The location of the site is approximately 2m miles from the main A55 link way and benefits from easy connections to other areas of the North West. A55 2Miles Site Location Site Access Mold 3 Miles Chester 10 Miles Locality Map Site Location Plan Land Adjacent to Alltami Road, Buckley, Flintshire, CH7 3PF 3.0 THE SITE AND CONTEXT 3.1 The site is visible from Alltami Road, and the frontage is currently protected by temporary Harris fencing in the absence of any permanent boundary treatment. There is also an existing pedestrian footpath fronting the site which would be subject to Section 278 Works including construction of new drop kerb / transition and any associated reinstatement to provide access for vehicles entering the site curtilage. 3.2 The existing site is unoccupied scrubland bridged between neighbouring dwellings to the North, East and West. The curtilage is screened by established boundary treatments consisting of close boarded fencing, hedgerows and brick walls. 3.3 The width of the site at the front of Alltami Road is measures approximately 15m extending to 21.5m to the rear. The length of the site is 68m generating an overall curtilage area of 1320m2. The site is generally considered to be flat. Image 1 Image 2 The Site Image 3 Image 4 Image 5 Image 6 Land Adjacent to Alltami Road, Buckley, Flintshire, CH7 3PF 3.0 THE SITE AND CONTEXT 3.4 Alltami Road is predominantly a residential area offering a variety of character properties/ types and scales. Generally, all properties in the vicinity utilize traditional brickwork and render as the two key materials coupled with slate and tiled roofs. There are also examples of larger new build developments which are unified in their design and scale. 3.5 Planning Consent was granted in 2020 on the site to erect x2 four bed detached dwellings and Garages under application 058818. Both house types match up in style and scale. Neighbouring Dwelling- The Orchard Example of New Building Development off Alltami Road Site Plan as Approved under Application 058818 Adjacent Buildings Adjacent Buildings Principal Elevation as Approved Application 058818 Land Adjacent to Alltami Road, Buckley, Flintshire, CH7 3PF 4.0 CHARACTER AND DESIGN 4.1 LAYOUT 4.2 The proposed dwelling has been designed to satisfy the constraints of the site and immediate surroundings and make efficient use of the available land. The proposed footprint is set back to provide visual relief from the main street scene. In addition, the proposed double Garage will be sited towards the front of the site in line neighbouring properties ‘the Orchard’ and ‘Ash Cottage’. The Garage will partially flank the principal elevation of the dwelling to serve as permanent screening from Alltami Road. 4.3 The garden area to the rear will provide a secure and private amenity space up to 480m2, which also includes provisions for a future summer house incidental to the main dwelling. At this stage it is intended the summer house would be designed in accordance with the Technical Guidelines of permitted development however, any variation would be subject to a separate planning application. 4.4 The layout of the proposed dwelling has been designed to take advantage of the South Facing aspect. The open plan nature of the layout coupled with dual aspect openings at ground floor level will create a pleasant living environment benefitting from controlled levels of natural and borrowed light throughout the day. All rooms and spaces are proportionally sized to reflect the size of the dwelling. 4.5 Bedrooms at first floor level will offer roof accommodation with vaulted ceilings to enhance the vertical emphasis of the rooms. High Level roof lights will be installed above Bedrooms and Bathrooms to filter light and provide purge ventilation for cooling in the summer months. 4.6 OUTLOOK ASSESSMENT 4.7 The orientation and outlook of the building will respect the immediate properties and amenities in accordance with Flintshire’s SPGN No.2 Guidance for spaces around dwellings. To summarize; Habitable to Habitable Rooms will maintain minimum 22mm separation or 12m from habitable wall to a flank wall High level rooflights to the East and West Elevations in lieu of window openings to maintain privacy between neighbouring dwellings. Garden and driveway exceed the standards outlined in Figure 4 of the Technical guidance. Relaxed maneuvering within the curtilage in accordance with Figure 5. LINEAR SECTION SITE PLAN ANALYSIS Land Adjacent to Alltami Road, Buckley, Flintshire, CH7 3PF 4.0 CHARACTER AND DESIGN 4.8 SCALE AND CONCEPT 4.9 The scale of the proposed dwelling is suited to the site and mimics the height of the dwellings approved under application 058818. Furthermore, the geometry and form of the roof has been carefully considered to respect the neighbouring dwellings. Roof gables spanning perpendicular to neighbouring boundaries have been avoided in favour of gables spanning parallel. This approach naturally reduces the massing of the dwelling and ensures there is no adverse visual impact. 4.10 The proposed dwelling will be in keeping with the local vernacular, whilst offering some subtle individuality and architectural features. The principal elevation is made of three distinct bays which are asymmetrical in form. The gable ends fronting the South Facing Bedrooms will include apex windows to create visual interest from inside and outside the building. The patio door systems at ground floor will extend up to ceiling level to exaggerate the openings and create a more harmonious link with the outside space. 