Just over 100 years ago, the whole area now occupied by The Beeches, Poplar and Highlands Avenue, Leatherhead Hospital, Woodlands School, and Beech Holt was quite thickly wooded. A Mr. Leach owned it. Gradually, parcels were sold off and finally in about 1935 he made a gift of the current hospital grounds (containing the area now known as Leach Grove Wood) to Leatherhead Urban District Council. The gift was believed to stipulate medical use in perpetuity. The exact size and details of Mr. Leach’s gift became lost to memory until efforts to ensure the remaining part of the wood was protected were made firstly in the 1980s when the then owners, SCC wanted to sell the land for housing, and then repeated in the last three years. Naturally, the current owners, NHS Property Services Ltd were keen to establish complete control over “their” land, whereas the surrounding population had got very used to the freedom and rusticity afforded by this unusual feature and did not want to lose their “rights” over it, accrued by time, so NHS Property Services Ltd. objected to the woods being registered as a village green. This objection resulted in a public enquiry being held in Kingston and in the Leatherhead theatre where many of residents living near the woods gave evidence about how they used the wood. SCC decided to reject the inspector’s decision that one criterion had not been met, and so awarded village green status to the wood. This ensured the woods remained an open space for anyone who wished to play, walk or generally relax in it. However, NHS Property Services Ltd did not agree and they instigated a full Judicial Review in the High Court last month. As I write now, I do not know what the result will be. What I would like to highlight to our members is the admirable effort and dogged determination shown by that small band of people, The Friends of Leach Grove Wood, who attended the various hearings (which lasted two to three days), who travelled both to Kingston and to London at their own expense in order to spend hours listening to the rather technical arguments adduced by the lawyers and who also took the trouble to organize money-raising events because barristers do not (sadly) live on fresh air alone. The Leatherhead Residents’ Association exists to help maintain the town as a small but active Surrey Hills community where we can all help in the solving of other people’s problems. Caroline Brown. BUSES (All change please!) A new Bus Service will be introduced from 3 September 2016 21 – From Epsom to Crawley via Leatherhead & Dorking; Monday to Saturday The route is Kiln Lane, Sainsbury’s – Epsom – Ashtead – Leatherhead – Headley – Boxhill – Betchworth Station – A25 – Dorking – South Holmwood – Beare Green – Newdigate – Charlwood – Ifield – Crawley • In general, it will run every two hours from Epsom to Crawley via Dorking. • Replaces current services 26 and 516. • Same route as 516 from Epsom to Boxhill and Dorking. • One journey each way to/from Dorking Mondays to Fridays will also serve Strood Green and Brockham to replace service 29. 2 Norbury Park Demonstration on Conservation Progress Ranger, Andrea Neal, has proven to be quite efficient in the care, maintenance and supervision of volunteers to Norbury Park. The Summer visit to the site by the Norbury Park Liaison Group was interesting and informative. WewereshownseverallocationsincludingPhoenixFields. Interestingly, this Summer a schedule of limited rental ofsomeofthegrasslandinPhoenixFieldswillbegin. Moneyreceived for the hire will be used to provide revenue for the management of the park. Only a small part of the field can be hired for activities, which include a meet for The Little Welly (an organisation designed to get children aged 4-10 out into the countryside) and a wedding later in the summer. The limits to the use will protect the hay that is grown there and the ground-nesting skylarks (nationally their numbers have halved since 1980). (Left) Andrea Neal points out the "living fence" that has been created by pleaching (cutting 3 fourths of the way through)andbendingandentwiningthelineof16yearold trees (mainly hawthorns) planted specifically for this purpose. They are then fixed into place with stakes and binders made from hazel limbs cut elsewhere in the park. The work was done by the Surrey Hedgelaying Group, trained and skilled volunteers, who do this traditional form of management for the love of it. Andrea holds an example of Ash die back (below) No one knows how Norbury Park will be affected by ash dieback. Some of the more mature trees may be strong enough to survive. What is known is that 60% of the trees at the