The Cottage, 21, Woodland Road, PATNEY Devizes Wilts SN10 3RD The Cottage, 21, Woodland Road, PATNEY Devizes Wilts SN10 3RD 16th May 2016 Dear Mr Wilmott, Re: PATNEY PLANNING APPLICATION No: 16/03703/FUL I write as the owner of The Cottage, 21, Woodland Road to support most firmly the above application to build at Woodland Road, Patney SN10 3RD a detached specialist dwelling for a disabled person, namely my 3 year old grand-daughter Sophia. In addition, I wish to challenge the Notification of Refusal of Full Planning (Ref No: 15/09830/FUL dated 30 Dec 2015) which gave 3 main reasons (see Paras 1-3 of Notification) to refuse this earlier application as well as recognising that the unique “personal circumstances set out by the Applicant are considered to amount to a relevant material consideration” (See Para 4 of Notification). The 3 reasons for refusal were: 1. Confliction with the Wiltshire Core Strategy (WCS) CPs 51 and 57 as well as Para 115 of the NPPF which “gives great weight to conserving the landscape of areas of outstanding beauty” (AONBs). This assessment conflicts with the North Wessex Downs AONB Director who visited the site last autumn and declared that the proposed site would have only limited impact on the settlement, provided that indigenous trees, hedges and shrubs were place in and around proposed area as well as sympathetic roof tiles and suitable wood-cladding being used. These recommendations are now comprehensively covered in great detail within the new Planning Application documents. 2. “The proposed development would harm the setting of the designated heritage asset at 21, Woodland Road” (ie – The Cottage). You will however note included in the new Planning Application is a firm rebuttal by a Heritage consultant with considerable experience in this sphere with photographs that clearly show that, with the existing thick hedging, mature trees and high bank in the bridleway to the North of the site, surrounding views of The Cottage (21, Woodland Road) will be affected in only a minimal way – indeed, it can be argued that the view Northwards from the village green would be enhanced by the proposed barn-like building, hence softening the existing view across the field to the exposed modern red-brick Southern gable-end of 2, Woodland Road immediately North of the bridleway referred to above. Furthermore, the sensitivity of this historic landscape setting has already been diminished due to the extant Planning Permission for the demolition of three neighbouring cottages (Nos 23, 25 and 27, Woodland Road, immediately North of The Cottage) and a garage block to make way for the development of three new houses. 3. The proposal conflicts with the settlement strategy of the WCS CPs 1, 2 and 18 as Patney has lost its previous status as a Small Village and is now regarded as Open Countryside with little perceived sustainable growth. This re-categorisation of Patney is challengeable, as also is the issue of sustainability in this age of wide motor vehicle ownership; for example, there is a thriving school in Chirton, half a mile from Patney and another school 3 miles distant in All Cannings which also possesses a village shop, a thriving pub and an active church. In the rural areas of the Vale of Pewsey, many parents drive miles to deliver children to school as well as carrying routine shopping, visiting GPs and other various tasks. The fact that a settlement has few facilities is of little relevance in the 21st Century. With regard to the mitigating “relevant material consideration” recognised in Para 4 of the Notification, Section 38(6) of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 confirms that Planning Applications for planning permission must be determined in accordance with the development plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. This is echoed in Para 196 of the NPPF. The NPPF is itself a material consideration as well as is the Equality Act 2010 and the very circumstances of this particular case. The Equality Act 2010 places public sector duties on Wiltshire Council in shaping policy and decision making, inter alia, with regard to the provision of suitable disabled housing in the county. As I mentioned in my earlier comments on the original Planning Application, this particular case is as much a Social Services / Welfare / Health issue as a Planning matter. It is therefore important that this second Planning Application be finally agreed by Wiltshire Council. Yours sincerely, Nigel Thursby NDD THURSBY.

