  • Advice from Buckinghamshire County Council to Aylesbury Vale District Council Concerning Changes to Housing Allocations
    Advice from Buckinghamshire County Council to Aylesbury Vale District Council concerning changes to housing allocations Summary Following the VALP Examination in Public, AVDC and BCC commissioned additional transport modelling reports to further examine points raised during the EiP and in the Inspector’s Interim Conclusions which were: - BUC051 had been omitted from the Countywide modelling Phase 3 work - Concerns about the impact on Buckingham Town Centre of BUC051, and whether without mitigation BUC051 could be released on a phased basis - The need to identify additional housing sites This Advice Note sets out Buckinghamshire County Council’s view concerning the above issues taking into account the transport modelling work, previous planning applications and their transport assessments as well as our local knowledge of the transport network. Buckingham In relation to Buckingham, our view is that the detailed town centre modelling shows that BUC051 would have an unacceptable impact on the town centre, even if the development was phased. The only mitigation to congestion in the town centre that we have been able to identify is the Western Relief Road, as set out in the Buckingham Transport Strategy. However, it has been acknowledged that the scale of the proposed BUC051 allocation would be insufficient to provide funding for this mitigation measure. One option would be to increase the size of the allocation in order that the development was able to deliver the relief road. However, this would lead to a much larger allocation at Buckingham resulting in further modelling work being required to assess the potential impact on the A421. This suggestion does not take into account any site constraints such as flood risk.

  • 1 Buckinghamshire; a Military History by Ian F. W. Beckett
    Buckinghamshire; A Military History by Ian F. W. Beckett 1 Chapter One: Origins to 1603 Although it is generally accepted that a truly national system of defence originated in England with the first militia statutes of 1558, there are continuities with earlier defence arrangements. One Edwardian historian claimed that the origins of the militia lay in the forces gathered by Cassivelaunus to oppose Caesar’s second landing in Britain in 54 BC. 1 This stretches credulity but military obligations or, more correctly, common burdens imposed on able bodied freemen do date from the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of the seventh and eight centuries. The supposedly resulting fyrd - simply the old English word for army - was not a genuine ‘nation in arms’ in the way suggested by Victorian historians but much more of a selective force of nobles and followers serving on a rotating basis. 2 The celebrated Burghal Hidage dating from the reign of Edward the Elder sometime after 914 AD but generally believed to reflect arrangements put in place by Alfred the Great does suggest significant ability to raise manpower at least among the West Saxons for the garrisoning of 30 fortified burghs on the basis of men levied from the acreage apportioned to each burgh. 3 In theory, it is possible that one in every four of all able-bodied men were liable for such garrison service. 4 Equally, while most surviving documentation dates only from 1 G. J. Hay, An Epitomised History of the Militia: The Military Lifebuoy, 54 BC to AD 1905 (London: United Services Gazette, 1905), 10.

It will be valid until 2033. A Neighbourhood Plan is only concerned with land use and development, not community facilities directly, although it can be used to propose detailed actions and use of S106 agreements by directing funding as suggested during the evidence gathering. This Plan is not intended to simply restrict or prevent development occurring in the Parish, but will focus the local Planning Authority’s attention on the wishes of us, the residents, in the development of Wendover. It will serve as an aide to help developers focus on the requisites for successful and appropriate development, sympathetic to our Parish, the history and setting within the Green Belt and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

  • High Wycombe
    Public Health Community Board Profile 2020 – High Wycombe Why are communities important for our health? The community we live in is one of the most important factors for our health. We thrive in communities with strong social ties, a feeling of togetherness and a sense of belonging. Our local social, economic and physical environment can affect our health directly, the health behaviours we adopt such as being physically active, and sometimes whether we access health and care services. The local environment we live in is vitally important throughout the whole of our life course, from before we are born right up until the end of our lives. The indicators included in this Community Board Profile are all important markers of the health and wellbeing of your community, and highlight areas where things are going well but also importantly where improvements can be made. Strong communities will be a key driver for recovery from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Please note that this profile is a high level overview of health and wellbeing indicators from existing data. Communities will have more intelligence on local issues and assets which can be incorporated into the full picture of local needs and how they can best be met. The people in your community It is important to understand who lives in your community to understand their health and wellbeing. Factors such as age, ethnicity and level of deprivation influence our physical and mental health. Understanding these factors may help decide which interventions may be needed to improve the overall health and wellbeing of the community.

  • The Desecrated Churches of Buckinghamshire
    THE DESECRATED CHURCHES OF BUCKINGHAMSHIRE. DEANERY OF BUCKINGHAM (CONTINUED FROM FAGE 69.) BUCKINGHAM. — St. John's Chapel. — Addenda. —This Chapel, having been fitted up with seats from the old Church, was used for Divine Service from A.D. 1770 to A.D. 1780, during the erection of the present Parish Church, which was consecrated in the latter year. In the year 1781 it became used for a Sunday School, which is supposed to have been the second Sunday School established in England. This school, though not at first in connection with the Church, was afterwards merged in the National Schools which were established A.D. 1819. 2.—At BORETON, a hamlet in the parish of Buckingham, there was a house with a large arched doorway standing in Willis's time, which was said to have been a Chapel. This tradition was strongly supported, if not confirmed, by the fact that the ground around the house was found to contain the remains of human bodies. 3.—GAWCOT, another hamlet of Buckingham, formerly possessed a Chapel dedicated to St. Catherine, the site of which is commemorated by a field, named Chapel Close, and the lane leading to it bearing the name of Chapel Lane. No remains of the Chapel existed in Browne Willis's time; and this hamlet, more than a mile from the Parish Church, and containing a population of six or seven hundred, was left destitute of a house of prayer by the destruction of the Chapel, for probably some centuries. In 1806, a new Chapel was built and endowed by Mr.
