The Village Website for Kingscote & Newington Bagpath in Gloucestershire
HelloI’ve just watched RHS Chatsworth & heard that John Wedgwood who was one of the founders of RHS lives in Kingscote & had a garden here. I’m curious to know which house he lived in & therefore which garden was his. Does anyone know please?
Thanks
Sharon at No. 11
Please join us on a guided walk to Boxwell on Sunday 16th June. Full details below.
Please note there is an error in June’s edition of the Forerunner. The information regarding the party for our retiring postman, Martin, should read as follows:
Martin’s Farewell Party – FRIDAY 28 June, 4.00pm at the Village Hall.
Our faithful and always cheerful (even when soaking wet) postman Martin will be leaving us this summer, and Soffi Bond is arranging a farewell gathering in the village hall. Please come along and enjoy this event, and show our gratitude to Martin for his many years of service and friendship.

Dear all,
As you may be aware Valley Trading have applied to increase their current recycling limit at Babdown Airfield from 45,000 tons to 75,000 tons. This is a vast capacity, on the scale of a big city and the location of the site is quite unsuitable. The resulting increase in HGV traffic would have an unacceptable impact on the surrounding roads and villages including Beverston, Tetbury, Kingscote and Nailsworth, and it needs to be resisted. The application was very low on detail and Valley Trading have been asked to provide supporting information which will include likely vehicle movements.
We are really grateful to the work of the Parish councillors, and our MP, Geoffrey Clifton-Brown who have led the objections on this, and I note there are over 70 independent objections on the Gloucestershire planning website with more being added each day. A Facebook page for those wishing to reject the application has been set up and can be found athttps://www.facebook.com/groups/367776513945795/?ref=group_header
Despite this, it appears that the application has not been well publicised, and we have complained that formal notifications seem to have been overlooked in many areas. Therefore, we felt it may be useful to hold a group meeting with the objective of formalising and growing support for the objections to the site.
I am hoping therefore you can join us for a brief meeting in The Barn at Calcot at 18:00 on Friday 17th May. It would be good to air the views of each impacted parish, and our own planning consultants CSJ Planning will be on hand to answer any technical issues on the application. Hopefully we can conclude with a plan of action to grow support for the objections, perhaps the various bodies, Beverston, Kingscote, Tetbury (TTC) etc could join together in a planned campaign with the backing of the elected representatives.
I would be extremely grateful if you could spread this invitation far and wide and to any of those who may have been missed from circulation.
