Just after 7.00am this morning (7th September), Thames Valley Police executed a warrant in Bartholomew Street Newbury under the Theft Act 1968.

On entering the property a 20-year-old woman was issued with a Fixed Penalty Notice for possession of Class B drugs.

A 20-year-old man from Newbury was arrested on suspicion of burglary.

A 19-year-old man was arrested for breach of bail and breaching his ASBO.

Both men are currently being held in police custody.

Quoted from brian
I'm not sure why Mr H needs to bang his drum by publicising his "question in the House".

Pretty obvious, he sees an opportunity to embarrass the Tories for WBC lack of support for NTC's attempt to find out why WBC's park is deteriorating so badly.

Quoted from brian
I'll bet Pam will have the answer though.

Not quite - she didn't seem to know what was going on.  Living in Pangbourne I suppose she doesn't get to Newbury much ...

Quoted from Meddler
Small world....is this the same Roger Hunneman who campaigned for an even bigger underground car park, or is someone extracting the *****

http://www.newburytoday.co.uk/News/Article.aspx?articleID=6254

I don't see the issue here?  Surely it is okay to support the building of something and still expect it to be built in a responsible manner that doesn't involve damaging the entire neighbourhood.  According to the plans the car park should have been about ready by now and, I guess, the pumping finished.  If Parkway had been built on time would the cracks ever have appeared?  Has the extended period of pumping exacerbated the problem?

And 'campaigned' is a strong word when all he did was express his opinion that the addition of a few more parking spaces was good news.

I hope I don't ever have to sit on the table where the fish stall was during the Thursday market.


I don't think it will be compulsory to use this new venture, I'm sure you will be allowed to execise your right to walk past it and into a pub if you want a drink.

Upstairs seating now sold out! There is still standing space downstairs available. Just click the 'area' button and select standing.

Isn't there some local ordinance about drinking in the street in Newbury.

I suspect they'll set up a bar every night, I presume the choice might be more limited than in the pub itself.

I hope I don't ever have to sit on the table where the fish stall was during the Thursday market.

Interesting point.

Is the alcohol actually going to be stored & served from the market place? If so, this isn't a few tables & chairs. Is there going to be a till? Storage?

Or are 'waiters' going to be carrying trays of drinks from the Pub itself?

But won't they be hoping to be selling alcohol at these busy times?


I'm sure they would love to be operating at market times - but surely the space will be filled with market stalls.

Which raises an interesting issue - market stalls pay rent for the space they use; how much are the Town Council going to get from the Snooty Fox?

Presumably it will have to be removed for the markets every Thursday and Saturday and for the Sunday farmers' markets.

Should residents be subsidising a business?
I don't see how we would be subsidising this business.

Why not, it happens with the exterior of the pub every night.

No.  The report says, and so does my previous post, that a temporary canopy is required, in a muted colour, and discreet fixing (similar to the current market fixings), in the floor.

I know there a few flats in the alley and I believe some over the shops by the Kennet centre, but I cannot understand how they would be subsidising this.

A big difference in that having something in the middle of the market place is going to require some sort of secure semi permanent structure? Basically he is opening a new outlet.

At the moment, no-one has tables and chairs IN the Market Place, they only have them round the edge of the Market Place - big difference.


Oooh, do you have some inside info on the workings of the planning dept that the rest of us mere mortals aren't privy to?

If you dont know the difference between the market place and the pavement, it is fortunate the market place is no longer a car park.   We are talking about the big square thing in the middle that has fancy brickwork that cost £80,000 for Portugese builders to put down.

The screens in the market place was a one off for the world cup and permission was granted to late for this to be put into action.  We are now talking about customers in the market place during the summer.  Matt has won a test case, as the Snooty Fox is the furthest business from the market place that would wish to use the facilities.  From memory the stipulations are a canopy in muted colours and discreet fixings for same.


I seem to remember it was to do with cost, not time. At Glastonbury they managed to errect screens in 24hrs for the World Cup.

To an extent, he's asking for the Moon a on a stick.  To be frank: I doubt there's much round here that ticks all his boxes.
