INTRODUCTION 1.1 Key Transport Consultants Ltd (KTC) is retained by Longleat Enterprises Limited to provide transport advice in respect of proposed development on land on the Longleat Estate, to the South East of Tascroft Court and North of Cannimore Track, near Warminster in Wiltshire. This Transport Assessment (TA) has been prepared to accompany an outline planning application for a new hotel resort to include a water park, business conference facility and an immersive animal experience. All matters are reserved for detailed approval except vehicular access. 1.2 KTC has worked on a number of projects for Longleat Enterprises for a number of years and has a good understanding of the Longleat operation and transport effects. 1.3 This TA continues in Section 2 with a description of the existing site and local highway network including cycle and pedestrian facilities, and public transport services. The development proposals are described in Section 3. The transport policy context is considered in Section 4. 1.4 Section 5 sets out an appraisal of the accessibility of the site by means of travel other than the private car. The traffic impact of the proposed operation of the development is assessed in Section 6 and the results of a sensitivity test considering full operation of each land use are set out in Section 7. Parking provision is considered in Section 8 and conclusions drawn from the TA are provided in Section 9. 1 F:\DATA\Jobs\0745 Tascroft Farm, Longleat\Transport Assessment\Transport Assessment V3.0.docx 2. SITE AND LOCAL TRANSPORT NETWORK Site Location and Vehicle Access 2.1 The site currently comprises fields located on land to the south and south-east of Tascroft Court, near Warminster. The site lies to the north of a bridleway known as Cannimore Track, to the west of the Warminster Bypass section of the A36 Trunk Road (A36(T)) and to the south of the A362 county highway. The Pine Lawns Cemetery is adjacent to and north of the site and is reached via a public highway named Tascroft. The site is bounded by the A36(T) to the east, farmland to the south and north, and woodland within the Longleat Estate to the west. 2.2 The site is shown in a sub-regional context on a location plan, Figure 1, and the local highway network is shown on Figure 2. 2.3 The current western edge of the town of Warminster is approximately 150m north east of the eastern side of the site, beyond the Warminster Bypass. The entrance to Center Parcs Longleat is on Horningsham Road beyond the A362 Picket Post Roundabout, approximately 900m west of the site’s western edge, whilst the entrance to Longleat Safari Park is a further 700m to the west. 2.4 The A36(T) links between Bath, Salisbury and Southampton, passing to the west and south of Warminster. The A36(T) is dualled in parts and is subject to the national speed limit. The A36(T) meets the A362 at the Cley Hill Roundabout. From this roundabout Victoria Road leads north- east towards Warminster. The A36(T) northbound, A362 and Victoria Road arms to the roundabout all have single lane approaches, flaring to two lanes at the junction. On the A36(T) southbound approach there are two lanes from some 400m north of the roundabout. 2.5 The A362 is a single carriageway road that leads south-west from the Cley Hill Roundabout. It is subject to the national speed limit. Approximately 1km to the south-west, at the Picket Post Roundabout, the A362 continues west towards Frome, Longcombe Drive serves as one of several accesses to the Longleat Estate and Horningsham Road leads away to the south-west, providing the main route to the Center Parcs entrance, the Longleat main entrance at The Red Way, and to Horningsham village. 2.6 At the Picket Post Roundabout both the A362 approaches and Horningsham Road are single lanes flaring to two lanes at the junction. The Longleat access is an entrance only to the site and thus does not permit entrance to the roundabout. 2 F:\DATA\Jobs\0745 Tascroft Farm, Longleat\Transport Assessment\Transport Assessment V3.0.docx 2.7 It is proposed that the site will be reached from the A362 via the south end of a public highway named Folly Lane. Folly Lane originally linked the western outskirts of Warminster to the A362 but was severed by the construction of the Warminster Bypass. Consequently, cul-de-sac sections of Folly Lane now exist both to the west and east of the bypass. To avoid confusion with the section of Folly Lane lying to the east of the bypass, the section of Folly Lane that provides access to the site is referenced in this document as Folly Lane (A362). The portion of Folly Lane to the east of the bypass is referenced simply as Folly Lane. 2.8 Folly Lane (A362) meets the A362 at a simple priority junction. Having been reconstructed as part of the Warminster Bypass works, Folly Lane (A362) is a 7.3m wide single carriageway designed to modern standards and has with a footway on its south-west side, typically of approximate width 1.0m. 2.9 A public highway named Tascroft leads away to the west from the southern end of Folly Lane (A362) to provide access to Pine Lawns Cemetery and Tascroft Court. Tascroft has a single- track width carriageway with a line of mature trees on its south side behind which there is a narrow, paved footway. Pedestrian and Cycle Facilities 2.10 There is a footway adjacent to Folly Lane (A362) which links to the existing westbound bus stop on the A362. 