  • HS2 and Appleby Magna Response by Appleby Magna Parish Council to the Draft Environmental Statement – December 2018
    Appleby Magna Parish Council - Response to HS2 HS2 and Appleby Magna Response by Appleby Magna Parish Council to the Draft Environmental Statement – December 2018 1. Appleby Magna and Parva – characteristics and facilities HS2’s Draft Environmental Statement provides accounts of Appleby’s characteristics and facilities in a number of sections. The Parish Council has identified omissions, inaccuracies and limitations. Rather than detail these section by section we would like to start with our own description of Appleby Parish. Appleby Parish Map As can be seen from the map left the parish of Appleby includes both the village of Appleby Magna and the hamlet of Appleby Parva. The parish runs to the outskirts of Measham (at Birds Hill) and Snarestone village. It is primarily a rural parish, including a number of farms. The M42 runs through the West of the parish. Housing in Appleby Parva is primarily on, or close to, the A444 towards Nuneaton. However, Appleby Magna is unusual in being close to, but not located on, any major road. This is important for its sense of place. The Appleby Magna and Appleby Parva Village Design Statement (which was the result of extensive public consultation and participation and became adopted as supplementary planning guidance) identified four elements of village character which development should seek to conserve: community spirit, rural nature, heritage, and quality and diversity of design (guideline 1). The minor village roads connecting the village to the major road network also attract significant numbers of cyclists and horse riders. Appleby Magna has been subject to significant housing growth in the last couple of years.

  • Hinckley and Bosworth
    HINCKLEY & BOSWORTH DISTRICT PROFILE JANUARY 2010 JSNA District Level Report JSNA findings for Hinckley and Bosworth 1. Demography In 2007 there were an estimated 104,400 people resident in Hinckley and Bosworth. 95% of the population is white British and 2% is White Other. Hinckley and Bosworth is affected by socio-economic deprivation with 7.1% of the population living in neighbourhoods that have been classified as deprived nationally (4th quintile). However, there are no residents within the most deprived quintile within this district. Whilst this is similar to the value for Leicestershire it is well below the national average of 20% of people. Priority Neighbourhoods Hinckley and Bosworth has five priority neighbourhoods, Earl Shilton, Barwell, Hinckley, Burbage and Bagworth. Maps of the priority neighbourhoods are available on the Leicestershire Statistics and Research Online website: http://www.lsr-online.org/reports/leicestershire_laa_priority_neighbourhoods 2. Housing and accommodation needs Hinckley and Bosworth is a mostly rural area. The main settlements, Hinckley, Barwell, and Earl Shilton, are fairly different . Using Output Area Classifications to gain a general view suggests that Hinckley contains more higher income households and Earl Shilton is relatively more working class, but these are generalisations and cover a substantial variety. Most of the children of school age in the main settlements are White British. The largest ethnic minority groups are ‘Other White’ and ‘Asian/British Indian’. Properties in the main settlements are mainly owner occupied 3 bed houses, though there are significant numbers of both 2 bed flats and houses. There is very little private rented property (though this is likely to have increased since 2001) throughout the borough.

  • HARBOROUGH DISTRICT COUNCIL OPEN SPACE/SPORT and RECREATIONAL FACILITIES and ASSESSMENT of LOCAL NEEDS FINAL REPORT by PMP In
    HARBOROUGH DISTRICT COUNCIL OPEN SPACE/SPORT AND RECREATIONAL FACILITIES AND ASSESSMENT OF LOCAL NEEDS FINAL REPORT BY PMP in association with Donaldsons JUNE 2004 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Executive Summary What is the aim of this open space, sport and recreation study? The study aims to provide a clear picture of existing and future needs for open space, sport and recreation in Harborough and the current ability to meet those needs in terms of quality, quantity and accessibility. The study sets local standards based on assessments of local needs, demographics and audits of existing open spaces. It is the basis for addressing quantitative and qualitative deficiencies through the planning process and should form the basis of the development of an open space strategy for Harborough DC. Scope of the open space and sport and recreation study The study includes all open space and recreation types identified within the latest Planning Policy Guidance Note 17 (Planning for Open Space Sport and Recreation, July 2002) and its Companion Guide (September 2002). These include parks and gardens, natural and semi-natural areas, green corridors, amenity greenspace, provision for children and young people, outdoor sports facilities, allotments, cemeteries and churchyards and civic spaces. The study also considers the provision of sport and indoor recreation facilities. What is the need for the study of open space, sport and recreation? A local assessment of open space and open space needs will enable the Council to: • plan positively, creatively and effectively in identifying priority areas for improvement and to target appropriate types of open space required • ensure an adequate provision of high quality, accessible open space to meet the needs of community • ensure any accessible funding is invested in the right places where there is the most need • conduct S106 negations with developers from a position of knowledge with evidence to support.

