This has resulted in erosion in other areas along the coast. In combination with the effects of rising sea levels, this has led to the possibility of existing flood defence failure. The aim of this Strategy is therefore to determine a more sustainable way to develop coastal and flood management options, which takes into account the natural environment of this coast as well as the need to sustain the human and built environment. The Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Report is an integral part of the Strategy. The preliminary stage of the SEA is to prepare a baseline and objectives, of which this is a non-technical summary. The baseline: details the existing environmental conditions present within the Strategy study area (Figure 1); lists the key concerns of stakeholders; and defines environmental objectives for each component of the environment. The next stage in the Christchurch Bay and Harbour Strategy is to develop a long list of strategic options. These will be assessed by the Project Team and Steering Group in terms of their technical feasibility, environmental acceptability, economic viability and consequences in order to develop a short list of site strategic options. The short list of options will be issued to all consultees for comment and appraised against the objectives identified in the SEA, as well as for their technical and economic viability. Existing Environment The strategy study area is situated on the south coast of England, encompassing approx 16km of frontage within the counties of Dorset and Hampshire. The boundaries of the Christchurch Bay study area is delineated by Hengistbury Head long groyne to the west and Hurst Spit to the east. Hengistbury Head provides protection to Christchurch Harbour and the town of Christchurch that lies along its northern boundary. The coastline of the bay consists of eroding clay cliffs backed by a combination of settlements and agricultural land. Geology, Palaeontology and Geomorphology The geology of the area predominantly comprises sands, clays and marls of the Headon and Barton beds. The cliffs between Highcliffe and Milford on Sea are of international significance for geological conservation. Important sites include the cliffs between Highcliffe and Barton on Sea, the coastal section from Friars Cliff to Milford on Sea and the Hordle Cliff. There are a number of fossil rich cliffs within the study area. There are conflicts between the need to maintain geological exposures for conservation and study and the wish to prevent cliff recession to protect property by constructing and maintaining defences. The coastline of Christchurch Bay has undergone significant erosion. Hengistbury Head, Mudeford Spit and Hurst Spit all play a key role in the overall morphology of the Bay. In their absence it is likely that the coast from Durlston Head to Hurst Spit would evolve into a single bay and erosion of the cliffs would increase from wave attack. Ecology and Nature Conservation Significant features of nature conservation importance in the Bay include coastal sand dunes, saltmarsh, vegetated shingle, earth heritage, sublittoral rock, maritime cliff and slopes, reedbeds and saline lagoons. The coastline of the Bay is composed of a suite of habitats, including terrestrial, semi-aquatic, freshwater/mildly brackish and marine all combining to form a stretch of open coast of great variety. There are four Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs), eleven Sites of Nature Conservation Interest (SNCIs), and two Local Nature Reserves (LNRs) in the study area. Hengistbury Head and Hurst Spit form part of candidate Special Areas of Conservation (cSACs) and Special Protection Areas (SPAs), designated under European Directives for their nature conservation importance. Coastal squeeze is likely to change the character of many sites within the study area, particularly low-lying saltmarsh and reedbeds within Christchurch Harbour. Erosion of Hengistbury Head is also reducing areas of maritime heathland and grassland. Christchurch Borough Council has recently completed a coastal defence scheme at Mudeford Sandbanks due to its strategic importance in defending the town. The existence of the Hurst Spit is vital to the continued protection of the existing saltmarshes and mudflats in the western Solent, which are exhibiting extensive dieback, and are also receding through wave attack. The spit has become short of material as a result of defence construction within Christchurch Bay and in recent years has been reinforced with groynes and shingle recharge. Landscape There is one landscape designation in the study area, the South Hampshire coast Area of Natural Beauty (AONB). Hurst Spit is also considered to be of high landscape importance and is also included within this designation. Within the Countryside Agency‟s Character Initiatives there are two Character Areas of relevance to this study, Dorset Heaths and New Forest. The landscape setting of the study area can mainly be divided into open coast of Christchurch Bay and the naturally sheltered harbour of Christchurch Harbour. Land