Committee and date South Planning Committee 19 December 2017 Development Management Report Summary of Application Application Number: 17/03661/EIA Parish: Sheriffhales Proposal: Proposed new access & installation of processing plant to facilitate sand & gravel extraction on adjacent Woodcote Wood site Site Address: Woodcote Wood, Weston Heath, Shropshire Applicant: NRS Limited Case Officer: Graham French email: [email protected] Recommendation:- Grant Permission subject to the conditions and legal obligations set out in Appendix 1. Contact: Tim Rogers (01743) 258773 Woodcote Wood, Weston Heath, Shropshire Planning Committee – 19 December 2017 (17/03661/EIA) REPORT 1.0 BACKGROUND 1.1 Woodcote Wood is identified as a ‘preferred area’ for sand and gravel extraction in the Shropshire Telford and Wrekin Minerals Local Plan (1996-2006). The policies of this plan are currently ‘saved’ in Telford and Wrekin and have been superseded in the Shropshire Council administrative area by the Shropshire Core Strategy and the SAMDev plan. 1.2 The planning committee of the former Shropshire County Council resolved to approve proposals to extract sand and gravel at Woodcote Wood at its meeting on 25/7/06 (ref. SC/MB2005/0336/BR). The proposals involve extraction of 2.55 million tonnes of sand and gravel at a rate of approximately 200,000 tonnes per annum, giving an operational life of some 13 years. The approval resolution was subject to a legal agreement covering off site highway matters and other issues. 1.3 The proposals involved access via a proposed new roundabout at the junction of the A41 and the Sheriffhales Road. However, the third party land required to construct the roundabout was not made available. -

Telford & Wrekin Council
TELFORD & WREKIN COUNCIL West Midlands Property Alliance Using assets for growth Introduction Background Telford and Wrekin is a unitary district with borough status in the West Midlands. The district was created in 1974 as The Wrekin, then a non-metropolitan district of Shropshire. In 1998 the district became a unitary authority and was renamed Telford and Wrekin. It remains part of the Shropshire ceremonial county and shares institutions such as the Fire and Rescue Service with the rest of Shropshire. The borough’s major settlement is Telford, a new town designated in the 1960s incorporating the existing towns of Dawley, Madeley, Oakengates and Wellington. Telford was a new town run by the Telford Development Corporation (TDC) from the 1960s to the changes in 1974. Telford is located in central England with excellent connectivity by road and rail to Birmingham, Manchester, London and other centres. This connectivity includes an international railfreight park serving businesses looking to move goods across the UK and to air and sea ports. The population of the borough is 173,000 set to rise to 200,000 by 2030. The town was designed to accommodate a population of 200,000 and so has the necessary space and infrastructure for a growth area. Telford is home to more than 5,000 companies of which 150 are international. It has a strong automotive and engineering base as well as a broad range of other companies. There is a ready workforce of 350,000 within a 30 minute drive of Telford. Situated just 12 miles from the new Jaguar Landrover plant at i54 Telford is well placed to capitalise on supply chain opportunities. -

Shropshire's Churchyard Yews
’CHURCHYARD YEWS painted by Rev. Edward Williams M.A. more than two hundred years ago photographs by Tim Hills between 1997 and 2012 Between 1786 and 1791 Rev. Edward Williams made a record of most of ’parish churches. He was described in The Gentlem’ magazine vol 153 as “ excellent ” who had also “much of ” We are told in The annals and magazine of natural history, zoology and botany - vol 1 p183 that his studies included “ catalogue of all the plants which he had detected during many years' careful herborization of the county of ”for which “accuracy is well known, and perfect reli- ance can be placed on any plant which he ” Williams work thus gives us a rare opportunity to see some of Shropshir’churchyard yew trees as they appeared two hundred and twenty years ago. The examples below give us reason to be confident in the accuracy of his recording. The yew at Boningale (left) now has a girth of about 13ft, while that at Bucknell (centre) now has a girth of about 19ft, and the Norbury giant (right) has a girth above 33ft. His attention to detail is illustrated in this example at Tasley. In the painting we can clearly see that sections of the bole are leaning outwards, a process which has led to the distinctive yew we see today. On the following pages, 28 of the yews in ’paintings are seen as they appeared two hundred and twenty years ago and at they are now. We are grateful to Shropshire Archives for granting us permission to use their material in this way. -

Rural Settlement List 2014
National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose. -
