Our vision for the scheme is that through partnership, Peregrini Lindisfarne will protect, restore, enhance and manage this special place as one environment. We will draw upon the Island and Mainland communities' close connection to their landscape, seascape, heritage and history to make the area a better place to work, live in and visit. The six main aims of our scheme combine to create the reality of one environment management; recognising the links between land, sea and shore and putting the community at their heart. Planned works will protect, restore and enhance the area’s rich natural, cultural and built heritage centred on shared inter-tidal waters. Community led activities will weave the various strands of heritage into the creation of one community-led archive. Agency working will be analysed, developed and improved, promoting a cohesive experience of land and seascape. Local people will be trained and empowered to participate in the development of the Holy Island Partnership as an agent of, and for, the community, which can plan for future management and maintenance of landscape intiatives . The scheme area is within the north Northumberland coastal plain, a landscape of sandy coastline. The area is rich in biodiversity including five UK priority habitats, very rare plant species, rich wildlife habitats (particularly for migratory and breeding birds) and high geological and geomorphological interest. The distinctive historic heritage of the area reflects both ecclesiastical influences and the strategic defence of coast and border. Cultural heritage is entwined with connections to St Aidan, St Cuthbert and the associated monasteries, cells and hermitages; the island’s association with the Golden Age of Northumbria; and the Lindisfarne Gospels most immediately reflected in its name. The scheme name was chosen to remind us of the monks and other devout itinerants who, in search of wilderness and tranquillity, built monasteries and cells on remote islands such as Lindisfarne. These people were known as peregrini; it gives us the word pilgrim, thousands of whom regularly visit this area today. Work on developing the scheme began in late 2009, emerging from the work of the Holy Island Partnership. This partnership is made up of agencies working in the area, the Parish Councils and the Holy Island of Lindisfarne Community Development Trust; its action plan addresses three areas of activity: landscape, visitor management and community cohesion. At the end of this LCAP in 2018 the Holy Island Partnership will safeguard the legacy of the Peregrini Lindisfarne Landscape Partnership Scheme. Peregrini Lindisfarne Landscape Conservation Action Plan P a g e | 6 Introduction For a number of years there had been suggestions that the residents and agencies working in and around the Holy Island of Lindisfarne should come together to better manage issues affecting the island community1. The Holy Island Partnership (HIP) finally came into being in 2009 after the Parish Council and the island’s Community Development Trust invited organisations to collaborate in a working partnership. The organisations approached were: National Trust English Heritage Natural England Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Northumberland County Council The HIP produced a management plan in 2010 that identified three key themes to be addressed by partnership working: visitor management, landscape conservation and communication and cohesion2. In its first year the HIP made the tentative, but positive, step of producing a joint information leaflet for the island. The following year the HIP – working through the development trust acting as accountable body – secured a grant from Northumberland Coast and Lowlands New Leader EU Regional Development Programme for England to address visitor management. Additionally Heritage Lottery Funding was approved to embark on an 18-month development phase for a Landscape Partnership Scheme called Peregrini Lindisfarne. Peregrini Lindisfarne Partnership Board This Peregrini Lindisfarne Landscape Conservation Action Plan has been prepared by the Peregrini Lindisfarne Partnership Board. The Board has been formed from members of the Holy Island Partnership and other individuals and organisations chosen for their skills, knowledge and experience. 1 Northumberland County Council (s.d. approx. 1997) 2 Holy Island Partnership ( 2010) Peregrini Lindisfarne Landscape Conservation Action Plan P a g e | 7 The Peregrini Lindisfarne Partnership Board is made up of members of the community, volunteers, the local authority and agencies working in the area with a specific remit for heritage landscape planning, management and protection (see Table 1). The board evolved out of the extensive consultation process undertaken during the development of the first stage application to Heritage Lottery Fund. Following the success of the first-stage application, a Peregrini Lindisfarne Scheme Development Officer was employed to coordinate the preparation of the original LCAP; this work took place between November 2011 and January 2013. The Scheme has been re-profiled between March to June 2014, the changes are reflected in this document.

  • Northumberland Coast Designation History
    DESIGNATION HISTORY SERIES NORTHUMBERLAND COAST AONB Ray Woolmore BA(Hons), MRTPI, FRGS December 2004 NORTHUMBERLAND COAST AONB Origin 1. The Government first considered the setting up of National Parks and other similar areas in England and Wales when, in 1929, the Prime Minister, Ramsay Macdonald, established a National Park Committee, chaired by the Rt. Hon. Christopher Addison MP, MD. The “Addison” Committee reported to Government in 1931, and surprisingly, the Report1 showed that no consideration had been given to the fine coastline of Northumberland, neither by witnesses to the Committee, nor by the Committee itself. The Cheviot, and the moorland section of the Roman Wall, had been put forward as National Parks by eminent witnesses, but not the unspoilt Northumberland coastline. 2. The omission of the Northumberland coastline from the 1931 Addison Report was redressed in 1945, when John Dower, an architect/planner, commissioned by the Wartime Government “to study the problems relating to the establishment of National Parks in England and Wales”, included in his report2, the Northumberland Coast (part) in his Division C List: “Other Amenity Areas NOT suggested as National Parks”. Dower had put forward these areas as areas which although unlikely to be found suitable as National Parks, did deserve and require special concern from planning authorities “in order to safeguard their landscape beauty, farming use and wildlife, and to increase appropriately their facilities for open-air recreation”. A small-scale map in the Report, (Map II page 12), suggests that Dower’s Northumberland Coast Amenity Area stretched southwards from Berwick as a narrow coastal strip, including Holy Island, to Alnmouth.

    Walking Holidays in Britain’s most Beautiful Landscapes Northumberland Coast Path The Northumberland Coast is best known for its sweeping beaches, imposing castles, rolling dunes, high rocky cliffs and isolated islands. Amidst this striking landscape is the evidence of an area steeped in history, covering 7000 years of human activity. A host of conservation sites, including two National Nature Reserves testify to the great variety of wildlife and habitats also found on the coast. The 64miles / 103km route follows the coast in most places with an inland detour between Belford and Holy Island. The route is generally level with very few climbs.
