Badby NDP Responses to Examiner's Questions Badby Neighbourhood Development Plan Response to Examiner’s Questions 1. The BPNP mentions that the definition of the development confines has been undertaken for the first time in this neighbourhood plan (5.2.6). However the Local Plan 1997 mentions ‘within the existing confines of the village’ with relation to Badby (Policy HS22). There is a paragraph explaining what this term means (4.90), so presumably the boundary not defined on an accompanying proposals map? The BPNP mentions (3.2.6) that the Confines were drawn up by DDC in 2003, could I please have further details on this. Could I please also see the DDC guidance on defining village confines, which I understand was used for the emerging new local plan. Response Badby was defined as a restricted infill village in the 1997 Daventry Local Plan. The confines were not physically mapped for the purpose of the Local Plan, instead the textual description in paragraph 4.90 has been used to determine whether land is within or outside the confines. The District Council undertook some work to map the confines for a number of villages, including Badby some years ago (early 2000’s), with the intention that these would be used for a review of the Local Plan. Officers of the District Council engaged with Badby Parish Council to define confines, however, these were never formally considered or adopted and the intention to review the Local Plan was overtaken by the introduction of the new planning system in 2004. There are a number of different versions of the confines on file. The Qualifying Body would like to submit the version that the Parish Council has been using on an informal basis and this is contained in Appendix 1. A version that the District Council has on file appears as Appendix 2. Given that the confines work was just preparatory work for the plan review, which did not progress, that they did not have any endorsement from Members, and that the policy context has since changed, the confines from the early 2000’s have little, if any weight. However, the Parish Council has used them on an informal basis. The District Council’s response to the Regulation 16 consultation followed the consultation on the Emerging Draft Local Plan Part 2. This is now at Proposed Submission Stage. Appendix 3 contains a copy of the District Council guidance note for neighbourhood plan groups which pre-dates the confines guidance contained in the Proposed Submission Local Plan Part 2 (page 37). The guidance note is still available on the Council’s website and will be updated after the Local Plan has been adopted. 2. The Parish Council have indicated they support the suggested amendments from DDC on Policy 7, but the amendment is requiring clarity on whether or not the policy applies outside of the confines, and presumably if it does, in what circumstances. It would be talking about acceptable development to promote the rural economy if that was so. Saved policies EM15 and EM16 would be relevant, although rather restrictive given guidance in the NPPF2012 (para28). You will be aware that I am using the earlier NPPF to assess your Plan against, in line with the transitional arrangements. Response The Qualifying Body proposes the following revisions of policy 7 (new text is shown as underlined; deleted text is shown as strike through): 1. Proposals for agricultural development will be supported provided they do not detract from the character and appearance of the area. They should not cause adverse impact on the local area by reason of noise, light pollution, or traffic levels beyond the capacity of local rural roads. 2. New business and industrial development within the parish confines will be supported provided the scale and character of the proposal reflects the residential nature of the surroundings and provides vehicle parking and access using the NCC Parking Standards and Standing Advice as a guide. 3. Proposals for new business and industrial development within the open countryside will not normally be supported, exceptions may include proposals for small-scale developments related to the re-use of buildings 4. Proposals that promote homeworking and self-employment through the small-scale changes of use of buildings and improvements in the telecommunications infrastructure will be supported. 3. BPNP mentions (para 3.2.5) a housing survey undertaken by DDC. Can I please see a copy of this. Response The District Council undertook a Housing Needs Survey for Badby in 2016 to inform the neighbourhood plan. A copy of the report is attached as Appendix 4, it can also be accessed from the following webpage: https://www.daventrydc.gov.uk/living/housing-strategy/housing-needs-surveys/ List of Appendices 1. Informal Badby Confines as perceived by Badby Parish Council (early 2000’s) 2. Informal Badby Confines as perceived by Daventry District Council (early 2000’s) 3. Confines Guidance Note 4. Housing Needs Survey Appendix 1 /:.' / /;:/ / ,t, \ -! Appendix 2 Appendix 3 Guidance Note for Defining Village Confines Guidance note for defining village confines Version 2 – January 2017 Village confines (also referred to as settlement/village boundaries) can only be defined or amended through the production of a local plan or neighbourhood development plan. This guidance note has been prepared to assist neighbourhood development plan groups define village confines for their neighbourhood plans. This is the first version of this resource therefore feedback on the usefulness of this tool would be appreciated and then we can improve it for the benefit of other Groups. Please send any comments to [email protected] The Council mapped confines for the limited development villages in the Saved policies of the Daventry District Local Plan but it is acknowledged that whilst the boundary is current in some parts of these villages there are areas where development has taken place whereby the confines could be updated. For restricted infill villages, these were defined through paragraph 4.90 of the Saved Local Plan, however a neighbourhood plan provides the first opportunity to define the confines boundary on a map should the group developing the plan wish to do so. The starting point for establishing the village confines is the Saved policies of the Local Plan, which sets out the current method for defining confines for restricted infill villages in paragraph 4.90, supporting text to Policy HS221. It is considered that this method is equally applicable for limited development villages where the Neighbourhood Planning Group wishes to review their village confines in a Neighbourhood Plan. The Issues and Options consultation report for the Part 2a Daventry District Local Plan, which will eventually replace the Saved polices of the Local Plan, contains additional criteria for defining confines. 2 Principles from the two documents have been combined to form this guide: Principles for inclusion within the confines A. Buildings and curtilages which are contained and visually separate from the open countryside that are clearly part of a coherent network of buildings that form the village B. Areas of land with planning permission for built development that are directly adjacent to the village C. Allocations for built development in the plan or an NDP 1 https://www.daventrydc.gov.uk/living/local-plan/?Local%20Plan 2 https://www.daventrydc.gov.uk/living/planning-policy/part-2-local-plans/ Guidance Note for Defining Village Confines Principles for exclusion from the confines D. Gardens which are visually open and relate to the open countryside E. Individual, groups of dwellings and agricultural buildings that are detached or peripheral to the village F. Areas of employment or leisure use, including public open space, that is detached or peripheral to the village G. Land which would otherwise be outside the confines, even if it is between the edge of the village and a bypass Groups may feel that they wish to add locally specific principles. These may be acceptable if they conform with the principles set out in this guide, are justifiable and meet the basic conditions.. A record of confines definition or amendment should be kept, this will form part of the evidence base for the neighbourhood development plan. This is part of a series of tools to help Neighbourhood Planning Groups, which currently includes: • Site Assessment Form • Evidence Base Checklist • Project Management Template • Referendum Expenses Appendix 4 Badby Parish Housing Survey October 2016 P a g e | 3 Badby Parish Housing Survey October 2016 Contents Introduction ............................................................................................................................................ 4 Strategic and Planning Context ................................................................................................................ 5 Methodology .......................................................................................................................................... 6 Badby Parish Statistics ............................................................................................................................ 7 Affordability in Badby Parish ................................................................................................................... 8 Survey Analysis ..................................................................................................................................... 10 Housing Need Analysis .........................................................................................................................

Fine building is synonymous · with Robert Marriott Ltd., a member of the Robert Marriott Group, famous for quality building since 1890. In the past 80 years Marriotts have established a reputation for meticulous craftsmanship on the largest and small­ est scales. Whether it is a £7,000,000 housing contract near Bletchley, a new head­ quarters for Buckinghamshire County Council at Aylesbury (right) or restor­ ation and alterations to Easton Maudit Church (left) Marriotts have the experi­ ence, the expertise and the men to carry out work of the most exacting standards and to a strict schedule. In the last century Marriotts made a name for itself by the skill of its crafts­ men employed on restoring buildings of great historical importance. A re­ markable t ri bute to the firm's founder, the late Mr. Robert Marriott was paid in 1948 by Sir Albert Richardson, later President of the Royal Academy, when he said: " He was a master builder of the calibre of the Grimbolds and other famous country men. He spared no pains and placed ultimate good before financial gain. No mean craftsman him­ self, he demanded similar excellence from his helpers." Three-quarters of a century later Marriotts' highly specialised Special Projects Division displays the same inherent skills in the same delicate work on buildings throughout the Midlands. To date Hatfield House, Long Melford Hall in Suffolk, the Branch Library at Earls Barton, the restoration of Castle Cottage at Higham Ferrers, Fisons Ltd., Cambridge, Greens Norton School, Woburn Abbey restorations and the- Falcon Inn, Castle Ashby, all bear witness to the craftsmanship of Marriotts.
