Land Comprising Field at 433113 471863, Back Lane, Sharow, North Yorkshire Case No. 18/04657/FULMAJ Item No. 04 Location: Land Comprising Field At 433113 471863, Back Lane, Sharow, North Yorkshire, Proposal: Residential Development of 60 Dwellings. Applicant: Rouse Homes Ltd Access to the case file on Public Access can be found here:- view file Reason for report: This application is to be presented to the Planning Committee because it is a development of over 50 dwellings. The application was deferred from the 04.06.19 committee for the following reasons: The application was deferred for reconsideration of the design/layout improvements and the completion of the Road Safety Audit. SUMMARY The proposal has been reduced from 69 originally, to 66 as reported at the last planning committee and now to 60 dwellings. The layout shows an improvement and has been amended to provide greater gaps between dwellings, the layout now is more sporadic with a scattered position of dwellings, particularly along the eastern boundary. Greater connectivity has been achieved through the road layout, additional tree planting can be realised and the design of dwellings has been amended in the form of improved architectural detail. In addition a satisfactory Road Safety Audit has been submitted, and reviewed by the Highway Authority. The submission has a number of significant benefits deriving from it: it is promoting sustainable development through the development of a sustainably located site directly adjoining an existing settlement; the proposal will provide a range of homes to meet the needs of the local community; the development proposal will provide a development that is visually acceptable; parking is provided at an appropriate standard and a new safe vehicular access from Dishforth Road will facilitate the development, with an amended 18/04657/FULMAJ 1 route to New Road also proposed; each dwelling will have good private amenity space and the layout of the site and individual dwellings ensures the amenity of existing residents and future occupiers is protected; and publicly accessible open space is provided within the development and will incorporate existing trees, open space and new planting, the environmental impacts will be managed through the submission of appropriate mitigation; and the development will provide contributions to mitigate the impacts on existing public open space, village halls and educations facilities. The site is a draft allocation for housing land under Ref: SH1 of the emerging Harrogate Draft Local Plan and is expected to be delivered to assist the Council in meeting and maintaining their five-year housing supply requirements. The potential yield is 62 dwellings. This scheme proposes a lower figure. In view of the above, it is considered the scheme satisfies national and local policy and represents a suitable development proposal for the site that addresses all the relevant and material considerations. In this context, the proposal satisfies Section 38(6) of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and it is considered planning permission should be granted. RECOMMENDATION: Defer and Approve subject to conditions and a S106 Agreement 18/04657/FULMAJ 2 18/04657/FULMAJ 3 18/04657/FULMAJ 4 1.0 SITE DESCRIPTION 1.1 The site lies to the east of Sharow and is bounded by Dishforth Road to the north. Residential properties accessed off Sharow Road and New Road to the south are beyond a bridleway called Back Lane. There is a field to the east. To the west is New Road, which separates the site from dwellings at Glebe Meadow. 1.2 The site is approximately 2.78 hectares in size and comprises a single agricultural field which is currently in use as arable land. The site is relatively flat and well contained along its boundaries by perimeter hedgerows and a belt of tree planting along the eastern boundary which separates the site from the adjacent field. 1.3 The nearest dwellings are to the south of the site accessed from Sharow Road and New Road, whilst there are further residential properties to the west with properties on Glebe Meadows, a 1970s housing development. The dwellings within Sharow contains a number of traditional buildings, but also they display a variety of architectural styles. 1.4 The site lies within the buffer zone of the Studley Royal Park including the ruins of Fountains Abbey World Heritage Site. Within this buffer zone are designated heritage assets such as the Ripon Minster. 1.5 Other physical constraints include Tree Preservation Orders (TPO); three trees on the boundary of the site are subject to TPO’s. The entirety of the site lies within Flood Zone 1 (Low Probability). 1.6 There are bus stops directly adjacent to the site on Dishforth Road. Sharow itself lies directly close to Ripon, a main settlement of the district. 1.7 Within the Emerging Local Plan, Sharow is designated as a Secondary Service Village (Policy GS2), in which new development shall be located on land allocated for development. In the Core Strategy under policy SG2 it is a category C village which have at least 3 community facilities and access to bus services. 18/04657/FULMAJ 5 2.0 PROPOSAL 2.1 The development proposes to deliver 60 residential dwellings. The on-site affordable housing provision is 40%. The development also proposes an area of on-site amenity green space. 2.2 A new vehicular access onto Dishforth Road is proposed, this will link to New Road. The New Road junction will be permanently closed to vehicular traffic (using bollards), but retained as a pedestrian cycle route. This is subject to a Traffic Regulation Order. 2.3 Development is sited either side of the access road from Dishforth Road. From this a spine road runs to a ‘T’ junction which runs north and south, and now loops back the main route through the side. A road runs alongside Dishforth Road in the northern boundary. The roads also lead off to smaller cul-de-sacs, with suitably sized turning heads. 2.4 The design of the dwellings is reflective of modern housing development construction using brick. All dwellings proposed are two storey, and meet space standards. There are a variety of house types comprising detached and semi-detached properties. 2.5 All dwellings have sufficient parking spaces and gardens within their curtilage. Most dwellings will have garages. There is some parking for visitors in parking bays alongside the access roads. 3.0 APPLICANT'S SUPPORTING INFORMATION 3.1 The following documents were submitted with the application. 18/04657/FULMAJ 6 Site Layout Plan; Full Plans and Elevations of all house types; Materials and Boundary Treatment Plan; Planning Statement; Design & Access Statement; Statement of Community Involvement; Transport Assessment; Flood Risk Assessment; Noise Survey; Ecological Appraisal, Bat Activity Report & Site Investigation Report; Heritage Statement; Arboricultural Report & Tree Constraints Plan Archaeology – Geophysical Survey, Desk Based Assessment & Trial Trenches Report.

