Tydd St Giles Parish Council Page 4 of 4 Agenda 18th October 2018 Fenland Neighbourhood Policing Team Monthly Review

Report for July 2018 Geographical Area’s covered in this report: , , GOREFIELD, , NEWTON-IN-THE-ISLE, TYDD ST GILES, CHRISTCHURCH, , ELM, FRIDAY BRIDGE, . Team Priorities over the month: 1. Targeted patrols and engagement with the Spinney Adventure Playground – This centres around continued Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) and criminal damage offences.

2. Targeted patrols in the Medworth/Hill/Clarkson due to persistent anti-social behaviour.

3. Continued work on Child Criminal Exploitation (CCE) - persons under 18 drug dealing, and Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE).

Incidents / crimes of interest: Reports of nuisance off road motorbikes in the areas of Murrow Bank, , Hazel Gardens and Meadowgate Lane. 3 dwelling burglaries and 1 business burglary. 2 theft of motor vehicle. Fatal Road traffic collision. Persons reported to be sleeping in a church in Wisbech.

Engagements: Schools visited by the NPT: , NOVA, Trinity School, Ontrack, Meadowgate, Nene Infants, Elm Road Primary, Friday Bridge, Wisbech St.Mary CofE, Alderman Payne Primary, Kinderley Primary, Townley Primary, Guyhirn CodE, Gorefield Primary Murrow Primary. Care Homes visited by the NPT: Murrow house, Chartwell House, Norwich Road Staithe.

Team Activity: Medworth, Clarkson and Hill wards have had daily targeted patrols across the whole wards. Attention has been given to the PSPO areas and open spaces during Pcso patrols. A PCSO saw a cycle theft in progress, and police officers successfully located the offender and recovered the cycle. The suspect has been dealt with. A dispersal order was been put in place in Wisbech in order to reduce anti-social behaviour, from 26th July through to 28th July 2pm – 2am. There was no antisocial behaviour reported to us during this period. Rural patrols have taken place to seek out those using off road motorcycles causing a nuisance. There has been ongoing work with Clarion housing to address the issues of ASB and rough sleeping in the stairwells of flats. On 20th July a dispersal order was put In place for West street – one dispersal was issued to a person believed to be involved in antisocial behaviour. Two interviews have taken place with youths who have caused damage to the spinney play park. There are two more to follow. PCSO contact point at Tesco. Officers and Pcso’s were in the town conducting high visibility patrols during the Rose fair. During which officers engaged with a group of youths on pedal cycles who had been causing disruption during the parade.

Comments from Sgt Levens: The school holidays bring with them an increase in youth related Anti-social behaviour. That increase has so far been minimal but noticeable and that is why targeted patrols will continue. This report is a snapshot of the work of your Neighbourhood Policing Tea. By the sensitive nature of some of the work my team and the wider police service undertakes, I cannot include everything that we do on this report. Priority three for example, is likely to remain on future reports but is not likely to have further detail about it in the content of future reports. If I still witness a lot of negativity on our social media pages with people making reference to particular areas of the district receiving more coverage than others. The fact remains that all areas of the district receive coverage every month. Just because my team hasn’t been seen, it does not mean we haven’t been there. That said, there has to be an evidence base for targeted patrols, so my team will spend targeted time in areas where there is Threat, Risk or Harm. Our corporate communications team are conducting a social media review. The likely outcome is that all the Policing pages for the Fenland district will merge. This will enable a more consistent approach to our social media messaging across the district. On 16th July a fatal road traffic collision involving a 10 year old on his way to school occurred outside crown packaging. The impact of incidents like this is far reaching in any community. My condolences and thoughts are with the family and all those affected. The ‘[email protected]’ email address has been removed from the police systems and all new reports of incidents should be called through to 101 or utilise the online reporting tools on the force website www.cambs.police.uk/report. Any non-urgent information can be sent through to our individual email addresses. If you have any direct questions for me then I am a contactable via email: [email protected] . Please do not use this email to report incidents or crimes.

Fenland Neighbourhood Policing Team Monthly Review

Month in review: August 2018 Geographical Area’s covered in this report: WISBECH, LEVERINGTON, GOREFIELD, PARSON DROVE, NEWTON-IN-THE-ISLE, TYDD ST GILES, CHRISTCHURCH, GUYHIRN, ELM, FRIDAY BRIDGE, WISBECH ST MARY. Team Priorities over the month: 1. Targeted patrols in St Peters and St Pauls Church due to reports of rough sleepers using the church as a toilet and a place to smokepews to sleep/urinate/defecate on.

2. Targeted patrols in the Medworth/Hill/Clarkson.

3. Continued work on Child Criminal Exploitation (CCE) - persons under 18 drug dealing, and Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE).

