Introduction: This Design, Access, Energy & Environmental statement is in support of a planning application on behalf of Martin Cashmore Property Limited and relating to Unit 2, Halfway Farm, Dockenfield Road, Bucks Horn Oak, Near Farnham, Surrey The application seeks full planning permission to demolish an outdated brick built car maintenance/MOT unit with asbestos roof and to replace it with a purpose-built workshop with associated offices, rest rooms and storage areas. This new building will be split into two units of equal size. One of the new units will be used for a continuation of motor trade use but to a much lesser extent and the other unit will be used for an extension of Martin Cashmore Fencing, already operating from the site. DESIGN & ACCESS STATEMENT : UNIT 2 REPLACEMENT HALFWAY FARM, DOCKENFIELD RD. BUCKS HORN OAK, 1 GU10 4LP 2. Location: The small village of Bucks Horn Oak lies 6km directly to the south of the Surrey town of Farnham, close to the Surrey/Hampshire border. The market town of Alton in Hampshire is 6km to the west. Bucks Horn Oak is on the A325 Farnham to Bordon road that links with the A31 to the north and the A3 to the south. Bentley railway station on the Waterloo line is a short walk away. Bucks Horn Oak has a community of approximately 115 houses and a number of commercial operations including this application site. There is also a petrol station with shop and hand car wash. The village is within a mile of a number of leisure facilities including a large garden centre with Birdworld, Alice Holt Forest Go Ape and Blacknest Golf Club. An extract from the EHDC interactive proposals map depicting the site is shown below. Figure 1: Extract from EHDC Interactive map showing proposal site DESIGN & ACCESS STATEMENT : UNIT 2 REPLACEMENT HALFWAY FARM, DOCKENFIELD RD. BUCKS HORN OAK, 2 GU10 4LP The site is located just outside the settlement boundary of the village, within the bounds of East Hampshire District Council. Buck Horn Oak is also within the South Downs National Park and is surrounded by a rural area of rolling hills and fields where farming is predominant. Adjacent to the proposal site is Alice Holt Forest, an area of mixed coniferous and deciduous woodland controlled by the Allis Holt Research Institute, the research headquarters of the Forestry Commission. It is also a Site of Important Nature Conservation. 3. The Site: The commercial/industrial estate at Halfway Farm is accessed via a gated macadam track off the Dockenfield Road at its junction with the A325. The premises comprise three main buildings with associated outbuildings and wood storage area set within a site area of approximately 8500m2.

The underside of the asbestos roof without insulation is clearly visible. DESIGN & ACCESS STATEMENT : UNIT 2 REPLACEMENT HALFWAY FARM, DOCKENFIELD RD. BUCKS HORN OAK, 4 GU10 4LP Building number 1, on the southern end of the site, is a modern steel framed building, 6.600m high x 13.000m wide x 19.000m long clad in dark green plastic-coated trapezoidal profile metal sheet. It was constructed in 2014 (SDNP/13/03019/FUL). The building has two large roller shutter doors on its east elevation and personnel fire escape doors on the west and south elevations. Internally the building is completely open plan. Vehicle parking is on the macadam front apron and the gravel surfaced rear. This building was recently granted Planning Approval to add a single storey side extension for an office together with rest rooms associated with this building (Planning Ref: SDNP/20/01793/FUL). Fig 6: View showing Units number 1 and 2 to the right of picture. Building number 2 is a much older pre-war building with a later extension. Overall, it is approximately 23.300m long and 14.600m wide. It varies in height with combined pitched and flat roofs. The walls are of red brick. Car parking is to the front on a concrete hardstanding and to a gravelled area to the north side. The pitched roof is of asbestos-cement. Fig 7: View looking north on the access road. Unit number 3 showing in the background. DESIGN & ACCESS STATEMENT : UNIT 2 REPLACEMENT HALFWAY FARM, DOCKENFIELD RD. BUCKS HORN OAK, 5 GU10 4LP Building number 3 is operated and owned by Martin Cashmore Fencing and measures approximately 6.600m high x 13.600m wide x 31.000m long. It is a modern steel framed structure clad in a similar fashion to building number 1. The front section of the building has two stories with offices on the first floor and a shop and reception on the ground floor. The rear is a storage area (SDNP/16/01898/FUL). Outside, is a well-kept open space given mostly to storage of fencing supplies, material collection area and parking. The outbuildings house various fencing related operational equipment. Fig 8: View looking south down the access road The boundaries to the west and north of the estate are mostly 4.000m high mixed species hedging interlinked with fencing of various types. To the east is a post and wire fence and a ditch facing Alice Holt forest. The southern boundary to Halfway Farm is a 2.000m high close board fence. Fig 9: View looking east towards the large fenced storage area. Alice Holt in the background. DESIGN & ACCESS STATEMENT : UNIT 2 REPLACEMENT HALFWAY FARM, DOCKENFIELD RD. BUCKS HORN OAK, 6 GU10 4LP 4. Planning History: From 1996 – 2011 there were 20 various applications on the site under Reference no: 21409 SDNP/13/03019/FUL Approved September 2013 Detached building for MOT business after demolition of disused out building. SDNP/16/01898/FUL Approved November 2016 Detached building for use as a warehouse with office and sales space. SDNP/13/03019/FUL Approved July 2020 Attached single story extension to side of Unit 1. 5. The Proposal & Design: Building number 2 has reached the end of its useful life and is to be replaced. The building is old and decrepit. It has an environmentally unfriendly asbestos pitched roof, a very poor energy rating with no thermal insulation, no sound insulation and sub-standard sanitation. Various businesses have tried to adapt the building to their requirements over the years but with compromise and little success, resulting in unpleasant surroundings in which to work. It is proposed to demolish building number 2 and remove the two temporary container storage sheds at the rear. It is envisaged that the brick and concrete block demolition rubble will be re-used on site minimising lorry movements; however the asbestos roofing will be removed from site by a specialist contractor. The proposed new building will be sited mainly over the footprint of the to be demolished building with parking and turning space to the front. This siting, between buildings number 1 and number 3 result in the proposal being mostly hidden from view from the south and north, thereby not encroaching on the visual amenity of SDNP. The character of the whole development has been carefully considered in designing the proposal. The ridge line will face east/west to match the other buildings and reduce any unlikely bulk visual impact from the A325 and Alice Holt Forest. The height of the ridge has been kept to a minimum and in keeping with the existing, being determined by a projection of a line over the ridges of the existing buildings. All the entrance doors and windows will face away from the built-up area to the west, minimalizing light and noise disturbance. To aid the prevention of light pollution, there will be no windows on the west, north or south elevations. The doors on these elevations shown on the drawings are unglazed emergency fire escape doors. DESIGN & ACCESS STATEMENT : UNIT 2 REPLACEMENT HALFWAY FARM, DOCKENFIELD RD. BUCKS HORN OAK, 7 GU10 4LP The new building will be constructed with a shallow pitched steel portal framework clad with a plastic-coated trapezoidal profiled steel skin, double lined and fully insulated. The cladding will be designed and specified by the building manufacturer to exceed the current requirement of the Building Regulations in regard to fire protection, spread of flame and energy conservation. The external cladding will be dark green to match with the other units on site as well as to harmonise with the surrounding rural setting. The building will be split into two, divided by a fire proof concrete block wall running east west and fire stopped along the ridge. Solar pv panels will be fitted to the southern roof elevation. The front east elevation of each unit will comprise a 4m x 4m roller shutter door to access the main storage/work area of the building, there will be a personnel door, three windows at ground floor level and 3 windows at first floor level. Internally, a wc and reception/office with a staircase to a first-floor office. Externally, the front of the building will be for parking, vehicle access and turning, using the existing concrete and macadam surfaces to minimise excavations.

