This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… Foreword written by Tony Blair Open This directory was designed for people with a disability, though the information included will be useful to everyone. The Land of the Prince Bishops has some of the most stunning landscapes in Britain. From its high Pennine moorland in the west to the limestone cliffs of its North Sea coastline in the east, County Durham boasts an impressive variety of landscape for you to explore. Upper Teesdale, in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is home to England's highest waterfall, High Force. At Barnard Castle, on the banks of the Tees, you can explore the romantic ruins which gave the town its name, as well as the sumptuous Bowes Museum and the medieval Raby Castle with its majestic deer park. For people interested in wildlife and conservation there is much that can be done from home or a local accessible area. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, doing voluntary work, or getting yourself out into the countryside on your own, we hope you will get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside. By contacting Open Country or another of the organisations listed here, you can help to encourage better access for all in the future.

  • Sedgefield Local Plan Saved Policies
    Foreword Background The 2004 planning reform introduced a new planning policy framework across the country.

As a result the new unitary council, Durham County Council as sole Local Planning Authority for County Durham, is preparing a new plan for the district known as the Local Development Framework. This new plan will transitionally replace the existing 9 adopted Local Plans. The new planning system made provision for the existing Local Plans to be ‘saved’ for an initial three year period. This is to ensure that they remained a material consideration for the determination of planning applications and to safeguard against a policy vacuum. This initial three year period ended on 27 th September 2007. As the former Council’s of County Durham were still in the early stages of preparing the new plan for their respective areas an application was made directly to the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government to ‘save’ the Local Plan policies still considered necessary for a further three years. Each former Council’s application was successful as a result directions were served on each Council confirming all policies to be saved and extending their life for a further three years. These policies can therefore continue to be used in the determination of planning applications. The remaining policies expired on 27 th September 2007; they were effectively deleted on this date. To make the application to the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, the Councils had to follow a strict protocol.
