  • Landscape Character Assessment Part 2
    PART 2 THE CHARACTER OF THE WOKINGHAM LANDSCAPE 5 LANDSCAPE TYPE A: RIVER VALLEYS Landscape Character Areas A1: Thames River Valley A2: Loddon River Valley A3: Blackwater River Valley Characteristics of Landscape Type 5.1 There are three character areas classified as being of the River Valley landscape type. These correspond to the valleys of the Rivers Thames and Blackwater which respectively, define the north and south boundary of the district and the Loddon which bisects the district, in a south-north direction. This landscape type is distinguished by a flat lowland alluvial/river terrace floodplain supporting a mixture of arable and pastoral farmland generally set within a partially wooded context creating a semi-enclosed landscape. Key Characteristics • Flat to gently shelving. • Predominantly alluvial floodplain with some areas of river terrace. • Important wetland and marginal habitats. Wokingham District Landscape Character Assessment 52 • Pastoral fields and meadows with large arable fields further away from river. • Semi-enclosed landscape with open fields framed within a wooded backdrop. Relationship to Berkshire Landscape Character Assessment 5.2 The River Valley landscape type corresponds to Type B: Lower River Floodplain of the Berkshire Landscape Character Assessment. The particular character areas are B4: Hurley Thames, B6: Lower Loddon and B7: Blackwater. Generally, there is good parity between the boundaries of the landscape types. The main distinction is that two small areas within the valleys of the Thames and Blackwater have been separated into the River Valley with Open Water landscape type. Additionally, there have been some minor boundary changes due to the more detailed scale of this assessment including some areas where River Terraces have been distinguished from the main valley landscape.

  • Summary SHLAA Post
    Wokingham Borough Five Year Housing Land Supply Statement at 31 March 2017 Published 6th June 2017 Wokingham BC Five Year Housing Land Supply Statement March 2017 Executive Summary Introduction This Five Year Housing Land Supply Statement provides a summary of the land supply position as at 31 March 2017, and provides the projected housing delivery for the five year period 1 April 2017 and 31 March 2022. A number of improvements have been applied in this assessment over the approach taken in previous years to improve the robustness of the projected delivery. Monitoring Requirement The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) requires authorities to identify and update annually a supply of deliverable sites sufficient to provide five year worth of housing against their housing requirements with an additional buffer of either 5% or 20% (moved forward from later in the plan period) depending on historic delivery rates to ensure choice and competition in the market.1 The Council accepts that the housing requirement set out in the latest adopted plan, the Wokingham Core Strategy (adopted 2010) is out of date. The latest, robust full assessment of housing needs is the Berkshire (including South Bucks) Strategic Housing Market Assessment (published in 2016) (hereafter referred to as the SHMA). This study was jointly commissioned by the six Berkshire local authorities and the Thames Valley Berkshire Local Enterprise Partnership and has been agreed by each party under the Duty to Cooperate. The SHMA identified Wokingham Borough to be part of a Housing Market Area with Reading Borough Council, Bracknell Forest Council and West Berkshire Council.
