South East Bedfordshire
Archaeological Investigations Project 2007 Post-determination & Research Version 4.1 South East Bedfordshire Bedford (E.09.3101) SP94305245 AIP database ID: {571EF0F6-021A-41D1-9133-52A0EAFE31D4} Parish: Turvey Postal Code: MK43 8DB ALL SAINTS' CHURCH, TURVEY Archaeological Observation & Recording Ingham, D Bedford : Albion Archaeology , 2007, 4pp, colour pls, figs Work undertaken by: Albion Archaeology A watching brief was undertaken on groundwork associated with improvements. No features or deposits of archaeological significance were discovered, probably due to the fact that the service trenches were not deep enough to encounter archaeological remains. [Au(abr)] Archaeological periods represented: UD OASIS ID :albionar1-35955 Mid Bedfordshire (E.09.3102) SP92173930 AIP database ID: {3B436FB9-431E-4FCF-BFF1-CDB7FE4267DC} Parish: Hulcote and Salford Postal Code: MK17 8BU M1 BROUGHTON BROOK OUTFALL M1 Broughton Brook Outfall, Bedfordshire Turner, I Bedford : Albion Archaeology, 2007, Work undertaken by: Albion Archaeology A programme of archaeological observation, investigation and recording was undertaken by Albion Archaeology on engineering works at the M1 Broughton Brook outfall, Bedfordshire. The site lies within an area of archaeological potential, in the vicinity of cropmarks possibly dating to the later prehistoric or Roman periods. Other significant archaeological remains are also located in the surrounding landscape. The engineering works comprised the excavation of a foundation trench for a penstock, and the re-profiling of a length of drainage ditch. No archaeological features, deposits or artefact were revealed during the engineering works. Deep excavations were only carried out for the penstock foundation trench where only geological deposits were encountered. Any potential remains present in the vicinity of the drainage ditch were unlikely to be revealed due to the limited nature of the works in that area. -

ARCHAEOLOGY A N D T H E C H A N N E L T U N N E L PAUL BENNETT with contributions from Rupert Austin, Greg Campbell, Richard Cross, Alex Gibson, Elizabeth Healey, Martin Leyland, Steve Ouditt, Richard Preece, Jonathan Rady and Steve Staines INTRODUCTION Three separate construction areas have received attention from the Canterbury Archaeological Trust: Ashford, where the inland freight clearance depot has been built; Dover, where a construction camp, offices, working areas and a shaft leading down to the tunnel have been constructed; and Folkestone, where the main U.K. terminal facilities, the tunnel portals and a length of 'cut-and-cover' tunnel are presently under construction. Negotiations with Eurotunnel for archaeological work connected with this, the largest ever privately-funded civil engineering venture in Europe, began at an early stage in the life of the project. A document containing all known information regarding sites of archaeological interest was prepared by English Heritage (November 1986)1 and these designated areas were assessed in the field during July and August 1987. -

COUNTRYSIDE Page 1 of 16
Page 1 of 16 COUNTRYSIDE Introduction 12.1 Shepway has a rich and diverse landscape ranging from the rolling chalk downland and dry valleys of the North Downs, through the scarp and dip slope of the Old Romney Shoreline, to Romney Marsh and the unique shingle feature of the Dungeness peninsula. This diversity is reflected in the range of Natural Areas and Countryside Character Areas, identified by English Nature and the Countryside Agency respectively, which cover the District. The particular landscape and wildlife value of large parts of the District is also recognised through protective countryside designations, including Sites of Special Scientific Interest and Heritage Coastline, as well as the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The countryside also plays host to a wide range of activities and it is recognised that the health of the rural economy and the health of the countryside are inter-linked. A function of the Local Plan is to achieve a sustainable pattern of development in the countryside. This involves a balance between the needs of rural land users and maintaining and enhancing countryside character and quality. 12.2 This balance is achieved in two main ways:- a. By focussing most development in urban areas, particularly on previously developed sites and ensuring that sufficient land is allocated to meet identified development requirements, thus reducing uncertainty and speculation on ‘greenfield’ sites in the countryside. b. By making firm policy statements relating to: the general principles to be applied to all proposals in the countryside; specific types of development in the countryside; and the protection of particularly important areas. -
Botolph's Bridge, Hythe Redoubt, Hythe Ranges West And
Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR13 G (Botolph’s Bridge, Hythe Redoubt, Hythe Ranges West, and Nickolls Quarry) The tetrad TR13 G contains a number of major local hotspots, with Nickolls Quarry, the Botolph’s Bridge area and part of Hythe Ranges located within its boundaries. As a consequence the tetrad has the richest diversity of breeding birds in the local area, with 71 species having a status of at least possible in the latest BTO Atlas survey. It also had the highest total of species (125) in the winter Atlas survey. Sadly a major housing development is now in progress at the Nickolls Quarry site and much of the best habitat is now being disturbed or lost. Nickolls Quarry has been watched since the late 1940s, though early coverage was patchy, particularly in the 1960s and 1970s. As a working quarry the site has undergone significant changes during this time, expanding from two small pits to a much larger area of open water, some of which has since been backfilled. During 2001 to 2004 a series of shallow pools were created which proved particularly attractive to waders. Nickolls Quarry in 1952 Nickolls Quarry in 1998 Looking roughly northwards across the 'old pit' Looking south-west across the site towards the Hythe Roughs towards Dungeness Although a major housing development is underway on the site it still contains some interesting habitats. The lake is easily the largest area of open water in the local area and so remains one of the best areas for wildfowl, particularly during cold weather, for example in December 2010 when there were peak counts of 170 Wigeon, 107 Coot, 104 Pochard, 100 Teal, 53 Tufted Duck, 34 Gadwall, 18 Mute Swan, 12 Pintail, 10 Bewick’s Swan, 8 Shoveler, singles of Goldeneye and Goosander, and 300 White-fronted Geese flew over. -
District Water Cycle Study 1
Consultation Draft 1 Prepared by James Hammond, Strategic Policy Officer Reviewed by Adrian Tofts, Planning Policy Manager Agreed by Folkestone and Hythe Water Cycle Report This report has been produced by the District Council, and the approach taken has been to build upon and update the 2011 Water Cycle Study. The report has been shared with key stakeholders for comment/feedback, notably the Environment Agency, Affinity Water, South East Water and Southern Water. Information specifically relating to flood risk has been sourced from the 2015 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment prepared by Herrington Consulting to update the 2009 study. The Water Cycle Report is produced to inform the District’s Local Plan documents and is not considered material to any planning application. 2 CONTENTS SECTION A INTRODUCTION Chapter 1 AIMS & SCOPE OF THE REPORT Chapter 2 AN OVERVIEW OF WATER SYSTEMS & LOCAL FEATURES Chapter 3 SPATIAL PLANNING CONTEXT SECTION B EVALUATION Chapter 4 WATER FRAMEWORK DIRECTIVE Chapter 5 WATER RESOURCES & WASTE WATER TREAMENT Chapter 6 FLOODING & COASTAL ISSUES SECTION C FINDINGS Chapter 7 CONCLUSIONS List of Diagrams Figure ref Page Figure title number Figure 1.1 10 The Water Cycle approach Figure 1.2 15 Folkestone and Hythe District and its context within Kent Figure 1.3 16 The principal rivers and existing defence infrastructure within Folkestone and Hythe District Figure 1.4 18 Flooding sources Figure 2.1 22 The Hydrological Cycle Figure 2.2 25 A linear summary of the Royal Military Canal Figure 4.1 37 Water Framework Directive -
