Long-term exposure to air pollution has been shown to reduce life expectancy, due to its impact on cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and lung cancer. Many everyday activities such as transport, industrial processes, farming, energy generation and domestic heating can have a detrimental effect on air quality. The annual status report is fundamental to ensuring the monitoring of trends and identification of areas of local air pollution exposure. The cumulative effect of a range of interventions has the greatest potential to reduce local air pollution and improve population health, as such the annual status report and associated action plans provide an opportunity to engage a range of partners.

  • Castleton Parish Statement (Draft)

    Castleton Parish Statement (Draft)

    Castleton Parish Statement (draft) Introduction Castleton is a vibrant village in the heart of the magnificent Peak District National Park. It has a rich blend of history in the centre of one of the most popular locations for walkers, whether they are casual walkers or experienced fell trekkers. There is a range of pubs, cafes, and other eating places to suit everyone's tastes during and at the end of an active day. Geography Castleton village is situated at the head of the Hope Valley. It straddles the white peak (limestone to the south) and the dark peak (millstone grit to the north). It is right at the heart of some of the most attractive scenery in the Peak District National Park (PDNP). Mam Tor and Lose Hill look down on the village and the iconic Winnats Pass which is on one of two roads in/out of the village. Winnats Pass provides access to the west – Buxton, Chapel-en-le- Frith, Manchester and Manchester Airport. The other road in/out of Castleton is down the Hope Valley to Hope village, Hathersage, Sheffield and Derby. Castleton Parish Statement (draft) History Looking down on Castleton is Peveril Castle which dates from the 11th Century and was built to protect the local lead mining and hunting. Lead mining was carried out by the Romans. A small settlement (Pechesers) was recorded at Peak Cavern in 1086 (The Domesday Book) and the planned village was probably laid out in the 12th century. Villagers There are between 500 and 600 permanent residents, there are many elderly residents and only a few families with children.
