  • Should Urban Expansion Take Precedence Over Conservation of the Green Belt?
    Should urban expansion take precedence over conservation of the Green Belt? Caroline Hughes Wellsway School Summary Keywords Search: Urban Expansion, Green Belt, Urban Sprawl, Conservation, Bath, Development, Regional Spatial Strategy, BANES, Housing Abstract I have always been interested in proposed building changes in the area surrounding where I live, taking regular notice of development issues within it so upon hearing of the Urban Expansion I immediately sought to further my knowledge by reading the local newspapers and asking people who were taking some kind of role in either supporting or opposing it about it. After the opportunity arose to take part in the Extended Project I felt this was a brilliant topic to research, as it lends itself well to the requirements of the Extended Project as well as the fact that I am very interested in it and want to pursue a career which could potentially deal with issues such as Urban Expansions. Should Urban Expansion take precedence over conservation of the Green Belt? Introduction I have always had an interest in buildings and the environment, so when I first heard of the proposal to build more houses in Bath, it immediately gained my attention. I was doing work experience with the Duchy of Cornwall at the time, and they were having a meeting whereby people from the village, in which I also live, came to look at the Duchy’s proposed development within the village. At this meeting there was a representative from CAUS (Campaign Against Urban Sprawl) who talked about the proposed plans for the development of Bath, who presented their argument opposing the plans, the argument of which I intend to investigate later in my essay.

The natural setting to Bath - its geology and climate - has shaped the city’s topography over thousands of years. Bath sits within the River Avon valley as it cuts through the southern end of the Cotswold Hills and where it is joined by a number of tributaries. The location of the hot springs within the river valley attracted early settlers.

  • World Heritage Site Setting Study Information Paper October 2009 PART 2
    Chapter 4 Historical Setting Methodology The methodology for assessing the historical setting of the World Heritage Site (WHS) was to carry out a search of all elements in the Sites and Monuments Record (SMR) / Historic Environment Record (HER) (see Appendix 6) and to commission a desktop study of the main historic routes into and out of the city, and of the main historical views and places of interest in and around the city (see Appendices 2 and 3 City of Bath World Heritage Site Setting Identification Project: Historical Research, Mike Chapman 2006). The results of these studies have been analysed for their particular importance to the Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) and the following themes highlighted: • Roman occupation and activities that related to the Roman town and its hinterland (see Map 7 at the end of this chapter) • The Georgian town, and Georgian buildings and places of interest (see Map 8 at the end of this chapter) • Historic routes to and from the city still in use (see Map 9 in Appendix 2) • Bath Stone (oolitic limestone) quarrying or mining in the local area and associated settlements and facilities or infrastructure, both Roman and 18th or 19th century • Key areas used by residents of or visitors to the city for leisure in 18th or 19th century (see Map 10 in Appendix 3) • Key viewing points overlooking the city known from written history, literature or art • Key views from within the city or its immediate environs out to the surrounding landscape as known from written history, literature or art Each of these individually and in combination contribute to and form the contextual setting of the WHS.

  • I Appreciate from Having Spent Time in the Past Trying to Influence the West
    From: Sent: 08 December 2017 10:17 To: Planning Policy Subject: Local Plan 2016-2036 Issued & Options consultation winter 2017 I appreciate from having spent time in the past trying to influence the West of England Spatial Plan that once authorities have made up their mind there is little chance of having them listen to the public. Nevertheless I am submitting my comments on the above:- Spatial Priorities include under (5) reducing the risk of hazards to human health including improving air quality and under 6 reducing the need to travel. The link road from the A4 to the A37 runs counter to both these aims. Spatial Strategy Options (3.03) says options to avoid the loss of green belt must be considered first. What options have been considered? The link road will drive right through the green belt and as sure as night follows day housing will follow the road. Diagram 10 (Item 5) refers to protection of Stockwood Vale. Why? Putting the road if one is considered essential ,which I would challenge,through the Vale would be less injurious in every respect than putting it close to existing housing at the rear of Bifield Rd,Stockwood. so the answer to Q10b is that the road should be taken through Stockwood Vale and the answer to Q11i is Yes. Regarding Q14b this can only be achieved by increasing frequency and reliability and ensuring the cost is affordable for those who require public transport on a regular basis eg daily journey to and from work. Richard Hall From: Sent: 15 December 2017 09:38 To: Planning Policy Subject: Fw: Local Plan 2016-2036 Issued & Options consultation winter 2017 Further to my e-mail of 8 December,I have some additional comments,which i trust will be considered carefully.