Layout and Production by Marilyn Dunkelman Copyright © 2010 Peter Moore: original text and additional material, all rights reserved Frontispiece to the original edition (1982) Aubrey Moore is the only surviving son of the Rev. Charles Thomas Moore, rector of Appleby Magna from 1877 to 1922 whose brother was the then squire and owner of the 4500 acre Appleby estate which was in the possession of the Moore family for over three hundred years. “A Son of the Rectory”, at first unnamed, was written as a series of notes for the information of the author’s children and their descendants to put on record some details of the life and history of the family and the village and its inhabitants at the time of his early life at the turn of the century. It was after it had been read by a number of friends that Aubrey was persuaded to offer it for publication as a work of country and autobiographical writing of much more than local interest. Aubrey Moore and his wife, who have recently celebrated their sixty-fifth wedding anniversary, still enjoy an active life in the Oxfordshire village of Bloxham where they have lived for the past twenty-four years.

    Rural Economy Planning Toolkit Companion Document Instructions for Using the Toolkit Useful Context Information Produced by: Funded by: Rural Economic Development Planning Toolkit This document explains how to use the toolkit in greater detail and sets out some of the broader context relevant to the development of the toolkit. Its sections are: Instructions for Using the Toolkit Economic Development Context The Emerging National Framework for Planning and Development The assessment of planning applications for rural economic development: designated sites and key issues for Leicestershire authorities What makes a good rural economic development planning proposal? Case Studies Parish Broadband Speeds The Distribution and Contribution of Rural Estates within Leicestershire Attractions in Leicester and Leicestershire Instructions - Using the Toolkit The toolkit is in the form of an interactive PDF document. Most of the text is locked, and you cannot change it. Throughout the toolkit, though, comments, information and responses are asked for, and boxes you can type in are provided. You are also asked to select 'traffic lights' – red, amber or green. It is important to understand that, if you start with a blank copy of the toolkit, the first thing you should do is save it with a different name using the 'Save as Copy' command in Acrobat Reader. This means you have now created a version of the toolkit for the particular project you are working on, and still have the blank copy of the toolkit for another time. Let's assume you have saved your copy of the PDF file as 'Project.pdf' – every time you save again you will save all of the additions and traffic light choices you have made.

  • News from Twycross Parish Council- (Late) Summer 2019
    NEWS FROM TWYCROSS PARISH COUNCIL- (LATE) SUMMER 2019 FROM ALAN DAVIES, CHAIRMAN, TWYCROSS PARISH COUNCIL I have been a parish councillor for the last 4 years, as a representative for Norton Juxta Twycross. My aims are to work to maintain the character of our villages, and help to keep our villages safe, clean and tidy. Here is a summary of some issues we have dealt with in recent months: a) Parish council elections- May 2019. Nobody put themselves forward for the May 2019 election. The election was therefore held again in June 2019 and 3 previous councillors (myself, Allan Taylor, and Melanie Large) decided to stand so that our parish council would continue. Since June, Keith Hughes and Matthew Humphreys have joined us. We still have 2 vacancies in Twycross. b) Planning application-M42 junction 11- proposed distribution campus Sadly, the proposal to build a massive distribution and storage campus on land just north of junction 11 of the M42 has been approved. This is likely to cause a huge increase in HGV’s on the A444 and traffic chaos on the M42 at junction 11. We opposed the application, as did our MP David Tredinnick and County Councillor Ivan Ould. We thank them for their support. Disappointingly Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council and Leicestershire County Council did not object. In my opinion this development will be an environmental disaster. c) Proposed construction of new houses in Orton Lane, Twycross Cartwright Homes are planning to build 20 new houses in Twycross, on a site already allocated for new housing. We have asked Cartwright Homes to keep Twycross residents fully informed as the development proceeds.
