  • Lca 16.5 Ashley Green Settled Plateau
    LCA 16.5 ASHLEY GREEN SETTLED PLATEAU LCA in Context LCA XX LCA 16.5 ASHLEY GREEN SETTLED PLATEAU KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Elevated, undulating plateau, of chalk overlain by clay with flints, which gives rise to loamy/clayey soils with impeded drainage. • Relatively large fields of arable cultivation, interspersed with smaller fields of rough grazing, pasture and paddock on village edges. Defined by hedgerows with trees and occasional fenced or open boundaries. • Small pockets of woodland scattered across the plateau, with a significant area of ancient broadleaved woodland located at Hockeridge Wood in the north and orchards south of Ashley Green. • Villages are spread linearly along roads, often joining one another e.g. Botley and Ley Hill and Lye Green and Orchard Leigh. A mix of modern and historically vernacular buildings. • Leyhill Common is a distinctive area of neutral grassland amongst broadleaved, mixed and yew woodland crossed by straight rural roads. It has been a golf course since 1900. • Extended fields with extensive boundary loss and 20th century enclosure dominate the area. Pre 18th century enclosures occur in proximity to settlements. • A medieval barn and moated site at Grove Farm and Whelpley Hill camp, a prehistoric or medieval fortification are scheduled monuments. Other archaeological features relate to the clay and flint geology e.g. Medieval pottery and Neolithic flints. • Local footpaths occur frequently, crossing farmland and woodland and linking villages. • The A416 and B405 cut through the landscape, and form the structure of linear settlements. • Views often across fields to a wooded or open skyline, with some to Chesham and the adjacent ridge and valley landscape.
