  • Wigginton & Hopwas Neighbourhood Plan – Historic Environment Map 1
    Wigginton & Hopwas Neighbourhood Plan – Historic Environment Map 1: Designated Heritage Assets The map identifies the designated heritage assets within the parish. There are two Conservation Areas: Hopwas and Wigginton. There are also 15 Grade II Listed buildings and structures and a further 14 buildings within Hopwas which have been identified as being of local importance following the Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan carried out by Lichfield District Council in May 2012 (http://www.lichfielddc.gov.uk/downloads/file/5037/hopwas_conservation_area_appr aisal_and_management_plan ). This document also provides detailed information on the significance and local character of the village. It should be noted that there are other historic buildings which are not designated which may be deemed to contribute to the local character of the parish and to the individual villages; this may include buildings within Comberford and Wigginton as well as the historic farmsteads (see below). Policy wording which seeks to protect and enhance the character of the settlements in terms of materials used, scale etc. may be appropriate to retain their local distinctiveness. Map 2: Sites of known archaeological interest (excluding buildings and structures) The map shows those sites recorded on the Staffordshire Historic Environment Record (HER), excluding buildings and structures, which are deemed to have an archaeological interest. The Staffordshire HER is a database which records all of the known archaeological sites and monuments as well as the historic buildings. It also incorporates information on archaeological work that has been carried out within the county and further information can be found at www.staffordshire.gov.uk/Historic- Environment-Record .

  • Appendix 2 HECA Overviews
    Appendix 2: Historic Environment Character Area Overview Reports This appendix provides an overview of the historic environment for each of the Historic Environment Character Areas (HECAs) which fall within Lichfield District. It should be noted that the information and any recommendations contained within each of the documents 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 Heritage Team Environment & Countryside Development Services Directorate Staffordshire County Council Riverway Stafford ST16 3TJ Tel: 01785 277281/277285/277290 Email: [email protected] Staffordshire County Council February 2009 1 Historic Environment Character Area (HECA) 2a Introduction This document forms an overview of the HECA which specifically addresses the potential impact of medium to large scale development upon the historic environment. The character area covers 5,645ha lies wholly within Lichfield District boundary and to the west of Tamworth. Archaeological and Historic Documentation Archaeological work within the character area has tended to concentrate along the A5 and the M6 (Toll) roads. The information on this character area mostly comes from the HER data, whilst VCH has covered part of the area. Historic Environment Assets Summary The current understanding on the later prehistoric landscape of the character area suggests that it had mostly been heavily wooded until Bronze Age, when some clearance may have begun to take place to support a small scale pastoral economy. The earliest evidence for human activity from the character area dates to the Mesolithic period; however, this comes from flint artefacts and probably represents the presence of mobile hunting groups and transitory occupation.

  • Wigginton and Hopwas Parish Council
    Wigginton and Hopwas Parish Council. Chairman of the Parish Council Councillor Keith Stevens Mrs. M. Jones, Clerk, Wigginton and Hopwas Parish Council, 50, Cornwall Avenue Tamworth, Staffordshire. B78 3YB 01827 50230 [email protected] 14/02/13 Mrs Clare Egginton Principal Development Plans Officer Lichfield District Council District Council House Frog Lane Lichfield WS13 6YU Dear Clare Re: Application for Designation of a Neighbourhood Area At the Parish Council meeting held on 7th February 2013 it was resolved that the Parish Council should apply to Lichfield District Council to request that the Parish of Wigginton and Hopwas be designated a Neighbourhood Area. Accordingly as a Parish Council and relevant body for the purposes of section 61G of the 1990 Act we enclose a map identifying the Parish of Wigginton and Hopwas which we believe is an area appropriate to be designated a Neighbourhood Area. The Parish of Wigginton and Hopwas is predominately rural, comprising the villages of Hopwas and Wigginton, the hamlet of Comberford, and several farms and outlying properties. It is bordered on the south by the town of Tamworth, which is used for services by many residents. The Parish Council believes that the development of a Neighbourhood Plan through consultation with residents is appropriate for providing for the needs of the communities which it serves.
