South Gloucestershire Community Profiles

South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

Community Profiles

1. Introduction

1.1 As part of the production and preparation of South Gloucestershire Council’s Core Strategy, Community Profiles have been prepared for most of the urban communities and rural settlements that comprise South Gloucestershire.

1.2 This work has helped gain an understanding of the role and function of different places, how they compare with each other, and how they work to form a network of settlements based on existing data sources. The results of this work have contributed to informing decisions about how suitable urban communities and rural settlements are to accommodate potential future growth and development, and what type and mix of development could maximise benefits for local communities/settlements. This work has formed an important component of the evidence base for the Council’s Core Strategy.

1.3 In preparing this work, all Community Profiles were consulted on with relevant Town and Parish Councils between October 2007 and April 2008. A total of 31 responses were received from Town and Parish Councils through this consultation process. A number of factual amendments were made as a result, whilst other more subjective comments have been acknowledged and will be used to inform the main Core Strategy document. The profiles then underwent further consultation through the Core Strategy Issues and Options process during summer 2008. As of February 2011, references to the South West Regional Spatial Strategy have been removed to reflect changes in the national planning context. References to specific developments which have been completed since 2008 have also been updated where relevant.

1.4 This paper sets out the sources of information, and has all Community Profiles appended.

2. Methodology

2.1 A total of 48 communities have been profiled. Information on each community is presented in two ways (see attached Community Profiles). The ‘raw’ data is presented on Excel Spread Sheets, and interpreted in the written profiles. The ‘raw’ data is derived from a variety of sources, and the next section identifies all relevant sources. All data is in the public domain. 3. Data Sources

3.1 Population figures are derived from the Census 2001. Depending on the geographical extent covered, some of the settlements/areas Parish population figures have been used, and for others, more specific Census Output Area populations have been used.

3.2 Identification of amenities available in each community are derived from the following sources:

Place of Worship – South Gloucestershire Council’s Geographic Information System Leisure Centre – Local Connection Facility1 on South Gloucestershire website Post Office – www.postoffice.co.uk Pharmacists - Local Connection Facility on South Gloucestershire Council website Petrol Station – Multimap.com or Retail Surveys Cinema – Internet Search Library - Local Connection Facility on South Gloucestershire Council website GP Surgery - Local Connection Facility on South Gloucestershire Council website Dentists - Local Connection Facility on South Gloucestershire Council website Community Hall – Parish websites, Internet search or draft list held be South Gloucestershire Council. NB: Can be any hall that can be used for or hire by the public Playgroups/Nurseries – www.ofsted.gov.uk offers a search facility for playgroups, nurseries, toddlers and out of school groups. Youth Clubs - List of Council run clubs held by South Gloucestershire Council.

3.3 Car Availability is derived from the Census 2001. It is provided on a South Gloucestershire Council and Local (i.e. local to the area/settlement) basis for comparison purposes.

3.4 Economically Active Levels are derived from the Census 2001. It is provided on a South Gloucestershire Council and Local (i.e. local to the area/settlement) basis for comparison purposes.

1 The Local Connection Facility allows people to search for planning history and constraints as well as for local services using an on-line mapping system. It provides useful information on local areas as well as specific properties. It can be found at http://www.southglos.gov.uk/NR/exeres/7b220d12-e16c-4528-9d2d-c44c07f7d7d0 3.5 Economically Inactive Levels are derived from the Census 2001. It is provided on a South Gloucestershire Council and Local (i.e. local to the area/settlement) basis for comparison purposes.

3.6 The state of Health is derived from the Census 2001. It is provided on a South Gloucestershire Council and Local (i.e. local to the area/settlement) basis for comparison purposes.

3.7 Travel to work data is derived from the Census 2001. It is provided on a South Gloucestershire Council and Local (i.e. local to the area/settlement) basis for comparison purposes.

3.8 Housing type and tenure information is derived from the Census 2001. It is provided on a South Gloucestershire Council and Local (i.e. local to the area/settlement) basis for comparison purposes.

3.9 Retail information is derived from the Council’s Retail and Shopping Parades monitoring processes. This information can be updated periodically.

3.10 Public Transport information is derived from two sources. The website www.firstgroup.com/ukbus/southwest/bristol/home/ provides information about those communities in the urban areas to the north of Bristol. The website www.traveline.org.uk provides details on timetables for all other communities in the District. The ‘Route Info’ section of the Public Transport table provides details on some of the important areas/facilities/services that are accessible from that community on any bus service.

3.11 Education information is derived from information held by South Gloucestershire Council and available to the public. Only schools (both primary and secondary) which are within or adjacent to settlements/areas referred to in each individual Community Profile are referred to.

3.12 Crime data is derived from the Profile Point facility held by the local authority.

3.13 Information relating to the type of employment/jobs within each specific area/settlement is derived from the Census 2001. It is provided on a South Gloucestershire Council and Local (i.e. local to the area/settlement) basis for comparison purposes.

3.14 Green Space Provision information is derived from the Council’s ongoing open space, sport and recreation audit. This audit is part of the Council’s emerging Core Strategy. For urban areas, while information has been compiled, no analysis of this information has taken place (for example whether there is a lack of any types of open space). This will be completed before the Core Strategy Issues and Options consultation in April 2008. 3.15 Air Quality: Information relating to air quality issues was taken from South Gloucestershire's "Local Air Quality Updating and Screening Assessment 2006" (May 2006).

3.16 Information on areas of deprivation was taken from the “Priority Neighbourhoods” Cabinet Report Oct 16th 2006. This identified the areas of greatest need in South Gloucestershire based on various indices of deprivation.

3.17 A map of each settlement is provided at the end of each Community Profile (text version). This is derived from the Ordnance Survey, and has all appropriate copyright information attached.

3.18 As outlined above, Census 2001 data has been used as a basis for evidence gathering. It should be noted that since then there may have been changes to the population and number of jobs, for example. However, for the purposes of reliability and consistency, this national dataset has been used. List of Place Profile Areas/Settlements

1. Acton Turville Description and Context Acton Turville is a small village situated on the eastern edge of South Gloucestershire close to the Wiltshire border, at the junction of the B4039 and B4040 and about 8km east of Chipping Sodbury.

Acton Turville is a typical Cotswold village that retains many traditional features and examples of building types which relate to its historical development. The buildings are set close to the road and combine a mixture of styles and materials with local stone predominating. To the north of the village is a small industrial site adjacent to the former Badminton station. The main London – South Wales railway line runs between this industrial site and village housing (but no station connections are available from the village). The village has a lower proportion of young adults than South Gloucestershire average. Constraints Cotswolds AONB Conservation Area

Infrastructure On bus route between Yate and Malmesbury (hourly during week, 2 hourly on Sat, no evening or Sunday service) Within a few minutes drive time of the A46 and Junction 18 of the M4 Primary school, post office, pub, village store, place of worship and mobile library Green Space – Playing field with equipped children’s play area, tennis court, playing field associated with Primary School and churchyard.

Employment In 2001 – around 120 jobs in the area and 170 economically active. Significantly higher proportion of jobs than South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or own account workers, and significantly lower proportion are managerial or professional occupations. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Primary school Range of housing stock, although limited proportion of smaller size and lower cost housing Range of housing tenure Easy access to A46 and M4 for commuting to work Access to bread and milk

Negative High car ownership (94% of households have at least 1 car and 65% have at least 2) and 71% travel to work by car Limited bus service Limited range of facilities South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

2. Almondsbury Description and Context The village of Almondsbury has a population of around 1,770, and is located to the north of the Bristol urban area within the area defined as Green Belt, just north west of M4/M5 interchange. Parts of the village benefit from the prominent position, overlooking the Severn Vale and countryside beyond. The A38 runs through the settlement, providing access into the north of the Bristol urban area, further employment opportunities, and amenities. The village has a higher than average proportion of older residents. Constraints “Washed over” by Green Belt Lower Almondsbury Conservation Area Road infrastructure (national and local) Infrastructure The A38 runs through the village, and provides easy access to the M4, M5 and north of the Bristol urban area. Reasonably well served by public transport, with a ½ hourly service operating in the day time between Monday and Saturday, and every 120 minutes in the evenings and on Sundays. Green Space - A range of formal open space facilities, including football, cricket and rugby pitches and tennis courts are within easy access of Almondsbury. Employment There are around 765 jobs in the Almondsbury area, and the same number of economically active people. The mix of job types roughly matches the South Gloucestershire mix. Larger employers in the area are Ibstock Brick, Computerworld Western Ltd, Hydrock Consultants and The Building Safety Group. Sustainable Community Issues Positive: Good public transport provision Facilities: 1 primary school, and a number of local amenities, including a public house, petrol station selling bread and milk, community hall and GP surgery. Mobile library route I. Close to M5 and M4 Easy access to the north fringe of Bristol

Negative: Car ownership is higher than the South Gloucestershire average A higher proportion (than the South Glos) of the population use private vehicles to travel to and from work. Close to the M4 and M5, which could promote further use of the private car and separate the village from services Easy access to the north fringe may encourage car use Much higher than average detached property profile (and consequential lower than average other dwelling types) Limited range of ‘social’ housing for rent South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

3. Alveston (including Rudgeway) Description and Context Alveston is a compact medium-sized village adjacent to the A38 south of Thornbury. Much of the settlement comprises housing estates built in the 60s and 70s.

Rudgeway straddles the A38 to the south of Alveston. It is a small settlement comprising a mix of housing types and styles, from cottages to detached houses in large gardens.

