Refined Options Consultation 1 Introduction Seeking your views on planning until 2026 Local Development Framework The Local Development Framework will be the master plan against which all planning applications in the National Park will be judged from 2011 to 2026. This important legal document will affect everyone who makes a planning application, whether they want to alter their property, build a new home, add an extension or create a business. This consultation gives you the opportunity to influence the direction of future development across the Peak District National Park for the next generation. So it is important that your voice is heard. The Local Development Framework will replace the 1994 Structure Plan and the 2001 Local Plan which the Peak District National Park Authority currently uses to judge planning decisions against. You are being asked to comment on the draft Core Strategy, which will be the Local Development Framework’s main policy document. It is written in seven themes. They are: 1. landscape 2. settlements 3. climate change and natural resources 4. housing 5. economy 6. transport 7. minerals Each theme has several different options for you to consider. These are followed by an explanation of the evidence used to come up with each option. All the options have been examined against a set of criteria that measures how sustainable or practical an option it is. Examples of the criteria used include the impact on the economy and the impact on air quality. When making comments you will see that in some cases you need to pick one option or the other. However, there are also some options that could happen alongside others. When making comments you can discuss all, some or even parts of options. Please explain why you are in favour of them or against them. 6 Peak District Peak District National Park Core Strategy. Refined Options Consultation As well as the seven themes you will also find a number of appendices describing the area and explaining the methodology of the research. There are also sections describing other information which has been used in preparing this consultation document. What has happened so far? The process began in 2005 with a document called ‘Help Shape The Future’, which looked at the general issues and options. In 2006 the National Park Management Plan was completed, which sets the overall context for the Local Development Framework. A public consultation period was held between March and May 2007 to look at some initial options. Following feedback it was decided that more detailed evidence was needed to help produce a firmer set of options. These options are the basis of this consultation. What happens next? This consultation runs until 10th April 2009. All responses will be looked at, preferred options selected, and community organisations consulted again. The authority will finalise the draft by the end of 2009. The document will then go to the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government to approve. If all goes to plan the new Local Development Framework is due to come into force in March 2011. Setting the context for planning policy – key facts about the Peak District National Park The Peak District became Britain’s first national park in 1951.It covers 555 square miles (1,438 ha2) This includes areas of gritstone moorland and edges, limestone upland and dales. The area has many attractive villages. The landscape is nationally and internationally important. Many areas are designated to give extra protection for geological, biological and historical features and sites. Peak District 7 Peak District National Park Core Strategy. Refined Options Consultation Picture 1.1 Settlements in and around the Peak District National Park Although the whole national park has the highest landscape protection in the UK, planning policy has to respond to different challenges for land use in each area. To do this the policy will look at a range of factors. These are: 1. Valued Characteristics The Peak District National Park Management Plan sets out the key factors that make the area so special for residents and visitors alike. They are the: Outstanding natural beauty and character of the landscape Significant geological features Sense of wildness and remoteness Clean earth, air and water Importance of wildlife and the area’s unique biodiversity Thousands of years of human influence which can be traced through the landscape Distinctive character of hamlets, villages and towns Wealth of historic buildings, gardens and parks Opportunities for quiet enjoyment Opportunities for outdoor recreation and adventure Easy accessibility for visitors from surrounding urban areas Vibrancy and sense of community Customs, legends, traditions and arts Environmentally friendly methods of farming and working the land Craft and cottage industries Special value attached to the national park by surrounding urban communities 8 Peak District Peak District National Park Core Strategy. Refined Options Consultation 2. A living and working place The Peak District National Park is a place where people live and work. The population is currently around 38,400. By 2026 it is thought the population will have fallen, although this partly depends on the number of new houses built. By 2026 the average age of the population is also expected to increase, with the area likely to see a significant increase in people aged 60 and above but a fall in the working age population. Most jobs in the National Park are in the service sector, particularly tourism – 19% of businesses are hotels and restaurants. Agriculture accounts for 19% of businesses in the National Park. Businesses in the National Park tend to have fewer employees and wages are often lower than regional and national averages. Half the people of working age travel to jobs outside the National Park. Four out of ten jobs in the National Park are done by workers who live outside the area. 3. Landscape In 2008 a Landscape Character Assessment (LCA) was produced for the Peak District National Park. This contains maps, photos and written descriptions of different land types and uses in the National Park. The LCA is available on our website The assessment provides planners with more detail about the types of landscape that make up the Dark Peak, White Peak and South West Peak areas of the National Park. Combined with all the other information listed above it gives planners more knowledge about the challenges and opportunities facing the area. All this information has been used to help draw up the options that are in this consultation document. Planning Policy in the Peak District National Park Planning rules in national parks are different than in other areas of the UK. This is because of Government laws introduced to protect national parks for the benefit of current and future generations. National Park authorities have two key purposes that guide all their work, including planning matters. These are:· To conserve and enhance the natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage of the area and To promote opportunities for understanding and enjoying the special qualities of these areas by the public. Peak District 9 Peak District National Park Core Strategy. Refined Options Consultation At the same time authorities also have a duty to ‘seek to foster the economic and social well-being of local communities within the national park'. Working to the National Park Management Plan To ensure the two purposes and the duty are being met the Peak District National Park Authority adopted a National Park Management Plan in 2006. That document sets out how the authority, working with a wide range of partners, will deliver an overall vision for the Peak District National Park area, as set out in Appendix B of this document. Planning policy is a crucial part of this process so the Local Development Framework options have been written to help deliver the aims of the National Park Management Plan. Regional and Local Plans No planning policy can be considered in isolation of what is happening around it. So as well as the national obligations described above we have also taken into account regional and local factors. Regional Level The Peak District National Park is unique because it covers four different Government regions. They are the: 1. East Midlands 2. Yorkshire and Humber 3. North West 4. West Midlands To avoid any confusion that this could cause, all planning policy matters in the whole Peak District National Park fall under the East Midlands region. See map below. 10 Peak District Peak District National Park Core Strategy. Refined Options Consultation Picture 1.2 Peak Sub Area in the context of the East Midlands region As a result, planning policy in the National Park must also comply with a regional planning document known as the Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS). Local Level The Peak District National Park covers part of 12 different local council areas. All of these councils, and other organisations that operate in the National Park, have a legal duty to take into account the national park purposes and duty described earlier.