  • Shalbourne Vale, Which Extends to the East of the Vale of Pewsey 13.13
    13. LANDSCAPE TYPE 6: VALES Location and Boundaries 13.1. The Vales are defined topographically, and are distinct areas of lowland, almost always below 130m AOD. The transition to these low lying landscapes is often dramatic, marked by a steep scarp slope. The Vale of Pewsey, including its narrow eastern extension towards Shalbourne, separates the two main chalk upland blocks of the Downs. In addition a number of smaller areas of low lying vale landscape occur along the northern and eastern edge of the North Wessex Downs and relate to the adjacent Countryside Character area 108: Upper Thames Clay Vales. Overview The chalk downs form an imposing backdrop to the flat low lying Vales – an example of the dramatic contrast and juxtaposition of landscape character within the North Wessex Downs. The towering slopes of the adjacent chalk scarps forming a dominant ‘borrowed’ landscape setting that contains and enclosing the Vales. Underlain by Greensand, these lowland landscapes are well-watered, with numerous streams issuing at the junction of the chalk and the less permeable underlying rocks and characterised by watercourses meandering across the flat vale floor. Rich loamy and alluvial soils create a productive agricultural landscape, with a mix of both arable and pasture in fields bound by thick, tall hedgerows. Views are constrained and framed by the topography, rising scarp slopes of the downs and low hedgerows, producing a strong sense of enclosure. Woodland cover is sparse, except where linear belts of willow, alder and scrub accentuate the line of the watercourses that thread across the Vales. The streams, remnant waterside pastures and riparian woodlands form a lush ‘wetland’ landscape of considerable ecological value.

    Woodland Road, Patney Heritage Assessment PROPOSED DWELLING for Damien and Rebecca Thursby WOODLAND ROAD, PATNEY, WILTSHIRE March 2016 Ian Lund Dip Urban & Regional Planning, Dip Architectural Conservation, IHBC Heritage Professional Westbourne Cottage 21 Westbourne Road Trowbridge Wiltshire BA14 0AJ t 01225 765477 e [email protected] Woodland Road, Patney Heritage Assessment 1. Introduction 1.1 I have been commissioned by Damien and Rebecca Thursby to provide a heritage assessment intended to inform and accompany an application for planning permission for a new dwelling at Patney. The proposed development includes the construction of a detached dwelling, driveway and garden area. The development will also include the construction of an access from Woodland Road. 1.2 National planning policy requires the applicant to describe the significance of heritage assets that may be affected, and an appropriate level of specialist expertise is expected to be applied to the decision-making process. The first step for all applicants is to understand the significance of any affected heritage asset and, if relevant, the contribution of its setting to its significance. The level of detail is expected to be proportionate, and no more than is sufficient to understand the potential impact of the proposals on their significance. This assessment follows the general approach advocated in Historic Environment Good Practice Advice in Planning Note 2 published by Historic England following consultation with relevant professional bodies. The report however is not intended to provide a detailed historical record of the village. 1.3 I am a retired chartered town planner with 40 years experience of appraising development proposals in the historic environment.

  • Pewsey Community Area Plan
    Pewsey Community Area Plan 2019-04 PCAP Plan v25.docx Page 1 of 40 Introduction What is the Pewsey Community Area Partnership (PCAP)? PCAP is autonomous and independent; it is inclusive of, and accountable to our wider Community Area. It has a voluntary relationship with the Council and public agencies and helps to form the basis of a strong, resilient and empowered Pewsey Community Area. PCAP aims to create active and sustained participation by all sections of the community that will lead to public funding and services to be more accurately allocated to the wider priority needs. PCAP consults widely on a range of the community issues and holds public engagement events and activities to further involve every member of the community. The Pewsey Community Area covers the following parishes (26 in total, * indicates parishes have combined): Alton, Beechingstoke, Burbage, Buttermere, *Charlton and Wilsford, Chirton & Conock, Easton, Grafton, Great Bedwyn, Ham, Little Bedwyn, Manningford, Marden, Milton Lilbourne, North Newnton, Patney, Pewsey, Rushall, Shalbourne, Stanton St Bernard, Upavon, *Wilcot & Huish (with Oare), Woodborough, Wootton Rivers. What is the Community Plan (CP)? The CP sets out ideas and priorities for each subject area. Each of these ideas, based on priority, form the basis of consultation with the community to identify what actions the community would like to see happen. Those actions may then be delivered by Wiltshire Council, other services, voluntary organisations or Parish Councils, or indeed a combination of these organisations. PCAP’s role is to identify the actions and to assist in realising the projects or changes required. How is PCAP organised? PCAP is made up of a group of volunteers, all living and working within the Pewsey Community Area and who meet every quarter.