The two settlements have an aging population, with a higher proportion of 45+ and lower proportion of under 45s than South Glos average Constraints “Washed over” by Green Belt Infrastructure On bus route between Thornbury and Bristol (North Fringe, Cribbs Causeway and City centre). Services daytime and evening everyday – vary between ½ hourly to 2 hourly Adjacent to A38 Primary school and secondary school Range of shops, pubs, community hall, place of worship, mobile library, petrol station, playgroup and youth club Green Space – Cricket ground with pavilion, equipped children’s play area, recreation ground, informal green space and facilities associated with primary and secondary school, cemetery. Employment In 2001 – around 540 jobs in area and 1400 economically active. Significantly higher proportion of jobs than South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or own account workers, and significantly lower proportion are managerial or professional occupations.

Largest employers in local area are Marlwood School (Alveston) and Wyman Dillon (Rudgeway) Sustainable Community Issues Positive Range of shops and services in Alveston Primary and secondary schools in Alveston Good bus service to Thornbury and Bristol Close proximity and access to wider range of services and facilities in Thornbury. Pavement access available alongside road although it is uphill one way.

Negative Low population in Rudgeway No services or facilities in Rudgeway, and distance from Alveston limits access to facilities in this settlement Half the housing stock is detached dwellings and therefore at the higher end of housing prices. Limited job opportunities in local area South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

4. Aust (inc Elberton and Littleton-on-Severn) Description and Context Aust is located to the immediate south of the M48, in close proximity to the Severn Estuary. The villages of Aust, Elberton and Littelton-on-Severn have a combined population of around 520. The village of Aust has a settlement boundary, suggesting that some limited development may be permitted in accordance with policies set out in the Local Plan. Aust is equidistant from Thornbury and the north fringe of the Bristol urban area, both acting as centres for access to amenities and employment. The age structure of the population is older than the South Gloucestershire average. Constraints Coastal Zone The M48 (to the north and east of the village) and A403 (to the west of the village) are barriers to current development. “Washed over” by Green Belt Infrastructure The M48 and A403 provide access to Bristol and South Wales Hourly day time bus service runs from Monday to Saturday from Newport to the centre of Bristol. 1 bus service is provided in the evening, and no service is provided on Sunday. 2 village halls (one in Aust and one in Littleton) and 4 churches. Green Space – Churchyard Employment The area itself has around 240 jobs (Census 2001) and 280 economically active people. The area has a higher proportion of jobs offered by small employers and own account workers, and lower supervisory and technical occupations than the district average, and lower levels of jobs in both higher and lower managerial and professional occupations than the district average.

Larger employers in this area are Travel Lodge and Motion Media Technology, while The Landscape Group are a smaller but still significant employer in the area. Sustainable Communities Issues Positive Two public houses Hourly day time bus service, running from Monday to Saturday. A high proportion of those in employment work from home. Mobile library route C.

Negative Only 1 evening bus service and no Sunday service No primary school A significantly lower than average proportion of the population use public transport for work purposes Higher than average car ownership Much higher than average detached property profile (and consequential lower than average other dwelling types) Lower than average ‘social’ rental properties South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

6. Bradley Stoke Description and Context Bradley Stoke parish is the most northern part of the built up area of Bristol. It is bounded to the north by the M4 and M5 motorways and to the south and west by the urban areas of Patchway and Stoke Gifford.

The area is very accessible to the A38 and M4/M5 interchange, as well as to Parkway railway station.

An extensive area of housing and employment started in the 1980s is nearing completion. A significant proportion (40%) of housing is detached with some of the more recent developments containing higher density terraces and apartments. The area now has a secondary school, a leisure centre and 6 primary schools.

The Town Centre is built around a new Tesco store and range of other shops.

There are significantly more people in the 16-45 age groups and fewer in the over 45 age groups than the South Gloucestershire or national average and the number of retired people is low (28%). Constraints to Development The area is nearing completion and with relatively new housing stock there are few opportunities for redevelopment or infill. The area is bounded to the north by the M4/M5 beyond which land is Green Belt.

Development Opportunities Opportunities are limited mainly to redevelopment or conversion of existing sites and buildings.

Infrastructure Good bus links to the north fringe of Bristol and central Bristol and Yate/Chipping Sodbury. The area is close to the M4/M5 interchange with good access to the motorway network. However, Junctions 16 and 17 and the surrounding roads are heavily congested at peak periods. The town has a good range of community facilities including a secondary school, primary schools, leisure centre (with swimming pool and library), community halls, youth club and nurseries. There are also neighbourhood pubs and shops. Green spaces include cricket field and bowls green and extensive areas of informal open space.

Employment In 2001 there were around 9,610 jobs within the local area and 10,950 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 0.9. In the North Fringe as a whole the ratio of jobs to resident workforce is approximately 2:1. It should be noted that there have been approximately 680 new houses in this area since 2001 South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

whilst total employment numbers have not seen significant changes. Bradley Stoke has access to a range of employment opportunities at Aztec West, Woodlands Lane and elsewhere in the North Fringe and benefits from good access to the motorway network. The percentage of jobs in the higher or lower managerial and professional category is higher than the South Glos average. The numbers in full time work in Bradley Stoke are high in comparison with the South Glos average (74%). Sustainable Community Issues Positive Good public transport links to the North Fringe and central Bristol Access to a wide range jobs in the North Fringe of Bristol urban area Existing housing stock is new and relatively good quality. Levels of rented housing are higher than the district average (19%) but these are very largely private rentals rather than local authority or housing association.

Negative Some parts of the area are very close to the M4/M5 motorways with associated problems with noise and air quality The town centre lacks a full range of shops and services This is a relatively new area which is still establishing a sense of community. The area has relatively high car ownership (93.2% of households have at least one car) and nearly 75% travel to work by car as a driver or passenger. Only 5.6% of workers in Bradley Stoke travel to work on foot. This compares with 13.7% in neighbouring Filton. This may in part result from the density, design and layout of the area.

7. Charfield Description and Context Charfield lies on the B4058 close to the boundary with Gloucestershire (Stroud District). The oldest buildings in Charfield are built out of the local grey limestone and are generally modest in scale. The original village development largely followed a linear pattern along the main road at a low density. The main Birmingham – Penzance railway line divides the village and forms a barrier to movement between the eastern and western parts of the village. There is a regular high speed service on the line which causes noise and disturbance, but the village does not have a station.

Most of the village consists of post war detached and semi -detached housing in brick, the majority of which lies to the south of Wotton Road and west of the railway line. The village has no nucleated centre with the main services strung out along the main road. There is a reasonably balanced population with more children than elderly. Constraints Main railway line physically divides Charfield – also noise

Infrastructure On bus route to Yate and Wotton-under-Edge (hourly), Thornbury and Bristol (2 hourly). No evening or Sunday service On railway line but railway station not operational Within a few minutes drive time of Junction 14 of M5 Primary school, several shops and pubs, including post office, village hall, 2 places of worship, mobile library, petrol station, playgroup Green Space – Playing field, tennis court, children’s equipped play area, some informal green space amongst development and 2 churchyards. Employment In 2001 – around 500 jobs in local area and 1,450 economically active. The number of jobs excludes those at Renishaw (in Stroud District). A significantly higher proportion of jobs than the South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or as own account workers, and significantly lower proportion are higher level managerial and professional occupations.

Largest employer in Charfield is MJ Fews. There are a number of small firms just outside Charfield at Charfield Mill. The major employer in the area is Renishaw plc, which is within 2km of Charfield. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Reasonable range of shops and services Primary school Easy access to M5 for commuting to work

Negative High car ownership (93% of households have at least 1 car and 63% have at least 2) and 74% travel to work by car South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

Limited bus service Limited smaller sized and lower priced housing Proximity of M5 Junction 14 promotes out-commuting

9. Cromhall Description and Context Cromhall lies on the B4058 about 7km north west of Yate and 5km east of Thornbury, within a few minutes travel time of Junction 14 of the M5.

Cromhall is a small settlement combining a limited amount of historic development around which residential development has taken place over the past 30 years. Much of the development has extended along the B4058 and a series of small single lane roads that lead to the farmland beyond, such that the settlement comprises 3 distinct areas – Bibstone, Townwell and Talbot’s End. Consequently, the village has no significant core area. Much of the settlement is of low density development and includes open areas as well as agricultural buildings.

Constraints The village is not constrained by any land use designation. Infrastructure On bus route between Wotton-under-Edge and Yate (approx hourly service Mon – Sat). Also early morning and early evening bus service to Bristol, and one daily journey to Gloucester. No evening or Sunday service. B4508 links Cromhall to Yate and Wotton-under-Edge. Few minutes drive time of Junction 14 of the M5 Primary school, shop and post office, pub, community hall, place of worship and mobile library Green Space – Provision limited to that at Primary School

Employment In 2001 – around 550 jobs in local area and 540 economically active. Range of occupations in area and unlike other settlements not dependent on small employers and own account workers.

The main employers in the local area are HMP Leyhill and Tortworth Court Four Pillars Hotel, both of which are within 2km of Cromhall. Sustainable Community Issues NB The profile for Cromhall includes 280 inmates at Leyhill Prison, thereby distorting the Census results for the parish and restricting definition of issues Positive Range of housing tenure (but this includes rental housing at Leyhill Prison for workers) Employment opportunities in locality – Leyhill Prison, Tortworth Court Hotel

Negative Limited range of services and facilities High car ownership (87% of households have at least 1 car and 60% have at least 2) Limited bus service Limited proportion of smaller/lower cost properties South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

10. Downend and Bromley Heath Description and Context Downend Parish is the most northerly part of the Bristol urban area east of the M32. The area is effectively bordered to the west by the River Frome and to the north by both the Avon Ring Road and M4 Motorway.

To the south and east, physical boundaries are less distinct and follow suburban roads.

