  • Colwich Neighbourhood Plan
    Colwich Neighbourhood Plan 1 Colwich Neighbourhood Plan Foreword, Welcome on behalf of Colwich Parish Council to the plan for the future of Colwich & the Haywoods Work on this Neighbourhood Plan commenced following an opportunity offered in the Government’s Localism proposals in early 2011. To achieve its completion has taken considerable effort, and is no small achievement. This Plan has been generated from a wide variety of surveys and consultation events including public meetings with residents and other stakeholders, businesses, landowners and developers. Throughout its preparation, we have kept all parties informed through meetings, the Parish web-site, Social Media and the Parish Newsletter. Much of the work behind this plan has been carried out on a voluntarily basis by Colwich Parish Council’s Neighbourhood Plan committee, complimented by a number of residents who were co-opted to bring additional expertise and experience. Additional support and assistance has been provided by officers of Stafford Borough Council, Planning Aid and the Staffordshire Wildlife Trust. Although we have enlisted the help of a paid administrator, we have been determined to complete as much as possible of the plan by ourselves so that we can say it has been prepared by and for the people who live and work in the Parish of Colwich. This Plan now describes the desires, hopes and aspirations of the majority of Parish residents and stakeholders for the Parish through to 2031. We will take the opportunity to review the plan every 5 years or so to ensure that circumstances and events haven’t demanded that some aspects require reconsideration.

It should be noted that the information and any recommendations contained within this appendix is subject to amendment should any new information become available. For further information regarding the Historic Environment Record (HER); Historic Landscape Characterisation (HLC) and designated sites please contact: Cultural Environment Team Environment & Countryside Development Services Directorate Staffordshire County Council Riverway Stafford ST16 3TJ Tel: 01785 277281/277285/277290 Email: [email protected] Staffordshire County Council July 2009 1 Historic Environment Character Area (HECA) 13g Introduction This document forms an overview of the HECA which specifically addresses the potential impact of medium to large scale development upon the historic environment. There are areas of surviving post medieval field systems, which were created out of the earlier medieval open fields that were worked by the local inhabitants within the HECA. The arable nature of the medieval landscape is associated with the villages of Great Haywood, Little Haywood, Colwich and Colton. Other smaller settlements were also established, including those which have since either shrunk, as at Moreton, or been removed from the landscape, as the village at Shugborough was in the 17th and 18th centuries. Historic farmsteads are also scattered across the landscape, although several survive within the villages and hamlets. The landscape to the west of the HECA is dominated by the well preserved landscape park at Shugborough, which is designated as a Grade I Registered Park and Garden.

    ARCHIVAL RESEARCH: FINAL REPORT ANDREW SARGENT, KEELE UNIVERSITY 2018 (Women collecting firewood on Cannock Chase, 1896) The Chase Through Time: Archival Research Final Report Andrew Sargent CONTENTS Aims and Objectives 2 Introduction: Defining the Chase 3 Demographic History 11 Landscape History 17 Social history 30 Conclusion 32 Bibliography 33 1 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The primary aim of the original brief for the Chase Through Time archival research strand was as follows: ‘To develop an understanding of man’s influence on the development of the Cannock Chase landscape between 1600 and 1970 to answer the question ‘By 1950 why did the Chase look like it did?’’1 This was refined to include the following objectives: To investigate the impact of land management for hunting and other amenity purposes (i.e. deer/grouse hunting, walks/rides, picnic sites/viewpoints) upon the Cannock Chase landscape. To investigate evidence for the construction/maintenance of wood banks and hollow ways across Cannock Chase. To investigate the development of agricultural practices on the fringes of Cannock Chase and consider how and why such activities took place (whether legal or illegal). Allied to this is the development of farm infrastructure (field systems, farm complexes, roads, lanes and hollow ways) and the historical process of enclosure across this landscape.2 An analysis of the resources at Staffordshire Record Office was undertaken, and several sets of records were identified as targets for the volunteer-based research sessions, which were held nearly every Wednesday, 10am-12 noon, at the Staffordshire Record Office, from the end of October 2016 to mid-December 2017.
