    BOROUGH OF BARROW-IN-FURNESS LOCAL PLAN REVIEW 1996-2006 HOUSING CHAPTER ALTERATION 2006 BOROUGH OF BARROW-IN-FURNESS LOCAL PLAN REVIEW 1996-2006 HOUSING CHAPTER ALTERATION 2006 Adopted 2 June 2006 Director of Regeneration Barrow-in-Furness Borough Council Town Hall Duke Street Barrow in Furness Cumbria LA14 2LD Contact: Local Development Framework Officer (01229) 894249 Email: regen@barrowbc.gov.uk FOREWORD The Borough of Barrow-in-Furness Local Plan Review (1996-2006) is a statutory document prepared by the Borough Council to set out its policies guiding the development and use of land for the period up to 2006. Adopted, together with the County’s Minerals and Waste Local Plan and the Cumbria and Lake District Joint Structure Plan and the Regional Spatial Strategy and Local Development Documents of the new Local Development Framework, these form the statutory Development Plan for the area. There are also national guidelines in relation to planning issues that the Local Plan must interpret into local policy. At the time the plan was being written, the Government were in the process of revising the national planning guidance in relation to housing, ‘Planning Policy Guidance Note 3’. To keep the plan up to date the Borough Council resolved to alter the Housing Chapter to bring it up to date with this guidance. As a result of the provisions of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, the Local Plan Review, and the Housing Chapter Alteration once adopted, will be saved for the period set out below, or until they are revoked or replaced by the documents in the Local Development Framework.

Baseline mapping © Ordnance Survey: licence number 100026791. 1 CUMBRIA COASTAL STRATEGY - POLICY AREA 11C14 WALNEY ISLAND 1 Introduction 1.1 Location and site description Policy units: 11c14.1 South End Hawes to Biggar (east side) 11c14.2 Biggar to Lenny Hill (east side) 11c14.3 South End Hawes to Hare Hill (open coast) 11c14.4 Hare Hill to Hillock Whins 11c14.5 Hillock Whins to Nanny Point Scar 11c14.6 Nanny Point Scar to Mill Scar 11c14.7 Mill Scar to north of West Shore Park 11c14.8 North Walney – from north of West Shore Park to Lenny Hill (both coasts) Responsibilities: Barrow Council Cumbria Country Council Private landowners Location: The policy area covers the entire frontage of Walney Island, both open coast (west coast) and channel (east coast) shorelines. Site Overview: Walney Island is composed of glacial deposits overlaying a rock platform; cliffs along the open coast are cut into these glacial sand and gravels, which provide little resistance to erosion. The two shorelines of Walney Island experience very different exposure conditions; the west coast is exposed to the Irish Sea whilst, in contrast, the east coast is sheltered from wave action. At either end of the Island, large sand and shingle spits extend towards the Duddon Estuary to the north and Morecambe Bay to the south.

Baseline mapping © Ordnance Survey: licence number 100026791. 1 CUMBRIA COASTAL STRATEGY - POLICY AREA 11C13 BARDSEA TO PIEL ISLAND 1 Introduction 1.1 Location and site description Policy units: 11c13.1 Bardsea to Newbiggin 11c13.2 Newbiggin to Rampside (priority unit) 11c13.3 Rampside (priority unit) 11c13.4 Roa Island (priority unit) 11c13.5 Piel Island Responsibilities: South Lakeland District Council Barrow Borough Council Cumbria County Council Highways England (Historical Railway Estate) Cumbria Wildlife Trust Private landowners Location: The policy area falls within Sub cell 11c: (part) Arnside to Hodbarrow Point and covers the northern coast of Morecambe Bay between the Leven Estuary and Walney Island. Site overview: There are both coastal flood and erosion risks to this policy area, with the key risk being the potential consequences for the long term viability of the main coastal link road, A5087, as well as isolated properties. This policy area comprises the south easterly facing coastline of Morecambe Bay and is characterised by low till (boulder clay) cliffs and outcrops of limestone interspersed by areas of low lying land. Erosion of this material has resulted in the formation of localised cobble scars within the intertidal and sub tidal zones as on many other areas of the Cumbrian coast. The orientation of the frontage, combined with extensive intertidal banks of Morecambe Bay and the protection provided by Walney Island, results in the shoreline being relatively sheltered from wave action compared to the west coast of Cumbria.
