Horningsea Herald October 2020

Here’s October’s Horningsea Herald.

In preparation for a further lockdown we wanted to remind Horningsea residents that help will be available for any Horningsea resident that will be shielding or vulnerable. The Horningsea Assists group will be revived (well they never really went away). If you want to volunteer your help in the coming months then email horningsea-assist@googlegroups.com.

Next weekend as part of the Bike Revival Bike repairs scheme book yourself in for free repairs to your bike on the village green,

Finally here’s a letter from our ex-vicar, Rev. Alun Ford.

Look after yourselves and your neighbours.

Horningsea Herald September 2020

The nights are drawing in and school’s back. Almost back to normal? Don’t worry here’s September’s Horningsea Herald.

The consultation on moving the sewage works comes to an end on the 14th of September. It is looking likely that site 3, i.e. just next to Horningsea, will be the chosen location.

If you think it stinks that Green Belt land will be ruined in order to build a high density housing project just next to the A14 (flyer attached for the North East Cambridge district (NECAAP) consultation) then make sure you go comment before the 14th.

If you live on the south side of Horningsea then you will see the 26metre high digester towers (about six storeys high). Even worse at night with the illuminated towers. You will hear the noise of the machinery and probably a bit smelly too! If you travel (walk cycle or car) then the 146 lorries delivering slurry to the site every day will affect you!

On nicer news, the church is resuming live services on Sunday the 13th and the Crown and Punchbowl have a special offer for us locals!

Finally read about a previous inhabitant of Horningsea and his experience on the Atlantic convoys during WWII.

Consultation on disabled access to the church

St Peter’s church is now consulting on its revised scheme to improve disabled access.

This entails lowering of the floor in the south porch to create level access into the church, the adjustment of the path from the south porch to create a gentle slope to the externally-accessed disabled WC, and the introduction of a new drain and soakaway.

The Architect’s Specification, associated drawings and three photosheets may be viewed in the south porch, or online

On Sunday 16 August, Andy Clarke will be available at the church from 2pm to 4.30pm to explain the proposal. If you can’t make that time, you can contact Andy on 861314 or andyclarke2 (at)pm.me

If you wish to object to any of the works or proposals you should send a letter or email stating the grounds of your objection to The Diocesan Registrar at

The Bishop of Ely’s Registry
1 The Sanctuary
Westminster
London
SW1P 3JT

ely.registry@1thesanctuary.com

so that your letter or email reaches the registrar not later than Friday 4th September 2020.

A letter of objection must include your name and address and state whether you live in the parish and/or your name is entered on the church electoral roll of the parish or any other basis on which you have an interest in the matter.

Horningsea Herald Mid July 2020

The mid July’s Horningsea Herald sees another rearing of the ugly head of Honey Hill sewage works.

If you’ve missed the badly addressed consultation letter from Anglian Water, then they are proposing three sites to relocate the sewage works at Milton. One just a few hundred metres from our village.

There’s information inside the Herald about the project and what you can do. Plus a flyer is also attached that would fit nicely in a window facing the street!

This morning our very own Catherine Morris was on BBC Cambridgeshire’s Jeremy Salis show talking about the project and the potential threat to our village:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p08jzbz4

This evening and tomorrow afternoon there are two webinars where you can ask questions about this project:

Register by email: info@cwwtpr.com or telephone: 0808 196 1661 9am – 5pm Mon – Fri:
Thursday 23 July 7pm to 8pm
Friday 24 July 2pm to 3pm
This is the last mid month Herald for now. From August onwards it will become a monthly edition once again. Let’s hope we all have more things to do than read it!