The area grew as suburban post war development although there are some older buildings, generally in clusters, dating from earlier villages. Houses are mainly detached (21.6%) and semi-detached (49.6%) and there are a higher proportion of owner occupiers than the South Gloucestershire average. There are fewer people in this area are in the 10-45 age groups and more in the 65+ age groups than the South Gloucestershire averages.

The main shopping centre is at Downend around the strategic junction of Downend Road (A432), Badminton Road (A432) and Westerleigh Road. There are also neighbourhood shops at Cleeve Wood Road and Quakers Road. Constraints to development This area is already built up with opportunities for development limited to conversion and redevelopment of existing buildings. The area is bounded to the north by the A4174 Ring Road and the M4 to the north of which is within the Green Belt. Development opportunities Limited to redevelopment of existing sites and buildings including conversions. Infrastructure Bus route to central Bristol. Good access to the Ring Road and M4/M32 junction. Community facilities include Lincombe Barn, Downend Assembly Hall, places of worship and a number of pubs. Downend town centre has 30 units with an A1 use class. There is a large supermarket and a range of smaller shops serving day-to-day and “top up” needs. The centre faces a range of competition from larger centres but has continued to provide a range and choice of shopping and local services. There are important green spaces in the Frome and Leap valleys, Lincombe Valley, Britannia Wood and neighbouring allotments close to the centre of Downend. There are public (King George V) and school playing fields and a cemetery off Westerleigh Road. There is also an important green buffer between the built up area and Avon Ring Road Employment In 2001 there were around 2,550 jobs within the local area and 5,480 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 0.5. Good access to jobs in Emersons Green, and the North Fringe and by road or public transport to central Bristol South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

Sustainable Community Issues Positive Downend and Bromley Heath are well established and stable communities Good bus links to central Bristol and the North Fringe Traditional District Centre

Negative Some parts of the area are close to the Ring Road and M4 with potential problems with noise and air quality. Downend and Bromley Heath have lower levels of rented housing than the South Gloucestershire average.

13. Easter Compton Description and Context Easter Compton is situated to the north west of Bristol. The area to the north west and north of the village are within the Severn floodplain and all of the area is within the Green Belt. The village adjoins an area designated as the Coastal Zone, a policy designation which seeks to restrict development to that which requires a coastal location. The village is in close proximity to the North Fringe of the Bristol urban area. There is an older than average population structure. Constraints Coastal Zone designation acts as a barrier to development to the north and north west of Easter Compton “Washed over” by Green Belt Infrastructure Close proximity to the M5 (specifically Junction 17). The village has a place of worship, a post office, convenience store (bread and milk), public house and community hall and is on route C of the mobile library. A bus service runs every 140 mins from Monday-Saturday, and every 60mins on a Sunday. The village has a recreation ground, which has a children’s play area and skate/bmx area within it and a church yard. Employment The village has a residential population of around 635, of which around 330 are considered to be economically active. There are around 330 jobs in the area. The area has a higher proportion of people working for small employees and own account workers, and lower supervisory and technical occupations than the district average, and lower levels of people employed in higher managerial and professional occupations than the district average. Snows Commercials are a major employer in the area. Sustainable Community Issues Positive A greater than average proportion work from home Mobile library route C Good access to M5 Small range of facilities Range of housing tenure

Negative A greater than average proportion of the population use private modes of transport to get to work Floodplain Higher than average private vehicle ownership Good access to M5 No primary school Much higher than average detached property profile (and consequential lower than average other dwelling types) Lower than average rental properties Map of Easter Compton South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

14. Emersons Green and Mangotsfield Description and Context.

Emersons Green and Mangotsfield are at the far north east of the urban area of Bristol This area includes most of the suburban areas around Mangotsfield village and Rodway Common, together with the recent, current and future development areas of Emersons Green and Siston Hill.

The area is bounded by the A4174 Avon Ring Road and the A432 which provides access from the east side of the Bristol urban area, north to Yate/Chipping Sodbury and south into central Bristol.

Rodway Common, St James’s Church and the Green Belt area west of the Ring Road are significant features of the local landscape.

Emersons Green East is a major mixed use development site allocated in the South Gloucestershire Local Plan. It will include a 25ha science park, a further 20ha of employment land and in the region of 3,,000 dwellings with local facilities and a secondary school. Constraints to development Green Belt land abuts this area to the east. Rodway Common is a significant area of public open space which should be preserved. Development opportunities There are areas of open land adjoining the urban area to the east of Mangotsfield and west of the Avon Ring Road. Most of these are in the Green Belt or in recreational use. Within the built up areas opportunities are mainly confined to redevelopment and conversion of existing sites and buildings. Housing stock in Emersons Green is relatively new. Infrastructure Frequent bus routes into central Bristol The Avon Ring Road provides good access to this area but also tends to be a barrier for safe pedestrian and cycle movement and suffers from congestion at peak periods. Routes into central Bristol are lengthy and congested. Emersons Green has a recognisable and modern Town Centre with a large supermarket supported by 12 further retail units. There is a village centre with 22 retail units and two smaller shopping parades within Mangotsfield. There is an extensive area of informal public open space at Rodway Common. Cleeve Rugby Club and Mangotsfield United are significant sports grounds and their built facilities are available for public hire. Employment In 2001 there were around 3,210 jobs within the local area and 8,300 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 0.4. The allocated development at Emersons Green East will include a significant employment element including a Science Park. South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

The number of higher managerial and professional jobs in the area is lower than the average in the district and the number of own account and self employed jobs is slightly higher. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Well established community around Mangotsfield village. Developing community in Emersons Green Relatively good access to formal and informal open space including Rodway Common

Negative The number of jobs in relation to resident workforce is low, although the proposed Science Park at Emersons Green East will bring additional jobs to the area Access to jobs and services in central Bristol or the North Fringe is limited by distance and congestion.

15. Engine Common Description and Context Engine Common is a linear settlement which extends along North Road on the north west edge of Yate. It has an industrial past in coalmining and was the centre of the Yate coalfield in the 19th century. There is an aging population, with a lower proportion of young children than South Gloucestershire average and greater proportion of the 45+ age group. Constraints Sites of Nature Conservation Interest Area at risk of flooding to the east of North Road Potential extent of 16th to 18th century coalmining and contaminated land needs further investigation.

Infrastructure Bus service to Thornbury, Yate, Chipping Sodbury and Cribbs Causeway (frequency c90mins, no evening or Sunday service) Close to Yate Access to Bristol via B4059 Primary school, post office & village store, 3 pubs, place of worship, community hall and mobile library Green Space – football pitch and primary school grounds

Employment In 2001 – around 260 economically active and over 2800 jobs in local area. The various industrial areas and business parks on the western side of Yate are close to Engine Common. The nature of much of this employment is in technical and routine occupations rather than managerial, professional or supervisory occupations. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Primary school, but on constrained site. Close proximity to Yate/Chipping Sodbury for jobs and services

Negative Limited smaller size and lower cost housing No social housing High car ownership (91% of households have at least 1 car and 58% have at least 2) and 65% travel to work by car Limited bus service At the limit of acceptable walking distances from bus services to Bristol Limited range of shops and facilities Potential for historic coalmining and contaminated land South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

16. Falfield Description and Context Falfield is on the A38 around 4km north east of Thornbury. It consists of a nucleated village, centred on the church, with ribbon development along the A38, which divides the village. Dispersed individual dwellings and farm buildings provide a ‘rural edge’ to the settlement. To the south west of Falfield is Eastwood Park women’s prison. Junction 14 of the M5 is close by.

Constraints A38 divides the settlement Close to M5 and Junction 14 – traffic and noise Infrastructure On A38 and close to Junction 14 of the M5 On bus route to Wotton-under-Edge, Thornbury and Bristol (2 hourly). No evening or Sunday service. Limited bus service to Gloucester (3/4 per day except Sunday) Shop and post office, pub, community hall, place of worship and mobile library Green Space – Churchyard and Eastwood Park (small recreation space) Employment In 2001 – around 490 jobs in local area and 300 economically active. Range of occupations in area and unlike other settlements not dependent on small employers and own account workers.

The main employers in the local area are HMP Eastwood Park and the Bristol Inn Hotel. Sustainable Community Issues

Positive Travel to work by car lower than SG average, probably due to work in area (e.g. Eastwood Park prison) and working at/from home Easy access to major roads for commuting to work Employment opportunities in local area Access to bread and milk

Negative Limited bus service Limited services and facilities No primary school High car ownership (95% of households have at least 1 car and 61% have at least 2) Limited smaller size properties Proximity of A38 and M5 Junction 14 promote out-commuting South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

17. Filton Description and Context

Filton is bounded to the north and west by Filton Airfield and associated works and to the east by railway lines. To the south, physical boundaries are less distinct and merge with the suburbs of north east Bristol. The residential areas are on land rising to the A38 ridge.

Filton is an area of terraced and semi detached housing dating mainly from the 1930s -50s built around the important aerospace industries associated with Filton Airfield. Heavy traffic and congestion on the A38 and A4174 Ring Road result in some barriers to movement between the main residential areas.

The main service centre is at the junction of the A38 and A4174 Ring Road.

Parts of the area have relatively high levels of deprivation within South Gloucestershire and have been identified as one of the Priority Neighbourhoods for regeneration. There are relatively fewer people in the 25- 44 age groups and larger numbers in the over 65 age group in Filton compared with the South Gloucestershire average. Constraints to development The area is extensively developed. The need to safeguard the operation of Filton Airfield and health and safety issues associated with the operation of the airfield, which are a constraint to development around the flight paths in terms of location, height and type of development.

