Through neighbourhood plans, local people now have the opportunity to shape new development as planning applications are determined in accordance with the development plan, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The South Lakeland adopted Core Strategy and saved policies of the old Local Plan (until superseded by the Development Management DPD), South Lakeland Land Allocations DPD and the Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Development Plan (once made) will be part of the statutory development plan for the area. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) is a material consideration in any planning application determinations. Neighbourhood Plan Process and Preparation 1.2 Lower Allithwaite Parish Council decided to prepare a NDP for Lower Allithwaite in October 2014 and applied to South Lakeland District Council for designation as a neighbourhood area on 15th October 2014. The application for designation was approved by the District Council on 5th February 2015. The designated Neighbourhood Area is the same as the Parish Council Boundary and is shown on Map 1. This includes the villages of Lower Allithwaite, Cartmel and outlying areas. 1.3 A steering group comprising Parish Councillors and local residents was established to progress work on the plan. The steps in preparing at Neighbourhood Development Plan are set out in Figure 1 below.

Add in further community engagement as it happens in the future. Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Development Plan to 2025 –Discussion Draft April 2016 7 2.0 Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Development Plan Vision and Objectives Vision for Lower Allithwaite By 2026 Lower Allithwaite will include two very different villages and a number of small rural settlements scattered throughout the countryside. In Allithwaite the village will be enhanced by a number of developments which are well integrated, linked directly to the village with pedestrian circulation having been significantly enhanced. Traffic management has resulted in a quieter, safer village. In Cartmel, the heritage aspects of the village have been enhanced and protected. Traffic and parking management schemes have improved access to the many businesses and residents, and visitors benefit from improved circulation. Neighbourhood Plan Objectives – SG check and amend 1. To raise awareness of Cartmel’s Conservation Area and protect the built environment both in the villages and in the wider countryside. 2. To protect locally significant green spaces within the villages and in the surrounding countryside from inappropriate development. 3. To protect and enhance existing levels of access to the local countryside. 4. To review parking for residents, businesses and visitors, in order to reduce the congestion caused by inappropriate parking in villages, improve traffic flow and pedestrian safety. 5. To promote safer use of the wider road network, to ensure safer pedestrian and cycle access within the Parish, improve and enhance the cycle network, and improve disabled access to the footpath network. 6. To ensure housing stock meets local affordable needs and enables people of all ages to continue to resident within the local area. Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Development Plan to 2025 –Discussion Draft April 2016 8 7. Ensure new housing developments are small scale and meet the aspirations of low density and appropriate design. 8. To ensure the proportion of permanent dwellings to holiday homes remains at a level that supports a sustainable local community. Insert objectives on economy, tourism and community facilities. Lower Allithwaite Neighbourhood Development Plan to 2025 –Discussion Draft April 2016 9 3.0 History of Lower Allithwaite Parish 3.1 Lower Allithwaite is a civil parish in the South Lakeland district of the English county of Cumbria. It includes the villages of Allithwaite and Cartmel, the historic Cartmel Priory, Humphrey Head and Cartmel Racecourse. Allithwaite 3.2 Allithwaite is a small village in the Parish, located roughly 1.2 miles (1.9 km) west of Grange- over-Sands. 3.3 The Anglican parish church in the village is St. Mary's Church, built in 1864–65 and designed by the Lancaster architect E. G. Paley. There is a small primary school, Allithwaite Primary C of E School located next to the church. Both church and school were built by a legacy left to the village. Wraysholme Tower 3.4 A mile to the south, Wraysholme Tower is a 15th-century pele tower, used as a barn and cow-house, adjoining a 19th-century farmhouse. The tower was built by the Harrington family of Aldingham. A Michael Harrington acquired a grant of free warren in Allingham in 1315. The tower is 40 feet (12 m) by 28 feet (8.5 m). It has axes north and south and is built of local limestone rubble, with angle quoins. The walls are 4 feet (1.2 m) thick at their base. There is a projecting garderobe, about 7 feet (2.1 m) square, at the south-west corner, where there is a spiral staircase. There was originally an entrance at the north-west corner. Cartmel 3.5 Cartmel is a very attractive village in a beautiful valley setting bounded by the ridges of Hampsfell to the east and Howbarrow to the west. Within the conservation area are many fine listed buildings clustered around the Grade 1 Priory Church of St Mary and St Michael. The river and water meadows running through the heart of the village soften the hard edges of the built environment and are key features which must be protected. 3.6 The village is located 2.2 miles (3.5 km) north-west of Grange-over-Sands and close to the River Eea. The village was once known as Kirkby in Cartmel, as it was the location of the church for the large parish of Cartmel. It is the location of the 12th century Cartmel Priory. Cartmel Priory 3.7 Cartmel Priory church serves as the parish church of Cartmel, Cumbria (formerly in Lancashire). The priory was founded in 1190 by William Marshal, created 1st Earl of Pembroke, intended for the Augustinian

