Local people, businesses and other
stakeholders are being invited to have
their say on the Draft Manor House
Conservation and Management Plan.
It will inform future decisions affecting the use,
restoration, maintenance and general management
of the prominent historic building, which forms
part of The Green, Sidcup, Conservation Area.
Prepared by the London Borough of Bexley, the
Draft Plan considers potential future uses for the
building, their compatibility with the historic
building and any risk of impacts on areas of significance.
It considers whether there is any potential for accommodating new development within
the site, in a form that is sensitive to and compatible with the historic building and its setting,
which could help to enable the restoration and
conservation of the Manor House.
Cllr Linda Bailey, Bexley’s Cabinet Member for
Regeneration and Housing, told the Chronicle:
“The Conservation and Management Plan will
guide the future use of the Manor House, while
safeguarding the listed structure and respecting its
location close to open spaces and residential areas.
I hope that everyone with an interest in this important feature of historic Sidcup will give their
views during the consultation.
”
“We’ve never been against incineration
of waste” said Cllr.
Gareth Bacon “we
simply didn’t want an incinerator in
our back yard and fought hard against
having one for sixteen years”!
Well now everything has come full circle and
Bexley Council having spent over £1m fighting
the incinerator project have signed a twenty five
year long contract with the owners Cory Environmental Ltd to burn up to 70,000 tonnes of
our waste which starts on the lst January 2011.
Thanks to a massive effort from residents our
rubbish is sorted and paper for example earns
the council up to £50 a ton.
Plastic bottles are
recycled now and glass is as well.
Council officer Mike Frizoni told the Chronicle
Bexley residents had achieved a remarkable
record recycling 50% of their waste well ahead
of the planned targets.
Despite the heavy local opposition from both
residents and politicians from both the Labour
and Conservative parties everyone now seems
to accept with good grace that it is the place for
Bexley to take their waste rather than the landfill site at Rainham.
Transporting up to 70,000
tonnes of waste will mean at least 14,000 extra
vehicle movements a year.
Access by road will
mainly be via the Bronze Age Way to Picardy
Manor Way then to Norman Road and the
marsh site of the incinerator.

Eighty year old
wins jackpot!
It was a special night at a local bingo club in
Bexleyheath when a lucky local player scooped
over £30,000 on the High 5 jackpot.
The winner, an unnamed 80 year old woman
from Woolwich was playing bingo with her
friend when she won the full house prize of
£6,500 - and was shocked to find she’d also hit
the High 5 jackpot, taking her winnings up to
over £33,000.
Duane Curtis, a spokesman for the club commented on the win: “The lady who won is a regular at a Woolwich club and decided to come to
Bexleyheath with her friend to play bingo in different
surroundings.
This enormous win follows the introduction
to the Bexleyheath club of the cutting edge
new High 5 game which offers a unique
chance for customers to play for a rollover
jackpot.
With better prize money and even
more chances to win, the linked High 5 game
heralds the future of UK bingo.
Bexley miss out of
