  • Landscape Sensitivity Appraisal New Alresford
    WINCHESTER DISTRICT LOCAL PLAN PART 2 LANDSCAPE SENSITIVITY APPRAISAL NEW ALRESFORD This appraisal has been prepared with reference to Hampshire County Council’s guidance document ‘Assessing Landscape Sensitivity at a Strategic Level’ (2006) which recognises the use of Landscape Character Assessments to inform land use and land management policy and, in addition, the need to assess the main attributes of landscape as a basis for gauging sensitivity. The approach in this guidance document does not try to place a value on different landscapes, nor does it seek to establish the capacity of landscape to accommodate development. In addition, this appraisal is based on published Winchester City and Hampshire County Council documents on landscape character and type; physical constraints identified through a desk top exercise; and professional judgement from site visits. A more detailed landscape assessment may be required prior to the final identification and allocation of sites for development. _________________________________________________________ CONTENTS Page 1.0 Landscape and Townscape Character and Types 2 1.1 Landscape Character 1.2 Townscape Character 1.3 Landscape Type 2.0 Landscape Sensitivity 4 2.1 Physical landscape 2.2 Experiential / Perceptual 2.3 Historic Environment 2.4 Biodiversity 2.5 Visibility 3.0 Sensitivity Appraisals 7 3.1 Area east of Sun Lane 3.2 Area within Arlebury Park 3.3 Area west of Drove Lane 3.4 Area adjacent Spring Gardens 4.0 Summary of Key Landscape and Townscape Issues 10 Appendix 1 Visibility Constraints Map Appendix 2 Landscape Sensitivity Map New Alresford Landscape Sensitivity Appraisal November 2013 1 1.0 LANDSCAPE AND TOWNSCAPE CHARACTER AND TYPES Reference: County level 1 Landscape and Townscape Character Areas which identify key characteristics, qualities and forces for change: - New Alresford and areas to north and west: Itchen Valley 3c.

  • New Alresford Town Council - Needs Summary Local Plan Part 2
    New Alresford Town Council - Needs Summary Local Plan Part 2 Introduction Over the last six years a plan for managing development and change within the whole of Winchester District, Local Plan Part 1 (LP1), has been evolving. The final version was adopted by Winchester City Council (WCC) in March 2013. LP1 sets the framework for a more detailed plan, Local Plan Part 2 (LP2), which will highlight areas for development and tailor the general polices in LP1 to local circumstances. This work is particularly crucial in New Alresford because the town is so small - about 1 sq. mile. The town is required to accommodate about 500 new homes between 2011 and 2031, support economic and commercial growth, and retain and improve local shops and community facilities. At the same time we must maintain and enhance the special character of the town and its setting. The City Council’s approach to this work has been to invite the Town Council to work with its residents and businesses to identify the future ‘needs’ of the town in a document to be submitted to WCC by the end of May 2013. These needs will be used to assess the various sites offered for development, and the suitability of each site to meet these needs. Well over 100 people have worked in four ‘Needs Assessment Groups’: Infrastructure, Open Spaces, Housing, and Employment and the Local Economy. Group meetings were held between February and April 2013 and consisted of elected town councillors, residents and business owners from the Town. This paper is a summary of the reports produced by each group.