  • A History of Kents Bank
    A History of Kents Bank. Kents Bank lies to the west of Grange over Sands and until the middle of the 19th century it comprised a few buildings on the shore where the cross bay route across Morecambe Bay met the land. Abbot Hall and Kents Bank House, then known as Kents Bank Hotel which was operating as a lodging house, stood on opposite sides of the road at the base of the hill now known as Kirkhead Road. A railway station had opened in August 1857 on the "Ulverstone to Lancaster" railway running along the edge of the shore. Part way up the hill on Kirkhead Road was Laneside Farm. Further along the coast, towards Grange, Guides Farm sat on the shore at the bottom of the road now known as Carter Road. Seawood House was above Guide Farm at the top of the steep hill with access from Carter Road. The two roads climbed northwards up the hill to join the main road linking Grange with Flookburgh. Kentsford Road, the connecting road between Kirkhead Road and Carter Road, did not exist. The land between Kirkhead Road, Carter Road and Allithwaite Road was farmland. Mary Lambert – Landowner. Mary Winfield Lambert owned all the land and buildings around Kirkhead Road including Laneside Farm which was the base for the agricultural operations on the land in Kents Bank. On her death in 1857 Mary Winfield Lambert lived at Boarbank House, Allithwaite. Miss Lambert’s estate stretching from Boarbank Hall in Allithwaite to Abbot Hall in Kents Bank was sold by auction in August 1858 to ‘capitalists from Manchester, Bury and Whitehaven’ (Westmorland Gazette Aug 28 1858).

  • A History of Allithwaite
    A History of Allithwaite. This short history pulls together pieces of research and information on the village of Allithwaite but will hopefully lead to more in depth research in the future. Allithwaite lies to the north of Morecambe Bay, south of the historic village of Cartmel and en route from Grange-over-Sands to Flookburgh. No river flows through the village but springs perculate through the limestone on which the village is built with a beck running out from the rock at the lowest point of the village and these water sources will have encouraged early settlements. The village is built on the lower slope of a hill called Templand. Earlier histories talk about the outlying areas such as Templand and Birkby, Applebury and Outerthwaite, Rosthwaite and Wraysholme but very little about the village itself and the growth of the village can be documented after the building of the church and school in 1865 and more dramatically in the 20th century. Early history Artefacts (stone blades) from Kirkhead cave on the southern outskirts of the village date to approximately 11000 to10000BC. The cave is one of the most northerly recorded Palaeolithic sites in the country (Lindale Low being the other site). Most recently, at the start of the 21st century, Bronze Age remains from between 1500-1000 BC have been found in the centre of the village. From this period into the Iron Age, archaeologists state there is a lack of settlement evidence in the area. Kirkhead may have played an important part in local history as it has been suggested by more than one historian that this was the place where the first chapel in the Cartmel area was built.

They were subsequently submitted to the Secretary of State, examined by the Planning Inspectorate and formally adopted by the County Council in January 2011. At a very late stage in the process, there was a successful legal challenge in connection with a procedural matter and the documents were quashed by the High Court. It is, therefore, necessary for the consultations to be repeated before the documents can be resubmitted to the Secretary of State. The challenge was about the inclusion, without a further round of consultations, of an Area of Search for sand and gravel known as M12 Roosecote quarry extension in Site Allocations Policy 7. This Area of Search was intended as a possible replacement for the nearby Roose sand and gravel quarry near Barrow in Furness, which is a Preferred Area in the policy.
