Stratford-on-Avon District Council - July 2016 Stratford-on-Avon Core Strategy 2011-31 Section 1 Context 1.1 Introduction – a new Strategy for Stratford‐on‐Avon District 1.1.1 The Government, through the Localism Act and the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), has given local communities the freedom to establish and address their own local growth requirements for employment, housing and other land uses through the plan-making process. This Core Strategy provides the strategic context for development decisions up to the year 2031 and will be subject to regular reviews during this period to ensure it remains relevant and accurate. The purpose of the Core Strategy is as followss: To provide a spatial vision for Stratford-on-Avon District to 2031. To set out a Development Strategy and planning policiies, including the allocation of strategic sites for employment and housing, and to guide infrastructure and service provision. This will help to promote economic prosperity in accordance with the Council’s Business and Enterprise Strategy and the Strategic Economic Plan (SEP) published by the Coventry and Warwickshire Local Enterprise Partnership. A locally developed plan ensures that: Future housing development is set at a level that meets established local housing needs, supports ecoonomic objectives and reflects the capacity of the area to accommodate growth. Business and commercial activity is enabled in order to support and foster the growth and competitiveness of the District’s economy and to provide more jobs in the area. The infrastructure required to support future development is fully considered, ensuring that appropriate provision is made and improvements identified that will enhance the quality of life for all residents and businesses. 1.1.2 Understandably, local communitties and visitors value and wish to protect those historic and environmental qualities of the area that have led many to locate themselves or their businesses in southern Warwickshire over the years. This Core Strategy gives appropriate weigght to varying issues, such as the need to balance economic growth and housing provision with protecting and enhancing the local environment; and reflects other local pressures, such as an ageeing population and inward migration. The Strategy pays regard to a wide range of related aims, objectives and policies developed both nationally and locally. 1.1.3 In the course of preparing this strategy the Council has fully considered and responded to the need to tacklee strategic cross-boundary issues that relate to the interests of the wider area in which the District is located. It has done this principally through well-established structures within the Coventry and Warwickshire sub-region and via specific working relationships with a further nine authorities with which the District has a common boundary. 1.1.4 There is a significant risk, without an adopted plan, that the atttractiveness of the District means it will be subjeect to ongoing proposals for inappropriate and Stratford-on-Avon District Council - July 2016 1 Stratford-on-Avon Core Strategy 2011-31 Section 1 Context – 1.1 Introduction speculative development that may nevertheless be approved by the Planning Inspectorate or the Secretary of State on appeal. Managing this pressure through the use of agreed policies and proposals will enable the Council to resist inappropriate development and guide appropriate development to the right locations. 1.1.5 This new strategy recognises and responds to ongoing changes to the planning system. The Localism Act was given Royal Assent on 15 November 2011. It argues strongly for a greater emphasis on grassroots planning. In accordance with powers conferred by the Localism Act the Secretary of State has now formally revoked the West Midlands Regional Spatial Strategy. The planning policy context for this strategy is therefore focused on the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) as published on 27 March 2012. The NPPF identifies a wide range of fundamental issues that need to be taken into account during the preparation of a Core Strategy and sets out the following expectations that the strategy should meet: To set out a clear economic vision and strategy for the area that positively and proactively encourages sustainable economic growth. To use a robust and up-to-date evidence base to ensure that it meets the full, objectively assessed needs for market and affordable housing in the housing market area, as far as is consistent with the policies set out in the NPPF, including identifying key sites that are critical to the delivery of the housing strategy over the plan period. To set criteria, or identify strategic sites, that will help to encourage local and inward investment to match the strategy and meet anticipated needs over the plan period. To maintain a five-year supply of deliverable housing sites with a buffer of either 5% or 20% depending on past performance. To recognise a duty to co-operate between public bodies. To apply a soundness test to ensure that it is ‘positively prepared’. 1.1.6 The Council’s economic vision recognises both the largely rural nature of the District and the fact that its strategic location provides the opportunity for targeted inward investment. The area is entrepreneurial and the need to develop small and home-based businesses is understood. The roll out of superfast broadband is critical in this context. Specific proposals to accommodate small scale business development will be identified in a separate site allocations plan, building on the aspirations set out in Parish and Neighbourhood Plans where such plans exist and are up to date. There is also an acknowledgement that this Core Strategy needs to provide a platform to help strengthen the tourism sector, ensure the District’s economy is strong and diverse and manage the provision of additional retail and commercial floorspace. By identifying land to accommodate both a significant expansion of the Jaguar Land Rover presence and expansion of the Aston Martin Lagonda presence at Gaydon, the Core Strategy supports the focus on advanced manufacturing and engineering consistent with the sub- regional vision established by the Coventry and Warwickshire Local Enterprise Partnership under the SEP.

