  • Inspiring Views – Artist Brief Experience Art on the North Downs Way
    Inspiring Views – Artist Brief Experience Art on the North Downs Way Background Kent Downs AONB and North Downs Way are working with Surrey Hills Arts (a partnership between Surrey Arts, SCC and Surrey Hills AONB) to commission a series of Inspiring Views projects along the North Downs Way. These projects include view restoration, conservation work and site specific artworks that incorporate an opportunity for rest. The artworks will highlight the inspiring views, provide a reason to visit, pause and appreciate each specific location while encouraging interaction from visitors. Aims Through the Inspiring Views project, we aim to: open up a new viewpoint create an iconic focal point for visits to the North Downs Way create an art trail for the North Downs Way attract new visitors to walk the North Downs Way to experience the artwork improve access to the site for all, including visitors with disabilities allow regular visitors to experience the landscape in a new way promote the North Downs Way pilgrimage heritage as a route for reflection, renewal and inspiration engage local residents through associated activities link with local businesses and organisations for tourism and wellbeing experiences linked to the artwork The Brief The selected artwork will include an opportunity for rest, demonstrate high quality, consider the local environment in the materials used, and celebrate the unique identity of the site. Inspiration could come from the local, geological or pilgrim heritage specific to the location, the North Downs Way and local Dorking area. We are open to ideas and suggestions regarding the nature of the work such as a viewing platform, bench that frames a view, more than one structure, a sound bench or the possibility of incorporating different art forms.

It’s the most popular outdoor activity; an important mode of transport and improves health and wellbeing. Yet getting out into the countryside is in decline, even though leisure walking fuelled by the desire to improve physical and mental health has increased. Consumers want to reconnect with the natural environment, but how we do this has changed in the last 10 years. Visits to green spaces have become closer to home for shorter periods and engagement has been more with urban green spaces rather than the countryside.

  • North Downs Biodiversity Opportunity Area Policy Statements
    Biodiversity Opportunity Areas: the basis for realising Surrey’s ecological network Appendix 6: North Downs Biodiversity Opportunity Area Policy Statements ND01: North Downs Scarp; The Hog's Back ND02: North Downs Scarp & Dip; Guildford to the Mole Gap ND03: North Downs Scarp & Dip; Mole Gap to Reigate ND04: North Downs; Epsom Downs to Nonsuch Park ND05: North Downs; Banstead Woods & Downs and Chipstead Downs ND06: North Downs Scarp; Quarry Hangers to the A22 ND07: North Downs Scarp; Woldingham ND08: North Downs; Banstead & Walton Heaths September 2019 Investing in our County’s future Surrey Biodiversity Opportunity Area Policy Statement Biodiversity Opportunity Area ND01: North Downs Scarp; The Hog’s Back Local authorities: Guildford, Waverley Aim & justification: The aim of Biodiversity Opportunity Areas (BOAs) is to establish a strategic framework for conserving and enhancing biodiversity at a landscape scale, making our wildlife more robust to changing climate and socio-economic pressures. BOAs are those areas where targeted maintenance, restoration and creation of Natural Environment & Rural Communities (NERC) Act ‘Habitats of Principal Importance’, ie. Priority habitats will have the greatest benefit towards achieving this aim. Realising BOA aims will contribute to UK commitments to halt biodiversity declines, and their recognition directly meets current National Planning Policy Framework policy to plan strategically for the enhancement of the natural environment; to be achieved by providing net gains for biodiversity and establishing coherent ecological networks that are more resilient to current and future pressures (para. 170). Designation of BOAs also fulfils NPPF requirements to identify, map and safeguard components of wider ecological networks, and areas identified for habitat management, enhancement, restoration or creation (para.

Introductions Apologies noted. CM was suggested that, in addition to Cllr Seaborne, invitations should go to the new intake of Councillors. 2. Minutes from 22/01/19 Agreed. 3. Annual Report 2018/19 This summarises the activities of the Forum over the last year, with a focus on three areas: links to Rushmoor form Farnham/Badshot Lea; links from the proposed development at Dunsfold Park and the Guildford-Godalming Greenway. 4. Proposed improvements to routes from Dunsfold Park to Cranleigh Harry Noyes and CP have prepared a paper summarising the concerns with the original proposed routes from Dunsfold Park. With the likely change in design to place the access road at the east- ern end of the runway, a more direct route to Cranleigh can be achieved following the course of the Wey and Arun Canal north and linking into paths at the new development site at West Cran- leigh Nurseries. This would give a shorter, flatter, traffic-free route.
