ST19 5DW– APPLICANT – MR JOHN WAINWRIGHT – PARISH – PENKRIDGE Councillor Raven spoke as a ward member on behalf of the neighbour at no.6 and requested that the application was refused, on the grounds that The siting of the development would be likely to prejudice the amenity of the adjoining properties because it would lead to overlooking and loss of privacy, contrary to policy EQ9 of the adopted Core Strategy. Councillor Lawrence considered there were not sufficient reasons to refuse Page 3 of 120 25 July 2019 the application. Councillor Cox commented that on the site visit the proposal was viewed from no.6 and no.8 and there was no reason to think there would be interference with the amenities of no.6, the proposed ridge is lower than the existing and there would be no greater overlooking than at present. Councillor Mason asked for the photographs taken on the site visit to be shown and considered there would not be a significant loss of light to the adjoining conservatory. Councillor Holmes thought the loss of sunlight would be minimal and the proposal was acceptable. RESOLVED: that the application be approved as recommended 19/00017/OUT–LAND ON NORTH WEST SIDE, STAFFORD ROAD, PENKRIDGE – APPLICANT –STAFFORD ROAD LIMITED - PARISH - PENKRIDGE There was one speaker, John Reece, a neighbour, who spoke against the application. Councillor Jo Chapman was concerned about the lack of education places in Penkridge, had concerns about the potential access and commented that there was a very large amount of new development already in Penkridge. Councillor Ford was very concerned, as had fought the Bloor Homes application Councillor Cox commented that there was now a 5 year housing land supply, is another application on the site for 43 apartments and 11 bungalows. Education and other contributions detailed in the Officers report. There are no reasons to refuse, will vote in favour. Councillor Lees asked if the density could be conditioned. Councillor Mason said the description of the application was ‘up to 17’ and therefore a condition was not necessary. Councillor Steel commented that what is approved at outline is not always what is approved at reserved matters. Councillor Reade noted that it was a comprehensive report, supported approval as he thought an appeal would not be successful. It was recommended that condition 11 was deleted, as this could be added at reserved matters stage, if required. RESOLVED: that approval delegated to the Team Manger to issue the decision on completion of a satisfactory Section 106 Agreement and Unilateral Undertaking (UU). If these have not been achieved by 15 October 2019, this application will be referred back to the Planning Committee. Page 4 of 120 25 July 2019 Councillor Bates requested that it was recorded that he had abstained 19/00296/FUL – 2 POPLARS FARM WAY, COVEN, WOLVERHAMPTON, SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE. WV9 5EQ – APPLICANT –MR F BERTA – PARISH – BREWOOD & COVEN There were 2 speakers - Kathryn Robinson against and Mr F Berta (applicant (for) Councillor Sutton spoke as a ward member – she was opposed to the application on the grounds that it was contrary to Policies EQ1, EQ4, EQ11, Appendix 5 (Parking Standards) and Appendix 6 (Space About Dwellings). Proposal was over development of the plot, with a 4.5m long rear garden and no front garden, as it will all be parking space. Existing bungalow will lose its front garden for parking too. Questions the calculations on the size of amenity space. Councillor Bolton spoke as a ward member – insufficient area to accommodate a dwelling and the visual impact would be unacceptable. Councillor Holmes moved a motion for refusal; extra house is a different design and will spoil the character of the area. The hard standing proposed on the frontage could exacerbate flooding. Is over development of the plot. Councillor Cox seconded the motion for refusal. Proposed dwelling would be taller as all other dwellings on this side are bungalows. Out of character in the street scene. Councillor Mason supported refusal. RESOLVED: that the application was refused on the following grounds: The proposed dwelling due to its size, position, scale and massing would introduce an overly cramped form of development which would detract from the established character and appearance of this part of Coven which is largely defined by single storey properties set in spacious plots. As such it would conflict with Policy EQ11 of the Core Strategy and Section 12: Achieving well-designed places of the National Planning Policy Framework 13 MONTHLY UPDATE REPORT The Committee received the report of the Monitoring Officer informing the committee on key matters including: proposed training; changes in National policy; planning appeal decisions (with the latest planning appeal decision appended to the report); quarterly planning enforcement details; and, latest data from the Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government. The Committee also suggested an additional training around balance of planning applications, particularly around green belt and how this is dealt with at appeal. Councillor R Reade wished to formally thank planning officer Lucy Duffy for her work with regard to 62 Spirehill Lane. Councillor C Steel asked for clarification on published enforcement cases. Page 5 of 120 25 July 2019 RESOLVED: that the Committee note the update report The Meeting ended at: 19:30 CHAIRMAN Page 6 of 120 SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE - 20 AUGUST 2019 DETERMINATION OF PLANNING APPLICATIONS REPORT OF DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT TEAM MANAGER PART A – SUMMARY REPORT 1.

