    Land off Warwick Road, North of 12/01789/OUT Hanwell Fields, Banbury Ward: Banbury Hardwick and District Councillors: Councillor Donaldson, Wroxton Councillor Ilott, Councillor Turner and Councillor Webb Case Officer: Jane Dunkin/Tracey Recommendation: Approval Morrissey Applicant: Persimmon Homes Ltd Application Description: Outline application for up to 350 dwellings, together with new vehicular access from Warwick Road an associated open space Committee Referral: Major Application (exceeds 10 dwellings and 1ha) and Departure from Policy 1. Site Description and Proposed Development 1.1 The application was deferred from last month’s meeting to allow for the current focussed consultation exercise to be completed which allowed for representations to be received by 23 rd May 2013 (consultation expiry date). The consultation period has now closed and the representations that have been received will be reported to the Executive in due course. Although these comments are presently unresolved, for the purposes of considering this current application, the Council has a continuing obligation to determine planning applications as and when submitted, on the basis of existing policy and other material considerations. Therefore it cannot, in effect, create a hiatus in determining planning applications pending the examination of its emerging local plan. 1.2 The application relates to a site that has been identified for residential development in the Proposed Submission Local Plan Incorporating Proposed Changes (March 2013) (PSLPIPC). The site as a whole covers an area of some 20.2ha and forms the greater part of the approx 26ha allocated site to the north of Dukes Meadow Drive and to the east of Warwick Road.

  • Total Carbon Footprint Per Capita

    Total Carbon Footprint Per Capita

    District Data Analysis Service August 2021 Chart of the month August 2021 – Total carbon footprint per capita This month’s chart looks at the carbon footprint per person based on seven underlying sources of emissions data: Electricity, Gas, Other Heating, Car Driving, Van Driving, Flights, and Consumption of goods and services. This is particularly interesting given the current worldwide environmental crisis. This data has been obtained from the place-based carbon calculator produced with funding from UK Research and Innovation through the Centre for Research into Energy Demand Solutions. The areas in the maps are displayed at Lower-layer Super Output Area (LSOA) level. This dataset has been made available in July 2021. For more information, please visit the Place-Based Carbon calculator. Key findings: Overall, all the districts in Oxfordshire scored above the England overall carbon footprint of 8,355 Kg CO2 per capita, where highest means worst and lowest means best. Areas with the highest scores in the districts were Flights, Cars, Food & Drink, and Recreation. The following chart shows the amount of Kg CO2 for every source in England compared to the districts in Oxfordshire. The dashed line (---) across the chart shows the England target for 2032 (2,849).

    Banbury Vision & Masterplan Consultation Statement November 2016 CONSULTATION STATEMENT BANBURY MASTERPLAN & VISION SUPPLEMENTARY PLANNING DOCUMENT Prepared under Regulation 12(a) of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 1. Purpose and background 1.1 This Consultation Statement has been prepared in line with Regulation 12(a) of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012, which states that, before a council adopts a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD), it must produce a statement setting out: i. The persons the local planning authority consulted when preparing the supplementary planning document; ii. A summary of the main issues raised by those persons; and iii. How those issues have been addressed in the supplementary planning document. 1.2 The Banbury Vision & Masterplan was prepared in accordance with the Council's Statement of Community Involvement (2006), which was updated in July 2016. This can be viewed on the Council’s website at: http://www.cherwell.gov.uk/ index.cfm?articleid=9648. 1.3 Legislation and guidance sets out the requirements for preparing SPDs as part of the planning system. This enables SPDs to be prepared to expand upon existing planning policy. The adopted Cherwell Local Plan 2011-2031 together with the Banbury Vision & Masterplan establishes the long-term vision for the town and identifies the projects and initiatives to support growth. The SPD will contribute towards the delivery of the Cherwell Local Plan. 1.4 The Banbury Vision & Masterplan SPD is formed from six inter-connecting strategic objectives that will: i. Promote Banbury as the regional service centre of choice for the wider region; ii.

