INTRODUCTION 1.1 This LVA provides an appraisal of the landscape and visual effects associated with the proposed construction of a replacement dwelling at Breezehurst, Hilliers Farm Lane, Gore End, Hampshire. The site is located within the civil parish of East Woodhay and forms part of the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). In total, the site covers approximately 0.21 hectares (ha) of land at Breezehurst which comprises the bungalow, its grounds, as well as several ancillary buildings. The applicants own a further 0.56ha of land to the west of the site, including a tree belt to the north. 1.2 The proposed development will see the demolition of all the existing on-site buildings and the erection of a two-storey replacement dwelling. The proposed development will also see the creation of a new vehicular access to the centre of the plot, as well as the retention and enhancement of the existing access to the north. 1.3 The site is in the administrative area of Hampshire County Council, specifically Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council. The policy context is taken from the National Planning Policy Framework (2012) and Basingstoke and Deane Local Plan 2011 to 2029 (2016). The baseline landscape character has been taken from the Natural England National Character Area Profile: 129. Thames Basin Heath (2014), the Hampshire County Integrated Character Assessment (2010), and the Basingstoke and Deane Landscape Assessment (2001). Information regarding the character of the North Wessex Downs AONB has been taken from the North Wessex Downs AONB Integrated Landscape Character Assessment (2002), the North Wessex Downs AONB Management Plan 2014–19 (2014), and the North Wessex Downs AONB position statement on housing (2012). Also of relevance to this project is The Parish of East Woodhay Village Design Statement (2005) which provides information on the building styles and material found within the parish. 1.4 The LVA involves the following components: Establishing the scope and methodology of the appraisal. Desk studies and preliminary site surveys. Baseline analysis of landscape and visual resources, including desk and field surveys. Identification and appraisal of landscape and visual effects. A landscape strategy and mitigation proposals. WHLandscape 1 Landscape and Visual Appraisal Replacement Dwelling at Breezehurst, March 2017 Hilliers Farm Lane, Gore End, Hampshire 2. SCOPE AND APPRAISAL METHODOLOGY The LVA process is based on the following guidance: Guidelines for Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment. 3rd ed. Landscape Character Assessment: Guidance for England and Scotland Landscape effects relate to changes in landscape character, features and qualities as a result of the development and can be Positive, Adverse or Neutral. Visual effects relate to the appearance of the development and can also be Positive, Adverse or Neutral. The visual effects affect the visual amenity, which is the value of an area and what can be seen. The LVA will consider the following: The effects on landscape resource and character. The effects on visual amenity and the perception of the landscape. The effects on any designations within the study area. 2.1 BASELINE LANDSCAPE AND VISUAL STUDY 2.1.1 This study reviews the existing landscape and visual resources in terms of character, value and sensitivity. The baseline analysis forms the basis against which to appraise the magnitude of change and, subsequently, the significance of effect of the predicted landscape and visual effects resulting from the proposed development. The appraisal focuses on the areas from which the development may be visible and includes a description, classification and evaluation. The process comprises three stages, namely a desk study, field survey and analysis. DESK STUDY RESOURCES 2.1.2 The following resources have been used to inform the field survey and the analysis: Mapping Ordnance Survey maps and vertical aerial photography Definitive Rights of Way: Hampshire Rights of Way Online Geology: Geology of Britain Viewer (British Geological Survey) Pedology: Soilscapes Map (Soilscapes) Designations: Magic Interactive Mapping – Basingstoke and Deane Interactive Policies Map Heritage assets: The National Heritage List for England (Historic England) Additional Desk Study Resources The Parish of East Woodhay Village Design Statement WHLandscape 2 Landscape and Visual Appraisal Replacement Dwelling at Breezehurst, March 2017 Hilliers Farm Lane, Gore End, Hampshire Planning Policy National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) Basingstoke and Deane Local Plan 2011 to 2029 Character Assessment Natural England National Character Area Profile: 129. Thames Basin Heath Hampshire County Integrated Character Assessment Basingstoke and Deane Landscape Assessment North Wessex Downs AONB Publications North Wessex Downs AONB Integrated Landscape Character Assessment North Wessex Downs AONB Management Plan 2014–19 North Wessex Downs AONB position statement on housing FIELD SURVEY WORK 2.1.3 The desk study informs the field survey work. Of particular relevance are the Ordnance Survey maps, aerial photography and the Landscape Character Assessments. The field survey is then used to gain a full appreciation of the relationship between the landscape character components and the proposed development therein. The fieldwork is supported by mapped viewpoints and photographic records which aim to be representative and relevant to the receptors. ANALYSIS 2.1.4 The baseline landscape analysis provides a description, classification and evaluation of the landscape, and the interaction between the landscape components. This forms the basis for appraisal of the effects of the proposed development. 