park are ash. Lost many years ago, the elm trees were victims of Dutch Elm Disease. Today some elm trees come up as seedlings but become diseased before reaching full maturity. There is nothing that can be done to protect the ash so it is a matter of wait and see what happens. Sycamores, a non-native tree, are often cut down to make space for the ash. Perhaps more sycamores will be left while other native species are found to take the place of the ash trees. We were shown two areas where coppicing had taken place six months ago (left) and 18 months ago (right) so that we could see how growth had been stimulated in the coppiced area increasing biodiversity. Note that a high net- like fence surrounds the area to protect the new growth from deer. Branches that have been cut are left to provide habitat for insects and other small animals. Of course, they will soon decay and rot away. In the meantime, the work of volunteers is of utmost importance. If you have a few hours to spend in the great outdoors,doingajobtopreserveawelllovedparkforthefuture please volunteer. Contact Andrea to volunteer. 07990 582 291 or email [email protected] Generally volunteers meet of the third Friday of the month. Cheryl Allen 3 Transform Leatherhead – The Journey - 'End of the Beginning' Progress-InourSpringIssuewewroteaboutprogresstoStageTwoofthedevelopmentandconsultationprocess. Nodoubt most of our readers will have taken part in some or all the consultation stages and the level of consultation has been significantly high. Now we know the final outcome of these deliberations and the Planners and Officers have produced their Final Report for approval by Mole Valley District Council Executive. Significant Purchases - As well as purchasing Claire& James Houses down bytheriver,MVDC havebeen activein purchasing the majority of the Swan Centre. Both these positive moves should unlock potential for realizing part of the Transform aims. Involvement - The Leatherhead Residents’ Association has been involved in discussions throughout this process, not only through representation on the Community Reference Group but also at Resident Association meetings with senior executives of MVDC. We have expressed our approval of much of the work and direction of the planning process and are much heartened by the financial commitment that changes for the better will happen. However we naturally still do have some reservations and concerns. Finance - With the uncertain outcome from the ‘Brexit’ decision in the country we wonder if the finance for these developments will be forthcoming from the government for the infrastructure alterations and from potential developers. That said, MVDC is already deeply committed as demonstrated by its two significant purchases. Strategic Objectives – To enable Leatherhead to ‘raise its game’ to attract residents, commuters and visitors, we see four key strategic objectives which are in the hands of MVDC and SCC. Image. We consider that while the Transform process will inevitably expand the town, it should do so in a manner that, in scale and architectural form, is consistent with a small market-town. Roads. It is universally acknowledged that the Town has a major problem with both the capacity and the complexity of its road network. We believe that vehicular accessibility needs to be addressed very quickly before development options become too fixed. Parking. Parking is accepted as an existing major weakness, which will only be exacerbated by new development. Leatherhead is an important commuter town, which needs a substantial amount of convenient commuter parking. If, as planned, it has more shops and more central-area flats it is essential that there is adequate parking for the people who wish to use them. Infrastructure. Finally, if the town is to grow as proposed, it is essential that all of its infrastructure facilities are assessed as being adequate or are upgraded to be made adequate. This includes sewers; water supply; medical services; education facilities; flood control etc. etc. These are fundamentals, which needtobeuptostandardbeforeabrickofdevelopment is laid. We have been assured by the Officers of MVDC that all these keys to success are being actively addressed - Watch this space. John W Wilson Planning and Development in General. At the last meeting of the local Residents’ Associations and Mole Valley officers, Chief Planning Officer Jack Straw gave a long talk on the pressures that the Government is putting on the Local Authorities. The push for new homes is influencing the government agenda. Last December came the ruling that starter homes must come in with a 20% discount.

