INTRODUCTION 1.1 Lower Allithwaite Parish Council decided to prepare a Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP) for Lower Allithwaite in October 2014 and applied to South Lakeland District Council for designation as a neighbourhood area on 15th October 2014. The application for designation was approved by the District Council on 5th February 2015. The designated Neighbourhood Area is the same as the Parish Council Boundary and is shown on Map 1. This includes the villages of Lower Allithwaite, Cartmel and outlying areas. Map 1: Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Plan Boundary 1.2 Background The Lower Allithwaite NDP has been prepared taking into consideration extensive community engagement and involvement through the Lower Allithwaite Community Plan (June 2013) and the Cartmel Township Initiative, the Allithwaite Community Orchard consultation and the Allithwaite P4C Bid consultation. 4 Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Development Plan Pre-Submission Draft 2018-2026 A steering group comprising Parish Councillors and local residents was established to progress work on the plan, members: Chair - Cllr Chris Naylor - Cllr Mary Wilson - Cllr Mary Bird - Cllr Caroline Johnson Consultations took place in the Community Centre Allithwaite on the 13th and 19th July 2016, the results of the questionnaires are contained in Appendix 6. 1.2 Planning Policy Context This plan has been developed with regard to National and Local policies. 1.2.1 National planning policy is set out in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) published in July 2018. This sets out in paragraphs 6 and 7 that the purpose of the planning system is to contribute to the achievement of sustainable development, and that the planning system has to perform an economic role, a social role and an environmental role. 1.2.2 South Lakeland District Council Core strategy, but as part of the Local Plan review, is currently being reviewed and has also been considered. The South Lakeland adopted Core Strategy (2010) sets out an overall vision of how the district and places within it should evolve, strategic objectives for the area, focusing on key issues, a strategy for the delivery of these objectives, and an explanation of how the delivery process will be monitored. 1.2.3 A full list of relevant policies is included at Appendix 1 and 2. Policies will be applied where relevant to the proposal under consideration, recognising that not all policies will need to be applied or complied with. 1.3 Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Development Plan Vision and Objectives 1.3.1 By 2026 Lower Allithwaite Parish, due to significant change, will include two very different villages and a number of small rural settlements scattered throughout the countryside. The quality of the landscape has been protected from intrusive developments. 5 Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Development Plan Pre-Submission Draft 2018-2026 1.3.2 In Allithwaite the village will be enhanced by a number of developments which are well integrated, linked directly to the village with pedestrian circulation having been significantly enhanced. Traffic management has resulted in a quieter, safer village. 1.3.3 In Cartmel, the heritage aspects of the village have been enhanced, protected and reflected in the wider village area. Traffic and parking management schemes have improved access to the many businesses; and residents and visitors benefit from improved circulation. 1.4 Neighbourhood Plan Aims and Objectives 1.4.1 These are taken from the Lower Allithwaite Community Plan completed and adopted in 2013. 1.4.2 For the vision of the Neighbourhood Plan to be realised, planning decisions need to reflect its objectives. Consultation and engagement with local residents demonstrated that there were also other matters of importance to them, which need to be addressed as part of realising the vision. These are set out in the following 12 community objectives. Table 1: Aims and Objectives Aims Objectives 1 To protect the built environment both in the villages and in the wider countryside and raise awareness of Cartmel’s Conservation Area. 2 To protect locally significant green spaces within the villages and in the surrounding countryside from inappropriate development. 3 To protect and enhance the locally, nationally and internationally recognised natural environments 4 To protect and enhance existing levels of access to the local countryside 5 To promote safer use of the wider road network, to ensure safer pedestrian and cycle access within the Parish, improve and enhance the cycle network, and improve disabled access to the footpath network. 