It should be read in conjunction with the Planning Application Design and Access Statement (October 2009), prepared by John McCall Architects and attached to this application. LOCATION OF THE DEVELOPMENT Bugsworth Canal Basin, Buxworth, Derbyshire. Scheduled Monument Number: 242 – see Appendix 1 for SAM Citation. DATE OF PREPARATION 19 th October 2009 APPLICANT British Waterways STATEMENT PREPARED BY Andrew Tegg BA(Hons) DipTP DipBldgsCons MRTPI, IHBC Heritage Advisor, British Waterways, Waterside House, Waterside Drive, Wigan, WN3 5AZ. Telephone – 07920 825690, Fax – 01942 405710, e-mail – [email protected] Much of the information within this statement is taken from previous research undertaken by IWPS over the period of their restoration of the site. Their knowledge and assistance has proven invaluable within the preparation of this document. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND TO THE SITE Bugsworth Canal Basin can rightly be considered as one of the most important industrial heritage sites in the United Kingdom, although this significance can also to assessed on an international basis. However when assessing the significance of the site, an important consideration to make initially is to emphasise that the Basin is an entirely man made resource which has been imposed on the River Blackbrook valley landscape. Between 1794 and c.1870, Bugsworth Basin developed from a small canal-head wharf into a full scale transhipment port through the construction of a series of additional channels, wharves and lime kilns, combined with the continuing development of the Peak Forest Tramway to satisfy the increasing industrial demand for limestone, gritstone and lime.

In this pack you should find sufficient information to enable you to settle into the area, find out about the facilities on offer, and details of many of the clubs and societies. If specific information about your particular interest or need is not shown, then pop into the Town Hall Information Point and ask there. If they don't know the answer, they usually know someone who does! The Parish Council produces a quarterly Newsletter which is available from the Town Hall or the Post Office. Chapel is a small friendly town with a long history, in a beautiful location, almost surrounded by the Peak District National Park. It's about 800 feet above sea level, and its neighbour, Dove Holes, is about 1000 feet above, so while the weather can be sometimes wild, on good days its situation is magnificent. The Parish Council takes pride in maintaining the facilities it directly controls, and ensures that as far as possible, the other Councils who provide many of the local services - High Peak Borough Council (HPBC) and Derbyshire County Council (DCC) also serve the area well.

What other town in the region has more to offer than Marple? We cannot think of one that can boast two railway stations, its own theatre, a cinema, swimming pool, bustling pubs, café bars and restaurants (and even two brass bands). Add to that its countryside setting (5,000 of Marple’s 7,000 acres are in the Green Belt), the network of picturesque canals and its huge variety of independent shops and we believe we have something special to shout about.” However, the Marple Civic Society and many other local stakeholders and members of the community believe that Marple could and should be improved even further. Many places of interest in Marple are under-exploited and need developing for tourism, recreation and community purposes. The town was very much shaped by 18th century entrepreneurs Samuel Oldknow and Richard Arkwright. During this time Oldknow changed the face of Marple beyond all recognition, being the chief architect and driving force in the development and industrialisation of the area.

  • Chinley, Buxworth and Brownside Parish Statement (Draft)
    Chinley, Buxworth and Brownside Parish Statement (draft) The parish of Chinley, Buxworth and Brownside is located at the western edge of the Dark Peak landscape area of the Peak District National Park. In terms of area, approximately half of the parish is within the National Park, although it is worth noting the majority of development and population of the parish are outside of the National Park boundary. Chinley and Buxworth are the main settlements which are located to the north of the A6 road, outside the National Park. Historically, Chinley was a Anglo-Saxon settlement of scattered farmsteads. During the 17th century the local area was mined and quarried and consequently Chinley’s population grew. These local industries developed further following the building of the Peak Forest Canal and tramway in 1799 and again when the railway came in 1866. The addition of a passenger line in 1894 saw further population growth. However, the closures of the mines and quarry in the early 20th century saw the population decline. It declined further following WWII when the passenger service was reduced, however in recent years there has been a significant amount of new housing development in proximity of the parish and the area has become a very popular commuting area. Further development is also anticipated soon. New businesses have opened recently in the food and beverage, accommodation and childcare sectors. The area is a popular walking, cycling and horse-riding area with the Peak Forest Tramway Trail and Bugsworth Basin also popular attractions. Source: thanks to Chinley, Buxworth and Brownside Parish Council The parish straddles three landscape character areas within the Dark Peak; valley pastures with industry, enclosed gritstone upland and moorland hills and ridge as described in the Landscape Strategy (LSAP 2009).

The basin incorporates the terminal interchange between the Peak Forest Canal and its associated tramway and was once a thriving industrial centre for the transhipment of over six hundred tonnes of limestone, gritstone and lime per day - aswell as comprising a localised centre for the production of burnt lime. The Basin complex contains many structural and artifactual features that are almost, if not completely unique to the British Inland Waterways Network. The Peak Forest Tramway (the connecting flow lines of which traverse the entire Basin complex), opened in 1796, and was certainly one of the very early mineral railways to service a British Inland Waterways based transport system, and ranks amongst the earliest Derbyshire railways to have been fitted with iron rails.

  • Industrial Archaeology Studies in England
    Engineering Field Experience: Industrial Archaeology Studies in England Harriet Svec, Harvey Svec, Teresa Hall, William Martin Whalley South Dakota State University / Manchester Metropolitan University The practice of engineering could be described as a nascent profession when contrasted with medicine, law, academia, politics or the clergy. Engineering as a career emerged as recently as the 1800s as an outcome of newly created industry-based economies. Today the engineering profession is well established, respected, and contributes to the greater benefit of society. Bringing science, technology and creativity together, engineers conceive solutions to problems, develop new designs for products, and generate new wealth through the resultant economic activity derived from manufacturing, construction, medicine, agriculture or other industries. The variety of disciplines under the engineering descriptor continues to grow as technology becomes more advanced and complex, always looking to the future and the next new idea and its application. Yet, few students in engineering and related technology programs are given the opportunity to explore and gain understanding from the historical events upon which modern engineering practice was built. To this end, faculty members at South Dakota State University and Manchester Metropolitan University have collaborated to offer an Industrial Archaeology study abroad experience based out of Manchester England, the epicenter of modern engineering application: the Industrial Revolution. The Need for Engineering Archaeological Field Sites Natural science and social science disciplines such as biology, anthropology and archaeology have valued the traditional field site as significant to building the body of knowledge in their specialty. Faculty and students work together at these field sites to gather data, catalog artifacts or observations, and disseminate results through publications, presentations, and the curriculum.
