Application Submitted By: Chris Flint Ass Ltd FAO Chris Flint On behalf of: Mr C Burt RDD: 26th June 2017 LDD: 15th September 2017 SUMMARY OF MAIN ISSUES The main issues in the determination of this application are as follows: Principle of the proposal Design and appearance Standard of living accommodation Impact on residential amenity Access and parking Ecology Impact on the Solent Special Protection Area Site and Proposal The application relates to the site of the former Brewers Arms public house, which is located on the west side of Milton Road, to the north of the junction with Priory Crescent. The site is occupied by a two-storey building on the Milton Road frontage, which has a mock Tudor design with a pitched roof. On the front of the building is a single-storey projection with a glazed lean-to style roof and to the rear there are a number of single-storey extensions and outbuildings, which previously formed ancillary accommodation and entertainment space for the public house. There is also a yard and garden area to the rear of the site, and there are trees adjacent to the southern boundary. There is vehicle access to the rear of the site from Milton Road, via a driveway which runs along the north side of the building. To the north of the site is a pair of semi-detached two-storey dwellings and to the south there is a mix of residential and commercial units which extend around the corner onto Priory Crescent. To the rear (west) of the site is a four-storey block of flats, which are accessed from Priory Crescent and have their main windows facing south. To the east of the site, on the opposite side of Milton Road, is a three-storey modern building in use as a vets at ground floor level with residential accommodation above, which was granted planning permission in 2011. Planning permission is sought for the construction of a three-storey building to form 9 flats after demolition of the existing buildings. The new building would be constructed on the eastern side of the site, fronting Milton Road and 8 car parking spaces would be provided to the rear, accessed via a driveway on the northern side of the site. Areas of grassed amenity space would also be provided to the front and rear of the building and adjacent to the parking area. 3 The plans have been amended throughout the course of the application process, following concerns raised about the design of the proposed building and the potential impact on neighbouring residents. The amendments can be summarised as follows: - amendment to the design of the elevations; - amendment to the rear elevation to set back part of the building at second floor level; - amendment to internal layout of Flat 9 (second floor), resulting in the loss of 1 bedroom; - amendments to the layout of the rear parking and amenity space, including removal of 1 parking space to facilitate vehicle turning. Following the above amendments, the scheme would comprise a total of 2 x 1-bedroom flats and 7 x 2-bedroom flats. Planning history 08/01008/ADV - display of various illuminated and non-illuminated signs to front and side elevation including 3 lanterns and 7 floodlights - consent 1 August 2008 07/00073/FUL - construction of lean-to over existing seating area - conditional permission 6 March 2007 A*17549/C - alterations to front elevation and erection of a single storey rear extension to form toilets - conditional permission 24 May 1978 A*17549/B - double sided illuminated box forecourt pole sign - conditional permission 27 October 1975 A*17549 - conversion of existing veranda into an extension to the bar - conditional permission 25 January 1952 Planning history for development at 253-255 Milton Road: 11/00131/FUL - Construction of 3 storey building to form 8 flats and Class D1 use on ground floor (after demolition of existing) (re-submission of 10/00734/FUL) - conditional permission 4 May 2011. POLICY CONTEXT The relevant policies within the Portsmouth Plan would include: PCS10 (Housing Delivery), PCS13 (A Greener Portsmouth), PCS15 (Sustainable design and construction), PCS17 (Transport), PCS19 (Housing mix,size and affordable homes), PCS21 (Housing Density), PCS23 (Design and Conservation), In addition to the aims and objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), the relevant policies within the Portsmouth Plan would include: PCS10 (Housing Delivery), PCS13 (A Greener Portsmouth), PCS15 (Sustainable design and construction), PCS17 (Transport), PCS19 (Housing mix,size and affordable homes), PCS21 (Housing Density), and PCS23 (Design and Conservation). CONSULTATIONS Highways Engineer Initial Observations 7/9/17 I have reviewed the Design and Access Statement and drawing submitted in support of this application proposing the demolition of buildings on the above site and erection of a new 3- storey building to form 8 two bedroom and 1 single bedroom flats with associated parking, refuse/cycle stores and landscaping. 4 I am satisfied that the trip generation likely to arise from this development is such that it would not have a material impact on the capacity of the local highway network and as a consequence I would not require a transport assessment to be provided in support of the proposal. The submitted drawing details the width of the access to Milton Road which is sufficient to allow a vehicle accessing the site to pass one waiting to exit as will be required to avoid a vehicle standing in the carriageway obstructing the free flow of traffic should conflicts arise at this access. Adequate visibility is available for vehicles to access the carriageway from the access which is positioned to provide visibility splays of 2m by 2m on either side of the access measured from the edge of the footway to ensure that drivers are able to see pedestrians when emerging. The supplementary planning guidance published July 2014 establishes the parking provision requirement for residential development. The standard relevant to this proposed development, which does not fall within the zone where a relaxation of the standard maybe considered, is 1.5 vehicle parking spaces per dwelling for the 2 bedroomed flats together with 2 cycle parking spaces and 1 vehicle parking space for the single bed flat with 2 cycle parking spaces plus 10% for visitors. This equates to a requirement of 14.3 vehicle parking spaces and 18 long stay cycle parking spaces supported with 2 short stay cycle parking spaces. Whilst adequate cycle parking is proposed on site only 9 vehicle parking spaces are shown on the submitted drawing. I am not satisfied that there is sufficient space on street to accommodate this shortfall and I am concerned that those spaces proposed at the end of the aisle on the western site boundary do not allow for vehicles to turn and so enter and leave the public highway in a forward gear.

