Development in River Lugg Catchment Area Position Statement
Current Development in the River Lugg Catchment Area Position Statement 15th October 2019 Background Herefordshire is an area rich in its natural features of special value; its landscape, wildlife, recreation and health benefits, as well as its local economy. The River Wye and its tributaries are recognised as being of international importance for their unique character and wildlife, requiring the highest level of protection, management, enhancement and where appropriate, restoration. Herefordshire Council as the ‘competent authority’ under the Habitats Regulations, (The Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017) are legally required to assess the potential impacts of projects and plans, including planning applications, on internationally important sites which include the River Wye SAC (Special Area of Conservation). The River Lugg, which is a tributary of the River Wye and forms part of the designated site covering predominantly the north of the Herefordshire administrative area (refer to plan), is currently failing its conservation targets of phosphate levels as a result of water pollution from both ‘point’ source; in particular sewage outlets and ‘diffuse’ source; agricultural run-off. The council as the competent authority under the Habitats Regulations must carry out an ‘Appropriate Assessment’ on any relevant planning application that falls within the red and purple areas shown on the attached to plan and must be able to determine, with scientific certainty, that there would be no ‘Likely Significant Effect’ (LSE) on the designated site, from the project, either alone or in combination with other plans and projects, in order for the planning application to be granted. In making this assessment, the council has a legal requirement to consult Natural England and to have regard to their advice. -
River Wye SSSI Restoration Technical Report Finaldraftforconsultation
River Wye SSSI Restoration Technical Report –Draft for Comment Issued for comment January 2015 River Wye SSSI Restoration Technical Report_FinalDraftForConsultation Executive summary Jacobs was commissioned by the Environment Agency to produce separate Technical Reports for the restoration of the Lower Wye and River Lugg. In addition, Management Reports to complement each Technical Report were also produced by Jacobs. This is a Technical Report on the geomorphological assessment of the Lower Wye. The Lower River Wye and is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and a Special Area of Conservation (SAC). The river is designated due to the presence of grayling, freshwater pearl mussel, white-clawed crayfish, shad, otter, salmon, bullhead, lamprey, various invertebrate assemblages and water-crowfoot communities. The Upper and Middle Wye are also designated, however those reaches lie within Wales and were not investigated for this Technical Report. Reports for the Upper and Middle Wye will be produced separately by Natural Resources Wales (NRW). A combination of all reports will provide a catchment wide restoration strategy for all the SACs and SSSIs in the River Wye catchment. The Lower Wye mainly flows through England; however there is a section around Monmouth that is entirely within Wales. Here the right bank of the river is generally regulated by NRW, whilst the left bank is regulated by Natural England and the Environment Agency. Natural England has subdivided the Lower Wye SSSI into seven management units, six of which are assessed to be in ‘unfavourable condition’. This report is required to assess the current geomorphological condition and pressures on the Lower Wye to inform a Management Report that will provide suggestions to help achieve favourable condition in each of the management units. -

For generations animal husbandry and the farming of fruit, potatoes and hops have lent its lowland plain a rural charm and colour which vies for attention with the more dramatic uplands and gorges of the catchment periphery. Little wonder that much of the valley is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural beauty, or that its towns and villages swell with visitors during the spring and summer. -
The River Lugg at Mordiford
The River Lugg at Mordiford Following on from Andy Tatchell’s article about the Mordiford Mill and his work on restoring the Mill and its watercourses, I should like to continue the watercourses theme and write about the part played by the River Lugg in the history of Mordiford. At the end of the Ice Age the River Teme, swollen with water from melting ice, joined the Lugg and formed one mighty river flowing down the centre of what was to become Herefordshire and carved out a great wide valley. Later moraine blocked the outlet of the Teme and forced it to flow East to join the Severn. This left the wide valley we see today, underlain by sheets of gravel, to be occupied by the much smaller Lugg. Nowadays ¾ of the River Lugg is in Herefordshire while its catchment occupies ½ the county. Through most of post-Roman history bulk carriage was by water. There were 4 Parliamentary Navigation Acts to improve the state of the Wye and the Lugg (1662, 1695, 1727 and 1809). Water mills were the main statute matter of the 1665 Act, so it affected the Lugg greatly as it featured a greater incidence of water mills length for length than the Wye. Physically the Lugg is a very sinuous river so that many of the meanders would have posed great difficulties for the teams of bow hauliers, (there was never an intention to provide a horse-towing path for the Lugg) and these same meanders would have also restricted the dimensions of river craft. Consequently, it seems doubtful that some of the larger Wye trows could have ventured much beyond Lugg Mills and the lower reaches. -
