  • Lca 13.5 Misbourne Upper Chalk River Valley
    LCA 13.5 MISBOURNE UPPER CHALK RIVER VALLEY LCA in Context LCA XX LCA 13.5 MISBOURNE UPPER CHALK RIVER VALLEY KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Shallow chalk valley, gently sloping and indented by smaller dry valleys to produce smoothly rolling valley sides, with a relatively wide, flat bottomed floodplain. Valley sides steepening in the upper reaches. • On the valley sides the underlying chalk, and free draining lime-rich soils predominately support arable cultivation, with some calcareous grassland and woodland on higher slopes. • Ancient and semi-natural woodland associated with higher slopes and dry valleys, creating a visual boundary of the area, including mixed, broadleaved and coniferous woodland, which possess significant biodiversity and ecological value. • The valley floor is characterised by rough grassland, permanent pasture and paddocks, and divided into smaller scale fields, by low hedges and wooden post and wire fencing. • The narrow and gently flowing Misbourne River, meanders down the valley, with occasional ponds often located near farmsteads or small villages. The river often runs unnoticeably through this lower landscape. • A string of hamlets and farmsteads exist along the valley floor, with nucleated rows of larger settlements focused along roads. The larger village of Great Missenden is situated in the northern part of the area. Distinctive churches are often a feature of villages. • Post medieval parkland at Shardeloes and Missenden Abbey. Shardeloes House is a visually prominent feature on the valley side. • Varying patterns of field enclosure, with a mix of regular and irregular field boundaries. Large scale fields dominate the valley sides, with smaller scale field divisions along the valley floor.

In the 1950s-60s changes in river engineering practices and agricultural intensification caused the water vole population to decline. These changes resulted in habitat loss and degradation which caused fragmentation and isolation of water vole populations. Since the 1980s an introduced predator, the American mink Neovison vison has decimated water vole populations as its range has expanded throughout England, Scotland and Wales. Mink are able to counter the water voles’ anti-predatory behaviours since they swim well, hunt efficiently and female mink are small enough to enter water voles’ burrows. The Berks, Bucks and Oxon Wildlife Trust launched its Water Vole Recovery Project in 1998. The aim of the project was to arrest the decline of water voles within the three counties and to work to stabilise and increase the water vole population.

  • Lca 19.2 Lower Misbourne Settled River Valley
    LCA 19.2 LOWER MISBOURNE SETTLED RIVER VALLEY LCA in Context LCA XX LCA 19.2 MISBOURNE LOWER SETTLED RIVER VALLEY KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Narrow and shallow valley with low valley sides. The valley topography is not prominent and the flat floodplain dominates the character area. • The valley cuts into the Upper Chalk formation and this forms the edges of the character area, with Alluvium comprising the central floodplain zone, gradually widening towards the south. • The River Misbourne is largely hidden and inconspicuous, emerging and becoming more visible within settlement. The river becomes more prominent towards the south, with associated wetland meadows along its course. • A largely settled and developed landscape, with some pockets of rough grazing and pasture and paddocks interspersed, often close to settlement edge. • Limited woodland, with tree cover predominantly associated with transport corridors, acting as screening for roads. Areas of broadleaved woodland located in the south of the area, for example at the Old Rectory Meadows SSSI. • Dense settlement is linearly dispersed along the valley and road corridors. Higher settlement densities and more recent modern origin found in the town edge at Gerrards Cross. • Smaller, yet still relatively densely settled village of Chalfont St Peter and Chalfont St Giles lie in the north of the character area, and these possess a stronger historic character, with distinctive historical architecture of flint and stone churches and timber framed buildings. • Some early field enclosures remain, including pre 18th century co-axial and irregular enclosures. Archeologically elements include, distinctive churches, such as St Giles Church, in Chalfont St Giles and St Peter’s Church, in Chalfont St Peter’s.

  • HS2 Draft Environmental Statement Buckinghamshire Councils
    HS2 draft ES: response of the Buckinghamshire Councils HS2 DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL STATEMENT Buckinghamshire Councils response part 3 CFA 8 – The Chalfonts and Amersham The whole of this area is designated as the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) – a nationally recognised and protected landscape. Whilst the route is in tunnel throughout this CFA, it does not lessen community concerns about potential visual and noise intrusion from the ventilation shafts; significant construction traffic using tranquil and sometimes inappropriate roads; and possible impacts on the aquifer, the water table and chalk streams. The Councils expect HS2 Ltd to work closely with communities to deliver the right mitigation to address real and perceived impacts. Comments on Part B Description of the Proposed Scheme 2.1.11 It is not clear why it is necessary to refer specifically to Amersham hospital since it is one of a number that together serve the local community. Chalfont St Giles only has one library and not the several stated. 2.1.12 As with above, we question the relevance of the settlement information presented in this paragraph. At the very least, the statements made about community facilities should be corrected: for example, Chalfont St Peter actually has several primary schools rather than one primary. There are a large number of facilities in the community which are not referenced including a secondary school of almost 2000 students, six churches, a large leisure centre and three conservation areas. 2.1.13 ‘St Paul Horn Hill’ is stated to be the nearest church; this should be St Paul’s which is in fact near Chalfont St Peter and not in it as the text states.

A smooth and sweeping landform. • Mixed agricultural land use, comprising rough grazing, paddock, pasture and arable farmland.
