But then July there was an argument between some of the contestants which generated on 15th Pop in Place Bere Regis Open Gardens event 10.00 - 5.00 the part of one particular ‘celebrity’ a shameful exhibition of degrading behaviour and disgusting language.

  • Examine the Value of Place-Names As Evidence for the History, Landscape And, Especially, Languages of South East Dorset
    Examine the Value of Place-Names as Evidence for the History, Landscape and, Especially, Languages of South East Dorset. Gemma Ellis Overview This paper analyses 40 place-names in South East Dorset, stretching from the modern boundary of Hampshire, along the Purbeck coast, to just east of Weymouth (Fig. 1). Continuing the trend of place-names throughout England, most names have Old English (OE) origins, as the Anglo-Saxons renamed places as they immigrated to land which was largely swamp or forest.1 However, there are three names of Brittonic origin. Welsh influence is expected due to the relatively close proximity to Wales. Figure 2 shows the large amount of surviving Celtic names in Dorset. For a similar reason I have found no direct Old Norse linguistic influence because Dorset was securely in the Anglo-Saxon Kingdom of Wessex when Danelaw was enacted in the 9th century to separate Viking invaders. Despite large Roman settlements at Poole, there is little evidence of the Latin language because it was not generally spoken in rural areas.2 Although, Dorchester, to the west of my corpus, retains the chester element because a Roman road went from there to Wimborne Minster and down to Poole Harbour. On the other hand, there are many Old French (OFr) place-name elements which originate from Norman aristocratic family personal names. I will be dividing the place-names by Figure 1 Maps illustrating the position of my corpus. whether they are topographical, habitative or Place-names marked in red are derived from OE, blue personal and within each category will study the have Celtic elements, yellow have Norman family names’ linguistic origins, offering more insight names, green are modern names, and pink have Latin or into the area’s history and language change.

    Roads and Transport Committee – 3rd February 2021 Agenda Item 4) Purbeck Transport Strategy (rev 7) Summary of Parish & Town Council Inputs Introduction The Purbeck Transport Action Group has agreed that there is an urgent need for a Transport Strategy in Purbeck. The area comes under particular pressure in the summer, especially around Studland, Swanage, Langton Matravers, Corfe and Lulworth/Durdle Door and there is a need for coordinated action to alleviate the problems of congestion, with its consequences for public safety and the environment. Such a strategy could be supported by a traffic management plan, covering traffic flows and parking, a cycling/walking plan, drawing on the recently announced government initiative ‘Gear Change: a bold vision for cycling and walking’ and an integrated public transport plan, coordinating bus and rail services and the Sandbanks Ferry. The Strategy should be seen in the context of climate change and the need for clear plans to cope with it at local, district, regional and national levels. It could be used to inform the transport aspects of the DC Climate Emergency Plan. PTAG comprises representatives from Parish and Town Councils, the National Trust and all transport modes (including the Purbeck Community Rail Partnership, bus companies and cycling groups). PTAG has offered to assist in drafting such a strategy for consideration by Dorset Council. Accordingly, Parish and Town Councils have been invited to provide input to the plan, so that their concerns and proposals can be coordinated and to ensure that all views are considered and widespread support is encouraged. A template was provided to facilitate PC and TC inputs and this document is a first attempt at summarising the responses and drawing out the common elements.

Two responses relevant: Spatial Strategy, Rural Functionality Study. SHLAA Q.1 Q1. (a) Having regard to the fact that the issue of whether exceptional circumstances have been demonstrated to justify the alterations to the boundary of the Green Belt as proposed in the Plan to provide for housing development at Lytchett Matravers (Policy H6) and Upton (Policy H7) has been addressed above, are these allocations otherwise soundly based and are the allocations at Moreton Station/Redbridge Pit (Policy H4) and Wool (Policy H5) soundly based? (b) Was the identification process of the allocations at Moreton Station/Redbridge Pit (Policy H4), Wool (Policy H5), Lytchett Matravers (Policy H6) and Upton (Policy H7) robust, what factors were taken into account in the assessment process to determine the sites for allocation and was the assessment robust Answer to question 1.a Soundness 2. The allocations to Lychett Matravers and Upton are sound. 3. The allocation to Wool is sound but should be reduced to about 200 houses and the other 240 houses allocated to Swanage and Wareham 4. The allocation to Moreton Station/Redbridge Pit is very unsound and totally illogical.
