  • Rural Settlement in Cheshire Some Problems of Origin and Classification
    RURAL SETTLEMENT IN CHESHIRE SOME PROBLEMS OF ORIGIN AND CLASSIFICATION BY DOROTHY SYLVESTER, M.A., F.R.G.S. Read 20 October 1949 HPHE Cheshire Plain, girdled and to some extent broken by hills, .1 is an area of mixed rural settlement patterns. Occasional small, compact villages are to be found in a broad spread of dis­ persed and semi-dispersed dwellings. Colonization has been slow and, since the Norman Conquest, piecemeal; and the process of enclosing heath and woodland is still incomplete. Lying in the borderland between Welsh and Midland English settlement and land use systems, its inclusion in one or the other system has long been debatable. Gray (1) and more recently the Orwins (2) showed it as lying just to the north of the boundary of what Gray calls the Two- and Three-Field System and the Orwins the Open Field System. Meitzen (3) compromised and divided it into an area of dispersed and an area of compact settlement. A more detailed examination of the county from this point of view suggests that more probably the two systems overlapped here, and that a third folk element, the Scandinavian, explains some features of settlement in Wirral and parts of East Cheshire. The result would seem to be an area of predominantly scattered settlement interspersed with small nucleated villages, representing in part Welsh, in part English and Scandinavian types, but showing also varying degrees of hybridization in individual townships of pre-Conquest date and the addition of a not inconsiderable number of settlements of post- Conquest origin. The origirT of rural settlements is a complex subject, and it is rendered no less so in Cheshire by the absence to date of any con­ siderable central collection of historical documents and maps.

  • 14/4296N Location: AGRICULTURAL LAND AT, HATHERTON LODGE
    Application No: 14/4296N Location: AGRICULTURAL LAND AT, HATHERTON LODGE FARM, HUNSTERSON ROAD, HATHERTON, NANTWICH, CW5 7RA Proposal: Installation of a solar park with an output of approximately 8.28 MW on land associated with Hatherton Lodge Farm. Applicant: Mr Markus Wierenga, Green Switch Developments Ltd Expiry Date: 11-Dec-2014 SUMMARY The NPPF requires that Local Planning Authorities should recognise the responsibility on all communities to contribute to energy generation from renewable or low carbon sources. In terms of sustainability, the benefits of the provision of a source of renewable energy, for which there is a recognised need, outweighs any harm having regard to the impact on open countryside and loss of best and most versatile agricultural land. The proposal would satisfy the economic and social sustainability roles by providing energy from a renewable, low carbon source. The proposal is considered to have an impact on the landscape of the area but not sufficiently harmful in the overall balance. It is acceptable in terms, amenity, flood risk, highway safety and ecology. The scheme therefore represents a sustainable form of development and the planning balance weighs in favour supporting the development. RECOMMENDATION: Approve subject to conditions. PROPOSAL The development proposal is for a circa 8.25MWp Solar Park laid out across approximately 16 hectares of agricultural land within the existing field boundaries. The panels would be freestanding units constructed of toughened glass set in aluminium frames. They would be mounted close to the ground (approx 2.33m high with a tilt angle of 25 degrees), and fixed in position through piles driven into the ground, meaning that no concrete foundations are required.
