The Parish of Quarndon is located in Derbyshire forming part of an area termed the “South West Parishes” in the borough of Amber Valley. The Parish comprises two main centres of population: the village of Quarndon and a group of about 40 houses, separate from the village, and mostly built since year 2000, at the south of the Parish on Somme Road and Poppyfields Meadow estate. The historic village of Quarndon has been established for centuries and was mentioned as a “manor” in the Domesday Book 1086. In total there are just over 400 households and 1000 residents. The Village is northwest of the city of Derby, from which it is separated by a narrow band of Green Belt. This Neighbourhood Plan has been produced by a Steering Group of volunteers acting on behalf of the Parish Council, which is the responsible body. The Plan contains the thoughts and feelings of local people with a real interest in their community. The Parish Council has regularly reviewed the progress of the Steering Group and wholly supports both the Plan and the process used in its creation. The Plan reflects the consolidated views of residents and businesses in the Parish, and, where appropriate, other stakeholders. It covers key themes such as: housing; amenities; work; leisure; environment; traffic and transport. It has been developed through a process of consultation with parish residents and stakeholders. The Parish community agreed to produce a Neighbourhood Plan in May 2016. The Steering Group was formed at a launch meeting held in June 2016. This Group then structured and conducted the on-going activities. The Steering Group and Quarndon Parish Council are very grateful to the many people who live and/or have interests in the Parish who have given up their time to support the preparation of this Plan.

One of the key aspects to this is the ability of communities to produce a Neighbourhood Development Plan (or “Neighbourhood Plan”), subject to being in line with higher level planning policy. That is, Neighbourhood Plans must

  • Erasmus Fowke
    1 ERASMUS FOWKE Erasmus Fowke was born in or near Quarndon, Derbyshire and baptised July 13, 1794. His parents were Thomas Fowke and Rebecca Wallstone Fowke, whose first child was Anna (or Hannah?), baptised in 1781, then Thomas, baptised in 1792, and last Rebecca, baptised in 1796. A Job is mentioned in the parish records as the son of Thomas and Mary, and the name Mary may be a mistake, as the family recollection is that Job was Erasmus’s brother. He was baptised in 1793. The baptismal dates were not necessarily close to the children’s birth dates. Quarndon was a tiny place, only a few short miles from Derby, but during the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries it was at least moderately well known in England for its healing waters. Pigot’s 1835 Directory, found on the GENUKI Internet site, states that in 1821 Quarndon had just 438 inhabitants and in 1831, 487. It also mentions that, “Sir John Curzon, in 1725, bequeathed an annuity of L20. for the support of a free school, for a limited number of children of poor parents residing in Quarndon, Kedleston and Weston.” Perhaps this was the school which provided Erasmus and his brothers with their education. There is nothing to indicate that the Fowke family had a lot of money. All three sons left the area to seek their fortunes. There is a very amusing story about a certain “Nanny Fowke” from Quarndon. It is quite unlikely that Nanny Fowke was not related to our Fowkes, given the small size of Quarndon.

As promised in the last volume of the Marriage Registers of Derbyshire, the marriage records of St. Alkmund's form the first instalment of the Registers of the County Town. The Editors do not doubt that these will prove especially interesting to Derbyshire people. In Volume V they hope to print further instalments of town registers in the shape of those of St. Michael's and also some village registers. It will be noticed that St. Alkmund's register begins at the earliest possible date, 1538, but of the remainder, two do not start till the seventeenth century and one, that of Quarndon, synchronizes with the passing of Lord Hardwicke's Marriage Act. 1379092 It will be convenient to give here a list of the Derby- shire parishes of which the Registers have been printed in this series: Volume I.

  • Amber Valley Borough Local Plan Sustainability Appraisal Scoping Report
    ClearLead Consulting Limited, The Barn, Cadhay, Ottery St Mary, Devon, EX11 1QT, UK +44 (0) 1404 814 273 4th May 2020 By Email Only Dear Sir / Madam Amber Valley Borough Local Plan: Sustainability Appraisal - Scoping We are writing to you in order to gain your opinion on the enclosed Scoping Report which sets out the proposed scope and level of detail of the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) of the forthcoming Amber Valley Borough Local Plan. Amber Valley Borough Council (AVBC) formally resolved in May 2019 to withdraw the Submission Local Plan (March 2018) to enable the Spatial Vision, Strategic Objectives and Spatial Strategy Policies to be reviewed. At the Full Council meeting held in November 2019, the Borough Council agreed to prepare a new plan through to adoption by 31 March 2023, with a plan end date of at least 2038. The new Local Plan, when adopted, will replace the saved Local Plan policies of the current adopted plan. ClearLead Consulting Ltd has been appointed by AVBC to undertake the SA and as well as a parallel Habitats Regulations Assessment. Scoping Report The Scoping Report is the first output of the SA and provides baseline information on the environmental, social and economic characteristics of the plan area, including the likely evolution of the baseline position which would occur without the plan. The Scoping Report also sets out a methodology and framework for the assessment of the Local Plan and its alternatives at later stages of the Local Plan preparation process. It also identifies the significant effects that the assessment will need to focus on.