Terraces and channels, most of which are now relict features well above the altitude of the present river, attest to the impacts of massive meltwater discharge and deposition of sand and gravel outwash, and dynamic river regimes with rapid incision. Through field survey, we have created a detailed geomorphological map of these landforms and glacial and fluvioglacial surface deposits, as well as the terraces and palaeochannels that were abandoned by the river due to avulsion Citation: Innes, J.; Mitchell, W.; and incision-driven course changes.

  • Subsidence Hazards Caused by the Dissolution of Permian Gypsum in England: Geology, Investigation and Remediation
    SUBSIDENCE HAZARDS CAUSED BY THE DISSOLUTION OF PERMIAN GYPSUM IN ENGLAND: GEOLOGY, INVESTIGATION AND REMEDIATION A H Cooper, British Geological Survey, Kingsley Dunham Centre, Keyworth, Nottingham NG12 5GG. This is a recompiled version of the final draft of the published paper, it is presented with coloured versions of the figures and may differ slighly from the published edited version. Please respect copyright of BGS/NERC and refer to the final published version if you wish to quote the work. Published as: Cooper, AH. 1998. Subsidence hazards caused by the dissolution of Permian gypsum in England: geology, investigation and remediation. 265–275 in: Geohazards in engineering geology, Maund, JG, Eddleston, M (eds.). Geological Society of London. Special Publications in Engineering Geology, 15. ABSTRACT About every three years natural catastrophic subsidence, caused by gypsum dissolution, occurs in the vicinity of Ripon, North Yorkshire, England. Holes up to 35 m across and 20 m deep have appeared without warning. In the past 150 years, 30 major collapses have occurred, and in the last ten years the resulting damage to property is estimated at about £1,000,000. Subsidence, associated with the collapse of caves resulting from gypsum dissolution in the Permian rocks of eastern England, occurs in a belt about 3 km wide and over 100 km long. Gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) dissolves rapidly in flowing water and the cave systems responsible for the subsidence are constantly enlarging, causing a continuing subsidence problem. Difficult ground conditions are associated with caves, subsidence breccia pipes (collapsed areas of brecciated and foundered material), crown holes and post-subsidence fill deposits.

  • Preliminary Geoenvironmental Investigation
    Fall 08 Preliminary Geoenvironmental Investigation Land at New Road, Sharow For Carter Jonas LLP Report no: 2103 /1 Date: June 2015 Tel: 01937 545330 • [email protected] • www.lithos.co.uk NEW ROAD, SHAROW SUMMARY OF GEOENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES Job No. 2103 Site area/ha 2.9 hectares (7.1 acres) Client: Carter Jonas LLP NGR: SE 330 718 Site: New Road, Sharow Nearest postcode: HG4 5BS The site is located approximately 1.5km east of Ripon city centre and is currently arable farmland. The site lies within an area known to be at risk of gypsum dissolution related subsidence. Therefore any development across the site must consider the consequences of gypsum related hazards. Lithos were commissioned by Carter Jonas LLP to provide a preliminary geoenvironmental appraisal of the site. It is understood that the site is to be developed with 60 residential dwellings, although a proposed layout has yet to be prepared, and it is strongly recommended that a geophysical survey is completed prior to finalising any scheme. A summary of salient geoenvironmental issues is provided in the table below. Issue Remarks Former uses None of significance. Anticipated Geology The site is likely to be underlain by about 10m of glacial drift, over Sherwood Sandstone bedrock extending to depths of about 25m, over the Roxby Formation, with the Brotherton Formation from about 45m. The shallowest beds of gypsum are likely to lie at depths in excess of 35m. Gypsum Gypsum is present at the base of the Roxby Formation (c. 10m thick at about 35m to 45m bgl), and in the Edlington Formation, up to 35m thick from about 70m bgl.
