The Design & Access Statement has been produced by the Cornwall Planning Group on behalf of the client Mr B Thomas. This Statement accompanies associated plans and documentation, seeking the Councils permission on the principle of. Construction of Agricultural Building, Greenhouse Building & Associated Works on 35 Acre Farm. My client has recently established planning permission for a replacement farmhouse dwelling at his property ‘Pengelly’ with the land acquisition of 35 acres of surrounding land as indicated on our planning proposal. The need for the agricultural buildings is justified with the following processes. 1. Lambing Shed. 2. Potting shed and greenhouse to grow vegetables. 3. Various farming machinery. 4. The restoration of the land is currently undergoing a vast 650 tree planting scheme 5. The agricultural building will naturally need to be used as feed storage for the animals, as well as lambing and various other agricultural related activities. After conducting research of the site and surrounding area it has been noted that recent development sites have been approved within the area.

  • Ambience Transport Interchange
    Due to the curve of the harbour and railway area there is plenty of opportunity for views of the backdrop as described in the Landscape and Setting section, and there are views from the north across the sea of parked cars to ships masts and the bottom of the Barbican area. From the south end the views are more fragmented, with the backs of properties on Market Jew Street, the Wharfside development and railway station all lost in a melee of cars, signs and traffic signals. The view of the Abbey Basin, although compromised by signs, some modern railings, poles and landscaping schemes, is one of the best known in Penzance, immortalised by Stanhope Forbes. Ambience Near to Wharfside and the bus & railway stations road traffic dominates, while at the southern end there is the added factor of this being a working harbour, usually bustling with workmen, cranes, forklift trucks, deliveries and boat movements. While outside the new development at Wharfside pavements are wide, it is often an intimidating environment for pedestrians, who are confined along Wharf Road to a relatively narrow pavement. Even around the Wharfside area where attempts have been made by local businesses to provide pleasant outdoor areas to eat, this is spoilt by constant traffic fumes. On a quiet day, though, there is opportunity to enjoy the historic structures, buildings and boats of the working harbour and the rhythm created by the tide. In the season the inner harbour, always kept with water, is host to visiting tall ships, one of the major attractions of the area.

  • Ref: LCAA1820
    Ref: LCAA7254 Offers around £660,000 Kelynack Manor Farmhouse, Kelynack, St Just, Nr. Penzance, West Cornwall FREEHOLD At the head of the Cot Valley, a short walk to the cove and coast path, an extremely attractive double fronted detached, 4 bedroomed, former farmhouse, sympathetically restored in recent years, standing in extensive grounds of about ½ an acre including garaging and several granite barns. A very private home between the long sandy beach at Sennen and the magnificent Cape Cornwall headland, just a short drive from the facilities at St Just and Penzance. 2 Ref: LCAA7254 SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: entrance hall, sitting room, lounge, dining room, kitchen. First Floor: galleried landing, 4 bedrooms, large bathroom. Outside: gated driveway parking and double garage. Various granite barns with potential. Beautiful long established garden with orchard, vegetable garden and various terraces. In all, about ½ an acre. DESCRIPTION Kelynack Manor Farmhouse is perfectly located at the head of the Cot Valley which descends down to a picturesque boulder strewn cove and the South West Coast Path, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The house enjoys great privacy within its extensive gardens which are dotted with historic outbuildings. The area is steeped in history with the manor of Kelynack mentioned in the Domesday Book and there is much history around the grounds including a very well preserved forge in one of the outbuildings. The house itself is extremely attractive with the south west facing principal façade being of granite double fronted appearance. It is made all the more beautiful as the roof was replaced about 14 years ago, the walls were repointed and bespoke double glazed sash windows were fitted throughout that perfectly match the character of the building.

    5k Environmentol Protection Report WATER QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS 1992 April 1992 FW P/9 2/ 0 0 1 Author: B Steele Technicol Assistant, Freshwater NRA National Rivers Authority CVM Davies South West Region Environmental Protection Manager HATER QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS 1992 _ . - - TECHNICAL REPORT NO: FWP/92/001 The maps in this report indicate the monitoring locations for the 1992 Regional Water Quality Monitoring Programme which is described separately. The presentation of all monitoring features into these catchment maps will assist in developing an integrated approach to catchment management and operation. The water quality monitoring maps and index were originally incorporated into the Catchment Action Plans. They provide a visual presentation of monitored sites within a catchment and enable water quality data to be accessed easily by all departments and external organisations. The maps bring together information from different sections within Water Quality. The routine river monitoring and tidal water monitoring points, the licensed waste disposal sites and the monitored effluent discharges (pic, non-plc, fish farms, COPA Variation Order [non-plc and pic]) are plotted. The type of discharge is identified such as sewage effluent, dairy factory, etc. Additionally, river impact and control sites are indicated for significant effluent discharges. If the watercourse is not sampled then the location symbol is qualified by (*). Additional details give the type of monitoring undertaken at sites (ie chemical, biological and algological) and whether they are analysed for more specialised substances as required by: a. EC Dangerous Substances Directive b. EC Freshwater Fish Water Quality Directive c. DOE Harmonised Monitoring Scheme d. DOE Red List Reduction Programme c.

  • Penzance and Newlyn (Part 2)
    Penzance and Newlyn (part 2) Responses received during the Cornwall Site Allocations Development Plan Document public consultation – 3 October to 14 November 2016 REP 035 The gurnick estate proposal is not a sensible one in our opinion. Any development at the top of the hill would only increase the problem of access to all amenities. Therefore we foresee the Long Rock area to be ripe for development and to re home the residents from Gwavas who wish to down size. We badly need to protect our few green spaces and to protect our wild life habitats and to guard against noise and air pollution, especially as the infrastructure in Newlyn is sadly lacking any potential for this proposal. Mr W G Hoare & Mrs B A Cobb Objections to Allocations DPD policy PZ-H4 - Trannack 1. Flood risk Photos 1 & 2: Trannack site (PZ-H4) If the land were to be developed in accordance with the application, there would be a serious increase in the risk of flooding. As can be seen from the photographs above, the land slopes very steeply, and is bounded by many mature trees and established hedgerows. All along the southern boundary of the site runs the Chyandour brook, the valley of which is classified as High Flood Risk (category 3) by the Environment Agency, for both river and surface water flooding (see figures 1 and 2 on following page). The Allocations DPD case for PZ-H4 states that “dwellings should be drawn away from the southern extremity of the site along the A30, ensuring that the properties sit outside the flood zone”.