4. Persistent ASB Spinney Play park

Incidents / crimes of interest: During the month of August, there were several reports of vehicles being damaged over a series of nights in Wisbech. Investigations are currently pending forensic analysisinto these are ongoing. There have been two unrelated business burglaries in Wisbech, where high value large quantities of goods have been stolen. One of these a suspect was caught leaving the premises and was arrested – not believed linkedEnquiries are ongoing. There have been five residentialTwo burglaries with no consistent theme. One, one distraction burglary, two business burglaries, two theft from motor vehicles and a robbery in Wisbech Town Park.

Engagements:

Care Homes visited by the NPT: Murrow house, Chartwell House, Old School House, Victoria Road and Queens Road.

Team Activity: Two suspects were arrested in connection with a dwelling burglary. Four juveniles are being dealt with by NPT for criminal damage to the Pavilion caused in the Spinney play park. Targeted patrols in the Spinney have significantly reduced the calls for service and ASB at the location. The team have dealt with a number of Missing Persons. Medworth, Clarkson and Hill wards have had daily targeted patrols, concentrating on St Peters and St Pauls Church, Church Mews and West Street following reports of ASB.

Comments from Sgt Levens: Throughout August the focus of the Constables and I on the Neighbourhood Policing Team has been a high harm individual. A lot of hours have gone into hunting this evasive individual and I am pleased to say he is currently remanded in Prison pending future court dates. This case was related to CSE of one particular victim. This all I can say about this particular case for now so as not to be prejudicial to any future investigation/court proceedings. We have seen a distraction burglary this month where an elderly resident was targeted by a male advising she had a loose roof tile. This distraction method allowed another to enter. Distraction burglars will often be at least in a group of two persons, one will keep the victim occupied whilst the other looks around the premises for money and jewellery. Distraction burglars are known to prey on the vulnerable. Unkempt properties and those with unkempt gardens are often targeted, as are those properties which have clear indicators of being lived in by vulnerable) residents. (i.e ramps and large handles next to doorways). A small reminder of keeping an eye for our vulnerable neighbours. A comment on the Wisbech Discussion Forum sparked some interest regarding the issuing of parking tickets. The poster pointed out that the Police ticketed them a little after 8am on a Sunday morning and felt parking was dealt with inconsistently in Wisbech. Firstly on that subject, thank you to the councillors who resolved the issue of the poorly marked bays. The bays as they were, in a poorly marked state, had been an issue causing many appeals against tickets to be subsequently won. As I have mentioned many times, our team workload is based on Threat, Harm and Risk. My Police Community Support officers will deal with parking infringements as and when they see the issues in front of them, but they are not directed to focus on this as an issue. Other comments mention the Police just driving past and ignoring parking infringements. As a general rule, Response Police officers are focused on call demand, not all of these are immediate graded calls, and they have crimes and enquiries relating to those to manage around calls for service. The message from my team as the Neighbourhood Policing Team, If WE (NPT) see it, we will deal with it. Whilst there have been sporadic calls regarding off road motorbikes across Wisbech and the rurals, there has been persistent ASB in Waterlees ward with young adults riding motorbikes with no helmets and no registration plates. The team are aware and will be looking into this further. Any information regarding this from our local councillors would be helpful in identifying the perpetrators. On my rest days I was saddened to read that a lot of the hard work that had gone into the Castle grounds had been undone by mindless vandals. My understanding is that some items potentially of forensic value have been recovered by scenes of crime. I have no further update in respect of this right now. Again I would urge anyone with even the smallest bit of information to come forward quoting 35/26935/18. The Corporate Communications department are having a few technical glitches merging our social media accounts to one account (facebook) this was due to have taken place on 3rd September. This is still due to happen imminently. If you meet with residents about issues that are likely to require Police contact, could you please advise residents not to message via facebook but to use the online reporting tools. The above is a small snippet of the work undertaken by the NPT. Lastly from me, the Constabulary has continued its commitment to Neighbourhood Policing. For many years Neighbourhood Policing has had two Constables for Wisbech and the villages. In the coming months we will have an additional two Constables based at Wisbech NPT I will be able to report more when the dates are confirmed.

Fenland Neighbourhood Policing Team Monthly Review

Month in review: September 2018 Geographical Area’s covered in this report: WISBECH, LEVERINGTON, GOREFIELD, PARSON DROVE, NEWTON-IN-THE-ISLE, TYDD ST GILES, CHRISTCHURCH, GUYHIRN, ELM, FRIDAY BRIDGE, WISBECH ST MARY. Team Priorities over the month: 1. Targeted patrols in St Peters and St Pauls Church due to reports of rough sleepers using the church as a toilet and a place to smoke.

