A small team of M&S Ramblers and a couple of contractors with super mini diggers managed to resurface over 300m of path. Well done to David Yates, for doggedly getting this project done. Thanks to the rest of the team as well for all their hard work. We think you will guess which photos were before and which after! See the comment below for the impact already. ‘We walked from Walkden to Littleton Road on Wednesday for the sole purpose of walking the regenerated path near to Pilkington tile works. An excellent job well done and the first time in about sixty years that I have been able to traverse it without doing a hop skip & jump, slip and slide. Well done and thank you. Roy Bullock.’ OTHER FOOTPATH WORK. Productive day working on 4 paths around Wythenshawe. Barry, Kate, Margaret. WALK LEADERS COURSES A series of courses for current and potential walk leaders are being run by the Ramblers in different arears around the country. There are two arranged for our Area on January 24th and 25th and more will come on stream later. If you are interested you need to log onto the Ramblers Website as a member and go to https://www.ramblers.org.uk/volunteer-zone/support-and-development/walk-leadership/england-wales CARERS WALKS We have had two more walks both well attended. Thanks to all our volunteers. September at Heaton Park. Despite constant rain both walks were enjoyed by all and a good lunch after in The Woodthorpe. We were joined for the first time by 16 Carers from Bury, all keen to come again. In October we had walks based on Alexandra Park, Whalley Range and no rain! The short walk was led by Liz Jones who did a tour of the park and gave walkers lots of information. The longer walk went down to the Fallowfield Loop, Hough End Fields and Clough, with some lovely trees in the remnants of the ancient field there. Some of the carers knew the area from playing cricket or other sports on the fields, but none of us had been in the clough before. A Hidden Gem which is part of Manchester Green Trail Walk 8. Then back for an excellent lunch at The Park café run by Coffee Cranks. The walks are much appreciated by the Carers, those they support, and our volunteers really enjoy them. A video was made on our Heaton Park Walk for the Stepping Out Website Stepping Out Website and one Carer did a Blog of his experiences At the end of the year the Website will also feature a roundup of the year including an article featuring comments from some of our volunteers. Look out for it. We will be starting again in March 2020. If you want to help contact Margaret Manning. WALKING ELSEWHERE- ITALY In September six of us went on a delightful walking holiday in Italy with InnTravel. We have been with them a few times before and always been impressed with the organisation, although they are probably not the cheapest. This time we were walking round two of the northern lakes in Italy, Lake Orta and Lake Maggiore. Although InnTravel don’t provide a guide they do furnish you with very detailed instructions for the walks each day and arrange both accommodation and luggage transfer. We stayed in three different hotels, each on the lakeside and walked from there each day. Some of the walks were circular ending up back at the hotel and others were linear and involved transport back by either bus or boat. Lake Orta is the most westerly of the pre-Alpine lakes and the two sides of the lake are very different. The western shores are wild and rugged with the second highest mountain in Europe, Monta Rosa not far away. The eastern shores and foothills are gentler, backed by Monte Mottarone which divides Lake Orta from its larger neighbour Lake Maggiore. Lake Maggiore is Italy’s second largest lake and is distinctly Mediterranean with luxuriant gardens, elegant resorts and brightly painted villas. The lake’s northerly section expands into Switzerland and offers striking mountain scenery. The Italian part of the lake provides the boundary between the two regions of Italy, Piedmont and Lombardy. The lake also contains 11 islands, the most famous being the Borromean islands in the gulf between Stresa and Verbania. The walking was very pleasant and not too strenuous although most days involved an ascent from the lakeside to mountain villages overlooking the lakes. One of the walks took us over the border into Italy and involved a lengthy boat trip back to the hotel we were staying in. The walking was largely through wooded areas providing some welcome shade, and provided lots of potential stops in small mountain villages for refreshments. The food and wine was excellent influenced by both mountain and lake flavours and fresh water fish was widely available. Regional dishes included stewed meats, torta di pane (bread cake) and cheeses from the alpine pastures of Mottarone. Piedmont is home to some of the best vineyards in Italy and provided the full bodies reds of Barolo, Dolcetto d’Alba and Barbera d’Alba. All in all a very enjoyable holiday and I would recommend both lakes but particularly Maggiore as a base from which to do some walking. Barry Windle RECENT WALKS & SOCIALS Castleton to Edale and Art trail. Long walk along the Great Ridge then down from Hollins Cross to do the Art Trail from Edale. Good walk Salle and the sun shone all day. Good to have several MWW members with us. Short walk along the Kinder Art Trail and then back by the Pennine Way. The weather was very good and we enjoyed each of the art installations. The protest song Juke Box was a favourite for some. A Monday short walk led by Peter around former industrial lands in the Lower Irwell valley in Salford. Organ museum social. M&S Ramblers' socials take us to many interesting places, but you'd never expect to find this. In a pleasant, unassuming residential street in Eccles, just off the A57, the Lancastrian Theatre Organ Trust occupies a 1907 building next to the Methodist church. The museum has a vast collection of organ pipes, stops and other paraphernalia, while the hall itself houses two magnificent theatre organs - a Wurlitzer and a Compton. The performance was from none other than Nigel Ogden, long time presenter of the Radio 2 programme "The Organist Entertains" which was broadcast for 49 years until being withdrawn in May last year . Worsley to Astley Green mining museum. Amazing sunny day for our walk along the Bridgewater canal, from Worsley to Astley Green Mining Museum, and back again. Thanks Geoff for leading. Special thanks to the volunteers at Astley Green Mining Museum for showing us round, brewing up for us and making us very welcome. Pay it a visit if you haven't already been. https://www.facebook.com/TheRedRoseSteamSocietyLtd1/ Special post just for photos for Billy, the goat who has adopted Astley Green mining museum, mainly as a good source of food. He came from a local farm and didn't want to go back. Though having been made welcome by the volunteers at the museum he is going to an animal rescue centre at Wigan. Probably better for his waistline! Shropshire weekend. M&S Ramblers escaped the worst of the weekend weather in Shropshire, with walks up Adstone Hill, the Stiperstones and the Long Mynd. Accommodation at the YHA and The Bridges pub, which served Three Tuns beer from Bishop's Castle and was fab in every way. Two good walks each day with help from David and Veronica who have a house nearby, and gave us tea and cakes after Saturday’s walks. Friday’s longer walk on Adstone Hill. Others will also have some. The sun came out soon after we started. Short walk on Saturday. A steep climb up Corndon Hill followed by a pint in the local pub. Good day. Saturday's long walk along the Stiperstones ridge, spot the climbers, good route and leading Kate Wilson. Then onto Veronica and David's cottage next to Mitchell Fold Stone Circle.

