Ranton Parish Council MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF THE COUNCIL HELD ON THURSDAY 21 FEBRUARY 2008 AT RANTON VILLAGE HALL PRESENT: Cllr. N. MacLeod (Chairman) Cllr. R. Thomas Cllr. N. Bayliss IN ATTENDANCE: Members of the public Mrs. J. Hill (clerk) 1 Apologies Cllr. M. Winnington and Cllr. J. Forrester sent apologies. 2 Minutes of the previous meeting It was resolved to accept the minutes of the meeting held on 24 January 2008 as a true record. 3 Finance a) The following accounts for payment were approved by the council: 836 Audit commission £58.75 Annual audit 837 Mr. R. Thomas £7.10 Photocopying 838 Bayliss Agricultural Services £452.08 Clerk salary & exes b) The financial statements to the end of January 2008 were accepted by the council. 4 Reports a) Mowing and maintenance – Cllr. Thomas reported that he had walked around the village with John Hall regarding the grass cutting. The clerk produced the quote received which came to nearly £3,000. Mr. P. Jeffries had also quoted for the work and offered the same terms as last year. The council decided to retain Mr. Jeffries for the 2008/09 season. b) Highways – reports had been received of flooding on Brook Lane near Mr. S. Jeffries. Water was still lying on Hextall Lane and did not seem to be a Severn Trent Water problem but more probably a consequence of the high water table. Some work had been carried out on Butt Lane but had only moved the problem elsewhere. Coton Lane continues to be covered with mud. The clerk would try contacting CLARENCE again. c) Footpaths – nothing to report. d) Seighford Airfield – Cllr. Thomas went through a report he had given to the special meeting on 12 February. If the Certificate of Lawful Use was granted the parish could make a formal complaint to the ombudsman. If it felt that Stafford Borough Council had misrepresented themselves it could apply for a high court judicial review which would be costly. A barrister’s opinion would be useful, however, if more planning arises on the site. Seighford parish could be asked for a contribution towards costs and Ranton parish has reserves put aside for situations such as this. Members of the public said that they would be willing to contribute to a fund and were sure others would as well. The Chairman said that Cllr. Sutherland had called in the two retrospective planning applications that had been put in by Driveme. Both Councillors Sutherland and Winnington had declared personal interests, however. 5 Local Development Framework consultation At the special meeting held on 12 February members of the parish council had put together a response for ratification at this meeting. It was now resolved that the response should be entered on the consultation website by the clerk. 6 Parish Plan The Chairman had contacted the Village Hall Committee, the Women’s Institute, Kate Plant of the Parochial Church Council and Kerry Jones of the PTFA regarding support for the Parish Plan. He would shortly be issuing a parish newsletter to everyone to include a date for the first public meeting on the Parish Plan. 7 Clerk’s Report The council went through the correspondence received as listed in the report. 8 Public Questions None. 9 Items for Information/next Agenda None 10 Planning None 11 It was resolved that a meeting be held on Thursday, 27 February 2008 at 8.00pm in the Village Hall. The meeting was closed by the chairman. Signed ……………………………………. Date ……………………………………….

Bayliss Cllr. J. Forrester Borough Cllr R Sutherland IN ATTENDANCE: Mrs. J. Hill (clerk) 1 Apologies Cllr. M. Winnington 2 Local Development Framework Consultation Cllr. Forrester and the clerk gave a report on the consultation meeting held on 6 February at the Civic Centre chaired by Borough Councillor D. Davies. Consultation meetings were being held with groupings of parish councils to give the background to the various proposals being put forward by the Borough Council. The government has handed down to the Borough a minimum target of 10,300 new houses under the new LDF with 7,000 to be built in Stafford. There are also targets for land for creation of new business. To help the Borough make its decisions it has produced a description of each village including infrastructure and facilities and wishes the parishes to study these and to correct any errors. The Parish Council felt that the description for Ranton fell short of its actual state. It requested the clerk to add the following to the consultation site for Ranton: The village lies on an unclassified road between the Great Bridgford/Newport road and the A518 at Haughton. All five entries to Ranton are single track roads at some point along them. It is surrounded by five working farms which have an impact upon the road system. The sewerage system is not fit for the present housing and the storm water system is not adequate for the parish as a whole. The electricity system is weak and the broadband connection is low speed. There is no gas supply to the village and the bus service is actually the Ruralink car service that connects to the bus service. There is an infants school for 5 – 7 year-olds. There are no shops. There is one pub and one pub/restaurant neither of which is in the village proper. There is a church and a village hall but no other recreational or sports facilities. Ranton could only support minor development without major infrastructure work. The Borough had also provided six options for the location of new housing which ranged from all at Stafford and Stone, some at the bigger villages and a scattering to all settlements. The Parish Council felt that Option C should be the preferred option i.e. development in areas that already have infrastructure, facilities, health centres and shops. Cllr. Sutherland said that Stafford Borough Council will make sure any development will include infrastructure through Section 106 payments from the development partners. Feedback from the consultation will be received at the next meeting on 19 May 2008. 3 Seighford Airfield Cllr. Thomas tabled his latest report which was read by councillors. He felt strongly that events and changes have taken place that had not been under planning control at all. He intended to write to the Borough Chief Executive, David Rawlings, rather than the Borough solicitor, A. Welch, who had a personal interest in the site. The meeting was closed by the chairman.

