Loggerheads Neighbourhood Plan 2013-2033 Loggerheads Neighbourhood Plan 2013-2033 Version 2.20 “Made” 15 February 2019 Foreword This is the ‘Made’ version of the Loggerheads Neighbourhood Plan, following successful Referendum in January 2019 and the earlier draft plan. It reflects the hard work of the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group over the last three years and the commitment of Loggerheads Parish Council to the principles and practice of “Localism”. However, it is your involvement and support that has been most valuable. Following the successful outcome at referendum on 10th January 2019 the Loggerheads Neighbourhood Plan has now been ‘made’ by Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council and forms part of the development plan for the area, together with the Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stoke on Trent Core Spatial Strategy 2006 – 2026 (adopted October 2009), the Newcastle-under-Lyme Local Plan 2011 (adopted in 2003), the Minerals Local Plan for Staffordshire(2015 -2030) and the Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent Waste Local Plan (2010 to 2026). To the extent that development plan policies are material to the determination of a planning application or an appeal. the decision must be taken in accordance with the development plan unless there are material considerations that indicate otherwise. The Plan came through the independent examination with its intent and purpose intact, the only changes being to some words in the policies. In September 2015 Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council, designated the Loggerheads Neighbourhood Area. This comprised the entire area of Loggerheads Parish. Throughout this plan, ‘Loggerheads’ refers to the entire parish and neighbourhood plan area. The term ‘Loggerheads Village’ refers to that settlement only and not the entire parish. The production of the Neighbourhood Plan has been led by the Parish Council, with input from residents and external consultants. The Neighbourhood Plan will be in force until the end of 2033, unless it is revised and replaced before that time. The Loggerheads Neighbourhood Plan reflects local evidence and the comments received from questionnaires and surveys that have been undertaken during 2015-16. It is evident that people are happy living in the parish, but have a desire to make improvements where appropriate. The policies set out in the Neighbourhood Plan seek to address key concerns relating to housing, transport, heritage, economy and sport, health and community facilities.

  • The Shropshire Enlightenment: a Regional Study of Intellectual Activity in the Late Eighteenth and Early Nineteenth Centuries
    The Shropshire Enlightenment: a regional study of intellectual activity in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries by Roger Neil Bruton A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham January 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The focus of this study is centred upon intellectual activity in the period from 1750 to c1840 in Shropshire, an area that for a time was synonymous with change and innovation. It examines the importance of personal development and the influence of intellectual communities and networks in the acquisition and dissemination of knowledge. It adds to understanding of how individuals and communities reflected Enlightenment aspirations or carried the mantle of ‘improvement’ and thereby contributes to the debate on the establishment of regional Enlightenment. The acquisition of philosophical knowledge merged into the cultural ethos of the period and its utilitarian characteristics were to influence the onset of Industrial Revolution but Shropshire was essentially a rural location. The thesis examines how those progressive tendencies manifested themselves in that local setting.

The term ‘Loggerheads Village’ refers to that settlement only and not the entire parish. The production of the Neighbourhood Plan has been led by the Parish Council, with input from residents and external consultants. Once made, the Loggerheads Neighbourhood Plan will form part of the statutory development plan for the area, together with the Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stoke on Trent Core Spatial Strategy 2006 – 2026 (adopted October 2009) and the Newcastle-under- Lyme Local Plan 2011 (adopted in 2003). The Borough Council, as the Local Planning Authority, will have to determine planning applications in accordance with the statutory development plan, including the Neighbourhood Plan, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The Neighbourhood Plan will be in force until the end of 2033, unless it is revised and replaced before that time.

It introduced Neighbourhood Planning into the hierarchy of spatial planning in England, giving communities the right to shape their future development at a local level. It is a powerful tool in that it has statutory weight and must be taken as a material consideration in planning decision-making. 1.2 The National Planning Policy Framework highlights that Neighbourhood Planning gives communities power to develop a shared vision for their area and that Neighbourhood Plans can help to deliver sustainable development.

  • Blore Heath 1459
    English Heritage Battlefield Report: Blore Heath 1459 Blore Heath (23 September 1459) County: Staffordshire District: Newcastle-under-Lyme Parish: Loggerheads Grid Ref: SJ71443527 (centred on Audley's Cross) Historical Context The Battle of Blore Heath took place as a consequence of renewed instability in English affairs. By September 1459 the party that aligned itself with Richard, Duke of York, felt it was necessary to re-assert its influence over King Henry VI. As in 1455, the last time that the rivalry between the Yorkists and the faction headed by the Beaufort family - which had the ear of the king and his queen, Margaret of Anjou - erupted into open conflict, the supporters of the Duke of York hoped to concentrate their forces and take the field before the Court party could muster an effective response. But on this occasion the king's forces were too quick for them. As Richard Neville, Earl of Salisbury, hurried south from his Yorkshire stronghold of Middleham in an effort to unite with the forces of the Duke of York at Ludlow, he was intercepted at Blore Heath by Lord Audley and the local adherents of Queen Margaret and the young Prince of Wales. Audley's Lancastrian army was variously reckoned to be superior by between 4:1 and 2:1. Contemporary estimates for the Yorkists numbered from 3,000-5,000; those for their opponents between 8,000 and 14,000. The bulk of this information can be gleaned from The Attainder of Richard Duke of York and others, written into the Parliament Rolls.1 Contemporary chronicles do not disagree with the Attainder in any marked way, and they all explicitly refer to the battle as taking place at Blore Heath.2 Location and Description of the Battlefield Blore Heath battlefield straddles the present A53 running south-west between Newcastle-under-Lyme and Market Drayton.

  • Appeal Decision
    Appeal Decision Inquiry held on 20-23 November 2018 Site visits made on 19 and 23 November 2018 by H Baugh-Jones BA(Hons) DipLA MA CMLI an Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State Decision date: 25th January 2019 Appeal Ref: APP/P3420/W/18/3199376 Gravel Bank, Mucklestone Road, Loggerheads, Newcastle-under-Lyme TF9 4DJ The appeal is made under section 78 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 against a refusal to grant outline planning permission. The appeal is made by Muller Property Group against the decision of Newcastle-Under- Lyme Borough Council. The application Ref 17/00787/OUT, dated 20 September 2017, was refused by notice dated 5 January 2018. The development proposed is residential development and access, all other matters reserved. Decision 1. The appeal is dismissed. Procedural Matters 2. A land ownership issue resulted in a revision to the submitted red line plan prior to the Inquiry. The application boundary now omits a small area of land next to the south-easternmost corner of the site The Council confirmed that it did not oppose the plan revision. However, the appellant undertook a consultation exercise on the amended plan which yielded no responses from interested parties. Whilst this matter is not determinative, I have taken the latest iteration of this plan into account in the interests of precision. 3. The applicationRichborough is in outline with only access Estatesto be considered at this stage. At the Inquiry, it was confirmed that with the exception of the Site Location Plan (Drawing No 513 001 revision A) and Proposed Site Access (Drawing No SCP 17282/F02 Rev A), all other plans are for illustrative purposes only.