  • Local Plan Call for Sites Consultation Form (July 2018)
    Regulation 18 Local Plan Call for Sites Consultation Form (July 2018) The Local Plan will make site specific allocations for housing, employment and green spaces, similar to those in the Revised Trafford UDP. As part of the Issues Paper consultation we welcome the submission of any sites you wish to be considered for development, protection or for some other purpose within Trafford. Each submission will be assessed in terms of its ‘fit’ with the Local Plan and against sustainability criteria, which may ultimately lead to the site being allocated. Sites submitted for development will be assessed to establish their capacity, suitability, availability and achievability, taking into account planning policy, the environment and local constraints and the extent to which they can be mitigated or addressed. Sites submitted to be considered for protection or another purpose will be assessed on their suitability for the proposed use. The Call for Sites will not determine whether a site should be allocated for a particular use, it is a technical exercise aimed at identifying the potential of sites for different allocations. Guidelines Use a separate Call for Sites form for each site Submit an Ordnance Survey map clearly showing the boundaries of the site. If there is more than one landowner, please ensure the land ownership boundaries are clearly defined on the map, and please provide confirmation that each landowner is in agreement of the consideration of the land for possible development. If the site is to be considered in conjunction with other sites, to form a larger development area, please ensure details are clearly provided within the form.

  • Cadishead Viaduct and the Cheshire Lines Rail Line
    Proposal to re-open Cadishead Viaduct and the Cheshire Lines rail line The art of the possible! This document has been produced by Hamilton Davies Trust (HDT) to provide background and scope for the Cadishead Viaduct potential re-opening debate. HDT has been heavily involved in the regeneration of Irlam and Cadishead since 2008, working with key local, regional and national stakeholders to make Irlam and Cadishead an even better place to live, work and enjoy. As part of our regeneration agenda, the poor state and appearance of Cadishead Viaduct has been a topic of conversation for some time. Two years ago we started to investigate the possibility of improving its appearance and putting the bridge back into use. This document summarises the history of the bridge and the compelling opportunities re-opening the viaduct would bring. HDT has now adopted the project and is championing the reopening of the viaduct for multi modal use including a new section of the national cycleway, footpath and heritage railway amongst other options. Cadishead Viaduct Built in 1893, Cadishead Viaduct is a magnificent structure which dominates the landscape across the Manchester Ship Canal. Originally constructed to run the Cheshire Lines railway over the newly built canal, the viaduct helped to service the busy factories in the area, transporting raw materials and finished goods, as well as some passenger services. Due to the decline in industry, the rail line closed to passengers in 1965 and eventually to freight in 1984 when coal exports ceased. With the line no longer in use and the high cost of maintenance, the bridge was eventually closed and industrial containers positioned at either side to prevent access to the structure.

