  • Guilford House Singledge Lane | Coldred | Dover | CT15 5A Seller Insight
    Guilford House Singledge Lane | Coldred | Dover | CT15 5A Seller Insight The house was originally built for us and over the years we have enjoyed not only living in this lovely home but also having the opportunity to keep horses and pigs. However we feel it is now time to downsize and, although we have spent considerably time and effort getting the plans passed for the redevelopment of the barn and yard, we feel it would probably be appropriate to pass this on to a new owner. The property is very conveniently located as it is only just over a mile to Eythorne with a good primary school, heritage railway, village shop and local pub while there is a mainline station at nearby Shepherdswell. It is two miles to Whitfield where you will find a primary school, hairdresser, doctor’s surgery and a vet as well as a post office, a pub, a garage and the Ramada hotel. There is also a village hall that provides a number of activities and you have access to a Tescos superstore and a number of other large, retail outlets that are very close by. Dover includes the port for easy access to the Continent while the town centre has a number of individual shops, bars and restaurants. Motoring enthusiasts can enjoy racing at Lydden circuit and sailors can join the Royal Cinque Ports Yacht Club, while golfers have a variety of choices from the Walmer and Kingsdown Golf Club or Broome Park to the Championship courses at Sandwich and Deal”.* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.

  • Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection
    Topic Paper: Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection Dover District Local Plan Supporting document The Selection of Site Allocations for the Draft Local Plan This paper provides the background to the selection of the proposed housing, gypsy and traveller and employment site allocations for the Draft Local Plan, and sets out the reasoning behind the selection of specific site options within the District’s Regional, District, Rural Service, Local Centres, Villages and Hamlets. Overarching Growth Strategy As part of the preparation of the Local Plan the Council has identified and appraised a range of growth and spatial options through the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) process: • Growth options - range of potential scales of housing and economic growth that could be planned for; • Spatial options - range of potential locational distributions for the growth options. By appraising the reasonable alternative options the SA provides an assessment of how different options perform in environmental, social and economic terms, which helps inform which option should be taken forward. It should be noted, however, that the SA does not decide which spatial strategy should be adopted. Other factors, such as the views of stakeholders and the public, and other evidence base studies, also help to inform the decision. The SA identified and appraised five reasonable spatial options for growth (i.e. the pattern and extent of growth in different locations): • Spatial Option A: Distributing growth to the District’s suitable and potentially suitable housing and employment site options (informed by the HELAA and Economic Land Review). • Spatial Option B: Distributing growth proportionately amongst the District’s existing settlements based on their population.

The work was conducted by members oflhe Resource Planning Team in the Eastem Region of FRCA. The land has been graded in accordance with the published MAFF ALC guidelines and criteria (MAFF, 1988). A description oflhe ALC grades and subgrades is given in Appendix I.

  • William Stukeley's Kentish Studies of Roman and Other Remains
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society WILLIAM STUKELEY'S KENTISH STUDIES OF ROMAN AND OTHER REMAINS PAUL ASHBEE William Stukeley (1687-1765) was a pioneer unmatched in the hist- ory of archaeology, noted for his work on Stonehenge and Avebury, as well as his obsession with the Druids. It is not generally apprec- iated that he made major excursions into Kent and that in his pub- lished works, and many surviving papers, there are details of the prin- cipal Prehistoric, Roman and Mediaeval monuments of the County, as seen by him during the earlier years of the eighteenth century. Furthermore, his closest friends were John Gray, the Canterbury physician, and, from about 1721, Lord Winchelsea, of Eastwell Park. Two members of his antiquarian circle, Sir John Elwill and Sir Samuel Lennard, resided at Beckenham and West Wickham respect- ively, while another, Hercules Ayleway, wrote from 'Merriworth Castle'. Stukeley (Plate I) studied medicine at Cambridge and later in London, at St Thomas's Hospital. He spent seven years in practice in his native Lincolnshire, at Boston, returning to London in 1717. His countryside tours and antiquarian interests, led to the detailed appreciations of Stonehenge and Avebury, their supportive land- scapes and allied monuments, made between 1718 and 1724, for which he is justly famous. In 1717 he became the first Secretary of the Society of Antiquaries of London and wrote in the Minute-Book that 'Without drawing or designing the study of Antiquities or any other science is lame and imperfect'.

Paragraph 56: emphasises that the Government attaches great importance to the design of the built environment.
