Market Area Report for West Lancashire RE-PRICING OF 12 MONTH MOORING PERMITS 2012 MARKET AREA REPORT FOR WEST LANCASHIRE Introduction This report provides the rationale for mooring price decisions for 2012. For explanation of the method and relevant policy, please see our overview report at www.britishwaterways.co.uk/media/documents/Moorings_Report_Overview_Report.pdf. Profiles of privately operated sites in the area are appended. We researched and compared their prices with the BW rates to inform our judgements but because the date is commercially sensitive this has not been included. Local market overview The Lancaster Canal has a fairly clearly defined market for moorings. It is the north-western extremity of the BW network from Preston to Tewitfield, running through the popular locations of Garstang, Lancaster and Carnforth. Although accessible to the rest of the network via the Ribble Link which is seasonal (April to October), the large majority of boaters do not use it and confine their cruising to the Lancaster. The moorings in Glasson Basin accommodate sea going craft and serve the coastal as well as inland boating market. The BW directly managed sites in the area are as follows Site name Site capacity (berths) Salwick Wharf 13 Stone Chimney Wharf 5 Pendle 24 Bilsborrow Wharf 11 Dimples Bridge 20 Tythe Barn Garstang 14 Moss Lane (South) 11 Moss Lane (North) 21 Montgomeries Wharf 6 Cabus Nook 8 Ratcliffe Wharf 11 Lodge Hill Galgate 4 Hest Bank 22 Bolton Le Sands 3 Tewitfield 3 Glasson Arm 9 Glasson Basin 1 Total capacity 186 West Lancs 2012 Page 1 of 6 Supply assessment In addition to these BW long term moorings, there are a total of 152 online and 768 offline basin or marina moorings in the same area; this includes the marinas at Barton Grange and Tewitfield. Thus the total market comprises around 1000 berths. As part of our online mooring reduction policy, we have closed 16 berths on our directly managed L1 sites. The attractive rural character of the area and its absence of locks still proves a strong draw for customers and demand for moorings on the Lancaster Canal remains high. Demand assessment Occupancy, measured by the number of permit holders divided by site capacity, currently averages 80% across BW sites in the group. Analysis of auctioned vacancies The table below summarises the results of auction sales up until August 2011. More recent results can be found on www.bwmooringvacancies.com.

Challenges to Pricing Decisions We have made the pricing recommendations below based on thorough market research. It is our policy, set at Board level, to set prices which reflect market supply and demand and to compete fairly with private operators. BW has neither powers nor duty to provide subsidised moorings. If you feel that the price decision made for your mooring site is unjustified having read this report, we ask that you write to the National Moorings Manager explaining why you think it is the case. Please explain the reasoning for your challenge including evidence such as price and descriptions of nearby privately operated mooring sites. We will not amend the price without this evidence. We will consider your representation and respond in writing within two working weeks. If you are not satisfied with the response, you may request that the matter is dealt with through our formal complaints procedure. West Lancs 2012 Page 3 of 6 Pricing conclusions The table below summarises our site-by-site conclusions across the area. Prices include VAT at 20%. 2011 Price from Site Name Notes on pricing decision Price April 2012 There have been two vacancies auctioned at this site which received no bids. Basic towpath site with no Salwick Wharf £75.18 £75.18 facilities only limited parking available. Price held. Small offside site which is currently full, with two recent vacancies selling through the auction process, one at above the guide. With 50% of auctions going above guide an increase would be expected but as a local marina Stone Chimney Wharf £82.69 £82.69 charges a similar fee with all of its facilities, there will be no increase to keep the pricing in-line with local private operators. A high number of vacancies have been sold through the auction process (7) although these have all been below Pendle Moorings £66.05 £66.05 the guide price. Facilities at this site including parking and water are provided by a third party who charges an annual fee on top of the mooring permit. Very popular site in the heart of Bilsborrow Village with facilities close by. Five vacancies have sold at this site, Bilsborrow Wharf £95.59 £97.50 one above the guide. A small increase of 2% keeps the pricing at a comparable level of a local private operator. Mooring site is located in the heart of Garstang with all its amenities. Turnover on site is above average on the Lancaster Canal and of the 9 vacancies sold, only 1 sold above the guide, all the others were around the reserve price but they all sold which indicates demand for the site. There is large variation in price charged by Dimples Bridge £76.25 £76.25 the local private operators in the Garstang area, and the price at this site already sits at the higher end of the range. An increase would price this mooring above this range and considering that the site does not have any other facilities, this could not be justified. Low turnover on site means that only two vacancies have been sold through the auction process and both of these were below guide. There is large variation in price charged by the local private operators in the Garstang Tythe Barn Garstang £81.62 £81.62 area, and the price at this site already sits at the higher end of the range. An increase would price this mooring above this range and considering that the site does not have any other facilities, could not be justified. Low turnover on site means that only three vacancies have been sold through the auction process, however a Moss Lane (South) £92.90 £92.90 couple of were advertised twice before they sold. There is large variation in price charged by the local private operators in the Garstang area, and the price at this site already sits at the higher end of the range. Price held. Moss Lane (North) £85.92 £85.92 In-line with its sister site, Moss Lane South which is in very close proximity. Four vacancies have sold through the auction process and only 1 at above guide. Hold price in-line with the Montgomeries Wharf £83.77 £83.77 mooring at Tythe Barn which is of a similar standard as both offside with no on-line facilities. Numerous vacancies have been advertised with no interest, so the price will remain at the same level as 2011. Cabus Nook (Houghton) £69.82 £69.82 Facilities at this site including road access, parking and water are provided by a third party who charges an annual fee on top of the mooring permit. West Lancs 2012 Page 4 of 6 2011 Price from Site Name Notes on pricing decision Price April 2012 Very Popular offside site with very low turnover. Only one vacancy has sold through the auction process and Ratcliffe Wharf £92.90 £93.83 this was at a slightly higher rate than the guide price. This site will be subject to a small increase, which keeps the mooring in line with other BW sites of a similar standard on the Lancaster Canal. Very little auction data so unable to draw conclusions. Taking into account a nearby Marina’s prices and the Lodge Hill Galgate £79.48 £80.27 difference in facilities only a small increase will be applied.