2.11 Public Rights of Way (PROW) cross the wider Tascroft site. The first (reference WARM1) runs from the western boundary with the A362 across fields to the north of the Tascroft Court buildings to connect to the public highway, Tascroft. A second PROW (reference WARM66) runs along the western side of the Pine Lawns Cemetery and continues south across Tascroft fields linking with a third (reference CORY 48) that continues down through woodland to the southern boundary of the application site. WARM 91 runs on a broadly east-west alignment connecting the south end of Folly Lane (A362) along the south side of the Warminster Bypass to meet a bridleway known as Cannimore Track. All the above named PROW are classified as footpaths and an extract from the Wiltshire Council website showing the PROW in the vicinity of the proposed site is included in Appendix A. 2.12 A PROW known as Cannimore Track is classified as a bridleway (reference CORY 49). It runs from a country lane skirting the north-east side of Center Parcs to the west and passes along the south-eastern boundary of the application site. Alongside Cannimore Farm the bridleway has a hard surface and this continues eastwards through an underpass beneath the A36(T). 3 F:\DATA\Jobs\0745 Tascroft Farm, Longleat\Transport Assessment\Transport Assessment V3.0.docx 2.13 Two bridleways continue to the east of the bypass. WARM 65 is known as Cannimore Road and continues to the north-east to connect to a public highway, South Street. WARM 63 leads away first to the north-west before turning to the north-east to join Folly Lane at an entrance with a field gate. Throughout its length WARM63 is a paved route of vehicle width. All the bridleways noted above are identified as unsurfaced cycleway/path in the Warminster cycle map. Both WARM 63 and WARM 65 link to the residential areas to the west of Warminster and on to the centre of Warminster via on-road cycle routes. The Wiltshire Council cycle map for Warminster is also included in Appendix A. 2.14 National Cycle Network (NCN) Route 24 passes through Center Parcs and the Longleat Estate and can be accessed to the south of the proposed site. NCN Route 24 links between Frome and Warminster continuing to Salisbury and then towards Southampton. Public Transport Bus 2.15 Bus stops are located on the A362 in both directions near to the junction with Folly Lane (A362). The bus stops are located in bus laybys with a bus flag located at the south-westbound stop but there is no flag on the Warminster-bound side. 2.16 Bus service 53 operates between Frome and Warminster with services running approximately hourly.

  • Chapel of Longleat House, Wiltshire
    case study 11 Chapel of Longleat House, Wiltshire 1684 Private chapel, extant but gothicized1 Architect: William Taylor A London surveyor, active during the reigns of Charles II and James II, Taylor was employed by the first Viscount Weymouth from 1682 onwards to carry out works at Longleat House, including the fitting up of the chapel. A few years later Weymouth employed him for the building of a new chapel at Minsterley, his house in Shropshire.2 Historical note Few Elizabethan estates had a chapel. Among the great prodigy houses, Hardwick was unusual in having a functioning chapel.3 At Longleat the archi- tectural features of the former chapel, including the chapel window and but- tresses, were dismantled before 1580 at the request of Sir John Thynne’s mason because they would “much disvergure” the overall design of the building.4 According to Annabel Ricketts the seventeenth-century chapel was L-shaped, located on the ground floor and oriented to the north-west. The shape probably resulted from the symmetry of the overall plan.5 The arrange- ment of the chapel was part of a major rearrangement of the whole house, commissioned by the first Viscount Weymouth and executed by William Taylor. However, Weymouth also took advice from Wren. In 1683 he wrote to his brother “he would be grateful for Sir Christopher Wren’s opinion.”6 1 Annabel Ricketts, The English Country House Chapel, Building a Protestant Tradition (Reading: Spire books, 2007), 274. 2 Henry Lancaster, “Thynne Thomas, first Viscount Weymouth (bap. 1640, d. 1714), politician,” in Oxford Dictionary of National Biography Online (2008), doi:10.1093/ref:odnb/27424.

