Cultural Heritage 6.1. Introduction and competent expert evidence 6.1.1. This chapter assesses the potential cultural heritage impacts associated with the construction and operation of the Scheme, following the methodology set out in Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (DMRB) Volume 11, Section 3, Part 2 (HA 208/07) (Highways Agency, 2007a). This chapter summarises the regulatory and policy framework related to cultural heritage, details the methodology followed for the assessment and describes the existing environment in the area surrounding the Scheme. Following this, the design and mitigation measures proposed to manage and minimise potential impacts are specified, after which residual cultural heritage effects of the Scheme are presented. Assumptions and limitations made during the assessment are provided in Section 6.5. 6.1.2. A key focus of this cultural heritage impact assessment concerns the Scheme impacts upon the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site (WHS) which is located to the west of the existing Little Eaton junction, with some parts of the Scheme being located within the WHS boundary. Thus, in addition to presenting the findings of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) in respect of cultural heritage, this chapter also incorporates a Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) which specifically addresses the impacts of the Scheme upon the Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) of the Derwent Valley Mills WHS (refer to Appendix 6.1 [TR010022/APP/6.3]). 6.1.3. This chapter is also supported by a gazetteer of cultural heritage assets provided in Appendix 6.2 [TR010022/APP/6.3], whilst Appendix 6.3 [TR010022/APP/6.3] provides a range of maps, plans, photos of relevance to the assessment. 6.1.4. All figures cited within this chapter are included within Environmental Statement (ES) Volume 2 [TR010022/APP/6.2]. 6.1.5. This chapter of the ES has been prepared by competent experts with relevant and appropriate experience. The technical lead for the cultural heritage assessment has 25 years of relevant experience and has professional qualifications as summarised in Appendix 1.1 [TR010022/APP/6.3]. 6.2. Legislative and policy framework 6.2.1. As discussed in Chapter 1: Introduction, the primary basis for deciding whether or not to grant a Development Consent Order (DCO) is the National Policy Statement for National Networks (NPSNN) (Department for Transport (DfT), 2014). NPSNN Sections 4 and 5 set out policies to guide how DCO applications will be decided and how the impacts of national networks infrastructure should be considered. Table 6.1 identifies the NPSNN policies relevant to the cultural heritage assessment and where in this ES chapter information is provided to address these policy requirements.

    Inspiring change for Important Invertebrate Areas in the UK Invertebrate Survey of the A30 and A38 road verges in Area 1 (Cornwall and Devon) 11th September 2014 Susan Thompson - Grants & Trusts Officer Steven Falk Mark Tunmore Saving the small things that run the planet October 2015 1 Executive summary Between late May and late August 2015, Buglife Services carried out an invertebrate survey of the A30 and A38 in Devon and Cornwall. 41 visits to 23 sample points were undertaken on the A30 and 25 visits to 18 sampling points were undertaken on the A38, and a range of invertebrate groups were targeted. 866 taxa were recorded, the list being dominated by flies (361), beetles (177), butterflies & moths (109), bugs (82), bees, ants & aculeate wasps (53), spiders & harvestmen (50), grasshoppers & crickets (11) and dragonflies & damselflies (11). Pitfall trapping (not permitted) would have extended the beetle and bug lists greatly. The list included a number of rare and scarce species (notably the tachinid fly Policheta unicolor and lygaeid bug Trapezonotus ullrichi) and seemingly the first SW England record for the Southern oak bush-cricket (Meconema meridionalis) which is a recent British colonist. The list reveals the tremendous variety of life cycle strategies and other ecological relationships associated with road verge invertebrates. Pollinators are very well represented within the species list. The list and sample sizes reveal the strong influence of surrounding habitat, geographic location, altitude and underlying geology/ground conditions. There is a discernible ‘Bodmin Moor effect’ (decreased abundance and diversity of thermophilic invertebrates with altitude) and a strong ‘Dartmoor effect’ (increased abundance and diversity of thermophilic invertebrates on the A38 east of Dartmoor).

