Site Location 1. The development is proposed to sit within the confines of the existing Kemsley Mill site, which lies to the north of Sittingbourne and within the defined built up area boundary. It is a prominent and recognisable feature of the town’s landscape, and visible from numerous locations on both the mainland and the Isle of Sheppey. 2. The Swale (a coastal SSSI and SPA designated for its biodiversity value, particularly for migratory birds) lies to the east/southeast of the site beyond areas of open ground, and public footpath ZU1 (the Saxon Shore Way) approximately follows the coastline past the mill. To the south of the mill is Castle Rough, a scheduled monument (HER Number: TQ 96 NW 10) comprising a Danish fortress / medieval moated manor house that is now largely subsumed by the landscape and apparent only through changing land levels. 3. To the west of the site is an agricultural field, beyond which lies Swale Way (a main arterial road through Sittingbourne). -

Introduction Topography of the Island
THE COMPOSITION AND BEHAVIOUR OF THE GREY SEA COLONY OF LUNDY NIGEL A. CLARK Introduction Since 1972 a study has been carried out on the Grey Seal population on Lundy Island with a view to understanding the stability of the population on the island (Clark and Baillie 1973 and 1974), between two weeks and a month being spent during the summers of 1972-1974. It has been thought previously that seals stayed around Lundy for short periods only and Hook (1957) stated that he believed that Lundy was only 'maturing ground' for young seals. From 1972 onwards we started to take notes on the identification of all specimens that showed distinctive markings or scars, in an attempt to find out whether Lundy was only a staging post for seals moving between the Pembrokeshire colonies and the coasts of Devon and Cornwall. Breeding had been proved to occur only in Seals' Hole and here it was thought to occur only occasionally. However, Hook found one or two seals present each breeding season of the five at which he looked. He stated that many other caves were entered but that he found no pups. Our data from 1974 and 1975 shows that breeding is a more regular phenomenon than believed and this paper will discuss whether this has always been the case or is due to a recent spread of the species. Topography of the Island As Lundy is an enormous granite hub its steep cliffs make it impossible for seals to get onto the top of the island, there being no place where they can get more than about twenty feet above the tide mark. -

Introduction to National Trails Part 1: Their Origins in the UK
Extract from lecture: Introduction to National Trails Part 1: their origins in the UK Dave McGlade Hadrian’s Wall Path National Trail Officer 6th September 2015 Origins in UK: Report of National Parks Committee 1931 (Addison report) In discussing the South Downs: “There would be provided a 70 mile walk along a green ridgeway, through typical English country, with convenient halts and camping sites at regular intervals” (Is this the first documented proposal for a long-distance route in UK?) Source: Daily Telegraph 23rd April 2005 Origins in UK: Report of the Committee on Land Utilisation in Rural Areas 1942 (Scott report) “The principle that the countryside is the heritage of all involves the corollary that there must be facility of access for all” “The recognition of such schemes for main hikers’ highways as the proposed Pennine Way” “The re-opening of the old coastguard path as a right of way for walkers round the whole coastline of England and Wales” Origins in UK: National Parks in England and Wales (Dower report, 1945) “A first main installment of decisions (which should include schemes for the Pennine Way and other long- distance walking routes referred to in the Scott report) should be reached and put into execution as soon as possible”. (p38) Origins in UK: Report of the National Parks Committee 1947 (Hobhouse) “We also attach importance to the provision of long distance paths and bridleways in and between National Parks and Conservation Areas. There should be continuous routes which will enable walkers and riders to travel the length and breadth of the Parks, moving as little as possible on the motor roads. -

Countryside Jobs Service Focus on Recreation In association with the Outdoor Recreation Network 20 May 2019 Sharing Good Practice – People and Dogs in the Outdoors By Dr Elizabeth Rogers The Outdoor Recreation Network recently delivered a seminar on the topic of “People and Dogs in the Outdoors” hosted by Forestry England and The Kennel Club. Over the course of the two days, delegates heard from key policy makers, stakeholders, academics and practitioners about important policy and practice matters relating to the opportunities and management of dogs in the outdoors. The event focused particularly on practical management measures and good practice and facilitated networking opportunities. Delegates greatly appreciated the information sharing and the key learnings from the seminar are summarised below: Dogs are part of the family Whether it’s a trip to the local park or a family holiday, many families will want to take their canine member with them. Since 2010, dog ownership is up 10% and is now at 8.5 million dogs. 26% of homes have a dog and astonishingly over half of all outdoor visits include a People and Dogs in the Outdoors seminar dog.1 delegate pack (Outdoor Recreation Network) For outdoor recreation sites there are commercial benefits to welcoming dogs. These include: Dog owners and families with dogs are a large and growing market; They visit off peak and are less weather dependent; 7,000 assistance dogs help people in ever-more ways.2 Given the importance of dogs to families, the focus should be on managing the demand rather than suppressing it.3 Dogs keep us healthy There are significant physical and mental health benefits from having a dog.
