The purpose of a Village Design Statement (VDS) is to enable local people to have a say in how they wish their village to develop so that it does not lose its essential characteristics. The Terling and Fairstead Village Design Statement describes the particular character of our Parish and makes recommendations (guidelines) to influence future planning and development. It has been drawn up by representatives of the Parish in full consultation with the residents, businesses and the local planning authorities. The VDS is no paper exercise. Braintree District Council (BDC) formally approves the guidelines in a VDS and uses them in the determination of planning applications. This means that private and public planners and developers, builders, landowners, employers, architects and homeowners need to view it so that they can make informed decisions about how their plans affect the village character and environment. -

River Basin Management Plan Anglian River Basin District
River Basin Management Plan Anglian River Basin District Annex D: Protected area objectives Contents D.1 Introduction 2 D.2 Types and location of protected areas 3 D.3 Monitoring network 12 D.4 Objectives 19 D.5 Compliance (results of monitoring) including 22 actions (measures) for Surface Water Drinking Water Protected Areas and Natura 2000 Protected Areas D.6 Other information 118 D.1 Introduction The Water Framework Directive specifies that areas requiring special protection under other EC Directives and waters used for the abstraction of drinking water are identified as protected areas. These areas have their own objectives and standards. Article 4 of the Water Framework Directive requires Member States to achieve compliance with the standards and objectives set for each protected area by 22 December 2015, unless otherwise specified in the Community legislation under which the protected area was established. Some areas may require special protection under more than one EC Directive or may have additional (surface water and/or groundwater) objectives. In these cases, all the objectives and standards must be met. Article 6 requires Member States to establish a register of protected areas. The types of protected areas that must be included in the register are: • areas designated for the abstraction of water for human consumption (Drinking Water Protected Areas); • areas designated for the protection of economically significant aquatic species (Freshwater Fish and Shellfish); • bodies of water designated as recreational waters, including areas designated as Bathing Waters; • nutrient-sensitive areas, including areas identified as Nitrate Vulnerable Zones under the Nitrates Directive or areas designated as sensitive under Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD); • areas designated for the protection of habitats or species where the maintenance or improvement of the status of water is an important factor in their protection including 1 relevant Natura 2000 sites. -

FOREWORD Gass Established in 1989 the National Rivers Authority has as its role the "Guardians of the Water Environment". As such it is committed to protecting and improving the water environment in its broadest sense. Establishing a sound planning base for the development of river catchments is essential to good future management. Integrated Catchment Management Planning will play an increasingly important role in the NRA’s management of the water environment. Demands upon catchments are many and varied, and conflicts require careful consideration. The enhancement of the water environment is one of the main aims of consultation with individuals and organisations having an interest in the catchment. This report examines the Rivers Blackwater, Pant, Colne, Chelmer, Wid, Can, Holland Brook, Asheldham Brook, their tributaries, their catchments and their offshore tidal waters. The Blackwater Catchment contains the NRA’s newest tidal flood defence barrier which is on the Colne Estuary below Colchester. Also within the area of this Plan are some of the country's most important saltmarsh and mudflat environments which support internationally important wildfowl populations. The dry nature of this catchment, together with its high water demand, make water resource requirements a high priority. -
Chelmford City Council Leez Priory Little Leighs Tl 701
CHELMFORD CITY COUNCIL LEEZ PRIORY LITTLE LEIGHS TL 701 185 The site of a former Austin Canons monastery with its own 100 acre monastic park. After the dissolution Sir Richard Rich built a new mansion and pleasure grounds and added high status parks to the west and south. After the demolition of most of the mansion, and the reversion of both house and the parks to agricultural use in C18, the surviving Tudor buildings and garden were restored to country house use in 1908-15 by Chancellor & Son of Chelmsford HISTORIC DEVELOPMENT The date of the foundation of Leez Priory is unknown but it was in existence by the end of the twelfth century. Over the next two centuries the priory steadily acquired property; though much of this was in Suffolk and further afield in Essex, there were significant acquisitions in the adjoining parishes of Little and Great Leighs, Felsted and Little Waltham. In 1381 the prior was granted a license to enclose 100 acres of land and wood in Little Leighs to make a park (CPR 4 Rich 11, 608). The location and boundaries of this park have not been identified, but it was probably largely, or entirely, within the parish of Little Leighs. Nothing is known about the monastic precinct, except that it was probably protected from flooding by a defensive bank along the side of the nearby River Ter to the north (Clapham 1914, 215). The priory was dissolved in 1536 and swiftly granted, on 27 May of the same year, to Sir Richard Rich (c1496-1567), together with various properties belonging to the priory, including the manors of Great and Little Leighs, and two manors in Felsted. -