  • A38 Derby Junctions Scheme—Little Eaton Junction
    A38 DERBY JUNCTIONS SCHEME—LITTLE EATON JUNCTION. APPLICATION FOR DEVELOPMENT CONSENT ORDER. WRITTEN REPRESENTATIONS BY BREADSALL PARISH COUNCIL TO THE EXAMINING AUTHORITY Part 1. Selection of the preferred route Breadsall Parish Council believes that the process by which Highways England (HE) and its predecessor the Highways Agency (HA) selected the preferred route for the Little Eaton junction was deeply flawed. As a result, the selection of the preferred route should be completely re-examined before the current Development Consent Order is processed. The selection process for the preferred route is described in Highways England’s own document “A38 Derby Junctions Scheme Assessment Report (PCF Stage 2)” a copy of which is attached. See especially section 5. BPC’s comments below quote paragraph numbers from this report. Much of the same material is contained in the “6.1 Environmental Statement Chapter 3 -Scheme history and assessment of alternatives” submitted by HE as part of the DCO application In highway terms the obvious way to re-design the Little Eaton junction is to route the A38 to the north of the present junction. This is the shortest and most direct route for the A38, and this was indeed the basis for options 1 and 2 originally proposed by the HA in 2002 (See para 5.4.1). In 2003 HA held a public consultation exercise based on revised high-speed versions of options 1 and 2 and a new third option routed to the south of the present junction (See para 5.4.6). In 2004 HA decided “on balance” to support the third option which is the basis of the current scheme.

    Take Heart (Derby) A social support group for heart patients, their families and carers. www.takeheartderby.co.uk Registered Charity No 1163703 Newsletter September 2017 Lunch at The Bridge. This venue is one of our favourites, possibly because it is a two4one and we love to get value for money. I am not sure who the odd one out was but seventeen members and guests dined at The Bridge Inn, Duffield last month. There were two dissenting voices about the quality of food but for the remainder, well just look at the clean plates being taken back to the kitchen. Michael made his recommendation to those around him and it turned up trumps again. A juicy rib-eye steak was consumed with relish but there is an extensive menu available from which to choose. There was much amiable chatter during the meal, some confirming their holiday arrangements whilst others spoke of baby-sitting their grandchildren. Black Bra (as told by a woman). I had lunch with 2 of my unmarried friends. One is engaged, one is a mistress, and I have been married for 20+ years. We were chatting about our relationships and decided to amaze our men by greeting them at the door wearing a black bra, stiletto heels and a mask over our eyes. We agreed to meet in a few days to exchange notes. Here's how it all went ... My engaged friend: The other night when my boyfriend came over he found me with a black leather bodice, tall stilettos and a mask. He saw me and said, 'You are the woman of my dreams...I love you.' Then we made passionate love all night long.

As promised in the last volume of the Marriage Registers of Derbyshire, the marriage records of St. Alkmund's form the first instalment of the Registers of the County Town. The Editors do not doubt that these will prove especially interesting to Derbyshire people. In Volume V they hope to print further instalments of town registers in the shape of those of St. Michael's and also some village registers. It will be noticed that St. Alkmund's register begins at the earliest possible date, 1538, but of the remainder, two do not start till the seventeenth century and one, that of Quarndon, synchronizes with the passing of Lord Hardwicke's Marriage Act. 1379092 It will be convenient to give here a list of the Derby- shire parishes of which the Registers have been printed in this series: Volume I.

  • 2021 May-June
    GRAND TRUNK Barnton Slippage at Soot Hill See pp. 12/13 May/June 2021 www.trentandmerseycanalsociety.org.uk Chairman’s Bit As you can read on page 14, our canal has finally been reopened at Soot Hill near Anderton. We can personally report that passage both ways was easy, having just been though (and back) on a return cruise to Worsley. There are signs asking you to proceed at tick-over, a buoyed channel, and two CRT staff to explain why you need to be careful. The landslip is quite spectacular! Let us hope that the earth doesn’t move again, or there could be a renewed closure! On our return trip we were delayed deep within Barnton Tunnel. We were about half-way through when another boat came in towards us. Despite much honking (from both boats) we eventually stopped “bow to bow”. Apparently, they hadn’t seen that we were already in the tunnel! They were surprised to find that they couldn’t pass us inside the tunnel, and horrified to realise that they would have to reverse back out (as we were already ¾ of the way through). Ten minutes later (and in the open air) we politely said “Thank you”, they were full of apologies, and we parted without any hard feelings. Cheshire Lock working parties resumed in April, unfortunately without one stalwart (see page 17). It was great to be at work again, enjoying the open air, the sunshine and chatting to fellow workers (at the regulation Covid-19 distance of course!). Sorry that there is no news yet about our Winter Season of talks for 2021-22.
