The Statement of Community Involvement sets out how the Authority will engage local communities and other consultees in the preparation of documents within the Local Development Framework, other Authority policy documents affecting the National Park and in making development management decisions within Northumberland National Park. Early Engagement Between 26th October and 7th of December 2009 the Authority consulted on initial issues for the review of the Statement of Community Involvement. A leaflet (see appendix 1) was prepared seeking views on how the Authority should continue to engage stakeholders. The leaflet was sent to all residents of the National Park, statutory consultees (appendix 2) and other consultees (appendix 3). A summary of the representations received is set out in appendix 4. These comments informed the preparation of the draft Statement of Community Involvement. Engagement on the Draft Statement of Community Involvement A draft Statement of Community Involvement was published for comment between 10th May and 21st June 2010 (see appendix 2 and 3 for groups contacted). A number of methods were used to inform residents, organisations, groups and individuals of the draft Statement of Community Involvement: • The 22 parish councils within and adjoining the National Park (appendix 2) were sent a hard copy of the document and a LDF Newsletter. Parish Councils were asked if a member of the Policy and Planning Team could attend their Parish Council meeting. Officers subsequently attended 9 meetings; • 63 other statutory consultees were sent a hard copy of the draft document (appendix 2); • A LDF Newsletter (appendix 5) was sent to all 904 residential households and 69 other organisations, groups and individuals (appendix 3) informing them of the location of the document which was made available at the Northumberland National Park Authority headquarters, on the Authority’s website and at the following libraries; Bellingham, Haltwhistle, Haydon Bridge, Hexham, Kielder and Wooler; and • A statutory notice was also placed in a regional newspaper (appendix 6). A summary of the representations received are included at appendix 7. These comments were considered, and where appropriate reflected in the revised Statement of Community Involvement. 3 4 Appendix 1 Copy of early engagement leaflet 6 Appendix 2 Statutory consultees - who received a copy of the leaflet in October 2009 and the draft Statement of Community Involvement in May 2010.

  • Northumberland Coast Designation History
    DESIGNATION HISTORY SERIES NORTHUMBERLAND COAST AONB Ray Woolmore BA(Hons), MRTPI, FRGS December 2004 NORTHUMBERLAND COAST AONB Origin 1. The Government first considered the setting up of National Parks and other similar areas in England and Wales when, in 1929, the Prime Minister, Ramsay Macdonald, established a National Park Committee, chaired by the Rt. Hon. Christopher Addison MP, MD. The “Addison” Committee reported to Government in 1931, and surprisingly, the Report1 showed that no consideration had been given to the fine coastline of Northumberland, neither by witnesses to the Committee, nor by the Committee itself. The Cheviot, and the moorland section of the Roman Wall, had been put forward as National Parks by eminent witnesses, but not the unspoilt Northumberland coastline. 2. The omission of the Northumberland coastline from the 1931 Addison Report was redressed in 1945, when John Dower, an architect/planner, commissioned by the Wartime Government “to study the problems relating to the establishment of National Parks in England and Wales”, included in his report2, the Northumberland Coast (part) in his Division C List: “Other Amenity Areas NOT suggested as National Parks”. Dower had put forward these areas as areas which although unlikely to be found suitable as National Parks, did deserve and require special concern from planning authorities “in order to safeguard their landscape beauty, farming use and wildlife, and to increase appropriately their facilities for open-air recreation”. A small-scale map in the Report, (Map II page 12), suggests that Dower’s Northumberland Coast Amenity Area stretched southwards from Berwick as a narrow coastal strip, including Holy Island, to Alnmouth.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.

  • Rural Regeneration and Localism: a Case Study of Northumberland A
    Rural Regeneration and Localism: A case study of Northumberland A Thesis presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Newcastle Elizabeth L. Juppenlatz School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape April, 2015 Abstract The Localism Act (2011) was intended to bring about radical decentralisation, encompassing reforms to the planning system to make it clearer, more democratic and effective. Neighbourhood planning was introduced to address the democratic deficit experienced by communities under previous governments. Neighbourhood plans, the main plank of the new legislation and intended as a robust addition to the plan hierarchy, were envisaged as empowering and enabling communities to control the type of development in their area. This research focusses on the delivery of neighbourhood plans from the perspectives of policy actors, planners and communities. With Northumberland forming the main case study, three sub-case studies have been used; two neighbourhood plan Front Runners are compared with the successful rural regeneration initiatives of a Development Trust. These are used to examine the extent to which the neighbourhood planning process is bringing about the changes vaunted by the government. The research was conducted using semi-structured, in-depth interviews and content analysis together with participatory and visual appraisal tools in the case study areas in the north and west of Northumberland. Drawing on collaborative planning theory and theories of neo-endogenous rural development, the research indicates that, through the collaborative processes of delivering neighbourhood plans, a regeneration of local governance institutions may be emerging. This thesis argues, however, that the processes of localism, expressed through neighbourhood planning, cut across entrenched patterns of land-use, land ownership and power relations in Northumberland.
