Address: Land south of Caldecott Applicant: Mr M Sharman Parish Caldecott Agent: Mr Drummond Robson Ward Lyddington Reason for presenting to Committee: Major application in open countryside Significant local objection EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This is an outline application for residential development on open pasture land to the south of the village. The site is outside the Planned Limit to Development and in open countryside. The site was submitted as a potential housing site in the Site Allocations and Polices DPD process but was not allocated as a development site in the Submission document. The Local Planning Authority can demonstrate an up to date 5 year land supply, including the 20% margin required by the National Planning Policy Framework. There has been significant local opposition to the proposal. The application is contrary to policy and there are no material considerations that would suggest that the development should be approved. Flooding, archaeology and ecology issues have not been satisfactorily resolved. No Developer Contributions have been offered as part of the application. RECOMMENDATION REFUSE PLANNING PERMISSION, for the following reasons: 1. The site lies outside the Planned Limit to Development for Caldecott where policies in the Rutland Local Plan (2001) and the Rutland Core Strategy (2011) limit development in the countryside to certain essential uses provided that these meet certain criteria. The proposal does not constitute one of these exceptions. The emerging Site Allocations and Polices DPD (Proposed Submission Document, April 2013), also shows that the proposed area for residential development lies outside the Planned Limit to Development for Caldecott and is therefore subject to its policies relating to housing in the countryside, which again are restrictive. The site was put forward by the applicant for inclusion as a housing allocation in the Site Allocations and Policies DPD but it was not accepted by the Council following a site appraisal process. The site, together with wider land to the south of Caldecott is designated in the Rutland Local Plan as Particularly Attractive Countryside. The Local Planning Authority can demonstrate an up to date five year land supply with a 20% buffer as required by Para 47 of the National Planning Policy Framework. The Local Planning Authority does not accept the reduced figures suggested by the applicant, based on reduced delivery at the Oakham North site. Similarly, there is no identified need for additional housing in Caldecott that would justify overriding the policies. On that basis there is no need to exceptionally release this land for 18 development. The development would be prominent in the landscape when approaching Caldecott from the south and would harm the tranquil rural character of this edge of the village. The proposal would constitute a significant rise in the number of dwellings in a Smaller Service centre, leading to an unacceptable impact on the character of the area and further burden on an already low level of local services. The proposal would thereby be contrary to saved Policies EN26 and EN28 of the adopted Rutland Local Plan (2001), Policies CS4 and CS21 of the adopted Rutland Core Strategy (2011) and Policy SP5 of the Site Allocations and Polices DPD (April 2013). 2. The design illustrations of the proposed dwellings are considered to be inappropriate for this location on the edge of a traditional Rutland village where the predominant materials are ironstone and slate. The layout is led by the need to avoid the main flood zone area and as such is not locally distinctive where the pattern of development in the village is of buildings close to the rear of the footpaths. The development is urban in nature in that it utilises terraces of properties and presents a car dominated appearance. The proposal would thereby be contrary to the advice in Para 58 of the National Planning Policy Framework, Policy CS19 of the Rutland Core Strategy (2011) and Policy SP14 of the Submission Site Allocations and Polices DPD (2013). 3. The application is not accompanied by any commitment to make developer contributions in line with the Council’s polices. The proposal would thereby be contrary to Policies CS8 and CS11 of the Rutland Core Strategy (2011) and the adopted Supplementary Planning Documents on Developer Contributions (2010) and Affordable Housing (2012). 4. The site is in an area at risk of flooding from both the Eye Brook and the Eyebrook Reservoir. The Environment Agency advises that the submitted Flood Risk Assessment does not adequately deal with this issue. Potential occupiers of the development would thereby be subject to an unnecessary risk in addition to the development displacing flood water elsewhere to the detriment of other nearby property. The proposal would thereby be contrary to the advice in saved policy UT5 of the Rutland Local Plan (2001), Policies CS1 and CS19 of the Rutland Core Strategy (2011) and the advice in Para’s 99-103 of the National Planning Policy Framework. 5. No archaeological study has been undertaken to understand the importance of the site. The proposal is thereby contrary to Policy CS22 of the Rutland Core Strategy (2011), saved Policy EN14 of the Rutland Local Plan (2001), Policy SP19 of the Submission Site Allocations and Polices DPD (April 2013) and the advice in Para’s 128, 129 and 135 of the National Planning Policy Framework. 6. The site is considered to be of ecological importance and the submitted Habitat Survey is not considered to adequately address this issue. The development is also considered to be too close to the river and site boundaries to ensure that biodiversity and protected species are adequately protected. The scheme is thereby contrary to advice in Paragraph 118 of the NPPF and Policy CS21 of the Rutland Core Strategy (2011) and Policy SP18 of the Submission Site Allocations and Policies DPD (2013). 19 7. The application is accompanied by traffic data which the highway authority considers to be unreliable, the access lacks adequate width, the new southern access lacks adequate visibility for an access outside the 30mph limit and the proposal would be likely to result in standing traffic on a section of highway in a rural area, to the detriment of highway safety. The proposal is thereby contrary to the advice in Para 32 of the National Planning Policy Framework, saved Policies HT4, HT5 and HT6 of the Rutland Local Plan (2001) and Policy SP14 of the Submission Site Allocations and Polices DPD (2103). Site & Surroundings 1. The site is located in open countryside to the south of the village of Caldecott. The land here is designated Particularly Attractive Countryside in the Rutland Local Plan. The site adjoins the Planned Limit to Development as defined in the Rutland Local Plan and the Submission Site Allocations and Polices DPD. 2. The site comprises open fields including field hedges and trees. There is some historic ridge and furrow on the site. The Eye Brook runs through the site. The site is generally behind a high roadside hedge. The site is around 3ha in total although only 1.6ha is included within the red line site for the purposes of this application.

