Chair: Councillor Laurie Deputy Chair: Councillor Mrs Seabury TO: All other Members of the Council for information Management Team AGENDA ITEM 2 DEVELOPMENT CONTROL COMMITTEE 1st FEBRUARY 2007 Report of the Strategic Director for Environment and Regeneration PART 1 – APPLICATION FOR DECISION 3/2006/0897 - ERECT GREENHOUSE AT 1 NEWFIELD FARM, STANHOPE, BISHOP AUCKLAND FOR MR. M. AND MRS. H. GAYER - 29.11.2006 description of site and proposals 1. Detailed planning permission is sought for the erection of a greenhouse (measuring 5m long by 2.5m wide by 2.5m to ridge height) for domestic purposes on land outside of the domestic curtilage but attached to 1, Newfield Farm, East Lane, Stanhope. 2. 1 Newfield Farm is one of two recently constructed properties at the head of West Lane, Stanhope. It has a 12metre deep rear garden with a detached garage in the north east corner. The property also includes a 100m by 13m parcel of open land which the applicants have registered as a smallholding. This attached area of land is not in agricultural use nor is it within the domestic curtilage of the property, as defined in the grant of planning permission for the dwellinghouse. This land is outside of the settlement limits for Stanhope, as defined on inset 21 of the WVDLP. Its last use may have been as an access track to the adjacent Newfield Quarry, which now contains grass covered spoil heaps. planning history 3. None recent or relevant. planning policies 4. The following policies of the Wear Valley District Local Plan (WVDLP) are relevant in the consideration of this application: • GD1 General Development Criteria. • H3 Distribution of Development. 1 consultations 5. Stanhope Parish Council: No response. officer analysis 6. The key issues for consideration are: • Principle of Development • Visual Impact principle of development 7. Modest though the proposal appears, the greenhouse would be located outside of the established limits of Stanhope. The application is specifically for “a greenhouse on waste land” and the applicants are not seeking to change the use of the larger area of land on which the greenhouse would be sited. The domestic garden area attached to the host dwelling is considered adequate by current standards and the proposed siting of the greenhouse is just beyond the present garden and detached house. 8. The positioning of a domestic greenhouse some 2 metres beyond the existing garden boundary (and the settlement limits of Stanhope) would not in itself prejudice the limits to development. The proposal is not in conflict with policy H3 of the Wear Valley District Local Plan. 9. If, at a future time, the currently waste land was intended to be incorporated into the residential curtilage of the main dwelling then this would raise more fundamental points of principle. visual impact 10. The proposed greenhouse would be small (5m long x 2.5m wide x 2.5m to ridge height). It would have an aluminum frame. It would be located behind an existing garage and would not be visible from the public highway. It would not have an adverse visual impact and the proposal accords with policy GD1 of the Wear Valley District Local Plan. objections/observations 11. Occupiers of the surrounding properties have been notified in writing. A site notice has been posted and a notice has been placed in the local press. No representations have been received. 2 conclusion and reason for approval 1. The proposal is modest in scale and impact. On its own it does not prejudice the limits to development established for Stanhope, established in the Wear Valley District Local Plan. The proposal whilst not conforming to policy H3 of the WVDLP does not conflict with it in a material way. 2. The proposed greenhouse would not have an adverse visual impact and the proposal accords with policy GD1 of the Wear Valley District Local Plan. RECOMMENDED That planning permission be GRANTED subject to the following condition and reason. condition 1. This permission is for the erection of the proposed greenhouse only. 2. The use of the greenhouse, hereby approved, shall be solely in association with the use of the main dwellinghouse. reason 1. To determine the scope of this permission. In accordance with policy H3 of the Wear Valley District Local Plan which seeks to define the limits of development of Stanhope. 2. The application is for a domestic greenhouse. In accordance with policy GD1 of the Wear Valley District Local Plan. background information Application files, WVDLP.

The County stretches from the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) in the west to the North Sea Heritage Coast in the east and borders Gateshead and Sunderland, Northumberland, Cumbria and Hartlepool, Stockton, Darlington and North Yorkshire. Although commonly regarded as a predominantly rural area, the County varies in character from remote and sparsely populated areas in the west, to the former coalfield communities in the centre and east, where 90% of the population lives east of the A68 road in around half of the County by area. The Settlement Study 2017 seeks to provide an understanding of the number and range of services available within each of the 230 settlements within County Durham. (a) Identifying the number and range of services and facilities available within a settlement is useful context to inform decision making both for planning applications and policy formulation. The range and number of services within a settlement is usually, but not always, proportionate to the size of its population. The services within a settlement will generally determine a settlement's role and sphere of influence. This baseline position provides one aspect for considering sustainability and should be used alongside other relevant, local circumstances.

In Britain, as in their other provinces, the Romans constructed a comprehensive network of paved trunk roads (i.e. surfaced highways) during their nearly four centuries of occupation (43 - 410 AD). This article focuses on the ca. 2,000 mi (3,200 km) of Roman roads in Britain shown on the Ordnance Survey's Map of Roman Britain.[1] This contains the most accurate and up-to-date layout of certain and probable routes that is readily available to the general public. The pre-Roman Britons used mostly unpaved trackways for their communications, including very ancient ones running along elevated ridges of hills, such as the South Downs Way, now a public long-distance footpath.

Covering 70 square miles of the beautiful and historic Derwent Valley and its surroundings, this is one of the north east’s most rewarding areas to explore. But the Derwent Valley hasn’t always been the tranquil place you’ll find today. It was a cradle of the Industrial Revolution, with a booming iron and steel industry that lasted from the 1690s right up until the 1980s. You’ll find the legacy of metalworking throughout the Land of Oak & Iron. Industry left its mark on the landscape, with forges and furnaces. It also shaped local communities, influencing traditions such as rapper dancing and the writings of ommyT Armstrong, the pitman poet. Nowadays the old industries have fallen silent. Nature is reclaiming the valley, creating a rich patchwork of woodlands, riverbanks and grasslands. These habitats support a wide range of species such as otters, kingfishers and red kites, which are making a comeback.
