  • Consultation Statement for the Sele Neighbourhood Area Plan
    CONSULTATION STATEMENT FOR THE SELE NEIGHBOURHOOD AREA PLAN INTRODUCTION 1. This Statement has been prepared to append the Draft version of the Sele Neighbourhood Area Plan (“The Plan”) for submission to the relevant local planning authority, East Herts District Council under the Neighbourhood Planning Regulations 2012 (“The Regulations”). 2. A consultation statement is a statutory document of the Neighbourhood Planning process. The Regulations of 2012, Part 5 Paragraph 15 (2) define a “consultation statement” as a document that: a) Details of the persons and bodies who were consulted about the proposed neighbourhood development plan; b) Explains how they were consulted; c) Summarises the main issues and concerns raised by the persons consulted; d) Describes how these issues and concerns have been considered and, where relevant, addressed in the Neighbourhood Development Plan. 3. The consultation process was necessary in order to: a) Publicise and explain the Neighbourhood Planning process among Sele ward residents; b) Seek the opinion of the public on the improvements needed in the area, and feedback on the proposed objectives and policies of the Plan. 4. The document sets out the steps taken to engage and consult with the community in Sele ward and presents how the opinion of the public has influenced the writing and amendment of the Sele Neighbourhood Plan. 5. Hertford Town Council would like to sincerely thank all those who have contributed to the production of the Sele Neighbourhood Area Plan. The volunteers for this project spent many hours gathering data and proposing objectives and solutions for the Neighbourhood Plan, under the guidance of the Planning Consultant, Jacqueline Veater.

    Parish Council Offices Lockleys Drive Welwyn Hertfordshire AL6 9NT 01438 716667 www.welwynpc.org.uk Louise St John Howe Programme Officer PO Services PO Box 10965 Sudbury Suffolk CO10 3BF 4th November 2019 Dear Louise Ref: Response to Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council’s Documents EX156 and EX160. Following the invitation from the Inspector to all Representors to comment on Welwyn Hatfield Local Plan Documents, this response has been compiled by Welwyn Parish Council in conjunction with Welwyn Planning and Amenity Group. Welwyn Parish Council have made no comment on documents EX154, EX157, EX158 and EX159 as they relate to locations outside of Welwyn Parish. We regard EX156 and EX160 as being of great significance and importance in helping determine future development in the area. Both documents cover the whole of Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council’s domain but as far as possible, we have restricted our comments to those sections of the documents that refer to Welwyn Parish Council’s geographic area. INTRODUCTION This report is Welwyn Parish Council’s (WPC) response to Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council’s (WHBC) Documents EX1561 & EX1602, submitted following invitation from the Inspector of the WHBC Local Plan. We welcome WHBC’s initiative in commissioning these reports following the Inspector’s comments3 that protection of settlement pattern was not a statutory purpose of the Green Belt and his suggestion of considering specific designations to provide protection for breaks between settlements rather than relying on Green Belt policy. WPC greatly appreciates the opportunity to comment on these two reports, which we regard as being potentially of great importance in determining future development in the area.

  • East Herts District Plan
    East Herts District Plan Strategic March 2017 Land Availability Assessment 1.0 Introduction 1.1 National planning policy requires all Local Planning Authorities to produce a technical study known as the Strategic Land Availability Assessment (SLAA) in order to identify sites with potential for future development. The SLAA has informed work on the District Plan and Neighbourhood Planning. It has also assisted with the identification of future land supply. 1.2 The SLAA is a ‘live’ document in that it should be updated on a regular basis in order to reflect changing circumstances. Therefore, this version of the SLAA presents the most up to date position as at March 2017. 2.0 Methodology 2.1 Paragraphs 019 to 021 of the PPG identify that, when undertaking a SLAA, sites should be considered against three criteria, namely; suitability, availability and achievability. These terms are explained below. Suitability The assessment of suitability takes into account a range of policy constraints. These include environmental and heritage designations, impact on landscape and character, flooding and Green Belt / Rural Area Beyond the Green Belt. Availability A site is considered to be available if there are no legal or ownership issues which would prevent the site coming forward for development. Achievability Achievability is effectively a judgement about the economic viability of a site, and the capacity of the developer to complete the development over a certain period of time. 2.2 Having assessed each site against the three criteria, a conclusion can be reached. If a site is considered to be suitable, available and achievable, then it is regarded as being ‘deliverable’.

  • A Brief History of Waltham Cross
    History of Waltham Cross Eleanor Monument The resting place of Queen Eleanor during her funeral procession was known as Waltham and the location was already known to Edward l as he, like former kings, hunted in Waltham Forest. The abbey was built 350 years earlier, during the reign of King Harold. When Edward died at Burgh on The Sands in Cumbria his body was kept at the Abbey for five weeks before its interment at Westminster Abbey in London. It is believed that the location chosen for the monument was a hamlet a mile away from Waltham. It was a main road at a crossroad point where travellers would be able to view it from several directions. In 1720, Stamford Vicar William Stukeley, made a drawing of the monument at Waltham Cross and presented it to the newly founded Society of Antiquaries. They undertook works to protect it from the increasing traffic. In 1795, Sir George Prescott tried to have it moved to Theobalds Park, but failed after official intervention. The first major restoration took place in 1833 by WB Clark, but these improvements lasted just 50 years and further work was required in the 1880s. Eleanor Cross Road was bombed during World War Two, and although the monument didn’t suffer a direct hit it was damaged by the resulting tremors. Following the war, in 1950 a major restoration took place. The statutes were relocated briefly to Cheshunt library and for a time they were stored in Cedars Park conservatory before being loaned long term to the Victoria and Albert Museum for safe keeping.

  • Royal Connections to Dunstable
    Royal DUNSTABLE Connections One of twelve resting places for Queen Eleanor's funeral procession in 1290. Henry I established a town around the crossroads in Dunstable around 1109 and by 1123 had built a royal residence, to take advantage of the hunting grounds. The site is now occupied by the Old Palace Lodge Hotel, Kingsbury Court and the Norman King pub (which was sadly burned down in August 2011). On the wall outside the Norman King was the following inscription: "On the site of this inn and the adjoining ground, Henry I had a palace built where he regularly stayed from 1109, and which was known as Kingsbury." Henry founded a priory (a small monastery) in Dunstable in 1131. He granted the prior control of Dunstable Priory - founded 1131 : Chris Smith the town. However he had already promised the townspeople the same freedoms as the citizens of In 1291 the King ordered crosses to be erected to mark the London.
