Technical Paper 5
Planning Cumbria Cumbria and Lake District Joint Structure Plan 2001 – 2016 Technical Paper 5 Landscape Character Preface to Technical Paper 5 Landscape Character 1. The Deposit Structure Plan includes a policy (Policy E33) on landscape character, while the term landscape character is also used in other policies. It is important that there is clear understanding of this term and how it is to be applied in policy terms. 2. This report has been commissioned by the County Council from CAPITA Infrastructure Consultancy in Carlisle. It is currently not endorsed by the County Council. On receipt of comments the County Council will re draft the report and then publish it as a County Council document. The final version will replace two previous publications: Technical paper No 4 (1992) on the Assessment of County Landscapes and the Cumbria Landscapes Classification (1995). 3. The report explains how landscape has been characterised in Cumbria (outside the National Parks) using landscape types and provides details of the classification into 37 landscape types and sub types. A recent review of the classification of County Landscapes (now termed Landscapes of County Importance) and their detailed boundaries are also included. 4. It should be noted that this report does not constitute Structure Plan Policy. It provides background information to enable the policy to be implemented and monitored. 5. Comments on this report should be sent to: Mike Smith Countryside and Landscape Officer Cumbria County Council County Offices Kendal Cumbria LA9 4RQ Tel: -

1 MPCP(20)28 Church Commissioners Mission, Pastoral
MPCP(20)28 Church Commissioners Mission, Pastoral and Church Property Committee Closed Church of Croglin St John (Diocese of Carlisle) Representations Concerning a draft Pastoral (Church Buildings Disposal) Scheme Note by Harvey Howlett Summary (i) The Committee is invited to consider one representation against and one letter of comment concerning a draft Pastoral (Church Buildings Disposal) Scheme providing for the sale of the closed church building of Croglin St John and part of the annexed land for residential use. (ii) The representors against strongly objects to the conversion of the church building because of the impact on the surrounding open churchyard. He argues that the church’s desire for capital is being put in front of the wishes of the dead and that there is a distinct lack of respect being shown to those buried who are under the protection of the church. (iii) The letter of comment from the Parish Council notes that whilst the Council would have preferred to see the building remain in community use there has not been sufficient interest from within the local community to take on a project of this kind. (iv) The Diocese has confirmed that they wish the draft Scheme to proceed notwithstanding the representation. The Dioceses recognise that they have a responsibility of care and respect to those buried in the churchyard, and to their families, but that there is similarly a statutory responsibility laid on them to secure a suitable and sustainable future for the church building itself. They argue that the proposed scheme successfully resolves the tension in handling these competing responsibilities, through keeping to an absolute minimum the area of land sold with the church and ensuring that there is appropriate access into the retained churchyard for visitors and on the occasion of new burials. -

NEWSLETTER No. 26 – WINTER 2019
NEWSLETTER No. 26 – WINTER 2019 1. From the Chairman Seasons Greetings to all our members. We have a new programme for a new year. I hope that everyone will find something of interest in it. CVBG has been in existence since 2013. Many members joined in that year and have been regular attenders at events. New members are joining all the time. Over the six or seven years, we have acquired much experience of a wide variety of building types and materials. Many of our newer members come with a great deal of knowledge of vernacular buildings and/or live in a traditional house and want to know more about it. With this in mind, the events at the start of the year are based indoors. We have learned from experience that the winter months are not the best time to work outdoors. Along the Lines, in January and February,all members will have the chance to contribute to a publication or display, by using a photograph, drawing or description of a building in their part of Cumbria. The end result will be a booklet or an illustrated map. Please make every effort to join in this project. We have by now, had sufficient experience of Cumbria's vernacular architecture to be able to publish material, either for general readers, or as contributions to other societies' journals. One of the stated aims of CVBG is to “increase enjoyment and understanding of the county's traditional buildings”. We can share our discoveries with a wider public. To help in this regard, we are investing in ISBN numbers so that our publications will be recognised. -

Religious History
Department of History, Lancaster University Victoria County History: Cumbria Project Briefing Note No. 4 Checklist of Sources: Religious History These notes are intended to complement VCH national guidance notes on ‘Religious History’ and should be read in conjunction with them: http://www.victoriacountyhistory.ac.uk/local- history/writing-parish-history/religious-history The sources available to you will depend in part on whether your township/parish lay before 1856 in the Diocese of Carlisle (northern Cumbria, north of the Derwent – Dunmail Raise – Stainmore line) or in the Archdeaconry of Richmond, which formed part of the Diocese of Chester from 1541 (southern Cumbria, south of that boundary). 1. Starting points CW1, CW2, CW3: these contain numerous articles on individual places of worship, many of which are well-researched and provide useful data.
