Arnold’s Paviors to celebrate club centenary with clubhouse extension

A Centenary Legacy project conceived by Arnold‘s Paviors RFC back in 2017/18 has burst into life as work on the construction of a new clubhouse extension proceeds.

Graham Turner, Director of Facilities at ‘Pavs’ said: “Covid threw a wet blanket over our Centenary Celebrations not least the development of new changing rooms, which was to be our Legacy Project. This improving on an already great facility as we embark into our second century.”

Graham added “The idea of this project emerged in the 2017/18 season which seemed to give plenty of time to get organised but the year was soon upon us and plans were drawn up.

“Green Belt issues meant we had to downsize our original plans but planning consent was finally received in June 2021 in the midst of the pandemic. Funding dried up at the same time and rising costs meant we were well short of the £300k estimated cost.”

A lengthy process of agreement over VAT recovery also slowed things but Graham negotiated a £100k grant from the RFU to support the project which was key in the project regaining momentum.

Graham added “Work was due to start at the end of the 2022/23 season but unfortunate and unavoidable circumstances put this back and we finally broke ground at the end of July this year. (23).

“The project will be completed for the start of the 2024/25 season following an official opening in August, 2024.”

The official opening next year will also include celebrations of Paviors Sports Club Ltd, the organisation established in 1973 that secured the ground is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.

Paviors Rugby Club play at Burntstump Hill, Arnold, NG5 8PQ and the club runs over twenty teams.

New players are always welcome – girls, boys, men & women, there is a team for all.

Police issue update following hallucinogenic drug Psilocin and THC discovered in a small number of chocolate bars.

Police issue update following hallucinogenic drug Psilocin and THC discovered in a small number of chocolate bars.

Police have reported that a market regularly frequented by Gedling residents has become the centre of a contamination incident.

Nottinghamshire Police have issued an update regarding chocolate bars that were reportedly sold at Mansfield Market.

Chief Inspector Chris Sutcliffe, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “An investigation is in the process of being carried out after multiple people reported falling ill after consuming chocolate purchased in Mansfield last weekend.

“Forensic testing has been carried out of the chocolate recovered by police, with the majority showing no traces of drugs or anything out of the ordinary.

“Quantities of the hallucinogenic drug Psilocin and THC – a substance found in cannabis – were discovered in a small number of the bars, however.

“The small number of people who became unwell after eating the chocolate have all now fully recovered.

“It is really important that anyone who still has any of this chocolate hands it into the police immediately so that it can be further analysed.

“We are confident the affected chocolate was limited to one small batch, which we are aware of, and there is no evidence to suggest it was more widely distributed.

“The chocolate bars in question were reportedly sold from a stand at Mansfield Market on Saturday (25 November) and were wrapped in gold packaging or sold in orange boxes marked ‘Cali-Gold’.

“A 63-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of administering a noxious substance and is currently assisting police with our ongoing inquiries after being released on bail.

“Anyone who bought any of the chocolate and still has it in their possession is asked to contact us on 101, quoting incident 180 of 26 November 2023.”

Tina Potter, Head of Incidents, Food Standards Agency said: “We are working with local authorities, the UK Health Security Agency and Nottinghamshire Police to investigate an incident following reports of illness after eating chocolate bought from Mansfield Market in Nottinghamshire. The chocolate was both labelled as ‘Cali-Gold’ and unbranded.

“If you have purchased chocolate matching this description, it should not be consumed but instead handed in to the police.

“If you have already eaten it and have developed symptoms, then you should urgently seek medical attention from your GP or contact 111 online / phone 111.”

Happy about bid rejection

I don’t think I am alone in being happy about the council’s Levelling Up money proposal getting rejected.

I was very angry to see the money would again have been spent in Arnold. A new AMP building has just been created at our expense and still they want to spend more on the only town in Gedling that seems to get money.

Why does Arnold need an IMPROVED cinema and swimming pool? Most towns haven’t even got one!

I think any new bid should be created with money only going to those areas that need urgent improvement – Carlton, Calverton and Netherfield. I hope councillors agree and get to work.

Green campaigner should ‘mind his own business’

I read your article ‘Climate group issues major health warning to anyone with wood burning stove in their home‘ and think that Roger Critchley should mind his own business.

I own a stove but don’t have a car yet still I feel I am being made responsible for climate change – if it even exists.

