Approach to the Settlement Hierarchy p. 11 5. Updated Settlement Hierarchy for the Local Plan 2015-2035 p. 15 6. Settlement Profiles p. 22 7. Conclusions p. 24 Page | 2 Executive Summary The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) encourages Local Planning Authorities (LPAs) to identify within their Local Plans, appropriate locations for development. These should account for social, economic and environmental opportunities and ensure that the location of development is sustainable. The Settlement Hierarchy is a useful tool to determine the role of settlements, according to a number of factors including population size, services available within a settlement, consideration of Green Belt boundaries and transport connections. The Settlement Hierarchy for Sevenoaks District has 5 settlement classifications, ranking from the most sustainable (Principal Town Centre) to the least sustainable type of settlements (Hamlets): Principal Town – Sevenoaks Urban Area (Sevenoaks Town including Bessels Green, Chipstead, Dunton Green and Riverhead), Towns - Swanley, Edenbridge (including Marlpit Hill) and Westerham Local Service Centres – Hartley, New Ash Green and Otford Villages – West Kingsdown, South Darenth, Hextable, Seal, Brasted, Kemsing, Eynsford, Crockenhill, Halstead, Leigh, Farningham, Sevenoaks Weald, Knockholt (with Knockholt Pound), Sundridge, Shoreham, Four Elms, and Horton Kirby.. Hamlets – Penshurst, Hever, Fawkham, Ide Hill, Chiddingstone, Chiddingstone Causeway, Badgers Mount, Cowden, Underriver, Crockham Hill, Fordcombe, Hodsoll Street, Ash, Stone Street, Mark Beech, Swanley Village, Chiddingstone Hoath, Toys Hill, Well Hill, Chevening, Knatts Valley, Bough Beech, Bitchet Green, Heaverham, Godden Green, Mark Beech and Pratts Bottom.

  • Review of Polling Districts, Polling Places and Polling Stations : Consultation Document
    Review of polling districts, polling places and polling stations : Consultation document Introduction All district councils are required to complete a review of polling districts and polling places every five years, ahead of scheduled Parliamentary General Elections. This particular review must, by law, be completed by 31 January 2020, although best practice dictates it should be concluded, where practicable, in advance of the publication of the next revised Register of Electors on 1 December 2019 to enable any changes to take effect from that date. The purpose of the review is to ensure electors are given “such reasonable facilities for voting as are practicable in the circumstances.” As part of the statutory review, contributions from the (Acting) Returning Officers for the Parliamentary Constituencies that represent the district should be sought. As such, Sevenoaks District Council has consulted with the (Acting) Returning Officers for the Dartford, Sevenoaks and Tonbridge & Malling constituencies, and their contributions are included within this consultation document. This consultation document contains an assessment of existing and proposed polling districts and polling places within the district. Commenting on the proposed recommendations We welcome the views of all residents, particularly disabled residents, or any person or body with expertise in access for persons with any type of disability, on the proposals within this consultation document. Anyone making representations should, if relevant, give alternative places that may be used as polling places. The consultation period runs from 31 July 2019 to 1 October 2019. Any changes are expected to take effect from the publication of the new Register of Electors on 1 December 2019.

Transport 7 4. Community Faclities 9 5. Historic Buildings 10 6. The Northern end of the village 10 7. The Wildernesse Estate 11 8. Godden Green 11 9. The surrounding countryside 12 10. Future Changes 13 11. Design 14 Appendix 16 2 3 This Village Design Statement is an update of that produced in 2004 at the request of Seal Parish Council. This update reflects changes in planning guidance and the environment as well as the views of residents of Seal as expressed in their responses to a questionnaire in September 2010. This Statement covers Seal Ward - that is, the centre of the village, the housing areas along Childsbridge Lane to the north, and the surrounding countryside west as far as the Sevenoaks boundary one way, and east towards Seal Chart the other way. To the south it covers the eastern end of the Wildernesse Estate, and the separate hamlet of Godden Green. Village Design Statements (VDSs) are intended to give local people a chance to say how they want their communities to look in the future. They have to be prepared in conformity with the Core Strategy of the Local Development Framework (in our case, the Sevenoaks District Core Strategy, adopted by the SDC in February 2011). Their purpose is to elaborate those plans in the detail required for local application. Once agreed by the local residents and endorsed by the Parish and the District Councils, they have the legal status of Supplementary Planning Guidance.

  • Development Control Committee
    DEVELOPMENT CONTROL COMMITTEE 22 MAY 2008 LATE OBSERVATION SHEET Item No. 5.01 SE/07/03480/FUL Ducks Grove, Underriver House Road, Underriver, Sevenoaks, Kent Late observations were received from Mr Miles Hayward (The applicants husband). They are summarised as follows: 1. The tree advice is conflicting between the report commissioned by the applicant and Councils arborist. 2. More time was spent by the applicant‟s tree specialist, than the council‟s arborist on site. 3. Verbal discussions between the applicant and Council‟s arboriculture officer verbally stated that there would not be a problem if the store was moved away from the tree. 4. The arborist report was submitted after the determination date of 21st Feb. Therefore how can his comments be validated. 5. The paragraph stating „the property is developed with a converted barn close to Underriver House Road does not make sense. The site is accessed via a 150m long private road leading from Underriver House Road: 6. The house is not visible from Underriver House Road, the 2 protected trees are within 5 metres of each other and are not located close to Underriver House Road. 7. The proposal is incorrectly referred to as a garage / store. 8. It was mentioned to the planning officer(s) on numerous occasions that we intend to remove 2 sheds erected in 1989 to be considered under VSC. The combined floor space is greater than the garden store. 9. „Inadequate storage‟ should be considered as valid VSC. 10. Can clarification be given to the word „Harm‟ on page 6 of the report.

  • Walking Guide
    point your feet on a new path Underriver Distance: 9½ km=6 miles easy walking Region: Kent Date written: 14-jul-2020 Author: Malinovka Last update 2-apr-2021 Refreshments: Underriver, Shipbourne Map: Explorer 147 (Sevenoaks) but the map in this guide should be sufficient Problems, changes? We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. Villages, easy field paths, woodland, natural water garden, great houses, parkland, extensive grasslands, oak avenues, forest tracks In Brief This is a walk between two villages through a remarkable Kentish land- scape which for centuries was dominated by great estates. Consequently, instead of arable land, you will stride along a whole kilometer of waving grass; and instead of a farm track you will walk the length of the most perfect avenue of great oaks. Between these, there are long woodland walks and green pastures. The splendid White Rock pub in Underriver has now re-opened as from 20 October! (See their website or ring 01732-833112 to book ahead as they are only able to serve seated guests). There is also a first-class pub/restaurant in Shipbourne with plenty of outdoor seating (to enquire at the Chaser Inn , ring 01732-810360). This walk is almost entirely on firm paths, through woodland, across fields and on wide tracks. The field paths are clear and well made. There are some stiles but they are all of the very robust Kentish standard and you can cross them almost without breaking stride.
