Water and any associated contaminants then pass into a traditional piped system adjacent to Lewes Rd, prior to ultimately discharging to a series of soakaways in Wild Park, Lewes Rd, Moulsecoomb, Brighton, BN1 9JR. The site lies in a Source Protection Zone 1 and 2 (SPZ1 and 2) for drinking water. A recent PhD conducted at the University of Brighton has demonstrated presence of a range of potential contaminants in the balancing pond (heavy metals and hydrocarbons) with zinc and benzo (a) pyrene being of particular concern. Figure 1: Location of proposed projects - Woollards Way, Brighton, BN1 9BP (TQ 34107 08324), and Wild Park, Lewes Rd, Moulsecoomb, Brighton, BN1 9JR (TQ 33187 07875) *Chalk Management Partnership Balancing pond at Woollards Way Series of soakaways in Wild Park Figure 2: Location of balancing pond and soakaways and SPZ1 and 2 (shown in red and green respectively) Figure 3: Balancing pond at Woollards Way shows evidence of contamination with hydrocarbons and heavy metals Figure 4: Balancing pond with water Figure 5: Soakaway in Wild Park with contaminated silts and black water Summary of Proposed Project: Proposals are to modify the existing system and create a Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS), or ‘Rainscape’, that prevents pollution of groundwater.

  • Stanmer Conservation Area Appraisal
    Stanmer Conservation Area Appraisal Designated: 1970 Extended: 1988 and 2010 Area: 128 Hectares / 316.29 Acres Character Statement adopted: 2010 Introduction Location and Setting Stanmer Park forms a distinct area to the north east of Brighton, approximately 5km from the city centre. Physically and visually removed from the city, it retains a rural downland context. It comprises an important, and well-used, open recreational space for the city, and provides walking and cycle access from the city to the South Downs. The area around the House and village was designated as a conservation area in 1970. The area was reviewed in 1986 and extended to include parkland to the south in June 1988. Following a number of changes in the area, a further review was undertaken in 2010, at which point this character statement and the current boundary were adopted. The area forms a gently rounded, dry chalk valley, aligned north-west to south-east on the dip slope of the South Downs. For the purposes of this assessment, this will be simplified to a north-south alignment. Stanmer House lies at the head of the valley to the north, from where two smaller valleys extend to the east and west. Stanmer Village lies within the eastern of these valleys. The parkland associated with the House extends to the south, and is bisected by the drive, which provides access along the valley bottom from the Lower Lodges to Stanmer House. The parkland comprises amenity grass, sports pitches, access land and woodland. The area is bounded to the east and west by woodland, which delineates the chalk ridges to either side of the valley.
