Comment on Montpelier Beanfeast: Saturday 8th September by Shiona

Montpelier Park is on St Andrew’s Road in Montpelier – Google maps doesn’t have it specifically but it’s towards the bottom (south west end) of the road on the left hand side as you look up the hill. On Google, that’s between the Old England and the Old Vicarage.
The park is wheelchair accessible from the bottom entrance, but there are no bus stops immediately outside. The nearest stop would be on Cheltenham Road outside the new Well launderette (I think Nine Tree Hill is the name of the stop) or Boston Tea Party, depending on which way you’d be coming from.

Where IS Montpelier Park? I used Google Earth but it could not locate it at all. I am in a wheelchair: can I get an accessible bus to it, wherever it might be?

Comment on The state of Montpelier’s energy by Jon Walker

I found the report very interesting , especially the section on solar panels on page 22 which indicated that there are 1149 suitable roofs for PV and solar hot water in Montpelier. The Energy Fair on Saturday was very good, but we did keep having to correct people who commented words to the effect that “Its a pity the Feed In Tariff has finished”. The truth is that it is very much alive and kicking and at current FIT rates will provide in excess of a 12% return on investment on a south facing unshaded roof. However don’t hang around for too long as the FIT will be changed again from July 1st. OK you will have to have an EPC rating and achieve a ‘D’ but this will normally be paid for by your PV installer. Anyway its a good thing to do so that you can also look into your other options, such as a gas condensing boiler, heating controls and insulation measures.
