S/03/704 Proposal: Full Planning Permission for Erection of 8 No Gail Dent From: Judith Eastham REDACTED BY YDNPA Sent: 25 June 2020 21:26 To: Planning Subject: S/03/704 Dear Ms Clowes and Mr R Graham Planning Application Reference: S/03/704 Proposal: Full planning permission for erection of 8 No. dwellings, associated accesses, parking and landscaping. Address: Land opposite Derry Cottages, Millthrop, Sedbergh We are writing regarding the above planning application and wish to bring to your attention recent issues with the drains that have affected Derry Cottages, Millthrop. As you will be aware Derry Cottages is situated opposite the land for the proposed development of 8 dwellings. In our previous correspondence of 20 May 2020, we raised a question over sewage disposal as the proposed plans are non-committal as to which method will be used; our concern being that the existing sewage disposal system in the hamlet will be unable to cope with a further 8 properties. Our property, No. 1 The Derry had significant problems with the sewerage on 16 June 2020, as well as the properties at No.3 on 3 and 4 June 2020 and No.4 on 15 June 2020. The property at No.2 is presently unoccupied. It is these issues that we wish to bring to your attention as it further highlights the concerns that we raised on 20 May 2020. We have been unable to identify the cause of these blockages, but we have identified what appears to be a collapsed drain at the entrance to Blandses farm, which, we believe may be causing the problem as we did retrieve stones and debris from the blockage. Indeed, Mrs Stacey of Rivermead, stated in her response to the planning application on 4 April 2020, that it was evident that the existing sewerage system is inadequate. She stated that her garage had on occasions been very badly flooded with raw sewage, as had her garden, apparently owing to drains blocked at Blandes Farm itself. We would ask that United Utilities, undertook a full survey of the drains prior to commencement of any proposed building works, with the costs bourne by the developer, to ascertain the suitability of the current foul drainage and possible impact on the rest of the hamlet. Yours Sincerely Joe Dawson and Judith Eastham 1 Gill Allinson From: Yvonne Cervetti REDACTED BY YDNPA Sent: 21 May 2020 11:15 To: Planning Subject: Comment on application: S/03/704 Dear Ms Clowes With reference to the application number S/03/704 for planning development on the land opposite Derry Cottages, Millthrop, we are writing to register our objection on the following grounds: 1) Existing road - the whole length of Frostrow lane is already unsuitable for current traffic which includes heavy farm vehicles, heavy delivery wagons (many of which have to reverse to go down the section of road adjacent to the land proposed for development) as well as domestic transport. The existing single track road is narrow with badly damaged surface, no designated passing places and high pedestrian traffic. Visibility along the road is limited due to blind bends and there are already issues with congestion at the ‘T’ junction in the middle of the hamlet. During recent closure of Millthrop bridge the road through the hamlet was heavily burdened with traffic, many of whom ignored the 20 mile an hour sign and chose to use it as a ‘race track’ causing several accidents. A further 16 cars would massively increase the burden on this road. 2) This road is popular amongst locals as a recreational means to enjoy the local flora and fauna from Spring through to Autumn whether walking, cycling or pushing prams and for all abilities for which local footpaths may not suitable. Our concern is for the the long term ecological damage and imbalance that the proposed development will bring. 3) In recent years climatic changes have resulted in increased flooding not only along Frostrow lane, which becomes impassable, but also in the proposed field for development. Building and tarmacking on this plot would surely result in the water coming down from the fell and further flooding not only the road but the houses which lie lower than the proposed development. During the floods over the last few years the drive up to Blandses farm became a fast flowing river resulting in large quantities of debris being washed down the road, causing potential danger to vehicles. This debris still remains on Frostrow lane and is still a potential hazard. 4) The proposed house designs do not follow the integrity of a Yorkshire Dales hamlet. The designs show opulent dwellings which are not in keeping with current properties in Millthrop. People walking through Millthrop along the Dalesway comment on and appreciate the bucolic nature of the hamlet. A large, estate-like development will damage the current, positive impact. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing our objections to be noted. Your sincerely, Mykola Hrynyk & Yvonne Cervetti Stonerigg Millthrop Sedbergh LA10 5SJ 1 Gill Allinson From: Judith Eastham REDACTED BY YDNPA Sent: 20 May 2020 22:05 To: Planning Subject: S/03/704 Proposed housing development opposite Derry Cottages Millthrop Sedbergh Cumbria LA10 5SN From: Judith Eastham REDACTED BY YDNPA Dear Ms Clowes, Upon studying the plans for the proposed development we wish to make the following observations and comments. 