North of Robinettes Lane, Cossall
Chapter 10 - Proposed potential housing and/or employment development sites CHAPTER 10 – Proposed Potential Housing and Employment Sites AC(b) NORTH OF ROBINETTES LANE, COSSALL Objection 1185 2780 Simms & Co Shoosmiths Solicitors Summary of Objection Issues 1185/2780: Simms & Co 1. The site at Oakwood Grange/Mabey Depot, Robinettes Lane, Cossall should be included for housing because: (i) It is a brownfield site consistent with Government Policy. (ii) It would improve the living environment of adjoining residents. (iii) It would accord with the aims and objectives of the plan for housing. (iv) It would improve the local environment. (v) It would reduce HGV use of narrow roads through Cossall. Council’s Response: 2. Site Details Site area: 5.5 hectares (13.5 acres) Location: The site is situated approximately 300m east of Cossall village, a rural village clustered around a narrow road. It also lies adjacent to the Cossall Conservation area (see attached map for location). The site was originally part of Cossall colliery which closed in the 1950s. Current use: An enclave of development occupying industrial uses, some residential and open land (part used for dumping manure). The site is part greenfield, part previously developed land. Ecological value: No designated wildlife sites exist on the site although part of the site is in a Mature Landscape Area. However it is proposed that this part is deleted from the MLA designation in this Local Plan Review. Green Belt: The site is situated in the Green Belt and isolated from any built-up area. Public transport: There are no frequent bus services within walking distance, or 400m. -
Interesting to Know November 2020
November 2020 Chaplains visit people in their place of work to offer friendship and to listen. Their support is unconditional, non-judgemental, independent and confidential. Interesting to Know.......... The man who revolutionised public transport in Nottingham is to retire. Mark Fowels joined Nottingham City Transport in 1994 and took over as MD in 2001 and following a successful bid, also assumed the role of the Chairman of the Arrow Consortium which re-introduced trams to Nottingham in 2004. Flexible workspace provider Cuba has opened a second venue in Nottingham. The latest is on King Street providing office space, co-working space with hot desks, designated desks, meeting rooms and an in-house barista over four floors. Work to maintain and enhance the look of Trent Bridge – one of the key gateways to the city – has been completed. Nottingham’s Business Improvement District has secured a new five year term. It has received backing from the businesses of the city to continue its work over the next five years from 2021-2025. More city centre living opportunities. Part of the conference facilities of the St James Hotel in the city centre are to be converted into 14 apartments. Vertu Motors has added to its portfolio in Nottingham with the acquisition of the Kia Nottingham dealership in Old Basford from Sandicliffe. The transaction will bring the number of outlets operated by the Group in Nottingham to nine. The new Broadmarsh Car Park development is on course to open in the spring or summer next year. Last month BioCity, the pioneering life science incubator and business collective, supported by education charity Ignite! brought together ninety students from five local secondary schools, to celebrate the legacy of the celebrated Nottingham mathematician, Ada Lovelace, to inspire young women into STEM careers. -
Contents Early Newsletters Revisited. the Rutland Ground a Trip To
Contents Early Newsletters revisited. The Rutland Ground A Trip to Matlock Visit to Nottingham University On Our Doorstep Old Ilkeston (East) and Cossall November/December 2009 No1 Early newsletters revisited by Danny Corns. I thought it may be interesting for newcomers to the Society to see articles published in the early newsletters and for the “old timers” of the Society to take a trip down memory lane. Below is the first newsletter from March 1969 and I thought it worthwhile to publish it in its entirety. As we proceed I shall extract articles from other newsletters for re-printing. THE ILKESTON & DISTRICT LOCAL HISTORY SOCIETY’S NEWS-LETTER No.1 March 1969 At the close of this the Society’s third winter season of lecture meetings it has been decided that a monthly newsletter should be instituted to keep members in closer touch with the activities of the Society and to offer a forum for the discussion and exchange of views and information. Members are invited to support it by sending any comments and contributions to the editor, whose address appears at the foot of page 2. Report- Snowbound as we were on Thursday 20 February, Mr. Alan McCormick was unable to speak to the Society about his work as Assistant Curator of the Nottingham Castle Museum as arranged. Instead a small but dedicated audience heard Malcolm Burrows introduce the series of booklets produced by the Standing Conference for Local History, publishers of the quarterly Local Historian (previously The Amateur Historian) at 15s per annum or 3/6d each issue. -

This strategic plan is being prepared by Broxtowe Borough Council, Gedling Borough Council, Nottingham City Council and Rushcliffe Borough Council. It will also inform the Erewash Local Plan which is being progressed separately.

Volume 4: Spring Walks
1 Introduction Welcome to our fourth volume of ‘100 Walks from the Poppy and Pint’. This volume contains Spring Walks for you to enjoy now that the lockdown has eased. I hope that you find it useful. You will find 49 walks in this volume bringing the total number of walks in the series to 150! This volume is quite different to the other volumes. These walks have been specially selected from a wider radius of Lady Bay. This gives us more choice, more variety, and the chance to showcase different areas. Most of the walks start within 30 minutes’ drive from the Poppy and Pint and most are relatively short walks of around two to three hours. All have been chosen because they hold one or more points of interest. Moreover, the paths are quiet, they are varied, and all are on good, waymarked paths. This makes them ideal spring walks just after the lockdown. Being out on the trail in the open air anywhere lifts the spirits, is good for the soul, and gives our lives a different perspective. I think we always feel better when we come back from a walk! Do try it and see! This is the fourth volume of walks to complement Volumes One, Two and Three. Unfortunately, it is not possible to put these four volumes into one tome as the subsequent size of the file would be too big to e mail! When I set myself the challenge of researching and creating 100 local walks, I never actually thought it was possible. -

Report to Planning and Licensing Committee REPORT OF
Report to Planning and Licensing Committee 10 December 2013 Agenda Item: REPORT OF CORPORATE DIRECTOR POLICY, PLA NNING AND CORPORATE SERVICES BROXTOWE DISTRICT REF. NO.: 5/13/00590/CCM PROPOSAL: EXTRACTION OF COAL AND FIRECLAY BY SURFACE MINING METHODS WITH RESTORATION TO AGRICULTURE, WOODLAND, NATURE CONSERVATION AND PUBLIC AMENITY LOCATION: LAND OFF COSSALL ROAD BETWEEN THE VILLAGES OF COSSALL AND TROWELL, REFERRED TO AS THE SHORTWOOD SITE APPLICANT: UK COAL SURFACE MINES LIMITED Purpose of Report 1. To consider a planning application for the extraction of an estimated 1.275 million tonnes of coal and 250,000 tonnes of fireclay by opencast extraction methods from land know as ‘Shortwood’ between Cossall and Trowell, and the restoration of the site to agriculture, woodland, nature conservation and public amenity. The key issues relate to landscape and visual impact, the impact on the setting of Cossall Conservation Area, HGV traffic, noise, dust, health impacts, the impact on the Green Belt and countryside, the impacts on rights of way, and the restoration of the site including its deliverability. 2. A small section of the application site, extending to approximately five hectares, is within Cossall Mature Landscape Area (MLA) and MLAs are identified in the adopted Nottinghamshire Minerals Local Plan (MLP) as opencast coal constraint areas and are protected from opencast coal extraction in Policy M12.7 of the MLP. Accordingly the application has been treated as a ‘departure’ from the Development Plan. The recommendation is to grant planning permission subject to conditions and a legal agreement. Background to this application 3. Members of Planning and Licensing Committee will be aware that an almost identical planning application to the one under consideration in this report was submitted to the County Council in February 2012. -
