Babingley Catchment Outreach Report-NGP
THE BABINGLEY RIVER CATCHMENT Links between geodiversity and landscape - A resource for educational and outreach work - Tim Holt-Wilson Norfolk Geodiversity Partnership CONTENTS 1.0 Introduction 2.0 Landscape Portrait 3.0 Features to visit 4.0 Local Details 5.0 Resources 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Babingley River is a chalk river, of which there are more in England than any other country in the world. Chalk rivers are fed from groundwater sources, producing clear waters. Most of them have ‘winterbourne’ stretches in their headwaters, with intermittent or absent flow in summer. They have characteristic plant communities, and their gravelly beds, clear waters and rich invertebrate life support important populations of brown trout, salmon and other fish. The Babingley is the best example of a chalk river in west Norfolk. This report explains the links between geodiversity and the biological and cultural character of the river catchment. It provides a digest of information for education and interpretive outreach about this precious natural resource. Some specialist words are marked in blue and appear in the Glossary (section 5). 2.0 LANDSCAPE PORTRAIT 2.1 Topography and geology The Babingley River is a river in north-west Norfolk with a length of 19.6 km (12 miles). The river falls some 25 m (82 ft) from its headwaters at Flitcham to where it meets the sea at Wootton Marshes. This represents a mean fall of approximately 1.27 m (4.2 ft) per km. However this fall is mostly accomplished over a distance of 7.7 km upstream of Babingley Bridge (Castle Rising), at a steeper gradient of 3.24 m per km. -
Pre Submission Document
244 Site Allocations and Development Management Policies Pre-Submission Document G Rural West Norfolk G.41 Gayton, Grimston and Pott Row (KRSC) Key Rural Service Centre Description G.41.1 Gayton is a large, fairly compact village situated astride the B1145 road, seven miles east of King’s Lynn, close to the source of the Gaywood River. The village consists of two older parts, around the junction of the B1145 and the B1153 near to the Church of St. Nicholas and about half a mile further west around the Rampant Horse Public House. The older buildings are mostly two storeys with pitched roofs. The building materials of the older buildings are mostly clunch or red brick with pantiles or slates for the roofs. Some of the buildings are rendered or colourwashed. The population of Gayton was recorded as 1,432 in the 2011 Population Census.(34) G.41.2 Gayton falls within the “Farmland with Woodland and Wetland” landscape. This is described in the Landscape Character Assessment(35) as having mixed agricultural fields, interspersed with woodland and areas of open water. This creates a medium scale landscape with a varied sense of enclosure that is flat to gently undulating. G.41.3 Grimston is a large village seven miles east of King’s Lynn, centred around the Old Bell Guest House. The form of the older part of the village is linear, extending from the Church of St. Botolph in the south to Ivy Farm in the north. Newer development has mostly been located to the west, on Low Road, Lynn Road and on Vong Lane. -

Some Historically Significant Trees in Norfolk
32 The Glaven Historian No.8 Some Historically Significant Trees in Norfolk by John White Synopsis: At first glance Norfolk may seem to be devoid of significant trees but this is certainly not true.

Proposed Mineral Extraction Sites
Proposed Mineral Extraction Sites 104 Breckland Sites Map of proposed sites in Beetley (MIN 08, MIN 12, MIN 13, MIN 51) MIN 12 - land north of Chapel Lane, Beetley Site Characteristics • The 16.38 hectare site is within the parish of Beetley • The estimated sand and gravel resource at the site is 1,175,000 tonnes • The proposer of the site has given a potential start date of 2025 and estimated the extraction rate to be 80,000 tonnes per annum. Based on this information the full mineral resource at the site could be extracted within 15 years, therefore approximately 960,000 tonnes could be extracted within the plan period. • The site is proposed by Middleton Aggregates Ltd as an extension to an existing site. • The site is currently in agricultural use and the Agricultural Land Classification scheme classifies the land as being Grade 3. • The site is 3.7km from Dereham and 12km from Fakenham, which are the nearest towns. • A reduced extraction area has been proposed of 14.9 hectares, which creates standoff areas to the south west of the site nearest to the buildings on Chapel Lane, and to the north west of the site nearest the dwellings on Church Lane. Amenity: The nearest residential property is 11m from the site boundary. There are 21 sensitive receptors within 250m of the site boundary. The settlement of Beetley is 260m away and Old Beetley is 380m away. However, land at the north-west and south-west corners is not proposed to be extracted. Therefore the nearest residential property is 96m from the extraction area and there are 18 sensitive receptors within 250m of the proposed extraction area. -

The character area is defined primarily by the distinctive land cover of arable fields interspersed with blocks of mixed plantation woodland and areas of heathland and grassland. It is bounded by the more continuous forest cover of Thetford Forest to the south, by the Wissey Valley to the west and by the Thet Valley to the east, with the elevated plateau landscape marking the northern extent. Key Characteristics • A gently undulating landscape with glacial drift deposits of sand, clay and gravel. Topography ranges from 20 – 55m AOD. • Free draining sandy soils support a functional landscape of arable cultivation and plantation woodland. • Large tracts of heathland and grassland survive within the extensive MOD land holdings at Stanford Training Ground (SSSI (SAC)), in the western half of the character area. • Groundwater dependent meres at East Wretham Heath and the Stanta Training Area are internationally significant – unique hydrogeological features fed by base- rich groundwater with no inflowing or outflowing streams. -
