We need to plan for this in a way that meets the needs and aspirations of us all, both now and in years to come. 1.1.2 The Government has set up a system of plan-making that will allow us to do this. It is called the Local Development Framework, often referred to as, simply, the LDF. The LDF is not a single plan, but an overall term for a package, or portfolio, of separate documents. These separate documents may be prepared at different times and each one must pass through a number of stages before it can be adopted by the City Council as part of its LDF. 1.1.3 Figure 1 summarises the basic components of an LDF. Figure 1 Local Development Framework (LDF) Structure 1.1.4 You will find a definition of all the terms used in this diagram, and other terms and abbreviations used throughout this document, in Appendix B. 1.1.5 Details of the specific documents that will make up Peterborough City Council’s LDF are set out in our Local Development Scheme (LDS). As the diagram explains, this is a project plan which sets out the programme for the preparation of the various Local Development Documents (LDDs). The LDS is updated from time to time to reflect the progress that has already been made in the preparation of documents; to roll-forward the timetable for preparation of each one; and to introduce new documents which the Council might wish to prepare. 7 Peterborough City Council | Core Strategy DPD: Adopted 2011 1 Introduction 1.1.6 All of the documents in the LDF are statutory, because they are prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, and the Regulations that accompany it. This gives LDDs legal status in any decisions about the way in which development takes place in Peterborough. 1.1.7 As the various documents that make up the City Council’s LDF are adopted, they will progressively establish both the strategy and the detail for the way in which Peterborough will develop over the coming years. They will replace the policies and proposals in the Peterborough Local Plan (First Replacement) and certain other plans that currently make up the ‘development plan’ for Peterborough. You will find more details about this in Appendix A. 1.2 The Core Strategy 1.2.1 One of the most important documents in the City Council’s LDF is this Core Strategy. As its name implies, it is a strategic document, establishing certain principles that are core to the way that the area develops in the longer term. It applies to the whole of the administrative area of Peterborough City Council. 1.2.2 The Core Strategy covers the period to 2026 and contains five main elements: An overall vision (sometimes referred to as a spatial vision) setting out how the area is expected to change over the plan period A set of strategic objectives outlining the main policy directions that need to be pursued in order to realise the vision A spatial strategy and a series of core policies for addressing the vision and objectives; these provide the basic structure for promoting development in some places, restricting it in others, informing and co-ordinating investment, and establishing the framework for detailed policies and proposals to be developed in subsequent documents of the LDF A key diagram, showing diagrammatically how different elements of the Core Strategy will apply to different locations An outline of the means of implementing the Core Strategy policies, together with a set of indicators and targets to provide a basis for monitoring that implementation 1.2.3 We have not included issues relating to minerals and waste in our Core Strategy. This is because planning for minerals and waste is a specialised subject area that can best be addressed over a wider geographical area. For that reason we are producing a separate Minerals and Waste Core Strategy, jointly with Cambridgeshire County Council, and covering both Peterborough and Cambridgeshire. That also includes detailed policies to be used in determining planning applications for minerals extraction and the development of waste management facilities. For the avoidance of doubt, it should be noted that all relevant policies in all adopted Development Plan Documents covering Peterborough will be used in reaching decisions on such applications. 1.2.4 Because the Core Strategy is strategic in nature, it does not set out detailed policies and it does not identify individual parcels of land for development or protection or improvement. It establishes certain principles which will form part of a ‘chain of conformity’. Subsequent development plan documents, prepared as part of the LDF, will provide greater levels of detail and are required by law to conform to the policies in the Core Strategy. 1.2.5 The Core Strategy is, itself, required to be in general conformity with the regional spatial strategy for the East of England. There are more details of this in paragraph 2.3.1 onwards. 8 Peterborough City Council | Core Strategy DPD: Adopted 2011 Introduction 1 1.3 Adoption 1.3.1 There are a number of steps that must be taken in the preparation of any LDD before it can be adopted by the City Council in its final form. The relevant Regulations allow a degree of flexibility but, in summary, for the Core Strategy, these steps are: Evidence gathering Consideration of evidence, issues and alternative options in consultation with stakeholders; leading to the preparation of Preferred Options Public participation

The amount of land being considered far exceeds that envisaged in the Peterborough Core Strategy and would compromise the Spatial Strategy set out within. They could also have serious implications for the provision of local services and infrastructure within South Kesteven.

  • The Praetorium of Edmund Artis: a Summary of Excavations and Surveys of the Palatial Roman Structure at Castor, Cambridgeshire 1828–2010 by STEPHEN G
    Britannia 42 (2011), 23–112 doi:10.1017/S0068113X11000614 The Praetorium of Edmund Artis: A Summary of Excavations and Surveys of the Palatial Roman Structure at Castor, Cambridgeshire 1828–2010 By STEPHEN G. UPEX With contributions by ADRIAN CHALLANDS, JACKIE HALL, RALPH JACKSON, DAVID PEACOCK and FELICITY C. WILD ABSTRACT Antiquarian and modern excavations at Castor, Cambs., have been taking place since the seventeenth century. The site, which lies under the modern village, has been variously described as a Roman villa, a guild centre and a palace, while Edmund Artis working in the 1820s termed it the ‘Praetorium’. The Roman buildings covered an area of 3.77 ha (9.4 acres) and appear to have had two main phases, the latter of which formed a single unified structure some 130 by 90 m. This article attempts to draw together all of the previous work at the site and provide a comprehensive plan, a set of suggested dates, and options on how the remains could be interpreted. INTRODUCTION his article provides a summary of various excavations and surveys of a large group of Roman buildings found beneath Castor village, Cambs. (centred on TL 124 984). The village of Castor T lies 8 km to the west of Peterborough (FIG. 1) and rises on a slope above the first terrace gravel soils of the River Nene to the south. The underlying geology is mixed, with the lower part of the village (8 m AOD) sitting on both terrace gravel and Lower Lincolnshire limestone, while further up the valley side the Upper Estuarine Series and Blisworth Limestone are encountered, with a capping of Blisworth Clay at the top of the slope (23 m AOD).1 The slope of the ground on which the Roman buildings have been arranged has not been emphasised enough or even mentioned in earlier accounts of the site.2 The current evidence suggests that substantial Roman terracing and the construction of revetment or retaining walls was required to consolidate the underlying geology.
