A private track to Rigby Fold runs along Page 2 of 13 Registered Office: 90 Pimlico Road, Clitheroe, Lancashire, BB7 2AH. Incorporated in England No. 09911421 the western boundary of the site beyond which is open grazing land. To the south of the site within the Borough of South Ribble is a Council Deport and Huntley’s Country Store. 2.3 Whalley Road carries a bus service 280 and x80 which links Skipton to Preston via Clitheroe. The site has direct access to the primary road network and good links to the motorway. 3 COMPANY DESCRIPTION 3.1 Stuart Taylor Internal is currently based in Balderstone. They hire, service, repair and sell large scale grass cutting equipment. Their clients include grass cutting contractors (for schools, hospitals, highways etc), golf courses, grounds keepers and private individuals with large gardens. The majority of companies that hire grass cutting equipment are based in the north-west, but machines are hired out UK wide. The machinery is either delivered to the customer or is collected by the customer using a 7.5 - tonne truck or land rover with trailer. All machinery is road registered. 3.2 Equipment is hired out long term for a 26-week (plus) season. Short term hire is between a week and a month. 1 or 2-day hire is machinery with driver. 4. PROPOSED DEVLEOPMENT 4.1 The proposed development is for a building to be used as display showroom for large scale grass cutting equipment for purchase or hire. Grass cutting machinery is large in size and to be able to display the variety of machines available and a large showroom is required. The building will also provide the administrative offices for the company. A workshop is proposed at the rear and will only be used for assembly of new machinery, storage and spare parts. 4.2 A hot food takeaway (fish and chips) is proposed next to the Boddington Arms. It is anticipated that the takeaway will serve employees at BAe as well as passing trade along the A59. A residential unit will be retained on site. 4.3 The proposed uses on the site can be summarised as: A1 retail-for the sale of grass cutting machinery 291m2. B2/B8 workshop-for the assembly of new machines, spare parts and storage. 175m2 B1 office-for use by the grass cutting machinery business 200m2. A5 hot food takeaway 20m2 C3 residential 84m2 Page 3 of 13 Registered Office: 90 Pimlico Road, Clitheroe, Lancashire, BB7 2AH. Incorporated in England No. 09911421 4.4 The depot (sales area, offices and workshop) would be operational from 8am to 5pm Monday to Saturday with no opening on Sunday or bank holidays. The hot food takeaway is likely to have peak trade at lunch-time and early evening. It is likely to open 11am to 10pm Monday to Saturday. 4.5 It is intended that the apartment is to be occupied by the operator of the hot food takeaway as managers accommodation. 4.6 Staff parking for the depot is at the rear of the yard area and customer parking for the showroom, apartment and the takeaway is at the front of the building. 5 PRE-APPLICATION ADVICE 5.1 Pre-application advice was received reference 3/2017/ENQ/00053. The advice confirmed that in principle the proposed uses on the site are acceptable. It stated “The proposal as a principle accords with the policies of the Core strategy, EC1. The site is well related to the A59 corridor, is adjacent to the Samlesbury strategic site. It is brownfield for which there is a priority for its reuse for employment generating uses. Policy DMB1 supports proposals that are intended to deliver business growth. As the proposal is for the re-use of the site for employment generating uses I don’t consider there to be a need to provide the marketing evidence.” 6 ASSESSMENT Core strategy 6.1 The following policies of the Core Strategy are relevant to this application are: Key Statement DS1-Development Strategy Key Statement EN2-Landscape Key Statement EN4-Biodiversity Key Statement EN5-Heritage Assets Key Statement EC1: Business and employment development. Key Statement EC2- Development of retail, shops and community facilities and services Page 4 of 13 Registered Office: 90 Pimlico Road, Clitheroe, Lancashire, BB7 2AH. Incorporated in England No. 09911421 Key Statement DMI2 – transport considerations. New development should be located to minimise the need to travel. Policy DMG1: General Considerations Policy DMG3: Transport and mobility Policy DMB1 Supporting Business Growth and the Local Economy. Policy DME2 Landscape and townscape protection. Policy DME4: Protecting Heritage Assets Policy DMR3-Retial outside the main settlements. 7 SITE HISTORY There is no planning history for the site recorded on the Council website. 