  • Mears Ashby Village Design Statement Supplementary Planning Document
    BOROUGH COUNCIL OF WELLINGBOROUGH AGENDA ITEM 5 Development Committee 30 January 2017 Report of The Head of Planning and Local Development MEARS ASHBY VILLAGE DESIGN STATEMENT SUPPLEMENTARY PLANNING DOCUMENT 1 Purpose of report To seek adoption of the Mears Ashby Village Design Statement (VDS) as a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). 2 Executive summary A VDS has been prepared for Mears Ashby by the local community with assistance from the borough council. The document will supplement policies in the North Northants Joint Core Strategy (NNJCS), by helping to define the local character in the parish. This report recommends the adoption of the VDS as an SPD. 3 Appendices Appendix 1 – Mears Ashby Village Design Statement Appendix 2 - Mears Ashby Village Design Statement SPD Strategic Environmental Assessment Screening Report Appendix 3 – Schedule of Comments received to the consultation 4 Proposed action: 4.1 The committee is invited to RECOMMEND that the Mears Ashby Village Design Statement is adopted as a Supplementary Planning Document. 5 Background 5.1 SPDs add further detail to policies in the local plan. They can be used to provide further guidance for development on specific sites or on particular issues. SPDs are capable of being material considerations in planning decisions but are not part of the development plan. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) advises that they should be used where they can help applicants make successful applications or aid infrastructure delivery, but that they should not be used to add unnecessarily to the financial burdens on development. 5.2 In order to be adopted as an SPD documents must be subject to consultation for at least four weeks.

  • Mears Ashby Conservation Area Character Appraisal
    MEARS ASHBY CONSERVATION AREA CHARACTER APPRAISAL 1. INTRODUCTION Mears Ashby Conservation Area was designated in January 1977, but no associated character appraisal was produced at the time as relevant government guidance did not require it. However, all conservation areas now need such appraisal documents in order to properly identify the particular characteristics that it is desired to preserve and enhance in accordance with the provisions of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. 2. ORIGINS AND DEVELOPMENT 2.1 Mears Ashby is a village located approximately 5 miles to the west of the town of Wellingborough, lying in the centre of its parish where four main roads converge: that from Northampton enters the south side and a road crossing the parish from east to west connects the village with Wilby and Sywell. 2.2 Higher parish land in the north and east is covered in boulder clay and rises to a height of 122 metres above sea level. A band of lower estuarine sands and clays separates this from the slightly lower areas of Northampton sand. The latter predominates in the west and south and is cut by the steep-sided valleys of south south east-flowing streams where the upper lias clay is exposed down to a height of 76 metre above sea level. 2.3 The creation of one such stream by this local geology, the Swanspool Brook (known locally as Bell’s Brook), flowing through the village centre, coupled with the availability of a series of adjacent springs and a plentiful supply of well water, appears to be a key factor in the settlement’s siting in this particular location.
