From the little things, like knowing the nearest place to pick up a pint of milk, to more important matters like finding the right school or having a health centre nearby, you need to know that the community you’re moving to will support you and your family, as well as being a pleasant place to live. So here’s some useful information about the area around Heathlands. With easy access to the M6, bringing Liverpool and Manchester within an hour’s drive, Heathlands is perfectly placed for travel throughout the north-west. The development is just over a mile from Sandbach railway station from where there are frequent services to Crewe, ten minutes away, and Manchester. Buses between Crewe and Macclesfield or Northwich pass nearby, and the Wheelock Rail Trail, part of National Cycle Route 5, has an access point 600 yards away. Local opportunities for cycling or walking include a network of river and canal- side paths, with pleasant routes into Sandbach and around the wider area. Wheelock’s shops include a convenience store, newsagent and off-licence around half a mile from Heathlands, a selection of takeaways, a delicatessen, and a Farm Shop on the southern edge of the village. There is also a pub with a beer garden, the Cheshire Cheese, just a short walk from Heathlands. 04 The walk into Sandbach opens up a very wide choice of shopping, much of it in the compact, traditional town centre where specialist shops, butchers and bakers are interspersed with attractive pubs, cafés, gift shops and restaurants. There are Waitrose, Co-op, Iceland and Aldi supermarkets, and the main car park has recycling bins for glass, metal cans, paper, plastics and textiles. The town centre is particularly lively on Thursdays, when the open-air market extends from the Market Place into the High Street and the beautiful Cobbles beside Sandbach’s famous Saxon crosses. There is also a monthly Farmers’ Market. 06 The artist’s impressions (computer- generated graphics) have been A short walk from Sandbach’s cobbled squares and historic prepared for illustrative purposes and are indicative only.

INTRODUCTION 1.1. This Statement is written on behalf of Hollins Strategic Land LLP in support of an application for outline planning permission (all matters reserved other than access) for the erection of up to 70No. dwellings at land off Crewe Road, Alsager. Town planning considerations that are relevant to determining the application are reviewed and the statement identifies important considerations which support the proposals. 1.2. The Council has a shortage of deliverable housing land. The proposals would make a valuable contribution towards reducing the deficit in a sustainable manner. The proposals comply with the policies of NPPF as a whole and will result in economic, social and environmental benefits which are not significantly and demonstrably outweighed by any adverse impacts. 1.3. These benefits include, and are not limited to, significantly enhancing existing features of ecological interest and promoting biodiversity gain by pond and habitat creation with substantial landscaping; the creation of public open space (POS) that will provide opportunities for leisurely walks, responding directly to a recognised need in Alsager; and, providing development in a highly sustainable and accessible location, as recognised by the Inspector who examined the Congleton Local Plan.

  • Appendix 4 Detailed Proposals for Each Ward – Organised by Local Area Partnership (LAP)
    Appendix 4 Detailed proposals for each Ward – organised by Local Area Partnership (LAP) Proposed Wards within the Knutsford Local Area Partnership Knutsford Local Area Partnership (LAP) is situated towards the north-west of Cheshire East, and borders Wilmslow to the north-east, Macclesfield to the south-east and Congleton to the south. The M6 and M56 motorways pass through this LAP. Hourly train services link Knutsford, Plumley and Mobberley to Chester and Manchester, while in the east of this LAP hourly trains link Chelford with Crewe and Manchester. The town of Knutsford was the model for Elizabeth Gaskell's novel Cranford and scenes from the George C. Scott film Patton were filmed in the centre of Knutsford, in front of the old Town Hall. Barclays Bank employs thousands of people in IT and staff support functions at Radbroke Hall, just outside the town of Knutsford. Knutsford is home to numerous sporting teams such as Knutsford Hockey Club, Knutsford Cricket Club, Knutsford Rugby Club and Knutsford Football Club. Attractions include Tatton Park, home of the RHS Flower show, the stately homes Arley Hall, Tabley House and Peover Hall, and the Cuckooland Museum of cuckoo clocks. In detail, the proposals are: Knutsford is a historic, self-contained urban community with established extents and comprises the former County Ward of Knutsford, containing 7 polling districts. The Parish of Knutsford also mirrors the boundary of this proposal. Knutsford Town is surrounded by Green Belt which covers 58% of this proposed division. The proposed ward has excellent communications by road, motorway and rail and is bounded to the north by Tatton Park and to the east by Birkin Brook.

FOREWORD Dear Friends I was glad when they said to me "Let us go to the house of the Lord". So wrote the psalmist as he approached the Temple of Jerusalem almost 3000 years ago. The words express the joy and anticipation he felt as he drew near to that great building that witnessed in his day to the existence and reality of God. A Church on the site of St. Mary's has witnessed silently to the same reality of God for over 1000 years. The tower pointing majestically upwards challenges us to believe that life means more than the ordinary and often sad events of everyday.

SANDBACH ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT Vince Devine & Jo Clark 1. SUMMARY Although the manor was recorded in the Domesday Survey of 1086, very little is known about Sandbach during the early medieval period. However, the survival of elaborate pre-Viking sculpture, in the form of crosses and grave slabs, indicates that Sandbach was an important religious centre during this period. By the late 16th century the town was granted the rights to hold a market and two fairs, all of which have continued into the present century. During the 19th century, a silk and shoe industry were established, and their commercial success was a significant factor in the growth of the town.

  • Canal and Salt Town Middlewich, Cheshire Heritage Research
    Canal and Salt Town Middlewich, Cheshire Heritage Research Report Middlewich Town Counci April 2009 SLR Ref: 406.1788.00002 406.1788.00002 Middlewich: Canal and Salt Town MIDDLEWICH CANAL AND SALT TOWN Introduction This report is one of the products of an exciting project started by Middlewich Town Council under their Middlewich Vision programme. The idea was to celebrate the salt and canal tradition of this historic town, and a successful bid to the Heritage Lottery Fund in 2007 allowed the Canal and Salt Town project to begin. The project included a canal boat festival and design of a trail along the canal, with interpretation boards to explain the history of the area. Research into the salt industry and canals, as well as gypsies and canal families at Middlewich resulted in information which was used for interpretation boards, an exhibition and a trail leaflet. It has also led to this report and archive that is available for educational purposes and for study by anyone who wishes to explore further, as well as a popular booklet which is a summary of the two aspects that has made Middlewich the place it is today. The sources used in this report are fully referenced at the end of each chapter. The report is presented in seven sections separated by blue dividers: 1 Salt 2 Canals 3 Gypsies 4 Geology 5 Flint Mill 6 Historic maps 7 Figures including photographs, reconstruction drawings and diagrams The report describes how the main focus for past communities at Middlewich was dominated by salt production. Salt was always important as a means to preserve food, and, as well as having a large number of other economic benefits, the uses that salt was put to by the people of Middlewich developed over the centuries into a highly sophisticated chemical industry.

Ho- norary Member of" the Geological Society *¢.
