IMPORTANT GUIDANCE TO THE USE OF THIS WATER CYCLE STUDY The Haven Gateway water Cycle Study was undertaken as a sub-regional study which covered a number of local authority areas. As such the level of detail entered in to for the study may be lower than a study carried out at a local planning authority or development area. The Stage 2 of the study was prepared over a period of 18 months from May 2008 to October 2009. During this period there have been a number of developing initiatives, particularly within the planning policy development, and the local authorities are at various stages within the processes which has meant that differing levels of information have been available across the sub-region. The report is based primarily on data valid at the end of 2008 and has not, in general, included changes to data or policies since that date.

  • Conservation Area Appraisal
    Appendix A conservation area appraisal Introduction The conservation area in Brent Eleigh was originally designated by West Suffolk County Council in 1973, and inherited by Babergh District Council at its inception in 1974. The Council has a duty to review its conservation area designations from time to time, and this appraisal examines Brent Eleigh under a number of different headings as set out in English Heritage’s ‘Guidance on Conservation Area Appraisals’ (2006) and having regard to Historic England’s new guidance (2016). This brings the village in line with Babergh’s other conservation area appraisals in the same format. As such it is a straightforward appraisal of Brent Eleigh’s built environment in conservation terms. As a document it is neither prescriptive nor overly descriptive, but more a demonstration of ‘quality of place’, sufficient to inform the Planning Officer and others considering changes or assessing proposed works there. The photographs and maps are thus intended to contribute as much as the text itself. As the Historic England guidelines point out, the appraisal is to be read as a general overview, rather than as a comprehensive listing, and the omission of any particular building, feature or space does not imply that it is of no interest in conservation terms. Text, photographs and map overlays by Patrick Taylor, Conservation Architect, for Babergh District Council 2019. Topographical Framework The village of Brent Eleigh is situated in south-central Suffolk, about seven miles north-west of the market town of Hadleigh and two miles south-east of Lavenham. Both Hadleigh and Lavenham were at one time served by branch lines of the eastern railway, both now closed down.

  • Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance August 2015
    Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance August 2015 Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance 2015 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The landscape of Babergh and Mid Suffolk (South and North Suffolk) is acknowledged as being attractive and an important part of why people choose to live and work here. However current pressures for development in the countryside, and the changing agricultural and recreational practices and pressures, are resulting in changes that in some instances have been damaging to the local character and distinctiveness of the landscape. 1.1.1 Some development is necessary within the countryside, in order to promote a sustainable prosperous and vibrant rural economy. However, such development would be counterproductive if it were to harm the quality of the countryside/landscape it is set within and therefore the quality of life benefits, in terms of health and wellbeing that come from a rural landscape in good condition.1 1.1.2 The Council takes the view that there is a need to safeguard the character of both districts countryside by ensuring new development integrates positively with the existing character. Therefore, a Landscape Guidance has been produced to outline the main elements of the existing character and to outline broad principles that all development in the countryside will be required to follow. 1.1.3 Well designed and appropriately located development in the countryside can capture the benefits of sustainable economic development whilst still retaining and enhancing valuable landscape characteristics, which are so important to Babergh and Mid Suffolk. 1.1.4 The protection and enhancement of both districts landscape is essential not only for the intrinsic aesthetic and historic value that supports tourism and the economy for the area but also to maintain the quality of life for the communities that live in the countryside.

  • Babergh and Mid Suffolk Environment
    Babergh and Mid Suffolk Joint Local Plan Statement of Common Ground Between Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils (B&MSDC) and The Environment Agency (EA) (Interim) October 2020 1. Areas covered by the Statement of Common Ground The Statement of Common Ground relates to the area covered by the local planning authorities of Babergh District Council and Mid Suffolk District Council. 1 2. Signatories to this Statement of Common Ground The signatories to this Statement of Common Ground are: • Babergh District Council; • Mid Suffolk District Council; and • The Environment Agency. 3. Purpose and Scope of Statement of Common Ground Local planning authorities have a statutory duty to co-operate with specified bodies in relation to strategic planning matters. The Environment Agency is a prescribed body subject to the duty to co-operate as set out in the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 (as amended) and is required to be involved in the plan-making process. Objections were raised by the Environment Agency to the consultation on the Babergh and Mid Suffolk Joint Local Plan Preferred Options document (July 2019), that the flood risk section of the Joint Local Plan was insufficient. Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils have sought to address these concerns as detailed in this Statement of Common Ground. The scope of this Statement of Common Ground at this time is for agreement to the methodology and assumptions guiding the Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) being undertaken for Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils, and that the correct data is being used. The Environment Agency is satisfied that the Level 1 SFRA is now acceptable.
