The Windlestone Hall Planning Statement and Development Brief has been prepared by the Design, Conservation, Landscape and Tree Management Team in consultation with English Heritage and Durham County Council’s Archaeological Section in order to guide prospective purchasers in the preparation of adaptation, restoration and development proposals for the Windlestone Hall site which is situated within a registered Historic Park and is within the Windlestone Conservation Area. 1.2 Through making this a Supplementary Planning Document, it would provide the document with statutory planning weight, it would be tested by public consultation, would be subject to the provisions of Sustainability Appraisal, Appropriate Assessment and would form part of the statutory development plan. Its new status as a Supplementary Planning Document would strengthen the Council’s role as Local Planning Authority and add the appropriate weight to and provide Officers with a robust mandate in dealing with any planning or listed building applications to secure a standard of development commensurate with the historic status of the site. This process of producing a Supplementary Planning Document will take 12 months. In order to take this forward, the Local Development Scheme will need to be revised. 2 RECOMMENDATION 2.1 That Development Control Committee recommend to Cabinet that the production of the Windlestone Hall Planning Statement and Design Brief as a Supplementary Planning Document is incorporated within a revised Local Development Scheme.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.

    ANNEX 1 Darlington Local Plan 2016 - 2036 Sustainability Appraisal Framework September 2017 Darlington Borough Council 1 170912 EG Local Plan Sustainability Assessment Annex 1 Framework / Cabinet Contents 1.0 Summary 2.0 Introduction and context 3.0 Information requirements 4.0 Development of the Sustainability Framework Appendix 1: Review of plans, policies and programmes Appendix 2: Sustainability appraisal baseline 2 170912 EG Local Plan Sustainability Assessment Annex 1 Framework / Cabinet 1.0 SUMMARY 1.1 This report sets out the framework for undertaking Sustainability Appraisal and Strategic Environmental Assessment (SA / SEA) for the Darlington Local Plan. It explains the context, identifies sustainability objectives, and the approach to assessment, identifying relevant environmental, economic and social issues. 1.2 Sustainability is about ensuring that decisions taken now are the right decisions to improve our quality of life, and that of future generations. A Sustainability Appraisal is a technique that allows us to consider how much a plan will contribute to a range of environmental, social and economic factors which contribute to our quality of life. 1.3 The Council is required to carry out sustainability appraisal alongside local plan preparation by the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. The appraisal also integrates an assessment of the significant environmental effects of the local plan and its reasonable alternatives, a requirement of the EU Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Directive. It is possible that a Habitats Regulations Assessment1 of the local plan will also be required. If so, its findings will be reflected in this sustainability appraisal work. 1.4 This Framework should ensure that at each key stage of the Local Plan preparation, the Sustainability Appraisal considers all relevant significant environmental, social and economic sustainability issues appropriately.

  • Way of Life (North to South)
    1 North to South Introduction This guide gives directions for travelling The Way of Life from Durham to Gainford. The Way of Life follows the same route as The Camino Ingles which starts at Finchale Priory north of Durham, so you can follow those waymarks as well as Northern Saints Trails signs. This pilgrimage route, along with the Ways of Love, Light and Learning, all lead to or from the shrine of St Cuthbert in Durham. This route would have been the closest to St Cuthbert’s final journey in his coffin from Ripon to Durham in 995. He had died over 300 years earlier, but the monks who carried that coffin believed that by his spirit he continued to be alive and to guide them. This is why this route is called the Way of Life. Water is a symbol of life, so it is appropriate that the route begins by the River Wear and ends at St Mary’s Well by the River Tees. Distances are approximate. The total distance is 47 kilometres or 29 miles. I have divided the route into 4 sections between 11 and 14 kilometres. The section numbers were originally allocated from south to north, so we start with section 4 and end with section 1. Section 4 Durham to Tudhoe - 11 kms/7 miles After leaving the cathedral facing Palace Green, turn right along the north side of the cathedral into Dun Cow Lane and then turn right to go down North Bailey which soon becomes South Bailey. There are many interesting buildings as you walk along the cobbled street, including the church of St Mary the Less on your right.