Development opportunities Northfield major site with planning permission for 2,200 dwellings and 66,000 m2 of employment floorspace. Other major allocated sites from South Gloucestershire Local Plan at Old Colstonians (72 dwellings) and fronting A38 (employment uses) to be developed over the next 5 years. Rolls Royce East works to be redeveloped for employment purposes. In the rest of the area opportunities are generally restricted to the redevelopment of brownfield sites and building conversions.

Infrastructure Good bus routes to central Bristol and the North Fringe with further improvements to bus corridors planned. Train station at Filton Abbey Wood. The service focus is generally along the A38 with the main Town Centre incorporating the church, pubs, the Shield Centre, Library and older shops. To the west is Elm Park, playing fields, the Swimming Pool and Police Station and beyond that the shopping parade at Gloucester Road North. There are local shopping parades on Filton Avenue which runs in parallel to the A38. South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

There are three secondary schools and primary schools accessible to residents of Filton. Filton High School has recently been rebuilt as Abbey Wood Community School .

Employment In 2001 there were around 14,970 jobs within the local area and 4,420 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 3.4. In the North Fringe as a whole, the ratio of jobs to resident workforce is approximately 2:1. The number of jobs in the higher managerial and professional category is significantly higher than the average for the district and the number in the small employers and own account workers and routine occupations is lower than the average. The main employment in the area is associated with the aerospace industries around Filton Airfield. There has been more recent, significant employment development around the MOD headquarters at Abbey Wood where there is also a station and retail park. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Good access to a range of employment opportunities Frequent bus routes to central Bristol and the North Fringe. Train station but only 0.9% of local residents use this for work journeys. A relatively large number of people travel to work on foot (13.7%) and by bus (10.1%) compared with the S Glos average of 7.3% and 6.5% respectively. A range of community facilities available including library, leisure centre and church. There is a greater proportion of rented housing available than the South Gloucestershire average (20.5%).

Negative Air quality and noise issues related to the Airfield and the major road network Traffic congestion along major routes. The area contains pockets of deprivation with associated health issues. South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

18. Frampton Cotterell and Coalpit Heath Description and Context Frampton Cotterell and Coalpit Heath form the northern and eastern parts of a horseshoe shaped area of development, partly enclosing the River Frome valley, about 2.5-3km between Yate and the outer edge of the Bristol urban area at Mangotsfield/Emersons Green. They lie along and between the A432 and B4058.

These settlements developed from 18th and 19th century Pennant sandstone hamlets to house workers in the local coal mines, hat making industry and agricultural economy. Victorian and 20th century brick houses and infill development led to the coalescence of the two settlements. There is an aging population, with a higher proportion of 45+ and lower proportion of under 45s than South Glos average. Constraints Surrounded by Green Belt Close to Bristol River Frome Valley

Infrastructure Hourly bus service during day (Yate, Bristol city centre, North and East Fringe, Cribbs Causeway). Limited evening and Sunday service. On Bus Partnership Route Access via A432 and B4058 to Yate and Bristol North Fringe In close proximity to Ring Road and motorway network Range of shops, post office, pubs, primary schools, community hall, places of worship, mobile library, GP and dental practices, petrol station, playgroup/nursery and youth club Green Space – Includes various equipped play areas, village greens, playing fields, informal open space, woodland and school grounds

Employment In 2001 – around 1,250 jobs in local area and 4,110 economically active. Significantly higher proportion of jobs than South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or as own account workers, and significantly lower proportion are higher level managerial and professional occupations.

Main employer within settlement is Rentokil Property Care. Sustainable Community Issues

Positive Range of goods and services Reasonable bus service and various routes 4 primary schools Range of house types and tenures, although low proportion of private rental property Near to employment opportunities in North Fringe but difficult to South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

access by public transport Good access to countryside Negative High car ownership (92% of households have at least 1 car and 53% have at least 2) and 72% travel to work by car Close to Ring Road and North Fringe – adds to traffic congestion in this area and out-commuting from settlements Access to green space varies due to size of community and distance from the space

19. Frenchay Description and Context Frenchay is located to the far north of the urban area of Bristol east of the M32. It is bordered to the east by the River Frome and the south by the Bristol City administrative boundary. To the north and west it is bordered by the M4 and M32 motorways although there are areas of green space between the built up area and the motorways which provide an important green setting to the settlement.

Frenchay developed as a free standing village around the River Frome, church and common. Over time the historic core has become surrounded by suburban development, the war-time hospital development, the M4 and M32 motorways and the A4174 Avon Ring Road. Despite these major changes in the wider setting, the village retains much of its original character and green setting with areas of open fields to the west and north, as well as the Frome valley.

The M32 corridor has traditionally been an area of market gardening serving Bristol although that role has diminished in recent years. Constraints to development Land between the M32 and Frenchay and to the north at Hambrook is within the Green Belt. Grade 1 agricultural land between the M32 and Frenchay Frenchay Conservation area Landscape setting Potential flooding issues associated with the River Frome Limited opportunities for new development (with the potential exception of Frenchay Hospital site) due to setting.

Development opportunities The possible downgrading of Frenchay Hospital could release a significant area of land for redevelopment. Infrastructure Poor bus links Neighbourhood shopping facilities are limited. There is a village hall, church and pubs within Frenchay village. There are three secondary schools and one primary school accessible to the community

Employment Frenchay Hospital is currently a significant employer. The site may be subject to redevelopment in the future. In 2001 there were around 3,450 jobs within the local area and 850 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 4. This is largely due to the numbers employed at Frenchay Hospital. There are plans to redevelop the hospital and the long term levels of employment on the site are currently unknown. There are significantly more jobs in the lower managerial and professional category than the District average. South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

Sustainable Community Issues Positive High quality landscape and built environment. Scope for re-investment in the Frenchay Hospital site.

Negative Limited bus service into central Bristol so limited access to jobs and facilities by public transport. Limited range of facilities and services within the area.

23. Hanham Description and Context

Hanham is located to the east of the urban area of Bristol. It is bounded to the south by the river Avon and its corridor including Conham River Park and neighbouring Hencliff Wood. The A431 Bristol/Bath road runs through the area.

Conham Vale and Magpie bottom form part of a green corridor which generally separates Hanham from Bristol suburbs to the west.

The eastern boundary of the area is effectively marked by the Ring Road although there is also a prominent area of Green Belt here which contains the built-up area. There are important views to and from the Hanham Hills which lie in the neighbouring Longwell Green Area.

The boundary to the north is less distinct merging with older Kingswood suburbs. Despite this, Hanham does have a separate and strong local identity. Although there were earlier historic settlements, housing is predominantly interwar and post war of suburban character.

Hanham Town Centre straddles a significant radial route from Bristol along the A431 and although offering a good range of local shops, it does experience significant traffic impact.

The former Hanham Hall Hospital is currently being redeveloped as a pioneering low carbon community. There are fewer people in the 24-44 age groups and more in the over 65 age groups than the South Gloucestershire average. Constraints to development Green Belt land adjoins the area Need to protect the landscape and biodiversity assets including key green spaces and strategic views to the Hanham Hills and Avon Valley. Traffic congestion along existing roads with limited scope for physical improvement Conservation Area at Hanham Abbots.

Development opportunities The urban fringe includes green field areas which have a variety of uses including informal and formal open space. Most are in the Green Belt. Within the urban area opportunities are mostly confined to redevelopment of former factory sites and property conversions.

The former Kleeneze factory south of the Town Centre is currently vacant and offers some opportunity for redevelopment. Infrastructure Frequent bus routes to Kingswood and Emersons Green and central Bristol South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

Hanham is a smaller, traditional town centre with a total of 42 shops (units with an A1 use class). Hanham has a library, folk centre and number of churches. Hanham High School is within the area and provides secondary education. Good access to significant areas of informal open space in the Avon Valley and at Magpie Bottom and access to the Hanham Hills, Hanham Common and Gover Road Community Forest area

Employment In 2001 there were around 2,310 jobs within the local area and 4,570 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 0.5. In the East Fringe as a whole, a large proportion of the working population lives and works within the area. The remainder of workers are most likely to travel into Bristol City. 18,000 people travel from the East Fringe into Bristol but only 5,000 in the opposite direction. Access to the major centres of employment from this area is limited by the distances to central Bristol and the North Fringe along heavily congested routes although there is a good bus service to Emersons Green and central Bristol. Former Kleeneze factories off Martins Road are safeguarded for employment use.

Sustainable Community Issues Positive Range of shops on traditional High Street Access to significant areas of open space and biodiversity at Hanham Hills, Conham River Park and Magpie Bottom. Access to retail facilities at Longwell Green retail park.

Negative Employment opportunities in the area are limited with significant out commuting to central Bristol. Poor transport links along congested roads to employment and other facilities in Central Bristol and the North Fringe.

24. Hawkesbury Upton Description and Context Hawkesbury Upton lies close to the A46 Bath – Stroud Road, with easy access to M4, in the north east corner of South Gloucestershire.

