The owner had offered the opportunity of a site visit and the Planning Advisory Group would visit on Friday 4 May. Comments would then be circulated and agreed via email. The following comments were agreed following the site visit: The applicant is credited with taking an environmentally conscious approach to this development, further ‘recycling’ an extant agricultural building as the basis of the main part of the build. The house and garage are reasonable in size and would have no adverse effect on the Green Belt both in terms of visual amenity and impact on the infrastructure (roads, drainage etc).

  • Uplands Cottage, Green Lane, Turleigh, Bradford-On-Avon, BA15 2HH
    Uplands Cottage, Green Lane, Turleigh, Bradford-on-Avon, BA15 2HH. £700,000. Uplands Cottage is beautifully situated on Green Lane in Turleigh between Bradford-on-Avon & Winsley near Bath. The cottage offers flexible living spaces over two floors. The ground floor has a very attractive sitting room with dining area, fireplace & French windows to the terrace at the front of the house. Adjoining this is the smart kitchen creating a very sociable space for friends & family – the heart of the home I would suggest. We also find a good double bedroom & shower room as well as the welcoming entrance hall. Upstairs the accommodation is set around the fabulous drawing room with beamed ceiling, this leads out to the pretty garden & water feature via the conservatory. The generously proportioned master bedroom is triple aspect with a lovely window seat. Adjoining this is a large dressing room or study which might serve as a third bedroom occasionally or a nursery. Lastly there is second bathroom. The house is very smartly presented & enjoys a relaxing atmosphere & fine outlook. Externally is a generous plot. The garden to the immediate rear & side are formal cottage gardens with an orchard & useful timber outbuildings beyond. Surprisingly there is a strip of woodland through a gate beside the stone-built store at the top of the plot! There is driveway parking for two cars. Uplands Cottage seems to tick most boxes for discerning house hunters. One to view. Turleigh is a very popular village in the beautiful valley near Bradford-on-Avon & Winsley to the south east of the Georgian city of Bath.

  • Biodiversity at Parish Level
    Wiltshire Botany 12, 2011, pages 26-35 BIODIVERSITY AT PARISH What is biodiversity? LEVEL Biodiversity is a term for the variety of wildlife which we ought to be maintaining and enhancing. It The example of Winsley refers to the existence of a large number of species, and variations within species, of living things (eg Pyramidal Orchid, the Marbled White butterfly), of John Presland the different communities of which they form a part (eg species-rich limestone grassland), and of the environments which these species and communities require (eg limestone grassland which has not been agriculturally improved by fertilisers, herbicides, etc). It is perhaps a fuller definition of “nature”, but with value judgements implied. The term “biodiversity” appears to have become more prominent than the formerly popular term “nature conservation”. Perhaps this is because “nature conservation” had become too associated in the public mind with maintaining rare species rather than a wide variety of species and a variety of entire communities. Biodiversity encompasses both. Furth- er, nature conservation may have implied that we only keep what we have, whereas biodiversity Cephalanthera damasonium (White Helleborine): thinking includes enhancement of existing commun- Winsley’s only UK Biodiversity Action Plan ities and creation of new ones to increase the number Priority Species and variety of organisms and link them up into networks through which species can more easily move and establish themselves more widely. However, “biodiversity” is not an activity - it needs a word added to say what we need to do. Perhaps we should speak of “biodiversity promotion”, since more than conservation is required.

  • Appeal Decision
    Appeal Decision Site Inspection on 14 November 2013 by Graham Self MA MSc FRTPI Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government Decision date: 13 December 2013 Appeal Reference: APP/Y3940/X/13/2191522 Site at: 101A Bradford Leigh, Bradford-on-Avon BA15 2RW • The appeal is made by Mrs G Marston under Section 195 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by the Planning and Compensation Act 1991 against the failure of Wiltshire Council to decide an application for a certificate of lawfulness within the appropriate period. • The application was dated 5 July 2012. • The application was made under Section 191 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended. • The application sought a certificate of lawfulness for: "Use of building (edged in red on the plan DWG1) as a separate dwelling". Summary of Decision: The appeal succeeds and a certificate of lawfulness is granted. Procedural Matter and Costs 1. Mrs Marston has also appealed against the refusal by Wiltshire Council to grant another application for a certificate of lawfulness. That appeal relates to different development on a different site and is the subject of a separate decision. 2. An application for an award of costs has been made on behalf of the appellant against Wiltshire Council. The costs application is the subject of a separate decision. Reasons 3. This appeal relates to a single-storey building which stands to the east of the house known as 101a Bradford Leigh. I saw during my inspection that although the building is crudely constructed and offers only basic accommodation, it provides all the necessary facilities for day-to-day living.

  • Kellys Directory Extract
    Kellys Directory Extract BRADFORD-ON-AVON BRADFORD-ON-AVON is a parish, market and union town, situated on the Somerset border, on the river Avon and on the Kennet and Avon canal, with a station on the Salisbury, Weymouth and Bath branch of the Great Western railway, 102 miles from London by Road and 100 by railway, 8 south-east from Bath, 3 north-west from Trowbridge, 5 south-west from Melksham, 12 west from Devizes and 12 north from Warminster, in the Western division of the county, hundred and petty sessional division of Bradford, rural deanery of Potterne (Bradford portion), archdeaconry of Wilts and diocese of Salisbury. The town is built within a recess, on the abrupt declivities of the sides of a rocky hill, and the most ancient parts are laid out in a succession of terraces, rising one above another to the very summit of the hill, from one of which, called Tory Rank, the views are very picturesque, and the prospect is extensive and delightfully varied; in the valley below stands the fine old parish church; near to its base, after emerging from between the hills, flows the river Avon, its banks dotted with factories: on the west, and under the side of Grip Hill, is an ancient barn, formerly belonging to the "Grange", or principal farm of the Abbess of Shaftesbury, and possessing one of the finest timbered roofs in the country: on the east is the greater portion of the town, while in the middle distance may be seen the village of Hilperton and the town of Trowbridge, with Westbury Down and the Wiltshire hills in the distance.
