Paul Maynard: ...an architecturally fantastic location, but it is part of local history and the architectural built environment of the Minister’s constituency. I am sure my hon. Friend knows the small village of Hartlebury. He is nodding his head; good. The case study states: “The fate of a recently-demolished Morgan garage raises questions over how 20th-century heritage should be better valued and...
Nigel Huddleston: ...competitions of the Culture Recovery Fund, the West Midlands region received around £110m in funding, through awards to over 450 organisations/sites. As examples of funding in Mid-Worcestershire, Hartlebury Castle Preservation Trust received £290,000 across both rounds of funding, and The Mono Box received £107,318 across both rounds of funding. As some examples of funding in...
Nigel Huddleston: ...significant improvements to local infrastructure, including the new Worcestershire Parkway station which will open in 2017. He also worked hard to preserve and restore local heritage assets such as Hartlebury Castle, the Droitwich canals and the Regal Cinema. I will try to serve the kind and generous constituents of Mid Worcestershire as well as Peter did. I am fortunate to represent one...
Peter Luff: ..., Food and Rural Affairs when he will reply substantively to the letter from the hon. Member for Mid Worcestershire of 25 July 2013, acknowledged by his Department on 2 October 2013, about Hartlebury Parish Council and the proposed main burn incinerator.
Peter Luff: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what assessment his Department has made of the financial arrangements for the proposed waste incinerator at Hartlebury, Worcestershire.
the Bishop of Chester: ...will not slip into that sort of allegation. The noble Lord, Lord Deben, made all sorts of allegations, but I noticed that they were of a general kind on the whole. There is no rush. In the case of Hartlebury Castle, there are five years-2007 to 2012-to see whether a local solution can be found. In the case of Auckland Castle, there is and has been no proposal to sell it. There is a...
Chris Mole: .... The year 2010 marks the 40th anniversary of the operation of the Severn Valley railway, which is one of the most popular heritage railways in the UK. The original Severn Valley railway linked Hartlebury near Droitwich with Shrewsbury, and was constructed around 1860. Ten years later, the line was absorbed into the Great Western Railway, and eight years after that a new spur was opened to...
Peter Luff: Does the Minister agree that massive incinerators, such as the one that has been proposed for Hartlebury in my constituency, should play a part in waste disposal only when the maximum possible effort has been made to recycle waste locally first, and that other technologies should be explored before turning to large-scale incineration?

Peter Luff: Can the hon. Gentleman assure me that the financial pressures facing the Church Commissioners will not lead them to any precipitate action in relation to Hartlebury castle, the historic home of the Bishops of Worcester? He will know that discussions are taking place in Worcestershire to ensure that public access to the castle remains and to ensure the continuity of the Hurd library in its...

Peter Luff: ...a detailed grasp of Worcestershire's geography, but it is significant that the Kidderminster Times this week has a letter of protest from Bewdley, and my first telephone call of outrage came from Hartlebury. Evesham must be saved because it provides essential services to the whole county, because closing these wards will endanger patients, and because the proposed cuts will not generate...
Peter Luff: ...exception. They are the London line—the Cotswold line, in my case, via Pershore, Evesham and Honeybourne to Oxford—and the Birmingham line, or rather lines, via Droitwich and Bromsgrove, or via Hartlebury and Kidderminster. This debate is timely for three separate reasons. The first is that the Government are on the verge of assuming responsibility for the Strategic Rail Authority,...
the Bishop of Worcester: ...the expression "religious activities or ceremonies"? Let me offer a hypothetical situation. I decide that it would be good to celebrate the patronal festival of St James, the patronal festival of Hartlebury, with a pageant on the village green. There is present at this event, which includes the singing of hymns and the saying of prayers, someone who is known to be a transgender person and...
Peter Luff: ...from two constituency considerations. First, I have two landfill sites in my constituency. One is a conventional hole in the ground, as referred to by the hon. Member for Southampton, Test, at Hartlebury. The other is not a hole in the ground but a landrise site. A mountain of waste is being built between Wyre Piddle—one can see it clearly from the new bypass—and Throckmorton, the site...
Peter Luff: ...from many letters that I have received on the subject from teachers during the past few weeks and months: Charlie Lupton of St. Barnabas Church of England first and middle school; Jenny Batelen of Hartlebury Church of England first school; Gerry Hughes of Chawson community first school; David Coll of Witton middle school; Gerry Burgess of Simon de Montfort middle school; David Kelly of...
Peter Luff: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what recent assessment he has made of the reliability and punctuality of train services between Worcester and Birmingham via Droitwich Spa and Hartlebury.
Peter Luff: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions if he will make a statement on the timetable for improving road safety on the A449 at Hartlebury.
Peter Luff: It is a great but sad privilege to present the petition of 572 signatories, organised by the Hartlebury 449 safety action group. It is sad because the group came into existence in response to the recent death of a teenage girl on the very dangerous A449 between Kidderminster and Worcester at Hartlebury. The petitioners have seen the middle section of the road become immeasurably safer since...
Peter Luff: ...of Mid-Worcestershire.
