1.1 This Neighbourhood Plan is a new type of planning document prepared for the Shireoaks Parish Council on behalf of its residents. It is a legal planning policy document and once it has been ‘made’ by Bassetlaw District Council (BDC) it must be used by: A) Planners at Bassetlaw District Council in assessing planning applications B) Developers as they prepare planning application for submission to Bassetlaw District Council. 1.2 Planning applications must be decided in accordance with BDC’s suite of planning policies (including this Neighbourhood Plan) unless material considerations indicate otherwise.1 These applications should reflect the character of Shireoaks and this neighbourhood Plan. 1.3 To carry this much influence in planning decisions this Neighbourhood Plan will be examined by an independent examiner who will check that it has been prepared in accordance with planning law, be in conformity with the National Planning Policy Framework, Bassetlaw’s 2011 Core Strategy and be approved by a simple majority of votes (i.e. over 50% of those voting) in a local referendum. 1.4 This Plan has been prepared by Shireoaks Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group on behalf of Shireoaks Parish Council. It covers the whole of the Parish of Shireoaks and sets out planning policies for Shireoaks for the period 2016-2028. 1.5 Map 1 shows the extent of the designated Neighbourhood Plan Area. 1 In accordance with NPPF paragraph 12 4 Shireoaks Neighbourhood Development Plan 2016-2028 Map 1: Shireoaks Neighbourhood Area 5 Shireoaks Neighbourhood Development Plan 2016-2028 Why do we want a Neighbourhood Plan? 1.6 Shireoaks is situated 2.5 miles from the town of Worksop. Whilst this proximity affords residents reasonable access to amenities in the town, consultation feedback has revealed significant concern about the impact of the proposed growth of Worksop on the character and identity of the village. Shireoaks current population is 1420; there has been a 23% increase in the population since 2001.2 1.7 Bassetlaw District Council’s Core Strategy 2011 included Shireoaks within sub regional centre of Worksop. The sub-regional centre is to be the focus for major housing, employment and town centre retail growth. Policy CS2 makes provision for at least 32% (1993 houses) of the District’s housing requirement to be delivered at Worksop and at least 45% (48 ha) of the District’s employment land needs.3 Outline planning permission was granted for the development of 175 houses and 15.4 hectares of employment land on the north eastern edge of Shireoaks village in January 2016. The boundary of the site is shown on Map 2. This proposal generated significant concern amongst local people and the Neighbourhood Plan process is seen as a way to ensure that this sort of development on this scale does not diminish the qualities of the rest of the Plan area. 1.8 There have

Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information.
