Unauthorised reproduction infringes Crown Copyright and may lead to prosecution or civil proceedings Licence No: 100019329 Site Description: The site is located to the north of Loughborough Road, Coleorton. The site is Brownfield land currently occupied by a garage business. There are residential properties adjoining the site to the east, and west. There is open countryside to the north of the site. The site is a mixture of Grade 3 and Grade 4 Agricultural Land, the site is within the National Forest. The southern extent of the site falls within the Highways Consultation Zone. Suitability: • Planning Policy: The site is located within the Limits to Development as identified on the adopted Local Plan Proposals Map (2002). The adopted Affordable Housing SPD requires, in Coleorton, 30% affordable housing on developments of 5 or more dwellings. • Highways: There are no apparent fundamental Highways reasons for this site to be excluded from consideration. There is a limited bus service within 800 m of the site although non‐car travel is considered unlikely. • Ecology: There are no designated ecological sites within the site boundary and no potential BAP habitats have been identified at the site. The site is considered to be acceptable from an ecology point of view. Although the site is not in a particularly sustainable location in terms of access to services and facilities it is brownfield land and is within the Limits to Development. The site is considered suitable. Availability: The site is promoted by the land owner; there are no known ownership issues. It is considered that the site is potentially available. Achievability: There are no known achievability or viability issues, the site is considered potentially achievable.

The site is Greenfield land currently used for agricultural purposes. The site is undulating with a steep slope down from the road to the west. Mature hedges and post and rail fence enclose the field boundaries. There are residential properties to the north east, east and south east of the site, there are allotments to the north and employment premises to the west. The site is Grade 4 Agricultural Land. The site borders an area of TPO Woodland and an Ancient Monument (coal mining remains). Part of the site is within the Highways Consultation Zone. Suitability: • Planning Policy: The site is located outside the Limits to Development as identified on the adopted Local Plan Proposals Map (2002). The adopted Affordable Housing SPD requires, in Newbold, 30% affordable housing on developments of 5 or more dwellings. • Highways: The site’s limited frontage to the highway would make it difficult to achieve an appropriate access with the required visibility splays whilst speeds along Worthington Lane are likely to be above the limit. The site has minimal bus services and is remote from services, and therefore it is likely that residents would rely heavily on car travel. This site is therefore unlikely to be acceptable to the Highway Authority. • Ecology: There are no designated ecological sites within the site boundary although the woodland to the north of the site is a candidate Local Wildlife Site. There is potential for badgers to inhabit the site. The hedges and adjacent woodland represent potential Biodiversity Action Plan habitats. The site is considered to be acceptable with mitigation, namely the retention of a 5m buffer zone along significant hedges; not to be incorporated into garden boundaries but managed as part of open space, to ensure habitat continuity and retain connectivity. Furthermore, a buffer area to Newbold Woodland should be retained. The site is considered potentially suitable. A change in the Limits to Development would be required for the site to be considered suitable. Availability: The site is promoted by the land owner although there is no known developer interest. It is considered that the site is potentially available. Achievability: There are no known achievability of viability issues therefore the site is considered potentially achievable.

The site is fairly flat along its boundary with Loughborough Road but it does slope steeply downwards towards Stoney Lane. The site is bound by mature hedgerows. There are residential properties to the north and west of the site and agricultural land to the south and east. The site is Grade 4 Agricultural Land. The part of the site fronting Loughborough Road is within the Highways Consultation Zone. There is a historic landfill site to the south of Loughborough Road, opposite part of the site. The site is within the National Forest. Suitability: • Planning Policy: The site is located outside the Limits to Development as identified on the adopted Local Plan Proposals Map (2002). The adopted Affordable Housing SPD requires, in Coleorton, 30% affordable housing on developments of 5 or more dwellings. • Highways: Loughborough Road is subject to a 50mph speed limit whilst Bradford’s Lane is a single track road meaning neither road is currently appropriate to gain access from. Coleorton has a minimal bus service therefore there would be heavy reliance on the private car. Therefore, this site is unacceptable to the Highway Authority. • Ecology: The site is a candidate Local Wildlife Site. There is the potential for badgers to inhabit the site. The site is known to support species‐rich grassland as identified in 2008. The species‐rich grassland is a potential Biodiversity Action Plan habitat. The site is considered unsuitable in ecology terms. The site is considered potentially suitable; a change in the Limits to Development would be required for the site to be considered suitable. Availability: The site is in single ownership and is promoted by the landowner, there is no known developer interest. It is considered that the site is available. Achievability: There are no known achievability or viability issues, however there maybe an issue with access. The the site is considered potentially achievable.

  • Coalville Fringe Assessment
    Urban Fringe 1: Western edge of Thringstone and New Swannington 1: View from School Lane 2: View from Red Hill Lane Element Assessment Score The Coalfield: Gently undulating landscape with effects of past and present coal and clay working. It displays a relatively dense pattern of former mining towns and villages characterised by 19th century mining terraces which follow the roads. The landscape is characterised by mixed farmland although away from settlements the land is mostly arable. There is generally low woodland cover. The land contains areas of restored land, some including establishing heathland, once far more extensive. Around Coalville the landscape is influenced by Bardon 21 warehousing, Bardon quarry and other light industrial development. Bardon Hill and quarry are features within views. The assessment notes that the land is part of the National Forest. Northern tip is part of Charnwood Forest: The underlying pre-Cambrian rocks result in a varied, hilly landform with exposed crags and rocky knolls and fast-flowing streams, resulting in a distinctive County Landscape character. The area has a high concentration of mixed deciduous and coniferous woodland, including many ancient woodland sites, hedges and hedgerow trees, some of which is unmanaged. The character area area is characterised by an intimate mixture of woodland and farmland in mixed arable and pasture uses. The area’s acidic soils support pockets of heathland vegetation, particularly around rocky outcrops, where the land has never been taken into cultivation. There is variable field patterns, with irregular fields often bounded by mixed hedges contrasted with long narrow rectilinear fields with stone walls.

Leicestershire Highways is upgrading the County Councils street lighting stock to LEDs, in order to make substantial savings in energy, carbon and maintenance costs. Leicestershire County Council will be carrying out over 68,000 street light replacements across the county and are programmed to complete all installations within the next 3 years. Initially we are concentrating on the low level street lights (5 & 6m columns) which are mainly in residential areas with the high level installations (6m & above) due to commence from October this year. 2. The first low level installations were successfully carried out in Shepshed, as programmed in March this year, before a full roll-out of four installation teams started work in Loughborough, Hugglescote and Whitwick throughout April and into May. The project is progressing well and is on programme both in time and budget. 3. Details of the full construction programme for the project are being prepared in a suitable format to share with Members and residents and we anticipate this information will be available by the end of June. 4. The table below provides the implementation programme to the end of the current financial year. 2016 May Whitwick, Loughborough, Coalville June Coalville cont., Oadby & Wigston July Ravenstone, Packington, Coleorton, Ellistown, Swannington, Ibstock, Anstey,

Fearn A Light in the Darkness – the Taper Burns of Donington le Heath Manor House By Alison Fearn, PhD candidate, University of Leicester Summary In 2016 the author undertook an in-depth survey and analysis of the medieval manor house of Donington le Heath in Leicestershire. During the investigation, a large number of markings and graffiti were recorded across the structure. Further analysis of the markings, their form, and their distribution led to the conclusion that most were ritual in nature and were created to add a significant layer of spiritual protection to vulnerable areas of the structure. Introduction The vast majority of the markings recorded at Donington le Heath are considered to be “ritual protection marks”; symbols that had an apotropaic function, which, in their simplest form were designed to ward off evil influences and misfortune.