  • The Welland Valley Partnership River Improvement Plan
    The Welland Valley Partnership Enhancing the River Welland Our invitation to support a new vision for the local environment January 2013 Foreword The Welland Valley Partnership - Working Together for a Better River The River Welland arises above Market Harborough and flows through the gently rolling countryside of Northamptonshire, Leicestershire and Rutland until it reaches Stamford where it is one of the features that makes the town so attractive. Below Stamford the River continues on its way to Market Deeping and Spalding, where its character changes and the water slows down to become one of the four fenland rivers which drain the Fens and finally enter the Wash. People have relied on the Rivers for thousands of years for water, food, transport and energy; as a result the River Welland and its valley have changed enormously. Even the course of the River Welland has moved; it used to flow through the Trinity Bridge in Crowland, but now runs almost a mile away and the bridge is a dry monument in the centre of the town. Figure 1: Trinity Bridge at Crowland. This triangular bridge once provided a crossing place over two channels of the River Welland. (©Dave Hitchborne and licensed for reuse under the Creative Commons Licence) 1: Trinity Bridge at While many of these changes have been beneficial, such as the creation of water meadows which were an important feature of the English countryside, others have had unintended side effects. For example, land drainage and the extensive dredging of the River upstream of Stamford have left us with an over-widened and over-deepened channel with little of its historic character.

  • The Rove Beetles of Leicestershire and Rutland
    LEICESTERSHIRE ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY The Rove Beetles (Staphylinidae) of Leicestershire and Rutland Part 1: Sub-families Paederinae, Pseudopsinae and Staphylininae Derek A. Lott Creophilus maxillosus (Graham Calow) LESOPS 24 (2011) ISSN 0957 – 1019 Correspondence: 5 Welland Road, Barrow upon Soar, LE12 8NA VC55 Staphylinids Part 1 2 Introduction With over 56,000 described species in the world, the Staphylinidae are the largest family in the animal kingdom (Grebennikov & Newton, 2009). Around a quarter of the British beetles are rove beetles, so they represent an important component of biodiversity in Britain. However, because of perceived difficulties in their identification, they have not received the attention that they merit. This paper aims to play a part in redressing that imbalance by listing all reliable records from Leicestershire and Rutland for the different species and analysing which species have declined locally over 100 years of recording rove beetles and which have prospered. The subfamilies treated in this first part include the largest and most conspicuous species in the family. The geographical area covered is the vice county of Leicestershire and Rutland (VC55). Some records from adjacent banks of the River Soar that technically lie in Nottinghamshire are also included. These records can be distinguished by the use of Nottinghamshire parish names. Identification Staphylinidae can be easily recognised among beetles in the field by their short wing cases that leave five or six segments of the abdomen exposed and flexible. In fact they look more like earwigs than other beetles. For identification to species, all the members of the subfamilies in this part will be covered by the forthcoming Royal Entomological Society handbook to Staphylinidae parts 6 and 7 due for publication in 2011.

    No. 217 1 January - 31 March 2015 Editorial Panel: Helen Ikin, Steve Woodward, Jim Graham. Hon. Sec. Sue Graham, 5 Lychgate Close, Cropston, Leicester. LE7 7HU. Tel: 0116-2366474 A View From The Armchair To live and grow up in a house with a lovely garden is a real privilege. For a naturalist it can provide hours of fun and a realisation that even in an area that we consider familiar there is still much to learn. My father built the house in Quorn in Leicestershire in the early 1950s after demolishing three small cottages that were initially on the site. My parents and sister moved into the house on its completion in 1955. I was born in the house a year later. My father was, and still is, a keen naturalist and during my childhood he held a ringing licence and ringed birds in our garden. Birds have now been ringed in the garden for 60 years and this has provided us with a wealth of information. The garden which is some 80 feet long and 40 feet wide, borders onto a mixed woodland called Kaye’s Plantation. I started bird ringing in 1974 and, after attaining my C-permit a short time later, started to use a mist net in the garden which added to the variety of birds ringed. Since we started we have caught some 57 species some of which have taken us by surprise including: Common Gull, Kingfisher, Lesser Spotted Woodpecker and Firecrest. The fourth Siskin I had ever caught in the garden in April 1976 IN THIS EDITION was wearing a Russian ring! It had been ringed near Liepaya in Latvia in October the previous year.
