    Parish Council Offices Lockleys Drive Welwyn Hertfordshire AL6 9NT 01438 716667 www.welwynpc.org.uk Louise St John Howe Programme Officer PO Services PO Box 10965 Sudbury Suffolk CO10 3BF 4th November 2019 Dear Louise Ref: Response to Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council’s Documents EX156 and EX160. Following the invitation from the Inspector to all Representors to comment on Welwyn Hatfield Local Plan Documents, this response has been compiled by Welwyn Parish Council in conjunction with Welwyn Planning and Amenity Group. Welwyn Parish Council have made no comment on documents EX154, EX157, EX158 and EX159 as they relate to locations outside of Welwyn Parish. We regard EX156 and EX160 as being of great significance and importance in helping determine future development in the area. Both documents cover the whole of Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council’s domain but as far as possible, we have restricted our comments to those sections of the documents that refer to Welwyn Parish Council’s geographic area. INTRODUCTION This report is Welwyn Parish Council’s (WPC) response to Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council’s (WHBC) Documents EX1561 & EX1602, submitted following invitation from the Inspector of the WHBC Local Plan. We welcome WHBC’s initiative in commissioning these reports following the Inspector’s comments3 that protection of settlement pattern was not a statutory purpose of the Green Belt and his suggestion of considering specific designations to provide protection for breaks between settlements rather than relying on Green Belt policy. WPC greatly appreciates the opportunity to comment on these two reports, which we regard as being potentially of great importance in determining future development in the area.

The redevelopment of the site began 20 years ago with London architects Brooks Murray using oak weather boarding and materials of highest integrity. The buildings are connected creating an internal courtyard allowing you to enjoy views of the topiary garden and contemporary koi pond as you walk around this beautiful home. The design has focused as much on the outside as internal layout. The concept has been to create a sanctuary offering complete privacy whilst enjoying the changing English seasons, offering opportunities both for quiet reflection and also areas for large social gatherings with family and friends.

  • Hertfordshire Gardens Trust
    HERTFORDSHIRE GARDENS TRUST SPRING NEWSLETTER 2015 AND ANNUAL REPORT From the President: “Our new Chairman has not let the grass grow under her feet and under her leadership this has been another productive year for the Hertfordshire Gardens Trust. There is plenty of activity in all departments which is impressive. The Hertfordshire Gardens Trust provides interesting opportunities for its members and I do encourage you to bring your friends along to see what is going on as there is something of interest for everyone. It would be an advantage to widen the circle of membership.” 2 Chairman’s Report—Bella Stuart-Smith Like caged beasts unleashed, gardeners emerge in spring with such huge energy and enthusiasm that they can tackle anything. The committee see this coming and so put together a wonderful year full of events, outings, study opportunities and visits which really should inspire and enthuse. Whatever your particular interest I hope you find something to enjoy; and please bring your friends. I particularly recommend Tony Kirkham’s tree lecture, an extraordinarily knowledgeable and engaging expert. Our Research and Conservation team don’t ever seem to hibernate. The reports you will read show just how much is going on behind the scenes. What they highlight is the expertise and knowledge that has been built up by our individual members. With support and training, like the day we held in February, we hope to make this research really count so that planners and local districts, at the click of a mouse, can readily access information about what our members and researchers consider to be the most important elements of our historic landscapes.