I have no intention of giving this stove up as it gives me much-needed comfort in the winter.

Where does Roger Critchley live? In a wooden hut in the forest – living off the land? Of course not. He has a home that uses heating, gas and electric like everyone else.

You know what they say about people in glass houses.

Not convinced by engine pollution plan

In response to Matthew Latham ‘Letters: Switch off engines’, I am also in favour for reducing pollution but cars queuing in traffic getting the blame – not so sure. All cars have low emissions now so for turning engines off – it’s a no for me!

Tired of political witch hunts

Why does there seem to be an new obsession with having inquiries into past mistakes or wrongdoings by Governments, such as the Covid inquiry, which is no more than a political witch hunt.

The past is riddled with politicians who have lied to the public. The greatest of all was Winston Churchill who lied to the public to get them rallied round the country’s difficulties and get them to believe more strongly about the country’s needs.

Will there be another inquiry into Tony Blair and his henchman into their lies that took us to war and cost the lives of innocent people and our service personnel with their fabricated stories about weapons of mass destruction?

Very doubtful even though their lies are still creating problems worldwide.

There are still people getting slaughtered daily by their actions but we are learning that the media make sure that only the actions of certain parties can be castigated.

Lewis Bradley,
Arnold

Work to start in New Year on £1.25m scheme to widen path along A612 at Colwick

Work to start in New Year on £1.25m scheme to widen path along A612 at Colwick

Work will start in the New Year on widening a path alongside the A612 in a bid to encourage residents in Colwick to walk and cycle more.

The scheme will see the path alongside the Colwick Loop Road between First Avenue and Private Road No.1 widened using land from the verge to create a three-metre-wide shared use walking and cycling path.

It will be funded using £1.25million from Nottingham City Council’s Transforming Cities Fund allocation and will connect the area to other upgrades made from the city centre to Nottingham Racecourse.

This funding comes from the Department for Transport and can only be used for sustainable transport schemes.

Fifteen new trees will be planted as part of the scheme to replace 17 which will need to be removed to allow works to take place. Eleven of the trees requiring removal are susceptible to ash dieback and two others are considered to be dead specimens.

The council has said that no road closures will be needed throughout the 23-week construction period but that narrow lanes will be in place to ‘allow works to take place safely’.

The final four weeks of construction will require temporary traffic signals to be in place and further details about the timings of these will be given in the New Year.

Works are expected to start in February 2024.

Councillor Neil Clarke MBE, Cabinet Member for Transport and Environment at Nottinghamshire County Council, said: “This is great news for walking and cycling in the area as the newly resurfaced and widened path will improve safety for all.

“Currently, the path is narrow and so widening it will improve the ease of use for existing users while also encouraging new users to make use of this facility.

“The path is a great link for communities getting to work or shopping at Victoria Retail Park and it is great news that these works can take place without significantly impacting on motorists travelling along the A612.

“As we will be cutting into the current verge in order to construct the widened path, we will need to remove some trees to be able to do this but I would like to reassure residents that most of the trees being removed as part of these works are susceptible to ash die back which would present further maintenance and safety issues in the future.

“We know that some traffic management will be required for the final four weeks of the 23 weeks of the construction and we will make sure that these temporary signals will be in place during off-peak periods only.”

Pictured: Propsed site plan on Westdale Lane (Courtesy of Gedling Borough Council planning)

A Design and Access (D & A) statement provided in support of the full planning application states that the site is adjacent a small independent builders merchants and Westdale Junior School on the opposite side of Westdale Lane and that Westdale Lane is a busy link road
through a mainly residential location interspersed with occasional commercial and retail units.

The D & A statement also states that the applicant has identified a strong demand for a modern high quality car washing service with fully trained and uniformed staff supported with a Tyre retailing facility and public electrical vehicle charging facility and that a single storey building incorporating reception, office and tyre changing areas is to be retained and re clad. This is also reflected in the planning application which states that the existing gross internal floorspace of 204sq.m is equivalent to the total gross new internal floorspace
proposed.

It is also proposed that the site will be fenced in using 3m High powder coated steel framed 12mm toughened glass panels with signage detailing to the upper levels with vehicular access from Westdale Lane only with egress from the site using the Ferndale Avenue exit only.

Public electric charging facilities will be positioned to the rear of the building away from the jet washing facility.
