  • Environment Policies
    Environment Policies 7.2. Environment Policies Rationale In summary, Woodford comprises ribbon development along a network of roads and lanes though countryside, which falls within the Shropshire, Cheshire and Staffordshire Plain National Character Area, which is described as a pastoral area of rolling agricultural plain. (29) This structure and setting, are an integral part of Woodford’s character, which is treasured by residents and visitors. Development is largely low density with significant gaps in the housing line along roads and lanes, with the result that there are far reaching views from public lanes, footpaths and private residencies across farmland and to the Pennine hills. The area is low lying and poorly drained, resulting in numerous permanent and seasonal ponds, ditches and streams, which an intrinsic part of the character of the landscape and important wildlife habitats. The countryside is characterised by numerous mature native trees, particularly oaks, and a network of native hedgerows. As well as the aesthetic value, the vegetation in the countryside and gardens in Woodford helps to offset the damaging effects of humans in our environment by absorbing carbon dioxide and pollutants. In addition, the vegetation provides important habitats for wildlife, thereby supporting biodiversity in the largely invisible ecological network that we are part of. The policies in the Environment section aim to protect and enhance these important features of Woodford. In more detail, Woodford is a settlement with a long history, rural nature and landscapes which are treasured by residents. Woodford lies within the Shropshire, Cheshire and Staffordshire Plain National Character, which is described as a pastoral area of rolling agricultural plain.

  • Landscape Character Assessment Appendices
    Appendix 1 Landscape Character Area Profiles 2009 Cheshire East Landscape Character Assessment 161 LCT 1: Sandstone Ridge 1a: Peckforton Character Area Including Peckforton Hill, Bulkely Hill & Rawhead This upland character area forms a very prominent ridge of steep-sided wooded hills which appear to rise abruptly out of the surrounding flat or undulating farmland. The ridge forms a distinctive skyline in views from adjacent areas and the more distant parts of the Lowland Plain to both east and west. The abundant woodland is especially noticeable as it is in marked contrast to the scarcity of woodland cover over much of the surrounding farmland. The dense tree cover can create a very small-scale insular landscape, with views channelled along narrow tracks or woodland drives. Elsewhere, elevated viewpoints provide spectacular views, often framed or glimpsed between mature trees, over the surrounding low lying farmland. These extend in all directions to the very distant horizons of higher ground, such as the Peak District to the east and the Welsh Hills to the west. This character area is separated from the Eddisbury Sandstone Ridge character area to the north by the Beeston Gap. Over looking the gap at the northern end of the ridge is the grade I listed Peckforton Castle. Beeston Castle, on the neighbouring Sandstone Fringe, features prominently in views to the north. The poor soils of the ridge are well endowed with woodland habitats and some of the steeper slopes have been continuously wooded for many hundreds of years and are designated as Ancient Woodland. Other wooded areas are often much younger, having developed naturally from neglected heath or grassland.

    Woodford Aerodrome BAE Systems Operations Ltd Desk Study for Potential Contamination Woodford Aerodrome BAE Systems Operations Ltd DOCUMENT CONTROL FS38745 EMS 54524 Woodford Aerodrome, Cheshire BAE Systems Operations Ltd. BAE Systems Environmental EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction and Objectives BAE Systems Environmental was commissioned by BAE Systems Operations Ltd to conduct a Preliminary Risk Assessment for Land Contamination (PRALC) on the BAE Systems Woodford Aerodrome at Chester Road, Woodford, Cheshire; an airfield and an aircraft assembly facility. The objective of the desk study is to carry out a contaminated land assessment of Woodford Aerodrome as part of the corporate Contaminated Land Strategy. The desk study and site reconnaissance will also enable appropriate information about the Site to be collected to assist any potential intrusive investigations. Site Characteristics The Site, which is centered on National Grid Reference SJ 900 825, occupies an area of approximately 205 hectares with an elevation of approximately 90mAOD. The Site is bound to the north by residential and commercial properties. To the east is a railway line, beyond which are residential properties and Adlington industrial estate. To the south is mostly agricultural land with a small group of residential properties. To the west is a small residential development and agricultural land. BAE Systems Woodford is currently involved with the assembly of aircraft (currently Nimrod) and the painting and paint stripping of aircraft. The Site consists of one main runway and four taxiways. The buildings on the Site are concentrated mainly into two areas: the main assembly areas to the north of the Site, and the main painting and stripping area located at the south of the Site.
