2 NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation AREA SUMMARY

Found next to the river Tamar and north of the A38, the North West boasts spectacular views over the river Tamar and towards Dartmoor and the area contains large amounts of green-space which both contribute to the local character of the area and act as a clear boundary to smaller neighbourhoods, particularly around Ernesettle and Whitleigh. The numerous green spaces and the A38 however, does restrict movement to the south, but movement across the area is assisted by Crownhill Road.

The area boasts numerous amenities, including a large hypermarket and other local facilities and services with a district shopping centre at Transit Way and local facilities at Honickowle Green and on Crownhill Road.

As well as having various amenities, the area covers the majority of Tamerton Foliot neighbourhood which is one of Plymouth’s key historic neighbourhoods where the centre is a designated conservation area with a number of listed buildings and listed monuments.

KEY FACT The population of the areas is 23,292 and contains 10,341 households with the population density being relatively low throughout the area with a high reliance on car usage.

NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation 3 What we found out about your community Plymouth Plan Theme There is a high proportion of young people living in the area

The area lacks diversity in its sports facilities

There is a high proportion of social rented homes and private ownership in some parts of the North West with low numbers of private rented properties across the locality Housing type is generally mixed between terraced, semi- detached and purpose built flats with a low percentage of detached properties Although options to travel to work in a sustainable way are above average, some communities around Tamerton Foliot and Budshead have lower than average use Residents have good access to local bus services, which serve the main neighbourhood centres

A lower percentage of people cycle to work than the English and Plymouth averages

Most neighbourhoods have a low density of dwellings and were designed around car travel which is unfriendly to walking and cycling and increases distances to neighbourhood facilities A steep topography reduces the amount of people who are likely to walk to work or to the local centre

Due to Ministry of Defence land ownership and large river side employment uses, access to the waterfront is poor

The number of people providing unpaid care in the area is

high and some areas have significant health issues HEALTH AND WELLBEING Health is poor in some communities around Ernesettle

and Whitleigh compared to the rest of the Area and these HEALTH AND areas also have high levels of unpaid care provision WELLBEING Educational attainment is poor with a higher than average number of people with no qualifications and a lower than average number for people who have higher levels of education As the area is predominantly residential, there is a lack of opportunities for local employment ECONOMY

4 NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation HEALTH AND ECONOMY WELLBEING

Potential objectives for change Plymouth Plan Theme Improve the diversity of sport facilities in the area

Provide a mix of housing types in areas where there is an imbalance when opportunities arise, larger, semi-detached in particular Areas which have a higher than average level of socially rented housing may benefit from some rebalancing to introduce more private housing, either rented or in ownership to improve the mixture of tenure. Improve cycle networks in the area to encourage take up of cycling

Improve pedestrian access/movement around smaller neighbourhoods which are currently difficult to navigate

Improve access to the waterfront

Investigate ways to improve health, perhaps through more varied sports facility provision or by investing in new health HEALTH AND facilities which is currently lacking in the area WELLBEING Investigate ways to improve education attainment

Consider accommodating more mixed use developments to improve employment provision in the area and providing better links to Derriford and other neighbouring ECONOMY employment areas Retain and improve the areas greenspaces which help contribute to the local character

Improve awareness of historic fortifications in the area

8 NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation WHAT IS THE CULTURAL BACKGROUND OF THE AREA? The cultural background of the area is predominantly white with low numbers of black and minority ethnic (BME) communities living in the area, neighbourhoods which do have a slightly higher numbers of BME communities than others also have a direct correlation with areas where English is not the main language.

In this area, the amount of people who classify themselves as Christian is below both the English and the Plymouth percentage, a higher percentage of people in Plymouth however classify themselves as having no religion.

10 NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation HOW LIKELY ARE PEOPLE TO ATTEND ARTS EVENTS?

The likelihood for attendance at arts events (which includes any performance in a theatre; art gallery or exhibition; pop/rock concert, jazz/classical music event, and contemporary dance event) is very low in this area of Plymouth. This is similar to other northerly areas of Plymouth which suggests that access plays a large part in a person deciding to attend an event or not.

12 NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation ARE PEOPLE WITHIN A 10 MINUTE WALK OF LOCAL SHOPS AND SERVICES? The area to the south of the area is well served by local shops and services, particularly in the neighbourhood of Honicknowle where the Honicknowle Green local centre serves the surrounding community and where the West Park local centre, on the busy Crownhill Road, comprises 24 units in parades of shops on either side of the road and includes a nursery and a library. Ernesettle is also well served by a local centre. While the south and the west are well served however with many of the neighbourhoods having various services in walking distance, neighbourhoods such as Tamerton Foliot and parts of Whitleigh are not.

