  • Bourne Holdings, Broadway Road, Windlesham
    2018/0709 Reg Date 07/08/2018 Lightwater LOCATION: BOURNE HOLDINGS, BROADWAY ROAD, WINDLESHAM, LIGHTWATER, GU18 5SH PROPOSAL: Removal of condition 7 of 94/0998 requiring agricultural occupancy of bungalow at Bourne Holdings and discharge of section 52 agreement under 87/1324 restricting use of the site to agriculture and the parking of two HGV vehicles. TYPE: Relaxation/Modification APPLICANT: Ms Gostage OFFICER: Ross Cahalane The application would normally be determined under the Council’s Scheme of Delegation, however, it has been called in for determination by the Planning Applications Committee at the request of Cllr Gandhum, as the property is subject to an agricultural tie. RECOMMENDATION: GRANT 1.0 SUMMARY 1.1 This application seeks permission for the removal of Condition 7 of 94/0998 requiring agricultural occupancy of the bungalow at Bourne Holdings. This condition requires occupants of the dwelling to be employed locally in agriculture or in forestry. The application also seeks discharge of the Section 52 legal agreement under 87/1324, which restricts the use of the site as a whole to agriculture and the parking of two HGV vehicles. No operational development is proposed. 1.2 The report concludes that as no interest from persons compliant with the occupancy terms required by the planning condition has been identified through the marketing of the property for sale, Bourne Holdings no longer requires an imposed occupancy condition as part of 94/0998. The dwelling no longer forms part of an agricultural holding since 2007, nor is it considered required for occupation by a person employed in agriculture in the local area.

  • Geoarch Report 2010/20
    GeoArch Report 2010/20 Analysis of bog iron ore from Littleton Manor, Reigate, Surrey Dr Tim Young 6th August 2010 Analysis of bog iron ore from Littleton Manor, Reigate, Surrey Dr T.P. Young Abstract Large deposits of bog iron ore were found at this site, forming lenticular bodies of moderate lateral extent. The ore represents the product of in-situ growth of iron and manganese minerals within a heterogeneous subsoil. In hand-specimen the ores show small nodules of dense, dark, oxides, typically up to about 2mm across, set in a network of soft brown oxides. Cavities between the iron oxides are often tubular and are filled with soft clay. At high magnification the nodules can be seen to comprise zones of variable development of the iron and manganese minerals giving a mottled or pelletal texture. The densest oxide growths tend to be of iron oxides, with manganese more abundant in the more marginal parts of the concretions. The amount of sediment included within the concretions is variable, with a marked lack of coarse sand in some. The chemical composition of the ores shows moderate enrichment in iron, manages and phosphorus. The trace elements vanadium, chromium, cobalt and nickel are also all moderately elevated. In contrast to many bog iron ores from organic environments, uranium is not enriched and the thorium:uranium ratio is similar to that for typical clays. The rare earth elements (REE) show an upper-crust normalised profile that shows only minor relative enrichment of the middle REE. The ore is interpreted as having been formed from oxidation of iron- rich groundwaters produced through weathering of sediments of the Lower Greensand Group, which crop out on higher ground just to the north of the Littleton Manor Farm locality.

Photo by Alan Hall to whom I owe an apology for omitting the scale (it wouldn’t fit the page). (see p17) ASHTEAD ROMAN VILLA AND TILEWORKS David Bird The fourth main season of excavation on Ashtead Common was undertaken by the Society’s Roman Studies Group between 26th August and 14th September. The weather was very kind and a larger digging team could be accommodated than previously because work took place in well-separated areas (numbers are restricted by nature conservation requirements). As a result, it was possible to achieve all the objectives for the year and indeed exceed them. The enclosure wall for the villa was found to extend at least as far west as just to the north of the bath-house attached to the villa; the phasing of the villa is now much better understood; a rough tile-paved area was found that may prove to be part of a tileworks structure; and the remnants of a tile kiln were found. As before, trench supervisors were David Calow, Nikki Cowlard and Frank Pemberton; Alan Hall controlled site recording and Margaret Broomfield was finds supervisor. Many other team regulars play a crucial part.

  • Core Strategy & Development Management Policies
    Core Strategy & Development Management Policies Proposed Submission Document July 2010 Great Place • Great Community • Great Future Core Strategy and Development Management Policies Development Plan Document Proposed Submission Document 1 Surrey Heath Core Strategy and Development Management Pre-Submission Document 2010 Regional Spatial Strategy At the time of drafting this document the government had clearly signalled its intention to abolish Regional Spatial Strategies (RSS). The RSS for the south east is the “South East Plan”. Whilst the announcement of intention to abolish is a material consideration, the South East Plan remains at this time a part of the development plan for Surrey Heath. In taking the Core Strategy and Development Management Policies Development Plan Document forward to pre-submission the Council has had regard to the announcement by the Secretary of State and advice from the Planning Inspectorate. Accordingly it has considered which of its policies turn on or refer to South East Plan policy. In respect of policies for the economy, employment, retail, infrastructure, green infrastructure and biodiversity whilst these may rest on South East Plan policy the evidence base behind those policies together with the Councils own evidence base, is considered sufficient to support and justify on a local basis the policy approach being taken in this document in respect of these matters. In respect of housing land supply the Council has decided not to continue with the housing targets contained in the South East Plan. This reflects the Councils long standing view that whilst a high level of need for housing exists the constraints within the Borough make it difficult to accommodate this need without harm to the environment and in particular the Thames Basin Heaths Special Protection Area.

In addition, studies of other contemporary complexes frequently excluded from the classification of oppida have revealed remarkable similarities with the traditionally defined territorial oppida.
