The Walled Garden, Stocks Road, Aldbury, Tring, Hp23 5Rz
4/02488/16/FUL - CONSTRUCTION OF DETACHED HOUSE (AMENDED SCHEME). THE WALLED GARDEN, STOCKS ROAD, ALDBURY, TRING, HP23 5RZ. APPLICANT: Mr & Mrs Garfarth. [Case Officer - Andrew Parrish] Summary The application is recommended for refusal. The application proposes the construction of a detached dwelling of contemporary design in a rural location adjacent to the original walled garden of Stocks House, Aldbury. The proposal is considered to be inappropriate in principle in the Rural Area. The site is not considered to constitute previously developed land. However, even if it were, in accordance with NPPF, it should not be assumed that the whole of the curtilage should be developed. In this case the site is undeveloped and further development would harm the character and appearance of the countryside, contrary to point (i.) of CS7. Furthermore, as the site is within the Chilterns AONB, it is prima facie of the highest environmental value and therefore, in accordance with NPPF, little weight can be given to the argument that development should be encouraged here. The applicant has argued that if the Council is satisfied that the design of the dwelling is of exceptional quality or innovative nature, as provided for in para. 55 of the NPPF, planning permission can be granted for a new dwelling in the countryside under special circumstances. The 4 relevant tests set out in para. 55 have been considered in detail. Whilst the Conservation Officers consider the proposed dwelling to be of a high standard and to make a positive contribution to the area's architecture, they nevertheless consider that in the location proposed, the new building would not relate well to either the adjacent walled garden or the rural character and appearance of the site and immediate area. -
CHILTERN RAMBLING TRAIL This Route
CHILTERN RAMBLING TRAIL This route, including a section of the Ridgeway Long Distance Path, offers breathtaking views from the Chiltern ridge. It starts in the Ashridge Estate and returns to Tring via Tring Park, a distance of around 5 miles. You will need to arrange transport to the start. The National Trust's Ashridge Estate covers six square miles of woodlands, commons, downland and farmland in Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire. It centres on a former monastery, where Queen Elizabeth I was held by her sister Queen Mary. Largely rebuilt as a Gothic-style mansion for the Bridgewater (later Brownlow) family, the architects were James Wyatt and Jeffry Wyattville and the grounds were landscaped by both Brown and Repton; the house is now a management college, sometimes open to the public. Most of estate is accessible to the public and supports a considerable diversity of wildlife including goldcrest, lesser-spotted woodpecker, wild fallow deer, muntjac deer and badgers. 1. Start at Monument Drive, which runs through ancient woodland to the Monument. Built in honour of the third Duke of Bridgewater, generally considered the 'father' of the canal network. It is sometimes possible to climb to the top to enjoy stunning views. The nearby tearooms provide a very enjoyable light lunch. Turn left at the monument in front of the tea shop Keep right at first junction: and walk through the beech woods, down the steep escarpment to Aldbury, passing ancient flint pits on the way and enjoying views to the west. Aldbury is a picturesque village and a popular film location. 2. -

January 2014 Edition of Your Berkhamsted a Very Happy New Year to You; I Hope That Everyone Had a Peaceful and Enjoyable Christmas
In this issue... Welcome to the January 2014 edition of Your Berkhamsted A very Happy New Year to you; I hope that everyone had a peaceful and enjoyable Christmas. Our snowy front cover reminds me of when I was choosing the image for last January’s issue. It was proving to be a mild Winter so I was concerned that a cover with a snow-laden Court House would look a bit out of place. However, by the time January was in full flow we’d received a very heavy dollop of the white stuff. So, as I write this in a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius in the middle of December.………..you can guess where this is going. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. In the first issue of the year there’s plenty to get you moving with a walk around Aldbury, and lots of sporting ideas if you feel like taking up a new pursuit. We have news from our local schools plus an update on how the money raised at the Petertide Fair has helped children in Kathmandu at the Nepali Children’s Trust. There’s a winter recipe to try, and if you received book tokens for Christmas, some suggestions on how to spend them. Enjoy!

It has since remained unchallenged as the prime source of reference for anyone interested in the history of Hatfield.

These indexes have now been expanded and cumulated into one, with the aim of allowing greater access to the information held in the series. Hatfield Local History Society hopes that the reappearance of the Hatfield and its People series, with the addition of this cumulative index, will encourage and stimulate others to undertake new research into Hatfield‟s past. -
