A Garden Village for Swale A GARDEN VILLAGE FOR SWALE LORD MATTHEW TAYLOR (HON MRTPI) Visiting Professor of Planning, Plymouth University When I proposed the Garden Village programme to Government, the number one objective was to give councils the opportunity to deliver the homes people need in well planned, attractive new garden communities of the highest quality, instead of endless bland housing estates ruining the edge of historic towns. That means delivering great places to live and work, with all the facilities people need from parks and gardens to shops, cafes, schools Lord Taylor of Goss Moor has and employment. In short, creating new 21st century communities with all the best qualities of advised successive governments on planning policy, conducting traditional English market towns and villages. the 2008 ‘Living Working Countryside’ planning review and the 2011 creation of the I have been commissioned to help ensure that the proposals for a Garden Community south of Governments national Planning Faversham achieve all these aims and more.

    PEACE, SOLITUDE: Syndale A RURAL WAY OF LIFE Valley Walk faversham.org/walking NEWNHAM – EASTLING – STALISFIELD – DODDINGTON Peace, solitude: a rural way of life “Enchant, stay Escape to a land that time forgot, where farming, food and rural traditions remain the cornerstones of community life among the beautiful and graceful, unspoilt and picturesque scenery of the Syndale Valley. but do this, eat well” Running through the mid Kent Downs – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – the chalk valley remains one of the few Charles Pierre Monselet timeless landscapes in this busy corner of Kent. Not without its own share of historic highlights and notoriety, your walk begins in the ancient settlement of Newnham, nestled in the Syndale Valley since at least the 12th century. Here the Romans grew grapes and James Pimm was born – creator of one of Britain’s best-loved summer drinks, the eponymous Pimms. The Revd. Granville Wheler proved the existence of electric current in 1725 at Otterden Place – just one of the grand homes that pepper your path as you make your way through ancient woods, working farmland and historic grazing pastures. Many of the woods on your route are still hunted by wildfowlers who sell their game to local butchers and restaurants, while others support the rural craft of coppicing - common in this area. Traditional coppicing of sweet chestnut shoots for fence stakes extends the life of the trees and floods the woodland floor with light in spring and summer, promoting an abundance of flowers and food for wildlife. As you pass back into sweeping open fields you may see kestrels and other birds of prey.

  • Brogdale Place Application SW 13 1567
    Ms Tracy Day 11February 2014 Swale Borough Council Swale House East Street Sittingbourne Kent, ME10 3HT Dear Ms Day Planning Application SW/13/1567 – Land opposite Greenways, Brogdale Road, Faversham I apologise for the lateness of this letter, but trust it is still in time for your consideration. As you will know, CPRE Protect Kent is the Kent Branch of the Campaign to Protect Rural England which is part of the national CPRE charity. It is our objective to retain and promote a beautiful and thriving countryside that is valued by everyone and we believe the planning system should protect and enhance the countryside in the public interest for the important contribution it makes to peoples’ physical and mental wellbeing, as well as its vital role in feeding the nation. It is our position that local planning authorities should seek to ensure that the impact of development on the countryside, both directly and indirectly, is kept to a minimum and that development is sustainable in accordance with national planning policy. We have looked very closely at this application and the supporting documentation, and we are familiar with the site. For the reasons we explain in this letter we consider that the application should be refused permission. Introduction Section 38(6) of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 requires planning applications to be determined in accordance with the Development Plan unless other material planning considerations indicate that a different decision should be made. This plan-led approach to development is endorsed and enshrined in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF - e.g.

This Neighbourhood Plan is submitted by the parish councils of Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk, in Kent, both being qualifying bodies as defined by the Localism Act 2011. The parishes were designated as a Neighbourhood Area under the Neighbourhood Planning Regulations 2012, Part 2, and Section 6 by Swale Borough Council on 19th September 2013. Strategically, the message of this Plan is that both the villages feel they are under siege. The pressure comes from two directions – increased traffic and proposed housing developments. Traffic: We sit at the head of the bottleneck leading to the Channel ports; Brenley Corner is among the nation’s blackest of black spots and, given the increasing demands of heavy goods vehicles travelling between the continent and the UK, the pressure on the through roads and country lanes and lay-bys, can only get worse. The quality of the air we breathe will also be affected.