  • The Staffordshire Way About the Staffordshire Way
    Official Guide THE STAFFORDSHIRE WAY ABOUT THE STAFFORDSHIRE WAY Long Distance footpath The Staffordshire Way is a long distance footpath which has been established by Staffordshire County Council. It spans the length of the County for 92 miles from Mow Cop to Kinver Edge. The route is based wholly on public rights of way or paths on which access has been granted. The Way is not one of the national long distance routes designated by the Countryside Commission, but has been created by the County Council to respond to a recognised demand for access to the Contents Page countryside. The route explores some of Staffordshire’s loveliest scenery and several of its most interesting towns and villages, as well as linking country parks and picnic places. ABOUT THE STAFFORDSHIRE WAY 2 - 3 Easy accessibility for as many people as possible was an essential factor in determining the route, so the Way starts just to the north of Stoke-on-Trent and Location Map 4 later runs close to the West Midlands Conurbation. To many people the Key to Route Maps 5 Staffordshire Way is virtually ‘on the doorstep’. The first 32 mile section of the Way from Mow Cop to Rocester opened in the spring of 1977 and proved to be a great success, receiving a commendation in the British Tourist Authority’s ‘Come to Britain’ awards for the best new tourist facilities of the year. The second stage PART ONE - GRITSTONE COUNTRY of the Way to Cannock Chase opened two years later, and the route was completed AND THE CHURNET VALLEY in 1983.

  • Wrottesley Hall Wrottesley, South Staffordshire Wrottesley Hall, Holyhead Road, Wrottesley, South Staffordshire, Wv8 2Ht
    WROTTESLEY HALL WROTTESLEY, SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE WROTTESLEY HALL, HOLYHEAD ROAD, WROTTESLEY, SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE, WV8 2HT A rare opportunity afforded by the potential to acquire the entire freehold interest in Wrottesley Hall, a notable country mansion set within wonderfully landscaped grounds, which is currently arranged to provide three substantial houses, with the unique potential for the restoration of the property as one fine country seat or for the provision of extended family living in a beautiful setting. Codsall – 1.2 miles Tettenhall – 2.5 miles Wolverhampton – 4.5 miles Birmingham – 19.5 miles M54 (J3) – 5 miles (distances approximate) SITUATION Wrottesley Hall has a fine and distinguished history. The original Wrottesley Hall was built as the seat of Lord Wrottesley in 1696 and stood within grounds of around 2,000 acres. It was gutted by fire in 1897 and stood as a ruin until the fourth Lord Wrottesley built a smaller brick house on the same foundations in 1923. The original estate was broken up when the fifth Lord sold up in 1963 and moved to South Africa and in recent times the mansion was skilfully converted to provide three independent properties. The Hall has a particularly elegant elevation with a façade of much distinction with a Georgian influence and stone quoinings, a stone course to chamber joist level, dentil decoration to the eaves and a fine pediment which bears the Wrottesley Family Arms. The opportunity now exists for the amalgamation of the independent houses to form one country seat of exceptional note which will be, undoubtedly, one of the finest private residences within the region.
