  • North Devon & Torridge Joint Local Plan Examination
    November 2016 North Devon & Torridge Joint Local Plan Examination Hearing Statement on behalf of Chichester Homes Developments Ltd Matter 6: Town Strategies (Braunton) Pre-hearing statement on behalf of Chichester Homes Developments Ltd - Matter 6 (Braunton) 1.0 Introduction 1.1 This hearing statement is submitted on behalf of Chichester Homes Developments Ltd. Chichester Homes Developments Ltd has submitted duly made representations in response to various consultation stages of the draft Plan and welcomes the opportunity to participate in the examination hearings. 1.2 Those representations contained objections to the proposed housing requirement of the Plan, the scale of development directed towards Braunton in comparison to other settlements and the non-allocation of land east of South Park, Braunton, in which Chichester Homes Developments Ltd has an interest. 2.0 Proposed strategy for Braunton 2.1 In particular, those representations argued that the proposed distribution of housing between settlements is unjustified. Other Main Centres, such as South Molton, Northam, Ilfracombe and Great Torrington and Holsworthy are proposed to have significantly higher apportionments of the overall housing requirement than Braunton. 2.2 The proposed housing apportionment for Braunton/Wrafton does not reflect its role and function relative to other Main Centres. Paragraph 10.147 of the Plan states that Braunton is “one of the larger settlements in northern Devon and is an important local service centre providing a range of retail, education, health and community facilities and employment opportunities”. Paragraph 10.148 goes on to state that its population has increased by less than 4% between 2001-10, lower than rates of growth elsewhere in north Devon.

  • Ilfracombe & Lee
    North Devon Coast Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty Wreckers, Railways and Rockpools A self-guided, circular, 8 mile walk around Ilfracombe and Lee Bay North Devon Coast Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty Created by the North Devon Coast AONB team with the help of Claire Moodie and journalist Martin Hesp Contents Introduction 3 Practical Information 4 Route Map 5 The Walk 6 Cover photo © Neville Stanikk 2 Wreckers, Railways and Rockpools Special Qualities of an Outstanding Landscape From the edge of Exmoor to the border of Cornwall, The North Devon Coast is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) stretching over 171sq kms. This recognises the very special landscape, habitats, wildlife and heritage of this area and ensures that North Devon will remain as beautiful and special for future generations to enjoy, as it is for us today. North Devon was designated as an ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’ (AONB) in 1960 because it “possessed some of the finest coastal scenery in the country”. This is particularly evident in the landscape experienced on this walk which includes dramatic and breath-taking seascapes. The walk is located in the ‘North Lee Bay ©Neville Stanikk Devon High Coast’ landscape character area, with some stunning views westwards towards Bull Point and Lundy Island, and eastwards towards Exmoor National Park. The coastline is a mixture of high cliff downland with coastal grasslands and the distinct wooded Borough Valley running down to the coast. The geology is primarily of Ilfracombe and Mortehoe slates, which is reflected in the architecture of the distinct field boundaries and the older buildings in the village of Lee.