2.2 APPRAISAL OF LANDSCAPE AND VISUAL EFFECTS 2.2.1 The landscape appraisal addresses changes in the fabric, character and key characteristics of the landscape. The visual appraisal addresses changes in views, and the significance of those changes on visual receptors. 2.2.2 The appraisal of effects aims to: Systematically identify the effects of the development. Estimate the sensitivity of the site, study area and receptors, and the magnitude of change. WHLandscape 3 Landscape and Visual Appraisal Replacement Dwelling at Breezehurst, March 2017 Hilliers Farm Lane, Gore End, Hampshire Provide an appraisal of the nature of the effects and, subsequently, the significance of effect in a logical and well-reasoned fashion. Indicate possible mitigation measures. 2.2.3 The LVA for the proposed development of the site will look at the potential effects of the proposals in the context of receptor sensitivity in order to determine the potential effect on the underlying resource, with mitigation measures recommended if required. 2.2.4 Wherever possible, identified effects are quantified but, by its very nature, the LVA requires a significant amount of interpretation and professional judgement. To be consistent, the prediction of magnitude of change and the appraisal of significance of effect have been based on pre-defined criteria. 2.2.5 The significance of effect can be expressed as a correlation between the magnitude of change and landscape or visual sensitivity in a single matrix to determine significance, as shown in Table 1 (below). However, it must be noted that the matrix is not in itself a substitute for professional judgement, for which an allowance must be made. The calculation of a significant effect need not be unacceptable or adverse. Where possible, an appraisal is made as to whether the significance of effect is Positive or Adverse (Nature of Effect), although in some cases the change is neither Positive nor Adverse (Neutral). Although mitigation measures are often proposed where the significance of effect is Minor or None, it is the Major and Major/Moderate categories which provide the highest level of significance in terms of effect on the landscape and visual resources.

  • Obituary. T. D. Atkinson, F.R.I.B.A. Thomas Dinham
    PAPER'S AND PROCEEDINGS 173 OBITUARY. T. D. ATKINSON, F.R.I.B.A. HOMAS DINHAM. ATKINSON died on the 29th of December 1948, aged 84. Architect, antiquary and author, This greatness lay even more in the power of his personality than in the quiet competence of his work in many fields. Although widely learned in several departments of archaeology, he possessed true humility and a whimsical wit, often turned against his own foibles. His classical outlook belonged more to the 18th than the. 19th century, but he was inspired by deep feeling uncommon in the Age of Taste. Injustice moved him to fierce indignation and he could be stern with folly, but he met life with kindness, generosity and nobility of spirit. Aided by an exceptional memory, he methodically amassed architectural facts under subject headings during a period of well over' half-a-century ; these extensive- collections now belong to the Society of Antiquaries; Local Style in English Architecture, published' in the last year of his life, summarised part of this garnered treasure as an introduction to the more detailed treatment he had projected, and for which " The Sources of Hampshire Architecture in Past Times " {Proceedings, Hants Field Club, XV, pt. 2) and " Local Character in the Ancient Architecture' • of Cambridgeshire" {Proceedings, Cambridge Antiquarian Society, XL) were drafts. Among his many, other published works, the great Architectural History of the Benedictine Monastery, at Ely (1933) takes pride of place, but Hampshire should treasure his Survey of the Street Architecture of Winchester (1934), an outstanding record and work of catholic appreciation which ought perpetually to be had in remembrance—and in.print.

For reporting crime, call 101 or go to the Hampshire police website www.hampshire.police.uk. Community Priorities The current neighbourhood priority is Burglary. A residential property in Cannon Heath, Overton, was broken into during daylight hours and jewellery was stolen. An electric bike was stolen from a garage in Ecchinswell. Some facts about burglaries (sources in brackets). Most burglaries take place between 10am and 3pm. (Safestyle UK) The average burglary lasts for eight minutes. (Dr Claire Nee, Unviersity of Portsmouth) Many burglaries are ‘spur of the moment’ decisions by a burglar who notices an open door, open window, valuables on display or some other weakness. (Thames Valley Police) The vast majority of burglars will want to avoid meeting the home’s occupants at any cost. (The Independent) A burglar may typically examine many houses before finding one that looks like an easy one to steal from. Homes with no security measures in place are five times more likely to be burgled than those with simple security measures. Good window locks and strong deadlocks can make a big difference. In most burglaries, the criminals broke into the house or flat through the door, either by forcing the lock or kicking it in.
