  • Newbury Closed Championships Report
    NEWBURY CLOSED CHAMPIONSHIPS REPORT The biggest and best entry for several years from youngsters across West Berkshire took part in the Newbury Junior Table Tennis Championships held at Kennet Leisure Centre this weekend. The blue ribbon event the under 17 singles was won by top seed Sam Ricks from Pamber Heath who defeated Thatcham's Teifon Chamberlain the defending champion in the final. The standard of play was very high with both boys attacking well but Sam's greater consistancy saw him clinch the title in three straight games. The girls singles was won by Kennet School's Shannon Hillier who used her forehand topspin to great effect to beat Juno Randall from Tutts Clump. The Under 15 singles event was a family affair as Hermitage's Joseph Cornmell beat his younger brother Robert in the final. Robert had reached the final after squeezing past Aldermaston's Keiron Warre in five games in the semi. Robert Cornmell made up for this in the Under 13 singles as he retained the cup with Newbury's Tom Lewis the runner up. In the Under 11's Hungerford's Tom Kelly who practices at Inkpen Table Tennis Club emerged as the victor with Thatcham's Ben Haines the runner up. The doubles events were closely contested and there was an upset in the final of the junior doubles when Basingstoke's Michael Jones combined with Keiron Warre to defeat the favourites Sam Ricks and Sam Goodyer in five games after being 2 - 1 down. Warre also picked up the Langley Cup awarded by the tournament organiser for his positive attitude during the day.

    CALCOT • BERKSHIRE A PRESTIGE, GATED COMMUNITY COMPRISING 27 LUXURY HOMES Image THE RUSTIC SOLUTION TO MODERN LIVING 01 A PRESTIGE, GATED COMMUNITY WITH HISTORIC CHARACTER Beansheaf Grange is an exclusive Grade II listed, gated development comprising 27 new homes ranging from 1 bed apartments to 3 bed houses. Situated in Calcot, Berkshire, this unique development is situated close to the River Kennet and moments away from local amenities, all while being within easy reach of the vibrant cosmopolitan centre of Reading and all it has to offer. The development has been designed to utilise the vast surrounding open space. The majority of the residential units feature sizeable front and rear gardens. This reflects the peaceful rural atmosphere of the area and is further enhanced by the use of natural and traditional materials in their construction to blend seamlessly with the historic character, all combined using the latest building techniques. INTRODUCTION Luxurious interiors, vaulted ceilings, state of the art kitchens with quality appliances, all contribute to a modern contemporary lifestyle. Benefiting from private gardens, allocated parking, endless landscaping and moments from Theale Train Station and the M4, this desirable community is the dream location for commuters, downsizers, first time buyers and young families alike.

    Full Council 25th January 2021 Agenda Item No.: 17iii REGULATION 18 CONSULTATION ON THE EMERGING DRAFT OF THE WEST BERKSHIRE LOCAL PLAN REVIEW TO 2037 Initial draft response to the consultation, prepared by Councillor Lister, Leader of the Council. This document is a work in progress. We note that the Sustainability Assessment is an interim document and separate comments are sought. Our feedback to the Sustainability Assessment is included in our response to the Local Plan, policy SP 17, as advised by West Berkshire Officers. Section 1.4 • "contribute to the achievement of sustainable development … such that the right development happens in the right place at the right time benefiting communities and the economy. We acknowledge the needs for sustainable development and the importance of selecting the right place, at the right time. There are different pressures on communities - ensuring 'viable villages' in rural areas is as important as respecting the limits to growth in more urbanised areas that may be constrained by geography or through limits on infrastructure. Where infrastructure is constraining growth in one area then it is necessary to consider growth in other areas. Section 1.12 • "the Local Plan will replace in one document the three documents listed above" We welcome the merger of the 3 documents as this should enable West Berkshire Council to articulate a clear strategic vision for the district. This must align with sustainable growth that takes into account the challenge of moving towards a net-zero carbon. We are unclear on the status of the Sustainability Appraisal, in which an interim version has been published.
