  • Feedback on Consultation - Preferred Options for Traveller & Travelling Show People Site Allocations
    Feedback on Consultation - Preferred Options for Traveller & Travelling Show people Site Allocations Update following the Zoom consultation for Parish Councils on 20/5/21, regarding preferred options for Traveller & Travelling Showpeople site allocations, which form part of the South Worcestershire Development Plan. A Traveller and Travelling Showpeople Plan is required by law to ensure equal access to services, e.g. education, and to help prevent unauthorised development. The number of sites, pitches and plots allocated is the minimum number to demonstrate that the accommodation needs of the Traveller community are being met, having been assessed against the Gypsy and Traveller Accommodation Assessment October 2019 (GTAA). By 2033, 72 extra pitches and 9 plots need to be found, by creating new sites (close to towns or villages but not in green belt or areas of natural beauty), or by extending/intensifying existing sites. Sustainability and proximity to facilities will be an important factor. N.B. ‘Pitches’ are relevant to Travellers and ‘plots’ are relevant to Travelling Showpeople. The following are currently proposed: - New site at Bretforton Road, Badsey (6 pitches) - Welland Road, Upton-upon-Severn (3 extra pitches) - Knowle Hill, Evesham (5 extra pitches) - Village Street, Aldington (2 extra pitches) This leaves a shortfall, but additional sites may be approved in the future through the normal planning process, where applications will be judged on their suitability and in accordance with planning policies.

  • Lime Kilns in Worcestershire
    Lime Kilns in Worcestershire Nils Wilkes Acknowledgements I first began this project in September 2012 having noticed a number of limekilns annotated on the Ordnance Survey County Series First Edition maps whilst carrying out another project for the Historic Environment Record department (HER). That there had been limekilns right across Worcestershire was not something I was aware of, particularly as the county is not regarded to be a limestone region. When I came to look for books or documents relating specifically to limeburning in Worcestershire, there were none, and this intrigued me. So, in short, this document is the result of my endeavours to gather together both documentary and physical evidence of a long forgotten industry in Worcestershire. In the course of this research I have received the help of many kind people. Firstly I wish to thank staff at the Historic Environmental Record department of the Archive and Archaeological Service for their patience and assistance in helping me develop the Limekiln Database, in particular Emma Hancox, Maggi Noke and Olly Russell. I am extremely grateful to Francesca Llewellyn for her information on Stourport and Astley; Simon Wilkinson for notes on Upton-upon-Severn; Gordon Sawyer for his enthusiasm in locating sites in Strensham; David Viner (Canal and Rivers Trust) in accessing records at Ellesmere Port; Bill Lambert (Worcester and Birmingham Canal Trust) for involving me with the Tardebigge Limekilns Project; Pat Hughes for her knowledge of the lime trade in Worcester and Valerie Goodbury

It was first collected in 1693 and continued to be collected until 1963. Before 1780 Land Tax Assessments are rare but from then until 1832 duplicates of the Land Assessments had to be lodged with the Clerk of the Peace and are to be found in County Quarter Sessions records. In 1798 the tax was fixed at 4 shillings in the pound and this was made as a permanent charge on the land. The landowners were given the choice of paying 15 years of tax in a lump sum and by 1815 one third of landowners had taken this option. Worcestershire Land Tax Returns can give: Rental value of the owner’s property. Names of owners and copyholders. Names of occupiers. Names or description of property or estate. The amounts of tax levied. Those owners exonerated from paying the tax annually.