1. The road infrastructure from the turn off into Millthrop on the Sedbergh/Dent Road to the development site is very narrow, 2.8 metres at the brow of the hill and the same width at 1 to 4 Derry Cottages. The maximum width is 4.4 metres at Hillside House. This makes the road mainly single tracked, with no road markings and limited /no lighting. Additional dwellings will only add to the increased degradation of the road surface, increase the risk of accidents and add to the problem of road congestion. Currently HGV’s to Mr.P.Hoggarths Builders Yard, within the perimeter of Blandses Farm and to Blandses Farm itself from Sedbergh/Dent road as they turn left at Stonerigg to come down the lane either reverse down or reverse out as there is nowhere to turn on the lane. This applies to refuse collection and other delivery firms ,not just to the farm but also properties approaching it. Access for emergency vehicles is also compromised, this will be exacerbated with, and within a new development. Three vehicular entrances to the proposed site from a single track lane is not ideal an alternative would be to go down Blandses farm lane and into the rear of the site giving prospective occupants more privacy, safety and reducing the collision hazard in the lane for the length of the site. The recessed areas outside 1 and 2 Derry Cottages, 1 Hillside, Hillside House and just past Stonerigg are privately owned land and not passing places as could be interpreted from the plans. 2.Within the hamlet of Millthrop,there is already a significant issue over a shortage of car parking spaces with many vehicles parked on the roadside and in lay-bys/gateways.The proposal of 2 parking spaces, per property is potentially insufficient and will lead to additional vehicles parked on the roadside/ in lay-bys which will effectively prevent tourists and visitors to the area using these spaces- thus affecting the local economy. Currently in rural villages and hamlets 59% of houses own 2 or more cars or vans.(source Statista 2020). To illustrate this problem last night (19.05.2020 )I walked through the hamlet and there were a total of 9 vehicles parked on the highway which is already narrow. There were a further two vehicles parked down on the lay-by on the Dent/Sedbergh road. This is in a period of time when we are living in lockdown and second homes and holiday lets are unoccupied, none of the vehicles belonging to them. 3.The make up of the current dwellings in the hamlet of Millthrop is approximately; * 8 private lets (providing a home). * 4 Holiday Lets * 9 Second Homes * 1 Semi-Derelict cottage. 1 * The rest are owner occupied. Since March 2018 there have been seven property sales within Millthrop of which * 2 purchasers have a local connection. * 2 purchasers moved in from out of the area. * 2 purchased as second homes. * 1 purchased to be added to a holiday let portfolio by persons from out of the area. Based on the above is there really a need for 8 new houses in Millthrop? 4.Based on 8 additional properties, our crude figures suggest an increase of 17% of dwellings within the hamlet which is too much in our view, especially with the current vacant properties. It is a known fact that a high percentage of vacant properties will attract crime and vandalism to the area. 5.Within the hamlet there are no local amenities-playground, shop , pub, nursery ,school or place of worship. This means there is a heavy reliance on cars or public transport. It is possible to catch a bus on the Dent /Sedbergh road on a Wednesday or Saturday to the nearest large town of Kendal. The nearest of the above amenities are found in Sedbergh, however all the banks and building societies have closed ,there is no provision for post 16 state education, the over 16s travel further afield if they continue in education the nearest place being Kendal. Despite the significant lack of public transport in term time buses leave Sedbergh around 8am and return around 5pm to take these pupils to school or college. 6.There is no public footpath from the development to Sedbergh.

    Mill End Millthrop 1 Sedbergh 1 LA10 5SJ Mill End Dating back to the 19th century, Mill End sits along a private driveway within a small community of similar properties at Millthrop, a short distance by car or level walk on foot from Sedbergh. This cleverly converted former mill building offers versatile accommodation across two floors which would suit either the permanent or secondary residence purchaser and provides good views of Winder Fell, part of Wainwright’s beloved Howgill range. Included in the sale are private fishing rights to the River Rawthey, direct access being available from the secluded, riverside garden here at Mill End. Just 5 miles from junction 37 of the M6 and 10 miles from Auld Grey town of Kendal, Sedbergh is well placed in terms of road access to both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales national park. Public transport options are numerous with Oxenholme Main line only 10 miles away. Private and independent schooling for primary and secondary stages are easily accessible and a host of modern day amenities and open air, weekly market are available in Sedbergh, England’s official ‘book town’. Millthrop is on the famous Dales Way, an 80 mile walk from Ilkley to Bowness on Windermere, popular with tourists throughout the year. The accommodation at Mill End is currently set out over two floors with kitchen and bathroom facilities to each level. However, the layout does offer several options for re-working the existing design of the three bedrooms, two spacious bathrooms and two kitchens to suit the purchaser’s individual requirements and to make best use of the available space.

