For office use Details of Objection/ Comment./Representation Name /Organisation Andrew Taylor Helen Pinder-Taylor Nunney, Local Green Space Codes: Please indicate the document to which your LGSNUN001 representation relates (e.g. policy, paragraph LGSNUN002 number, HELAA site reference ) Land Registry No: WS45909 Do you consider the Local Plan is Legally Compliant? 1 Yes No Do you consider the Local Plan is Sound? We can't answer this because we have no knowledge or means by which to make this Yes No assessment. It would require an expert legal review. Do you consider it necessary to participate at Yes, if you are minded to reject our examination hearings? (eg present oral opposition, we would like to attend a hearing evidence) with you. Please provide details below of why you consider the Local Plan is not legally compliant or is unsound. Please be as precise as possible. If you wish to support the legal compliance and soundness of the plan, please also use this box to set out your comments. 1 See our Online Guidance note on what these terms mean 2 Mendip Local Plan Part II: Sites & Policies - Issues and Options Consultation We are writing as registered land owners affected by your proposed LGS designations LGSNUN001 and LGSNUN002. We object to both these nominations. We set out our reasons below. LGSNUN001 & LGSNUN002 Your rules say that no designation should be made if the land is "already protected by other designations" and the rules go on to say that "sites which fall within the curtilage of a listed building or Conservation Area do not necessarily need additional protection under this policy". Nunney Court and its grounds are Listed Grade II and are also in a Conservation Area. Both regimes already provide all the protection the public needs in relation to development. Your rules say "The Local Green Space designation will not be appropriate for most green areas or open space" and only where the "area is demonstrably special to a local community and holds a particular local significance". The areas covered by your two proposed designations are not demonstrably special nor hold particular significance. If you assert that they do, you will need to provide the evidence. LGSNUN001 Your rules state that "private gardens" may not warrant protection and then only in "exceptional circumstances". All of this is our garden. It cannot be right that people's gardens become LGSs. If that were the case, there are other gardens (large and small) in Nunney that you must, for the sake of fairness, also designate. Furthermore, half of LGSNUN001 is our walled garden [MARKED 'A' on the plan set out below] which is enclosed, private, and cannot be seen by any member of the public (eg it cannot be viewed from Donkey Lane or Church Street). The other half [MARKED 'B'] can be only viewed from Donkey Lane and Church Street because we recently removed an impenetrable, thick and tall bank of leylandii and laurel from along the whole boundary. For many years and perhaps decades before that, no one could see in. In any case, it is still part of our garden and should not be designated (see above). LGSNUN002 We own part of LGSNUN002 [MARKED 'C'] This area is entirely covered by thick, wild woodland and undergrowth. It adjoins Nunney Brook and is low lying, and therefore is boggy and floods when it rains. Even a little rain raises Nunney Brook enough to flood the area. It contains a historic but silted up mill pond (that is also covered with trees and undergrowth) which partially explains why it floods so easily. If you go further back in time, part of the land was used as a reed bed for processing sewage, which is consistent with it being low-lying at virtually the same level as the stream. It cannot be said to be green space. Your rules state "In the previous Local Plan (2002) trees and walls were included. However, trees and woodlands are protected by other means … ". It is clear that woodland is not supposed to be covered by the LGS regime and trees will only be covered incidentally if they happen to be part of the space in question ("trees or woodland could form part of a site that has value as a green space trees are only included"). OTHER AREAS IN NUNNEY You have not included an open space that should be designated an LGS. It is an enclosed field adjacent to Nunney Castle. [Marked 'D']. It slopes upwards and overlooks the north side of the castle. It is an important part of the aspect of the castle and if it were to be developed it would significantly affect the setting of the castle. It clearly meets your criteria for a green space which is important to the thousands of members of the public who visit the castle each year. In any event, English Heritage who manage the castle should be consulted by you. It also has historical significance. It is almost certainly the site of the cannon which the 3 Mendip Local Plan Part II: Sites & Policies - Issues and Options Consultation parliamentarian forces used to breach the north wall of the castle to end their siege during the English Civil War. See the three photos below which we try to demonstrate the setting. MARKED PLAN 4 Mendip Local Plan Part II: Sites & Policies - Issues and Options Consultation PHOTOS OF PLOT MARKED 'D' In the final photo, the field is at the back of the castle, to the right hand side. 5 Mendip Local Plan Part II: Sites & Policies – Pre-Submission Consultation Consultation Response Form Please use this form to respond or make representations on Local Plan Part II and associated consultation documents.

Henry Hobhotjse presided at the beginning of the meeting and proposed the election of Mr. Henry Balfour, M.A., f.r.g.s., F.z.s., f.s.a., as President for the ensuing year. Mr. Hobhouse said that the Society was to be congratulated upon having secured such a well known ethnologist and archaeologist as Mr. Balfour, in succession to such a distin- guished Roman scholar as Dr. Haverfield. For many years Mr. Balfour has filled the important position of Curator of the Pitt Rivers Museum in the University of Oxford ; he was a past President of the Royal Anthropological Institute and of Section H of the British Association. Mr. C. Tite seconded, and the motion having been heartily carried, Mr. Balfour took the chair as president.

I hope you all have a lovely, restful weekend as we have an action packed last week planned. Squirrels class, remember you will be visiting Nunney Castle and not arriving at school on Monday morning!

  • Village History
    Wanstrow Village History FOREWORD What determines the character of a village? Usually it is a combination of things situation, architecture, building materials, agriculture, gardening reflecting the occupations, tastes and prosperity of the inhabitants. Always it is best appreciated with some knowledge of its history. The character of Wanstrow may seem enigmatic to someone driving through it on the main road, but let him stop to wander unhurriedly and it will soon take shape in his mind. It is not a picture postcard village with cottages curved prettily around a green; rather it has a linear shape and the rich variety of buildings testifies to centuries of organic growth. That growth has owed little to the most common influences, squire and parson. It has had more to do with yeoman farmers, craftsmen and artisans, largely impervious to the outside world until the last century. Nothing spectacular occurred here; neither King Charles I nor the Duke of Monmouth passed this way. Judge Jeffreys did not hold an assize at Wanstrow and none of the villagers was hanged as a result. Wherever else Queen Elizabeth I slept, it was not at the Wanstrow Inn. In fact it was so unnewsworthy as to prompt the quotation "Happy the land that has no history". Yet although Wanstrow may not flaunt its charms, they are real. A visitor who walks the length of the High Street, from the church at one end to the bridges at the other, will find it a rewarding experience. And although Wanstrow's history may be undramatic, it has many points of interest the potteries, the church, the railway, the manor, the farming, the pubs, the school, the turnpike, the name all the things which have gone to form its character.
