    Ashton-under-Lyne Town Centre Strategy Supplementary Planning Document Consultation Statement This statement has been prepared in order to comply with the requirements of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, for the adoption of Supplementary Planning Documents by Local Planning Authorities. Published by Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council Planning and Building Control November 2009 Page 43 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Under the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 local authorities are requirement to prepare and publish a Consultation Statement for a range of planning policy documents, including Supplementary Planning Documents (SPD’s). This is a reflection of Government’s desire to “strengthen community and stakeholder involvement in the development of local communities”26. The Council formally adopted a Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) on 11th July 2006, which sets out how the public will be consulted on new planning policy and significant planning applications. As the Statement of Community Involvement is now adopted, all such planning documents will be required to conform to its provisions. 1.2 This Consultation Statement has been prepared following the adoption of the Statement of Community Involvement, and aims to reflect the intentions of Government planning guidance for reporting on community involvement in the plan making process. It describes the involvement of stakeholders, the community, voluntary organisations and statutory consultees in the preparation of the Ashton-under-Lyne Town Centre Strategy Planning Document Scoping Report, which was the forerunner to the Supplementary Planning Document. The Scoping report was made available during a period of formal public consultation in July 2006 for five weeks, and was also made available to view alongside the Supplementary Planning Document and the Sustainability Appraisal Report, in accordance with the appropriate regulations27 during the 4 week period of public consultation.

    Diocese of Manchester Deanery of Ashton-Under-Lyne Parish of St. George, Stalybridge St. George’s Church, Stalybridge 1 | P a g e Parish Profile and PCC Statement (Benefices Measure) 1. Manchester, Ashton-Under-Lyne and Stalybridge The Diocese of Manchester is the Church of England in Greater Manchester. Manchester is situated in the south-central part of North West England, fringed by the Cheshire Plain to the south and the Pennines to the north and east. The recorded history of Manchester began with the Romans in AD 79. Throughout the Middle Ages Manchester remained a town, but began expanding "at an astonishing rate" around the turn of the 19th century as part of a boom in textile production in the Industrial Revolution in the Victorian period resulting in it becoming the world's first industrial city. As the result of an early-19th century factory building boom, Manchester was transformed from a township into a major mill town, borough and was later granted honorific city status in 1853. Manchester was the site of the world's first railway statio n, hosted the first meeting of the Trades Union Congress and is where scientists first split the atom and developed the first programmable computer. It is known for its music scene and its sporting connections. Manchester was the host of the 2002 Commonwealth Games, and its sports clubs include two Premier League football teams, Manchester City and Manchester Picture 1. United. Manchester is the third-most visited city in the Manchester Town Hall United Kingdom by foreign visitors and the most visited in England outside London.