  • Together We Learn
    Horningsham Primary School Together we learn Together we learn Welcome Together we learn Horningsham is a happy, vibrant and creative primary school where we aim to create a secure and lively environment in which each child can grow to their full potential. It is the combined effort of all concerned that makes our school such a happy and successful one. We hope you will become an active part of your child’s education and that we can maintain a close working relationship between school and home. Foreword from Lord Bath Living in Corsley as I did when I was a child, there was never a chance that I could attend Horningsham Primary School; but I certainly sent my two children there. It played such an important part in their early lives; a building that was architecturally exciting, with an atmosphere of extended family which took them into its formative embrace. Prior to its construction there had been a variety of very small schools within the village, but this was the first occasion that one had been created upon a purpose- built site. This was in 1844 at the instigation of Harriet, the third Marchioness; and there was an extra classroom added in 1893. Harriet was my great-great- grandmother, but the school took its name from her son, John Alexander, the 4th Marquess, who assumed the onerous duties as head of the family at the tender age of six. It was of course from him that I derive my own name, although my age was ten times greater than his before I was required to assume the same mantle of responsibility.

  • John Denham: New Letters and Documents
    JOHN DENHAM: NEW LETTERS AND DOCUMENTS HILTON KELLIHER IT was inevitable that the fundamental divisions made in English society by the Civil Wars should affect the ranks of the poets and playwrights, and unsurprising that the former largely and the latter almost entirely would adhere to the king's party. Not that, from our more distant vantage-point at least, the literary advantage lay with the larger faction. When the lines were drawn the Parliamentarians could muster Milton, Marvell, the young Dryden, and, proximum longo intervalloj the elderly George Wither, who had done his best work in the reign of James L Edmund Waller occupied an unenviable position between the two camps; while Cowley, Denham, Fanshawe, Lovelace, Quarks, and Suckling, along with the dramatists Davenant, the two Killigrews and Shirley, are the most notable of those who either served Charles I or his successor in exile or suffered directly on their behalf. Among the latter party John Denham (fig. i) occupied in political terms a moderately distinguished place, acting as agent at home and as envoy abroad to both Charles Stuarts in turn. As a poet he is chiefly remembered as the author of Cooper^s Hill^ the first great topographical poem in the language, and he is sometimes said to be the one who did most to promote the transition of English verse from the Metaphysical to the Augustan mode. The purpose of the present rather disjointed notes is to supplement the very different but equally indispensable accounts given by his earliest biographer, John Aubrey,^ and his latest, Brendan O'Hehir,^ with some letters and documents that have recently come to light, more especially relating to his life in exile on the Continent between September 1648 and March 1653.

