2008-10 Nailsworth Design Statement Draft for Adoption.Pdf Draft for Adoption October 2008 Nailsworth Design Statement 1 Draft for Adoption October 2008 Foreword The Nailsworth Community Partnership was founded in January 2007. It is a coming together of local organisations and associations within the town of Nailsworth and surrounding parishes that wish to support and initiate projects that improve and enhance the property, heritage, environment and community life of the area. The Design Statement, which is before you, is one aspect of the Partnership’s activities. It is an audit of our existing built environment, the open spaces and countryside that we enjoy. Through public consultation it describes what we most like and possibly dislike about our town and it identifies what we wish to see in any future plans and developments proposed for Nailsworth. Our national and local planning legislation is very complicated. This Design Statement outlines this legislation and the processes involved. Above all, it enables us to know our town better and to have a well researched local voice in the preservation and development of Nailsworth. Our thanks go to Helen Bojaniwska who has guided us with our surveys and prepared this document. We also thank the voluntary team who have carried out the audit and consulted the public at various, sometimes chilly, venues. The validity of our findings are due to the Nailsworth people who took time to complete the questionnaires. I commend this document to all with an interest in the future of Nailsworth. Colin Gerard Chairman Nailsworth Community Partnership This has been a real community effort, led by Helen Bojaniwska and the Nailsworth Community Partnership. Through their efforts Nailsworth benefits from a clear overview of what we like about our town and what we feel it is important to preserve. It will become part of the material factors to which any future developer must have regard in their plans. We can be proud of what we have achieved. Norman Kay Town Mayor I welcome this draft document, which can support Stroud District Council’s planning policies and strategies. This draft Design Statement brings together the senses and experiences of local people in a meaningful and practical way, and offers residents a real 2 Draft for Adoption October 2008 opportunity to express their views on any future change, and seeks to encourage local distinctive design. It describes the visual qualities and features of the town as seen through the eyes of local people and valued by them, and as such seeks to inspire future development that respects the unique character of Nailsworth. It is clearly a special place where people live and work. The hard work of the community can only enhance the understanding between the District Council, designers and developers in a partnership approach. It identifies issues that need to be addressed early on in the planning process. It is proactive in this respect, and offers a means of delivery for sustainable and locally distinctive environments. I look forward to receiving a final version for possible adoption as Supplementary Planning Advice by the District Council.

  • Woodchester Parish Design Statement
    Woodchester Parish Design Statement The Design Statement describes the visual qualities and features of the Parish, as seen through the eyes of local residents. It sets out the key qualities of the Parish environment and the local values put upon them. It seeks to inspire future development that can respect and enhance the unique character of Woodchester. I believe the production of this document will show how people and their locally elected representatives can get more involved in planning for their areas. This is the essence of the Government’s Big Society ambitions. A good planning system is essential for the economy, environment and society. It represents a genuine opportunity for the local community to influence the future of the place where they live. As such, it can be considered an important initial step towards genuine neighbourhood planning, as proposed in the recently passed Localism Act. It will assist the delivery of good and informed contemporary designs that will be in harmony with the environment and local community aspirations. It should enable local people to exercise influence as well as inform the District Council’s planning policies and decisions. This work, I believe, can make a real difference to Woodchester. Finally, the community work within this Design Statement will enhance the understanding between the District Council, the local community, designers, and developers, in a meaningful and collaborative way. I therefore support and welcome this document.

  • The Woodchester Saw Mill and the Burrell Engine No 4010
    Issue 62 - Spring 2018 The Woodchester Saw Mill and the Burrell Engine No 4010 The following article was written by Edward Brown and is a fascinating insight into the original sawmill on the A46 and the Burrell Engine from the mill which has been restored. tractors for this timber work but as the work load increased in the 1930s, Denis with help from the sawmill invested in a more modern petrol Latil timber tractor along with matching pole trailer. These modern methods of haulage proved more than adequate for the supply of round timber for the sawmill and by January 1941 the out of date Burrell engine was sold on to Jesse Vines, the well know engine dealer from Gloucester. Jesse had the engine for only a short time, and in August 1941 the engine was sold on to agricultural contractor and dealer Murch Bros of Umberleigh, Devon. The engine was used by Murch for sawing and threshing. The Burrell 4010 engine seen outside Henry Workman sawmill at Woodchester during the late 1920’s We have a strong connection to the sawmill, as my Grandfather Denis Brown hauled timber for the sawmill from the late 1920s until its closure in the late 50s. We have the timber yard on the opposite side of the road from where the main building was, our yard was used for the storage of timber. Sawmill staff pose for the camera along with one of the two steam cranes on site. This an early photo that pre-dates the devastating fire of August 1911.
