I also note that the LGBC is also proposing that homes in Hagley,namely South Rd,Western Rd,Newfield Rd( above numbers 24) and the Closes off will remain in the Furlong Ward of Clent. I strongly believe that that the homes listed immediately above in my second paragraph should also be moved into the Hagley Wards so that ALL homes with Hagley addresses are in Hagley Wards.

Birmingham Moor Street As soon as we clear the platform we enter the 635 yard long Snow Hill Tunnel and climb at 1 in 45. While still in the tunnel, a side tunnel joined from our left hand side. This tunnel originated in the basement of the Bank of England building at the junction of Temple Row and St Philip’s Place, and was used by bullion trains that reversed from platform 1 at Snow Hill to the bank. Immediately after leaving the gloom of the tunnel, we enter the gloom of BIRMINGHAM SNOW HILL, opened on 5 October 1987 to replace the much grander GWR station that closed on 6 March 1972. It was unfortunate that, when the new station was built, it was decided to build a three storey car park on top of it and this has served to make the station dark and uninviting.

  • Stourbridge Canal That I Completed with the Royal Geographical Society
    Gigmill Primary School 2021 1) How do you expect canals to evolve in the future? I see a bright future for them for two reasons in particular. First they are now an integral part of our community infrastructure. By that I mean canals are now used for a wide range of purposes other than just boats or fishing. Many towpaths now carry fibre-optic cables, some canals are Sites of Special Scientific Interest, some are used for hydroelectric power generation (I have actually been inside the one at Dudbridge built by Cotswolds Canals Trust); the list is a long one and is a far cry from when they were just used principally for transport. Second, they are part of a wider, more general development of community health and well-being. This is part of Government initiatives for ‘well-ness’ and canals provide a haven for relaxation, exercise and stress relief. Doctors are now even prescribing something like a walk along a peaceful canal to help counter depression and anxiety, rather than the use of medication. The use of waterways has changed beyond imagination within just a few years; remember it was not so very long ago that there were calls for them to all be filled in because they were no longer of use. Fortunately the restoration movement prevented this happening and, more recently, the transfer of control from the old British Waterways to the new Canal & River Trust in 2012. Learn more about CRT here: https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/about-us 2) What made the Industrial Revolution so revolutionary? This is a broad question but essentially it was a period when our country turned on a huge scale – and in quick time – from a rural economy to an industrial one.

  • The 'Agenoria' and the Shutt End Railway David Fort
    The ‘Agenoria’ and the Shutt End Railway David Fort The need for the Shutt End Railway In the 1820s, the coal pits of the Pensnett area on the Western edge of the Black Country depended for their future growth upon their ability to transport coal to the expanding industrial sites in Britain. The key to their success in this respect was to get the coal to the Staffordshire & Worcestershire (Staffs & Worcs) Canal, which was one of the main North-South transport arteries of the time. This canal, which had been opened in 1772, lay some 3 miles to the West of Pensnett, although the slightly later (1779) Stourbridge Canal, which connected with the Staffs & Worcs at Stourton, passed within one mile of the Pensnett coal field on its way to Dudley. Logic would seem to suggest that a spur from the Stourbridge Canal to Pensnett would solve any transport problems (one was in fact built in 1840), but travel along the Stourbridge Canal would still have been very slow due to the number of locks in the area. The local mine owners, in an attempt to overcome these problems, conceived the idea of building a railway to run directly from the coal area to the Staffs & Worcs canal. Railways, or tramways, were by no means a new idea in the area (indeed the first ever use of the term ‘railway’ is reputed i to have been in the Pensnett area in 1681); although narrow gauge lines employing horse traction were the order of the day. Construction On 17 January 1827 an agreement was signed between the 4 th Viscount Dudley & Ward, Lord of the Manor; landowner and mine operator, and James Foster Esq., to build what was to be variously called the Shutt End; Shut End, or Kingswinford Railway.

  • Waterways & Development Plans
    WATERWAYS & DEVELOPMENT PLANS Foreword Our inland waterways are a unique asset. They form part of our environmental and cultural inheritance and contribute to the local distinctiveness of the areas through which they pass. They act as a catalyst for urban and rural regeneration, stimulate leisure, recreation and tourism, and can contribute to an integrated transport system. In “Waterways for Tomorrow” the Government said that it would support the development of waterways through the planning system. IWAAC’s “Planning a Future for the Inland Waterways: A Good Practice Guide” (2001), offers much useful advice but also a process for integrating inland waterways into the development plan system. By establishing a clear vision for waterways, adopting a corridor wide approach to their planning and development and fully integrating them with other policy objectives, real benefits can be achieved for the local communities who live nearby.