BOAs are those areas where targeted maintenance, restoration and creation of Natural Environment & Rural Communities (NERC) Act ‘Habitats of Principal Importance’, ie. Priority habitats will have the greatest benefit towards achieving this aim. Realising BOA aims will contribute to UK commitments to halt biodiversity declines, and their recognition directly meets current National Planning Policy Framework policy to plan strategically for the enhancement of the natural environment; to be achieved by providing net gains for biodiversity and establishing coherent ecological networks that are more resilient to current and future pressures (para. 170). Designation of BOAs also fulfils NPPF requirements to identify, map and safeguard components of wider ecological networks, and areas identified for habitat management, enhancement, restoration or creation (para.

  • Restoring Surrey's
    RESTORING SURREY’S Nature 5 year strategic summary 2018-23 Securing the future of Surrey’s wildlife Surrey Wildlife Trust was founded with a simple but vital objective: to protect and nurture wildlife. As biodiversity continues to decline across the UK, our mission remains the same. However, the evidence shows that we need to change the way we approach it. Looking beyond our boundaries There’s no doubt that the 80 reserves we manage are safe havens for nature. Thanks to our conservation work, 98% of them are now in ‘favourable or recovering’ condition (compared with 62% in 2002). However, they only cover 5% of the county and are fast becoming oases of healthy habitat in a steadily degrading natural landscape. The sad fact is that one third of Surrey’s wildlife species are either extinct or heading that way. Work in partnership So what do we do? We will start by continuing to manage our existing reserves to the high standard we have set, but we simply don’t have the funds or resources to take direct responsibility for a significantly larger area. Therefore, we must cooperate with other land owners and managers to spread good conservation principles and practice. This means helping them to restore more habitats and to create green corridors between nature reserves that enable species to move and flourish more widely. It also means working with local people and inspiring them to value and protect nature. Together we aim to create what is known as a ‘living landscape’. © Tom Marshall © Jon Hawkins Working in partnership, we will be focusing on 3 key areas of the county to maximise our impact on the ground.

See Principles on main webpage. High hills, views, long ascents and descents, river meadows In Brief This is the first walk on this site to be a little tougher than “moderate” in one or two parts, although walkers of any age need not be daunted as all the paths are well made, with flights of steps on the longest ascents and descents. Between taxing stretches at the start and finish there is a soothing episode in woodland and by sheep fields beside the River Mole. This is an excellent winter walk, when views of the river are enhanced. There are at least three possible places for refreshment along the route, especially in Mickleham where you will find the Running Horses (for ? enquiries, ring 01372-372279 or email [email protected] ). There are nettles on one stretch of this walk during summer when long trousers are recommended. Boots are also recommended because of the steep terrain but many walkers will use trainers whatever the weather since the paths are all dry.

  • River Mole and Yeo West Wiltshire Flyfishers Guild
    River Mole and Yeo West Wiltshire Flyfishers Guild An advisory visit carried out by the Wild Trout Trust – 30th October 2008 1. Introduction This report is the output of a Wild Trout Trust advisory visit undertaken on the Rivers Mole and Yeo on behalf of the West Wiltshire Flyfishing Guild. The advisory visit was carried out at the request of the WWFG who control four and a half miles of fishing rights on the River Mole and the adjoining River Yeo. Both sections of river have been subject to an ambitious enhancement scheme aimed at reducing heavy marginal tree shading through a programme of selective tree coppicing. This project has been financed by the Environment Agency in partnership with the Taw Fisheries Association, Wild Trout Trust, WWFG and local land owners and managed by local Environment Management Officer Mr Jerry Boyd. A key element of the advisory visit was to try and identify further improvement works that the fishing club can implement. During the site visit the author was accompanied by the representatives of the WWFFG Mr John Williams and other members of the fishing club’s committee as well as Mr Boyd from the Environment Agency. The comments and recommendations made in this report are based on the observations of the Trust’s Conservation Officer, Andy Thomas and discussions with the Mole/Yeo representative of the WWFFG Mr John Williams and other members of the fishing club’s committee as well as Mr Boyd from the Environment Agency. Fishery survey data collected from sites sampled on the club’s waters was obtained from Mr Dave Hoskins from the Environment Agency’s Environmental Appraisal Team.

  • River Mole Rises Near Gatwick Airport to the S and Flows More Or Less Northward Joined by a Number of Small Tributaries
    Introduction The River Mole rises near Gatwick Airport to the S and flows more or less northward joined by a number of small tributaries. At Sidlow Bridge it turns NW then W. Just E of Dorking it swings N again through a gap in the N Downs and eventually flows into the Thames at Molesey. Geological Walks This walk, through a section of the Mole Gap, will help you to understand the in the Dorking Area history of the stretch of the river and so explain the topography. (Walks 2 & 3) 1) Start A: From Rykers Car Park cross the road and walk past the hotel to Walk 2: A Walk in the Mole Gap: Terraces the Burford Bridge roundabout. Cross the bridge over the river and walk along the A24 for a short way to the underpass. Use this to cross the A24. & Swallow Holes (Length 2½ or 3½ miles / 4 or 5½ km) You will emerge close to Westhumble Street which leads to Boxhill Station. Note the use of flints in walls. These are derived from the Upper Chalk. A circular walk with one short fairly steep climb and including one designated Because the flints are of irregular shape and so need a lot of mortar to hold RIGS (Regionally Important Geological / Geomorphological Site). them in place, the walls are reinforced at intervals with brick pillars.
