St. Mary's Hospital in Paddington, London are appealing for help in locating the relatives of Kevin Doyle

Published: 6 Jan 20

Kevin Doyle passed away, aged 67, at St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington on Monday, December 2, 2019. Mr Doyle, who resided in Harlesden prior to his death, was born to Irish parents in Birmingham in 1952. He moved back to Carlow in Ireland as a child to live with his grandmother. His mother is believed to have remained in the Birmingham area with a son and daughter. Mr Doyle later served in the Irish Army before moving to London at some point between 1974 and 1976. He found work in England as a machine driver and lorry driver. A popular figure in the local Harlesden community, Mr Doyle was more commonly known as “Mission” to his friends. Hospital staff are trying to track down any relatives Mr Doyle may have in either the UK or Ireland. They remain hopeful of locating surviving relatives in Carlow and Birmingham with Mr Doyle thought to have family members in both regions. Anyone with information on Mr Doyle's family are encouraged to contact on Carmel 00 44 79 7377 7449 if calling from Ireland or 07973777449 from the UK Read More...

Bovingdon Market update

Published: 18 Dec 19

The partner agencies including Dacorum Borough Council, Herts Highways, the Police and the Parish Council have continued to work together, to encourage the operators of the market to implement additional measures in order to deal with the flow of traffic off the Chesham Road and into the site. Following various meetings, Dacorum Borough Council has issued the market operators with a Temporary Stop Notice This has IMMEDIATE effect and requires them to cease the use of the Molyneaux Avenue access/egress for customers. Breaching this could attract an unlimited fine – subject to a successful prosecution. Additionally, a Community Protection Notice (CPN) has been issued in relation to their traffic management and the littering. The CPN requires the operators to submit a detailed traffic management plan which will detail a number of things, including; information of site capacity; enforceable traffic and parking management plan; contingency plan for the site when capacity is reached. Penalties for not complying with the requirements set out in the CPN is that a person or body may be prosecuted. If you are prosecuted and convicted the maximum penalty is a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale (currently ₤2,500), in the case of an individual and an unlimited fine (previously set at £20,000), in the case of a body. Following this coming weekend, the partner agencies will look at the evidence to consider further steps if appropriate – therefore, it would be very helpful if you could provide any photographic evidence you believe would support: a) a breach of the Temporary Stop Notice, b) a breach of the CPN, c) the notion that the market operator has not managed to alleviate the traffic problems or d) that the littering problem persists. This information should be sent to Bovingdon Parish Council at office@bovingdonparishcouncil.gov.uk and / or to Gary Cullum at gc@cullumpublishing.co.uk Read More...
