  • Rural Settlement List 2014
    National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

The route comprises some 27kms of surfaced roads (mostly without verges) and 12kms of ‘green lanes’ of which some have bridleway status, some restricted byway status, and others byway open to all traffic status. The rest of the route is by field-edge and cross- field paths, the latter being occasionally subject to ploughing. You must expect to share all these routes with walkers and cyclists and, in the case of byways, roads and some restricted byways, with motor traffic too. You should also expect some use of routes by farmers with agricultural vehicles. Using bed and breakfast accommodation for horse and rider, the whole ride can be completed over two consecutive days or you could choose to ride shorter sections individually.

  • Back of Cover 3
    Back of Cover 3 0 WHITCHURCH TOWN AND PARISH PLAN WHITCHURCH TOWN AND PARISH PLAN CHAIR’S WELCOME This is the Whitchurch people’s plan for our parish; a community-led plan developed from the ‘Have Your Say’ survey. It is the largest and most detailed survey of local opinion ever undertaken in Whitchurch and follows over two years of consultation and deliberation. The Whitchurch Town and Parish Plan shows what people feel about various aspects of living and working in the community. It provides a solid framework for making the changes that people want for Whitchurch over the coming five to ten years. A great number of people from all sectors of Whitchurch society responded to this community survey. The ball is now rolling; changes are on the way and, with the strength of the Parish Plan leading the process, the changes should reflect what the people of Whitchurch want. I hope that this momentum can be carried forward to ensure that the people of Whitchurch, with the support of our Town and Shropshire Councillors, can build an even better community for the future. I would like to thank all those people involved in the creation of this Plan: the Steering Committee, the people who attended public meetings, the schools, clubs and organisations that allowed us to talk to members, those who talked to us in the street and those who responded to the Survey. WHITCHURCH PARISH BOUNDARY Philip Walker Chair Whitchurch Town and Parish Plan Steering Committee 1 WHITCHURCH TOWN AND PARISH PLAN HOW THE PLAN WAS PREPARED After two public meetings in the autumn of 2008 the Whitchurch Town and Parish Plan Steering Committee of 15 volunteer members was formed in order to develop a Community-led Plan for Whitchurch.

The town has been inhabited since Roman times and is still a thriving market town. This North Shropshire market town has many buildings dating from Medieval ,Tudor and Georgian times. Whitchurch is amongst the oldest continually inhabited towns in the county. Within the town is the wooded Victoria Jubilee Park and picturesque Memorial Garden. Named Mediolanum by the Romans and chosen for its strategic location, Whitchurch soon had legions passing through to reach the outposts of Roman Britain. The town was the heart of the Roman road network, a fact reflected today, and one that makes Whitchurch so central and accessible for visitors. The Whitchurch firm of J B Joyce (tower clock makers) was established in 1690. Whitchurch Heritage Centre hosts information on J B Joyce for visitors. These clocks have an international reputation and can be found on cathedrals and palaces from Singapore to Kabul. Many examples of Joyce’s work can be seen around the town making Whitchurch “the Home of Tower Clocks”. The town is surrounded by beautiful countryside and there are walks along the North Shropshire Canals to Grindley Brook and through the Whitchurch Waterways County Park, also a haven for wildlife and containing Greenfields Nature Reserve managed by The Wildlife Trust.
