Neighbourhood Development Resident 4 Plan V2—Winter 2017 Here are our comments on and contributions towards the updated ‘Everton Parish Draft 7 Consultee Page Para. Vision/ Support / Comments received Parish Council Amendments to NP Name No. No. Objective Object / Consideration Address / Policy Comment No. Ref. No. Neighbourhood Development Plan V2—Winter 2017’: Firstly we are very pleased to see that the proposed sites NP02 and NP03 (shown on Map 12) have been deleted from the plan, as confirmed in sections 6.30 and 6.31 of the Version 2 edition. These should never have been included, as we had pointed out in our previous submission. We also drew attention to the fact that one of these sites, NP03, had already been refused planning permission and then refused again on appeal, which was itself a reason not to include it—and that sites such as these ought not to be encouraged as they would create difficulties in refusing permission on adjacent or nearby plots 8 Consultee Page Para. Vision/ Support / Comments received Parish Council Amendments to NP Name No. No. Objective Object / Consideration Address / Policy Comment No. Ref. No. thereby creating cascading domino development effects. 4.2 All Comment Avoiding precedents: Noted. No change. There is a principle here that we contend should be applied throughout Everton Parish as part of the Plan, which is that avoiding the creation of planning precedents that may have a foreseeable impact on its overall character and environment in the longer term, should always be a consideration—and that there should be a presumption against this written into the Plan. 9 Consultee Page Para.

In Bassetlaw, however, the first sign that spring is just around the corner is heralded by the annual Hodscock Snowdrop Festival. This event attracts visitors from far and wide to see the millions of snowdrops in fragrant winter borders. The height of summer is the time when musical, artistic and cultural activities are staged throughout the district and the rural villages of Bassetlaw abound with summer festivities. Many residents open their gardens to the public and stage spectacular village events. A leisurely walk along the Chesterfield Canal is probably one of the best ways to enjoy a long summer evening, stopping to sample the delights of one the many picturesque pubs along the way. As evenings draw in and the leaves turn to gold, the stunning autumnal displays seen in Clumber Park can easily rival those of America’s New England states.

  • The State and the Country House in Nottinghamshire, 1937-1967
    THE STATE AND THE COUNTRY HOUSE IN NOTTINGHAMSHIRE, 1937-1967 Matthew Kempson, BSc. MA. Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2006 Abstract This thesis considers the state preservation and use of Nottinghamshire country houses during the mid-twentieth century, from the initiation of mass requisition in 1937 until 1967 when concerns for architectural preservation moved away from the country house. This thesis reviews literature on the landed estate in the twentieth century and the emergence of preservationist claims on the country house. Three substantive sections follow. The first discusses the declining representation of landowners within local governance in Nottinghamshire and the constitution of the County Council, and considers how estate space was incorporated within broadened concerns for the preservation of the historic environment and additionally provided the focus for the implementation of a variety of modern state and non-state functions. The second section considers how changing policy and aesthetic judgements impacted upon the preservation of country houses. Through discussion of Rufford Abbey, Winkburn Hall and Ossington Hall I consider the complexities of preservationist claims and how these conflicted with the responsibilities of the state and the demands of private landowners. The third section considers how estate space became valued by local authorities in the implementation of a variety of new modern educational uses, including the teacher training college at Eaton Hall and a school campus development at Bramcote Hills. The thesis concludes by considering the status of the country house in Nottinghamshire since 1967, and contemporary demands on the spaces considered historically in this study.