use and Population The main land uses within the study area include settlements, agriculture, tourism, leisure and recreation. Agriculture within the study area is of varying quality, ranging from Grade 2 in the area of Keyhaven and Milford-on-Sea, to Grade 4 around Milford and Barton. Hampshire County Council characterise the area as open coastal plain. There is little opportunity for agriculture around Christchurch, as the harbour waterfront is highly developed. Christchurch is the main town within the study area and borders the northern edge of Christchurch Harbour. It has a population of 45,000, of which more than 34% are of a pensionable age. Most of the commercial activity is situated here with the major employment sectors being „high technology‟, aviation with industrial sites providing the remaining business. Towns and villages lying to the east of Christchurch include Milford on Sea, New Milton, Barton on Sea and Highcliffe, which are all mainly residential, with tourism and service providing the main employment. Transport Network and Traffic The principal road network is the A35 from Bournemouth to Christchurch. The main railway link is the South Coast route, which is part of the Trans-European rail network. Car and passenger ferries operate between Yarmouth (Isle of Wight) and Lymington, just east of the study area. Passenger ferries operate between Keyhaven and Yarmouth and from Keyhaven to Hurst Castle. Water and Aquatic Environment There are five main rivers within the study area with varying degrees of quality. The River Stour and Avon, feeding into Christchurch Harbour, the Walkford Brook, the Becton Bunny and the Danes Stream, which discharges just beyond the study area, are all are monitored by the Environment Agency for their chemical and biological content (General Quality Assessments), and are set River Quality Objectives (RE classifications), for which they have to meet.

  • The Parish of Christchurch the Priory Church of the Holy Trinity, Christchurch St George, Jumpers  St John at Purewell for Sunday 9 May, 2021
    The Parish of Christchurch The Priory Church of the Holy Trinity, Christchurch St George, Jumpers St John at Purewell for Sunday 9 May, 2021 Dear Friends, Our journey through these eight weeks of Easter takes a new direction on Thursday 13th, when the Church celebrates Ascension Day. In addition to our customary morning services at the Priory (11.00) and St George’s (10.00), we shall mark this important festival by holding a Eucharist for Ascension Day at 7.00pm that evening in the Priory. The Ascension appears in the list of Jesus’ life events recorded in the Apostles' Creed – conception, birth, crucifixion, death, resurrection, ascension and, the only one yet to happen, when Jesus shall “come again to judge the living and the dead”. Ascension is the sign that Jesus has been vindicated as our Saviour and now reigns as Lord; that "at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord" (Phil 2.10). Ascension is the confirmation that the salvation Jesus achieved on the cross and released through the resurrection means that humanity has been redeemed and is now taken up into heaven with Christ. Ascension is the sign that, in Christ, we have direct access to God our Father, to worship him in all we are and in all we do; for Christ has restored the fellowship of heaven and earth. * * * * * As every year since 2016, Thy Kingdom Come begins on Ascension Day and continues until Pentecost, on May 23rd.

  • 10 Rook Hill Road, Friars Cliff, Christchurch, Dorset, BH23 4DZ PRICE: ‘OIEO’ £900,000
    10 Rook Hill Road, Friars Cliff, Christchurch, Dorset, BH23 4DZ PRICE: ‘OIEO’ £900,000 Rook Hill Road is arguably one of the best roads road in the heart of Friars Cliff with its award winning sandy beaches just yards away. A most attractive chalet style property, set in its own well tended grounds approaching a third of an acre. The property was one of the first homes to be built here and has been in the hands of the same family since new. Over recent times as nearby homes have been sold, they have been subject to much refurbishment or even complete re-build, creating much larger properties designed to personal tastes. We feel that the sale of this property would suit this purpose very well subject to the usual planning constraints. Christchurch town centre is under 3 miles away with its mainline train station giving access to London Waterloo in under two hours. Interest in this sale is likely to be very high and we strongly advise early inspection to avoid disappointment. Plot dimensions. Width 20m, 65ft. Depth 54.5m 178.9 ft. Total plot size just under 1/3 acre. Entrance into the property via a porch and a further obscure glazed door into the inner hallway. There is flexible ground floor accommodation, immediately to your right upon entry is a dual aspect dining room with parquet flooring and brick built open fire place. There is a ground floor double bedroom located on the front of the property, and a very pleasant triple aspect living room to the other side of the property and running front to back.
