We talk to two artists who combine their creative talent with a love of the town. Self-taught urban artist Lucas Roy has seen his hobby fourish into an online business. The 31-year-old dad of two said: “I am Darlington born and bred and proud of my town. I’ve always had an artistic eye and have used art as an escape from the stress of my work. I’ve experimented with many mediums and received lots of requests from friends. Lucas, who narrowly missed out on appearing on “I am infuenced by an urban/street art the BBC’s Big Painting Challenge, shows his work on style which can send a message and add Facebook (@lucasroyartwork) and Instagram.

Thank you for referring the above local plan document for the Environment Agency to review. We have taken to the time to review the Proposed Submission Local Plan Document and the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) alongside other relevant supporting evidence documents, namely: Darlington Level 1 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (2019) We are making comments to the plan in accordance with paragraph 35 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) to assess whether they have been prepared in accordance with legal and procedural requirements. Having reviewed the submission plan, we consider it to be sound. However, we have recommended the following changes below: Darlington Local Plan (Submission Document) We remain supportive of the vision for Darlington which included the overarching aim to protect and enhance the quality of Darlington’s built, natural and historic environment, and to use it positively to create great places. We are supportive of specific objective 5 and however would still provide a suggested rewording of clause d) to ‘Enhance the natural environment Mitigate flood risks through the provision of Sustainable Drainage Systems, Natural Flood Management and environmental and ecological improvement of the River Skerne and River Tees.’ This objective should be more aligned to water quality and the requirements of the Water Framework Directive. We are supportive of specific objective 6 and note the Council have included our previous comments for clause c).

  • Final Report Landscape Scale Project Pipeline Workshop a Collaborative
    Final report Landscape scale project pipeline workshop A collaborative effort by the Three North East Local Nature Partnerships and HLF 1 | P a g e 1.0 Introduction The North East Local Nature Partnership in collaboration with Northern Upland Chain & Tees Valley Local Nature Partnerships and the Heritage Lottery Found (HLF) hosted a landscape scale pipeline planning workshop on October 11th 2016. Heritage experts from across the North East attended to guide a holistic approach to landscape scale project opportunities and development across the region. There have been many successful landscape projects in the North East and there continues to be an appetite for more however development and delivery of these projects also require significant resources from project partners. Historically, local authorities have been important in providing this resource, either as staff to develop the bid or by funding other organisations to do so however the austerity measures local authorities have had to implement means less support is now available. Despite these circumstances the need for enhancements to our landscape and natural heritage has become even greater. Landscape proposals have generally been developed in isolation, as ideas have occurred and opportunities and funding to support development became available. At times there has been unintentional competition between North East projects for HLF Landscape Partnership (LP) funds and while competition can have a positive effect on project quality, it is also sensible for project development teams to have an awareness of LP project plans in other localities. In the North East there is no shortage of project ideas and motivated delivery groups and to maintain this enthusiasm and ensure it isn’t dampened by certain factors beyond our immediate control, a more coordinated approach to project development/ delivery across the whole of the North East is needed.

It also assesses the significance of the line and any remaining structures associated with it. It then goes on to assess the potential for future enhanced access, conservation and interpretation of the branch line in advance of the Stockton & Darlington Railway’s 200th anniversary in 2025. The Stockton & Darlington Railway’s Croft branch line was opened on the 27th October 1829. It was 3 ½ miles long and ran from north of Hill House east of Skerne Bridge in Darlington to the north side of Hurworth Place where it terminated at the S&DR’s newly built Croft Depot. It was built as a single-track railway designed to haul coals to the depot largely for a domestic market. It also hauled limestone for agricultural use and building materials as required, and passengers made use of the line too.

  • Historical Journey Along the River Tees and Its Tributaries
    Historical Journey along the River Tees and its Tributaries Synopsis The document describes a virtual journey along the River Tees beginning at its source; the perspective is as much historical as descriptive of the current scene. Where significant tributaries join the river, they also are tracked back to their start-points. Particular attention is paid to bridges and watermills because of their intimate associations with the rivers, but nearby buildings, both religious and secular are also given attention. Some people have been specially important to developments associated with the river, and brief biographical notes are provided for them. Finally, I would stress that this is very much a personal account dealing with facets of interest to me during the 30 years or so that I spent living and working near the River Tees. Document Navigation I do not provide either a contents list, or an index, but to aid navigation through the document I give here page numbers, on which some places appear first in the text.