  • The Morris Brothers(Sons of Charles Henry and Emily Morris)

    The Morris Brothers(Sons of Charles Henry and Emily Morris)

    Great War in the Villages Project The Morris Brothers (sons of Charles Henry and Emily Morris). Prior to the commencement of the Great War there were two families that shared the same surname of Morris living within the parishes of Wellesbourne. The family of Henry Charles Morris and Emily, his wife, were relative newcomers to the area whereas John Henry and Alice Morris could trace their roots within Wellesbourne to at least the 18th century. It appears that the families were not closely related. Entries in the local South Warwickshire newspapers during the years of the Great War suggested that there were two members of Henry Charles’s family that served in that war, his sons Harry and Jesse. Henry Charles Morris was born during the early months of 1867 in the south Oxfordshire village of Horspath. He married Emily Pinn in Headington, Oxfordshire during the spring or early summer of 1892. She was also a native of the county. Recordsi suggest that the couple had 11 children yet only 6 survived infancy. Harry Morris. Private, Oxford & Bucks Light Infantry (Believed). Harry was born on the 13th October 1894 in Headington Oxfordshire and subsequently baptised in the Holy Trinity Church of Headington Quarry on 25th November of the same year. The family then appeared to move around the country possibly as his father sought work. They arrived in Wellesbourne around January 1905 when his son Harry was registered to join the village schoolii, the family having previously lived in Chandlers Ford, Hampshire. The 1911 census, the last prior to the commencement of the Great War, indicates that Harry, then aged 16 years worked as a General Labourer.

    Technical note Project: Stratford-on-Avon To: Warwickshire County Council Additional Road Capacity Subject: Evidence Review From: Atkins Date: May 2016 cc: 1. Introduction 1.1. Background to the Study Atkins has been commissioned by Warwickshire County Council (WCC) to undertake a study to evaluate the impact of additional highway capacity in Stratford-on-Avon. This is in response to a number of existing transport issues within the area and to take account of the likely impact of Stratford on Avon District Council’s proposals for potential housing and employment growth sites for the Local Development Framework up to 2031. The study will also assess whether there are opportunities for reducing traffic dominance in the town centre (e.g. on Bridge Street, High Street and Clopton Bridge) as a result of the provision of additional highway capacity. A number of discrete tasks have been identified as being required for this Study. A list of the tasks is shown below: (i) Stage 1 - Evidence Review (ii) Stage 2 - Road Capacity Options (iii) Stage 3 - Assessment of Options (iv) Stage 4 - Cost assessment (v) Stage 5 - Cost-benefit Analysis (vi) Stage 6 - High level environmental assessment (vii) Stage 7 - Town Centre Benefits (viii) Stage 8 - Recommended Approach This Technical Note presents the findings from Stage 1 – Evidence Review. 1.2. Purpose of the Evidence Review A review of pre-existing datasets and documentation has been undertaken to identify the existing and future transport related issues and problems affecting Stratford-on-Avon. The aim of this review is to summarise the network conditions and local travel demand behaviours relevant to Stratford-on-Avon.
