B78 3YB 01827 50230 [email protected] 14/02/13 Mrs Clare Egginton Principal Development Plans Officer Lichfield District Council District Council House Frog Lane Lichfield WS13 6YU Dear Clare Re: Application for Designation of a Neighbourhood Area At the Parish Council meeting held on 7th February 2013 it was resolved that the Parish Council should apply to Lichfield District Council to request that the Parish of Wigginton and Hopwas be designated a Neighbourhood Area. Accordingly as a Parish Council and relevant body for the purposes of section 61G of the 1990 Act we enclose a map identifying the Parish of Wigginton and Hopwas which we believe is an area appropriate to be designated a Neighbourhood Area. The Parish of Wigginton and Hopwas is predominately rural, comprising the villages of Hopwas and Wigginton, the hamlet of Comberford, and several farms and outlying properties. It is bordered on the south by the town of Tamworth, which is used for services by many residents. The Parish Council believes that the development of a Neighbourhood Plan through consultation with residents is appropriate for providing for the needs of the communities which it serves.

Information provided within the document will inform the preparation of a Core Strategy for the District as part of the Local Development Framework, in particular in the consideration of potential development locations within the District and an overall spatial strategy for longer term development having regard to principles of sustainability. 1.2 In his report on the Public Examination into the District Council’s first submitted Core Strategy (withdrawn 2006), the Inspector concluded that although there were proposed housing allocations within some of the District’s rural settlements, there was a lack of evidence in relation to the suitability of villages in the District to accommodate growth. He considered that the relative sustainability of different settlements should have been assessed as part of the preparation of the Core Strategy. He indicated that an assessment of the sustainability of rural settlements would ensure that the scale and location of development outside the District’s two main towns was driven by overall sustainability considerations, rather than simply the availability of previously developed land.

  • Wigginton & Hopwas Neighbourhood Plan – Historic Environment Map 1
    Wigginton & Hopwas Neighbourhood Plan – Historic Environment Map 1: Designated Heritage Assets The map identifies the designated heritage assets within the parish. There are two Conservation Areas: Hopwas and Wigginton. There are also 15 Grade II Listed buildings and structures and a further 14 buildings within Hopwas which have been identified as being of local importance following the Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan carried out by Lichfield District Council in May 2012 (http://www.lichfielddc.gov.uk/downloads/file/5037/hopwas_conservation_area_appr aisal_and_management_plan ). This document also provides detailed information on the significance and local character of the village. It should be noted that there are other historic buildings which are not designated which may be deemed to contribute to the local character of the parish and to the individual villages; this may include buildings within Comberford and Wigginton as well as the historic farmsteads (see below). Policy wording which seeks to protect and enhance the character of the settlements in terms of materials used, scale etc. may be appropriate to retain their local distinctiveness. Map 2: Sites of known archaeological interest (excluding buildings and structures) The map shows those sites recorded on the Staffordshire Historic Environment Record (HER), excluding buildings and structures, which are deemed to have an archaeological interest. The Staffordshire HER is a database which records all of the known archaeological sites and monuments as well as the historic buildings. It also incorporates information on archaeological work that has been carried out within the county and further information can be found at www.staffordshire.gov.uk/Historic- Environment-Record .

  • The Granary Fisherwick Road | Lichfield | Staffordshire
    The Granary Fisherwick Road | Lichfield | Staffordshire THE GRANARY Stunning barn conversion of nearly 4,000ft2, steeped with history and amazing features, hidden in a private development of six country homes down a three quarter mile private driveway. The property has four bedrooms and five reception rooms including a very impressive drawing room with full height ceilings and gallery landing. Step Inside The Granary Converted in 1990 and said to be the tallest remaining barn in Staffordshire, the height of this Grade ll listed property offers a sense of grandeur as one enters the full height drawing room with flagstone floors and welcoming inglenook fireplace. A gated driveway leads to the integral double garage with the property enjoying two small garden areas, the former is perfect for entertaining with pergola and lantern lighted barbeque area. The latter is an easily maintained lawn area. The original barn was built in 1360 and unfortunately burnt down but it was rebuilt in 1540 and we still retain some of the original wall. There are Tudor roses imprinted into the beams and these little details add to the sense of times gone by, it really does feel like an old barn with an immense history. A spiral staircase leads from the family room up to a galleried upper floor office / snug. The galleried landing offers an additional area to relax and provides access to the show stopping dining room with vaulted beam ceiling overlooking the drawing room. A great gym/dance studio on the ground floor with window was originally part of the garage block and could be converted to a number of uses.
