Multi-Agency Flood Plan has been developed in line with the recommendations of the section called Emergency Planning (Chapter 5) of the Emergency Preparedness, Part One of the Civil Contingencies Act (2004) and responders responsibilities in responding to emergencies as described in the Civil Contingencies Act guidance. The reason for having a specific Flood Plan is because of the complex nature of flooding and the consequences that arise, requiring a comprehensive and often sustained response from a wide range of organisations. Multi-Agency Flood Plan supersedes our previous Multi-Agency Flood Plan entitled Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin Flooding Response Plan. This plan will NOT cover flood risk from foul sewage, burst water mains, canals and reservoirs. Ground water flooding has been taken into account. A Generic Local Resilience Forum (LRF) plan is in place for reservoirs. It is entitled Generic Off Site Plan for Reservoir Emergencies and can be viewed at www.westmerciaprepared.org. This plan has been developed with full reference to the preliminary guidance Developing A Multi-Agency Flood Plan for Local Resilience Forums and Emergency Planners, Version 3. This is joint guidance issued jointly by the Civil Contingencies Secretariat, the EA and DEFRA. In Shropshire the risk of flooding is with us all the time. The county contains a number of designated main rivers, together with many ordinary water courses and the Severn catchment in particular

The event will be held in an Area of Natural Beauty (AONB) in the Shropshire hills. This area is known for hiking and historical sites. Craven Arms contains the Discovery Centre which will form one of the main meeting points for the LBW where a meeting room can be rented by the hour. There is Culmington village hall which can be rented for the event and it is possible to rent the Craven Arms community centre. The hall will be rented if there are sufficient attendees registered for the LBW otherwise gatherings can be held at the Discovery Centre or Andy’s in Siefton about 1km out of Culmington. Apart from the hall, the LBW will operate as in previous years with a loose schedule being run by the attendees. A potluck evening will be held either in the hall or at Andy’s house. At the end of each section of this proposal is a set of links where more information can be found.

  • A Landscape Strategy for Cheshire West and Chester Borough
    A LANDSCAPE STRATEGY FOR CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER BOROUGH General Description This character type is defined by undulating topography and the associated small to medium scale enclosure into which it is divided. Key characteristics are the generally cohesive and un- fragmented historic landscape in the south of the borough, small woodlands, ponds and streams, nucleated rural villages and scattered farmsteads. Land use is mainly pasture. Away from main roads, railways and settlement the landscape is generally quiet and rural. Views within this type very much depend upon location and the nature of the immediate topography. There is a range of monuments from Bronze Age barrows to post medieval canal locks. The character type is found across a large part of the Cheshire West and Chester borough; to the east between Northwich and the Sandstone Ridge and in the south of the borough. Visual Character The location of this landscape type is reflected in the prevailing views which extend to adjacent character areas, either out over the low-lying plain or up towards the often dominant Sandstone Ridge. Roads typically follow the rolling topography, offering extensive views from high vantage points out over the immediate field pattern and extending to the high ground in the far distance such as the Pennines in the east. Long distance views are sometimes affected by large scale industrial works in adjacent areas. From low ground the landscape appears smaller in scale due to the increase in enclosure and the contained views where skylines are typically formed by hedgerow trees, woodland and farmsteads, with occasional electricity pylons and church spires.