  • War Memorials in the Cerne Valley Is a Summary of What Is Known About Them
    The following information about the men named on the war memorials in the Cerne Valley is a summary of what is known about them. If you would like more details about any of them, please contact the Cerne Historical Society. CERNE ABBAS AND UPCERNE GREAT WAR OF 1914 TO 1918 There are 14 Cerne Abbas men who died in the Great War and one from UpCerne. Most were in their 20s. The three killed in 1914 were among the Regulars who sustained enormous casualties in containing the German advance and gave the vital time necessary for Britain and its Allies to mobilise for the struggle ahead. Local people remember being told by their fathers that there was a general exodus of young men marching into Dorchester and Sherborne to join the colours following the Declaration of War on 4 August 1914. Edward Henry Young Edward joined the 1st Battalion Dorsetshire Regiment in 1904. He lived in part of what is now 38 Long Street, Cerne Abbas (The Crown). His father was a Thatcher. The 1st Battalion was in Ulster at the outbreak of the war, but moved immediately to the front in Belgium and fought at the 1st Battle of Mons and at Le Cateau in the subsequent retreat. He was killed in The Battle of the Aisne on 16th September 1914 aged 27 and has no known grave. He is commemorated on the La Ferte-sous-Jouarre Memorial in Seine-et-Marne. Horace Collier Horace’s family lived in what is now 6 Abbey Street and in Back Lane, Cerne Abbas.

CENTURY STYLE A review by Roy Andrews Regular visiting speaker Dr. Cheryl Butler produced another well researched talk at the November meeting based around the defences of Southampton. Prior to 1338, the town was defended on the two landward sides by a stone wall and double ditch but nothing on the two seaward sides. Consequently, in that year, and to launch the start of what became known as the 100 Years’ War, a fleet led by the French attacked the town from the sea and it took three days for the population to drive them off.

COMPILED BY Lieut.-Colonel Sir ARTHUR LEETHAM, F.S.A. (Curator). FOURTH EDITION. Printed for the Council of THE ROYAL UNITED SERVICE INSTITUTION by J. J. KELIHER & Co., LIMITED, Craven House, Kingsway, and Marshalsea Works, Southwark. 1914 PRICE ONE SHILLING. to Ufa PREFACE.131* In the Compilation of this Catalogue I have endeavoured to provide, in as concise a form as possible, a book which will be of general historical interest to the many thousands of Visitors who annually come to see the Museum. Having regard to the nature of the Museum (especially the vast field of Naval and Military History which it covers), the limited space, and the consequent necessity of having at times to' remove certain objects in order to exhibit others, it was found quite impos- sible to classify the numerous exhibits under groups or collections : but the index, which has been added, is of an exhaustive nature and will assist the Visitor in readily finding the objects of special interest. I would point out that the value of a work of this kind lies in its accuracy, and should any mistakes have crept into its pages in the course of compilation and printing, I hope they will be pointed out to me, that they may be rectified in future editions. In the first edition of this Catalogue I was greatly indebted to the assistance which I received from Mr.
