It is multi-vallate with an enclosed area of c.10ha and lies just within Surrey, close to the present county boundary with Kent, and with that of East Sussex about 1 mile to the south (figure 1). The hill is at the end of a ridge of Ardingley Sandstone with Grinstead Clay to the north-west and Wadhurst Clay to the south-east. Grinstead, Wadhurst and Weald Clay all contain bands of clay ironstone potentially available for iron production. Also found in Weald Clay are thin (5cm) bands of ‘Cyrena’ limestone, a fossiliferous stone formed and deposited in deep-water conditions during the Cretaceous period.

  • Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership
    Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership ‘Call for Evidence’ Response to Gloucestershire’s Local Industrial Strategy Page 1 of 54 Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership Local Nature Partnerships (LNPs) were formed as part of the government’s 2011 white paper “The Natural Choice: Securing the value of nature”1. As part of a framework to strengthen local action to achieve the recovery of nature, LNPs were tasked to raise awareness about the vital services and benefits that a healthy natural environment brings for people, communities and the local economy. LNPs were to contribute to the green economy and complement Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs), of which there is an expectation from government for LNPs and LEPs to form strong links that capture the value of nature. Here in Gloucestershire, the LNP is formed of over 30 organisations from public, private and third sector bodies from across the county, all working together as an informal partnership to recognise the importance of embedding nature's value in local decisions for the benefit of the nature, people and the economy. The GLNP Mission is to champion the essential role of Gloucestershire’s natural environment in sustaining a vibrant, healthy, prosperous economy and society. With a Vision of a healthy and valued natural environment, sustaining the economy and wellbeing of Gloucestershire. Our partnership provides a strong and innovative voice for the environment sector and is seen as a key partner in helping deliver the Gloucestershire County Council’s Strategy 2019-20222. We benefit from a solid working relationship with GFirst LEP, as well as all the District Councils.

  • Decision Document
    Environment Agency permitting decisions Bespoke permit We have decided to grant the permit for Clearwell Farm operated by Mr Jonathan Hay. The permit number is EPR/WP3034VF This was applied for and determined as a new bespoke application. The application was duly made on 08/08/2014. We consider in reaching that decision we have taken into account all relevant considerations and legal requirements and that the permit will ensure that the appropriate level of environmental protection is provided. Purpose of this document This decision document: • explains how the application has been determined • provides a record of the decision-making process • shows how all relevant factors have been taken into account • justifies the specific conditions in the permit other than those in our generic permit template. Unless the decision document specifies otherwise we have accepted the applicant’s proposals. Structure of this document • Key issues: Ammonia Emissions; Industrial Emissions Directive (IED); Groundwater/Soil Monitoring; Odour management • Annex 1 the decision checklist • Annex 2 the consultation and web publicising responses EPR/WP3034VF/A001 Issued 06/11/14 Page 1 of 13 Key issues of the decision Ammonia Emissions There are four European designated sites located within ten kilometres, sixteen Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) located within five kilometres, seven Local Wildlife Sites (LWS) and ten Ancient Woodlands (AW) located within two kilometres of the installation. Ammonia Assessment – SAC / SPA / Ramsar sites The following trigger thresholds have been applied for assessment of European sites including Ramsar sites: • if the process contribution (PC) is below 4% of the relevant critical level (CLe) or critical load (CLo) then the farm can be permitted with no further assessment; • where this threshold is exceeded an assessment alone and in combination is required; • an overlapping in combination assessment will be completed where existing farms are identified within 10 km of the habitat site.

  • The Habitat and Origin of Lead Ore in Grebe Swallet Mine, Charterhouse-On-Mendip, Somerset
    Proc. Univ. BrisU)l Spelaeol. Sac, 199! 19 (I), 43-65 THE HABITAT AND ORIGIN OF LEAD ORE IN GREBE SWALLET MINE, CHARTERHOUSE-ON-MENDIP, SOMERSET by W.I. STANTON ABSTRACT Undisturbed deposits of lead ore were found when Grebe Swallet, an old mine at Charterhouse, was reopened in 1982. Abraded lumps of galena are present in a variety of sedimentary matrices filling voids in the Carboniferous Limestone. The deposits arc residual orebodies derived from primary galena veins that once existed al levels above the present limestone plateau of the Mendip Hills. Formed in association with neplunian dykes, the primary lead veins were fragmented and concentrated as the plateau surface was lowered 90 metres or more by dissolution over a very long period of time. Il is argued that all the lead orefields of the Mendip high plateau arc likely to have consisted of secondary residual deposits similar to those at Charterhouse. INTRODUCTION In AD 49, within 6 years of their occupation of Britain, the Romans were exporting lead from Charterhouse, and it is assumed that they took over mines that had long been worked by the native Britons (Gough, 1967, p. 19). The mines were probably shallow surface workings that developed into what are now the Charterhouse and Ubley Rakes (Stanton and Clarke, 1984; Stanton, 1985). The ore, concentrated in a shallow residual deposit, would have been easily won, which accords with Pliny's observation that in Roman Britain lead ore "was found at the surface of the ground so abundantly that a law was spontaneously passed to limit production'1 (Gough, 1967, p.
