C ONTENTS TO J UNE 2017 AIRFIELD REVIEW The Journal of the Airfield Research Group The journal was initially called Airfield Report , then ARG Newsletter, finally becoming Airfield Review in 1985. The number of pages has varied from initially just 6, occasio- nally to up to 60 (a few issues in c.2004). Typically 44, recent journals have been 48. There appear to have been three versions of the ARG index/ table of contents produced for the magazine since its conception. The first was that by David Hall c.1986, which was a very detailed publication and was extensively cross-referenced. For example if an article contained the sentence, ‘The squadron’s flights were temporarily located at Tangmere and Kenley’, then both sites would appear in the index. It also included titles of ‘Books Reviewed’ etc Since then the list has been considerably simplified with only article headings noted. I suspect that to create a current cross-reference list would take around a day per magazine which equates to around eight months work and is clearly impractical. The second version was then created in December 2009 by Richard Flagg with help from Peter Howarth, Bill Taylor, Ray Towler and myself.

  • 5 Cultural Heritage
    Northstowe Phase 1 Chapter 5 ES: Cultural heritage Gallagher 5 Cultural heritage Introduction 5.1 This chapter considers the impacts of the proposed development on the historic environment, including designated and undesignated heritage assets such as archaeological remains, historic buildings and areas and designed landscapes. Legislation and policy 5.2 National and international policy recognises the value and significance of cultural heritage and the public interest in the preservation of particular assets, and sets out mechanisms to ensure that it is taken into account in planning decision making. Sites and features of identified interest are protected by the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979, as amended, and within the planning system by the Town and Country Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. 5.3 National planning policy guidance on the conservation of the historic environment is provided by Planning Policy Statement 5: Planning for the Historic Environment (PPS5), published in March 2010. Guidance on implementation of this policy is provided in the accompanying Planning for the Historic Environment Practice Guide. The objectives of the PPS are to conserve the historic environment for its own intrinsic value and to take account in decision making of its potential instrumental value for place making and contribution to sustainable development. Designated and undesignated heritage assets are distinguished from the wider definition of the historic environment, the majority of which is not covered by protective designation. 5.4 Detailed policies on development management concern the need to clearly define the significance of any potentially affected site or area, the pre- application information requirements, including for archaeological field evaluation, and the principles to be considered in determining any proposal for change potentially affecting heritage assets.