  • The Dales Way Guided Trail
    The Dales Way Guided Trail Tour Style: Guided Trails Destinations: Yorkshire Dales & England Trip code: MDLDD Trip Walking Grade: 4 HOLIDAY OVERVIEW The Dales Way was one of the earliest "unofficial" long distance routes. For most of its 79 miles it shuns the craggy tops and summit ridges to keep to the valley bottoms. It is, in essence, a riverside route linking existing rights of way to cross the Yorkshire Dales in a south-east to north-west direction. It connects the urban fringe of Ilkley to the shores of Windermere by way of Wharfedale, Dentdale and Eastern Lakeland. Wildlife is rich and varied: rivers provide habitat for a wide range of birds and the Wharfe is noted for its trout, often seen leaping out of the water on summer days. WHAT'S INCLUDED • High quality en-suite accommodation in our country house • Full board from dinner upon arrival to breakfast on departure day • The services of an HF Holidays' walks leader • All transport on walking days www.hfholidays.co.uk PAGE 1 [email protected] Tel: +44(0) 20 3974 8865 HOLIDAYS HIGHLIGHTS • The complete Dales Way from Ilkley to Bowness • Meander through beautiful Yorkshire Dales scenery • Stay at Newfield Hall, Malhamdale TRIP SUITABILITY This Guided Walking/Hiking Trail is graded 4 which involves walks /hikes over long distances in remote countryside and rough terrain.

  • Yorkshire Weekender
    The Dales Way Association. PO Box 1065, Bradford, BD1 9JY. [email protected] www.dalesway.org.uk Newsletter Number 40 Autumn 2011 Editorial It has always been one of the aims of the Dales Way Association to eliminate road-walking as far as possible from the route of the Dales Way. One short section of minor, but busy road has exercised our minds for many years, the stretch from Sprint Bridge to Hall Lane, which leads into Burneside. The obvious solution would be a footpath over the wall on the south side of the road and parallel to it. In 2006 an attempt was made to create such a footpath, but nothing came of it. In 2010 Cumbria County Council started another initiative, but again, fifteen months later, no progress had been made. In August of this year the Association requested the help of Chris Holland, South Lakeland District Councillor. He responded within 48 hours and progress since then has been rapid. The land is owned by the Cropper Estate (Croppers also own the paper mill in Burneside). Chris has already had a meeting with Mr Cropper, who is sympathetic to our request, but he has not yet spoken to the tenant farmer at Burneside Hall, whose agreement would also be necessary. Chris and committee member Donald Holland have walked the proposed path in order to assess the cost of the gates and stiles required. The Dales Way Association has agreed to contribute to these costs and we thank Chris for his help and enthusiasm in moving to solve a 40 year old problem.

  • A Study of the Social and Economic Impacts and Benefits of Traditional
    A study of the social and economic impacts and benefits of traditional farm building and drystone wall repairs in the Yorkshire Dales National Park Valuing the Historic Environment 3 Report Prepared for: ENGLISH HERITAGE 1 Waterhouse Square 138 – 142 Holborn London EC1N 2ST January 2007 A Socio-economic study of grant-funded traditional drystone wall and farm building restoration in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. FINAL REPORT Prepared by: Countryside and Community Research Unit (CCRU) University of Gloucestershire Dunholme Villa Park Campus Cheltenham GL50 2RH And ADAS Hollyshaw House Hollyshaw Lane Whitkirk Leeds LS15 7BD Authors: Paul Courtney, Peter Gaskell, Jane Mills and Robert Edwards EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report evaluates the social and economic impacts of grant-funded traditional farm building and drystone wall restoration in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The research was funded by English Heritage, Defra and the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority (YDNPA), and carried out by the University of Gloucestershire’s Countryside and Community Research Unit and ADAS. The research examines six schemes, under which landowners and farmers were eligible to apply for grant funding over the period 1998 - 2004. The schemes considered in the research include Defra’s Pennine Dales Environmentally Sensitive Areas Scheme, the Countryside Stewardship scheme and the Rural Enterprise Scheme, as well as the National Park Authority’s Barns and Walls Conservation and Farm Conservation Schemes, and the Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust Scheme, which is administered by a separate charitable trust. Core data relating to the grant schemes awarded during the study period was collated from the agreement holder files held by Defra, the National Park Authority and the Millennium Trust.
