It accompanies a minor material amendment application in respect of planning permission W/12/02072/FUL. This report and heritage impact assessment was undertaken by Robert J. McMorran and is a Senior Archaeologist at Jacobs. He is a full Member of the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (MCIfA) and has over 15 years’ experience in the heritage sector. Additional contributions to the assessment were provided by Gareth Talbot (MCIfA), Principal Archaeologist at Jacobs who has over 17 years’ experience in the heritage sector. The application site is on land west of 198 Norrington Lane, Broughton Gifford, Wiltshire, with grid reference ST 877648. The application site extends to land for the solar PV panel arrays and associated development such as invertors, substation, tracks and fencing. The site is located approximately 7km to the north-northeast of Trowbridge and c. 700m from the centre of Broughton Gifford. The solar farm lies within an area of gently sloping farmland consisting of four fields bounded by mature hedgerow interspersed with deciduous trees at an elevation of c. 50m AOD. The wider landscape is rural in character with significant areas of urbanisation identified, particularly evident 2.3km to the east-southeast at Melksham. The northern extent of Broughton Gifford Conservation Area skirts the southwestern development boundary. A previous Heritage Statement was submitted by Aardvark EM Ltd to Wiltshire Council in support of a planning application (Planning Application No. W/12/02072/FUL), within the same development boundary as the existing Norrington Solar Farm. This application was approved on 25th June 2013. However, the as-built design does not conform to the original approved plan. This assessment has been prepared to address the legislative and planning policy requirements covering the conservation and management of the historic environment focusing on designated heritage assets within 2km of the Norrington Solar Farm. This study area was chosen to encompass any heritage assets which may have the potential to be impacted by the development. The assessment has identified whether impacts have materially changed in comparison to the project for which consent was granted on 25th June 2013. Within the 2km study area 111 cultural heritage assets have been identified. These consist of Grade I, Grade II* and Grade II Listed Buildings. Additionally, two Conservation Areas and one Historic Park and Garden were identified. The Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment of the Norrington Solar Farm has identified non-significant adverse impacts on the settings of Gifford Hall, The Hayes and Broughton Gifford Conservation Area. The impacts identified and significance of them are the same or lower than those associated with the consented scheme, making them acceptable. These impacts are likely to be reduced further as the landscape planting at the southern boundary of the Norrington Solar Farm matures. Norrington Solar Farm Ltd Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment 1. Introduction Jacobs was commissioned by Norrington Solar Farm Limited to undertake a Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment of the existing Norrington Solar Farm within land west of Norrington Lane (hereafter referred to as ‘the solar farm’), Broughton Gifford, Wiltshire SN12 8LR (NGR E387799 N164803). It accompanies a minor material amendment application in respect of planning permission W/12/02072/FUL. The requirement of the brief was to undertake a review of previous documentation submitted for the approved plan, to ascertain whether potential impacts on surrounding heritage assets have reduced or increased as a result of the now operational as-built development. 1.1 Site Location The application site is on land west of 198 Norrington Lane, Broughton Gifford, Wiltshire, with grid reference ST 877648. The application site extends to land for the solar PV panel

    Changes to the West Wiltshire Zig Zag bus service linking Corsham, Gastard, Whitley, Atworth, Holt and Broughton Gifford with Melksham, Bradford on Avon and Trowbridge starting on 29 January 2018 On 29 January, we will be making some further alterations to the timetable of the ZigZag bus service, particularly at lunchtimes. In addition, this service will no-longer call at the Asda Store bus stop in Melksham, to reduce the delays encountered by the buses in this area. Please note that as part of these changes, the morning buses between Corsham Road at Lacock and Corsham town centre will now be provided by a new service 11 and not by the Zig Zag bus. The new timetables for these services are included in this leaflet – please check them carefully as the times of most buses will have changed slightly. All of these services are operated with funding from Wiltshire Council, so if you experience a problem with your bus service or wish to suggest further changes to it, please ring 01225 718080 or write to: The Passenger Transport Unit, Wiltshire Council, County Hall, Trowbridge, BA14 8JN, or send an email to [email protected] .

  • Area 32 Melksham Public Transport Group Committee
    Area 32 Melksham Public Transport Group Committee Parish Representatives:- Alan Baines, John Glover. The Group provides the opportunity for parish representatives to raise and discuss public transport matters with the Wiltshire Council officer responsible for public transport. The Area 32 Group covers the parishes of Melksham, Melksham Without, Atworth, Broughton Gifford, Holt and Semington. Formal meetings take place about 3 times a year, which for some time have only been attended by representatives from the first 3 parishes, but matters needing urgent attention can be raised at any time. Despite the implementation of the new Area Board structure, there appears to be an ongoing role for the Group, however there are signs that the Area Board may soon be unable to resist trying to take on the responsibilities. Once again, bus services in Melksham have been affected by enhancement/reconstruction works in the town centre. The temporary one-way system operating in High Street for the duration of the latest footway works again required bus services to be diverted. To allow buses to call at The Market Place, via King Street and Spa Road only, temporary bus stops had to be again set up in front of Crown Chambers and Crown House. As this arrangement has become necessary on several occasions, most passengers accepted the changes. The main problem was again motorists who persist in parking on the temporary bus stops, despite signs and copious amounts of yellow markings. Hopefully these arrangements will not be required for the next phase of work in Church Street. The 237 service to Trowbridge, via Broughton Gifford and Holt, and the 72 service to Corsham have been withdrawn, being replaced by the West Wiltshire Zig Zag from 1st August.

The cloth towns of Bradford-on-Avon, Trowbridge and Westbury were thriving when John Leland visited in 1540; but GD Ramsay thought they had passed their golden age by 1550 and declined during the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Joan Thirsk – following the precedent of John Aubrey, who wrote a survey of north Wiltshire in the 1660s – characterised the region as ‘cheese country’. Based on new archival research, this thesis argues that, far from declining, cloth manufacture in west Wiltshire grew throughout the Tudor era and remained strong under the early Stuarts; that production of this crucial trade commodity gave the region national significance; and that profits from the woollen trade were the main drivers of change in west Wiltshire over the period 1530-1680.

  • New Zig Zag Bus Timetable from 2Nd January 2014
    Changes to the West Wiltshire Zig Zag bus service linking Corsham, Gastard, Whitley, Atworth, Holt and Broughton Gifford with Melksham, Bradford on Avon and Trowbridge starting on 2 January 2014 During the Summer we undertook a consultation exercise with passengers concerning proposed changes to the Zig Zag bus service which were required to make the service more cost effective. Following consideration of the responses received from the consultation and discussion with the bus operators that operate journeys on the Zig Zag services, we have been able to devise a new timetable that is similar to the current timetable but more efficient to operate and which incorporates most of the comments and suggestions that were made. This timetable will be introduced on the 2nd January and is shown overleaf – please check it carefully as it may be slightly different to that distributed previously. Unfortunately it will not be possible for the Zig Zag service to continue to serve Chippenham, but in its place, Holt Community Transport will be operating an experimental service from Holt, Broughton Gifford, Atworth, Whitley and Gastard to Chippenham on Fridays at the times shown below. We will be keeping this service under review during the coming months and so if you have any suggestions for further alterations that could usefully be made to the Zig Zag service, please send an email to [email protected] or write to: Wiltshire Council Passenger Transport Unit, County Hall, Trowbridge, BA14 8JN Introducing the new bus service operated by Holt Community
