Introduction 1.1 Introduction This Appendix presents the planning background and methodology for the assessment ofthe New Carrington land allocation area (herein referred to as ‘the Site’), an overview of the historical background to the Site, and identifies and describes the Historic Environment Character Areas (HECAs) into which the Site has been usefully divided. A total of 22 HECAs have been defined, as well a number of designated built heritage assets within, and in close proximity to, the Site. These, along with the undesignated built heritage, have been subject to significance assessments, including considerations of setting (Appendix 3). The archaeological sensitivity and potential are concentrated particularly in and around Warburton Park, and within the former moss and the undeveloped areas of the mossland fringe (Appendix 2). Areas of enhancement have also been identified, where it is recommended that consideration is given to the opportunity for incorporating and preserving elements of the historic environment within the masterplan for the site (Appendix 4). 1.2 Planning Background In October 2019, the Centre for Applied Archaeology was commissioned by Trafford Council to undertake a detailed historic environment assessment of the Site, which has been identified for development within the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework (GMSF).

The Land Allocations Plan has been developed to support the delivery of the Trafford Local Plan: Core Strategy. Upon adoption it will set out new site allocations for a variety of land uses including housing, employment and open spaces. Recommendation That Members of Planning and Development Control Committee note the publication of the Trafford Local Plan: Land Allocations – Consultation Draft. Contact person for access to background papers and further information: Name: Rob Haslam (Head of Planning) Extension: 4788 Background Papers: Trafford Local Plan: Land Allocations – Consultation Draft and associated evidence documents which can be found at: http://www.trafford.gov.uk/planning/strategic- planning/local-development-framework/trafford-local-plan-land-allocations.aspx 1.0 Background 1.1 The Trafford Local Plan: Land Allocations Development Plan Document (LAP) will provide site-specific guidance for the development of allocated sites and areas and will provide more general development management guidance; it is accompanied by a Policies Map. It covers the whole borough, except that area subject to the proposed Altrincham Business Neighbourhood Plan. 1.2 The purpose of the Trafford LAP is to: • identify and prioritise the sites necessary to meet the sustainable needs of the borough; 1 • Identify the natural and built assets which should be protected/enhanced; • Identify the key design, environmental and infrastructure requirements for allocated sites and; • Ensure that new development is delivered within an identified timescale.

  • The Extensions to the Davyhulme Sewage Works
    7041 The extensions to theDavyhulme Sewage Works (1 957-67) The Paper describes the design and construction of extensions to the Davyhulme Sewage Works which have been carried out over the past ten years at a cost of approximately E6 million.These extensions comprise inlet works, primary sedi- mentation plant, a 45 mgd Simplex aeration plant, final sedimentation tanks, storm sewage tanks, primary sludge digestion plant, secondary sludge thickening plant, power generation plant and jetties. A general accountof the whole plant is given with a more detailed description of those features which the Author considers to be of particular interest. A list of the contractors and a table of costs are appended. Introduction In 1954, when the new extensions were first considered,the Davyhulme Sewage Works consisted of two separateplants with a common inlet works. An activated sludge plant completed in 1934, comprising a diffused air unit and small experimental unitson theSheffield Bio-aerationand the Simplex systems, treated a dry weather flowof 19 mgd and theremaining 35 mgd weretreated on primary and secondary contact beds completed in 1907. These beds were in very poor condition and the effluent quality was bad. 2. The City Council therefore decidedto retain theexisting activated sludge plant and to replace the contact beds by a new plant with a dry weather flow capacity of 45 mgd bringing the total capacity of the Works to 64 mgd. 3. In fact the rate of flow has risen more quickly than forecast and at the present time the dry weather flow is 68 mgd of which 24 mgd is trade waste.

  • Maps, Memories and Manchester: the Cartographic Imagination of the Hidden Networks of the Hydraulic City
    Paper for Mapping, Memory and the City: An International Interdisciplinary Conference. University of Liverpool, 25-26th February 2010. Maps, Memories and Manchester: The Cartographic Imagination of the Hidden Networks of the Hydraulic City Martin Dodge and Chris Perkins Department of Geography, University of Manchester (Email: [email protected]; [email protected]) Abstract The largely unseen channelling, culverting and controlling of water into, through and out of cities is the focus of our cartographic interpretation. This paper draws on empirical material depicting hydraulic infrastructure underlying the growth of Manchester in mapped form. Focusing, in particular, on the 19th century burst of large-scale hydraulic engineering, which supplied vastly increased amounts of clean drinking water, controlled unruly rivers to eliminate flooding, and safely removed sewage, this paper explores the contribution of mapping to the making of a more sanitary city, and towards bold civic minded urban intervention. These extensive infrastructures planned and engineered during Victorian and Edwardian Manchester are now taken-for-granted but remain essential for urban life. The maps, plans and diagrams of hydraulic Manchester fixed particular forms of elite knowledge (around planning foresight, topographical precision, civil engineering and sanitary science) but also facilitated and freed flows of water throughout the city. The survival of these maps and plans in libraries, technical books and obscure reports allows the changing cultural work of water to be explored and evokes a range of socially specific memories of a hidden city. Our aetiology of hydraulic cartographics is conducted using ideas from science and technology studies, semiology, and critical cartography with the goal of revealing how they work as virtual witnesses to an 1 unseen city, dramatizing engineering prowess and envisioning complex and messy materiality into a logical, holistic and fluid network underpinning the urban machine.
