    COLTON COMMUNITY PLAN 2015 Main photo: Rusland valley looking west towards the Coniston Fells. © Teresa Morris Map: Ordnance Survey. © Crown Copyright 2005 Colton Parish Community Plan 2015 Introduction Topics, Policies and Actions 1. The Local Economy 2. Landscape and the Natural Environment 3. Communities and Well-Being 4. Housing and Other Development 5. Roads, Traffic and Transport 6. Energy and Sustainability Annexes Annex A: Community Plan Working Group Members Annex B: Action Plan Annex C: Community Transport Schemes Map of Colton Parish (back page) 1 Introduction Purpose Community Plans set out the issues that local people value about their neighbourhoods, and their aspirations for the future. They tend to be based on civil parish areas (like Colton) or groups of parishes. It is essential that that such Plans properly reflect the values, opinions, needs and aspirations of the community, and that they should be community-led, facilitated by the Parish Council. Principal authorities (in Colton’s case: Cumbria County Council and South Lakeland District Council) and planning authorities (in Colton’s case: the Lake District National Park Authority), are increasingly using these Plans to guide local policy and inform planning decisions. The purpose of this Plan is to set out policies and action plans for the future of the Parish. To this end, invitations to join a Community Plan Working Group brought together people from all three wards of our large rural parish, including parish councillors and the parish clerk. Working group members and contributors are listed in Annex A. Background Colton Civil Parish is a sparsely populated rural area of about 20 square miles within the southern part of the Lake District National Park, spanning three valleys running north-south: Coniston Water and the Crake Valley to the west, Rusland in the centre and Windermere and the River Leven in the east.

  • The Lake District
    The Lake District The Lake District has inspired poets and enchanted visitors to the area for centuries and that has helped validate its position as the UK’s most visited National Park. At the top of Skarfell in clear weather there are views over to Ireland and as far as Snowdonia in Wales. If making your way to the top of England’s highest peak doesn’t appeal to you then the beautiful lakes of Ullswater, Windermere and almost a hundred more bodies of water are sure to offer you plenty of opportunity for excitement or serenity. If you would like to experience some culture whilst in the area you could visit the Theatre by the Lake which runs a year round program of productions and has been called the most beautifully situated theatre in the country. Hill Top was Beatrix Potter’s home for 38 years and remains today much as it was when she lived there. Immerse yourself in the space and surroundings that helped inspire her to write the stories loved throughout. Places to visit Lakeland Motor Museum Housed in a converted mill in the heart of the Lake District.
