No Mow May for Great Coxwell

4/5/2022

 
The Parish Council has received a notice from the South Oxfordshire and Vale of White Horse District Councils pledging their support for No Mow May, a national campaign to encourage people not to mow gardens and public areas during May. We intend to include Great Coxwell in this and will postpone the cutting of verges, footpaths and the Park until June with the following caveats:

  • that the path to Faringdon remains passable;
  • that vegetation doesn't limit visibility at corners or requires cars to drive into the middle of the road to avoid vegetation, safety will be the overriding priority;
  • maintaining the grass in the central area of the Park so that it can still be used for recreation and does not form a trip hazard; and
  • cutting the grass around the Reading Room for Art Weeks (14&15th May and 21st&22nd May) to allow the café to set up tables on the grass.
 
The campaign is intended to encourage people to let grass grow long to help boost biodiversity and provide a refuge for wildflower blossom, increasing the supply of nectar for bees. Not cutting lawns for a month will encourage more wildflowers to grow with May being the time at which grass grows fastest.
 
At the end of May, people are asked to take part in Every Flower Counts (https://www.plantlife.org.uk/everyflowercounts/), a survey to show how many bees the UK’s lawns can feed and for the councils to assess how the trial has impacted each area.
 
More information on how the VWHDC will carry out grass cutting can be found at http://www.whitehorsedc.gov.uk/NoMowMay.
 
Verge cutting in Great Coxwell
Attached are maps showing the areas of verge that our contractor BGG will be cutting and those verges which will be maintained by property owners. This information is based on information held by the Parish Council last year and we are asking anyone who wishes to make any changes to this to please notify the Clerk, Jo Farrant at clerk@greatcoxwell.com. We would be grateful if this message could be passed on to anyone who does not receive the Newsletter.

Conservation Area

6/4/2022

 
Dear Sir/Madam

We are emailing to invite you to have your say on proposed changes to the conservation area in Great Coxwell as you have been identified as an important stakeholder.

What is a conservation area?
The village’s conservation area is the designated area of special architectural or historic interest which exists to protect the features and characteristics that make Great Coxwell a historic, unique and distinctive place.

Why are we reviewing the conservation area?
It is a requirement that all councils coordinate and publish appraisals for the preservation and enhancement of conservation areas and that these proposals are reviewed from time to time.

This is the first comprehensive Conservation Area Appraisal document that has been produced for Great Coxwell. The document has been authored by the Great Coxwell neighbourhood plan team. We have a statutory duty to consult the public on this new document before it is adopted.


Have your say as part of our review process
As part of the review process, we are now inviting comments on the proposed changes to the Great Coxwell Conservation Area Appraisal document. 

You can find out more information about the review on our website.  

How to comment
We are inviting your comments on the Great Coxwell Conservation Area Appraisal document during an eight-week consultation period which runs from Wednesday 6 April until 11.59pm Wednesday 1 June.


The quickest and easiest way to comment is to use our online comment form.

Note that this is a unique link just for you and is tied to your email address. If you would like to forward this message to anybody else, please refer them to the public link to the survey.

What happens next
After the consultation period ends, we will consider your comments and make appropriate changes to the draft document and boundary revision before we proceed to adopt it via the council’s cabinet process. Once adopted, we will publish the cabinet report, new conservation area appraisal document and adopted revised boundary on our website.

We look forward to hearing your views.

Kind regards

Boris van der Ree
Conservation Enquiry Officer
Vale of White Horse District Council
