Sprotbrough & Cusworth Parish News Sprotbrough & Cusworth Published by Sprotbrough & Cusworth Parish Council Parish News Please recycle Autumn 2018 Local Mum Celebrates New Crossing Success SPROTBROUGH mum Beverley Vaughan is proof that people power can make a difference after she spearheaded a campaign to make a local accident blackspot safer. Mrs Vaughan, who is registered blind, was finding it increasingly difficult to cross Melton Road at the junction with Spring Lane and Thorpe Lane, without asking for help because of the risk of being hit by speeding vehicles. A few years ago this had been the scene of an accident involving a Ridgewood pupil who was hit by a vehicle after stepping off the school bus. Mrs Vaughan, a former Ridgewood and Don Valley teacher, decided enough was enough and so, with the help of supporters, organised a petition calling for a zebra crossing, which was signed by 750 local residents. She presented the petition to the parish council and her. Campaign won the backing of councillors, who pledged parish Mrs Vaughan, centre, with Councillors Cynthia Ransome & Pat Haith funds towards the construction costs. Armed with her petition, she also lobbied Doncaster Council and successfully secured Deputy Mayor Glyn Jones and colleagues’ financial support for her plans. Sprotbrough & Cusworth Parish Council and Doncaster Council shared the £30,000 cost of creating the pedestrian crossing, with the parish council using some of its Section 106 funds. These are contributions made by developers towards the costs of providing community and social infrastructure. A delighted Mrs Vaughan went with parish council Chair Councillor Pat Haith and Councillor Cynthia Ransome, who represents Doncaster Council’s Sprotbrough Ward, to officially declare the new ‘zebra’ crossing ‘open’. She said: “We had to knock on a lot of doors asking residents to sign the petition but the result has been very worthwhile. I can now cross the road safely and many people have told name how useful it is in enabling them to get to the shops easily and quickly.” Councillor Haith said: “This is a great example of the parish council working with local parishioners to bring a much needed public amenity off the drawing board. We listened to their concerns, gave them our backing and worked with Doncaster Council to make it happen.” Councillor Ransome said she believed Sprotbrough & Cusworth was the first parish council in Doncaster borough to help provide a pedestrian crossing. “It is real partnership working by sharing our financial resources for the benefit of the local community”.

  • Servants' Passage
    SERVANTS’ PASSAGE: Cultural identity in the architecture of service in British and American country houses 1740-1890 2 Volumes Volume 1 of 2 Aimée L Keithan PhD University of York Archaeology March 2020 Abstract Country house domestic service is a ubiquitous phenomenon in eighteenth and nineteenth century Britain and America. Whilst shared architectural and social traditions between the two countries are widely accepted, distinctive cultural identity in servant architecture remains unexplored. This thesis proposes that previously unacknowledged cultural differences between British and American domestic service can be used to rewrite narratives and re-evaluate the significance of servant spaces. It uses the service architecture itself as primary source material, relying on buildings archaeology methodologies to read the physical structures in order to determine phasing. Archival sources are mined for evidence of individuals and household structure, which is then mapped onto the architecture, putting people into their spaces over time. Spatial analysis techniques are employed to reveal a more complex service story, in both British and American houses and within Anglo-American relations. Diverse spatial relationships, building types and circulation channels highlight formerly unrecognised service system variances stemming from unique cultural experiences in areas like race, gender and class. Acknowledging the more nuanced relationship between British and American domestic service restores the cultural identity of country house servants whose lives were not only shaped by, but who themselves helped shape the architecture they inhabited. Additionally, challenging accepted narratives by re-evaluating domestic service stories provides a solid foundation for a more inclusive country house heritage in both nations. This provides new factors on which to value modern use of servant spaces in historic house museums, expanding understanding of their relevance to modern society.

At: 188 Cadeby Road Sprotbrough Doncaster South Yorkshire For: Mr D Perry Third Party 0 Parish: Sprotbrough And Cusworth Reps: Parish Council Ward: Sprotbrough Author of Report Gareth Stent MAIN RECOMMENDATION: GRANT 1.0 Reason for Report 1.1 The application is being presented to committee as it represents a departure from the Unitary Development Plan. Also, an almost identical application was considered by planning committee in 2009 for the adjacent property (No.190), who also sought to include land within its curtilage. 2.0 Proposal and Background 2.1 This application seeks permission to retain use of land as residential curtilage, and to retain a portal framed building at 188 Cadeby Road Sprotbrough. Both properties i.e. No.188 and No.190 Cadeby Road have been the subject of various enforcement enquires/action over the past few years with No.190 regularising land beyond its curtiliage for use as garden back in 2009. Since then, officers have been working with the owners of No.188 to do the same. This resulted in a certificate of lawfulness application being submitted in 2010 under reference 10/01619/CPE, to certify the use of the land as garden. This however, was refused as the evidence within the application was inconclusive. 2.2 Following the refusal, the applicant was advised to submit an application to retain the use of the land and to retain the building.

  • New-Build Housing, Mobility and the Life Course a Study of Housing-Driven Economic Growth Strategy in Doncaster
    New-build housing, mobility and the life course A study of housing-driven economic growth strategy in Doncaster By: Amy Clare Beckett A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Social Sciences Department of Urban Studies and Planning 2018 Supervised by Dr Nicola Dempsey and Professor Ed Ferrari Abstract By implementing housing strategies which focus improving provision for more affluent groups, policymakers may hope to alter the demographic mix of a locality with the aim of stimulating economic growth to compete more effectively in a globalised world. This thesis examines the potential role of high-end new-build housing as part of a ‘bootstraps’ (Eisenschitz and Gough, 1993) local economic growth strategy in the context of ‘austerity urbanism’ (Peck, 2012). To explore these issues, the thesis employs a mixed-method, biographical approach to examine inward and internal migration into new-build homes in Doncaster, a post-industrial metropolitan borough in South Yorkshire. In doing so, the research provides a story of Doncaster, its neighbourhoods and its residents, exploring the ways in which individual, shared and collective narratives combine to influence household needs and preferences, and ultimately mobility outcomes. The empirical findings of this research suggest that targeted high-end new-build housing is insufficient as a policy mechanism to attract the substantial inward migration of middle-to-high income groups in Doncaster. Here, the potential economic benefit associated with a housing-based urban competition strategy appears not to have been met in empirical outcomes. In addition, whilst new-build housing provided a welcome addition to local market for more affluent existing residents and newcomers, findings suggest a policy focus on more affluent groups has the potential to exacerbate local spatial inequalities and threaten social cohesion by creating new opportunities for the segregation of more affluent groups.

There have been a number of major garden restorations that have added to the understanding of the past and delighted visitors. Developments in refining historic landscape characterisation, designing contemporary heritage gardens and regenerating public parks have far-reaching implications This issue of Conservation Bulletin focuses on historic gardens and landscape. The Mori Poll undertaken as part of the consultation for the historic environment review shows that people value places, not just as a series of individual sites and buildings but as part of a familiar and much-loved environment – a landscape. As the Black Environment Network has commented in response to the poll: ‘People need to understand the components of their locality – street names, elements of their home, cultural memory, places of worship, green spaces – they all have stories’. It is the whole place, not any individual feature, which speaks to them of their history and which is why we have called the review Power of Place .
