  • Cambo Estate and Its Buildings Conservation Management Plan
    Cambo Estate and its Buildings Conservation Management Plan March 2013 CAMBO: A WINDOW ON THE PAST, A DOOR TO THE FUTURE 1 Executive Summary The Cambo Institute has commissioned this Conservation Management Plan from Page \ Park Architects to provide a framework for the ongoing management and development of Cambo Estate. The document will be expanded in due course as additional areas of conservation and change are considered. At this stage, the focus is on building repair, conservation and adaptive re-use proposals which are the subject of funding applications, including a major application to The Heritage Lottery Fund. The principal focus is on the Stables buildings but also refers to the Walled Garden Glass Houses and the Coach House which are part of the overall project. Following a broad overview of the history and significance of the Estate, the history of the evolution of the Stables buildings are researched in some detail and the qualities of what remains extant are established. Reference is also made to the Glass Houses and Coach House under this ‘Understanding the Heritage’ section. The core of this document is the Statements and Assessments of Significance and these are set out in relation to the various building elements and settings under consideration, the relative significance of these elements being assessed against appropriate broad-ranging criteria. Flowing from this understanding and assessment process, risks and opportunities have been identified and policies established to guide consideration of future change. The need for change to ensure the long term integrity of the buildings and the wider conservation of and access to the Estate is acknowledged and parameters set for such change.

The objection seeks the identification of further land for residential purposes on land to the north of Station Road, Kingsbarns in order that the site KIN01 is extended to accommodate approximately 66 houses (Document 1). 1.2 It is considered that Kingsbarns requires a larger allocation, particularly to support the primary school, post office/shop and public house. It is submitted that the principles of increasing the housing allocation from approximately 40 houses to 66 houses, with the requisite expansion of the site allocation to the north of Station Road is sound for the reasons given in this statement. 1.3 The identification of further residential development at Kingsbarns, including affordable housing for St Andrews University staff and through the Scottish Government’s Rural Homes for Rent Pilot Scheme, for which grants have been awarded, will make an early and positive contribution to the growing housing shortfall within north east Fife.