  • WOOLMER FOREST LIBERAL DEMOCRATS (WFLD)1 COMMENTS on COMMISSION’S DRAFT RECOMMENDATIONS (V1.4) General 1
    WARD BOUNDARY REVIEW 2017 WOOLMER FOREST LIBERAL DEMOCRATS (WFLD)1 COMMENTS ON COMMISSION’S DRAFT RECOMMENDATIONS (V1.4) General 1. This is WFLD’s response to the Commission’s draft recommendations on Liphook, Headley Whitehill Chase, Whitehill Hogmoor & Greatham wards. We accept the recommendations on Grayshott, Lindford and the single-councillor wards in Whitehill & Bordon. 2. We are disappointed by the Commission’s decision to create yet more, multi-councillor wards, especially after most respondents stated their preference for retaining the existing ward structure with its single-councillor wards. As we stressed in our earlier submission, these give an electoral advantage to the biggest party, make it exceedingly difficult for independent candidates and smaller parties to stand and discourages large swathes of the electorate from voting, as can be seen by the poor turnout in local elections. 3. Our experience, from talking to thousands of voters on the doorstep, confirms this discouraging trend. Where there are single-councillor wards most voters tend to get to know the candidates, read their policies and ask questions; in multi-councillor wards most just vote along tribal lines on the assumption that ‘their party has selected the best candidates.’ Indeed, in these larger wards voters seem to lose interest in both the candidates and their policies. This trend is borne out by the consistent party vote ratio in most district elections. Giving voters’ more than one vote does not create electoral equality, it just leads to one party rule which isn’t good for democracy. 4. As we explained, in our initial proposals, we had provided maps on splitting the wards within the existing boundaries.

Licence number AL50684A 16499/02/PW/PW 16684975v1 East Hampshire Retail and Main Town Centre Uses Study : Final Report Executive Summary Lichfields has been commissioned by East Hampshire District Council to prepare a Retail and Main Town Centres Uses Study to inform future planning policy in the District excluding the South Downs National Park area, together with a wider strategy for the future of the District’s centres to 2036. It will form part of the Council’s evidence base in progressing the review of the adopted Local Plan. The economic downturn had a significant impact on the retail and leisure sectors, and continuing uncertainties are still having an effect. Market conditions are still challenging. The high pre-recession expenditure growth rates are unlikely to be achieved. The growth in the demand for floorspace is expected to slow, particularly in the short term. New forms of retailing (multi-channel shopping) have continued to grow. Given the likelihood that multi- channel shopping is likely to grow at a faster pace than total retail expenditure, the retail study assessment has adopted relatively cautious growth projections. The NPPF states that local planning authorities should assess the quantitative and qualitative needs for land or floorspace for retail and leisure development over the next 10 years as a minimum.