6 To ensure housing stock meets local affordable needs and enables people of all ages to continue to resident within the local area. 7 Ensure new housing developments are small scale, less than 10/15 houses, and meet the aspirations of low density (as outlined in NPPF) and appropriate design. 8 To ensure the proportion of permanent dwellings to holiday homes remains at a level that supports a sustainable local community. 9 Caravan and Chalet parks are well contained in the landscape and remain proportional to the size of the residential villages and hamlets 10 A range of local businesses thrive and are well supported by broad band connections 11 The tourist economy grows in a way which supports and enhances the environment and does not adversely impact on traffic and parking issues. 12 Community facilities support and enhance the wellbeing of residents of all ages. 6 Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Development Plan Pre-Submission Draft 2018-2026 1.5 Lower Allithwaite Parish 1.5.1 Lower Allithwaite is a Civil Parish in the South Lakeland District of the county of Cumbria. 1.5.2 It is bounded to the north by the Lake District National Park and the Morecambe Bay Ramsar area to the South. Morecambe Bay Special Area of Conservation (SAC / Special Protection Area (SPA) and Ramsar sites are wetland sites of international importance designated under the Ramsar convention. 1.5.3 It includes two villages and a number of small hamlets and scattered farmsteads. There are also a number of caravan and chalet parks which, in addition to the growing number of second homes and holiday lets, significantly increase the population of the area for virtually the whole year. 1.5.4 In Allithwaite, archaeological evidence shows that the area has been settled since the Bronze age but the village has only developed since the mid C19 when the then owners of Boarbank Hall built the Church and school and provided a focus for the existing scattered farmsteads. 1.5.5 The village is sited on higher ground with magnificent views in all directions. To the south and west is the coastal plain and Humphrey Head which is a SSSI limestone Ridge stretching out towards the important Ramsar site of Morecambe Bay. To the north views are towards the Lake District Fells. The village is sheltered from the east by the limestone ridge of Wartbarrow also a SSSI. 1.5.6 Allithwaite has a wide range of well supported community facilities including a primary school with nursery, children’s playground, community orchard and meadow, allotments, a community centre and playing field, church, post office and shop, charity shop and pub. 1.5.7 Its main problem is that it is divided by the B5277 road and there are many gaps in the footpath network which deter people from walking confidently around the village. 1.5.8 Cartmel nestles in the valley of the river Eea where the village has grown around the medieval grade 1 listed Priory church.

  • Folk Song in Cumbria: a Distinctive Regional
    FOLK SONG IN CUMBRIA: A DISTINCTIVE REGIONAL REPERTOIRE? A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Susan Margaret Allan, MA (Lancaster), BEd (London) University of Lancaster, November 2016 ABSTRACT One of the lacunae of traditional music scholarship in England has been the lack of systematic study of folk song and its performance in discrete geographical areas. This thesis endeavours to address this gap in knowledge for one region through a study of Cumbrian folk song and its performance over the past two hundred years. Although primarily a social history of popular culture, with some elements of ethnography and a little musicology, it is also a participant-observer study from the personal perspective of one who has performed and collected Cumbrian folk songs for some forty years. The principal task has been to research and present the folk songs known to have been published or performed in Cumbria since circa 1900, designated as the Cumbrian Folk Song Corpus: a body of 515 songs from 1010 different sources, including manuscripts, print, recordings and broadcasts. The thesis begins with the history of the best-known Cumbrian folk song, ‘D’Ye Ken John Peel’ from its date of composition around 1830 through to the late twentieth century. From this narrative the main themes of the thesis are drawn out: the problem of defining ‘folk song’, given its eclectic nature; the role of the various collectors, mediators and performers of folk songs over the years, including myself; the range of different contexts in which the songs have been performed, and by whom; the vexed questions of ‘authenticity’ and ‘invented tradition’, and the extent to which this repertoire is a distinctive regional one.

