Topic Paper – Settlement Hierarchy Review Working Together Babergh and Mid Suffolk Joint Local Plan Topic Paper – Settlement Hierarchy Review November 2020 Babergh and Mid Suffolk Settlement Hierarchy Review 2020 1. Introduction 1.1 This Topic Paper accompanies the Settlement Hierarchy section of the Babergh and Mid Suffolk Joint Draft Local Plan (2020). This topic paper supersedes previous Settlement Hierarchy Review Topic Papers and Services and Facilities Audit produced by the Councils in August 2017 and July 2019. 1.2 The purpose of this Topic Paper is to present additional detail and context behind the new Settlement Hierarchy as proposed by the Joint Local Plan. 1.3 As part of the preparation of the new Joint Local Plan for Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils, a review of the settlement hierarchy was carried out to reflect changes that have occurred over recent years and to ensure that the settlements are appropriately categorised in relation to the services and facilities they provide. 1.4 This study collates information on the services and facilities availability of villages in both districts. Comments received during the Joint Local Plan consultation 2017 and 2019 have been considered in the production of this Topic Paper and the resulting Settlement Hierarchy in the Babergh and Mid Suffolk Joint Local Plan. 1.5 Babergh and Mid Suffolk currently have different settlement hierarchies as set out in the Babergh Core Strategy (2014) and Mid Suffolk Core Strategy (2008). The Joint Local Plan seeks to provide a single hierarchy across both Districts, and this Topic Paper classifies ‘Core Villages’, ‘Hinterland Villages’ and ‘Hamlets’. The classification is based on a simple scoring system (which is explained below), to indicate their relative sustainability as locations for development. Settlements that do not have ten or more well related dwellings have not been identified in the settlement hierarchy. Such settlements are addressed in the Hamlets and Clusters of Development in the Countryside policy in the Joint Local Plan. 1.6 The identification of towns and urban areas (as per the Babergh Core Strategy 2014 and Mid Suffolk Core Strategy 2008) will remain unchanged. These are listed below: o Eye o Pinewood o Hadleigh o Stowmarket o Needham Market o Sudbury 1.7 Additionally, the identification of the Ipswich Fringe Area will remain unchanged. The Babergh and Mid Suffolk Ipswich fringe areas have historically been designated as growth areas in recognition of the cross-boundary sphere of influence from the county town of Ipswich as a regional service centre. 2. Methodology 2.1 A scoring system has been developed (detailed in Table 1) to rank each settlement. The aim is to use a simple points system, to provide a general understanding of the level of facilities and services available to each settlement. Points are awarded to settlements if the service/facility is within, adjoining to or well related to that settlement. The weighted scoring system is based on the relative importance of each facility available within a settlement, in that some services are more essential and used more frequently than others, such as a primary school or a convenience store. As these are important facilities that reduce the need to travel by car and support the vitality of the local community, they are given a score of 2 points. Other facilities such 1 Babergh and Mid Suffolk Settlement Hierarchy Review 2020 as a village hall or a recreation ground add to diversity and help build communities. Such facilities score 1 point, as they do not contribute as significantly to people’s day to day needs. 2.2 This Topic Paper reviews services and facilities available to a settlement rather than a parish. As such a larger settlement may be classified as a ‘Core Village’ and a smaller settlement or cluster of dwellings may be classified as a ‘Hamlet’ within the same parish. 2.3 The following scores are used for the settlement hierarchy review: • 18 points plus = Core Village • 9 points to 17 points = Hinterland Village • 0 points to 8 points = Hamlet Village. Table 1: Settlement Hierarchy Methodology Banking / Post Office / Retail Convenience Store 2 points Provides an essential service to a community and reduces the need to travel. Post Office 1 point Provides an important local service, but is not generally used on a daily basis Food & Drink 1 point Food and drink outlets and public houses are often considered to Outlets and Public each be a hub of a community, especially in rural settlements. Houses A maximum of 5 points can be awarded per settlement. Other Retail 1 point Bakers / Butchers / Hairdressers & Salons / Newsagents / ATM / each Fuel Station. These are relatively important services that would be used regularly by the community. 1 point is awarded per service type (i.e. two butchers would only score a settlement one point) Education Pre-school 1 point Local provision of pre-school places will reduce the need to travel for families with young children. Primary School 2 points Primary schools also provide an important local provision to families. Additionally, they can act as a local community hub. Secondary School, 1 point Secondary schools, sixth form campuses and further education Sixth Form/ institutions often serve a wider community and are therefore Further Education attributed with 1 point. Employment – Distance measured as travelled by road or footpaths Employment 1 or 2 Employment opportunities close to where people live can reduce opportunities points the need to travel or the distance travelled. 2 points are awarded within 3.1 miles / for proximity to strategic employment sites (as defined by the Joint 5km Local Plan1), and 1 point for proximity to smaller scale employment sites. Community Centres Village Hall 1 point Village or community halls are a valuable facility and contribute towards the vitality of communities. They are not considered to be an essential day to day facility and are scored 1 point. Place of Worship 1 point As with village halls, places of worship can act as a hub for the community.A maximum of 1 point per settlement is awarded for places of worship. 1 Includes sites in Acton, Eye, Great Blakenham, Hadleigh, Needham Market, Sproughton, Stowmarket, Sudbury, Wherstead and Woolpit (Sites defined through strategic employment policy in Joint Local Plan). 2 Babergh and Mid Suffolk Settlement Hierarchy Review 2020 Library 1 point Permanent libraries contribute to the vitality of a community. ‘Mobile libraries’ are excluded from this assessment. Medical Doctors Surgery or 2 points Provides a vital service to many communities, particularly with an Pharmacy ageing demographic. Dentist 1 point Dentists are generally used less frequently than doctors, and as such score 1 point. Public Transport Bus Service 2 points Bus service providing access to daily peak-time services (Monday to Friday – 7:00-9:00; 16:00-18:00) to and from a higher order settlement, provide a sustainable transport option by reducing the need to travel by car. Rail Service 2 points Rail service providing access to daily peak-time services (Monday to Friday – 7:00-9:00; 16:00-18:00) to and from a higher order settlement, provide a sustainable transport option by reducing the need to travel by car. Recreation Recreation 1 point Recreation grounds, sports clubs and play areas offer important Grounds / Play recreational opportunities, allowing communities a safe place to Area / Sport Clubs play in and enjoy the outdoors. Sport / Leisure 1 point Sports and leisure centres often provide a range of activities and Centre classes. Allotment 1 point Allotments can play an important hub within the community, and can contribute towards a sense of community and mental/physical health. Internet Connectivity Super-Fast 2 points Internet connectivity and the availability and speed of Broadband Broadband is an important issue for many rural communities, particularly (Up to 76Mb) given the rise in online shopping and opportunities for working from home. Speeds were assessed using the Better Broadband Standard Speed 1 point Suffolk website (www.betterbroadbandsuffolk.com/). If any part of Broadband the settlement has access to “super-fast speed” then it shall score (Up to 17Mb) 2 points. 1 point is awarded for standard speed broadband. Proximity to Other Settlements – Distance measured as travelled by road or footpaths Proximity to a 2 points Larger settlements are more likely to provide a greater level of Town/Urban services and facilities, with smaller neighbouring settlements often Centre looking to compliment this offering. Being within close proximity to (within 3.1 miles/ a town/urban centre can reduce the need to travel long distances 5km) to access employment opportunities and/or services and facilities. Includes towns/urban areas outside of the Districts – namely Diss, Framlingham, Harleston, Ipswich. Proximity to a Core 1 point As above Core Villages provide a good level of services and Village facilities and being with close proximity to a Core Village can (within 1.2 miles reduce the need to travel long distances. Core Villages tend to 2km) have a lower service provision that towns/urban centres, and therefore are scored 1 point. 3. Results and Conclusions 3 Babergh and Mid Suffolk Settlement Hierarchy Review 2020 3.1 Appendix 1 provides a full breakdown of the scoring for each settlement. 3.2 Tables 2 & 3 below provides the settlement hierarchy for Babergh and Mid Suffolk based on the evidence collected.

