Local Brewery Invests in Its Heritage Swale Ale The FREE magazine of the Swale branch of CAMRA The Campaign for Real Ale Local brewery invests in its heritage s many Swale Ale readers will be aware the A largest brewery in our area, and in Kent, is Shepherd Neame. As well as its major brewing arm, Shepherd Neame also own and operate a total estate of 354 pubs, comprising 44 managed pubs and 310 tenanted and leased pubs. With many of its competitors failing to invest in their tied estate and with vast numbers of pub closures nationally, it is interesting that we are currently seeing Shepherd Neame invest heavily in the refurbishment of many of its pubs. Swale Ale has reported on the great work completed at The Fountain, Sittingbourne and The Bear in Faversham to name a few. Pubs The Three Horseshoes, have been given traditional new hand painted Staple Street signage by Eric Pollard, and often sympathetic restoration of their interiors, which is a far cry the brewery announced the sale and/or closure from the ‘Irish’ style pub chains of the 1990s. of 35 pubs over a two year period, and in our This investment in its tied and managed pub own area we have already had to say goodbye chain is always welcome, particularly at a time of to the Mechanics Arms in September 2012 and national belt tightening, and shows a The Windmill on January 2nd 2011. commitment to local communities.

  • Swale Borough Council Settlement Hierarchy Study
    Swale Borough Council Settlement Hierarchy Study Draft Report August 2020 1 1. Background and national policy context 1.1 The Council is currently undertaking a Local Plan Review (LPR) and, as per paragraphs 15 and 20 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), will need to provide a positive vision for the future of Swale and set out a strategy for the pattern, scale and quality of development. This must be done with the objective of contributing to the achievement of sustainable development. 1.2 With regards to urban areas, planning policies should seek to ensure the vitality of main centres. For rural areas, they should identify opportunities for villages to grow and thrive, especially where this would support local services. Where there are smaller groups of smaller settlements, development in one village may support services in a village nearby. 1.3 Significant development should be focused in locations which are, or can be made, sustainable through limiting the need to travel and offering a genuine choice of transport modes. 2. Local policy context and purpose of study 2.1 Several pieces of evidence have already been prepared, or are being prepared, in consideration of the above. However, there is a need to assess the sustainability of the settlements within the Borough to understand how our towns, villages and smaller settlements function at the moment. This will contribute to the wider decision to be made regarding the LPR’s settlement strategy. 2.2 Bearing Fruits 2031, The Swale Borough Local Plan (the adopted Local Plan) identifies 34 towns and villages within the Borough which are defined by built-up area boundaries and within which, the principle of development is broadly accepted.

    L ynsted Published September 2002 Parish Design Statement Incorporating Design Guidelines as Supplementary Planning Guidance for Lynsted & Kingsdown. Adopted by Swale Borough Council 30th April 2002. During the last 18 months our group of volunteers has learnt a great deal about what we value in our surroundings. These are often features of the landscape and buildings that we take for granted but which give the parish of Lynsted and Kingsdown its unique character. We have taken great care to lis- ten to as many people as possible and to bring these views into the Statement. I would like to thank everyone who spoke to us, wrote to us, completed questionnaires and attended our public events. I hope you enjoy looking through the document. The Design Statement is intended as guidance to residents and those parties involved in shaping our environment. It is through this document that we, as a community, are having an influence on our environment, identifying the characteristics that we believe are important and wish to preserve. Ours is a living community and, therefore, a changing community. We can face up to that change with the confidence that everything we value will be protected and enhanced.

  • EQUALITY IMPACT SCREENING and ASSESSMENT Name of M2 Junction 5 Proposed Or Current Proposed Practice/Policy Improvements
    EQUALITY IMPACT SCREENING AND ASSESSMENT Name of M2 Junction 5 Proposed or Current Proposed Practice/Policy Improvements Person Completing the Assessment Originated: Rebecca McClenaghan Reviewed: Bryn Jones Directorate Major Projects Date December 2018; Reference No MPS41 Updated February 2019; Updated March 2020; Updated May 2020 A: The aims, purpose, desired benefits and expected outcomes of the practice/policy, identifying the customers, staff or stakeholders involved or affected. Scheme Background The M2 Junction 5/A249 Stockbury Roundabout is located within Kent and is an important corridor linking Dover with London. The M2 Junction 5/A249 Stockbury Roundabout improvement scheme forms part of the Highways England £15 billion investment on major roads and motorways and Highways England’s Delivery Plan 2015-2025. The scheme is in Highways England’s PCF Stage 5 - Construction Preparation (Detailed Design). The M2 Junction 5/A249 Stockbury Roundabout scheme was identified for improvements as it is unable to cope with existing traffic flows. There has been notable congestion and delay on the A249 southbound and northbound and on the exit slip road from the M2 westbound. Road users have been using alternative rural routes to avoid congestion, increasing local safety risks. The Public Local Inquiry is scheduled to commence on 28th August 2020 and continue until 14th September 2020.The Secretary of State (SOS) decision is anticipated by 19th February 2021, followed by the final stage gate assessment review (SGAR5) on 25th February 2021. The scheme will aim to reduce congestion in the area, improving journeys for those travelling north east to Sittingbourne, the Isle of Sheppey and the Port of Sheerness.
