The Parish Plan is an important document as it states the views of the residents of Withington Parish and its future direction. It also feeds directly into the Shrewsbury Area Place Plan, which is used by Shropshire Council Departments when reviewing requirements for such projects as road improvement, housing and commercial planning, water and sewerage. This updated plan was produced by analysing answers to the questionnaire distributed to each household in March 2013. Of the 91 questionnaires distributed, 59 were completed and returned. The Shropshire Rural Community Council (RCC) carried out an independent analysis of the results using computer software specifically designed for this purpose. The Parish Plan is also published on the Withington website www.withingtonshropshire.co.uk 3 Withington 2008 Parish Plan: Review of progress Progress was determined by asking Parishioners to indicate their level of satisfaction as to whether the 8 objectives contained in the 2008 Parish Plan had been achieved (see table below) OBJECTIVE ACHIEVEMENTS HOUSING AND Oppose any further housing or commer- • All housing/commercial development applications have COMMERCIAL cial development.

Management Proposals Appendix 1: Map of Wrockwardine Conservation Area Appendix 2: List of Historic Buildings 1 Appendix 3: Historic environment records for Wrockwardine 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Designation Conservation Areas were first designated in England and Wales under the Civic Amenities Act 1967. Following subsequent revisions, the principle Act concerning the designation of Conservation Areas is currently the Town and Country Planning (Listed Building and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. Conservation Areas are areas of special architectural or historic interest, the character and appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance. They are special areas where the buildings and the spaces around them interact to form distinctly recognisable areas of quality and interest. Building groups, walls, trees and hedges, open spaces, views and the historic settlement pattern all combine to create a sense of place. It is the character rather than simply the buildings that Conservation Areas status seeks to protect. 1.2 The purpose of the appraisal The Wrockwardine Conservation Area is an area of special architectural and historic interest, which was designated in April 1999.

Rural Settlement List 2014
National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.
