DC.70/03 DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST Councillors Mrs. B.A, Clare and W.M. Blenkinsopp stated that they would be declaring a personal interest in item 7 – Application No. 9 – Single storey extension to rear Bewick Crescent Surgery, Newton Aycliffe, as they attended that surgery. Councillor W.M. Blenkinsopp also stated that he would be declaring a prejudicial interest in item 11 – County Decisions, as he was a Member of Durham County Council. DC.71/03 TREE PRESERVATION ORDER NO. 9/2003 : RESERVOIR HOUSE, SHILDON Consideration was given to a report of Head of Planning Services (for copy see file of Minutes) seeking confirmation of Tree Preservation Order No. 9/2003 at Reservoir House, Shildon. (For copy see file of Minutes). It was explained that the Provisional Order made on 8th July 2003 comprised seven Sycamore trees and two groups of hedgerow trees within the site. It was explained that six of the Sycamore trees were located within the garden of Reservoir House, the remaining Sycamore and the two groups of hedgerow trees were located adjacent to the southern Page 1 boundary of Northumbrian Water’s covered reservoir site. The trees formed an important feature on the approaches to Shildon from Bishop Auckland. It was explained that the Order replaced the Provisional Order made on 3rd July 1998, that Development Control Committee was also advised on the 8th September 1998, which was not confirmed by Development Control Committee within the required six month period after serving. The Order therefore re-established the protection. The Order also included those trees not previously identified on Northumbrian Water’s land as it was unclear from a Land Registry Search as to where the precise boundary lay, even though there was a post and rail fence on the ground. RESOLVED: That the Tree Preservation Order No. 9/2003 – Reservoir House, Shildon, be confirmed without modification. DC.72/03 TREE PRESERVATION ORDER NO. 10/2003 : 29 ELM ROAD AND 2 HIGHLAND GARDENS, SHILDON Consideration was given to a report of Head of Planning Services (for copy see file of Minutes) seeking confirmation of Provisional Tree Preservation Order No. 10/2003 on land at 29 Elm Road and 2 Highland Gardens, Shildon. (For copy see file of Minutes). It was explained that since the preparation of the report, a letter had been received from Shildon Elm Road WMC and Institute Limited requesting that the Tree Preservation Order be removed. In the light of this letter it was suggested that this item be deferred pending further discussions. RESOLVED: That consideration of this item be deferred pending further discussions. DC.73/03 PROGRESS REPORT ON WHITWORTH PARK Consideration was given to a report of Head of Planning Services (for copy see file of Minutes) attempting to clarify whether or not the land, subject of a planning application for the erection of 230 dwellings at Whitworth Park, was greenfield or brownfield. It was explained that Development Control Committee, on 22nd August 2003, had considered an application for the erection of 230 dwellings at Whitworth Park. The recommendation of that meeting was to grant approval to the scheme, subject to a Section 106 Legal Agreement. Referral of the application was necessary to GONE, because the application site, although considered at the time to be previously developed land or “brownfield”, formed part of a “greenfield” allocation in the Borough Local Plan. D:\moderngov\Data\AgendaItemDocs\0\8\6\AI00003680\Minutes0.doc Page2 2 In the intervening period, a great deal of discussion had taken place with GONE regarding the validity of the “brownfield” status of the site. The status of the site needed, therefore, to be re-assessed and examined. It was explained that as strict definition imposed by Annex C of PPG3, it appeared that Whitworth Park site could not be classified as previously developed land and should be regarded as greenfield land. The Committee was informed that a letter had been received from the applicant’s agents which was read out and gave details of the applicant’s intentions for progressing the application. It was explained that Chris Harrison was present at the meeting to speak on behalf of Nathaniel Lichfield and Partners – the applicant’s agents. He explained that what constituted a brownfield site was land not suitable for alternative form of use, e.g. agriculture. A series of policy tests had been undertaken to check against the criteria. It was explained that one of the tests was sustainability and that this site was one of the most suitable sites for housing in the area and was crucial for the regeneration of the town centre. Reference was made to the effect on wildlife in the area. It was explained that the site was in the south east corner, very close to the town centre, and Durham Wildlife Trust considered that there would be very little effect on wildlife. Discussion was also held on whether the change in status to the land would involve further consultation with members of the public. It was explained that there had been consultation on the initial application and that the change in status of the site did not require further consultation. RESOLVED: That the Development Control Committee formally acknowledges a change in status of Whitworth Park site, for 230 dwellings from brownfield land to greenfield land and urge GONE to conclude its deliberations on the application on that basis and the contents of the report as a matter of urgency. DC.74/03 APPLICATIONS – BOROUGH MATTERS The Committee considered a schedule for consent to develop.

  • North Eastern Railway Civil Engineering Drawings List
    North Eastern Railway Civil Engineering Drawings List Description: The collection includes a minority of architectural plans, along with drawings of structures such as bridges and viaducts, maps of permanent way routes and alterations, signalling plans and diagrams, with a variety of miscellaneous components for structures and infrastructure. The collection comprises approximately 3500 plans, diagrams and maps on paper, wax linen and linen- backed cartridge paper. System of arrangement: The original arrangement of the drawings has been lost and they derive from a wide variety of applications within the architectural and civil engineering genres. The drawings have therefore been listed in the rolls in which they were found, and every effort made to record the variety of numbering systems used at different times by the railway company departments involved in creating and storing the drawings, representative of the different types of drawing. There is no one single and consistent numbering arrangement. Physical Characteristics: The drawings survive in a variety of formats and sizes – there are wax linen tracings, colour washed linenbacked original office drawings, drawings on cartridge paper, blueprints and other copying processes. Administrative/Biographical History: The North Eastern Railway Company was formed in 1854 as an amalgamation of the York & North Midland Railway, the Leeds Northern Railway and the York, Newcastle & Berwick Railway. It continued to absorb other companies in the north eastern region of England over subsequent decades, including the Stockton & Darlington Railway, South Durham and Lancashire Union Railway and the West Hartlepool Railway. In 1923 the various railway companies of the United Kingdom were grouped into four large amalgamations.

As the UK economy faltered over the last 3 years, many Science Parks have seen enquiry levels drop and new investment slow to a trickle. Belasis Hall has been able to sustain its growth thanks to its ongoing commitment to create a successful environment for high tech companies involved in new technologies, despite the economic climate. Bucking the general trend, the Park has continued its development programme with partner English Partnerships now building their fifth r phase of high quality pavilions. Other companies have chosen to set £ up home here by building their own premises on fully sen-iced greenfie'.d sites within the 167 acre landscaped environment. The on-site facilities, such as the restaurant, travel agen: and business services available from the Belasis Business Centre, will be expanded to include a new hotel and conference centre with leisure facilities. Added to these, are the unique facilities, services and resources available from neighbouring 1C1. Residents of the Park can 'plug-in' to the vast technical and analytical resources of one of Europe's largest and diverse chemical companies, such as the library and research facilities, open learning, occupational health and conference centres. Companies here can also enjoy many social and leisure amenities, too, such as hosting clients in superb surroundings at ICI's Norton Hail and Wilton Castle, with its beautiful golf course.
