    The Portland Square and Albert Place District: Land, Houses and Early Occupants As Originally Published in the Cheltenham Local History Society Journal

    The Portland Square and Albert Place District: land, houses and early occupants As originally published in the Cheltenham Local History Society Journal. Reproduced with the kind permission of the Author MIKE GRINDLEY T'is gone with its thorns and its roses, With the dust of dead ages to mix! Time's charnel forever encloses The year Eighteen Hundred and Six THUS THE LOCAL PRESS i alluded to the 1806 Cheltenham Inclosure Award which allotted ownership of areas of potential building land on the north side of the town, including the piece of orchard that later became the Portland Square development. Numbered 223 under the Award, it bordered the Prestbury Road opposite the SE edge of the future Pittville Estate; to the south were the lands on which the streets of Fairview came to be built. Detail from Merrett’s 1834 map of Cheltenham, showing extent of Portland Square development by then. THE LAND AND ITS OWNERS: 1739 ­ 1824 The earliest mention of land so far seen in Portland Square deeds ii is in the November 1739 Will of Samuel Whithorne Esq., of the ancient Charlton Kings family. On 2 January 1801 his grandson, John Whithorne the younger, sold to William Wills of Cheltenham, gent., for £200 ‘all those three acres and a half of arable land [in four lots] lying dispersedly in and about a field in the parish of Cheltenham called Sandfield, otherwise Prestbury Field, otherwise Whaddon Field’. The tenant was John Peacey, a Charlton Kings plasterer. William Wills was a peruke maker of the then 48 High Street, who died in Spring 1804, leaving all his houses and lands to his widow Penelope, their son William to inherit on her death.

    Leckhampton with Warden Hill Parish Council For the attention of Sarah Pearse MA BSc MRTPI Principal Planning Officer Strategic Infrastructure Planning - Development Management Gloucestershire County Council Shire Hall, Westgate Street, Gloucester. GL1 2TH 29th June 2020 Application by Head of Property Services, Gloucestershire County Council for Construction of a new 6 forms of entry secondary school building, with a new all-weather pitch, sports playing fields, a multi-use games area, onsite parking and other associated works at Land Between Farm Lane/Kidnappers Lane Cheltenham Gloucestershire (application no: 19/0058/CHR3MJ) Dear Sarah The High School Leckhampton Application: concerns and risks We understand that GCC plans shortly to approve the application. As you are aware the Parish Council is concerned about several issues in the application and we believe that GCC has not properly addressed the requirements of the NPPF in respect to valued landscape and may be at risk of legal action by local residents over this. In addition the recent announcement about changes to the catchment area undermines the basis for the previous traffic modelling and suggests that this should be recalculated as it significantly increases the risk of even worse traffic congestion than before. The Leckhampton Fields are designated as valued landscape by the Secretary of State and fall under NPPF paragraph 170 which states that: ‘Planning policies and decisions should contribute to and enhance the natural and local environment by: a) protecting and enhancing valued landscapes, sites of biodiversity or geological value and soils (in a manner commensurate with their statutory status or identified quality in the development plan).’ In the case of the Leckhampton Fields, the development plan is the Gloucester-Cheltenham- Tewkesbury Joint Core Strategy and the Cheltenham Local Plan which is awaiting adoption delayed by the Covid-19 lockdown.
