Summary SWAT Archaeology has been commissioned by Pascoe Property Developers Ltd to prepare an Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment of the proposed development area (PDA) of land at the former Klondyke Works, Newtown Road, Ashford, Kent. This Desk Based Assessment is intended to explore and disseminate the known and potential heritage resource within the site and the surrounding area, and to assess the likely impacts of the development proposals on this resource. Based on this data the potential for archaeological sites either on or in the near vicinity of the proposed development can be summarized as: • Prehistoric: low • Iron Age: low • Roman: low • Anglo-Saxon: low • Medieval: low • Post-Medieval: high • Modern: low The PDA is situated in the south east area of Ashford known as Newtown on the western side of Newtown Road and covers an area of 2.4 acres of the former Klondyke Carriage works for the Ashford Railway Works. The centre of Ashford is circa 1km to the north west. The western side of the PDA is bordered by the railway line from Ashford towards Hastings. To the south is Newton School and the west and north Newtown Road, with the surviving railway works on the opposite side of Newtown Road. The site lies on the western side of the East Stour river valley and was previously and area of pasture prior to the Railway Works. The Stour, has been an attraction for millennia. Evidence from Palaeolithic and Neolithic period have been found along the Stour, especially in the area to the north of Ashford around the Conningbrook quarry. South and south east of Ashford has found evidence of the Mesolithic, Bronze Age, Iron Age and Roman although within the PDA assessment area, there is little by 5 Development of land at the former Klondyke Works, Newtown Road, Ashford, Kent Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment way of below ground archaeology. Much of the KHER records in the assessment area are dominated by known locations of the Post Medieval demolished Railway Works buildings or surviving Grade II listed buildings. The PDA does not affect their significance which is for reasons that are historical and aesthetical. Map regressions confirms that the PDA has been used for agricultural land as pasture from at least the Medieval period until the arrival of the Railway Works at the PDA in 1898 and its subsequent demolition in 2010. Therefore, any impact on surviving archaeological remains from prior to the Post Medieval period is likely to have been high. Aside from any below ground archaeology relating to the Klondyke Works, the PDA has low potential for all other periods. The site potentially has

  • Annex 9 Draft Reply to the Consultation on Rail Action Plan for Kent
    Annex 9 Draft reply to the Consultation on Rail Action Plan for Kent Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council welcomes the Rail Action Plan for Kent and wishes to support this document, subject to some additional comments. The Rail Forum staged by the County Council last November was excellent and it put the rail industry, the train operating company, Network Rail and the Department for Transport (DfT) on notice that the County Council, the District Councils and Parish Councils of Kent together with the many rail user groups were all deeply serious and motivated about the next franchise. Between then and now we have had the swingeing increases in fares and the poor performance of Southeastern Railway over the winter period to further reinforce everyone’s intention that next time it will be better and that there will be a sharper focus on the emerging specification for the next franchise and a closer scrutiny of the commissioning process. The draft Plan is admirably comprehensive and pays good attention to the needs of rail passengers in West Kent. The key issues that concern us are well covered. Services on the West Malling/Maidstone line are highlighted. The importance of fares, timetables and service performance are well to the fore. The following comments are not a criticism; just a pointer to what we believe will make the coverage of the document that bit more complete as far as the needs of this area are concerned. • The mention of high speed services on the Medway Valley line is welcome. We should include the need for a stop within this Borough.

  • Chapter 11: Transport and Parking
    11 Transport and Parking Introduction 11.1 This Local Plan seeks to manage transport through promoting alternative modes of travel, infrastructure improvements and by allocating land for new development in areas which are well served by facilities and/or public transport. Transport considerations have been a key factor in influencing the location of development within this Plan, with the focus on Royal Tunbridge Wells and other town centres in order to avoid significant new development dispersed through the Borough’s villages or throughout the countryside. 11.2 In order to encourage walking, cycling and the use of public transport, improvements are sought to these networks, and careful consideration will be given to the needs of the users of these networks. 11.3 To continue past patterns of development with associated patterns of transport and consumption is unsustainable. However, since parts of the Plan area are characterised by a dispersed settlement pattern, it will also be necessary to cater for the private car during the Plan period. By promoting alternatives to the car for access to new development and by reducing the amount of parking in new developments, more efficient use can be made of the land available for development, particularly in places with good public transport accessibility. 11.4 However, the Local Planning Authority does not control the transport system and complementary transportation and land use planning strategy is achieved through co- ordination with the relevant authorities. 11.5 The Department for Transport (via the Highways Agency) is responsible for trunk roads such as the A21. Construction, improvement and maintenance of other statutorily adopted highways are the responsibility of Kent County Council, as Highway Authority.

  • Travel Topics Issue 111 Spring 2010
    Travel Topics Issue 111 Spring 2010 The watchdog for Tonbridge Line Commuters from Tonbridge, Paddock Wood and Hildenborough E-mail: [email protected] Amber lights As we arrive at another general election the future of rail is in the balance. While all the main political parties have stressed the importance of developing railways as the carbon-friendly method of mass travel, there are other bodies who seem to be intent to sabotage its future. As we went to press, the impasse between Network Rail and the RMT over signalling rosters had yet to be resolved, and the threat of several days of disturbed travel remained. Meanwhile, the ability of railway management to manage when times get hard is still unconvincing as events around Christmas clearly showed, SET once again demonstrating weaknesses in the speed and accuracy of their communication, and managing their chain of control when coping with harsher than usual weather conditions. Well-intentioned initiatives, such as concentrating on a few key announcements on their website had the contrary effect of eliminating everything else. We hope the feedback they sought from this exercise may yet assist on future occasions. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Long Term Rail Plans We have referred before to the unusually large action, writing tough letters to the Secretary of catchment area of our local stations, which is State to seek the trains’ re-instatement. While caused primarily by the poor services on West Malling station may be some way from our neighbouring lines. One of the main criticisms own patch, the forced migration of many of its levied at the timetable changes that were natural users to our trains should concern us all.

It is an important document which sets out what exactly is required and how this will be delivered. It is a technical piece of evidence which underpins the development strategy for the borough and ensures that the vision of the Local Plan can be achieved. 1.3 The provision and delivery of infrastructure is vital for the development of sustainable communities, new homes, and economic growth. 1.4 The IDP provides information on existing capacity or deficit in demand for services, details of existing committed infrastructure delivery, and the impact of proposed new development on services and infrastructure. It sets out what will be needed to support new development, including delivery body/bodies, location, type, timescale, cost and source of funding, where this information is available.
