Our response, which begins on the following page, starts with an overall summary of our position on the draft local plan, and then gives more detail with regard to particular sections, policies and proposals (referenced and in plan order). Each element indicates whether our statement is in support, objection or as a comment. We did not find either the online portal or the downloadable pro forma to be conducive to an effective response, and we trust that this will be acceptable. There is much to be commended about the plan, but we also have serious reservations. We are, however, strongly supportive of the council taking steps to continue progressing with consultation on the plan in these difficult times. It is essential to have an up-to-date plan in place at all times for the sustainable management of development in an area with such a potent combination of development pressures, regeneration aspirations and a sensitive environment. The council is to be commended for the steps it has taken to give stakeholders as much of an opportunity to comment on the current proposals as it can under the current circumstances.

A Brief History of Waltham Cross
History of Waltham Cross Eleanor Monument The resting place of Queen Eleanor during her funeral procession was known as Waltham and the location was already known to Edward l as he, like former kings, hunted in Waltham Forest. The abbey was built 350 years earlier, during the reign of King Harold. When Edward died at Burgh on The Sands in Cumbria his body was kept at the Abbey for five weeks before its interment at Westminster Abbey in London. It is believed that the location chosen for the monument was a hamlet a mile away from Waltham. It was a main road at a crossroad point where travellers would be able to view it from several directions. In 1720, Stamford Vicar William Stukeley, made a drawing of the monument at Waltham Cross and presented it to the newly founded Society of Antiquaries. They undertook works to protect it from the increasing traffic. In 1795, Sir George Prescott tried to have it moved to Theobalds Park, but failed after official intervention. The first major restoration took place in 1833 by WB Clark, but these improvements lasted just 50 years and further work was required in the 1880s. Eleanor Cross Road was bombed during World War Two, and although the monument didn’t suffer a direct hit it was damaged by the resulting tremors. Following the war, in 1950 a major restoration took place. The statutes were relocated briefly to Cheshunt library and for a time they were stored in Cedars Park conservatory before being loaned long term to the Victoria and Albert Museum for safe keeping.

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.