4.11 LANDSCAPING 4.12 The site will include a combination of intervening landscaping to soften the development which will be subject to a detailed Landscape Design following Planning Consent. Land Adjacent to Alltami Road, Buckley, Flintshire, CH7 3PF 4.0 CHARACTER AND DESIGN 4.13 CHARACTER 4.14 The development will include robust, quality materials which will be sympathetic and reflect the traditional typology of the local area. These include; Facing brick – to emulate the prominent material UPVC windows and door casement in Black Grey Concrete tiled roof with universal ridge and hip tiles Black UPVC Fascia, Soffits and Rainwater Goods (fade resistant) Hardwood Oak to the principal entrance 4.15 The proposals have been developed and selected following an analysis of the surrounding houses and materials. Houses in the area are predominantly composed of brick facades, render or a combination of the two. Provisions for render have been omitted from this proposal due to long term maintenance issues. 4.16 There will be a variety of corbelled brick features to complement the design including continuous horizontal banding between floor levels and below window cills. The final pallet of materials/types and profiles will be subject to agreement and form part of the Planning Conditions UPVC WINDOWS/DOORS CONCRETE TILE ROOF APRONS FACING BRICK OAK PANELLED DOOR AND SIDE LIGHT 5.0 ACCESS AND MOVEMENT Land Adjacent to Alltami Road, Buckley, Flintshire, CH7 3PF 5.1 SITE ACCESS 5.2 The access will be formed to provide unobstructed visibility in both directions extending up to 43m from the edge of the highway and 2.4m into the site. 5.3 A low-level Brick boundary wall will be constructed 5m back from the Highway and include electronic security gates. This will permit any holding vehicles to clear the Highway before accessing the site. 5.4 The site has been arranged to provide an inclusive environment including a courtyard area which will enable vehicle maneuvering. In addition, this has been generously sized to provide parking for up to four vehicles excluding the proposed Garage to satisfy SPGN-No-11 of Flintshire’s Supplementary Planning Guidance. 5.5 All external surfaces on the site will have minimum undulation and be non-slip.

    CYNGOR CYMUNED TREUDDYN COMMUNITY COUNCIL Minutes of the Meeting held Wednesday 12th June, 2019 at the Meeting Room, Village Hall, Queen St. Treuddyn for 7.00pm 1. CHAIRMAN : Cllr. Mr R. Cracknell 2. PRESENT : Cllrs. Ms. B. Milne (Vice-Chair) Mrs C. Hughes, Mrs C. Thomas, Mrs A. Thomas, B. Jones, I. Roberts, Mrs G. Short & C. Swan. 3. APOLOGIES : Cllr. J. Smith 4. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC Two present. Sunspot Junction Treuddyn Travelling along Ffordd y Rhos to meet the Junction onto the A5104. Many accidents have occurred near this Junction, sadly a serious collision occurred on the 10.06.2019. A resident spoke of his concern that the new 40mph signs have been positioned very close behind the ‘Give Way’ sign. He also spoke about the speed of traffic along Ffordd y Rhos and the worry that some drivers are not stopping at the Junction, there should be a ‘Halt’ sign at this Junction. County Cllr. Mrs C. Thomas was advised by highway officers that the signs were put in place within Highway legislation, she had also discussed with FCC highway technical officers of changing the give way sign to a stop sign but was told that permission is needed from Welsh Government to do this. It has been discussed to look at changing the Junction. To apply to the Welsh Government for a ‘Stop’ order, another traffic order would be required to move the 40mph signs down, 20mtrs at the most. Possibly altering the Junction so it is one way, a no through road end or angled to the left, this would cause traffic to have to stop.

  • Community Infrastructure 13
    Background Paper 13: Community Infrastructure 13 February Gwynedd & Môn Joint Local Development Plan 2015 [Type text] Topic Paper 13: Infrastructure Background This is one of a range of topic papers prepared to offer more detailed information and explain the approach of the Plan to different topics and issues affecting the Joint Local Development Plan Area. This paper will look specifically at community infrastructure. It will explain the background which will help to identify the issues, objectives and options for the Deposit Plan. The Deposit Plan is the second statutory stage in the preparation of the Joint Local Development Plan (JLDP). The JLDP shapes the future growth of communities in the Joint Local Development Plan Area and will set out the policies and land allocations against which planning applications will be assessed. The Deposit Plan will be submitted to the Welsh Government, which will appoint an independent inspector to assess the soundness of the Plan in the Examination in Public. If the inspector considers the Plan to be sound it will be recommended for adoption. When adopted the JLDP will supersede the Gwynedd Unitary Development Plan (2009) for the Gwynedd Local Planning Authority Area and the Gwynedd Structure Plan (1993) and Ynys Môn Local Plan (1996) for the Ynys Môn Local Planning Authority. This topic paper can be read in isolation or in conjunction with the other Topic Papers and Background Papers that have been prepared to give a full picture the Joint Local Development Plan Area. You may refer to the Topic Paper as a basis for making comments about the Deposit Plan.
