    HS2 Ltd ‘2018 Working Draft Environmental Statement’ Consultation Response of Leicestershire County Council December 2018 Structure of this response This Response to the HS2 Ltd Working Draft Environmental Statement (WDES) by is split into four parts. These are as follows: PART 1: Document Introduction and Main areas of Concern PART 2: Response to WDES Vol 2 – Community Areas LA03, LA04 and LA05 PART 3: Response to WDES Vol 2 – Route-wide Effects PART 4: Response to WDES Vol 3 – Off-route Effects PART 5: Appendices For any enquires about this response, please contact: [email protected] 1 | Page PART 1: Document Introduction and Maim areas of Concern i) This document and its appendices comprise Leicestershire County Council’s (the Council’s) response to the Working Draft Environmental Statement (WDES) for HS2 Phase 2b (the proposed scheme). We issue this response in the spirit of contributing to the processes surrounding this vast infrastructure project, but must include the caveat that the Council can only respond to the material to hand and further intensive work with HS2 Ltd is required to fully understand the impacts for Leicestershire and the most appropriate mitigation. ii) The Council recognises that the WDES is a draft document. However, it is disappointing that even in draft; there is a distinct lack of information provided in sections of the WDES, especially regarding the proposed scheme’s constructional and operational impacts and in respect of its design. But, the Council have determined to use this as an opportunity to shape the design and mitigation across the County. Where clear mitigation is not yet defined, the Council will seek to secure assurances from HS2 Ltd that further work will be carried out to inform the preparation of the Hybrid Bill, including HS2 Ltd preparing an Interim Transport Assessment (including sensitivity testing), and during the Parliamentary processes.

  • The Manors of Allexton, Appleby and Ashby Folville
    The Manors of Allexton, Appleby and Ashby Folville. BY GEORGE FARNHAM, M.A., F.S.A., AND A. HAMILTON THOMPSON, M.A., F.S.A. PREFACE. Since the appearance of Nichols' History of Leicestershire, pub­ lished between 1795 and 1815, the materials for original work upon local history and topography have been considerably extended, and many classes of documents are now available for research which serve at once to supplement and correct the information contained in the older county histories.. While Nichols' famous volumes must always remain the foundation for any future work upon the history of Leicestershire, the student who knows how to make use of them finds that their statements constantly stand in need of verification and that their accuracy is seriously impaired by their author's partial and arbitrary use of his documents. For some time past the present writers have entertained the idea of bringing together the results of their several collections of material illus­ trating the manorial and ecclesiastical annals of the county, and it will be found that the notes which follow in the form of con­ nected narratives endeavour to fill up gaps in the story of the three places concerned and to present in consecutive order information which hitherto has been treated merely in outline or overlooked altogether. For the chief part of the work, tracing the descent of the manors, and for the pedigrees Mr. Farnham is responsible. The notes upon advowsons and the lists of incumbents, which con­ siderably amplify Nichols' imperfect and carelessly compiled lists, are supplied by his collaborator.