    Application No: 08/02066/F Ward: Banbury Ruscote Date Valid: 29/09/08 Applicant: Oxfordshire Care Partnership Site Address: Formerly Neithrop County Primary Infants School, Prescott Close, Banbury Proposal: Construction of extra care block of 40 No. flats and 60 bed care home with associated gardens and 42 car parking spaces. 1. Site Description and Proposal The site was previously occupied by Niethrop County Primary School, sometimes referred to as Orchard Fields. The site has a total area of 1.6 hectares. To the north west of the site are the rear gardens of the properties on Prescott Close, to the north east is a public footpath and the rear gardens of properties on The Fairway, to the south east is a strip of open space, public footpath and properties along Mold Crescent whilst to the south west is the open space. The site itself is accessed from Prescott Close and slopes down considerably towards the south east. The original school buildings have all been demolished resulting in a large expanse of open space with areas of hard standing and foundations remaining on site. There are a number of trees on the site and along the entire boundary is a 2 metre high green palisade fence with some areas of hedging and trees that partially screen the site. The proposal is for the construction of a block of 40 extra care flats and a 60 bed care home. The development consists of two independent buildings each of which will be 2 and 3 stories in height, making use of the sloping land levels.

    Oxfordshire Local Transport Plan LTP3 2011-2030 Updated May 2014 _____________________________________________________________________ 15. Banbury Area Strategy The Local Context 15.1 Banbury is a thriving historic market town and serves as retail, commercial and employment centre for a wide catchment. Located 25 miles north of Oxford, it is the largest town in the Cherwell district with a population of around 45,000. It has a diverse economy which is focused on manufacturing, logistics and distribution, and services. The historic Banbury Cross, together with the Oxford Canal and Castle Quay Shopping Centre, make for great leisure and retail attractions. 15.2 The aim in Banbury is to strengthen the town centre by boosting its vitality and quality through regeneration and strengthening commercial and retail activities, while safeguarding its historical character. 15.3 The Cherwell Local Plan anticipates that the town will continue to grow and become a larger and more important economic and social focus for its residents, businesses and surrounding area. By 2031 the town is planned to have a further approximately 2,500 new homes. It will establish a more diverse economy and new employment areas. The Banbury Masterplan aspires to raise the quality and rejuvenate parts of the town centre with a focus on developing shopping, leisure and night time economy activities. 15.4 The Masterplan promotes the expansion of the town centre through a new retail development on the junction of Calthorpe Street and Marlborough Road, as well as an extension of the Castle Quay Shopping Centre, which will include more leisure, dining and entertainment uses. In addition, the plan sets out proposals for residential and office developments, including Bolton Road and the revival of the area linking St Mary’s Church to the town centre.

    Lark Rise Observations

    1st July, 2008 Issue 21 Oxfordshire Record Office, St Luke’s Church, Temple Road, Cowley, Oxford, OX4 2HT. Telephone 01865 398200. Email [email protected]: www.oxfordshire.gov.uk LARK RISE OBSERVATIONS THE SMITHY AT FRINGFORD Page 1 SEE PAGES 2 and 3 - for ‘Observations’ 1st July, 2008 Issue 21 LARK RISE OBSERVATIONS Anyone watching the recent BBC adaptations of FloraThompson’s Lark Rise to Candleford trilogy will be aware that, although filmed elsewhere, the novels are set in the north-east corner of Oxfordshire with Lark Rise representing Juniper Hill and Candleford supposedly an amalgam of Banbury, Bicester, Brackley and Buckingham. Flora Thompson (nee Timms) lived at End House in Juniper Hill, a hamlet of Cottisford where she attended the local Board school and church on Sundays. Her job in the post office was at Fringford (about 4-5 miles away). In the novels Flora called herself Laura and in the TV series her parents are called Robert and Emma Timmins. In real life her family name was Timms and her parents were called Albert and Emma. The End House where they lived in Juniper Hill can still be seen today (part of a modern dwelling) and its location can be seen on an OS map, c1900. The Cottisford parish registers reveal that 10 children of Albert and Emma were baptized in the church, starting with Martha on 13th Nov 1875 and ending with Cecil Barrie on 6th Mar 1898 (over 20 years, by which time Emma was in her mid-40s). Four of the children, including Martha, Albert (born 1882), Ellen Mary (born 1893) and Cecil Barrie (buried 4th Apr 1900) died in infancy.
