    Groundwater Situation Report Wessex (Dorset & South Wiltshire) Update 12th September 2017 Current situation Current forecast risk of groundwater flooding There are currently no groundwater flood alerts for Salisbury Plain, Cranborne Chase and the West of Dorset. The latest summary of the water situation in the South West, giving details of the rainfall, groundwater levels and river flows, can found on the GOV.UK website. The link to these pages is below: August finished much drier than it started. Overall for the month the long term average (LTA) for August was ‘normal’ at 95% LTA, 62 mm. The rivers responded well to the rainfall and most flows reflect the geographical distribution of the rainfall, drier in the north and west and wetter in the south and east. Most rivers are now ‘normal’ for the time of year though South Newton on the groundwater dominated Chalk is ‘below normal’ for the time of year. The groundwater sites show a mixed response with some groundwater sites responding to the wetter than average summer, 134% LTA, whilst others on the Chalk and Greater Oolite are still ‘notably low. Several boreholes have received significant recharge this month and were still increasing at month end others while still receding are doing so at a lower rate. Sites on the Greater Oolite and Chalk are ‘notably low’ for the time of year. Many others are ‘normal’ with the exception of Kingston Russell Road, situated in the West Dorset catchment, which was ‘notably high’. In the West of Dorset, the level at the Kingston Russell borehole, on 12/09/2017, was 105.760 metres above sea level (mAOD).

    5/20/2011 Great Western Railway ships - Wikipedi… Great Western Railway ships From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Great Western Railway’s ships operated in Great Western Railway connection with the company's trains to provide services to (shipping services) Ireland, the Channel Islands and France.[1] Powers were granted by Act of Parliament for the Great Western Railway (GWR) to operate ships in 1871. The following year the company took over the ships operated by Ford and Jackson on the route between Wales and Ireland. Services were operated between Weymouth, the Channel Islands and France on the former Weymouth and Channel Islands Steam Packet Company routes. Smaller GWR vessels were also used as tenders at Plymouth and on ferry routes on the River Severn and River Dart. The railway also operated tugs and other craft at their docks in Wales and South West England.

He was responsible for designing three large ships, the SS Great Western (1837), SS Great Britain (1843; now preserved at Bristol), and SS Great Eastern (1858).
  • Swindon Bus Station

    Swindon Bus Station

    What is this document? We (primarily Lee) have looked at what the bus network might look like under option 24/7 in a pilot area, at the request of Philip Whitehead (meetings March and April 2016) The area selected was from (in the north) the Bath – Corsham – Chippenham – Calne – Royal Wootton Bassett corridor through to the Bath – Bradford-on-Avon – Trowbridge – Westbury – Warminster corridor to the West, covering all of West Wilts, services within that area out to Devizes. There is always considerable overlap across boundaries with public transport services, so you'll find significant services off the edge listed here, many of which are adjustments of ongoing supported services to continue to provide a logical, useful service. The suggestions here reduce the number of vehicle diagrams in the area from 59 to 52 – a saving of around 14%. The number of drivers required would be reduced somewhat less due to extension of some ENCTS time only services to cover journeys to and from work and in the evening and on Sundays and perhaps where appropriate a night bus. In general, very very few places / streets have lost their services, whilst areas such as the Pewsham Estate in Chippenham and Pickwick Road in Corsham see regular buses return, having been withdrawn under the current system. A number of new journey opportunities are provided too (some significant, some making use of much better bus / train connectivity) but there are cases where a change of vehicle will now be needed in place of a through service. Currently commercial services which thrive as “turn up and go” operations remain hardly changed – we are not proposing messing with what works – keeping the good.

    THE CHURCH OF ST. THOMAS à BECKET, TILSHEAD REPORT FOR YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2014 Background The parishes of Chitterne, Orcheston, Shrewton and Tilshead Photograph by Betty Druce were merged on 1st January 2014 to form the Salisbury Plain Benefice, a single ecclesiastical parish with one Parochial Church Council (PCC). However the four constituent villages each retained a local church committee to attend to matters of local concern. These are subcommittees of the PCC. Membership During the year the following served as members of both the Tilshead Church Committee and the Benefice PCC:. Rector: The Reverend Eleanor Rance Churchwardens: Libby Anson (Treasurer from April 2014) Ewart Grant (Secretary from June 2014) Representative on the Deanery Synod: Gillian Goldsmith Elected members: Claire Cooper Vix Mackay In addition Simon Bedford and Frank Newell attended the first meeting of the year, and Frank Newell remained Treasurer until he moved from the village in April. Robert Pryor, Vice Chairman of the PCC, was in attendance at subsequent meetings. George Murray succeeded Frank Newell as Electoral Roll Officer, but was not a member of the Church Committee. Church attendance At 31st December 2014 there were 44 people on the Electoral Roll, eight of whom were not resident in the Benefice. Three were residents of Shrewton, and the remaining 33 lived in Tilshead. No names were added or deleted during the year. The pattern of three services a month in Tilshead continued, with a rotating Benefice service on the second Sunday. The average attendance at Sunday services was 17. As always this average conceals wide swings.
