River Meon at Manor Farm, Exton
River Meon at Manor Farm, Exton An advisory visit carried out by the Wild Trout Trust – May 2012 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a Wild Trout Trust advisory visit undertaken on a 0.5-km stretch of the River Meon at Manor Farm, Exton, Hampshire. The river is managed by Mr. Simon Martin and is occasionally let for paying day rods via an agent. The request for the visit was made by Mr. Martin, who is keen to explore options for managing the river. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Mr. Martin. Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Upstream boundary SU617212 Downstream boundary SU613208 River Meon, Manor Farm 2 2. Catchment overview The River Meon rises from the Hampshire chalk aquifer near the village of East Meon and flows south for approximately 37km before entering the sea at Hill Head. The river enjoys a steep gradient for a chalk river, falling approximately 120m from source to sea. The middle and upper reaches of the river flow over deposits of Lower Chalk, which is less permeable than the Upper Chalk geology predominantly found in the rest of East Hampshire. As a result, the Meon tends to have a greater flow range compared to other southern chalk streams. At Exton (the location of this visit) the river is flowing over chalk, but further downstream (near Soberton) there is a significant change in geology to deposited material, principally London Clay and Reading Sand. -
101 Report to Planning Committee Date 11 August 2016 by Director Of
Agenda Item 10 Report PC39/16 Report to Planning Committee Date 11 August 2016 By Director of Planning Local Authority Winchester City Council Application Number SDNP/16/02757/FUL Applicant Mr Armstrong Application Demolition of part of Vernon House, new road and 5 new detached houses comprising 4 no.3 bedroom and 1 no.5 bedroom dwelling. Address Vernon House, Warnford Road, Corhampton, SO32 3ND. Recommendation: That planning permission be refused for the reasons set out in Paragraph 10.1 of this report. Executive Summary The application site is located in the village of Corhampton in the Meon Valley. It comprises an area the large rear garden land of a dwelling known as Vernon House and adjacent land to the south. It covers 0.27ha. Vernon House fronts onto Warnford Road (the A32), which runs through the village. It is in a residential area where there are dwellings to the east, west and south, whilst there is a haulage yard known as Houghtons Yard immediately to the north. An appeal has recently been allowed at Houghtons Yard for it to be redeveloped for 8 dwellings (Appendix 2). The application proposes 5 dwellings. All of them would be two storey detached properties and would range from 2 to 4 bedrooms. They would have a traditional character and appearance. They would be accessed via a new shared private drive alongside Vernon House. This would involve widening the existing driveway by demolishing part of Vernon House, which would result in this dwelling becoming a 2 bedroom property. Concerns from local residents and the Parish Council include impact upon surrounding amenities, drainage, and pedestrian access. -
