1 Bursledon, Hamble-Le-Rice 1 BURSLEDON, HAMBLE-LE-RICE AND HOUND LOCAL AREA COMMITTEE Thursday, 26 June 2003 (5:00 pm – 9:25 pm) PRESENT: Councillor Airey (Chair); Councillors Millar, Mrs Craig, Pepper, Wintle, Wright and House Apologies for absence were received from Councillors Mrs Davis ________________________________________ RESOLVED ITEMS (SUBJECT TO QUESTIONS ONLY) 176. DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST Members were invited to declare interests in relation to items of business on the agenda. Any interests declared are recorded in the relevant minute below. 177. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION Councillor Mrs Queen, Chair of Hound Parish Council spoke with regard to the Local Plan Second Deposit and what she felt was a lack of communication between Council departments with regard to local needs. An example given was the traffic problems caused by park and ride schemes. Councillor Mrs Queen also spoke with regard to proposed multiplay equipment at Station Road Recreation Ground. She expressed the view that young people in the area had been waiting for a very long time for this facility. Although she understood delays may have been caused by abuse and anti social behaviour in the area, it was felt that the majority of young people should not be penalised because of the bad behaviour of the minority. The Area Co-ordinator expressed his sympathy with the comments made but advised that although there had been residents agreement a year ago, there was now a new group of residents who were expressing strong objections. With this level of animosity in the area it was felt impossible to build such a facility. The Council would attend Hound Parish Council’s Developer’s . Paul McLeod, Hampshire County Council Youth Worker said he would speak at length at any working group set up but in the meantime expressed the view that it was important that local youth felt they had a voice not just with regard to this matter, but also to encourage their belief in the democratic system. It is only a minority of young people who exhibit anti-social behaviour. 2 Mr Cummings spoke with regard to lack of grass cutting in the Cunningham Gardens area. The Chair agreed that the matter should be passed on to Hampshire County Council. 178. INFORMATION FROM THE CHAIR Due to the very full agenda the Chair deferred this item to the meeting on 24 July 2003. 179.

Old Netley: Bracklesham Beds. Netley Abbey: Bracklesham Beds & Plateau Gravel (Valley Gravel). 5.0 SITE CONTEXT (Map 2) 5.1 Hound is on reasonably flat terrain at about 21m AOD and is almost equidistant from Southampton Water (south) and the River Hamble (east). The principal road through the settlement connects the B3397 to the late C19 / C20 development at Netley which is approximately 0.5km distant. This through road has been realigned during the late C20. Immediately west of the enlarged churchyard is a small area of common land that is now managed as a wildlife reserve. C20 housing estates occupy land to the west and north-west of Hound Common. 5.2 Netley Abbey is a monastic site on the shoreline of Southampton Water. The Abbey stands at c. 19m AOD but the land rises gradually north-eastwards and inland. In the early C19 Netley Abbey was an isolated spot but it is now accompanied by high density housing to the east and south-east. Larger properties can be found to the north and west. 5.3 Old Netley is set out along a stretch of winding lane (Grange Road) that leads south- westwards to Netley Abbey, c. 2km distant. The centre of the settlement is 36.4m AOD and at this point it is cut by the A 3025 to Southampton.

  • Eastleigh Borough Local Plan 2011-2029 Draft October 2011
    Eastleigh Borough Local Plan 2011-2029 Draft October 2011 Foreword Foreword This document is a first draft of the Borough Council’s ideas for a new plan for the borough, looking ahead to 2029. We need this because our existing plan (the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan Review 2001-2011) is now out of date. There have been many changes nationally and locally since it was adopted, and we must have new policies to address these. Preparing a new plan has given the Council a chance to look afresh at what sort of places and facilities we need for our communities now and in the future. To establish what our priorities should be, we have investigated a wide variety of existing and future needs in the borough. From these we have developed a draft plan to help guide development over the next 18 years. The plan is being published for public consultation, and the Borough Council would welcome your views on our draft policies and proposals, and how we should be making provision for the future. We are still at an early stage in the process, and your views can help shape the future of the borough. Full contact details are given in Chapter 1, Introduction.

  • The Scorpion Dinghy – the First Fifty Years
    The Scorpion dinghy – the first fifty years Introduction The Scorpion is a lightweight, high performance, non-trapeze two person racing dinghy. Its adjustable rig enables sailing in nearly all weathers by crews of all weights, ages and experiences. The Scorpion was originally designed for launch and recovery through Cornish surf. It is 14ft long with a hard chine and planing hull and a symmetric spinnaker. It is built to strict class rules whilst rig controls and cockpit layout are left to personal choice. The ability to adjust the rig whilst sailing means that the Scorpion can be raced in most conditions. Its lightweight hull (81kg) gives it good performance and easy handling ashore. The ‘Scorpion’ was designed by Taprell Dorling in 1959. The prototype was launched at Porthpean Sailing Club in St Austell Bay in 1960. Its popularity was immediate and by its 50th anniversary over 2000, mostly wooden ‘Scorpions’, had been built. This is the history of the ‘Scorpion’ over that period. 1 Origins Taprell John Dorling was the proprietor of a small chandlery business, Collins Marine Equipment, which he ran from an office in the house of a friend, a Mr Churchouse in Barnes, West London. He had no intention of building them himself but instead granted licences to existing reputable boat builders, initially to Moores of Wroxham and Aln Boatyard at Alnmouth in Northumberland. In order to maintain standards, Dorling founded the Scorpion Class Association and incorporated into its constitution the requirement that professional boat builders should be licensed to build Scorpions on payment of a designer’s royalty to Taprell.

    Landscape Character Area - Area 15 Area 15: Netley Abbey Coastland Newtown Railway West Wood Netley Abbey Netley S o ut ha V ic mp tor to ia R n W oa at d e r Scale "Imagery copyright Digital Millennium 0 80 160 240 320 400 m Map Partnership 2006" 138 Landscape Character Assessment for Eastleigh Borough Landscape Character Area - Area 15 Description 4.211 This area at the borough boundary between the built-up area of Netley and the edge of Southampton has quite a mixed character but is dominated by its coastal setting, its wooded edges and the ruins and associated earthworks of Netley Abbey. The dense woodland of Westwood lies along the western edge and extends as more open woodland across the southern part of the area. It includes the planted parkland around Netley Castle and abundant tree cover around the large detached houses along Victoria Road. The coastal edge is punctuated by scattered pines giving a coastal heath character similar to that found further east. There are important views from the coastal area across Southampton Water. 4.212 Netley Abbey’s extensive ruins are screened in a wooded hollow with ponds and an aqueduct that extends inland. Open pasture and a triangle of open woodland make the transition to Hound Plain at the northern edge. 4.213 To the southwest of the railway line, which forms part of the northern boundary of the area, is a fairly high, open hill on a former landfill site which offers views across to the city tower blocks of Newtown.

We would like to thank the very many members whose contributions make these reports possible. A recent survey of members found that many people wanted to hear more of the talks which are given during the year, and we are pleased to include reports of four of the very many excellent talks given during the year. Sometimes thought-provoking and challenging, and always interesting, we’d be delighted to see more members at each talk — but if you can’t make it we hope this will become a regular feature of the annual report to give you a flavour of the talk in question. Like many other events, you can find details of future talks on our web-site at sotonnhs.org and don’t forget this is an easy place to complete records of any flora and fauna you may have seen throughout the year. 16 individuals submitted 245 records via the web-site last year and we hope this will become an increasingly important contribution to the work of the society. Why not give it a try yourself? It’s easy.