August 2016 1. Introduction This study forms part of the evidence base for the Wyre Local Plan. It details research undertaken by the Wyre council planning policy team into the role and function of the borough’s settlements, describing why this work has been undertaken, the methodology used and the results. Understanding the nature of different settlements and the relative roles they can play is critical to developing and delivering local plan strategy and individual policies. With this in mind, the aim of this Settlement Study is two-fold. First, to establish a baseline position in terms of understanding the level of economic and social infrastructure present in each settlement and how this might influence the appropriate nature and scale of development. It will provide evidence for discussions with stakeholders and developers about the nature of supporting infrastructure needed to ensure that future development is sustainable. Second, to identify, analyse and rank the borough’s settlements according to a range of indicators, and by doing so to inform the definition of the local plan settlement hierarchy (see Section 3 below).

The Government is pursuing a number of policies and initiatives that aim to empower local communities and give citizens the opportunity to help shape decisions about the way public services are designed and delivered to them. As part of this agenda the Government recognises that democratically elected town and parish councils - the most local tier of local government - can play a key role in meeting this aim.

Somewhere in their heritage and upbringing these characteristics were dominant. How I wish they were still alive to enjoy with us the new bits of family history we are finding, for clues they passed along have led to many fascinating discoveries. These two brothers, Ab and Ed as they were called, only children of SE (Ed) and Aubin Fry Clarkson, actually knew a bit more about some of their mother’s family lines. This has led to exciting finds on Fry, Anderson, Bolling, Markham, Cole, Rolfe, Fleming, Champe, Slaughter, Walker, Micou, Hutchins, Brooks, Winthrop, Pintard, and even our honored bloodline to the Princess Pocahontas and her powerful father Powhatan! These families were early in Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, and Virginia.

Context – page 3 3. What is a Settlement? – page 4 4. Why do settlements needs boundaries? – page 4 5. Principles – page 6 6. Identifying Settlements – page 7 7. Commentary – page 9 2 Publication Draft Wyre Local Plan 2017 - Settlement Boundary Background Paper 1. Introduction The 1999 Wyre Local Plan indicated distinct boundaries around a number of settlements which distinguished the settlement from the countryside around them. Producing the Publication Draft Wyre Local Plan 2017 has provided an opportunity to review the current boundaries and consider whether or not additional settlements should be defined by a clear boundary. This background paper describes the rationale for defining boundaries and the process undertaken to produce the boundaries in the Publication Draft Wyre Local Plan 2017. 2. Context The borough of Wyre is characterised by an urbanised peninsular north and west of Blackpool and a large rural hinterland. The peninsular is largely framed by the coast, Wyre estuary and the boundaries of Fylde and Blackpool. It consists of the settlements of Fleetwood, Cleveleys Thornton, Normoss and Poulton-le-Fylde, with areas of green belt providing a degree of separation between the urbanised areas. The rural area contains a small number of larger settlements such as Garstang, Knott-End and Catterall, plus a number of smaller villages, hamlets, scattered small-scale residential developments and agricultural buildings. Policy SP5 of the 1999 Wyre Local Plan identifies Main Rural Settlements whose boundaries are defined on the 1999 Wyre Local Plan Proposals Map.
