  • Rackheath Booklet
    Settlement Name: Rackheath Settlement Rackheath forms part of an area identified for significant Hierarchy: growth in the JCS referred to as the Old Catton, Sprowston Rackheath, Thorpe St Andrew Growth Triangle where land is allocated through the OSRT Growth Triangle AAP. NB the GNLP will not supersede the AAP document – the allocations at GT16 – GT19 are therefore not part of this plan. Rackheath is classified as an urban fringe parish in the Greater Norwich Local Plan. Currently Rackheath is a predominantly rural parish with a population of approximately 2,000. The OSRT GT as a whole has a commitment of approx. 12,500 dwellings, including approx. 3,200 in Rackheath. Early work in the ‘Towards a Strategy Document’ considers this commitment and therefore specifies 200 dwellings as an indicative figure for new allocations in the north-east sector to be spread across Rackheath, Sprowston and Thorpe. For Rackheath the strategy considers potential smaller sites and uplift in existing allocations but questions how much could be delivered in the plan period or post-2036? Current facilities in the village include a primary school, a local shop and post office, a pub and a village hall although there are also new facilities planned into the large-scale development commitments such as a new healthcare facility, two new schools, etc. (policy GT16). Rackheath Neighbourhood Plan (July 2017) 2017-2037 provides additional policies for future development, however, it does not allocate any sites for development. The vision for the Neighbourhood Plan is that by 2037 Rackheath will be a small attractive rural town with a village feel, developed in a way that is sensitive to its rural location and heritage.

Implementation 55 Appendix 56 3 1. Introduction The Wroxham Neighbourhood Plan is a community-led document for guiding the future development of the parish. It is about the use and development of land over a 20-year period, 2019-2039. It is the first planning document put together by the community of Wroxham. The Plan is made and adopted by Broadland District Council and the Broads Authority and will be used it to determine planning applications. Wroxham Parish Council will use the Plan to respond to planning applications. The Neighbourhood Plan has been developed under the Localism Act (2012) and the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulation (2012 as amended), giving communities the right to shape future development at a local level. The Wroxham Neighbourhood Plan complements existing local and national planning policy, providing a valuable level of local detail attained through consultation with residents and businesses, as well as desk research. The Wroxham Neighbourhood Plan is not a means of stopping development; it is there to ensure development takes place in an appropriate way for the area.

  • The Cators of Beckenham and Woodbastwick
    THE CATORS OF BECKENHAM AND WOODBASTWICK Describes the rise of the family of Quaker John Cator from Ross on Wye to financial success in London and acceptance into the world of the landed gentry (1638-2002) __________________________________________________ About The Author Pat ricia Ridler was born at Blackheat h in 1929, the youngest in a family of three. Educated at the Beckenham County School for Girls and Imperial College, London, she is a scientist, not an historian. She married Michael James Manning, merchant navy engineer, in 1951 and they had three boys and a girl. Teaching fitted in with raising a family and so she t aught Mat hemat ics and Science, especially Biology at her old school. Retirement gave Pat the chance to write and she established Jenna Publishing in memory of her dog Jenna to put her first two books into print. Research into the fascinating Cator family provided an ideal topic for this her third book. __________________________________________________ Also by Pat Manning Churchyard Memorials of St George’s Beckenham Thought s on Beckenham’s Rivers The Cator book is also published by Aut horsOnLine in electronic format, details of which may be obtained at www.authorsonline.co.uk i An AuthorsOnLine Book Published by Aut hors OnLine Lt d 2002 Copyright © Authors OnLine Ltd Text Copyright © Pat Manning The moral right of the author has been asserted All rights reserved.
