  • Holy Trinity Annual Report
    HOLY TRINITY Potten End The Church at the Heart of the Village ANNUAL REPORT Year ending 31st December 2019 UPDATE FROM THE VICAR Dear members of Holy Trinity, This annual report and upcoming APCM is a strange one. Due to legal requirements, our annual report must sit alongside our financial statement (which can be viewed on our website) which cover the year of 2019. This invariably means that the report is usually at least a couple of months ‘out of date’ when the Annual Parochial Church Meeting traditionally comes round in the spring. However, in the light of the Covid-19 pandemic, with the closure of churches then gradual re-opening, this meant that APCMs haven’t been able to happen until now. It is our legal duty to have this meeting but it is going to feel strange that we will be closer to 2021 and to next years APCM, than we are to 2019! And yet we are where we are, so therefore here in this document is the agenda, past minutes, reports and financial review in readiness for our APCM on Sunday 18th October at 11.45am in church and via Zoom. We hope that you are able to attend the meeting either in person or online (Zoom details below) but if not please send us your apologies (email [email protected]) or any questions/comments that you would like to raise. With regard to the conduct of the meeting, in order to make it go as smooth as possible (especially as we’re trying something new with also having it ‘virtual’) we will be taking the report as read and inviting any comments or questions that you may have.

  • Nettleden with Potten End Parish Council Comments on the Dacorum Local Plan 2020 – 2038 Emerging Strategy for Growth
    Nettleden with Potten End Parish Council www.nettledenpottenendpc.org.uk T: 01442 781124 E: [email protected] Nettleden with Potten End Parish Council Comments on the Dacorum Local Plan 2020 – 2038 Emerging Strategy for Growth Response to Dacorum Borough Council’s Regulation 18 Consultation, December 2020 – 28th February 2021 Agreed by the Council 18th February 2021 1. Do you think the overarching vision and the strategic objectives are right for the Borough? (pp3 – 26) No 1.1. The consultation process We appreciate the fact that the consultation period was extended, although this should have been agreed at the outset rather than imposing a significant workload during a national lockdown and over the Christmas holidays which self-evidently were always going to make it extremely difficult both to give the plan the attention it deserved and to undertake adequate public consultation. However we are still extremely concerned that the consultation has proceeded given that: • shortly after publication the Government changed its guidance on the level of housing growth required by the Borough, a key driver of the plan, and it now appears that the Borough is adopting a housing growth figure which is not consistent with the Government’s express intent to protect Green Belt land. • it is very difficult to understand how the majority of the proposed major developments can be described as “sustainable” given their distance from existing infrastructure. • neither the Infrastructure Development Plan not the Transport Plan are complete and under the current process it will not be possible to comment in any meaningful way on the Plan without the benefit of these significant elements.

  • Urban Nature Conservation Study
    DACORUM BOROUGH COUNCIL URBAN NATURE CONSERVATION STUDY Hertfordshire Biological Records Centre March 2006 DACORUM BOROUGH COUNCIL URBAN NATURE CONSERVATION STUDY Hertfordshire Biological Records Centre March 2006 SUMMARY Purpose of study The environment is one of the four main drivers of sustainable development, and in this context biodiversity needs to be fully integrated into planning policy and delivery. As part of the new planning system known as the Local Development Framework, information on urban wildlife is fundamental given the pressure on land resources in and around our towns. The aims of the study are: ‘To provide a well reasoned and coherent strategy for the protection and enhancement of key wildlife areas and network of spaces / natural corridors within the towns and large villages of Dacorum’. The Dacorum Urban Nature Conservation Study considers the wildlife resources within the six major settlements in Dacorum, namely Berkhamsted, Bovingdon, Hemel Hempstead, Kings Langley, Markyate and Tring. They were mapped using existing habitat information, additional sites identified from aerial photo interpretation and local knowledge. The areas adjacent to each settlement – up to a distance of 1km – were also mapped in a similar fashion to place the urban areas within the context of their surrounding environments. This process identified the most important sites already known such as Sites of Special Scientific Interest, local sites meeting minimum standards known as ‘Wildlife Sites’, and other sites or features of more local significance within the urban areas known collectively as ‘Wildspace’. These incorporated Hertfordshire Biological Record Centre’s ‘Ecology Sites’ where appropriate, old boundary features such as hedgerows and tree lines, as well as significant garden areas or open spaces which may survive.

Over that time, we have reduced the number of historic sites which have been at risk from destruction or demolition in many parts of the East of England region.The first category of assets which we focused on were Buildings at Risk. In our region, which has suffered the vicissitudes of industrial slumps and changing demographics alongside periods of rapid economic growth, this has led to a number of important buildings facing serious threats. Some of these are redundant farm buildings, mills and industrial structures, others are anything from private houses to ornamental follies. With the expansion of the Buildings at Risk Register and developers to proceed with some building projects, to a Heritage at Risk Register we have undertaken an with the reduced availability of funding.

  • Spatial Strategy for the Countryside
    Spatial Strategy for the Countryside June 2009 159 1.0 Countryside Spatial Strategy 1.1 Characteristics 1.2 Siting & size The countryside of Dacorum covers 178 sq kilometres and has a population of 13,265 in 5,128 households (2001 Census). 86% live in villages and hamlets, with the remainder dispersed. Nearly half live in the seven largest villages. 1.3 Landscape character Most of Dacorum lies within the Chiltern Hills, part being designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The most distinctive landscape feature is the heavily wooded Chilterns chalk escarpment and its outlier. Although it is heavily wooded, there are important areas of chalk downland e.g. at Aldbury Nowers. The majority of the Borough lies on the dip slope which is cut by the chalk streams of the Ver, Gade and Bulbourne which run in a north-west to south-east direction. Dry valleys and winterbournes further divide the area to create a varied mix of landscapes: the Bourne Gutter being the most notable. The dip slope is so gentle in places that it generally has the character of a plateau. Heavy clay soils with flints overlie the chalk. 1.4 The dominant feature is the beechwoods of Ashridge and Northchurch, Aldbury and Berkhamsted Commons. The Chilterns Beechwoods1 are a Special Area of Conservation. Hanging beechwoods on upper slopes of valley sides are especially characteristic though the range of broadleaf deciduous species is being broadened through woodland management. Woods and trees feature strongly in the landscape and often penetrate the villages, blending them into the landscape.
