  • The Stratford Lane Roman Road and Other Early Routes on Mendip
    Proc, Univ. Bristol Spelaeol. Soc, 1992 19 (2), 151-182 THE STRATFORD LANE ROMAN ROAD AND OTHER EARLY ROUTES ON MENDIP by R.G..I.WILLIAMS ABSTRACT The existence of the Stratford Lane Road was first suggested in 1906- Opinions have differed firstly as lo us course from Ihe Mendip hilltop into Ihe Chew Valley and secondly as to Us function. This road and some medieval mutes in the ure;i wliidi might have Roman or earlier origins are examined in detail in this paper which also queries Ihe theory that the River Chew was used to transport Roman lead. Fieldwork was aided by the study of documents dating from ihe .sixteenth century held locally and in Ihe United Stales »f America. Fresh information on some archaeological sites on Mendip is given, including newly identified round-barrows, old boundary stones, a pillow mound and Ihe boundary of a medieval warren. INTRODUCTION In all ages since the neolithic farming communities became settled there has been a need for both local communication between habitation sites and access to resources. The elaborately constructed wooden trackways, dated to the Neolithic, Bronze Age and Iron Age periods, found in the peat moors south of the Mendip Hills, suggest a planned communication system with connections to other areas. Iron Age settlement on Ihe central Mendip plateau in caves, enclosures and hill-forts is confined to the edges of the escarpment but there is a dispersed pattern of farmsteads in the surrounding valleys, There is evidence of bronze and iron working at these .sites but there was only a limited use of lead in the Iron Age.

  • North Somerset and Mendip Bats Special Area of Conservation (SAC) Guidance on Development: Supplementary Planning Document
    North Somerset and Mendip Bats Special Area of Conservation (SAC) Guidance on Development: Supplementary Planning Document Adopted January 2018 (Photo: Frank Greenaway. Courtesy Vincent Wildlife Trust) 1 This supplementary planning document (SPD) was adopted by North Somerset Council on 9 January 2018. The SPD contains guidance on development regarding impacts on the North Somerset and Mendip Bats Special Area of Conservation (SAC), one of four European sites (sites of international importance for wildlife) in North Somerset. It was designated because of its importance for Greater and Lesser Horseshoe Bats. The guidance was jointly produced by the Council, Natural England and Somerset local authorities. In May 2017 the guidance, (just titled “North Somerset and Mendip Bats Special Area of Conservation (SAC) Guidance on Development”), was approved by Natural England in May 2017. The guidance, bearing the logos of Natural England, Somerset County Council, North Somerset Council, Sedgemoor District Council and Mendip District Council, was published on Somerset County Council’s website. Subsequent to that, North Somerset Council felt it would be beneficial for the guidance to be converted into a formal supplementary planning document (SPD) for North Somerset. The National Planning Policy Framework (glossary) indicates that “supplementary planning documents add further detail to the policies in the Local Plan. They can be used to provide further guidance for development on specific sites, or on particular issues, such as design. Supplementary planning documents are capable of being a material consideration in planning decisions but are not part of the development plan”. Therefore, as part of the process towards becoming an SPD for North Somerset, public consultation on a Draft SPD document, incorporating the guidance, was undertaken between 20 October and 2 December 2017.

  • Our Top 20 Reserves Access: Paths Can Be Muddy, Slippery and Steep-Sided
    18 Weston Big Wood Grid ref: ST 452 750. Nearest postcode: BS20 8JY Weston Big Wood is one of Avon’s largest ancient woodlands. In springtime, the ground is covered with wood anemones, violets and masses of bluebells. Plants such as herb paris and yellow archangel together with the rare purple gromwell, show that this is an ancient woodland. The wood is very good for birds, including woodpecker, nuthatch, and tawny owl. Bats also roost in the trees and there are badger setts. Directions: From B3124 Clevedon to Portishead road, turn into Valley Road. Park in the lay-by approx 250 metres on right, and walk up the hill. Steps lead into the wood from the road. Our top 20 reserves Access: Paths can be muddy, slippery and steep-sided. Please keep away from the quarry sides. 19 Weston Moor Grid ref: ST 441 741. Nearest postcode: BS20 8PZ This Gordano Valley reserve has open moorland, species-rich rhynes, wet pasture and hay meadows. It is full of many rare plants such as cotton grass, marsh pennywort and lesser butterfly orchid, along with nationally scarce invertebrates such as the hairy dragonfly and ruddy darter. During the spring and summer the fields attract lapwing, redshank and snipe. Other birds such as little owl, linnet, reed bunting and skylark also breed in the area. Sparrowhawk, buzzard and green woodpecker are regularly recorded over the reserve. Directions: Parking is restricted and the approach to the reserve is hampered by traffic on the B3124 being particularly fast-moving. When parking please do not block entrances to farms, fields or homes.

    Neighbourhood Plan 2015 to 2029 Made Version Plan made on: 9th September 2015 Updated: 20/12/2018 1 It has come to our attention that there was an error with the ‘made’ version of Stowey Sutton Neighbourhood Plan (NDP) which was previously available on our website. An incorrect version if the NDP was uploaded, which did not incorporate the examiners modifications. The version which was used for the community referendum did incorporate the examiners modifications. The community subsequently voted in favour of the referendum version of the plan. The referendum version was also appended to the report taken to Cabinet on the basis of which the NDP was made. This version (Updated 20/12/2018) is therefore based on the Referendum NDP which incorporates the examiners modifications, on the basis of which the NDP was made 2 Contents Contents ...................................................................................................................................................................... 3 Foreword .................................................................................................................................................................. 11 Stowey Sutton Parish .................................................................................................................................. 12 The Neighbourhood Plan Policies .................................................................................................................. 13 Introduction and Background .........................................................................................................................