    TWO VALLEYS PARISH NEWS www.crosthwaiteandlyth.co.uk/twovalleys Serving the parishes of Cartmel Fell, Crook, Crosthwaite, Helsington, Underbarrow, Winster, & Witherslack April 2018 70p Holme Crag Garden Party INTRIGUINGLY beautiful gardens which took over 30 years to nurture from rock and rugged land are open on Sunday, May 20th in Witherslack. Featured in Tim Longville’s acclaimed “Gardens of the Lake District”, Holme Crag is opening its gates as a fund-raiser for St. Paul’s Parish Church. Appearing on television, loved my many who have visited the magical place, the garden is testimony to the late Jack Watson’s vision of ‘merely cultivating ecology’. A magnet for birds, wild animals and insects, this where a lovely, untamed landscape meets decades of graft, and Jack's passion for planting, to create a unique and beguiling spectacle. By late spring, pond-side astilbes and hostas may be pushing through, rhododendrons still flowering and Holme Crag’s Candelabra primulas in their first ascent. Many of the plants and trees were established to encourage wildlife and the garden is noted for a rich variety of birds. Please join us for cream teas, raffles, plants, cakes, white elephant, a selection of stalls and, of course, the garden exploration. Running from 2 to 5pm, entrance is £3, children free. Please follow parking guidelines.

  • Jubilee Digest Briefing Note for Cartmel and Furness
    Furness Peninsula Department of History, Lancaster University Victoria County History: Cumbria Project ‘Jubilee Digests’ Briefing Note for Furness Peninsula In celebration of the Diamond Jubilee in 2012, the Queen has decided to re-dedicate the VCH. To mark this occasion, we aim to have produced a set of historical data for every community in Cumbria by the end of 2012. These summaries, which we are calling ‘Jubilee Digests’, will be posted on the Cumbria County History Trust’s website where they will form an important resource as a quick reference guide for all interested in the county’s history. We hope that all VCH volunteers will wish to get involved and to contribute to this. What we need volunteers to do is gather a set of historical facts for each of the places for which separate VCH articles will eventually be written: that’s around 315 parishes/townships in Cumberland and Westmorland, a further 30 in Furness and Cartmel, together with three more for Sedbergh, Garsdale and Dent. The data included in the digests, which will be essential to writing future VCH parish/township articles, will be gathered from a limited set of specified sources. In this way, the Digests will build on the substantial progress volunteers have already made during 2011 in gathering specific information about institutions in parishes and townships throughout Cumberland and Westmorland. As with all VCH work, high standards of accuracy and systematic research are vital. Each ‘Jubilee Digest’ will contain the following and will cover a community’s history from the earliest times to the present day: Name of place: status (i.e.

  • A History of Kents Bank
    A History of Kents Bank. Kents Bank lies to the west of Grange over Sands and until the middle of the 19th century it comprised a few buildings on the shore where the cross bay route across Morecambe Bay met the land. Abbot Hall and Kents Bank House, then known as Kents Bank Hotel which was operating as a lodging house, stood on opposite sides of the road at the base of the hill now known as Kirkhead Road. A railway station had opened in August 1857 on the "Ulverstone to Lancaster" railway running along the edge of the shore. Part way up the hill on Kirkhead Road was Laneside Farm. Further along the coast, towards Grange, Guides Farm sat on the shore at the bottom of the road now known as Carter Road. Seawood House was above Guide Farm at the top of the steep hill with access from Carter Road. The two roads climbed northwards up the hill to join the main road linking Grange with Flookburgh. Kentsford Road, the connecting road between Kirkhead Road and Carter Road, did not exist. The land between Kirkhead Road, Carter Road and Allithwaite Road was farmland. Mary Lambert – Landowner. Mary Winfield Lambert owned all the land and buildings around Kirkhead Road including Laneside Farm which was the base for the agricultural operations on the land in Kents Bank. On her death in 1857 Mary Winfield Lambert lived at Boarbank House, Allithwaite. Miss Lambert’s estate stretching from Boarbank Hall in Allithwaite to Abbot Hall in Kents Bank was sold by auction in August 1858 to ‘capitalists from Manchester, Bury and Whitehaven’ (Westmorland Gazette Aug 28 1858).
