Purpose of the Report 1.1 North Kesteven District Council (NKDC) has commissioned a Landscape Character Assessment (LCA) of the district which will be used to inform the Local Development Framework (LDF). NKDC is in the early stages of preparation of its LDF which will cover the plan period 2001-2021. 1.2 A detailed assessment of the character, distinctiveness and qualities of the landscape of North Kesteven is required in order to inform policies to be contained in the forthcoming LDF, in accordance with the requirements of Planning Policy Statement 1: Delivering Sustainable Development (PPS1) and The Regional Spatial Strategy for the East Midlands (RSS8). 1.3 PPS1 sets out the Government’s commitment to the protection of the environment. PPS1 states that planning policies should seek to protect and enhance the quality, character and amenity value of the countryside and urban areas as a whole. In order to achieve this, planning policies should be based on up-to-date information on the environmental characteristics of the area. 1.4 RSS8 states that when preparing LDFs, LCAs are needed in order to underpin, and act as key components of, criteria-based policies to be used when assessing the suitability of land for development in rural or urban fringe areas. Policy 30 of RSS8 states that these should be prepared to coincide with the adoption of the LDF. 1.5 Planning Policy Statement 7 (PPS7) sets out the Government’s objectives for sustainable development in rural areas. With regard to local landscape designations, the Government recognises and accepts that there are areas of landscape outside nationally designated areas that are particularly highly valued locally. The Government believes that carefully drafted, criteria-based policies in Local Development Documents (LDDs), utilising tools such as landscape character assessment, should provide sufficient protection for these areas, without the need for rigid local designations that may unduly restrict acceptable, sustainable development and the economic activity that underpins the vitality of rural areas. 1.6 There are no nationally designated landscape areas within North Kesteven. The early drafts of the current Local Plan included a local landscape designation, the ‘Lincoln Cliff Area of Great Landscape Value’. This was subsequently abandoned in favour of the current 'Lincoln Cliff Landscape Character Area' policy. In accordance with PPS7, local landscape designations should only be maintained or, exceptionally, extended where it can be clearly shown that criteria-based planning policies cannot provide the necessary protection. This LCA considers how best the importance of this striking landscape feature can be conserved and managed in the context of the criteria given in paragraphs 24 and 25 of PPS7. 1.7 The Lincolnshire Structure Plan Policy LPA8 designates a series of ‘Green Wedges’. These are defined further in the North Kesteven Local Plan 2007. This LCA assesses the appropriateness of the Local Plan policy and designation from a landscape perspective and makes appropriate recommendations. 1.8 The LCA includes, as a separate section which may form the basis of a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD), a Design Statement indicating how necessary development can be accommodated whilst ensuring that local character and distinctiveness are protected. David Tyldesley and Associates 1 North Kesteven Landscape Character Assessment 2007 2. Methodology 2.1 The LCA was commissioned in January 2007. It follows the guidance given in “Landscape Character Assessment: Guidance for England and Scotland” prepared by the Countryside Agency and Scottish Natural Heritage in 2002. Essentially, 5 steps have been followed: Step 1 Defining the Scope 2.2 The scope of the study was established with NKDC in the first week of January 2007 before any work was undertaken. The scope was predominantly defined by the agreed purpose of the LCA, as described in Chapter 1, and the scale and level of detail considered appropriate for this purpose (see steps 3 and 4). 2.3 Whilst no stakeholders (other than NKDC) have been involved in the LCA process, information was obtained on other assessments from neighbouring authorities (see step 2). 2.4 It was agreed with NKDC that the starting point for the LCA would be the joint Countryside Commission and English Nature report on “the Character of England: landscape, wildlife and natural features”, 1996 (the Countryside Character Approach), which identifies four character areas within North Kesteven (see Chapter 4). This was compared with the District Council’s own interpretation of the 4 national character areas in the Local Plan, which identifies a separate character area for the Lincoln Cliff scarp and dip slopes (see Chapter 4). 2.5 Using these existing landscape character areas as a starting point, this LCA then defines their boundaries, validates and refines them. It also sub-divides them into smaller sub-areas which, whilst sharing common characteristics with the main regional landscape character types, merit identification because of their distinctiveness and variations in character. The LCA identifies, for each of the landscape sub-areas, the key characteristics, a description of the landscape character (see step 4), analysis of its sensitivity to pressures for change, and provides guidelines for enhancement/restoration and accommodating new development. 2.6 It was agreed that mapping

  • Design & Access Statement
    DESIGN & ACCESS STATEMENT – Plot 2, 23 Brookside, Rearsby. DESIGN & ACCESS STATEMENT Planning Application for Erection of 1 no. New Dwelling 23 Brookside Rearsby Leicestershire PARKINSON DODSON & CHEUNG Chartered Architects 217 Scraptoft Lane, Leicester LE5 2HT t: 0116 2416236 f: 0116 2419068 DESIGN & ACCESS STATEMENT – Plot 2, 23 Brookside, Rearsby. This design and access statement is to accompany a planning application to Charnwood Borough Council for the proposal to take down barn and erect 1no. residential dwelling at 23 Brookside, Rearsby, Leicestershire. The proposal involves the demolition of a redundant and dilapidated barn and the building of a dwelling within the footprint of the original barn unit. OVERVIEW This area of Rearsby is in the centre of the village on the main Leicester-Melton (A607) road and is in North-East Leicestershire, about 7 ½ miles from both towns. It has a population of just under a 1000 and has a number of new housing developments but retains its rural character strong community spirit. The main route through the village is now much quieter following the opening of the Rearsby Bypass and Gaddesby Lane is now a Cul-de-sac. The river Wreake passes beyond the village at Rearsby Mill and is joined by Rearsby brook at the centre of the village. Rearsby still retains its Post Office (at its present time), its local primary school and two Public Houses. In terms of its accessibility, the village is well served with regular bus services between Melton and Leicester at every 20 minute intervals, Monday to Saturday and an hourly service on Sundays.

    Rutland County Council Local Plan 2016 – 2036 Land west of Uppingham Road – Policies H1.2 / Statement of Common Ground between: Rutland County Council (RCC) and Pegasus Planning on behalf of Davidsons Developments Limited November 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This ‘Statement of Common Ground’ (SoCG) has been prepared jointly by Rutland County Council (RCC) and Pegasus Planning on behalf of Davidsons Developments Limited in respect of the proposed residential allocation at Land west of Uppingham Road, Oakham (Policy H1.2 of the emerging Rutland Local Plan). Policy H1.2 and the associated allocation and propose an indicative capacity of 73 homes, 21 of which are proposed to be affordable. This capacity is based on the Rutland County Council’s formula applied to sites in Oakham and may be subject to change following site assessments and development of detailed design taking into account the site’s context and securing a high quality urban design solution. Pegasus Planning on behalf of Davidsons Developments Limited consider that Policy H1.2 should be amended to refer to an indicative capacity of 90 dwellings as master planning work demonstrates that the site is capable of accommodating a higher number of dwellings whilst delivering a high quality solution. The policy and allocation have been informed by evidence that has been collected to date, which considers the implications of growth and whether the development and supporting infrastructure is deliverable. The purpose of the Statement of Common Ground is to inform the Inspector of the Rutland Local Plan and other interested parties about the areas of agreement between Rutland County Council and the site promoter (Pegasus Planning on behalf of Davidsons Developments Limited) contained in policy H1.2 of the Rutland Local Plan (2016-2036).
