsed and have not been removed thus causing blockages or flow restrictions. The River Marden is an underutilised resource to mitigate climate change could do more to reduce the carbon footprint of the town and impact of increasing temperatures Key opportunities to increase awareness and engage volunteers in projects along the River Marden include o Increasing and improving river routes will improve habitat and connectivity for a wide range of animals and plants o River banks have a higher water content and can buffer and provide refuges to plant life, fish and reptiles o Allowing river banks to have shaded areas can maintain cooler water temperatures o Organically generated carbon is stored in rivers though biomass, fallen trees, sediment and leaf litter o By recharging groundwater levels flood damage can be reduced o By regenerating floodplains, they can store carbon in their deep alluvial soils The project will be launched by way of “River Marden” day. This will allow local residents an opportunity to discover their river. The day will hope to recruit volunteers within all aspects of the project and link to other groups and organisations in Calne. The day will provide practical activities for all ages and allow opportunities to talk with representatives from BART, Angling Clubs and Wiltshire Wildlife Trust. The River Marden Day will host the following events. An exhibition of old photos of the River in the Heritage Centre, curated by Sue Boddington. This exhibition will last for two weeks. An exhibition of ten contemporary pictures of the Marden through the seasons, in the Corn Exchange in the Town Hall. Again in the Corn Exchange it is intended to to invite river friendly groups like Wessex Water, CARP, BART and the Environmental Agency to show case some of their on going work There will also be Primary School children’s pictures of what they think the River Marden Goddess looks like. In Castlefields Park, the River Warriors and BART will lead river activities for children. Millie a Tourism Student on work placement from Wiltshire College, is organising a trail through Castlefields Park which will teach small children about the wild life which they can expect to discover on the banks of the River Marden. Nick Adams, a local ornithologist, will lead a walk down the Marden to Black Dog. There is also a possibility of a bat walk as well. Genevieve Sioka will lead a children’s painting group on the Wharf. The River will be blessed by the Rev Bob Kenway and Lisa Cossey Fulbright, a shamanic practitioner from Stroud. Invitations will be made to the Japanese kodo drummers from their organic farm base in Yatesbury. There is a powerful tradition in Japan to both respect and bless prominent features of their landscape, like rivers and trees. There is an official plaque illustrating the Abberd Brook at Doctor’s Pond, but nothing to illustrate the River Marden. A River Marden plaque is to be placed next to the Abberd Brook one at Doctor’s Pond using signature art work, The new Town Mayor will give a speech. Every primary school child in Calne will be given a postcard of the River Marden with the signature art work. A presentation will be given at each primary school, leading up to the River Marden day The day is also about celebration and will offer music, a plastic free picnic, competitions, music and arts. Social media accounts will be setup to promote the project along with a partnership with the Calne Heritage Centre to understand the history of the uses of the River Marden through the ages. Links will be made with local schools through the production of learning resources and an App will be launched to allow people to spot wildlife or report litter, pollution or other incidents. The project will be supported by BART who have been active within the Calne area on the River Marden for some time, working closely with Castlefields Canal & River Park Association. (CARP), River Warriors and Calne Clean Up Crew. The intention is that the “River Marden” Day will generate a legacy of volunteer support and spark interest and awareness of benefits that a healthy River Marden have for Calne. 4. Financial Implications It is requested that a sum of up to £4,000 be allocated to the project. A provisional initial costing is as follows. Ceremonial plaque that shows the signature CTC art work £1,700 to be placed at Doctor’s Pond next to the Friends of Abberd Brook plaque Postcards of the same design to be given out to every £ 150 primary school child in Calne Ten pictures of the River Marden on A0 foam board £ 650 Material for art group £ 150 Fees and expenses for the River blessing ceremony £ 300 Materials for the River Warrior’s work in Castlefields £ 100 Millie’s Trail and prizes £ 150 The cost of using the Corn Exchange in the Town Hall £ 210 Use of town council resources including Castlefields Park, £ Included three pop up gazebo’s tables and chairs Use of town council printer and laminator for posters and £ Included other publicity Use of Officer time to create Event Plan / Publicity £ Included Use of Student Placement time £ Included Public Liability within existing Town Council policy £ Included Additional costs to be confirmed include display stands. 5. Community and Environmental Implications The implications to the health of the river, community and environment awareness would be hugely beneficial to the town. The Town Council approved its refreshed Strategic Plan in September 2019. 6. Biodiversity Implications Calne Town Council has a duty to promote the best sustainable environment and protect it for us and future generations. A Climate and Environmental Pledge was made in June 2019. 7. Crime and Disorder Implications There are no perceived crime & disorder implications. 8. Risk Assessment A full and thorough risk assessment will be carried out as part of the start-up of the project and full risk assessment and event plan would be written for the “River Marden Day” event The event would be covered by the Town Council’s public liability insurance with each partner being responsible for completing risk assessments and having appropriate public liability insurance. There would be no amplified music unless a licence has been granted by Wiltshire Council. 9. Recommendations Members are asked to consider the contents of this report and RESOLVE to support the initiative and to request funding from the Special Project Fund or allocate funding from the Amenities Climate Change budget of up to £4,000 for the River Marden Day launch and give permission for the event to take place on Calne Town Council land, allow use of Town Council resources identified , agree to setup a Task Group with two Councillors and external group representatives and to delegate to Director of Council Services to progress.

  • Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages
    Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages Wiltshire is blessed with a fantastic variety of historic market towns and stunning picturesque villages, each one with something to offer. Here are a sample of Wiltshire’s beautiful market towns and villages. Amesbury Nestling within a loop of the River Avon alongside the A303, just 1½ miles from Stonehenge, historic Amesbury is a destination not to be missed. With recent evidence of a large settlement from 8820BC and a breath-taking Mesolithic collection, Amesbury History Centre will amaze visitors with its story of the town where history began. Bradford on Avon The unspoilt market town of Bradford on Avon offers a mix of delightful shops, restaurants, hotels and bed and breakfasts lining the narrow streets, not to mention a weekly market on Thursdays (8am-4pm). Still a natural focus at the centre of the town, the ancient bridge retains two of its 13th century arches and offers a fabulous view of the hillside above the town - dotted with the old weavers' cottages – and the river bank flanked by 19th century former cloth mills. Calne Calne evolved during the 18th and 19th centuries with the wool industry. Blending the old with the new, much of the original Calne is located along the River Marden where some of the historic buildings still remain. There is also the recently restored Castlefields Park with nature trails and cycle path easily accessible from the town centre. Castle Combe Set within the stunning Wiltshire Cotswolds, Castle Combe is a classically quaint English village. Often referred to as the ‘prettiest village in England’, it has even been featured regularly on the big screen – most recently in Hollywood blockbuster ‘The Wolfman’ and Stephen Spielberg’s ‘War Horse’.

  • Bremhill Draft (April 2021).Pdf
    [Draft text by Dr Louise Ryland-Epton, completed April 2021 apart from the first section and minor checking to be undertaken when restrictions are lifted] BREMHILL LANDSCAPE, SETTLEMENT AND BUILDINGS [not yet completed] LANDOWNERSHIP Before the Reformation the manors of Bremhill, Foxham and Spirthill were in possession of the monks of Malmesbury abbey. The adjacent manor of Stanley belonged to the Cistercian order of Stanley abbey. At the dissolution of the monasteries, these estates were acquired by Sir Edward Bayntun. From the 16th to the 20th century, they were primarily held by non- resident lords. In the 20th century, these estates were sold off as separate farms and small holdings. Bremhill Manor King Athelstan gifted an estate at Bremhill to Malmesbury abbey c.935.1 However, the authenticity of the charter has been questioned.2 A confirmation of the abbey’s land and privileges by Edward in 1065 is also disputed.3 In 1086 the manor of Bremhill was held by the monks of Malmesbury abbey. It paid geld for 38 hides.4 The estate was surrendered to the crown in 1539 and acquired by Sir Edward Bayntun of Bromham (will pr. 1545), vice- chamberlain to five wives of Henry VIII, the following year.5 Sir Edward Bayntun was succeeded by his son, Andrew (d.1564).6 Andrew briefly lost control of his estates, after which financial difficulties led him to entail them to his brother, Edward (d.1593). However, the financial mismanagement continued, and on Andrew’s death in 1564, his brother was involved in a court action to secure the inheritance.

  • Favourite Walks Circular 6 Mile Walk, Mainly Through Bowood Estate This
    Favourite walks Circular 6 mile walk, mainly through Bowood Estate This walk just about allows you to stay within the boundaries of Calne Without but stretches your legs and includes some lovely countryside, especially on the path through Bowood. It is just over 6 miles (nearly 7 if you start from the Lansdowne Arms. 1a Start at the Black Dog Inn/Gurkha Baynjan Restaurant on the A4 (now a fine Nepalese restaurant but still with a public bar), where there is ample car parking and an opportunity for a pre-walk coffee or a post-walk pint, or, for locals, start from your own home. 1b It is also possible, and perhaps more appropriate given the amount of Lansdowne land covered, to start from the Lansdowne Arms in Derry Hill but that does make the walk three- quarters of a mile longer. If starting from the Lansdowne Arms, head east down Church St until, just after Christ Church, you head down Old Road on your right and follow that until reaching the Black Dog Inn/Gurkha Baynjan Restaurant and then follow the instructions from 2. 2 Head east downhill towards Calne on the footpath alongside the A4 for just over half a mile/ 1km. This is the unpleasant part of the walk as the lorries and cars rush past but it is downhill and doesn’t last too long. This is Black Dog Hill, which glories in numerous explanations for its name; I prefer the tale that it was named after a frighteningly large black dog that helped herd (or, on one version, terrorised) the pigs brought from Ireland which overnighted by the River Marden before continuing their journey to London, or were deemed too weak to complete the journey and were thus slaughtered and supplied to the bacon and pie workers of Calne.

  • Survey Report St Mary the Virgin, Calstone Wellington
    Survey Report St Mary the Virgin, Calstone Wellington January 2020 Introduction Today the church of St Mary the Virgin today lies in isolation at the base of the Cherhill downs south of the main A4 road between Calne and Cherhill, Wiltshire SU027681, Lat/long 51.412520,-1.962587. The church was rebuilt in the mid 15th Century on the site of an earlier church. The porch timbers come from a later date. The density of graffiti within the church porch is unsurpassed in the county and reveals much about how symbolism was important throughout the post-medieval period. This goes beyond simply making your mark, the amount and variety of graffiti here suggests toleration & encouragement. Within this report we include a photographic survey of the graffiti, offer some interpretation and the methodology used to capture the essence of the symbology. Wiltshire Medieval Graffiti Survey This project was set up in 2014 in order to record historical graffiti and re-use of stone throughout the county of Wiltshire. We continue to support and communicate with similar projects through the UK and Europe, allowing for the development of common recording techniques and a shared terminology for classification. Research Aims & Objectives (i) To systematically record historical graffiti, inscriptions, re-uses of stone using non-invasive methods. (ii) To present findings in a format that is comprehensive and offers a typology that may include; apotropaic symbolism, folk art, names and dates and Christian symbolism. (iii) To increase knowledge and understanding of a building from a social perspective. How folk made their mark and why.