  • Derby Skyline Study Part Two (A) Historic Images of the City
    Derby Skyline Study Part Two (A) Historic Images of the City Melanie Morris Dip. Arch. Cons, IHBC, MRTPI for Derby City Council and Historic England Mel Morris Conservation for Derby City Council & Historic England 1 All historic images © Derby Museum and Art Gallery unless otherwise referenced Appendix A to C.indd 1 27/01/2019 09:41 INTRODUCTION As part of understanding the Derby Skyline over time, we have considered how the skyline and main views were appreciated over the centuries, and how the focus has changed. The most helpful way to understand this has been to consider the large body of painted and engraved images of Derby, which are contained within the Derby Museum and Art Gallery collection. Many of these paintings and engravings capture panoramas, long sweeping vistas and landscapes, which traditional (non-digital) photography cannot capture in the same way. They also convey much about the identity of Derby and its citizens and how these contribute to the collective impression of Derby. For this section of the study we have worked with the staff of Derby Museum and Art Gallery, the curators, to consider the catalogued collections of paintings, engravings and drawings, works which are both visible on the ArtUK website and those not generally visible, in museum stores. The process of investigating the catalogue resulted in a shortlist of types of view, locations of viewpoints and categories of skyline view, key viewing points and topics, where the subject matter was repeated and celebrated. To a lesser extent we also considered old photographs of Derby, many of which are displayed on the Picture the Past website.

  • Updated Duffield Area Profile
    Area Profile: Duffield Spatial Outline The settlement of Duffield is located to the south of Amber Valley Borough at its boundary with Erewash, approximately 5 miles north of Derby and 15 miles west of Nottingham. The area is linked to several transport corridors including the A6, the Derwent Valley Railway line and the River Derwent runs north-south through its boundaries. The village centre of Duffield is situated in the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site Buffer Zone. The village benefits from being surrounded by rolling countryside and the River Ecclesbourne and River Derwent flow through it, with land either side of the River Derwent within the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site. There are a number of good access roads and public transport links, with train and bus links to the north and south. The area has close connections to settlements in Holbrook, Quarndon and cross boundary links within Derby City and Erewash. Key Characteristics Population: 5046 Number of Households: 2028 Population Density: 6.4 people/hectare Approximate Area: 786 Hectares Source: Census 2011 1 Improving Places and Meeting Community Needs Land Area: Duffield covers 786 Hectares. Population Density: At the 2011 Census population estimate the population density was approximately 6.4 people per hectare. This is slightly higher than the average density for the Borough of 4.6 people per hectare. Age: 37% of Duffield’s population is aged between 30 - 59 years, but it is a slightly lower percentage than the Borough average for that age group. The percentage of children is higher than the average for the Borough, but the percentage of young adults is significantly lower.

  • 30-9-2014 Amber Valley Local Plan
    Public Agenda Item No. 4(h) DERBYSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL MEETING OF CABINET MEMBER – JOBS, ECONOMY AND TRANSPORT 30 September 2014 Report of the Strategic Director – Economy, Transport and Environment CONSULTATION ON PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE AMBER VALLEY LOCAL PLAN PART 1 CORE STRATEGY (1) Purpose of the Report To agree the County Council’s response to Amber Valley Borough Council’s (AVBC) public consultation on its Proposed Changes to the Amber Valley Local Plan Part 1 Core Strategy (Proposed Changes). (2) Information and Analysis The Amber Valley Local Plan Part 1: Submission Core Strategy (Submission Core Strategy) was submitted to the Secretary of State by AVBC on 20 December 2013. An Examination in Public (EIP) of the Plan was subsequently conducted by a Government Inspector (Roy Foster) between April and May 2014, on a number of key soundness issues identified by the Inspector, particularly that the housing target for both the Borough and wider Derby Housing Market Area (HMA) was too low and should be increased to meet the objectively assessed housing needs (OAHN) of both areas. He also raised concerns about the deliverability of the sites identified by AVBC in its five-year housing land supply. Specific issues and concerns relating to the Strategic Growth Sites in the Plan were also examined, particularly the proposed large urban extension sites north of Ripley and East of Codnor, and the need for the associated A610 Relief Road. The Inspector published his conclusions and recommendations on the EIP hearing sessions on 14 May 2014, and (particularly) recommended suspension of the EIP for a period of six months to allow AVBC further time to address his soundness concerns on these matters, with further evidence and collaborative working.

  • BAKEWELL MARKET Monday 15Th February
    BAKEWELL MARKET Monday 15th February With only fog to contend with this week stock numbers were better with 493 cattle and 974 sheep on offer, but still lower than the equivalent market 12 months ago. Because of the reduced numbers trade was exceptional with both cattle and sheep exceeding all expectations. There were 262 Store & Breeding cattle, plenty of buying power in operation and remarkable prices achieved. There is more than enough demand, but we seem to be short of supply. If you have Store Cattle to sell call Alastair Sneddon on 07973 982441 to book them in for future markets. Steers sold to £1,260 with an average of £906, heifers to £1,215 average £847 and feeding bulls £1,040 average £703. Cows & Calves to £1,250 and in calf cows £1,200. The figures above indicate many smaller and many young Black & White Steers. Trade for the 107 Finished Cattle remains as strong as ever with the best on offer to 257p and £1,688. Those figures are impressive, but the average for the 37 heifers at 216.2p demonstrated that trade was outstanding for all types. Thinking of Selling at Bakewell, have a word with Oliver on 07801 530899 A decent entry of 86 OTM & Feeding Cows with buyers pushing very hard to secure loads. Top figures 185p and £1,546 with the average a remarkable 135.3p. 38 Calves this week, bulls to £250 and heifers £305. 699 Old Season Lambs forward with top figures 350p/kg and £156.35 per head. The SQQ average at 295.3p demonstrating that we could have certainly sold many more had they been available.