Hawkesbury Upton is characterised by a mix of 17th and 18th century buildings and comprises the High Street, the adjoining area by Back and Park Streets and around the pool to the west. Although part was originally planned as a market town in the 13th century, today it is no more than a large village with much modern development on the edges. It lies in an exposed position on the south west edge of the Cotswold scarp. There are a lower proportion of young adults than South Gloucestershire average. Constraints Cotswolds AONB Conservation Area

Infrastructure Limited bus service (2 hourly during week, 3 times on Sat, no evening or Sunday service) which runs between Wotton under Edge, Yate and Kingswood. Close to A46 and access to M4 Junction 18 Primary school, 2 shops, 2 pubs, community hall, places of worship, GP surgery, mobile library, playgroup/nursery and youth club Green Space – A recreation ground with football pitch, equipped children’s play area, cricket ground, tennis courts, allotments, churchyard and facilities associated with the primary school. Employment In 2001 – around 260 jobs in local area and 625 economically active. A significantly higher proportion of jobs than South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or as own account workers, with consequent lower proportions across the range of other job types. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Mid range population level in Hawkesbury Upton Range of shops and services Primary school Range of community facilities Range of housing stock and tenure Easy access to A46 and M4 for commuting to work

Negative High car ownership (92% of households have at least 1 car and 61% have at least 2) and 71% travel to work by car Limited bus service Proximity of A46 and M4 Junction 18 promotes out-commuting Limited job opportunities in local area South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

25. Horton Description and Context Horton lies to the west of the A46 about 4 km north east of Yate/Chipping Sodbury. It is a linear settlement which straddles the road on the scarp slope which marks the edge of the Cotswolds. There is a mix of house style, design and building materials and several farms. There is an aging population in the village, with higher proportion of 45+ and lower proportion of under 45 than South Glos average. Constraints Cotswolds AONB (part of village within)

Infrastructure

Limited bus service (2 hourly during week, 3 times on Sat, no evening or Sunday service) Close to A46 and Junction 18 of M4 Primary school, community hall and mobile library. No food retail outlet. Green Space – the village has a recreation ground with pavilion

Employment In 2001 – around 170 jobs in local area and 170 economically active. Over half the jobs are in higher managerial and professional occupations and small employers or own account workers. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Primary school Easy access to A46 and M4 for commuting to work

Negative Low population level in village Very limited facilities – no access to basic food provisions Very high car ownership (97% of households have at least one car and 67% have at least two) Limited bus service Two thirds of the housing stock is detached dwellings and therefore at the higher end of the housing market. Proximity of A46 and M4 Junction 18 promotes out-commuting South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

26. Iron Acton Description and Context The village of Iron Acton lies approximately 3km north west of Yate and Chipping Sodbury at the junction of the B4058 and B4059 roads. Its name is derived from its industrial past. It is as an example of ancient ribbon development and has a very regular plan which displays a probable planned origin from the middle ages. The population balance is consistent with South Glos average. Constraints “Washed over” by Green Belt Conservation Area

Infrastructure Bus service to Bristol and Yate (frequency hourly during day and 2 hourly evenings and Sundays) Close to Yate/Chipping Sodbury Access to Bristol and Yate/Chipping Sodbury via B4058/9 Primary school, 2 pubs, place of worship, community hall and mobile library Green Space – 2 areas of allotments, playing fields, tennis court, football pitch, small equipped play area, church yard, school playing field and general amenity space.

Employment In 2001 – around 190 jobs in local area and 330 economically active.

Significantly higher proportion of these jobs than South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or as own account workers, and lower proportion are higher level managerial and professional occupations. Also an above average proportion of jobs are routine occupations. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Primary school Range of housing stock Range of housing tenure Good bus service

Negative High car ownership (92% of households have at least 1 car and 53% have at least 2) and 66% travel to work by car Limited range of shops and facilities – no access to bread and milk Dependant on Yate for jobs and services South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

27. Kingswood Description and Context - Kingswood is located to the east of the urban area of Bristol. It comprises two wards: Kings Chase, north of the A42, and Woodstock to the south. The A420 Bristol/Chippenham radial route passes through the centre of Kingswood.

Originally part of the Kingswood Forest, the area prospered on the strength of coal mining and allied manufacturing industries. Housing is predominantly 19th Century terraces and 20th Century suburban houses. More recently there has been a growth in flatted accommodation in and around the town centre. There is no obvious distinction between the administrative area of Bristol City and South Gloucestershire in this immediate area.

Historically there have been large employment areas intermixed with housing but there has been a recent decline in local employment as businesses contract and/ or relocate.

The town centre is located along the A420 which has been subject to a successful traffic management scheme to reduce the impact of through traffic.

Parts of Kingswood have relatively high levels of deprivation within South Gloucestershire and have been identified as Priority Neighbourhoods for regeneration. The population has more elderly people than the South Gloucestershire average.

Constraints to development

Opportunities for significant improvements to existing road infrastructure are very limited. There is a conservation area around the historic Whitfield Tabernacle on Kingswood High Street. The area has limited green space and this needs to be preserved and enhanced to ensure health, wellbeing and biodiversity are protected

Development Opportunities The area is heavily built up and so opportunities for further development is limited to infill and replacement of existing, mainly employment, uses.

Infrastructure Good bus links to central Bristol. Congestion along radial routes from central Bristol and routes to the employment centres in the North Fringe Kingswood High Street is a major local shopping and service centre with 93 shops (units of an A1 use class). The Centre was perceived as being congested and in decline but recent investment in traffic management has helped to prompt some new investment in retail and other town centre facilities, although competition from out of centre South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

stores has affected overall vitality and viability. Kingswood has a library, council one-stop-shop, leisure centre with swimming pool immediately to the north of the area and a range of community meeting places.

Employment In 2001 there were around 8,310 jobs within the local area and 12,330 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 0.7.

In the East Fringe as a whole, a large proportion of people live and work within the area. The remainder of workers are most likely to travel into Bristol City. 18,000 people travel from the East Fringe into Bristol but only 5,000 travel in the opposite direction.

7% of jobs within Kingswood are higher managerial and professional occupations which is lower than the South Gloucestershire average of 17%.

Further analysis is required to determine whether the loss of small employment sites to residential uses is cumulatively significant in terms of numbers of jobs lost and employment land supply.

Sustainable Community Issues Positive Good bus links to central Bristol Potential to provide housing, employment and other facilities in an area which has been identified as a Priority Neighbourhood for regeneration due to its relatively high levels of deprivation. Kingswood is an established community with a strong town centre and a good range of services and facilities. People in Kingswood are more likely to get to work by foot or bus than the South Gloucestershire average although 60% use cars.

Negative Air quality problems associated with major roads. Access to good quality formal and informal open space is limited. Potential to maximise use of existing infrastructure although these could become over stretched, in particular the road system. The area has been identified as a Priority Neighbourhood for regeneration by the Council due to its relatively high level of deprivation with associated health issues (such as lower life expectancy) High level of out commuting due to the imbalance between jobs and resident population. Potential problems with loss of existing, small scale employment in an area with an existing shortfall of jobs in relation to the resident population. South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

28. Marshfield Description and Context. Marshfield is situated on the A420 to the east of Bristol, and has a population of around 1,600. This village is one of the largest considered, and this is reflected in the relatively large number of services and facilities present in the settlement, including a GP Surgery and Youth Club. It is unclear which larger urban area has the biggest ‘pull factor’ for residents (Chippenham/Bath/East Fringe of Bristol). Constraints The settlement is within the Marshfield Conservation Area, the Cotswolds AONB and is bordered on all sides bar the north by Green Belt. Infrastructure The A420 provides access into Bristol and Chippenham, and Bath and the M4 via the A46. The village is served by a day time 2 hourly bus service which operates Monday – Saturday. As is shown below, the settlement benefits from a range of services and facilities. Green Space - the village has 2 children’s equipped play areas, an equipped area for older children/teenagers, a playing field with football pitches and an artificial cricket wicket, a common, allotments, a church yard and a cemetery Employment There are around 640 jobs in the immediate area and around 820 economically active people. The ‘employment type’ mix matches the South Gloucestershire norm in some respects (such as higher and lower managerial and professional occupations), but is below average for intermediate and semi routine occupations, and above average for small employers and own account workers, and routine occupations.

MJ Church Plant Ltd is a large employer in the village. Sustainable Community Issues Positive The village contains: o A place of worship o Post Office o Small range of shops (access to bread and milk) o Petrol station o GP Surgery o Community hall o Playgroup/nursery o Youth Club Marshfield has a primary school A higher than average proportion of the population work from home. Mobile library route D Relatively well served by green spaces Reasonable mixture of housing types Reasonable mix of housing tenure South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

29. Old Sodbury Description and Context Old Sodbury lies about 3km east of Chipping Sodbury on the scarp slope which marks the western edge of the Cotswolds. The A432 divides the village and provides easy access via the A46 to Junction 18 of the M4. There is an aging population, with a marked increase in proportion of 45 - 65 adults than South Gloucestershire average with lower than average in other age groups. Constraints AONB Southern part of village in Green Belt A432 Infrastructure 3/4 buses per day between Yate/Chipping Sodbury and Malmesbury. No evening or Sunday service Few minutes drive time of Yate/Chipping Sodbury and J18 of M4 Primary school, post office/shop, pub, community hall, place of worship, mobile library, playgroup/nursery Green Space – play area, football pitch and allotments

Employment In 2001 – around 310 jobs in local area and 350 economically active.

Significantly higher proportion of jobs than South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or own account workers, and significantly lower proportion are managerial or professional occupations.

