    ADDENDUM to UTT/ 13/3123/FUL (STRETHALL) (Referred to Committee by Cllr Menell. Reason: Impact on local countryside, visual impact on ancient manor of Strethall and church. Possible destruction of special verges, fauna and flora. Overdevelopment on constrained site. Contrary to policy ENV8, ENV9, and H6) PROPOSAL: New dwelling LOCATION: Ryders Barns, Strethall Lane, Strethall, APPLICANT: Mr Michael Vanoli EXPIRY DATE: 14 January 2013 CASE OFFICER: Tony Boswell This application was considered at the Committee’s last meeting on the 15th of January 2014 and was deferred to allow a site inspection and further information on two points. a) The alignment of the “Icknield Way Footpath” where that passes through the application site. A Statutory Footpath passes through the application site and would not be obstructed by the proposed new house – (although it might be marginally disrupted during construction). That statutory footpath forms part of the modern “Icknield Way Footway”, which is the route now favoured and recommended for use by ramblers and others seeking to follow approximately the route of the historic Icknield Way - rom Ivinghoe Beacon in Buckinghamshire to Knettishall Heath in Norfolk (approximately 110 miles). That historic route predates all of the modern field boundaries and local roads – generally less than 300 years old, and actually pre- dates the roman era. The map below is enlarged from a map published on-line by the Icknield Way Association and shows that ancient route, with the application site also indicated on that same map base. b) It should be noted that the Icknield Way Association were consulted about the current planning application and did not raise any objection.

  • Rough Justice for 'Little Abel'
    ROUGH JUSTICE FOR ‘LITTLE ABEL’ I am sure that most people walking along the Icknield Way would have occasionally thought about the route in bygone years, speculation prompted by the historical notes in the Walker’s Guidebook or perhaps from reading memorials in churches. One such event is recorded as a brief footnote on the pages concerning the route at Strethall. So let’s go back to the middle of the 19th century and look at the area around there. At that time, the area was covered by its own policeman, Constable No. 55, one William Miller of Elmdon. At nearby Newport was the Essex Divisional police station and its commander, Superintendent John Clarke. There was no inspector and sergeants would not be invented for another six years. The largest local town (in Essex) was Saffron Walden which had a High Constable. The main highway in the area (later to become the A11) ran from Bishops Stortford to Cambridge and Newmarket, passing through Newport. The arrival of the railway lay another 25 years into the future. As a main thoroughfare, the road through Newport was also sometimes used by Superintendent Barnes of the Hertfordshire Constabulary, both constabularies being in communication with the Chief Constables of various smaller police forces in the fenland from time to time. Although the population was solidly agricultural, a class of itinerants, pea-and potato-pickers, gypsies and gangs of criminals also used the main highway and some were well-known to the police. Upon a knoll, from which on a clear day Ely Cathedral could be seen, is the tiny Strethall Church.

  • NEWSLETTER 203 NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2014 Price 40P, Free to Members
    LOUGHTON AND DISTRICT HISTORICAL SOCIETY NEWSLETTER 203 NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2014 Price 40p, free to members www.loughtonhistoricalsociety.org.uk 52nd Season Warren Hill House A recent planning application for an extension to one of Loughton’s larger stately Victorian mansions prompted me to research the history of the house over the past 150 years, to see if any covenants had been imposed which would prohibit new buildings. As is often the case in historical research the results of my investigations produced more information than I had expected and demonstrated the considerable amount of source material available in researching the history of houses. Warren Hill House lies on the northern side of Manor Road, towards the junction with the Epping New Road, and the site is surrounded by Epping Forest. The plot was carved out of a substantial enclosure, made in about 1865, and covered about 18 acres at that time. Reference is made to the enclosure in one of the gardener in 1881, lived at Warren Hill Lodge, with his documents submitted to the Epping Forest Com- wife, son and daughter. missioners in 1872, in which the plot is described as ‘an entrance lodge and site cleared for a residence’. The owner is shown as Nathaniel Sewell. A Deed of Enfranchisement, probably between the Lord of the Manor and Nathaniel Sewell, had been signed in 1865, and included the condition that ‘no house erected on the land should be used as a public house, inn or beer shop or a place of public enter- tainment or public worship’. The 1871 census refers to Sewell’s Lodge in Manor Road, with John Weeks, a gardener, the then occu- In January 1882, Sir pant.

