Land North of Viaduct, Adjacent to Orchard Business Park, Ledbury Application Ref: 171532
Our ref: APP/W1850/W/20/3244410 Guy Wakefield Ridge and Partners LLP 15 March 2021 Dear Sir TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1990 – SECTION 78 APPEAL MADE BY BLOOR HOMES WESTERN LAND NORTH OF VIADUCT, ADJACENT TO ORCHARD BUSINESS PARK, LEDBURY APPLICATION REF: 171532 1. I am directed by the Secretary of State to say that consideration has been given to the report of Lesley Coffey BA Hons BTP MRTPI, who held a public local inquiry starting on 13 July 2020 into your client’s appeal against the decision of Herefordshire Council to refuse your client’s application for outline planning permission for a mixed use development including the erection of up to 625 new homes (including affordable housing), up to 2.9 hectares of B1 employment land, a canal corridor, public open space (including a linear park), access, drainage and ground modelling works and other associated works, in accordance with LPA reference 171532, dated 22 June 2018. The proposal is for outline planning permission with all matters reserved for future consideration with the exception of access. Only the means of access into the site is sought as part of this outline application, not the internal site access arrangements (i.e. they do not formally form part of the application). Vehicular access is proposed off the Bromyard Road. 2. On 26 March 2020, this appeal was recovered for the Secretary of State's determination, in pursuance of section 79 of, and paragraph 3 of Schedule 6 to, the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. Inspector’s recommendation and summary of the decision 3. -

Exploring Frith Wood Front cover: Aerial photograph of Frith Wood. © Herefordshire Council HAAS-07-04-D033 Exploring Frith Wood A booklet prepared by Steve Clegg Moira Jenkins of the Herefordshire and Worcestershire Earth Heritage Trust Tim Hoverd, Christopher Atkinson and Neil Rimmington of Herefordshire Archaeology Janet Parry of the Ledbury Naturalist’s Field Club Kate Wollen of the Forestry Commission And with support from the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Sustainable Development Fund March 2008 Contents Page Acknowledgements 1 Introduction 3 The origins of Frith Wood 4 Stepping Back in Frith Wood 9 Natural History of Frith Wood 18 Managing the Wood Today 20 A Walk through Frith 22 1 Acknowledgements The initial idea for the booklet came from Steve Clegg who put together a significant amount of information concerning the routes through Frith Wood together with an outline history of the wood. This information has been expanded upon by relevant specialists. This booklet is the result of a community project and it is to those members of the local community that the first thanks must go. It is due to their dedication during a particularly wet and windy month that the survey work was completed. In particular thanks must go to Janet Cooper who assisted with co-ordinating the volunteer involvement. The project was only possible through the support of the staff of the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) Partnership and the funding provided by their Sustainable Development Fund. The project brought together organisations, societies and individuals from varied areas of interests covering archaeology, history, ecology, geology and forestry. -

About Ledbury Population Ledbury is a market town with a population of 9,636 (2011 Census) and a centre for some 20 parishes in Herefordshire, as well as several villages in neighbouring Gloucestershire and Worcestershire, making a catchment population using its services and facilities of over 20,000. Historical Interest Since its origins as an Anglo-Saxon settlement, Ledbury has been at the crossroads of trade routes between the Midlands and Mid and South Wales. Recognised as the gateway to Herefordshire and the Welsh Marches, it is a convenient stopover offering friendly hospitality and service. The Town Centre, originally formed in the 12th Century, has developed around a core of 15th to 17th Century buildings, from the proceeds of the wool trade and to this day retains its medieval street pattern. These maps demonstrate the growth of Ledbury from a very small town reliant on agriculture in the early 20th century, to a small but prosperous town of traders. Key buildings include the Market House and Ledbury Park (both listed Grade 1 buildings by Historic England), the recently restored Master’s House (Grade 2* listed), St Katherine’s Hall and Almshouses, the Old Grammar School Heritage Centre (Grade 2* listed), St Michael and All Angels Parish Church (Grade 1 listed) plus the Feathers and the Talbot Hotels (both Grade 2* listed). -
Rail & Bus for Herefordshire Spring 2021 Newsletter
Rail & Bus for Herefordshire Spring 2021 Newsletter © Rail & Bus for Herefordshire March 2021 1 Editor’s Piece Hopefully the strange times of the past year will soon diminish. But until then I thought we would have a little competition of ‘Guess the Signal Box’. No prizes but just a little something in case it has slipped your mind that there are railways out there. So, where is the signal box on the cover? Answers to [email protected] Covid 19 and the associated lockdown restriction have certainly drawn the country up short. Undoubtedly some of the biggest impact has fallen on our public transport and hospitality sectors. As a result, it is unlikely that both these industries will return to the normality we knew before the pandemic. How many public houses and restaurants will reopen is anyone’s guess at the moment. But in the public transport industry, which has been kept going by massive injections of public money, the main challenge is going to be getting people back onto buses and trains. But what happens when government financial support ceases or is scaled down? It all points to the possibilities for a radical shake up of how our public transport is provided and importantly who pays for it. For too long buses and trains have been provided in a disintegrated fashion, both being financed by a chaotic mixture of private and public money. That there should be a coordinated approach and a sustainable long term financial package for the industry is now becoming paramount. In a recent very lucid article Laura Shoaf, MD for Transport for West Midlands emphasised the fact that the future of the bus - and a fairer, more socially equitable economic recovery to which it can contribute - is deeply uncertain. -

Rail & Bus for Herefordshire Summer 2021 Newsletter © Rail & Bus for Herefordshire: June 2021 1 Where is the Signal Box? The image on the cover of the Spring Newsletter proved far too easy with many of you guessing it correctly as Pontrilas. So the image for this edition has gone to the opposite extreme of making it difficult. One clue; it is just across the border. Subscriptions If you have not paid for 2021-22 then please send a cheque for £8.00 to our Treasurer, Peter Gwatkin at 60 Broomy hill, Hereford, HR4 0LQ. We can only keep Rail & Bus for Herefordshire and the newsletter going with your help Annual General Meeting In 2020 we were fortunate to hold our AGM on 10 March, only about a week before Covid measures were introduced. Restrictions on public meetings have remained in place ever since and we were unable to hold 2021’s AGM during March or April as usual. We were hoping to hold it in late July, but further postponement of the lifting of restrictions has meant that we cannot yet set a date or book a venue with any confidence. In the expectation that all Covid restrictions will be lifted within four weeks, we sincerely hope that the next newsletter can carry an announcement that the 2021 AGM will be held in October. Mike Ledlie made Honorary Member RBfH has decided to invite Dr Mike Ledlie to be an honorary member of the organisation given his exemplary work as secretary to the organisation from 2011 to 2016. Not only did Mike ensure that all business was conducted and reported properly he also offered up his family home for committee meetings. -

The main objective of the SEA is to ensure that the environment is protected and that environmental considerations are taken into account in the run up to preparing Neighbourhood Plans. SEA is a mechanism for considering and communicating the likely effects of a draft Plan, and alternatives, in terms of environmental (and wider sustainability) issues, with a view to avoiding and mitigating adverse effects and maximising the positives. SEA is not an automatic requirement for Neighbourhood Plans. Rather, SEA is a requirement where an initial ‘screening’ assessment identifies the potential for significant environmental effects. In this case it has been determined that, due to the presence of housing allocations within the draft Plan, a SEA is required. The environmental appraisal of the Ledbury NDP has been undertaken in line with the Environmental Assessment of Plan and Programmes Regulations 2004.