Sustainable Community Issues Positive Close to Yate/Chipping Sodbury for jobs, services and facilities Easy access to A46 and M4 for commuting to work Range of housing tenure

Negative High car ownership (95% of households have at least 1 car and 60% have at least 2). 63% travel to work by car and another 20% work at/from home Limited bus service Very limited range of services and facilities Half the housing stock is detached dwellings and therefore at the higher end of housing prices. Proximity of A46 and M4 Junction 18 promotes out-commuting South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

30. Oldbury on Severn Description and Context Oldbury is in a relatively isolated location to the north west of Thornbury, close to the Severn Estuary. It is a linear settlement consisting largely of individual properties set back from the road. The pattern of drainage ditches also influences the layout of the settlement. The settlement has a low density with gardens, orchards and fields occurring between properties. These gaps allow views out from the village to the wider countryside and this contributes to the village’s strong rural character. There is an aging population, with a higher proportion of 45+ and lower proportion of under 45s than South Glos average (except in 10-15 year age group). Constraints Most of the village within Coastal Zone and about half the village within Flood Risk Zone 3 Oldbury Naite Rhine is one of the main outflows to River Severn and becomes tide locked at high tide The Toot Scheduled Ancient Monument Part “washed over” by Green Belt at southern end of village Infrastructure Very limited bus service (service twice a week to Thornbury) Minor road network around Oldbury Primary school, 2 pubs, community hall, place of worship, mobile library, playgroup/nursery Green Space – general sports pitches with pavilion, field at primary school, amenity space, equipped children’s play area, churchyard. Employment In 2001 – around 640 jobs in local area and 370 economically active. Range of occupations in the area - mainly at Oldbury Power Station, which is one of the larger employers in South Gloucestershire. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Primary school Job opportunities in local area, principally at Oldbury Power Station

Negative Limited facilities – no access to basic food provisions High car ownership (94% of households have at least 1 car and 63% have at least 2) High proportion of detached properties and consequent limited proportion of smaller size properties Limited social rented housing Poor bus service Minor road network restricts access to work Power Station identified for closure in the next 18months.

31. Olveston and Tockington Description and Context Olveston and Tockington lie to west/south-west of Thornbury and Alveston, about 1km apart (centre to centre).

Olveston - the historical village core is predominantly linear in character, but a significant amount of new residential development in the 1970s and 1980s has made the village more compact in shape.

Tockington - The village is largely characterised by properties clustered around the village green and the roads that radiate off this with a scattering of individual properties and farmhouses, set further apart, along the village approaches. At present the village form is relatively compact.

There is an aging population in these settlements, with a higher proportion of 45+ and lower proportion of under 45s than South Glos average (except in 10- 15 year age group) Constraints Olveston Conservation Area Tockington Conservation Area “Washed over” by Green Belt Infrastructure Bus service to Thornbury, Yate, Chipping Sodbury and Cribbs Causeway (frequency c90mins, no evening or Sunday service) Within few minutes drive time of A38 and motorway network (Junction 16 M5 and Junction 1 M48) Primary school, range of shops, place of worship, GP surgery, community hall, mobile library and playgroup/nursery in Olveston Pub, community hall and chapel in Tockington Green Infrastructure – Olveston has a churchyard, allotments, amenity space with equipped children’s play area and the playing fields of the primary school. Sports pitches close to village in Old Down and some facilities available for public use at Tockington Manor School Employment In 2001 - around 625 jobs in local area and 1,000 economically active.

A significantly higher proportion of jobs than South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or are own account workers, with consequent lower proportions across the range of other job types.

Main employer in villages is Tockington Manor School.

32. Patchway Description and Context

Patchway is an area of predominantly post war housing to the north of Filton Airfield and mainly to the west of the A38. There is a local shopping centre near the junction with the A38.

Patchway will see significant change over the next decade with the building of the new housing and employment at Filton Northfield and its associated road infrastructure. The regional shopping centre and retail parks at The Mall are adjacent to the area to the north.

Parts of the area have relatively high levels of deprivation within South Gloucestershire and have been identified as Priority Neighbourhoods for regeneration.

Constraints to development

The area is constrained by the road and rail networks within and adjoining the area.

Development opportunities Limited opportunities for redevelopment but some brownfield sites and infill opportunities.

Infrastructure

Traffic congestion associated with access to the M4/M5 and the Mall at Cribbs Causeway. There are several local shopping parades within Patchway parish. The area is adjacent to the major regional shopping centre at Cribbs Causeway. There are secondary schools and primary schools accessible to residents of the area.

Employment In 2001 there were around 11,720 jobs within the local area and 5,080 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 3. Within the North Fringe as a whole, the ratio of jobs to resident workforce is approximately 2:1. The area has a relatively high proportion of higher managerial and professional jobs than the South Gloucestershire average. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Good access to comparison retail opportunities and employment at Cribbs Causeway and elsewhere within the North Fringe. Good bus links along A38 and A4018 Compared with South Gloucestershire as a whole, a relatively high proportion of people travel to work on foot (12.3%) and lower South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

proportion travel by car (59.7).

Negative Noise issues arising from operations at Filton Airfield Air quality issues from main road network and Filton Airfield Traffic congestion associated with the Mall and M4/M5 junctions. Contains areas of relative deprivation with associated health issues. Local shopping facilities are currently limited although there are proposals to develop a local centre as part of the Northfield development As part of the North Fringe this area has an imbalance between jobs and residents of about 2:1

35. Rangeworthy Description and Context Rangeworthy is situated approximately 2.5km from the north western edge of Yate, on the B4058. It originated as a linear settlement, principally along this road, with a few houses dispersed along New Road (Wickwar Road) and Patch Lane. Recent infill development along the main road has maintained the linear character of the settlement. However, more recent development along New Road, in the form of small closes, has started to erode the original form of the village. It is, however, still very much a small village, set within a rural landscape. The northern boundary of the Bristol/Bath Green Belt lies immediately south of the village, along Patch Lane. There is an aging population, with a higher proportion of 45+ and lower proportion of under 45s than South Glos average (except in 10-15 year age group).

36. Severn Beach Description and Context. The settlement of Severn Beach has a population of around 2,000, and is situated immediately south of the M4, at the point at which it crosses the River Severn (the second Severn Crossing). The settlement is within the ‘coastal zone’ as designated by the Local Plan. Constraints Coastal Zone/flood plain designation recognises the sensitivity of this area to future development. Infrastructure The M49 (at Aust) and M5 (at J17) provide Severn Beach with reasonable road access, linking into both the local and national road networks. The village has a train station (Severn Beach), with services operating between Severn Beach and Bristol Temple Mead between 6am and 10pm Monday-Friday, 7:20am to 10:45pm on a Saturday, with no services available on Sundays. One bus service operates between Severn Beach and Bristol City Centre Monday and Saturday daytimes, there is a 2hr service between Severn Beach and UWE (via the Mall) and a 2 hourly service on Sundays between 10am and 5pm. There are no evening services. A higher than average proportion of the population uses the road network to access work by private vehicle. The village has: o Primary school o Retail outlets (access to bread and milk) o Post Office with library o Community hall o Place of worshipx2 Green Space - Severn Beach has a playing field with marked out football pitch and children’s equipped playing area, and a separate rugby pitch and club house. There is also more informal open space provision along the estuary front. Employment Around 1,200 residents of the village are considered to be economically active, and there are around 1,600 jobs in the area (there are likely to be more jobs than this now as the Western Approaches Business Park has further developed since the 2001 census). The area has a higher proportion of people working in lower supervisory and technical occupations, and routine occupations than the district average, and lower levels of people employed in intermediate occupations and small employer and own account workers occupations. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Severn Beach has a train station Library route C Primary school Retail outlet (access to bread and milk) Playing field and other football pitch South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

37. Staple Hill Description and Context Staple Hill is located to the north east of the urban area of Bristol between Emersons Green/Mangotsfield and Kingswood. This portrait is based on the ward of Staple Hill which does not have particularly well defined physical boundaries but which forms part of the wider suburban area. The main settlement grew along a main radial route out of central Bristol and Fishponds (B4465).

Staple Hill developed around the mining industry and is predominantly 19th and early to mid 20th century terraced housing. The old Midland railway line runs through the area and is now an important strategic open space and linear path linking the urban area with the open countryside. There is no obvious distinction between the administrative area of Bristol City and South Gloucestershire in this immediate area.

The main retail centre is along Staple Hill High Street.

Parts of Staple Hill have relatively high levels of deprivation within South Gloucestershire and have been identified as Priority Neighbourhoods for regeneration. The number of residents in the 65 plus age group is larger than the South Gloucestershire average with correspondingly smaller proportions in all other age groups. Constraints to development Redevelopment of any vacant employment sites for housing could tend to push future job opportunities to Longwell Green and Emersons Green. Redevelopment opportunities within the retail area are limited.

Opportunities for development Staple Hill is intensively built up and so development opportunities are restricted to redevelopment of a limited number of brownfield sites and conversions.

Infrastructure Good bus links to central Bristol. The main retail centre based along the High Street and Broad Street is generally buoyant and has a good mix of retailers although there are concerns for its future vitality given competition from larger supermarkets in Fishponds and Emersons Green. The centre lacks the range of multiples found in other South Gloucestershire centres but has a wide range of independent traders. There are 85 shops (units with an A1 use class) in the centre. Staple Hill has a library and range of churches and community meeting places. Kingswood Leisure Centre is located at the southern edge of the area. The area is generally deficient in open space although Page Park is a key asset as a formal ‘Victorian Park’ and is very well used South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

Employment In 2001 there were around 3,090 jobs within the local area and 3,040 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 1. The proportion of managerial and higher professional jobs in the area is lower than the South Gloucestershire average (8%) and there are proportionately more small employers and own account workers (12%) Sustainable Community Issues Positive Good range of shops within a traditional High Street Staple Hill has around twice the South Gloucestershire average of rented housing (28%) Negative Areas of deprivation with associated health issues. Limited access to good quality formal and informal open space

38. Stoke Gifford, Little Stoke, Harry Stoke and Stoke Park Description and Context Stoke Gifford parish is located in the north of the urban area of Bristol, to the west of the M32 and south of the M4 motorways and to the east of the Bristol to Cardiff railway line. The parish contains several distinct areas of housing as well as major employment areas.

Stoke Gifford, in the middle of the parish, is an area of pre-war and post-war housing to the north and south of the railway line around Parkway Station comprising the original village of Stoke Gifford built around the church, school and village green. Considerable new housing has been built since 1970 to the north, west and east of the village. Little Stoke lies between Stoke Gifford and the A38.

