Natural Environment & Green Spaces
Natural Environment and Green Spaces PROTECTING SPECIAL GREEN SPACES Sustainable development should be balanced with the protection of green spaces so that people can live, work, play and travel in healthy environments. Through Neighbourhood Plans, communities can designate areas of importance to them as ‘Local Green Space’ (LGS), giving them additional protection from development. We’re proposing 8 areas for designation and the location of each is identified on the ‘Local Green Space’ map. POLICY HBN1: LOCAL GREEN SPACE (LGS) DESIGNATION LGS1: Land at Bengeo Field. LGS2: Former railway line, Lower Bengeo. LGS3: Millmead Park. LGS4: St. Leonard’s Garden. LGS5: Woodland adjoining the Sacombe Road play and recreation area. LGS6: North Road Meadow. LGS7: Watermill Lane play and recreation area. LGS8: Wildlife Garden, Port Vale. New development within these designated areas will only be permitted where exceptional circumstances can be demonstrated in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework. LGS1: Land at Bengeo Field A 5.7 hectare section of Bengeo Field is proposed for ‘Local Green Space’ designation. The area is indicated by the green hatched section in the adjacent map. HERT4 residential development is scheduled for the adjoining site. In last year’s survey, more residents showed support for protecting this beautiful field from development than any other green space. The path through it to Chapmore End, used by hundreds of residents, is registered as an ‘Asset of Community Value’. Do you agree with the proposal to designate this section of Bengeo Field as ‘Local Green Space’? LGS2: Former railway line, Lower Bengeo This land runs parallel to Port Vale.

Hartham Common GAP 2018-23 Full Doc with Maps FINAL
HARTHAM COMMON GREENSPACE ACTION PLAN (GAP) 2018 – 2023 June 2018 v0 OVERVIEW i. Greenspace Action Plans (GAPs) Greenspace Actions Plans, or GAPs, are map-based management plans which specify activities that should take place on a site over a stated period of time; these activities will help to deliver the agreed aspirations which the site managers and stakeholders have identified for that site. ii. Public Engagement Engagement with stakeholders is at the centre of effective management planning on any site. An initial engagement period was held for Hartham Common in March 2018, to establish core aims and objectives for the site; these are reflected in Section 4. A second stage of engagement completed in May 2018 enabled stakeholders and users/local residents/wider public to comment on the proposed management actions for the site. An associated engagement response document, published online as an appendix to this plan, summarises comments received and any amendments made to the plan as a result. iii. Version Control Amendment Version Section Updated Details Date No Hartham Common GAP 2018-23 2 CMS June 2018 v0 CONTENTS 1.0 SITE SUMMARY 4 2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION 5 2.1 Location Map 5 2.2 Site Description Map 6 2.3 Constraints Map 7 3.0 INTRODUCTION 8 4.0 REVIEW OF PREVIOUS GAP 8 5.0 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES 9 6.0 FIVE YEAR ACTION PLAN 13 6.1 Annual Items 14 6.2 Year 1 Action Plan and Map 2018-19 17 6.3 Year 2 Action Plan and Map 2019-20 22 6.4 Year 3-5 Action Plans and Map 2020-23 27 7.0 MONITORING AND REVIEW 30 7.1 Monitoring the Action Plans 30
