Cumbria Highways – No objections. Ministry of Defence – No objections. Arquira – No reply to date. Environmental Health – No objections subject to conditions attached. Civil Aviation Authority – Consultations for wind energy related development is exceeding the resource available to respond within LPA timeframes. Should consult with NATS and MoD and relevant aerodromes. The CAA has no responsibility for safeguarding sites other than within its own property. RSPB – No reply to date. Natural England – No objections on the impact on designated sites. It is not clear from the submitted information what the impact on protected species will be (bats). We request further details be provided, however if the turbine was moved to within 50m of a linear feature/building(s) then further surveys would not be needed. NATS – No safeguarding objection. County Planning – Do not consider the proposal to be a Category 1 application and that the County Council will not be responding from a strategic planning perspective. Fire Officer – No objections. United Utilities – No objections. Cumbria Wildlife Trust – No reply to date. Stobbart Air(Carlisle airport) – Government policy to encourage generation of electricity from renewable resources has led to a proliferation of wind turbine planning applications across the UK. It is therefore vitally important for the Airport operator to properly assess the potential effect of each development in order to safeguard the continued safety of aircraft operations. Initial assessment of the proposal reveals a potential conflict with Carlisle Airport safeguarding criteria. Consequently a more in- depth assessment of your proposed development is required (30 March 2012) Upon receipt of the Aviation Assessment we can confirm the proposal would not have any impact on safe aviation operations at Carlisle Airport (5 July 2012) The application has been advertised on site and adjoining owners have been notified. A letter of objection has been received from FORCE who recommend the application be refused. Although supporting renewable energy, they are concerned about the irreversible loss and damage to out rural landscape, through inappropriate development, combined with the negative impacts on local rural communities. • Proximity to houses/amenity – there are numerous houses within close proximity of turbine (300m – 600m). The effect on amenity both within and outside of people homes would be severe. • Cumulative impacts and effects – There has been an increase in the number of smaller scale turbines been erected in Allerdale. In considering, cumulative effects, the landscape assessment failed to mention other nearby proposals. • We suggest that ZTVs should be submitted as part of the application. Report Planning permission is sought for installation of one turbine on 24 metre mast, Moordyke, Aikton, Wigton. Proposal The proposal is for one, WES18 wind turbine, with two blades. The proposed turbine is to be installed on a mast that will have a hub height of approximately 24.830m, rotar diameter of 18m and a maximum tip height of approximately 34.5m. The turbine would be sited within a field, to the west of the farm buildings at Moordyke, to which the land relates. The turbine will be located approximately 26m from the nearest farm building. The proposal includes: • Base work to secure the turbines to the site • Underground wires to connect to the national grid Requirement for Environmental Impact Assessment The Local Planning Authority have issued a screening opinion as part of the application that the proposed development does not constitute EIA development and an EIA is not required to be submitted with an application for planning permission. Site The application site is located within an agricultural holding in the open countryside to the north of the built settlement of Aikton. The site is located to the west of the farm complex away from the public road. The proposed wind turbine location is approximately 300m west of the nearest public road. The farm house is located approximately 130m east of the proposed wind turbine. Access to the proposed turbine will be via the existing entrance to the farm buildings. The land surrounding the site is relatively flat and consists largely of intensively managed farmland. The turbine is located to the west of modern farm buildings and there is a hedge with sparodic trees along the boundary to the north. Isolated trees and hedgerows border nearby fields and roads. The surrounding area is generally fields, interspersed by traditional field hedging and isolated dwellings/farm buildings. Policy National planning guidance is supportive of renewable energy production and regional targets are in place to encourage its development. National energy policy recognises that the UK has some of the richest renewable resources in Europe, particularly wind resources, which if captured can make a significant contribution to our long term energy goals on climate change and security of supply. In terms of the planning system, this factor is a material consideration that should be given significant weight when considering renewable proposals. As core principles, the National Planning Policy Framework includes the requirement to take account of the different roles and character of different areas, recognising the intrinsic character and beauty of the countryside and encourage the use of renewable resources. The NPPF states that the delivery of low carbon energy and associated infrastructure is central to the economic social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development. In determining planning applications, LPA’s should: • not require applicants for energy development to demonstrate the overall need for renewable or low carbon energy and also recognise that even small-scale projects provide a valuable contribution to cutting greenhouse gas emissions; and • approve the application if its impacts are (or can be made) acceptable. This positive approach to renewables is underpinned by the Climate Change Act and binding legal targets to reduce carbon emissions. At the regional level, the North West of England Plan Regional Spatial Strategy to 2021 (RSS) Policy DP9 supports the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and EM17 encourages the installation of renewable energy generation, where certain criteria are met. The RSS also contains regional targets for Cumbria. Whilst the Localism Act proposes the abolition of the RSS, a consideration that may be given some weight, the RSS remains part of the Development Plan for the present time. Further, the intention to abolish the RSS in this instance is considered to carry less weight because the underlying binding targets of the Climate Change Act will remain. Saved Policy R44 of the Joint Structure Plan states that outside the Lake District and AONB proposals for renewable energy, including any ancillary infrastructure or buildings, will be favourably considered subject to a number of criteria relating to landscape character, biodiversity and natural and built heritage, local amenity, local economy, highways or telecommunications. Specifically for wind turbines, the policy indicates that measures should be included to secure satisfactory removal of structures/related infrastructure and remediation of land following cessation of operation of the installation. The County Council has also produced the Cumbria Wind Energy Supplementary Planning Document. Policy EN25 of the Allerdale Local Plan restricts development within the open countryside to that which is ‘essential’ to meet a local need. No Allerdale Borough Council policies specifically relating to renewable energy have been ‘saved’ . However, the weight to be given to policy EN25 now depends on compatibility with the NPPF which specifies approval of such applications if its impacts are (or can be made) acceptable. Assessment Needs/Benefits The needs and benefits of the proposal are important elements in the overall planning balance. Guidance in the national energy policy, RSS Policy EM17 and Structure Plan Policy R44 indicates that

