  • An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
    An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.

  • Cleobury Mortimer
    Key Centre – Cleobury Mortimer Location 1 Summary of Settlement Study Area and Location Introduction Cleobury Mortimer, in south east Shropshire has been identified as a Key Centre within the Shropshire Pre-Submission Draft Local Plan (2020). This Green Infrastructure Strategy has defined the study area as a 1km buffer around this settlement. Cleobury Mortimer, is a rural market town located on the western side of the River Rea, just over 4km east of the Clee Hills and 3km west of the Wyre Forest. It is around 17km to the east of Ludlow and a similar distance to the west of Kidderminster. The town has a population of just over 3,000. And around 1,306 dwellings. Development context Existing development allocations in the town are set out in the SAMDev (2015)1, however the Shropshire Local Plan is currently being reviewed. The Pre-Submission Draft Local Plan (2020) proposes other sites, which are not yet adopted. The Shropshire Pre-Submission Draft Local Plan (2020) outlines that Cleobury Mortimer Town Council are developing a Neighbourhood Plan and so it is intended that Shropshire Council will work closely with the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group to provide an overall housing guideline for the town, with the Neighbourhood Plan determining how growth should be managed and potentially identifying a development boundary for the town and any specific allocations. The Plan Review identifies that the town has a remaining residential requirement of approximately 120 dwellings and 1ha of employment land to be delivered over the Plan period up to 2038. The locations of potential allocations to deliver these requirements are to be determined by the Neighbourhood Plan.

Recommended Reason for refusal 1. Core Strategy policies seek to support the re-use of existing rural buildings, prioritising uses which support the aims of rural rebalance, and small scale new economic development. The National Planning Policy Guidance states that development should only be prevented or refused on transport grounds where the residual cumulative impacts of development are severe. Whilst the proposed junction alterations, erection of a mirror and passing places are of material benefit, they would not overcome the restricted forward visibility for drivers of vehicles approaching the junction along the B4363 from a north- easterly direction and driver of a vehicle slowing or waiting to turn right into Baveney Lane and at the western junction of Baveney Lane (Nash cross roads junction) the severely restricted visibility in a northerly direction and forward visibility for drivers of vehicles approaching the junction from both a southerly and northerly direction and a driver of a vehicle slowing or waiting to turn right into Baveney Lane, due to the horizontal alignment of the highway carriageways and the adjacent field boundary hedgerows.