Stoke Park, to the south of the parish, was developed in the late 1990s on the site of an old hospital. The site adjoins the Stoke Park estate which consists of the historically important Dower House and landscaped park. It contains a mixture of housing types including apartments, terraced, semidetached and detached. There are no facilities on site and residents rely on schools and shops in Stapleton, Stoke Gifford and Filton. The site adjoins the Bristol urban area at Lockleaze but there is no road link between the two areas.

There are major areas of employment including the MOD, UWE, Hewlett Packard and Axa Sunlife.

This area is adjacent to the allocated Harry Stoke and Hewlett Packard mixed use development sites. The proportion of people in the 65 plus age group is lower than the national average and there are proportionately more younger people. Constraints to development Area to the east is within the Green Belt. Need to preserve the setting of the Stoke Park Registered Historic Park and listed Dower House to the South.

Development opportunities The existing South Gloucestershire Local Plan recognised this as area of growth but sought to provide a better balance between housing and employment. Key allocated development sites include: Hewlett Packard – site partly within the Bristol administrative area identified for a total of 1,200 houses and employment uses. UWE – “surplus land” east of Coldharbour Lane allocated for 500 dwellings. Harry Stoke – site identified for 1,200 dwellings Rolls Royce – site south of Gypsy Patch Lane identified for safeguarded employment uses and proposals for redevelopment currently under consideration (include employment uses and a hotel). Railway Triangle – some vacant land but with significant access and environmental constraints. Parkway Station area – some vacant land - future to be resolved. South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

Given the scale of growth proposed for this area there is a need to consider scope for the creation of one or more town/service centres. Infrastructure Bus links to central Bristol are currently good and there are proposals to improve services to other areas with UWE acting as a hub. There are three railway stations serving the area at Patchway, Abbey Wood and Bristol Parkway. There is no defined town centre in this area. There is a retail park with large supermarket and DIY stores on Fox Den Road. There are also small parades within the older parts of the urban area. Stoke Park lacks local retail facilities. The Abby Wood retail park is located just to the east of the parish boundary. The newly completed Abbey Wood Community School lies within the Stoke Gifford area.

Employment In 2001 there were around 16,860 jobs within the local area and 6,140 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 3.7. In the North Fringe as a whole the ratio of jobs to resident workforce is approximately 2:1. There are a high proportion of jobs of a higher and lower managerial and professional level in this area compared with the South Gloucestershire average. Due to the high numbers of jobs within this area and proximity to the motorway network there is a significant amount of in-commuting from within Bristol and elsewhere. This area contains a number of large employers including UWE, the MOD and Axa Sunlife.

Sustainable Community Issues Positive Access to a good range and number of employment opportunities in the North Fringe of Bristol.

Negative Poor links to existing and proposed centres especially by foot or cycle. Lack of accessible, good quality, local retail facilities both for residents and employees. Congestion arising from proximity to the motorway network, in- commuting and through traffic. Existing communities in this area are dispersed and separated by major roads. The newer communities at Stoke Park and Parkway North are still becoming established. Parkway station’s success causes local parking problems South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

39. Thornbury Description and Context Thornbury is located approximately 14 miles north of central Bristol and 6 miles north of the urban edge at Bradley Stoke.

Thornbury originated as a medieval market town and has an historic core on its western side centred around the High Street, Castle Street and Thornbury Castle and church. The town was subject to extensive housing estate development during the 1960s, 70s and 80s and this is bounded on its eastern and southern sides by a relief road. An employment area has been developed at the southern end of the town which forms a clear physical edge to the town.

Development within Thornbury has been limited in recent years and there is little scope for any further infill development or redevelopment.

Thornbury’s proximity and accessibility to Bristol and beyond has made it a popular place to live but this has also resulted in it becoming a dormitory settlement. However, It does also have a role as a market town/service centre for the surrounding villages and rural area.

There are more people in the 45-64 age range than the South Gloucestershire average. Constraints to development

The Bristol/Bath Green Belt boundary adjoins the town to the south. The landscape setting – Thornbury is prominent in views from the West. Extensive conservation area around the historic core. Potential flooding issues to the west of the town towards the Severn Levels

Development opportunities Opportunities within the development boundary of the town are limited to a few redevelopment sites around the town centre and at Thornbury hospital. Infrastructure

Public transport to Bristol is limited and cannot be significantly improved due to distance and restrictions at M5 Junction 16. Thornbury town centre maintains the character of a market town. It has a good range of mainly small, independent shops as well as a supermarket. To the south of the town there is an edge of centre food superstore. In total there are 75 shops (retail units with an A1 use class). Thornbury has a library, a leisure centre with swimming pool, a Council One Stop Shop, a small museum and a range of community meeting places. There are two secondary schools accessible to residents of Thornbury. South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

Employment In 2001 there were around 5,380 jobs within the local area and 5,960 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 0.9. However, while around 2500 people live and work in Thornbury the rest commute to Bristol, the North Fringe and elsewhere, with corresponding numbers commuting into Thornbury. Employment opportunities are at the Midland Way Business Park and within the service sector in the town centre including the South Gloucestershire Council offices on Castle Street. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Thornbury has a good level of existing services and facilities and quality of life and performs a role as a market town for surrounding villages. The town has an historic core with an extensive conservation area. The surrounding landscape setting is an environmental asset. A relatively high proportion walk to work (11.2%).

Negative High levels of commuting both in and out of Thornbury mainly by private car. Some primary school rolls are falling.

40. Tormarton Description and Context Tormarton lies about 6km south east of Yate/Chipping Sodbury, close to the A46 and Junction 18 of the M4.

Tormarton contains a variety of buildings, many built of Cotswold stone with dressed stone detailing to windows and doors. Later infilling has been confined to the central core of the village, such that it retains a compact nucleus. The stone walls lining the roads and defining property boundaries are a particular feature. There is an aging population, with a marked increase in proportion of 45 - 65 adults than South Gloucestershire average with lower than average in other age groups Constraints Cotswolds AONB Conservation Area Infrastructure 3/4 buses per day between Yate and Malmesbury. 1 trip on weekdays to Kingswood. No evening or Sunday service Close proximity to A46 and M4 Junction 18 Pub, community hall, place of worship and mobile library, Green Space – football and cricket pitches, church yard, equipped children’s play area and village pond Employment In 2001 – around 200 jobs in local area and 200 economically active.

In the local area a significantly higher proportion of jobs than South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or as own account workers, and a lower proportion are higher level managerial and professional occupations. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Easy access to A46 and M4 for commuting to/travelling for work Range of housing tenure

Negative High car ownership (96% of households have at least 1 car and 64% have at least 2). Only 57% travel to work by car but another 29% work at/from home Proximity of A46 and M4 Junction 18 promotes out-commuting Limited bus service Very limited range of services and facilities – no access to food shops Limited small sized/lower cost housing South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

41. Tytherington Description and Context Tytherington lies about 2km south-east of Thornbury, on the lower slope of a limestone escarpment along which the M5 runs. There are a number of disused limestone quarries within and around Tytherington and a large active quarry operation immediately to the north-west of the M5 and village.

The centre of the settlement lies at the junction of five roads, and development extends out along these roads becoming more dispersed. Stone cottages and houses originally set out in individual plots are now interspersed with more recent development.

There is a reasonably balanced population structure, with a lower proportion of younger age adults (16-44) and slightly higher of middle age adults (45-64 than South Glos average but also higher proportion of under 10s. Constraints Conservation area Part of village “washed over” by the Green Belt Proximity to M5 – noise Mineral railway line runs through village – noise and vibration

Infrastructure On bus route between Thornbury and Yate/Chipping Sodbury (approx hourly service Mon – Sat). Also one daily journey to Gloucester. No evening or Sunday service. Close to A38 Village store & post office, pub, community hall, place of worship, mobile library, playgroup/nursery Green Infrastructure – Hardwicke Playing Field has a formal sports pitch and pavilion. There is an equipped children’s play area, amenity space and a church yard Employment In 2001 – around 160 jobs in local area and 325 economically active. In the local area a significantly higher proportion of jobs than the South Gloucestershire average are with small employers or as own account workers, and significantly lower proportion are higher level managerial and professional occupations.

The main employers in the local area are Hanson Aggregates at Tytherington Quarry. A wider range of jobs are available in Thornbury which is just over 2km to the west. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Range of housing tenure Easy access to A38 for commuting to work Close proximity and access to wider range of services and facilities in Thornbury.

42. Warmley and Longwell Green Description and Context This area is located at the eastern edge of the Bristol urban area. It includes the built up areas and urban fringe to the east of the Avon Ring Road including; Warmley, Cadbury Heath, North Common, Oldland Common, Willsbridge, Longwell Green and parts of Hanham Abbots.

This is a large group of communities which, while having earlier foundations, have generally developed in the post war period to provide a single large suburban area.

There are important green corridors running through the area including those around the Warmley conservation area, the Dramway and old railway path. Bitton Steam Railway at Willsbridge/Cherry Gardens is a distinctive feature of the area.

Parts of the area have relatively high levels of deprivation within South Gloucestershire and have been identified as Priority Neighbourhoods for regeneration.

Constraints to development This is an intensely developed area with limited opportunities for redevelopment. There is a conservation area around the Scheduled Ancient Monument at Warmley. The area is surrounded by Green Belt on three sides.

Development oOpportunities Development and redevelopment opportunities are limited by a scarcity of undeveloped sites. Infrastructure The area is well connected by bus with Kingswood and central Bristol. There is no single recognisable town centre although Longwell Green has developed as an out of centre retail park which, with the nearby Asda supermarket, serves this and a wider catchment area. There are local parades of shops throughout the area. The Aspects leisure centre complex (including cinema, restaurants and ten pin bowling) is located to the west of the Ring Road. Facilities here have recently been enhanced by the addition of a swimming pool, sports hall and gym. Grimsbury Farm offers city farm type experiences and Warmley Gardens, the Dramway and Bitton Railway are of historic interest.