    41 WATER: THE BIG QUESTIONS By Cllr Richard Pavi Two issues have pushed water on to the Government’s agenda. One is polluon of the nation’s rivers and the failure of the Environment Agency to prevent this; the other concern is a serious shortage of water in the east of England. This is evident locally where our rivers are being robbed of their flow due to over-abstracon of the Chalk aquifer. This raises environmental concerns and a big question over the future resilience of our water supply. Before you wonder, this is not a funcon of lack of rainfall. The mean rainfall around the Essex/Cambs border has not changed significantly for the past 60 years. The problem is enrely man-made, resulng from population expansion and over-development in the south east of England. However medium-longer term climate change could trigger drought conditions. The north of Ulesford sits above a Chalk aquifer that stretches in a narrow arc from Wiltshire through the Thames Basin to north Norfolk and the east coast. For thousands of years this aquifer has produced alkaline water of great purity and near constant temperature year round. The resulng Chalk streams support a unique biodiversity; but for the past 40 years this has been badly neglected by those responsible for protecng our environment, principally the EA. This is all more unforgiveable when you consider that most of the world’s 200 or so remaining chalk streams are in England. Ecologically, they are our rain forests, our unique contribution to global ecology. Chalk streams are highly sensive and in our area suffer a double whammy: lack of water + polluon.

  • Uttlesford District Neighbourhood Watch
    Scrutiny Committee 7 December 2010 Agenda Item 6 Supported UTTLESFORD DISTRICT By NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH STEERING GROUP Chairman: Alan Johnson Secretary: Peter Caulfield, Essex Police, East Street, Saffron Walden, CB10 1LX e-mail: Peter.Caulfield@essex.pnn.police.uk PROGRESS REPORT FOR UDC SCRUTINY COMMITTEE 7 DECEMBER 2010 The Community Safety Officer and the Chair of the Uttlesford District Neighbourhood Watch Steering Group attended the meeting of the Scrutiny Committee meeting on 11 February 2010 and presented an overview of the Neighbourhood Watch (NhW) organisation across the District and the level of coverage. This indicated that 67% of households were included, and that the challenge was to improve this coverage particularly in the more heavily populated locations. Since that time, a number of new schemes are being progressed and new co-ordinators are being recruited. This includes discussions in: Wicken Bonhunt, Felsted, Arksden, Littlebury and Wimbish Along with further growth in Saffron Walden and Great Dunmow, this has increased coverage to 75% of households across the District. The attached table provides a broad indication of the status of NhW coverage, using a simple colour coding. This will help focus attention on the areas that are working well (shown in green), those that need to be improved by extending coverage and recruiting more co-ordinators (yellow), and those where a scheme needs to be set up (red). The table also shows (in blue) those locations where potential schemes are being progressed. To emphasise the size issue, those locations with a population in excess of 1,000 are shown in bold. We are also in discussions with Essex Police regarding the post of Essex Watch Administrator, as well as general support for NhW, as the impact on budgets arising from the financial constraints are revealed.

    Norman Hall, Mill Lane, Ickleton Cambridgeshire An Archaeological Evaluation Assessment. Simon Timberlake CAMBRIDGE ARCHAEOLOGICAL UNIT Land to the rear of Norman Hall, Mill Lane, Ickleton, Cambridgeshire An archaeological evaluation Simon Timberlake Cambridge Archaeology Unit University of Cambridge June 2013 Report No. 1172 ECB3969 Between the 9th-10th May 2013 the CAU undertook an archaeological trench evaluation within the grounds of Norman Hall, Mill Road, Ickleton. This consisted of 13m of trenching dug across the middle of the proposed development area (PDA) at TL 49607 43956. Up to 1.2m of soil overlay the natural gravel, and within this sequence was found a buried soil containing moderate amounts of worked flint ranging from the Mesolithic/Early Neolithic to the Middle Bronze Age/ Iron Age plus a small amount of Iron Age and Medieval pottery. No prehistoric features were identified, though some flint-filled tree-throws were located beneath the buried soil. However, at the north end of the main trench a NE-SW aligned Postmedieval? Boundary ditch was discovered, the base of which truncated an earlier pit/ tree-throw containing Roman pottery. 1 Introduction Between the 9th-10th May 2013 the CAU undertook a small archaeological trench evaluation within the grounds of Norman Hall, Mill Road, Ickleton on the footprint for a proposed new dwelling. This consisted of 13m of trenching dug across the middle of the proposed development area (PDA) at TL 49607 43956, the latter centred upon an area of open lawn surrounded by trees at the eastern end of this now divided property (this property was split into two following the sale of the Grade II 15th-century farmhouse).

  • The Parish of the Icknield Way Villages Profile
    The Parish of the Icknield Way Villages Profile Welcome to our parish. Thank you for being interested in us. All Together…… God’s work in progress The Parish of the Icknield Way Villages (cont’d) We are praying that God is preparing a new leader for us. We believe that you, too, will be praying about whether that person might be you. Who are we? We are a single rural parish comprising seven villages in north-west Essex. Our last rector consolidated the work of forming us into one parish, and he leaves us as a warm, hospitable Christian community in good heart and harmony. We believe that God is at work here.