  • Elementary Education
    Education before 1944 Guidance notes April 2013 1 Education before 1944: Private, voluntary and state Introduction The expansion, financing and control of school provision Questions and approaches Sources Select Bibliography Introduction There is a wealth of source material, most of it, not surprisingly, created by would-be or actual providers and the government rather than the recipients of the schooling. The purpose, financing, control and content of schooling, then as now, were regularly debated and contested and the sources provide rich pickings for historians. The social background, training and career paths of the newly emerging teaching profession have also attracted attention. Measuring schooling’s impact in relation to other factors which affected children’s lives, however, has always proved more intractable. In the absence of any substantive qualitative evidence a variety of quantitative measures have been used including the ability of marriage partners to sign their names in marriage registers but also the number of children achieving certain ‘standards’ in basic subjects. The expansion, financing and control of school provision Although the state had sought to stipulate the content of religious education in grammar schools since the 1560s in its role as guardian of the newly established Church of England, until the 1830s all schooling was provided without state aid or any secular inspection. There was no ‘system’ as such; provision varied across the country. It potentially reached only a minority of the population, was highly gendered and tailored towards one’s social class and position in society. It was rarely free but depending on the availability of other income, fees could be subsidized or met for some pupils.

    Allerdale Borough Council Planning Application 2/2015/0213 Proposed Proposed 250kw wind turbine on a 30m mast with a 47m blade tip Development: Location: Aikton House Aikton Wigton Recommendation: REFUSE Summary/Key Issues Issue Conclusion Principle of Paragraph 93 of the NPPF makes clear that the provision of Development renewable energy infrastructure is central to the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development. Regard should be had to the Ministerial Statement of 18 June 2015 which states planning permission should only be granted where “following consultation it can be demonstrated that the planning impacts identified by affected local communities have been fully addressed and therefore the proposal has their backing”. Landscape and Regard has been had to three recent appeal decisions for Visual Impact turbines within this locality, all of which were refused. It is considered that the proposal has the potential for significantly harmful cumulative impacts on the character of the landscape and the visual amenities of the locality. The application site is located within an area identified as having significant clustering of vertical infrastructure. Residential The proposed turbine is within the 800m of residential Amenity properties. Although the proposal would be visible from some residential properties given the angles, intervening landscape, topography and buildings this would not result in significant changes in views from residential properties. Heritage No significant harm identified. Ecology No significant harm arising from the development Benefits The proposal will make a small contribution to renewable energy deployment nationally. It would also make a contribution to the running costs of the farm business by creating an alternative source of income, supporting rural enterprise and economic activity.

    THE BEECH TREE by Dorothy Boake Panzer A HISTORY AND GENEALOGY OF THE BOAKE FAMILY OF ENGLAND, IRELAND, AMERICA AND CANADA FROM 1333-1970 Drawing by Eugenia S. Paul St. Giles Parish Great Orton Cumberland County England FORWARD "Talent, in the shape of people with superior gifts, always flies from an impoverished coiintry to a new and potentially richer coiintry. And that is why the center of civilization moved slowly away from its Siimarian oriqin,· as it has indeed been movinq almost ever since." C. D. Darlington We, as human beings, are the sum total of all those who have gone before us. This is applicable not only in the field of genetics but in education, religion, occupation, nationality, and even in politics. To deny our heritage is to deny ourselves. To know and understand our past, to study and appreciate our progenitors, to value and love those misty ancestors whose names we may never know but whose contribu­ tions are essential to the very skein of life, and to pass on to future generations our knowledge of this personal history is a challenge and an opportunity. Attempting to unravel the often twisted threads which make up the webwork structure of our past is an invigorating and rewarding experience. '>Ve are especially fortunate because our forefathers had the daring and initiative to venture forth into new lands; first to Ireland from England, and then to land in the New '>V orld in both America and Canada. These ancestors were endowed with special attributes and talents which, combined with hard work and opportunities to pioneer, enabled them to create a life for themselves and their families unlike any other the world had ever known.