    Public Agenda Item No. 8(i) DERBYSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL CABINET 31 January 2017 Report of the Strategic Director – Economy, Transport and Communities TRANS-PENNINE HIGHWAY PROJECTS (HIGHWAYS, TRANSPORT AND INFRASTRUCTURE) (1) Purpose of Report To update Cabinet on a number of projects relating to highway links across the South Pennines and to recommend a County Council policy statement on these. (2) Information and Analysis There are currently a number of inter- related pieces of work being undertaken on existing and potential roads across the South Pennines. Essentially, these are a combination of Highways England’s management and maintenance programmes for the strategic road network and priorities for highways improvement emerging from Transport for the North (TfN), which is the sub-national transport body for the north of England. Cabinet will be aware that, in terms of governance, Derbyshire sits within the equivalent Midlands Connect sub-national transport body, but there are clearly strong relationships between the two entities in relation to economic geography and travel. Worthy of note is the considerable amount of work underway relating to connections between Manchester and Sheffield, which inevitably pass through Derbyshire. The key current areas of work on trans-Pennine roads are: • The Mottram Bypass and A57(T) to A57 Link Road The Road Investment Strategy (RIS) which sets out the work of Highways England for the period up to the year 2020-21 includes major schemes which are expected to begin construction during the RIS period. The Mottram Bypass would carry the Trunk Road around the village of Mottram-in-Longdendale (in Tameside) and provide a link between this and the A57 Principal Road near Woolley Bridge in Derbyshire.

In this pack you should find sufficient information to enable you to settle into the area, find out about the facilities on offer, and details of many of the clubs and societies. If specific information about your particular interest or need is not shown, then pop into the Town Hall Information Point and ask there. If they don't know the answer, they usually know someone who does! The Parish Council produces a quarterly Newsletter which is available from the Town Hall or the Post Office. Chapel is a small friendly town with a long history, in a beautiful location, almost surrounded by the Peak District National Park. It's about 800 feet above sea level, and its neighbour, Dove Holes, is about 1000 feet above, so while the weather can be sometimes wild, on good days its situation is magnificent. The Parish Council takes pride in maintaining the facilities it directly controls, and ensures that as far as possible, the other Councils who provide many of the local services - High Peak Borough Council (HPBC) and Derbyshire County Council (DCC) also serve the area well.

  • The Reverend Doctor Richard Leslie Hills MBE 1936-2019
    27/05/2019 15:54 Richard Leslie Hills Page 1 of 3 The Reverend Doctor Richard Leslie Hills MBE 1936-2019 Richard Hills was born in 1936 in Lewisham in south London. His father Leslie was an Anglican vicar and his mother Margaret (Peggy) was a daughter of Sir John Ontario Miller, Home Secretary to the Governor of India. Peggy died of cancer when Richard was two years old and a year later Leslie was called up to serve as a chaplain in the war. Richard went to live with his Aunt Kathleen in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, and later attended Charterhouse School in Surrey. Whilst there he became interested in engineering and nearly completed a model of Stephenson’s Invicta locomotive. Richard was called up for National Service in 1955 and attained the rank of Second Lieutenant in the Royal Artillery. He went on to read history at Queens’ College, Cambridge. There he flirted with various vintage cars, including Alvises which he described as sturdy British bulldogs. He bought a 1924 Lancia Lambda which was ‘a rather elegant Italian lady’. Over the next 52 years he rebuilt it, ran it regularly and rallied it. He was an active member of the Mountaineering Society and also the Railway Club through which he was introduced to the narrow gauge lines of North Wales. After graduation he started a Diploma of Education course at Cambridge but his studies were interrupted by a climbing accident. Richard was an instructor for Outward Bound in The Lake District. He was leading a small party of boys on a climb on Needle Ridge on Great Gable when a boulder came loose, crushing his left leg.
