  • The Morris Brothers(Sons of Charles Henry and Emily Morris)
    Great War in the Villages Project The Morris Brothers (sons of Charles Henry and Emily Morris). Prior to the commencement of the Great War there were two families that shared the same surname of Morris living within the parishes of Wellesbourne. The family of Henry Charles Morris and Emily, his wife, were relative newcomers to the area whereas John Henry and Alice Morris could trace their roots within Wellesbourne to at least the 18th century. It appears that the families were not closely related. Entries in the local South Warwickshire newspapers during the years of the Great War suggested that there were two members of Henry Charles’s family that served in that war, his sons Harry and Jesse. Henry Charles Morris was born during the early months of 1867 in the south Oxfordshire village of Horspath. He married Emily Pinn in Headington, Oxfordshire during the spring or early summer of 1892. She was also a native of the county. Recordsi suggest that the couple had 11 children yet only 6 survived infancy. Harry Morris. Private, Oxford & Bucks Light Infantry (Believed). Harry was born on the 13th October 1894 in Headington Oxfordshire and subsequently baptised in the Holy Trinity Church of Headington Quarry on 25th November of the same year. The family then appeared to move around the country possibly as his father sought work. They arrived in Wellesbourne around January 1905 when his son Harry was registered to join the village schoolii, the family having previously lived in Chandlers Ford, Hampshire. The 1911 census, the last prior to the commencement of the Great War, indicates that Harry, then aged 16 years worked as a General Labourer.

  • Berkswell Parish Council Response to the Draft Solihull Housing Plan
    Berkswell Parish Council Response to the draft Solihull Housing plan consultation 1. Introduction and summary 1.1. Summary 1.1.1. The Council’s general view is that there are significant errors and omissions in the site selection methodology. An overview is given in answer to question 2 and particular comments for the Barratt’s Farm and Windmill Lane sites. These errors and omissions are such that the results are considered to be badly flawed. 1.1.2. The Council has been advised by residents of other significant errors within the SHELAA that materially impact the scoring results. The Council has not had the time and resources to study these but will have investigated by the time of the examination. 1.1.3. The Council supports the inclusion within this version of the plan of brownfield sites that were omitted from the first draft of the plan. 1.1.4. The Council considers that brownfield sites should be phased for development during the early phases of the plan to allow time for any development issues to be resolved within the 15-year plan period. If necessary greenfield sites can then be brought forward if the brownfield sites slip. 1.1.5. The Council is concerned that there is no reflection of the Berkswell Parish draft NDP within the draft plan. 1.1.6. The Council welcomes the infrastructure plan but makes significant suggestions for enhancement. Berkswell Parish Council apologises for the length of this submission but considers that the issues are important and worthy of deep consideration with an honest attempt by SMBC to conduct a suitable and sufficient review of the draft plan proposals.