2. Targeted patrols in the Waterlees area due to reports of off road bikes being ridden without helmets.

3. Continued work on Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) and drugs.

Incidents / crimes of interest: During the month of September, there were several reports of off road motorbikes being ridden by riders without helmets or number plates in the Waterlees area of Wisbech. There have been three unrelated business burglaries in Wisbech, one where a suspect was caught leaving the scene and arrested. Enquiries are ongoing. There have been three residential burglaries with no evidence to suggest they are linked. , One vehicle taken without consent, one theft of motor vehicle, two sexual assaults (One historical). Two robberies in the Waterlees area.

Care Homes visited by the NPT: Shelldene House, Begdale House, Murrow House, Chartwell House, Cherry Road, Staithe.

Team Activity: Medworth, Clarkson and Hill wards have had daily targeted patrols, concentrating on St Peters and St Pauls Church, Church Mews and West Street following reports of ASB. Homeless have been asked to leave St Peters & St Pauls Church when found sleeping inside. After targeted patrols by NPT at the Spinney play area, the ASB issues have been resolved. NPT have been working in partnership with housing to assist with a problem tenant who was causing ASB. The tenant has now been successfully evicted by housing. We have been dealing with a long term neighbourhood issue, and are currently working alongside multiple agencies, some across the border in , to help resolve the issue. Work is ongoing with regular patrols and visits to residents in the neighbourhood. The team have been carrying out targeted patrols in marked and unmarked vehicles in the Waterlees area after numerous reports form residents regarding off road bikes being ridden. The riders are not wearing helmets, or riding road legal bikes. This riding of these bikes is considered to be dangerous, and we are encouraging residents to report this to us with as much information as they can so that we are able to deal with it. PCSO’s have visited the following schools during September; TCA, , Cambian, Nova, Trinity, Ontrack, Meadowgate Academy, Peckover, Nene & Ramnoth, Clarkson, St. Peters, Elm, Kinderley, Townley, Guyhirn and Gorefield.

Comments from Sgt Levens: I hope our September report finds you well. Last month I alluded to some news regarding the Neighbourhood Policing Team at Wisbech. I am able to tell you that the force has invested in Neighbourhood Policing bringing an extra two Constables to the NPT at Wisbech from next week and an extra three at March. This is a significant uplift in our NPT resources. Two new officers transferring to the team have a proven track record and experience In response policing, whilst three are new officers arriving having been through the ‘Police Now’ selection and training process and will be tutored in post. These are in addition to the Response Team and Investigators based across the Northern Division. The Wisbech based officers are: Pc Mcilwhan, Ppc Jones, Pc Arnold and Ppc Stevens. At present the officers will not be allocated specific areas but will be responsible for all geographical areas that this report refers to. I have training planned in October for all Fenland Neighbourhood Constables on the use of laser speed measuring devices. This will mean that where there are periods of a lesser demand on my Neighbourhood officers, they will have the freedom to conduct checks across the district. This can not mean they are out every day conducting speed enforcement. Experience tells us that perception of speed and actual speed are very different. Certain local authority speed measuring devices, and the downloads of these (not speed cameras) tell us this is the case. All villages and areas across the town will be visited by the team, and have been already by those officers already trained. I have directed that there will be more consistency around community engagement. Initially co-ordinated by Pcso Russ, this will be Wisbech town monthly (advertised in advance) and two villages per month. This will mean that not every village gets a community engagement per month but it will mean that community engagements will start to take place rurally. That said, all of the villages are visited weekly by my team. Aside from those engagements, Sgt Lugg and I will seek to conduct an online Q+A engagement for an hour per month to reach those who want to ask questions and couldn’t make our engagements due to work or other commitments. This month we have supported secondary schools in the delivery of ‘tough love’ funded by FDC. This production was to make students aware of abusive relationships and to help them identify controlling and coercive behaviour. I am hoping you will have seen an increase in the social media output from the Policing Fenland (facebook) and Fencops (twitter). These updates will mainly come from Response policing and Fenland NPT. Children causing havoc on cycles. A consistent theme across Wisbech at the moment. My team will be engaging with the schools to educate them, and those found will be dealt with accordingly. There is also the issue of off-road motorcycles still. Another consistent theme across the district. The reports are of nuisance motorbikes on fields in the rural villages and worryingly all over Waterlees with no helmets on across roads and footpaths. Pcso’s and Pc’s have spent a significant amount of time in both areas and have been unsuccessful in locating the offenders. I know it is still going on because I see the incidents in my review of the preceding 24 hours. If your residents have any information as to who these individuals are please do let me know. If your village hasn’t been mentioned in this report, It doesn’t mean we have forgotten you or that we haven’t been there, our patrols continue across all areas, and some more intensively so based on risk. Should you have any particular issues of risk then please feel free to email, where I am not in a position to answer I may forward your email to one of my Constables. Kindest regards, Lee Sergeant 1082 Lee Levens Fenland Neighbourhood Policing Team.

