    2036 Site Allocations Flood Risk Sequential Test

    South East Lincolnshire Local Plan 2011 – 2036 Site Allocations Flood Risk Sequential Test (February 2017) 1.0 Introduction 1.1 This document provides the sequential test for proposed allocations identified in the pre-submission draft South East Lincolnshire Local Plan (SELLP). The approach taken considers all the potential sites considered in the consultations undertaken in the: • Preferred Options consultation (January/ February 2016); and • Further Preferred Sites consultation (July/ August 2016). • Sites considered to be developable which have not been selected as allocations1. 1.2 The report initially provides an overview of the flood risk issues for the SELLP area, alongside a summary of both national and local policy requirements in relation to flood risk. Following this, the document describes the methodology applied to undertake the Sequential Test for the housing sites identified in the SELLP to establish whether it would be possible for development to be directed to locations with a lower risk of flooding and, where relevant, also identifies when the Exception Test will need to be applied to proposed allocations. The tables included in Appendix 1 provide commentary on each settlement and divides the sites considered into those proposed to be allocated in the pre-submission SELLP; and those, which are considered developable, but are not proposed for allocation. 2.0 Overview and Policy Context National Policy 2.1 The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) sets out the Government’s planning policy for England including the consideration of flood risk. The NPPF states in paragraph 99 that, ‘Local Plans should take account of climate change over the longer term, including factors such as flood risk, coastal change, water supply and changes to biodiversity and landscape’.
  • Crowland Abbey

    Crowland Abbey

    Crowland Abbey. West Doorway. To show particularly the Quatrefoil illustrating its traditional history. (From a negative by Mr. H. E. Cooper.) 74 CROWLAND ABBEY. By Frances M. Page, B.A. (Paper read to the members of the Northamptonshire Natural History Society on the occasion of their visit to Crowland, July 18th, 1929.) Perhaps no place that has watched the passing of twelve centuries can show to modern generations so little contemporary history as Crowland. All its original charters were destroyed by fire in 1091, and of the chronicles, only two survive—one of the eighth and the other of the twelfth century. Several histories have been compiled by its monks and abbots who worked from legend and tradition, but the most detailed, that of Ingulf, the famous first Norman Abbot, has been recently exposed as a forgery of much later date. But in the carvings upon its West front, Crowland carries for ever an invaluable record of its past, which posterity may read and interpret. The coming of Guthlac, the patron saint, to Crowland in the eighth century, is one of the most picturesque incidents of early history, for there is an austerity and mystery in this first hermit of the fen country, seeking a place for meditation and self-discipline in the swamps which were shunned with terror by ordinary men. “Then,” says a chronicler, “he came to a great marsh, situated upon the eastern shore of the Mercians; and diligently enquired the nature of the place. A certain man told him that in this vast swamp there was a remote island, which many had tried to inhabit but had failed on account of the terrible ghosts there.
