  • 2015/2016 Report to Parish Council Re: Deanshanger Village Heritage Society
    Deanshanger Annual Parish meeting 22 April 2016 Report booklet Deanshanger Parish Council The parish council would like to thank the residents of Deanshanger for voting for them in the 2015 elections, it’s been a challenge as well as hard work, but though the learning curve is a steep one, the council is delivering results now and has plans for 2016 which will help the village. The parish council have maintained the same precept as 2014/15 which is excellent news to residents as there has been no increased costs. The Council have all finances and the records up to date to ensure the monies secured and held by the Parish Council are accountable and the use of funds is widely known. The council has the precept as well as some secured funds from development in the village. There is also the New Homes Bonus which groups of Deanshanger have access to apply to for funds. We have this year looked to work with the police to ensure we have issues facilitated and managed and worked with the police to maintain a safe environment. Also working with the police and the community to support Neighbourhood Watch and understand where we can support new initiatives such as street watch. The council has seen a lot of a change with new councillors, now up to capacity along with a new clerk. All of which has been exciting and challenging, to ensure that the running of the council is in order, up to standard and for everyone to understand the polices which sometimes have been challenging due to the amount of bureaucracy involved.

Pidgeon Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 15 December 2011 ii iii ABSTRACT Who were the Wydeviles? The family arrived with the Conqueror in 1066. As followers in the Conqueror’s army the Wydeviles rose through service with the Mowbray family. If we accept the definition given by Crouch and Turner for a brief period of time the Wydeviles qualified as barons in the twelfth century. This position was not maintained. By the thirteenth century the family had split into two distinct branches. The senior line settled in Yorkshire while the junior branch settled in Northamptonshire. The junior branch of the family gradually rose to prominence in the county through service as escheator, sheriff and knight of the shire.

Many of you will know John, or will have had had dealings with him, as he has been on the Council for approaching thirty years, and for much of that time has looked after membership matters. In 1981, when I believe he took over the role, there were 138 people on the membership list. Now there are well on the way to seven times that number. So his work has been the foundation on which the Society has built and grown. He has dealt, steadily and uncomplainingly, with the accompanying growth in administration, and has been the all-important human face of the Society to those joining, and to the many members who have had subsequent queries.

  • O4/00219/Min Extraction of Sand and Gravel with Restoration to Agriculture Using Imported Inert Material Land at Calverton East of Passenham Sand and Gravel Pit
    O4/00219/MIN EXTRACTION OF SAND AND GRAVEL WITH RESTORATION TO AGRICULTURE USING IMPORTED INERT MATERIAL LAND AT CALVERTON EAST OF PASSENHAM SAND AND GRAVEL PIT INTRODUCTION Members will recall that a planning application for sand and gravel excavation from the same site as the current application was refused in October 2003. The reasons for the refusal was that the development would have a damaging effect on the landscape and the setting of the Passenham Conservation Area; it had not been demonstrated that the proposed restoration was achievable, and this would appear as an unnatural feature in the landscape; and the development would result in the destruction of the ridge and furrow landform and the need for the aggregate was not proven. The refusal was appealed against and an Inquiry was held in July of last year. On the advice of Counsel conducting the case matters pursued on behalf of the Council at the Inquiry were the lack of need for the sand and gravel, the damaging effect of the development on the landscape and the loss of the ridge and furrow landform. However, objectors to the proposal were heard at the Inquiry and the Inspector considered that the main issues that he had to take into account included the effect of the proposal on the setting of the Passenham Conservation Area with its listed buildings, the implications for environmental and neighbour interests including noise, ecology, noise dust outlook and flood risk, the need for sand and gravel, whether the restoration would harm the character and appearance of the area, the effect on archaeological interest and the prospect of securing an acceptable access.

  • 2018 Hydrogeological Risk Assessment Review, Passenham Quarry
    Our Ref: A099801/HRA Date: 1st March 2019 GRS (Roadstone) Limited 10 Goldsmith Way, Eliot Business Park, Nuneaton, Warwickshire, CV10 7RJ Dear Sir/ Madame, 2018 HYDROGEOLOGICAL RISK ASSESSMENT REVIEW, PASSENHAM QUARRY Introduction WYG Environment (WYG) has been commissioned to prepare and submit an Environmental Permit variation application on behalf of GRS (Roadstone) Ltd for a proposed extension of Passenham Quarry, Buckingham Road, Deanshanger, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, MK19 6JT. Landfilling with inert materials at Passenham Quarry is to be extended in a single area outside the current permit boundary. This extension is shown edged red on David L Walker Ltd Drawing No. P14/5.6/1001 appended to this letter report. As part of this commission, WYG has reviewed the previous Hydrogeological Risk Assessment (HRA) for the Passenham Quarry site to determine whether it is still applicable and the WYG 2015 Hydrogeological Risk Assessment Review (Ref: A091151/ HRA). Background The original HRA for Passenham Quarry was undertaken by Environmental Simulations International (ESI) and ARUP in May 2005. Reviews of this HRA, made available to review by WYG, were undertaken by ESI in 2009 and 2015. The 2015 review concluded that the original model, environmental acceptance levels and conclusions of the original 2005 HRA were still valid. In addition, it was concluded that the site remained in compliance with the Landfill (England and Wales) Regulations 2002 and the Groundwater Regulations 1998. In 2015 WYG undertook a review of the HRA following proposed changes to the landfilling at Passenham Quarry that significantly increased the volumes of landfill material to the east and the west of the River Great Ouse.
