Ashfield, Broxtowe, Erewash, Gedling, Nottingham City and Rushcliffe Councils are working jointly in order to prepare evidence to support the emerging aligned Core Strategies and Local Development Frameworks within their districts. Nottinghamshire County Council is assisting in this work. Part of the evidence base will be to inform the authorities about suitable settlements for the location of appropriate levels of development. 1.2. The aim of any spatial development strategy is to ensure that new development takes place at the appropriate scale in the most sustainable settlements. Most development should be concentrated within those settlements with the largest range of shops and services with more limited development within local service centres and villages.

  • Nottingham Road, Cropwell Bishop) (Prohibition of Waiting) Traffic Regulation Order 2015 (8227)
    Report to Transport and Highways Committee 12 th November 2015 Agenda Item:10 REPORT OF SERVICE DIRECTOR, HIGHWAYS THE NOTTINGHAMSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL (NOTTINGHAM ROAD, CROPWELL BISHOP) (PROHIBITION OF WAITING) TRAFFIC REGULATION ORDER 2015 (8227) CONSIDERATION OF OBJECTIONS Purpose of the Report 1. To consider the objections received in respect of the above Traffic Regulation Order and whether it should be made as advertised. Information and Advice 2. Cropwell Bishop is a village in the borough of Rushcliffe in Nottinghamshire, 1.2 miles to the east of the A46. Nottingham Road forms part of the main street through the village linking to the A46. The proposals relate to a section of Nottingham Road that provides access to a number of side streets, has residential properties fronting the road, a number of small businesses, a local public house and Methodist church. Not all of the residential properties fronting Nottingham Road have off-street parking provision. 3. The County Council has received requests from local residents, Cropwell Bishop Parish Council and County Councillor Richard Butler to consider introducing waiting restrictions in the village to help alleviate issues with parking patterns causing traffic congestion and conflict. A key problem is that the main route through the village is not wide enough for cars in both directions and as a result the County Council is proposing to introduce ‘No Waiting At Any Time’ (double yellow lines) along parts of Nottingham Road and at the junctions of Barrett Close and Mill lane. 4. The statutory consultation and public advertisement of the proposals was carried out between 14 th May 2015 and 4th June 2015, as detailed on the attached drawing H/8227/TRO2.

    LITTLE ACRE TITHBY ROAD CROPWELL BUTLER NOTTINGHAMSHIRE NG12 3AA Land & Estate Agents The Country Property Specialists Property Consultants www.smithandpartners.co.uk LITTLE ACRE A stunning and unique village house which has been creatively re-designed and completely refurbished in 2019 to offer an exquisite contemporary interior design theme. The original house was constructed circa 1935 and very little of the original house remains today, but in its place there is an extensive range of flowing and versatile internal accommodation with as many as six bedrooms if required (Four on the first floor and two on the ground floor - four with en-suites ) with the signature feature of the house being the magnificent open plan contemporary kitchen, dining area and sitting room; this wonderful village house merits early internal inspection. CROPWELL BUTLER Cropwell Butler is a small thriving village protected in the main by a Conservation Area designation, set in unspoilt countryside on the edge of the Vale of Belvoir due east of Nottingham. Close to hand the larger villages of Radcliffe on Trent and the small market town of Bingham offer extensive local amenities and schooling. From Cropwell Butler there is direct access into the main regional centres of Nottingham and Leicester. The M1 Southbound can be accessed by the new link road to the north west of Leicester, which facilitates road access into London, and the East Midlands airport is readily accessible from the village. Grantham, to the east of the village, offers a useful A1 connection and from Grantham station there is a direct rail link into London Kings Cross in a scheduled time of 75 minutes.

The process of creating the Colston Bassett Neighbourhood Plan has been driven by Parish Councillors and members of the community and is part of the Government’s approach to planning contained in the Localism Act of 2011. Local people now have a greater say about what happens in the area in which they live by preparing a Neighbourhood Plan that sets out policies that meet the need of the community whilst having regard for local, national and EU policies. 2. The aim of this Neighbourhood Plan is to put forward the wishes of the community regarding future development and to deliver local aspirations within the context of the strategic planning framework. 3. Colston Bassett Parish Council has overseen the development of the Neighbourhood Plan but has delegated its preparation to a Working Group 4. The Neighbourhood Plan contains a number of policies, including some areas where the Parish Council will support development activity, and other areas such as “Local Green Spaces’ that the community wish to protect.