The assessments have been based on the site allocations and boundaries as proposed in the Draft Local Plan (November 2016) and used to inform the development of the Revised Draft Local Plan and specifically, the site requirements included within the site allocation policies. Background The Draft Local Plan was published for consultation for a 10 week period commencing 8 November 2016 to 16 January 2017. In response to the Draft Local Plan consultation, representations were received from Historic England as a statutory consultee in relation, in part, to the supporting evidence base to the local plan. Historic England did not consider that the city council had adequately demonstrated that the policies and proposals contained within the Draft Local Plan had been informed by a proper assessment of the significance of the heritage assets in the area.

  • Community No
    FINAL PROPOSALS Community No. M11 - CHURCHSTOKE Introduction 1. The community of Churchstoke lies in the south-eastern corner of Montgomeryshire, in a prominent salient in the county and national boundary. That part of the community which formed the historic township of Weston Madoc, is detached from the main extent of the community, and most of the houses in that area would lie nearer to the key settlement of Montgomery. Much of the vale landscape of this community is defined by the confluence of the many streams that come together to form the Camlad river. Even so, to the south the landscape rises steeply to the Kerry Ridgeway, and to the north to one of the high points in this area, Corndon Hill. Settlement is scattered through the vale, and focuses on the key settlement of Churchstoke. However, the landscape, and distinctive mining and quarrying traditions from the past, set much of the area around Corndon Hill - including Hyssington and White Grit - apart. This dichotomy has been reflected in the warding arrangement of this community. 2. The key settlement in this community is Churchstoke which has a good range of important community services and facilities and the capacity to accommodate additional development. Hyssington, the next settlement in size in the community, is, owing to severe constraints on development, defined as a rural settlement in the Unitary Development Plan. White Grit, a dispersed village that comprises three main clusters of properties, has been defined as a small village in the Plan. The community also has a number of other rural settlements: Bacheldre, Cwm, Mellington, Old Churchstoke, Pentre (Churchstoke) and Pentrenant.

The patterns represented are Irregular fieldscape (40 areas), Regular fieldscape (12 areas), Other fieldscape (6 areas), Woodland (7 areas), Marginal land (11 areas), Water & wetland (1 area), Nucleated settlement (14 areas), Non-nucleated settlement (1 area), Extractive industry (1 area), Processing/manufacturing (3 area), Designed landscape (1 area) and Recreational (1 area). Historic Landscape aspect areas were identified using a number of digital and paper data sources, verified by rapid field visiting and drawn as a digital map against a 1:10,000 OS map background attached to a database of supporting information. These digital elements and this Technical Report contain the results of the Montgomeryshire LANDMAP study and were submitted to Powys County Council and the Countryside Council for Wales on completion of the project. Montgomeryshire’s historic landscape has evolved over the course of many millennia and shows considerable variety within one of Wales’ largest historical counties.

    PHASE THREE OF FORTIS QUAY - SALFORD QUAYS 2 Frontal View - Grapnel Apartments SALFORD QUAYS PHASE THREE OF FORTIS QUAY - SALFORD QUAYS The images provided in this document are intended as a guide and could be subject to change 3 Fortis Quay is a premier residential destination in the heart of Salford Quays comprising four unique developments which, when combined, create the perfect village environment - a go-to destination to live, work and play. 4 SALFORD QUAYS The Fortis Quay concept was formed to recognise the history of the now iconic Salford Quays waterfront, with a nod to the area’s illustrious past as one of the UK’s most popular ports despite its inland position. The canals that still exist to this day give Salford Quays a unique identity, and make them a picturesque and peaceful place to live. The four distinct phases of Fortis Quay will each take the name of a type of anchor in honour of the waterways which give Salford Quays their personality, and will each focus on a key area of Salford and why the area has become a key tenant destination. Phase 1: Herreshoff Apartments Phase 2: Danforth Apartments Phase 3: Grapnel Apartments Phase 4: Northill Apartments Although these four phases exist as separate and distinct entities in their own right, together they make up Fortis Quay, a collection of desirable residential apartment buildings ofering future tenants the best in quayside living. 5 Why Grapnel Apartments Salford Quays is one of the UK’s best rental markets High-end apartments close to Manchester city centre Short walk to MediaCityUK 27th collaboration between Knight Knox and Fortis Developments 321 metres to Salford Quays tram stop All apartments fully let and managed by experienced letting agency 6 SALFORD QUAYS Grapnel Apartments is the third phase of the stunning Fortis Quay development located in the heart of Salford Quays, one of the most desirable rental locations in the UK.
