The core of this SPD is a series of character area assessments for the component areas of Barnes. These character areas have been identified through the similarity of key features that are deemed to define their individual local character. The assessments establish dominant features and materials as well as an overall description of the street pattern and housing types.

  • Beverley Brook Partnership
    BEVERLEY BROOK PARTNERSHIP Working together since 2013, the Beverley Brook Catchment Partnership aims to improve, restore and protect the health of the Beverley Brook and its catchment for both local wildlife and local communities. THE RIVER Starting in Worcester Park, the Beverley Brook travels north passing through key green spaces such as Richmond Park and Wimbledon Common and joining the Thames in Barnes. “Our vision is for the Beverley Brook to be a clean river, rich in biodiversity, that is a resource for an engaged local community” Explore this Catchment Plan to find out more about the Beverley Brook: its history, the issues it faces and what the Partnership is doing to restore and protect the Beverley Brook. THE BEVERLEY BROOK “Beverley Brook comes from Beaver’s Ley, which means place where Beavers rest” Was the Brook named after beavers which once inhabited the river? KEY INFORMATION LAND COVER Length 14.3km Tributaries Pyl Brook and East Pyl Catchment Area 64 km2 Type Heavily Modified Population 880,000 The Beverley Brook rises in Worcester Park and travels 14 km to Richmond where it joins the River Thames at Barn Elms. The Brook passes through Richmond Park, Wimbledon Common and the London Wetland Centre, all of which are Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and key green spaces in south London. Historically, the Beverley Brook rose from minor springs along the edge of the North Downs, but with increases in ground-water Based upon LCM2015 © NERC (CEH) 2017 abstraction, these springs no longer exist Improved and now the Brook is entirely Woodland grassland disconnected from the Freshwater chalk aquifer.

  • Understanding South London's Hedgehog Populations with London
    Understanding South London’s hedgehog populations with London Hogwatch 2020 Kate Scott-Gatty Chris Carbone Key findings • The outlook for South London’s hedgehog populations looks better than originally thought from previous London HogWatch surveys. • The known populations in Barnes Common and Barnes Wetlands seem to be connected and can disperse into surrounding areas which is encouraging for the long term survival of this population. • Barnes Common/Putney Lower had a much lower hedgehog trap rate than in previous years surveys which is potentially worrying as it could indicate a population decline. • Badgers are affecting hedgehog distribution in SW London and gardens are acting as important refuges for hedgehogs in this area. • Twickenham could be a potential hotspot for hedgehogs in SW London as private garden surveys showed a wide distribution in this area. • Beddington park had a lower hedgehog trap rate than the surrounding gardens possibly highlighting a connectivity issue as the park is surrounded by busy roads. This area also had a relatively low trap rate indicating this may be a small and vulnerable population in need of targeted conservation efforts. • Gardens play an important role as habitat for South London’s hedgehogs. Both small and large green spaces need to be surveyed in the future to gain an accurate picture of hedgehog distribution and abundance. Introduction Hedgehogs have recently been classified as vulnerable to extinction in the UK as their numbers are estimated to have declined by 46% in the last 13 years1. The causes of this decline are complicated, as many factors are likely to be interacting to produce this effect.

    THE EAST INDIA CLUB SOME ACCOUNT OF THOSE MEMBERS OF THE CLUB & STAFF WHO LOST THEIR LIVES IN WORLD WAR ONE 1914-1919 & WORLD WAR TWO 1939-1945 THE NAMES LISTED ON THE CLUB MEMORIALS IN THE HALL DEDICATION The independent ambition of both Chairman Iain Wolsey and member David Keating to research the members and staff honoured on the Club’s memorials has resulted in this book of Remembrance. Mr Keating’s immense capacity for the necessary research along with the Chairman’s endorsement and encouragement for the project was realised through the generosity of member Nicholas and Lynne Gould. The book was received in to the Club on the occasion of a commemorative service at St James’s Church, Piccadilly in September 2014 to mark the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War. Second World War members were researched and added in 2016 along with the appendices, which highlights some of the episodes and influences that involved our members in both conflicts. In October 2016, along with over 190 other organisations representing clubs, livery companies and the military, the club contributed a flagstone of our crest to the gardens of remembrance at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire. First published in 2014 by the East India Club. No part of this book may be reprinted or reproduced or utilised in any form or by any electronic, mechanical or other means, now known or hereafter invented, including photocopying and recording, or in any information storage or retrieval system, without permission in writing, from the East India Club.
