Draft Bassetlaw Local Plan NOVEMBER 2020 Draft Bassetlaw Local Plan NOVEMBER 2020 DRAFT Foreword This new draft Bassetlaw Local Plan provides an ambitious, innovative and positive planning framework to shape the future of the District to 2037 and identifies where, when and how new development will be delivered. Bassetlaw is undergoing huge change, over this Local Plan’s timeframe it is our ambition that it will become a modern and prosperous District. Ensuring that Bassetlaw has robust, effective and up-to date planning policies that secure our long-term economic future which continue to adapt and embrace changing circumstances, such as climate change, a growing population, and that deliver the Government’s required housing and growth targets will be key to our long term achievements. Providing for the Government’s commitment to housing growth is extremely challenging. This Plan makes good use of brownfield land; this has been showcased in the way we are promoting town centre regenerations, improvements to neighbourhoods and re-use of former power station sites. But to meet the Government’s targets other land is required. By planning for growth through this Plan we can make sure that housing and businesses are accompanied by the right infrastructure to help our communities sustainably grow. Growth will have an emphasis on healthy lifestyles and active travel; this draft Plan provides for more walking and cycling routes, new parks and open spaces, sports facilities and improvements to health facilities to the benefit of existing and new communities. Ensuring our communities are better able to make the transition to a low carbon lifestyle is a vital part of this Plan. A new Green Energy Hub at High Marnham will secure Bassetlaw’s place as a centre for green energy and technology development, bringing inward investment and better paid, higher skilled jobs. Significant tree planting, flood mitigation, new wildlife habitats and the start of the new low carbon Bassetlaw Garden Village will build in climate resilience for the future. This draft Plan has been shaped with the support and involvement of local communities, landowners, businesses, infrastructure partners and many others - all who share the desire to plan for an innovative, positive, prosperous future for the District by meeting the need for new homes, a growing economy and the protection of our natural environment and heritage assets over the next 17 years or so. Building on the successful consultation in January this is the next step in our conversation with local people, businesses and our communities. As the Plan develops it is vital that people take this opportunity to look at what is being proposed and have their say.

This document is the written statement of the Local Plan and should be read alongside the draft Local Plan Policies Map which provides a visual representation of the Local Plan policies. 1.1.2 The draft Local Plan provides an important strategy for Bassetlaw District. It will play a leading role in delivering sustainable development in appropriate locations and in helping to protect the countryside, important green spaces and the built and natural environment from inappropriate development, thus enhancing the quality of life for people and our communities. 1.2 What does the Local Plan cover? 1.2.1 The Local Plan covers the whole of Bassetlaw District as shown in Figure 1. The Local Plan may be supplemented by more detailed policies and proposals in neighbourhood plans where these are prepared for parts of the District. 1.2.2 The Local Plan explains how many new homes and businesses are needed, where they should be located and how and when they will be delivered. It sets out how the town centres will be supported and improved and also identifies any additional infrastructure (such as new roads and schools) which is needed to support development and explains how this infrastructure will be delivered. 1.2.3 Once adopted, the Local Plan will replace the Bassetlaw Core Strategy and Development Management Policies DPD (2011)1. Appendix 1 provides a Policies Schedule which shows which Core Strategy policies have been replaced by those in this Plan. On adoption the Local Plan will, along with ‘made’ neighbourhood plans and adopted minerals and waste local plans form the overall development plan for the District. 1.2.4 The Local Plan is the starting point for considering whether planning applications (apart from for minerals and waste development) can be approved. Decisions on planning applications will be taken in accordance with its policies, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The Local Plan covers a range of issues and it is likely that several policies will be relevant to any proposed development. It is important therefore that the plan is read as a whole rather than considering policies in isolation. 4 www.bassetlaw.gov.uk Draft Bassetlaw Local Plan, November 2020 5 1.3 How has the Local Plan been prepared? 1.3.1 Following the adoption of the Core Strategy in 20111, the Council began the production of a Site Allocations Development Plan Document which aimed to identify strategic business and residential allocations to deliver the Core Strategy. The following changes in circumstances, meant this document was not pursued: • the revocation of the East Midlands Regional Spatial Strategy in April 2013 which meant that reliance on the Regional Spatial Strategy housing figure was no longer a valid approach to determine housing numbers for site allocations; • the publication of new national policy – the National Planning Policy Framework2 – firstly in 2012, and accompanying Planning Practice Guidance; which included several new requirements, including the need to have a five year housing land supply. This resulted in some of the Core Strategy policies being out of date; • the Council’s positive approach to neighbourhood planning introduced by the Localism Act 2011, to facilitate the delivery of neighbourhood plans including sustainable housing growth, particularly in the rural parts of the District 1.3.2 On that basis an evidence base review began in 2014 to inform a new Local Plan.

  • Advisory Visit Rivers Meden and Maun, Thoresby Estate
    Advisory Visit Rivers Meden and Maun, Thoresby Estate, Nottinghamshire January 2018 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit undertaken by Tim Jacklin of the Wild Trout Trust to the Rivers Meden and Maun on the Thoresby Estate, Nottinghamshire on 4th January, 2018. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Andrew Dobson (River Warden, Thoresby Estate) and Ryan Taylor (Environment Agency). Normal convention is applied throughout the report with respect to bank identification, i.e. the banks are designated left hand bank (LHB) or right hand bank (RHB) whilst looking downstream. 2.0 Catchment / Fishery Overview The River Meden rises to the north of Mansfield and flows east-north- eastwards through a largely rural catchment. The River Maun rises in the conurbation of Mansfield and flows north-eastwards past Ollerton to join the River Meden at Conjure Alders (SK6589872033). The rivers then separate again and re-join approximately 6km downstream near West Drayton (SK7027875118) to form the River Idle (a Trent tributary with its confluence at West Stockwith SK7896894718). Both rivers flow over a geology comprising sandstone with underlying coal measures and there is a history of extensive deep coal mining in the area. Table 1 gives a summary of data collected by the Environment Agency to assess the quality of the rivers for the Water Framework Directive. Both rivers appear to have a similar ecological quality and closer inspection of the categories which make up this assessment reveal that fish and invertebrates were both ‘high’ and ‘good’ for the Meden and Maun respectively in 2016.