Appeal Decision Site visit made on 25 June 2018 by D. M. Young BSc (Hons) MA MRTPI MIHE an Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State Decision date: 2 August 2018

Appeal Ref: APP/D0515/W/18/3192582 Land north of The Gables, High Broadgate, Tydd St Giles, Cambridgeshire PE13 5LS.  The appeal is made under section 78 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 against a refusal to grant outline planning permission.  The appeal is made by Mr Sean Curson against the decision of Fenland District Council.  The application Ref F/YR17/0967/O, dated 11 October 2017, was refused by notice dated 5 December 2017.  The development proposed is single building plot for a 2-storey detached dwelling.

Decision

1. The appeal is allowed and planning permission is granted for a single building plot for a 2-storey detached dwelling at land north of The Gables, High Broadgate, Tydd St Giles, Cambridgeshire PE13 5LS in accordance with the terms of the application, Ref F/YR17/0967/O, dated 11 October 2017, subject to the following conditions: 1) Details of the access, appearance, landscaping, layout, and scale, (hereinafter called "the reserved matters") shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority before any development takes place and the development shall be carried out as approved. 2) Application for approval of the reserved matters shall be made to the local planning authority not later than 3 years from the date of this permission. 3) The development hereby permitted shall take place not later than 2 years from the date of approval of the last of the reserved matters to be approved. 4) The development permitted by this planning permission shall be carried out in accordance with the approved Flood Risk Assessment dated October 2017, reference GCB/Humphrey as prepared by Geoff Beel Consultancy and the following mitigation measures detailed within the FRA.

- Finished floor levels are to be 300mm above existing High Broadgate carriageway level - Flood resilient construction for 300mm above finished floor levels - No sleeping accommodation at ground floor level

https://www.gov.uk/planning-inspectorate Appeal Decision APP/D0515/W/18/3192582

Preliminary Matters

2. The application was submitted in outline, with all matters reserved for future approval. I have dealt with the appeal on that basis, treating the site plan as illustrative.

Main Issue

3. This is the effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the area.

Reasons

4. The appeal site comprises the garden to Foxs Barn which has the distinction of being the last house as one exits Tydd St Giles. To the east of Foxs Barn, there is a marked transition from village to open countryside. The site is enclosed by a post and rail fence and hedging. Currently it has considerable visual exposure from the roadside. It is mainly laid to grass and contains several mature trees which help to sustain the area’s verdant character. Despite that it bears all the hallmarks of a residential garden and reads as part of the village. I do not therefore accept the proposition that the appeal site is in the countryside.

5. The illustrative plan shows how the site might be developed with the dwelling sited in the southern half of the site adjacent to 77 High Broadgate. It would thus appear as a logical extension to the High Broadgate street scene. The indicative plot size and footprint would not be dissimilar to those dwellings to the south. Although there would be some loss of openness near the village edge, it would be possible to develop the site in a manner that retains the trees and garden adjacent to the roadside thus safeguarding the ‘visual relief’ provided by the site.

6. The Council argue that the dwelling would sit proud of its neighbours. However, ‘layout’ is a reserved matter and therefore this ought not to have been a basis on which planning permission was refused. Notwithstanding that somewhat fundamental issue, the area does not possess a strong or uniform front building line and the siting shown on the illustrative plan would be entirely consistent with the set-back of most properties to the south and certainly the approved dwellings opposite1. The exception would be No 77. However, that property is itself set-back more than any of the other dwelling along High Broadgate.

7. In terms of the growth of the village, the site plan shows the location of other approved developments in the immediate vicinity. Directly opposite the appeal site is an approved scheme for 4 dwellings with a separate scheme for 7 dwellings to the north Villa Avril2. Although I do not know the exact circumstances of these developments or whether the planning permissions are even extant, they do demonstrate that the Council has accepted that a degree of change and loss of openness within the village is inevitable.

8. Based on the foregoing, I am satisfied that the development would not cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area. Accordingly, there would be no conflict with Policy LP12 of the “Fenland Local Plan 2014” or

1 LPA ref: F/YR09/0778/F 2 LPA ref: F/YR07/0916/F https://www.gov.uk/planning-inspectorate 2 Appeal Decision APP/D0515/W/18/3192582

the “National Planning Policy Framework”. Collectively these seek high quality design that adds to the overall quality of an area and is in keeping with the core shape and form of a settlement.

Conditions

9. In terms of the conditions, those suggested by the Council covering time limits and the submission and approval of the reserved matters, are necessary in the interests of proper planning. Condition 4 is necessary in the interests of flood prevention.

Conclusion

10. For the reasons given above and taking into account all other matters raised, I conclude that the appeal should succeed.
