  • Selmeston Conservation Area
    Selmeston Conservation Area Selmeston Village Wealden District Council has designated part of Selmeston village as a Conservation Area - an area of special architectural or historic interest - so that its character and appearance may be preserved and enhanced. This booklet explains why the designation has been made and what it implies for residents and landowners in the area. Introduction Selmeston village, positioned just beyond the foot of the Sussex Downs, is a relatively small linear village and is primarily residential in nature. The village consists almost entirely of frontage development extending northwards from the A27. The tracks leading from the crossroads at Selmeston Church give access to the residential properties of Little Bells and Green House to the east and Sherrington Manor some way to the west. The historic core of the village can be considered to be the area immediately to the north of and including the Parish Church of St Mary. In this locality, the listed buildings date from the 17th Century and the Church, although mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1085, is of a 14th Century style but was largely reconstructed in 1867. Sherrington Manor also dates from around the 17th Century. Selmeston Church Appraisal In order to determine the boundary of the Conservation Area, a study was made of the features which contribute to the special character of the village: 1. Listed Buildings: There are 14 buildings in the village included on the Statutory List of Buildings of Architectural or Historic Interest, all of which are listed as Grade II. The oldest building in Selmeston is the Parish Church which is of a 14th Century style, but much of the structure was rebuilt in 1867 and very little of the original building now remains.

  • A27 Roads Improvements Update – Summary Appendix 1 1 A27
    A27 Roads Improvements Update – Summary Appendix 1 1 A27 Feasibility Improvement Study Context 1.1 The A27 improvement study was one of a series announced by the Government in 2013 to help identify and fund solutions to tackle some of the notorious and long standing hotspots in the country. 1.2 The study focussed on the A27 corridor between Portsmouth and Pevensey. It considered and analysed the evidence available and the potential issues/future pressures that may arise; the priority needs for investment and reviewed a number of potential investment options, and also assessed the strength of the economic case of the potential options including whether they demonstrated value for money and are deliverable. Stage 1 – Evidence Gathering 1.3 Consideration of evidence and data, including from previous studies, identified a number of key issues with the A27 between Lewes and Polegate. 1.4 At present, there is an inconsistency in the quality of the road compared to other parts of the A27 and the safety record shows that the A27 is in the top 10% worst sections in terms of total casualties per billion vehicle miles. This section of the A27 is in the top 20% in terms of network delay and there are significant journey time reliability issues. These existing problems will be further exacerbated with the planned growth in East Sussex, and without improvement to this section of the A27, the road will be over capacity in 2021 and 2031 leading to further congestion. 1.5 When presented together, the evidence clearly set out that there are major operational challenges with the A27 east of Lewes: it needs to be fit for purpose to provide greater connectivity to the A23/M23 corridor and Gatwick, the M25/London and beyond; ensure journey time reliability which is important for business in terms of the movement of people/goods; carry the long distance strategic traffic that it is supposed to cater for; accommodate future growth plans; and have greater resilience.
