But too many of them are suffering from neglect, decay and pressure from development. Heritage at Risk is a national project to identify these endangered places and then help secure their future. In 2008 English Heritage published its first register of Heritage at Risk – a region-by-region list of all the Grade I and II* listed buildings (and Grade II listed buildings in London), structural scheduled monuments, registered battlefields and protected wreck sites in England known to be ‘at risk’.

Over that time, we have reduced the number of historic sites which have been at risk from destruction or demolition in many parts of the East of England region.The first category of assets which we focused on were Buildings at Risk. In our region, which has suffered the vicissitudes of industrial slumps and changing demographics alongside periods of rapid economic growth, this has led to a number of important buildings facing serious threats. Some of these are redundant farm buildings, mills and industrial structures, others are anything from private houses to ornamental follies. With the expansion of the Buildings at Risk Register and developers to proceed with some building projects, to a Heritage at Risk Register we have undertaken an with the reduced availability of funding. We understand, assessment of registered battlefields, registered parks and too, why it may sometimes be necessary to delay a gardens, scheduled monuments, conservation areas and project, although we also know that to put off routine protected wreck sites. These additional categories have repairs can in the long term be a false economy.

  • Settlement Appraisal East of Welwyn Garden City
    Settlement Appraisal East of Welwyn Garden City 1. History 1.1 The Supporting Document to the Preferred Options District Plan records the various assessment stages that were undertaken to inform the Preferred Options Draft of the District Plan. It therefore provides an essential background to this current Settlement Appraisal. Chapter 4 of the Supporting Document explains the process of shortlisting or ‘sieving’ options or ‘Areas of Search’. Chapter 5 considers two further appraisal stages based on urban form and economic development. 1.2 Chapter 6 considered issues such as the Duty-to-Co-operate, whether there are any designated wildlife assets in the area, education capacity at primary and secondary level and the deliverability of the site as a potential development. The chapter also discussed matters of mineral resource, the need to avoid sterilisation and the potential impact this would have on the deliverability of the site and its potential future phasing within the overall development strategy. The chapter then set out the conclusions for the land to the East of Welwyn Garden City in terms of whether it would form part of the emerging District Plan. 1.3 It was determined that given the complexities of the site’s cross-boundary nature, the likely need for mineral extraction and subsequent land remediation, the site would need to be comprehensively masterplanned. This detailed masterplanning would be best dealt with through the preparation of a Development Plan Document (DPD) following the adoption of the District Plan. The DPD approach would set out the Council’s intention to deliver development at the location during the latter part of the Plan period, but would enable further work to be undertaken to define Green Belt boundaries, infrastructure requirements and delivery, and to enable a more collaborative approach to cross-boundary working.

  • 2018 WALK 5 the Cole Green Way and Panshanger Park, Including the Proposed Site of Birchall Garden Suburb to the East of Welwyn Garden City
    2018 WALK 5 The Cole Green Way and Panshanger Park, including the proposed site of Birchall Garden Suburb to the east of Welwyn Garden City Throughout 2018, our walk each month will feature the corresponding site in our "Countryside Under Threat" calendar. Our aim is to highlight these sites and raise their profile in aid of local campaigns to prevent their inappropriate development. Our May walk of just under 5¼ miles explores Green Belt countryside in East Hertfordshire and Welwyn Hatfield Districts, to the east of Welwyn Garden City. The proposed Birchall Garden Suburb on the eastern edge of Welwyn GC and spreading out towards Panshanger Lane and the A414 would eventually comprise 2,550 new homes in what is now Green Belt. Agricultural land would be lost and precious urban-fringe countryside, so important for health and well-being, would disappear. Birchall Wood, where there are lovely bluebells, would have housing on on its eastern and western boundaries: inevitably greatly increased visitor pressure would overwhelm these flowers. The walk also takes in part of the Cole Green Way which occupies the route of the former Hertford and Welwyn Junction railway, follows a short stretch of one of the Chain Walks devised by the East Herts Footpath Socierty in the 1980s, and visits Panshanger Park, recently reopened to the public after extensive gravel extraction. The walk visits a small section of Panshanger Park: there is more of the park to explore if you wish. Beyond Panshanger Park the walk goes south along Panshanger Lane for approximately one third of a mile.

    Enjoy! a journey through East Hertfordshire Contents Pages Introduction 1 History & Folklore 2 - 12 Local Attractions 13 - 14 Tourist Information 15 Local Markets 16 Map of the Area 17 - 18 Introduction Set in attractive rolling countryside, East Herts has a great deal to offer both the visitor and the people who live and work here. This leaflet takes you through some of our picturesque villages situated between the traditional market towns of Bishop’s Stortford, Buntingford, Hertford, Sawbridgeworth and Ware highlighting some of our history and folklore. Find out which village has Hertfordshire’s last surviving 17th Century Mill and which village was home to a witch. Discover what town had a Great Bed that could sleep a dozen at any one time. During your journey you will discover many traditional pubs, tea rooms and restaurants providing refreshments and hospitality. If you’re looking to stay you will find accommodation from farmhouse bed and breakfast to 5 star hotels. 1 History & Folklore Albury - Folklore says that Albury has been touched by the Devil’s hand. In 1880 one of the four church bells fell to the foot of the tower but before it could be repaired or replaced, it disappeared. Some say it was stolen by the Devil. Anstey - Folklore claims that there is a mile long cave which runs from the west to Cave Gate. Locals say that the passage, rediscovered in 1904, is inhabited by a dragon. Although the cave is now grassed over it is possible that it was an entrance to a prehistoric flint mine. The last person to have ventured into the passage was a local fiddler called Blind George who accepted a wager to explore it.

Greenspace Action Plans (GAPs) GAPs are map based management plans and are invaluable documents that give focus and direction to the running and improvement of all types of open space. They provide a clear, logical process to determine the activities that should take place on a site, over a stated period of time, in order to meet agreed project objectives and core aspirations. ii. Public engagement Public engagement and consulting with stakeholders is at the centre of effective management planning on any site. An initial engagement period was held for the Cole Green Way in September and October 2017, to compile the aspirations of stakeholders for the site. A second stage of engagement completed in February and March 2018 enabled stakeholders to comment on the proposed management actions for the site.