8 EVALUATION 8.1 This section of the statement will justify the acceptability of the proposed development and demonstrate its accordance with the policies of the core strategy. The main issues to be considered are the principle of the proposed commercial development, visual amenity, heritage assets, residential amenity, and highway safety. Core Strategy 8.2 The Ribble Valley Core Strategy highlights the limited number of employment opportunities available in the Borough, which results in high levels of daily out commuting to access employment. This proposal will support the underlying strategic approach in the Core Strategy expressed in Key Statement DS1 to create development opportunities for economic, social and environmental well-being and development for future generations. The development has the potential to deliver benefits such as the retention of employment, new employment and reducing the levels of out-commuting and increasing self-containment. Principle of Development 8.3 Land which is well related to the A59 corridor is considered to be an acceptable location for new employment development. Stuart Taylor International is a well-establish business with its current premises located nearby at Lane Ends Balderstone. The relocation of the sales and administration, which is the main part of the business, to The Myerscough site will allow the business to expand and remain in the Ribble Valley the majority of repairs will remain at the current site. Sites well related to the A59 are one of the preferred Page 5 of 13 Registered Office: 90 Pimlico Road, Clitheroe, Lancashire, BB7 2AH. Incorporated in England No. 09911421 locations for employment development. The site has a history of employment us as a public house Use Class A4 with residential Use Class C3. The proposed use will retain an employment use of the site. The majority of the employment will be in the sales and administration of the business, with the workshop area being used in a supporting role. The flat within the premises retains the Use Class C3 use and the proposal introduces an A5 hot food takeaway use intend to serve the nearby employment site. Overall the employment generating potential of the site is likely to increase. 8.4 Key Statement EC1 “Business and Employment Development” directs employment development to the main settlements as preferred locations and supports development in locations well related to the A59 corridor. The site is adjacent to the A59. This business will benefit from having good access to the highway network, with fast connections to the main traffic routes and the motorway. 8.5 This site is the nearest available site on which to expand.

  • Lancashire (Blackburn)
    LANCASHIRE Lancashire is a large county in north-west of England, bordered by the sea to the west. The counties of Cumberland and Westmorland lie to the north, the West Riding of Yorkshire to the east, and Cheshire to the south. In the nineteenth century the county was transformed. It began as a mainly agricultural region but became an area with many large urban regions and a variety of industrial occupations. This transformation led to frequent changes in the administrative structure, both in the county-at- large and in the towns and cities. Because of the complex and changing structure, the information about weights and scales is presented here in six sections. The sections correspond geographically to the six ancient hundreds of the county, as shown in the map above. (The hundred of Lonsdale was divided naturally into two parts, North and South ‘of the Sands’, but it was administered as one unit.) It must be stressed that, although the administration of the county was based on these geographical areas, the individual hundreds did not have independent jurisdiction. 1 The hundred of BLACKBURN in Lancashire The hundred of Blackburn lies in the east of the county of Lancashire and is bordered partly by the West Riding of Yorkshire. In 1826 the county received two sets of standards for use in the Higher and Lower Divisions of the hundred. The same divisions continued after 1846, when the police force began to take over the inspection of weights and measures. An additional division, Bacup and Rawtenstall, was formed in 1861. There was a further reorganisation in 1878, after which there were four divisions: Higher, Lower, Haslingden, and Rossendale.

To extend the Rochdale - Manchester to Blackburn terminating service to Clitheroe and Hellifield; or b. To introduce a new service between Preston – Blackburn – Clitheroe and Hellifield. The line between Clitheroe and Hellifield is mainly used by freight with the exception of franchised passenger services on Sunday and the occasional charter service. The existing franchised passenger service comprise DalesRail which operates during the summer timetable between Blackpool North and Carlisle via Clitheroe and during the winter timetable a service of 2 trains a day operates between Blackpool North/Preston and Hellifield via Clitheroe.
