Foreword

The process of drawing up this Village Plan has truly been a steep learning curve for all those who have taken the time to be actively involved.

Personally I never envisaged the work that was to evolve when the Rural White Paper came out in 2001. The community of Tarleton have been remarkable in working together to get this milestone of producing the first Village Plan through the Vital Villages Initiative in the area of West Lancashire.

I hold in extremely high regard all those volunteers who have freely given their time and worked effortlessly to gather, analyse Contents and interpret information. However, this is only part of the process of working towards making Tarleton a better place to live for current and future generations. The areas outlined in the Action Plan will be Page 3 Foreword achieved with further effort, something that I am sure the Page 4 Introduction community of Tarleton is quite capable of achieving.

Planning Guidance The Village Plan provides us with the ‘Roadmap’ for the future and will prove to be a most powerful tool, which can be used to influence a wide range of issues and projects in the coming years. The power of the Village Plan lies in the fact that it is based upon true consultation with effective engagement of the local community. Through the Village Plan each member of the community can be assured that their individual voice is amplified for maximum influence.

It is therefore with a great sense of pride that I commend to you, your Village Plan for Tarleton.

Our vision is of a living countryside with thriving rural communities and access John Hodson to high quality public services. Chairman Tarleton Parish Council

Introduction

The Rural White Paper “Our Countryside, A Fair Deal for Rural England” was presented to Parliament in November 2000. The vision set out states:

‘Living in the countryside has a great deal to offer. People value the quietness and sense of space, the beauty of natural surroundings, the traditions and sense of community. But over the last twenty years, the pace of social and economic change has put increasing pressure on rural communities. While some have attracted new businesses, many have lost local services and jobs in agriculture and other traditional industries. Poor quality development has encroached on some valued landscapes and wildlife habitats have declined. Young people have left more remote rural areas, while some villages close to cities have become commuter dormitories’

In January 2001 the residents of Tarleton took the first step to producing this Village Plan.

A Village Design Statement was started after initial consultation at a public meeting. A Core Design Team comprising of members of the community groups was set up. The community showed great interest and came forward with enthusiasm and have willingly given their time to make this document what it is today, a comprehensive audit of the communities views.

The Core Design Team secured funding to be able to progress the vision of completing a Village Design Statement for Tarleton Parish. A financial budget was set and the work began.

In the Autumn of 2001 the Countryside Agency pointed the Village Design Group in the direction of the REAL (Rural Evaluation and Action for Lancashire) team, based at Community Futures in Preston. A Community Audit was carried out and the evidence gathered during the Village Design Statement Residents Survey and the REAL survey and consultation workshops form the basis of this “Tarleton’s Village Plan”.

Our vision is of a working countryside, with a diverse economy giving high and stable levels of employment.

Through the consultation carried out during the Village Design Statement Survey residents expressed strong views about the future character of development in Tarleton.

When residents were asked about aspects of life in Tarleton that gave rise to concern, most of the issues could be related to the rate, size and extent of recent developments and Traffic Transport and Travel proved to be extremely high on the anxiety regarding the impact of any future developments. agenda for residents and businesses in the area.

Crime & Safety

Our aim is to sustain and enhance the distinctive environment, economy and The community of Tarleton seek to live or work in a safer social fabric of the English countryside for the benefit of all. village, with a reduced fear of crime

Although crime and safety is a high priority for Tarleton, the findings suggest that 86% of residents have never been a victim of crime. However, it did show that some residents have a significant fear of crime.

The success of the Crime and Community Safety week held in the Autumn of 2002 and the interest stimulated encouraged residents to set up Neighbourhood Watch Schemes and to get their personal possessions marked. It was encouraging to know that Tarleton residents are willing to help themselves.

Action Plan Outcomes

• That the community be consulted on whether they wish the current Police Station to be relocated to a more central location within the village.

• That self help schemes such as Neighbourhood Watch and how residents can protect their own property be publicised regularly in partnership with Lancashire Constabulary. We will fund a new programme of town and village plans, to help 1,000 communities map and safeguard their most valued features and influence future development plans.

• Publicising the Countryside Stewardship scheme to encourage landowners to promote farming methods that will protect and enhance the environment.

We want a diverse rural economy that attracts new businesses which fit with their surroundings, and provides opportunities for all.

The Future

We want to look after, restore and conserve the landscape, wildlife, architecture and traditions that make our countryside special.

Previously residents from Tarleton have allowed other people from outside of the village to make our decisions for us. What happens in Tarleton in the forthcoming years is up to us. We have seen a large amount of change over the last 30 years and that change is not going to disappear. We can choose to do nothing or be proactive to preserve what is important to us. During the Village Plan process we have proved that we locally have the skills and talents to take issues forward in a professional manner. The evidence so clearly shown in this Village Plan tells the Local Authorities or those who live in the village and not engaged in the community, that we have people with strong opinions and commitment in our midst. The Action Plan will be reviewed on an annual basis and a master copy will be updated so the community can see what has been achieved. By this means the community can regularly address the needs and requirements that arise as appropriate.
