    APPENDIX A A PROPOSAL TO DESIGNATE AN AREA AT SIXFIELDS/WEEDON ROAD AS A DISTRICT CENTRE Northampton Borough Council Planning, Transportation and Regeneration April 2003 Contents Introduction 1 Why Designate Sixfields/Weedon Road as a District Centre? 2 Context 3 Description 3 Permeability 5 Public Transport 8 Urban Form 10 Highways 12 Mix of Uses 13 Definition of the Boundary 13 Consultation 15 Appendix A 16 Mr D Alderson Head of Planning, Transportation and Regeneration Cliftonville House Bedford Road Northampton NN4 7NR 01604 837837 (Switchboard) Email [email protected] PROPOSED SIXFIELDS DISTRICT CENTRE – MARCH 2003 CONSULTATION DRAFT Introduction The Borough Council is consulting on a proposal to designate an area at Weedon Road and Sixfields as a District Centre. The Borough Council, together with English Partnerships have commissioned consultants (Halcrow) to undertake a feasibility study of the regeneration potential of three sites in the Borough (Sixfields, Harvey Reeves Road and Ransome Road). The study, published in February 2003, identified proposals for the Sixfields area, including possible further retail or leisure development, in the area currently used as a Car Park and Recycling Centre. The study examined a range of issues including ownership, geotechnical and contamination issues. It is available as a separate report1. In view of the fact that these issues have already been considered, they need not be covered in this report. The Council has adopted the preferred strategies identified by Halcrow for the three sites. In respect of the Sixfields area the preferred strategy is set out below; • Package 1: Park and ride, civic amenity sites and land to the south redeveloped for retail/leisure/car showroom or alternatively offices.

    Extended Phase 1 Report JLL Sports Field adjacent to Wootton Hall Park, Northampton – including additional area and access Ref: 15-3271 3983 01 Version: 4 Date: June 2016 Author: James Hildreth Reviewer: Samantha Hodgson Address: 7-8 Melbourne House Corbygate Business Park Weldon Corby Northamptonshire NN17 5JG Tel: 01536 408840 Executive Summary Executive Summary Lockhart Garratt Ltd was commissioned by JLL to carry out an Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey including desk study for land at Wootton Hall Park. The survey also included a ground based evaluation of the trees within the site boundary for their potential to support roosting bats. An additional area and access was added to the proposals in early June 2016 and a second site visits and updated report was prepared. There were 5 statutory designated sites revealed within the desk study and 12 non-statutory sites within 2km of the Site, with Wootton Railway embankment, a local wildlife site, approximately 1km away. A range of protected mammal, amphibian and reptile species were identified within 2km of the Site by the desk study. The Extended Phase 1 Survey was undertaken on 8th March 2016 with an update to the assessment completed on 1st June 2016. The habitat within the Site consisted of an extensive area of regularly managed amenity grassland used as a sports pitch, with associated hardstanding. The hardstanding and amenity grassland were considered to be of low ecological value. The mature scattered trees along the western and southern boundary of the Site had a higher ecological value. The additional area consisted of access road and parking (hardstanding) with amenity grassland and standard trees the same as found in the original survey of the adjoining area.

  • Northamptonshire Past & Present
    ~nqirnt and MODERN .... large or small. Fine building is synonymous with Robert Marriott Ltd., a member of the Robert Marriott Group, famous for quality building since 1890. In the past 80 years Marriotts have established a reputation for meticulous craftsmanship on the largest and small­ est scales. Whether it is a £7,000,000 housing contract near Bletchley, a new head­ quarters for Buckinghamshire County Council at Aylesbury (right) or restor­ ation and alterations to Easton Maudit Church (left) Marriotts have the experi­ ence, the expertise and the men to carry out work of the most exacting standards and to a strict schedule. In the last century Marriotts made a name for itself by the skill of its crafts­ men employed on restoring buildings of great historical importance. A re­ markable tribute to the firm's founder, the late Mr. Robert Marriott was paid in 1948 by Sir Albert Richardson, later President of the Royal Academy, when he said: "He was a master builder of the calibre of the Grimbolds and other famous country men. He spared no pains and placed ultimate good before financial gain. No mean craftsman him­ self, he demanded similar excellence from his helpers." Three-quarters of a century later Marriotts' highly specialised Special Projects Division displays the same inherent skills in the same delicate work on buildings throughout the Midlands. To date Hatfield House, Long Melford Hall in Suffolk, the Branch Library at Earls Barton, the restoration of Castle Cottage at Higham Ferrers, Fisons Ltd., Cambridge, Greens Norton School, Woburn Abbey restorations and the Falcon Inn, Castle Ashby, all bear witness to the craftsmanship of Marriotts.

  • Neighbourhood Plan, Following Earlier Input from Local People, Businesses and Other Organisations Which Have Shaped It
    Made Version December 2015 Foreword This is the final Made Version of the Duston Neighbourhood Plan, following earlier input from local people, businesses and other organisations which have shaped it. This version contains a summary of the evidence base, the Vision & Objectives, Planning Policies and other Community Proposals and details on implementation. Several background and evidence documents are also available: - The Consultation Statement: This describes how local people, businesses and other bodies have been consulted on the Plan and comments, which have been made. - The Basic Conditions Statement: This explains how the Plan meets legal requirements and it also includes the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) screening. In addition, the Issues & Options Report & Parish Profile, the Policy Context, Townscape Study, reports on open space and employment are available on request as separate documents. For those who want to know a little more about the Made Plan and how it fits into the planning system, the following summary may be helpful. Neighbourhood Plans are part of the new planning system, which was introduced by the Government under the Localism initiative. This was to give people a greater say about the location and scale of development in the area and to help to protect valued landscape and community assets. They can establish general planning policies for the development and use of land. The Neighbourhood Plan forms part of the Local Development Plan for the local authority and will be used to consider planning applications. The Made Plan can influence the choice of sites and the design and layout of new housing; Neighbourhood Plans cannot propose less development than in the approved Local Plan and must reflect national planning guidance.