The funds he had offered for the oil tank at the village hall had not been refused but the Village Hall Committee was not in a position to accept them.

Licence number AL50684A 42180/01/SPM/CR [Reference] Stafford Borough Council : Economic and Housing Development Needs Assessment Executive Summary Housing Market Area / Functional Economic Market Area Over the past ten years or so, the Borough has experienced a strengthening level of self-containment, with migratory patterns expanding and more people moving into the Borough from the adjoining Staffordshire authorities than before. There are very strong migration links between the Borough, Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle-under-Lyme. The Borough has a self-containment rate of 71% for in-migration, and 73% for out- migration when short household moves are considered and therefore exceeds the threshold for a self- contained Housing Market Area (HMA) set out previously in the Planning Practice Guidance (PPG). Median house prices vary significantly across the Borough, but are in line with those in adjacent areas in neighbouring local authorities. As the Borough is a predominantly rural district with overlapping HMAs and a number of other authorities nearby, it is considered both reasonable and pragmatic to take the administrative boundaries of the Borough as being a ‘best fit’ HMA for planning purposes. ONS Travel to Work Areas [TTWA] suggests that the Borough is a self-contained TTWA, albeit with some overlap with the Wolverhampton TTWA to the south.

    Appendix 2: Historic Environment Character Area Overviews for Stafford This appendix provides an overview of the historic environment for each of the Historic Environment Character Areas (HECAs) within Stafford Borough. It should be noted that the information and any recommendations contained within this appendix is subject to amendment should any new information become available. For further information regarding the Historic Environment Record (HER); Historic Landscape Characterisation (HLC) and designated sites please contact: Cultural Environment Team Environment & Countryside Development Services Directorate Staffordshire County Council Riverway Stafford ST16 3TJ Tel: 01785 277281/277285/277290 Email: [email protected] Staffordshire County Council June 2009 1 Historic Environment Character Area (HECA) 5b Introduction This document forms an overview of the HECA which specifically addresses the potential of medium to large scale development to impact upon the historic environment. The character area is dominated by 20th century housing development and field systems. Evidence of earlier farming practices and settlement do survive across the character area in the form of ridge and furrow earthworks, late medieval/post medieval field systems, moated sites and historic farmsteads. Earlier activity has been recorded in the character area in the form of the hillfort at Berry Ring and evidence for prehistoric to Roman settlement at Acton Trussell. Such sites suggest the potential for further unknown archaeological deposits to survive across the HECA. The character area covers 3,056ha and is split between Stafford Borough Council, to the north, and South Staffordshire Council to the south. Archaeological and historic documentation A number of archaeological assessments were carried out in the early 1990s for proposed large scale development.

  • The Norman Conquest Produced Immediately a Marvellous Advance in Everything That Pertained to Architecture and the Allied Crafts
    tg8 STAFFORDSHIRE. • The Norman Conquest produced immediately a marvellous advance in everything that pertained to architecture and the allied crafts. If Saxon buildings either of wood or stone existed at this time the Norman made short work {)f them, and left not a vestige of such work, even in the Cathedral of Lichfield itself. But he built instead a church in almost every parish, and to this day portions of them remain to tell the story of the vastness of his architectural reforms. The finest present Norman remains are to be seen in the early Norman Priory Church at Tutbury, founded in 1081 by Henry de Ferrers, and completed within ten years after­ wards, the founder being present at the dedication. St. Editha's at Tamworth, St. Chad's at Stafford, and the Col­ legiate Church at Gnosall, have also extensive remains of this period. Eome of the carviug at Gnomll is very Feculiar in character and Romanesque in style. But in every part of the shire where an ancient church remains Norman features of one kind or another are to be sEen. Some may be men­ tioned: Longnor, \Vaterfall, IpEtones, Draycot, Blore, Lapley (Collegiate Church), Enville, Stoke-on-Trent (rui11s), King's Bromley, Forton, Ellenhall, Chebsey, Patshull, Rol­ ]eston, 1\fadeley, Alrewas, Alstonfield, Alton, Bobbington, Checkley,· Codsall, High Offiey, Milwich, Stow, Gayton, Swinnerton, and Longdon. The Norman builders were fond of imagery, and carried it out in their carvings every­ where. A door-head often afforded them a space for their artistic chisel ; there are three churches where this is well displayed, viz., King's Swinford; Tutbury, and Ipstones.