The application was considered by Members at committee on the 7th November 2018. Members resolved to refuse outline planning permission for the following reasons: 1 – Settlement Pattern and Landscape Character The proposed development is not considered to integrate as a functional part of the existing settlement, is not considered to be in keeping with the village's existing settlement pattern, and in the absence of a comprehensive scheme of landscape planting fails to demonstrate that the development would not result in adverse harm to the existing landscape quality and character of the locality. Furthermore, by reason of its location and prominence dwellings sited would consequently be likely intrusive and result in visual detriment to the rural character and landscape.

As I am sure you already know, Lent is the 40-day period of abstinence and reflection, marking the 40 days of fasting and temptation of Jesus in the wilderness. This is an aspect of Jesus that is wonderfully human, that he had to face many temptations and keep himself pure before taking up the task of saving us from ourselves. Whether you believe that temptation comes from the devil, or from within ourselves, it is a fact of life that we face every day and it is an unavoidable part of our human vulnerability.

  • February 2019 Newsletter
    for Issue Feb 2019 Connecting Communities ince becoming leader of Suffolk County Council, I have continued to keep broadband at the top of my agenda. I am pleased to tell you that the Better Broadband for Suffolk program has Sreached a new milestone, 93% of homes and businesses across Suffolk can now upgrade to a Superfast Broadband service. This is fantastic news and means an overwhelming majority of residents, businesses and organisations can now enjoy the benefits of faster and more reliable internet speeds. But as a resident and a councillor of a rural ward where some premises still do not enjoy these benefits, I know we have further to go. We already have a contract in place for Openreach to extend fibre broadband coverage to 98% of all Suffolk premises by 2020. But even beyond this, we are committed to reaching 100% Superfast Broadband coverage in Suffolk as quickly as possible. So, if you haven’t already done so, check if Superfast Broadband is available where you live by following the simple steps below, but don’t forget, even if broadband is available, you will need to upgrade your connection to enjoy the benefits of the higher speeds. I look forward to updating you on our future progress. Cllr. Matthew Hicks Leader of Suffolk County Council and Cabinet Member for Economic Development and Infrastructure Here are three simple steps to upgrade Step 1 Finding out whether Better Broadband is available to your postcode Visit our website at www.betterbroadbandsuffolk.com/upgrade-now. Just having the ability to connect doesn’t mean you automatically have Superfast Broadband.
