The existing permission allows for extraction to a limited depth and requires the site to be restored to low level amenity/agricultural use. However the Applicant urgently needs to extract deeper reserves, which are not currently consented, in order to supply the local Parkhouse and Chesterton factory with specific materials for brick making purposes. A more detailed explanation of the need for the additional reserves is given in chapter 6 of this statement, but in short, without access to these deeper materials the Company will face production problems, which could have serious consequences for Ibstock’s future operations in North Staffordshire. 1.2.2 Ibstock is therefore seeking planning permission to excavate the quarry to a depth of 36m AOD, which will release valuable reserves which are effectively sterilised by the current consent. This would enable the Company to extract up to 15.5 million tonnes of clay, which includes 4.5 million tonnes already consented, over a period of 30 years. This would provide long term security of supply to Ibstock’s factories. 1.2.3 It is not intended to alter any of the existing working methods at the quarry and apart from a minor “land swap” to work the quarry more effectively, the operational area of the quarry will remain the same. It is intended to restore the site to a large water feature and therefore no waste materials will be imported as part of the quarry’s restoration. 1.2.4 The planning application documents are divided into three parts. Part 1 contains the planning application forms and certificates whilst Part 2 (Chapters 1-6) of this NL06919\J01 1 August 2005 Ibstock Brick 1996 Limited Knutton Quarry submission refers to geology, planning history, development proposals, planning policy and justification. Part 3; the Environmental Statement (ES) contains the results of an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) into the main potential environmental impacts of the development proposals. 1.3 The Applicant Company 1.3.1 Ibstock Brick 1996 Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of CRH plc. Ibstock is the second largest supplier of bricks in the UK, with an annual capacity in the order of one billion bricks per year. 1.3.2 As a result of an acquisition programme in the 1990’s Ibstock took control of Knutton Quarry in August 1996. NL06919\J01 2 August 2005 Ibstock Brick 1996 Limited Knutton Quarry 2 SITE DESCRIPTION 2.1 Location and Surroundings 2.1.1 Knutton Quarry is located just to the west of Knutton village and immediately to the north of Silverdale, approximately 2km west of the centre of Newcastle-under- Lyme in Staffordshire. 2.1.2 The nearest residential properties to the quarry lie approximately 40m to the east on Oak Road. There are also residential properties approximately 80m to the south in Silverdale. Access to the site is gained via Church Lane and Brock Way to the southeast. This access is also shared by a royal mail sorting depot, which lies 100m to the south east of the quarry. Agricultural land lies to the north and west of the site. 2.2 Geology 2.2.1 The site is a westerly extension of the Mid-lower Etruria Formation workings at Knutton. The Etruria Formation is a sequence of predominantly red beds with mottled horizons, thin grey/black shales and often lensoid sandstones. The material comprises flood debris deposited on a broad coastal plain stretching from a landform to the south, around Birmingham, to open seas off the north of England. The sandstones mark the course of rivers, and usually display a fining upwards sequence through siltstones and silty mudstones. The silty mudstones can be utilised in heavy clayware manufacture given a period of weathering to break down the coarser particles. The red coloration of the mudstones is characteristic of deposition on land leaving the mud exposed to air, producing oxidation of the iron compounds. Grey/black coloration indicates deposition under water which prevents oxidation of the iron so that the red coloration characteristics of the Etruria Formation does not develop. 2.2.2 All of these rock types are present in the existing Knutton pit and the proposed deepening as proved by boreholes sunk in 1992, 1995 and 2004. The seams vary significantly in thickness and lateral persistence, often taking a lensoid form. However the seam structure is simple, comprising of a gently dipping syncline (downfold) plunging to the south at around 12 degrees. There is the possibility of a north-west/south-east trending fault in the middle of the site, but evidence is inconclusive and the effects are not greatly relevant in terms of reserves. Where the existing site has not been excavated, it is overlain by boulder clay of variable thickness up to a maximum depth of 3 metres. NL06919\J01 3 August 2005 Ibstock Brick 1996 Limited Knutton Quarry 3 PLANNING HISTORY 3.1.1 Planning permission first granted for quarrying at Knutton in 1947 with the issue of an Interim Development Order (IDO), and operations continued under this IDO permission until 1994, with the granting of a new consent. 3.1.2 The consent (N92/550) extended the IDO site westwards into an area known as Gorsty Bank. It represents a total reserve of some 5.5 million tonnes, approximately 4.5m tonnes of which still remains to be worked. 3.1.3 In August 2002 a further planning permission was granted (N92/550V2) to vary a number of conditions to reflect the new access into the site, allow further extraction in the old

North Staffordshire Conurbation: Assessment of historical significance 3 FOREWORD The North Staffordshire conurbation is unique. Its historical development - based on mining, ceramics and other manufacturing industries - is unparalleled in any major urban area in the UK. However, these origins were both a boon and a bane for the area. On the one hand they gave North Staffordshire an economic purpose and vitality, which began in the very vanguard of the industrial revolution and created a wealth of world- renowned products whose enduring prestige continues to attract many thousands of visitors each year.
