  • Upper Palaeolithic & Mesolithic Buckinghamshire
    Upper Palaeolithic and Mesolithic Buckinghamshire c 38,000-4000 BC Michael Farley February 2008 Introduction Archaeological investigations in Buckinghamshire have to date had little impact nationally on understanding of the Upper Palaeolithic or Mesolithic. Such evidence as there is comes principally from sites associated with watercourses. There has been one preliminary investigation of a late Upper Palaeolithic site and only a few relatively small-scale investigations on sites of Mesolithic date. Not surprisingly the principal artefactual material recovered has been flint and there are fewer instances where organic materials have been either retrieved or investigated for environmental evidence. In view of the paucity of identified Upper Palaeolithic material, unless specifically stated all of the comments which follow refer to finds of Mesolithic date. Owing to the relatively limited amount of research work undertaken on these periods in the county, it has seemed most convenient to describe discoveries sequentially in order of discovery so that it is apparent how study of the period has developed in the county, and then to provide brief conclusions. The sequence of discoveries In 1955 Jack Head published a survey of Chilterns archaeology. Apart from a few individual Mesolithic finds, he could only muster two ‘sites’ of the period; an early description by Peake (1917) of surface finds (apparently) on land at Kimble Farm, Turville close to the Oxfordshire border and the work of Lacaille at Iver. Had his survey included the whole of the county he would have found no other investigated sites at that date despite the fact that the County Museum-based record of archaeological finds (later to become the basis of the County Sites and Monuments Record) to which Head would probably have referred, had begun to take formal shape as early as the 1930s, so in that respect Buckinghamshire’s record of archaeological finds and investigations was at that time potentially more comprehensive than was the case in many other counties.

The visit was the first short inspection carried out since the school was judged to be good in February 2013. This school continues to be good. The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. You provide high-quality and effective leadership, which is creative and sometimes challenges the norm. For example, all staff contribute to the school’s development plan as a working document which is placed on the staff room wall so that every member of staff understands how well the school is doing and where extra work is needed. Staff value the fact that you listen to them and they feel part of what is clearly a very strong team. You skilfully use the talents of your senior leadership team to improve teaching, learning and assessment across the school to raise standards. All leaders articulate your shared vision very clearly and have accurate views about what the school does well and what could be even better. You give leaders clear objectives, high-quality professional development and time to do their jobs well.

  • Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment Single Detached
    Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment For Single Detached Dwelling , Finings Road, Bolter End, Buckinghamshire Document 756 LVIA Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment Introduction This assessment will not follow in detail the Landscape and Visual Guidelines (3rd Edition) as the content is not relevant in its entirety for a development of this size. It will review the potential impact of the proposed development visually and in terms of the landscape character. Whilst assessing the landscape and visual impact, the study will not make any assessments on scale, magnitude of effect, reversibility and other factors concerned with the degree of these effects. It will, however, set out the Zone of Visual Influence which indicates the limits of the area over which there is a visual or landscape impact on people, living, working, walking or driving within the local area from the proposed development. The assessment was undertaken by the applicants who are retired landscape architects, former members of the Landscape Institute and with more than thirty years’ experience of undertaking such assessments. Methodology The site was surveyed on the weekend of 10/11th October 2020 in bright, clear conditions. The survey assessed the visibility of the site and the dwelling which might be observable from the road and footpath network and from adjacent dwellings and commercial enterprises. It seeks to assess the landscape character based on the broad characteristics set out in the ‘Wycombe Landscape Character Assessment’ 2011 prepared by Land Use Consultants. Local Landscape Character The Wycombe Landscape Character Assessment placed the landscape which surrounds the proposed development into LCA 16.1 Stokenchurch Settled Plateau.

Background 1.1 Wycombe District Council is currently progressing work on preparing a new planning framework, including a new Local Plan for the District. This work comprises a range of studies to explore options for accommodating new development requirements. 1.2 As part of the Council’s technical work which has already taken place, particularly as part of the Local Plan Options Consultation in 2014, it has already become clear that the requirements for new development are likely to be considerably higher than previous targets. Consequently the Council is likely to be faced with significantly greater challenges in terms of finding options to meet these needs. 1.3 To put this into context, the Council’s Adopted Core Strategy was based on a housing target of 402.5 new homes per annum, a quantum which was capable of being delivered predominantly through brownfield development and the limited pool of greenfield reserve sites in the south of the District. The early indication of significantly higher growth levels in the District means, however, that for the first time in many years, there is the prospect of a significant level of greenfield development being required to be explored in the Local Plan, to help meet the District’s development requirements.
