  • NDP Steering Minutes 060317
    Minutes GOUDHURST PARISH NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMENT PLAN GROUP Steering Committee (SC) Meeting # 06 Monday March 6, 2017 7.45 pm Present: Anthony Harris(AH), John Leavens(JL), Barbara Stafford (BS), Victoria Aldwinkle (VA), Colin Willis (CW), Craig Broom (CB), Richard Hillier (RH), Susan Newsam (SN), Alan Foster (AF), Jo Hinde (JH) Victoria Aldwinkle (VA), Peter Rolington (PR). 1. Apologies Ed Bates (EB), Linda Hall (LH), Jim Boot (JB), John Leavens (JL), Peter Rollington (PR) 2. A Developer’s View Dave Hugget (DH) (Persimon Homes) provided the group with a view of Goudhurst from the perspective of a major housebuilder. Dave noted that NDP’s were becoming more commonplace and developers were becoming more actively involved in the consultation phase of the NDP process and challenging where necessary. NDPs sit below local and national plans and NDP alignment with wider plans is the principal area of challenge. Another area is EU directives for example ecology, SSI’s etc. TWBC have historically seen Tunbridge Wells and Paddock Wood taking the majority of development with previous plans allocating only 360 new houses across all villages. Although numbers were now larger DH was of the view that the overall proportions would not dramatically change. DH felt that the geography, surroundings etc. of Goudhurst and TWBC’s historic view of the village would not make it a viable centre for development (Cranbrook is our local Rural Centre) and that, as a consequence, the major housebuilders were unlikely to target Goudhurst for development. DH emphasised that the NDP should deliver Positive Planning and understanding how development could be assessed (criteria) and supported - for example in the allocation of sites.

During the summer months we watch Pembury come alive. The trees and the countryside are beautiful and the oak tree on the Green seems a perfect symbol. Events like the Summer Fayre, when visitors remark that they are pleased to be here and not in the town, remind us of what we have and what we share. Sadly we still have those few – maybe younger members – who seem to want to destroy and damage.

Tunbridge Wells Borough Landscape Character Assessment 104 Character Area 10: Kilndown Wooded Farmland Key Characteristics 1) An intricate topography with a rolling sandstone plateau that forms a series of high ridges which are regularly incised by the thin narrow tributary valleys of the River Teise. The basic underlying geological structure of the Local Character Area is of Tunbridge Wells Sandstone forming high ridges, with Wadhurst Clay and localised thin belts of alluvium deposits in the valleys. A higher proportion of Wadhurst Clay and Ashdown Beds occur to the north and north-east of the area within the network of tributary valleys of the Teise. The three tributaries of the River Teise, the largest of which is the River Bewl, flow in a general south to north direction through the area and have a great influence on its character.

THE WALDEN LANDSCAPE IN THE EARLY SEVENTEENTH CENTERS AND ITS ANTECELENTS Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London by John Louis Mnkk Gulley 1960 ABSTRACT This study attempts to describe the historical geography of a confined region, the Weald, before 1650 on the basis of factual research; it is also a methodological experiment, since the results are organised in a consistently retrospective sequence. After defining the region and surveying its regional geography at the beginning of the seventeenth century, the antecedents and origins of various elements in the landscape-woodlands, parks, settlement and field patterns, industry and towns - are sought by retrospective enquiry. At two stages in this sequence the regional geography at a particular period (the early fourteenth century, 1086) is , outlined, so that the interconnections between the different elements in the region should not be forgotten.
