  • Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection
    Topic Paper: Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection Dover District Local Plan Supporting document The Selection of Site Allocations for the Draft Local Plan This paper provides the background to the selection of the proposed housing, gypsy and traveller and employment site allocations for the Draft Local Plan, and sets out the reasoning behind the selection of specific site options within the District’s Regional, District, Rural Service, Local Centres, Villages and Hamlets. Overarching Growth Strategy As part of the preparation of the Local Plan the Council has identified and appraised a range of growth and spatial options through the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) process: • Growth options - range of potential scales of housing and economic growth that could be planned for; • Spatial options - range of potential locational distributions for the growth options. By appraising the reasonable alternative options the SA provides an assessment of how different options perform in environmental, social and economic terms, which helps inform which option should be taken forward. It should be noted, however, that the SA does not decide which spatial strategy should be adopted. Other factors, such as the views of stakeholders and the public, and other evidence base studies, also help to inform the decision. The SA identified and appraised five reasonable spatial options for growth (i.e. the pattern and extent of growth in different locations): • Spatial Option A: Distributing growth to the District’s suitable and potentially suitable housing and employment site options (informed by the HELAA and Economic Land Review). • Spatial Option B: Distributing growth proportionately amongst the District’s existing settlements based on their population.

  • News, December 2020
    White Cliffs Ramblers – News, December 2020 2020 – THE YEAR OF… If twelve months ago someone had told me that we would be cancelling over five months’ worth of walks due to some unseen threat to our health I might have questioned their sanity. Yet as 2020 draws to a close, restrictions on our daily activities have become a fact of life. One thing that has not changed, are the benefits that walking brings to both our physical and emotional well-being. It is also evident that many of us have missed the social aspect of group walks. Therefore, it is to be hoped that the vaccines that are starting to become available enable us to enjoy the company of fellow walkers once again on the footpaths of Kent and beyond. So, on behalf of the White Cliffs Ramblers Committee we would wish you a peaceful Christmas and a healthy New Year. WCR COMMITTEE 2020 – 2021 At our AGM at the beginning of November, two long standing members of the Committee stood down from their respective roles. After almost thirty-two years, founding member Graham Smith relinquished his post as Press and Publicity Officer pending his move to Scotland. We wish Graham and Sarah every happiness in their new home. Graham has been replaced by Lee Pickup (pictured right), one of our walk leaders and a member of the Festival Committee. Also standing down as Group Treasurer was Margaret Milsted – Williamson, although she will continue to offer her experience to the Committee as a co-opted member. Taking over the responsibility of looking after the Group’s finances is John Shale (pictured left).

  • Hedgerows and Tracks
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society HEDGEROWS AND TRACKS M. M. O'GRADY, B.A. In this study an ancient trackway is traced from Sandwich to Geddinge.1 Though no definite information exists about its origin, part of it was used as a boundary in medieval times, as revealed by the various rentals.2 The section which forms a boundary hedge along Eastry manor is dated in accordance with Dr. Hooper's method3 and it coincides with the date of the rentals. FROM SANDWICH TO WOOTTON; TRACKWAY AND HEDGES The trackway starts at Sandwich at about 10 ft. O.D. and can be traced to the Downs to 450 ft. O.D.4 In Sandwich, the trackway passes over alluvium where thin buried peat may occur locally.3 Next, it traverses Thanet Sands, Upper Chalk, Valley Gravels and Brickearth, but its chief foundation is Upper Chalk, The length of the trackway from Sandwich to Wootton Church, via Eastry, Golgotha, Shepherdswell and Geddinge is approximately 10 miles. For purpose of convenience the trackway has been divided, in Fig. 2, into five s e c t i o n s . The stretch from Golgotha to Wootton is not included in Fig. 2, but can be located on the Ordnance Survey Map. From St. Bart's road, Sandwich to the Woodnesborough road, the area is below 50 ft. O.D. The first part of the trackway is fenced artificially, but afterwards it becomes an open cart-track till it meets the Woodnesborough road.

  • MEN of KENT. I. BOYS of BONNINGTON Now Occupied by Lord Fitz Waiter, Who Farms the Adjoining Estate
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 79 1964 MEN OF KENT. 1. BOYS OF BONNINGTON By COLIN MATSON THE Family of Boys is one of the most ancient and distinguished in England. At the British Museum we can inspect a pedigree which traces the descent of this family from John de Bois, who died in 1096 and can be assumed to have been a follower of William the Conqueror. The names of many men of distinction are to be found upon this pedigree. In this article we are concerned with those branches which settled in Kent and more especially in the south-eastern sector of the county. In the pedigree referred to above the descent is traditional for the first ten generations. But from 1385 the descent is authentic for the several branches concerned. These were based upon the Bonnington Estate, which was recorded in Philipot's Villare Ccmtianum, published in 1659, 'to have been then, and for seventeen previous generations, the seat from whence the numerous and knightly family of Boys issued forth and spread into Fredville, Betteshanger, and other parts of Kent'. In the early years of the seventeenth century there were in the county no less than eight branches of this family, each with its own capital mansion. This Bonnington—which must not be confused with another of that name situated at a distance of six miles to the west of Hythe—is to be found in the parish of Goodnestone-by-Wingham. Thomas Boys was of Bonnington during the reign of Edward II; and William Boys was seised of his estates at Bonnington and Fredville in the parish of Nonington, when he died in 1507.

  • Dover District Local Plan Housing and Economic Land Availability
    Dover District Local Plan Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment Note of Key Issues Raised at Meetings with Town and Parish Councillors To inform the preparation of the Dover District Local Plan officers have undertaken a Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (HELAA). The Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment aims to identify a future supply of land in the District which is suitable, available and achievable for housing and economic development uses over the Plan period to 2040. The purpose of the Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment is to: 1. identify sites and broad locations with potential for development; 2. assess their development potential; 3. assess their suitability for development and the likelihood of development coming forward (the availability and achievability). The Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment is a technical piece of evidence to support the Local Plan making process and is a requirement of the National Planning Policy Framework (2019). It should however be noted that the HELAA does not in itself determine whether a site should be allocated for development. The allocation of land for development will depend upon the extent of policy and practical constraints identified in the assessment and the choices ultimately made by the Council taking account of the outcomes of the Sustainability Appraisal and following public consultation on the strategy. Ultimately, it is the role of the Local Plan itself to determine which of those sites identified in the HELAA are the most suitable to be taken forward and allocated for housing. To inform the local plan making process a number of meetings were held with Town and Parish Council’s in March 2020, to discuss the latest findings of the HELAA work.
