  • Easton Maudit Conservation Area Character Appraisal and Management Plan
    EASTON MAUDIT CONSERVATION AREA CHARACTER APPRAISAL AND MANAGEMENT PLAN 1 ORIGINS AND DEVELOPMENT 1.1 The village of Easton Maudit is located about seven miles south of Wellingborough and eleven miles from Northampton. Most of the southern half of the parish of 730 hectares is on Boulder Clay at 90m – 110m AOD, but streams in the north draining towards Grendon Brook have cut deep-sided valleys through limestone, silts and clays [RCHME, Vol II, 1979]. The parish is two miles north to south and one mile east to west with the village itself located to the north. It is bounded on the east by Bozeat, north by Grendon and west by Yardley Hastings, lying on the borders of Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire and west of the road between Wellingborough and Olney. With the exception of the (former) rectorial lands, it is owned by the Marquess of Northampton *(currently the seventh Marquess) [VCH IV 11, 1937 OUP]. 1.2 It appears that the place name is essentially topographically-derived relative to an “East Farm” perhaps associated with Denton and Whiston lying to the west. The second element is linked to John Maled *(Latin: Maledoctus = dunce) who held the manor in 1166 and whose family name was also being spelt Mauduit (1242) and Maudut (1268). The village name is therefore recorded as having evolved from Eston(e) (1086), Estun (12 th century), through Estone Maudeut (1298), Estone Juxta Boseyate (1305), Eston Mauduyt (1377), to Esson Mawdett in 1611 [Gover, et al]. 1.3 Records of manorial succession commence with William Peverel, the Conqueror’s natural son, and the Countess Judith, his niece, who “held in Estone 2 ½ virgates at the general survey [Whellan].

  • The Plan for the Borough of Wellingborough: Background Paper
    Appendix 3 Settlement Hierarchy The Plan for the Borough of Wellingborough: Background Paper Date: October 2015 Swanspool House, Doddington Road, Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, NN8 1BP Tel: 01933 229777 DX 12865 www.wellingborough.gov.uk 1. Introduction 1.1 The settlement hierarchy is a key part of the new local plan evidence base. The new local plan will be formed of two parts. Part 1 of the new local plan comprises the emerging Joint Core Strategy (JCS) that includes high level strategic policies. The Plan for the Borough of Wellingborough (PBW) will form Part 2 of the new local plan and will provide more locally specific policies. 1.2 The aim of this background paper is to assess whether there is any requirement for the PBW to consider the inclusion of specific detailed policy on settlement hierarchy, further to that provided in the policies of the emerging JCS. 1.3 A settlement hierarchy is a way of categorising the boroughs settlements to recognise their different roles. A hierarchy groups together the settlements that have similar characteristics. At the top of the hierarchy are the larger settlements that fulfil most functions, have the best infrastructure (facilities and services) and are most easy to get to by sustainable forms of travel. The smaller settlements, with least functions, infrastructure and transport links, are nearer the bottom of the hierarchy. This helps us decide how to sustainably distribute development between settlements. 1.4 In order to fulfil the aim of this paper the following steps will be completed; • Examination of local and national policy • Desk top examination of settlements in the borough • Collection of evidence through a parish council questionnaire and site visits • Review of responses to the Issues and Options Consultation • Identification and analysis of available options • Recommendations 2.

County & Ward Councillor Reports -To receive reports, from county and ward councillors if able to attend. CCllr Martin Griffiths attended the meeting and reported that NCC had been mainly focussed on the COVID-19 situation and the move towards unitary. He was very pleased with Northamptonshire’s exceptional response to the pandemic and the vaccine roll-out with Northants sitting at 4th in the country for vaccine distribution in groups 1-4, there was still a long way to go but they were confident this would continue if the supply held-up. He also reported that the elections will go ahead on the 6th of May 2021, in a COVID-19-secure way. He thought turn-out could be low which would be a shame and no door-to-door canvassing was permitted.

  • CIL Charging Schedule for Wellingborough
    CIL Charging Schedule for Wellingborough The Community Infrastructure Levy is a charge on development, intended to fund infrastructure. It has been introduced by many Charging Authorities across the country with rates varying by location and type of development. This report indicates the current status of charging in Wellingborough as of 15.09.16, and the rates proposed or adopted. Status: No CIL Schedule Published Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule Draft Charging Schedule Adopted Mayoral Charge Only Use Charge per square metre Rate 1 Residential - Rural Villages (Great Doddington, Earls Barton, Wollaston, Strixton, £100 Bozeat, Easton Maudit, Grendon, Ecton, Sywell, Mears Ashby, Hardwick, Harrowden, Great Harrowden, Isham and Orlingbury) Residential - All other areas £50 Residential - Care Homes, Extra Care Housing and other residential institutions - Retail - Town Centre £60 Retail - Elsewhere - Convenience Supermarkets, Superstores and Retail Warehouses >280sqm £100 All other chargeable development - About the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Most new development which creates net additional floor space of 100 square metres (Gross Internal Area) or more, or creates a new dwelling, is potentially liable for the levy. The levy only applies in areas where a local authority has consulted on, and approved, a charging schedule that sets out its levy rates and has been published on its website. If in any doubt, do contact your local authority to check. Some developments may be eligible for relief or exemption from the levy. There are strict administrative procedures required to be eligible for these reliefs or exemptions – and typically these must be granted before you start any material operation on site. How and when CIL is levied is set out in law, and it is not negotiable.