  • The Impact of Commercialization in Early Fourteenth-Century England: Some Evidence from the Manors of Glastonbury Abbey
    .J The impact of commercialization in early fourteenth-century England: some evidence from the manors of Glastonbury Abbey by Ian Rush .... Abstract This article assesses the impact of grain commercialization on the diet and wages of stipendiary famuli on a number of manors held by the abbot of Glastonbury in southern and south-western England at the beginning of the fourteenth century. Using correlation and regression analyses, it shows that grain commercialization had a negative impact on workers' living standards. Specifically, high grain commer- cialization seems to have caused, or at least contributed to, the distribution of low-value, and thus low-quality, grains to stipendiaryfamuli. Such actions seem to have been an important aspect of an estate policy that emphasized the exploitation of the market and the labourer in search of profit. The early fourteenth century has often been called a time of crisis. Although the medieval English economy was just beginning to realize its greatest potential, the period was one of intense population pressure, high inflation and environmental disasters. ~ Some historians have argued that the increasing population of the preceding centuries led to increased urbanization, and both in turn stimulated increased commercialization in the form of more trading institu- tions such as markets and fairs, occupational specialization, the production and use of more coinage and advanced agricultural techniques. These agricultural changes increased the availability of grain and livestock products for the market. Thus, the English economy was quite strong by the early fourteenth century, and seemingly able to support the substantially increased population. One exponent of the optimistic case, Graeme Snooks, has suggeste d that the increasingly commercial economy of England effected or at least facilitated a rise in real gross domestic product (GDP) during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.

  • Havenbird Limited
    Manor Farm Corsley Warminster Wiltshire BA12 7QE Consultation Response to Planning Application 14/08778/FUL To Jemma Foster Economic Development and Planning, Wiltshire Council, Trowbridge, BA14 8JN Dear Ms Foster I am writing to OBJECT to the above application for the following reasons. 1) History. Manor Farm Corsley is a listed grade II* building which was constructed by Sir John Thynne who built Longleat at the same time in the 1560s. Many famous Elizabethans stayed here including the Thynne family, Sir Walter Raleigh and his brother Carew. My family and I have lived at Manor Farm Corsley for 20 years, and the house today is virtually the same as it was when it was built 450 years ago. 2) Turbine distance from the house. The turbine will be seen from the top and first floor of the house including what is known locally as “Raleigh’s Room”, in the winter and spring when the copse to the north is not in leaf. The turbine is 1,010 metres away from the house. 3) Turbine distance from grounds and setting. The turbine will be seen from the grounds all year round, some 800 metres distance away. The turbine will be just 600 metres from Manor Farm’s wider setting on the edge of the land under our ownership and historically part of Lord Bath’s Longleat Estate. 4) Visitors. Over the years we have received many requests from the local community to hold events at Manor Farm, and about 1,000 visitors on average come to these events each year. These include: - the Elizabethan Evening – those who attend this annual event for outdoor theatre - Warminster and Frome Arts Societies to paint in the grounds - Corsley Festival Choir and their guests - The Church for various events - Local schools - Parish lunch and outdoor sports.

  • THE ORIGIN of the THYNNES. I Have Always Taken Some Interest In
    193 THE ORIGIN OF THE THYNNES. I have always taken some interest in the origin of the Thynnes of Longleat, not only as being myself their senior heir-general, but also because, as is well known, the alleged origin of their name is very peculiar. The evidence seems to me, at least, so unsatisfactory that I should like to treat the subject in a critical spirit. The best account, beyond question, is that written by Mr. Morris in 1855,1 Mr. Botfield's "Stemmata Botvilliana" being based on the researches of Mr. Morris. But, at the outset, I dispute wholly the supposition that the "inne" from which the family took its name, could be their residence at Stretton. Mr. Morris instances "Talbot lune," the Earl of Shrewsbury's town house at Shrewsbury; and Mr. Botfield appeals to Lincoln's Inn, Gray's Inn, Furnival's Inn, etc. But these all prove that the " Inn" was the town residence of a country noble ; it was certainly not the name of his own home in the country, still less the name of a small freeholder's home. The idea, I do not hesitate to say, is simply out of the question. My next point is that I can find no evidence of a Botfield taking the name of Thynne (" of th'inne "). Botfields we have, and Thynnes we have; but no Botfield speaks of a Thynne as a relative, nor does any Thynne so speak of a Botfield ; nor did any of the family style himself Thynne alias Botfield, till they began to rise in position under Henry VIII.
