  • CAMPBELL PARK, MILTON KEYNES AMENDED August 2018
    Understanding Historic Parks and Gardens in Buckinghamshire The Buckinghamshire Gardens Trust Research & Recording Project CAMPBELL PARK, MILTON KEYNES AMENDED August 2018 The Stanley Smith (UK) Horticultural Trust Bucks Gardens Trust HISTORIC SITE BOUNDARY NB the south-west corner of Campbell Park (the environs of Marlborough Street) overlaps with part of the north-east corner of Central Milton Keynes (qv). Bucks Gardens Trust, Site Dossier: Campbell Park, Milton Keynes, MKC A 2018 NB the south-west corner of Campbell Park (the environs of Marlborough Street) overlaps with part of the north-east corner of Central Milton Keynes (qv). 2 INTRODUCTION Background to the Project This site dossier has been prepared as part of The Buckinghamshire Gardens Trust (BGT) Research and Recording Project, begun in 2014. This site is one of several hundred designed landscapes county-wide identified by Bucks County Council (BCC) in 1998 (including Milton Keynes District) as potentially retaining evidence of historic interest, as part of the Historic Parks and Gardens Register Review project carried out for English Heritage (now Historic England) (BCC Report No. 508). The list is not definitive and further parks and gardens may be identified as research continues or further information comes to light. Content BGT has taken the Register Review list as a sound basis from which to select sites for appraisal as part of its Research and Recording Project for designed landscapes in the historic county of Bucks (pre-1974 boundaries). For each site a dossier is prepared by volunteers trained on behalf of BGT by experts in appraising designed landscapes who have worked extensively for English Heritage/Historic England on its Register Upgrade Project.

  • Castlethorpe Neighbourhood Plan Referendum – 22Nd July 2021 General Information for Voters
    Castlethorpe Neighbourhood Plan Referendum – 22nd July 2021 General Information for voters About this document On 22nd July 2021 there will be a referendum for residents in Castlethorpe parish on the Castlethorpe Neighbourhood Plan. The Castlethorpe Parish Council has prepared the Neighbourhood Plan for its parish and it has been agreed that the referendum area will cover the whole parish area. This document explains more about the referendum that is going to take place and how you can take part. It also gives you information about the Town and Country Planning system. The Referendum The referendum on 22nd July 2021 will ask you to vote ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to a question. For this referendum you will receive a ballot paper with this question: “Do you want Milton Keynes Council to use the Neighbourhood Plan for Castlethorpe to help it decide planning applications in the neighbourhood area?” How do I vote in the referendum? You show your choice by putting a cross (X) in the ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ box on your ballot paper. Put a cross in only one box or your vote will not be counted. If the referendum comes out in favour of the Neighbourhood Plan it will be adopted, and if adopted, the Neighbourhood Plan will become part of the Development Plan. The Town and Country Planning System The planning system helps to decide what gets built, where and when. It is essential for supporting economic growth, improving people’s quality of life, and protecting the natural and historic environment. Most new buildings, major changes to existing buildings or major changes to the local environment need planning permission.
