  • SECTION of CROMFORD and HIGH PEAK CANAL RAILWAY Proposed
    PLANNING & DEVEL. SERVICES H.E.R. STATEMENT : SECTION OF CROMFORD and HIGH PEAK CANAL RAILWAY Proposed Residential Development on land at Gisborne Yard, Old Road Whaley Bridge, High Peak [Outline Planning Application with all matters reserved] Peter D. Dalton BA (Dunelm) MRTPI, BSc Architectural Technology, MSc Technical Architecture 18th February 2013 The Application and the Historic Route of the Canal Railway A section of the route of the former Whaley Bridge canal basin to Cromford canal railway (referred to as the Cromford and High Peak railway) runs north south through the application site close to the eastern boundary. The features which have been identified as important to protect are :‐ a) the (buried) track bed which forms the access road along Caldene Terrace and continues through the Yard close to the eastern boundary b) the retaining wall along the eastern boundary and c) the buried tunnel/bridge beneath the Buxton to Manchester railway line (see Appendix 1 : Extract from the Monument Report compiled and supplied by Derbyshire County Council, Conservation Officer). The speculative scheme illustrated in the design and access statement demonstrates that a scheme for the residential development of the land at Gisbourne Yard could be achieved without compromising the route of the original canal railway or any of the features in the Monument Report (see Appendix 1). Recommendations in regard to the treatment of these features are made in the Statement. The Policy Famework The Saved Local Plan Policy relevant to the application is:‐ Policy 25 BC10 - ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND OTHER HERITAGE FEATURES Planning Permission will not be granted for development which is likely to result in harm to a Scheduled Ancient Monument or other nationally important site, its setting or amenity value.