Employment In 2001 there were around 7,330 jobs within the local area and 13,650 economically active residents. The number of jobs per resident worker is therefore around 0.5. There are business/employment opportunities at the business and retail parks at Longwell Green and on Tower Road North. In the East Fringe as a whole, a large proportion of the population lives and works within the area. However, due to the imbalance between South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

jobs and resident workers there is also a high level of out-commuting. These workers are most likely to travel into Bristol City. 18,000 people travel to work from the East Fringe into Bristol but only 5,000 in the opposite direction. The proportion of jobs of a managerial and professional level is 7% which is lower than the South Gloucestershire average of 17%.

Sustainable Community Issues

Positive Good bus links to central Bristol These are well established residential communities. Relatively good access to open spaces including the open countryside.

Negative Some pockets of deprivation within the area with associated health issues. There is a high proportion of out commuting from this area due to the imbalance between jobs and resident workers.

45. Wickwar Description and Context. Wickwar lies close to the District boundary on the B4060, about 5km north of Yate/Chipping Sodbury. The original part of the village dates back to medieval times and historically it was a busy market town. The village was developed on a main trade route and is essentially linear in character. Its wide main street also served as the market area. Alongside was a continuous row of houses each with a narrow frontage and long burgage plots to the rear served by a back access lane.

Wickwar contains many listed buildings. Although there has been modern development mainly on the village edges, the medieval layout and historic character of the former market town remains reasonably intact. The population structure is a good match with the South Gloucestershire average. Constraints Conservation Area

Infrastructure Hourly bus service between Yate and Wotton-under-Edge (but no evening or Sunday service) Access via B4060 to Yate/Chipping Sodbury and Wotton-under- Edge Primary school, range of shops and services, community hall, place of worship, GP surgery, mobile library, playgroup/nursery and youth club Green Space –School field and informal open spaces within development, playing field with cricket pitch, equipped play area and pavilion. Employment In 2001 – around 700 jobs in the local area and 960 economically active. There are a range of occupations within the local area and unlike other settlements these are not dependent on small employers and own account workers.

Two employment areas on the edge of Wickwar – these include the companies Majorlift and Alderley plc. Wickwar Quarry within 2km of the village is also a main employer in the area. Sustainable Community Issues Positive Range of services and facilities Primary school Some job opportunities in area with 2 small industrial estates and quarry

Negative Limited proportion of smaller sized/lower cost housing High car ownership (92% of households have at least 1 car and 63% have at least 2) and 70% travel to work by car Limited bus service South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

46. Winterbourne Description and Context Winterbourne forms the western part of a horseshoe shaped area of development, partly enclosing the River Frome valley, about 2.5-3km between Yate and the outer edge of the Bristol urban area at Mangotsfield/Emersons Green (Frampton Cotterell and Coalpit Heath form the northern and eastern parts). Winterbourne lies between the B4058 and the Frome valley.

These settlements developed from 18th and 19th century Pennant sandstone hamlets to house workers in the local coal mines, hat making industry and agricultural economy. Victorian and 20th century brick houses and infill development led to the coalescence of the three settlements. The London – South Wales high speed railway line physically separates off the lower part of Winterbourne. This area is known as Winterbourne Down. There is an aging population, with a higher proportion of 45+ and lower proportion of under 45 than South Glos average. Constraints Surrounded by Green Belt Close to North Fringe of Bristol

Infrastructure Hourly bus service during day between Yate and Bristol city centre, 2 hourly evening and Sundays. Also less frequent bus service to Aztec West and Cribbs Causeway Access via B4508 to Yate/Chipping Sodbury and Bristol North Fringe Secondary school, primary schools, wide range of shops and services, pubs, community hall, GP surgery, dental practice, place of worship, petrol station, library, playgroup/nursery and youth club Green Infrastructure – allotments, various tennis courts, various sports pitches, various playing fields and a variety of open spaces amongst development. Employment In 2001 – around 1,570 jobs in local area and 3,130 economically active

Range of occupations in the local area, although when compared to South Gloucestershire average there is a lower proportion of higher managerial and professional jobs and a higher proportion of small employers and own account workers, but this is not as significant as in many smaller settlements.

The main employers in Winterbourne are The Ridings High School, Silverhill School and the Royal Mail and, near to Winterbourne, the Grange Hotel.

Sustainable Community Issues Positive Range of house types and tenures Wide range of services and facilities Primary and secondary schools Good bus service South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

Near to employment opportunities in North Fringe

Negative Close to Ring Road and North Fringe – adds to traffic congestion in this area and out-commuting High car ownership (87% of households have at least 1 car and 46% have at least 2) and 68% travel to work by car Insufficient job opportunities in local area

47. Yate and Chipping Sodbury Description and Context Yate/Chipping Sodbury is located north of the M4, approximately 10 miles north east of the centre of Bristol and 5 miles north of the urban edge at Emersons Green. It is linked to Bristol by the A432 and the Birmingham/Penzance railway line and is equidistant between Junctions 18 and 19 of the M4.

Chipping Sodbury is a small medieval town with origins dating back many centuries. Immediately adjacent to it, Yate also had early foundations but was developed as a new town in the late 1960s and 70s, with significant housing development continuing at the northern end of the town until the late 1990s. Much of the housing areas are based on culs de sac with both local and through traffic carried on roads which function as local distributor roads dividing the various housing areas. Yate has a modern retail centre and industrial estates were developed on the western and northern edges of the town. There are more people in the 25-44 age group and fewer in the 65 plus age groups in Yate/Chipping Sodbury than the South Gloucestershire average.

A relief road and modern housing area mark the eastern extent of Yate/Chipping Sodbury, the London Paddington to Swansea main railway line the southern limit, and a limestone quarry complex the north eastern edge.

Chipping Sodbury has an historic medieval core which is a conservation area. The High Street/Broad Street area is a traditional smaller town centre serving mainly “top up” needs of the local community with the characteristics of a traditional market town.

The village of Engine Common is located immediately adjacent to the north west of Yate/Chipping Sodbury (see Engine Common profile)

Constraints to development Land immediately to the south and west of Yate is in the Green Belt. There is a conservation area in Chipping Sodbury, which also has a valued landscape setting with views from and to the Cotswolds AONB and substantial areas of common land with biodiversity interest to the north.

Development opportunities Opportunities for development within the existing urban area are limited. Infrastructure Good bus links to central Bristol and a less regular service to the North Fringe and Bath. Congestion affects some of the primary routes into the towns during rush hour. Rail links to Bristol and Birmingham. The provision of a rail turn-back facility at Yate railway station could potentially increase trains to the North Fringe (Parkway and Abbey Wood stations) and central Bristol South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

from an hourly service to a half hourly service. However, at present only 1% of commuters use the train so, even with a turn back facility, capacity is limited. Yate town centre is vibrant with a wide range of convenience and comparison shopping and some room for expansion. There are a total of 86 units with an A1 use class (i.e. shops rather than financial services, café, etc) which include a wide range of multiples and supermarkets. There is a range of other facilities and services including a leisure centre, library, health centres and a One Stop Shop council Area Office. Commercial leisure facilities and cultural facilities are limited e.g. no cinema/theatre or bowling. Yate Outdoor Sports Centre is located to the north of the town. Chipping Sodbury is a traditional smaller town centre with 56 units with an A1 use class. Given the proximity of Yate it lacks the multiple stores found in other centres. There are a large number of pubs which makes it the centre of evening activity for the area. There are three secondary schools in the town, one of which has spare capacity. Green spaces includes Yate Common, Kingsgate Park and Wapley nature reserve Road links to strategic road network (M4/M5) and Bristol urban area are limited. Employment In 2001 there were around 11,470 jobs within the area and 18,100 economically active workers so the number of jobs per resident worker is around 0.6. However, it should be noted that significant areas of employment are located in Iron Acton parish (on the Great Western Business Park), immediately adjacent to Yate. There are 2,800 jobs in Engine Common and if these jobs are taken into account the number of jobs per resident worker in Yate and Engine Common rises to 0.8. The percentage of higher managerial and professional jobs in Yate is 8% which is significantly lower than the South Gloucestershire average of 17%. The percentage of semi-routine jobs is 20% which is higher than the South Gloucestershire average of 14%. A large proportion of people who live in Yate/Chipping Sodbury and surrounding areas work in the area but given the imbalance between jobs and workers a significant number commute elsewhere.

Sustainable Community Issues Positive Yate/Chipping Sodbury is one of the few communities in South Gloucestershire with a rail link. The provision of the rail turn back facility would further increase the benefits from this public transport link. This has the potential to improve the amount of commuting by rail although the current use of the railway is limited to 1% of trips to work. Good range of retail facilities within the town. Good bus service to central Bristol although congestion affects journey times during the rush hours. Good walking and cycling routes within the town, although some parts of the town are too distant from the centre to make walking attractive. South Gloucestershire Core Strategy

There are local bus links to the town centre. Chipping Sodbury conservation area, some areas of Yate and landscape setting including the AONB to the east are high quality environments.

Negative Some potential air quality issues due to traffic on Station Road and to the quarrying activities to the north east of the area. Significant levels of commuting both in and out of Yate. There are approximately half as many jobs as resident workers in Yate/Chipping Sodbury. Lack of cultural facilities e.g. cinema, youth café and commercial leisure. There is a particular shortage of higher managerial and professional types of employment within the town. Road freight movements to and from Yate to the M4 and M5 are a problem on roads around the town and through nearby communities. Commuter congestion due to limited road links to key employment areas within the Bristol urban area.