HOUSING

WHAT IS THE MIX OF HOUSING TENURE LIKE? ECONOMY This area of Plymouth has high levels of socially rented housing and a lower than average amount of privately rented homes across the whole of the area. Spatially however, when the area is broken down there appears to be high concentrations of socially rented housing (between 46 per cent and 62 per cent) in Ernesettle, Whitleigh and Honicknowle, these generally correlate with areas showing high levels of deprivation. There are also pockets of areas which have relatively high levels of properties in private ownership (between 61 per cent and 78 per cent), for instance in Tamerton Foliot and Crownhill indicating that, although the averages may present a lack of tenure, by looking closer at specific areas, it can be concluded that overall the area has a good mix of housing tenure.

16 NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation WHAT IS THE HOUSING TYPE? ECONOMY This area is predominantly a mixture of semi-detached, terraced and purpose built flats with a lower than average percentage of detached properties. The centre of the area contains a higher proportions of flats, specifically around the neighbourhoods of Whitleigh and parts of Crownhill. Semi-detached houses are evenly spread throughout the area but there are higher concentrations to the south, around Honicknowle and Crownhill. Terraced houses are in very high concentrations to the south-east.

18 NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation ARE THERE ANY PROPERTIES UNDER OR OVER OCCUPIED? ECONOMY In this area there are high levels of under-occupation of dwellings in some areas, particularly around Crownhill and to the north in Tamerton Foliot meaning that a large majority of people live in houses where the numbers of bedrooms seem to be higher than what is needed compared to the number of people living in the house. There are however high levels of over occupation in Whitleigh where people ideally require need more bedrooms than they currently have.

TRANSPORT

IS IT EASY TO GET AROUND THE AREA? The area mainly consists of residential communities which are well-connected by roads that link well to the rest of Plymouth and adjacent neighbourhoods. There are two main routes, Crownhill Road and Tamerton Foliot Road and a comprehensive road network. Residents have access to a good and regular local bus service, which connects to the main neighbourhood centres. There is reasonable access to employment sites by bus including routes that go to the Derriford area and the City Centre.

To the western edge of the area, near Ernesettle, there are industrial uses that have good access to the A38 trunk road which connects the city to the rest of the UK KEY FACT by road. The Tamar Bridge lies at the very western extent of the area and provides pedestrian, cycle and road access to Cornwall. Some congestion occurs at peak The area is well connected times on Crownhill Road, particularly approaching the A38 and at Transit Way. by bus

Most neighbourhoods have a low density of dwellings and were designed around car travel. This is unhelpful for walking and cycling because the lack of foot paths and cycle paths increases the distances to neighbourhood facilities. This is reflected in the findings where the use of more sustainable modes of travelling to work are low while the use of a car or van, either as a passenger or the driver, and the use of a motorcycle, scooter or moped when travelling to work is above the Plymouth and the English average.

IS CYCLING EASY KEY FACT IN THE AREA? A new cycling route is currently being constructed Connectivity by foot and bicycle is difficult, while there are on-road cycle facilities to provide a safer and more on Crownhill Road it poses a barrier to north-south movement because of limites convenient route from crossing facilities. The Honicknowle area has poor pedestrian routes, which is likely Honicknowle to the City due to the topography of the area, making it difficult for people to walk to the areas Centre they need to. A new cycling route is currently being constructed to provide a safer and more convenient route from Honicknowle to the City Centre. Whitleigh and Honicknowle have 20mph zones that make walking and cycling safer and more pleasant.

NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation 23 HOW DO PEOPLE LIVING IN THE AREA TRAVEL TO WORK? Travelling to work in cars or vans has the greatest proportion of users of all modes of transport. The percentages of people who travel to work by bus is higher than the rest of the city, particularly in the west of the area and in parts of Honicknowle which is likely due to the distance away from the City Centre. There is a lower proportion of people opting to walk or cycle, this is probably due to the distance to employment areas, the topography of the land and the lack of infrastructure.

HEALTH

HOW HEALTHY DO PEOPLE FEEL? HEALTH AND WELLBEING Generally, people in the area feel healthy with 75.1 per cent of the population classifying themselves as feeling either in ‘good’ or ‘very good’ health categories while only 8.8 per cent classifying themselves as in either ‘bad’ or ‘very bad’ categories. Spatially however there are pockets with higher concentrations of people who feel they are in ‘bad’ or ‘very bad’ health, mostly in pockets of communities to the west, around Ernesettle and to the east, around Honicknowle and Whitleigh. Bad health appears to correlate with deprivation and with areas where higher numbers of people have their day to day activities limited.

NORTH WEST AREA ASSESSMENT Draft for Consultation 29 ARE THERE GOOD HEALTH FACILITIES NEARBY? Overall the health care provision in this area is generally good, there are four GPs in the area, one in each of the four neighbourhoods, one optician, three pharmacies and one dentist in the area. Although overall GP’s are evenly distributed throughout the area, there are low numbers of opticians and dentists in the area compared to other areas of Plymouth and three of the GPs in the area are under sized meaning that there is less GP floorspace available than is ideally needed.
