  • North Cadbury Neighbourhood Plan Heritage Assessment on Behalf of North Cadbury and Yarlington Parish Council August 2020
    North Cadbury Neighbourhood Plan Heritage Assessment on behalf of North Cadbury and Yarlington Parish Council August 2020 kim sankey │ architect angel architecture │ design │ interiors Angel Architecture Ltd Registered in England at Unit 4, Herringston Barn, Herringston, Dorchester, Dorset DT2 9PU _____________________________________________________________________ North Cadbury Neighbourhood Plan Heritage Assessment August 2020 NORTH CADBURY Key Features The special interest of North Cadbury lies in its origins as a rural estate village (formerly Cadbury Estate) of mixed farmland demarked by ancient enclosed hedgerows with some C17 and C18 modification. On the edges are C19 historic orchards, bounded by mature hedgerows, and several farmsteads. The orchards are a particularly strong landscape feature in terms of social history and culture as they represented an intensively productive use of land, providing cider for the labouring classes while also allowing the grazing of sheep and poultry. There are many listed buildings but most prominent are the Church and Cadbury Court at the historic core around which development is concentrated. The southern edge of the Conservation Area is characterised by the parkland setting of the Court. Under the ownership of Sir Archibald & Lady Langman the estate introduced scientific methods of farming in the 1930’s. The Langman’s prosperity, as a result of this innovation, is evident in the provision of the new village hall opposite Glebe House on Woolston Road. Although most of the other farms have been converted to residential use, Manor Farm remains the manufacturing base for renowned Montgomery Cheddar and Ogleshield cheeses. The River Cam, which rises in Yarlington, runs along the western edge of North Cadbury and through Brookhampton.

  • Scoping Report and Project Plan
    North Cadbury and Yarlington Neighbourhood Plan Initial Scoping Report and Project Plan SCOPING REPORT – INITIAL FILE NOTE Prepared on behalf of North Cadbury and Yarlington Parish Council SEPTEMBER 2019 1. INTRODUCTION This report has been prepared by Jo Witherden BSc(Hons) DipTP DipUD MRTPI of Dorset Planning Consultant Ltd, for North Cadbury and Yarlington Parish Council. The Parish Council is the qualifying body authorised to act in preparing a neighbourhood development plan in relation to the North Cadbury and Yarlington Neighbourhood Plan area. The purpose of this report is to identify at an early stage what issues that relate to development are likely to be most important to the community, and are something that the Neighbourhood Plan can potentially influence. This will then guide the early stages of evidence gathering and consultation, and initial project plan, to ensure that the time and resources spent on preparing the Neighbourhood Plan are focused on achieving the desired outcomes. NEIGHBOURHOOD PLANS A Neighbourhood Plan, when made, becomes part of the development plan for the area, alongside the Local Plan. Together they set out the policies that are used to decide what types of building work or other development will generally be allowed, and what should be refused. They can also say what buildings or places should be protected, and why. Having a Neighbourhood Plan won’t change the area overnight. Its key influence is on decisions made by on planning applications. Landowners (or developers) will still need to make planning applications to the District Council, who will consult on these before making a decision to permit or refuse the proposed development.

    So o TH W G r S - T FISHERY SURVEY OF THE RIVER YEO CATCHMENT 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 This survey of the catchment was undertaken between April 1993 and September 1993. The rivers surveyed were the Yeo, Wriggle, Sutton Bingham Streamsv Cam and Gallica. 1.2 The primary aim was to collect fisheries data on the Yeo catchment as part of a 'rolling1 survey programme for all catchments in the North Wessex Area of the National Rivers Authority. 1.3 It is the first time the catchment has been surveyed in its entirety, the last survey in the catchment being on the upper Yeo betveen Mudford and Sherborne in 1986. 2. TOPOGRAPHY AND GEOLOGY 2.1 The River Yeo, a major tributary of the River Parrett, has its source at Seven Sisters Veil, near Charlton Horethome. From here it falls 100m to its confluence vith the Parrett at Langport. Belov Ilchester much of the Yeo is artificially embanked, vith levels rising to 3m above adjacent fields. The catchment totals 398km2. 2.2 The River Cam rises near Jack Whites Gibbet, and has a catchment of 45 sq Km. The ground levels in the area vary betveen 17m and 183m OND at Yeovilton and Bratton Hill respectively. 2.3 The Wriggle rises at Batcombe Hill and flovs approximately north to the confluence vith the River Yeo at Bradford Abbas.

    5 A sheep’s eye view Land division, livestock and people in later prehistoric Somerset, UK Clare Randall Fields and field systems in later prehistoric British archaeology have generally been discussed in relation to territory or land tenure. They are also frequently assumed to relate purely to arable agriculture. Alongside this, we also tend not to situate livestock animals within landscapes. Increasingly, morphological features of fields can be identified as having use in animal handling. Consequently field system morphology, and changes to layouts over time, enable their re-examination in relation to pastoral and arable husbandry (and the interplay between them), and consideration as to why differing approaches may have been adopted within the same landscape at different times. This provides models which, focussing on pastoral husbandry, are potentially applicable to a range of places and periods. The second and first millennium BC bounded landscapes surrounding the hillfort at Cadbury, Castle, Somerset, UK, reveal an intimate relationship between the occupiers of the hillfort, sites in its environs, livestock, and the landscape. A series of different forms of land division and organisation from the earlier Bronze Age onwards can be compared with both faunal and plant macro-fossil data from within that landscape. Different forms of layout appear to reflect different types of strategy and approach in later prehistoric farming. During the second and first millennium BC changes can be observed between different forms of highly extensive pastoral farming and closely integrated and intensive systems. The explanation would seem to be more social than practical in origin, but discerning this is reliant on large scale field survey, and integration of multiple strands of information.

Chair: John Sugg 863435 [email protected] Newsletter Editor: Lesley Lindsay 862868 [email protected] Secretary: Sarah Owen 862218 Treasurer: Keith Helliar 863700 East Coker Society News MAKE THIS YOUR NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION! Distribution of the newsletter by e-mail At the Society's recent AGM the current extremely low number of residents who opt to receive the Newsletter by this means was discussed and the Committee felt it opportune to ask again for those villagers with computers to advise Lesley Lindsay of their e-mail address in order that the considerable cost of printing hard copies can be substantially reduced. It will also ease the occasional difficulties over manual distribution which arise through illness and holidays etc. We have roughly 800 households in the village yet only 158 have taken up the e-mail option. In asking for villagers co-operation it is stressed that:- a) Individuals' e-mail addresses are secure and will not be disclosed to any other party. b) All villagers who wish to continue to receive hard copies of the Newsletter can continue to enjoy this option. c) Please remember many e-mail recipients do not print the whole document but only the pages that interest them, particularly the all important calendar of events. THE EAST COKER BAG The new East Coker Bag is a 'must-have' item if you live in East Coker!
