It is important that these policies are read together, as planning applications will be assessed against all relevant policies. • Implementation: Details on how the policies will be delivered and monitored. • Explanation of how the Core Strategy aligns to the Borough Strategy (Appendix 1), explanation of relevant aspects of Regional Policy (Appendix 2) and detail of which Unitary Development Plan policies are replaced by the Core Strategy (Appendix 3). Policy Context 1.3 The Local Development Framework forms part of the statutory development plan for Doncaster. The development plan informs decisions on planning applications and a range of implementation plans. As well as the Core Strategy, the Local Development Framework includes Development Plan Documents that allocate sites (and which collectively form the Proposals Map). Further detail on individual policies may also be provided in separate Supplementary Planning Documents. A separate Waste Core Strategy has been prepared with Barnsley and Rotherham (known as the Joint Waste Plan). 1.4 In line with national policy, the Core Strategy policies are positively worded and set out what will be supported. For each relevant policy, it will be necessary to consider whether the proposal would make a positive contribution towards its implementation, having regard to its nature and potential impact. It should be noted that the policies are flexibly worded and some indicate that proposals can contribute to meeting the objectives of the policy by ensuring that any negative impacts which cannot be avoided are properly justified, mitigated and compensated (e.g. policies CS16 and CS17). Where this is not the case, the proposal is contrary to the policy and so not supported by the Core Strategy. 6 Doncaster Council Core Strategy, 2011 - 2028 1.5 The Local Development Framework must take account of national planning policy, which is underpinned by the need to achieve economic, social and environmental sustainability. At a regional level, the Regional Spatial Strategy for Yorkshire and Humber was adopted in May 2008 as part of the Development Plan, meaning that the Local Development Framework had to be in general conformity with it. However, the Secretary of State has made a clear intention to abolish Regional Spatial Strategies, and this is reflected in the Localism Act. While the regional policy context is therefore likely to disappear, the evidence base and consultation which informed it is still relevant. The Core Strategy therefore maintains an approach broadly in-line with the Yorkshire and Humber Plan, except where more up-to-date local evidence base which indicates otherwise. Appendix 2 summarises the key aspects of the Regional Spatial Strategy which have informed the Core Strategy. 1.6 Local Enterprise Partnerships need to be acknowledged in this context as the new mechanisms to make strategic economic decisions, based on the national imperatives around rebalancing economies from over reliance on public sector employment to new sectors of growth. The dramatic reduction in public spending provides further impetus for a shift towards new forms of wealth generation. Local flexibility will be key to ensuring Doncaster is able to respond positively to the changing conditions. 1.7 The Core Strategy (and wider Local Development Framework) is also closely linked to the Doncaster Borough Strategy (see Chapter 2), and other key strategies produced by the council, such as the Economic Strategy, Housing Strategy, Local Transport Plan, Greenspace Strategy and Biodiversity Action Plan. Doncaster - the place 1.8 Archaeological evidence shows that there was human activity in the Doncaster area from prehistoric times. Doncaster’s origins as a town, though, date from Roman times as ‘Danum’, a fortified crossing point of the River Don along the important Roman road which linked London to York. The town was rebuilt by the Normans after William I took the throne. The Normans also built castles in the Saxon settlement of Conisbrough (where its largely intact remains can be visited today), in Tickhill, and elsewhere in the borough. Doncaster continued to evolve as a busy market town which along with Bawtry, Thorne, Tickhill, Mexborough, and Conisbrough all provided centres for trade for the surrounding

  • Servants' Passage
    SERVANTS’ PASSAGE: Cultural identity in the architecture of service in British and American country houses 1740-1890 2 Volumes Volume 1 of 2 Aimée L Keithan PhD University of York Archaeology March 2020 Abstract Country house domestic service is a ubiquitous phenomenon in eighteenth and nineteenth century Britain and America. Whilst shared architectural and social traditions between the two countries are widely accepted, distinctive cultural identity in servant architecture remains unexplored. This thesis proposes that previously unacknowledged cultural differences between British and American domestic service can be used to rewrite narratives and re-evaluate the significance of servant spaces. It uses the service architecture itself as primary source material, relying on buildings archaeology methodologies to read the physical structures in order to determine phasing. Archival sources are mined for evidence of individuals and household structure, which is then mapped onto the architecture, putting people into their spaces over time. Spatial analysis techniques are employed to reveal a more complex service story, in both British and American houses and within Anglo-American relations. Diverse spatial relationships, building types and circulation channels highlight formerly unrecognised service system variances stemming from unique cultural experiences in areas like race, gender and class. Acknowledging the more nuanced relationship between British and American domestic service restores the cultural identity of country house servants whose lives were not only shaped by, but who themselves helped shape the architecture they inhabited. Additionally, challenging accepted narratives by re-evaluating domestic service stories provides a solid foundation for a more inclusive country house heritage in both nations. This provides new factors on which to value modern use of servant spaces in historic house museums, expanding understanding of their relevance to modern society.

  • Settlement Profiles
    Settlement Profiles Local Plan Evidence Base www.doncaster.gov.uk Doncaster Settlement Profiles 1.1. As part of the emerging Local Plan, a Settlement Audit was undertaken in 2014 to better understand the service provision across the borough, which in turn helped to determine the Local Plan Settlement Hierarchy. This process is dealt with at length in both the Settlement Audit and the Settlement Background Paper. 1.2. However, some consultation responses to the Settlement Audit and the Homes and Settlements consultation intimated that the Settlement Audit could be further expanded on and clarified. 1.3. As such, the following profiles have been developed which seeks to provide portraits of each defined settlement within the borough (the Main Urban Area; 7 Main Towns; 10 Service Towns and Villages; and 12 Defined Villages). 1.4. Each portrait will expand on the results of the Settlement Audit, and will provide ‘profiles’ for each settlement, dealing with social, economic and environmental matters, as per the Settlement Audit. 1.5. Occasionally, some scores or information published in the Settlement Audit Update (2017) have been amended. These amendments and the rationale are presented overleaf in Table A. 1.6. Information about the Settlement Hierarchy and allocations within each settlement are provided in the Settlement Background Paper and Site Selection Methodology. For convenience, a number of abridged settlement profiles have also been provided in the Settlement Housing Summaries. 1 Settlement Amendment Rationale Change to Scores?

  • New-Build Housing, Mobility and the Life Course a Study of Housing-Driven Economic Growth Strategy in Doncaster
    New-build housing, mobility and the life course A study of housing-driven economic growth strategy in Doncaster By: Amy Clare Beckett A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Social Sciences Department of Urban Studies and Planning 2018 Supervised by Dr Nicola Dempsey and Professor Ed Ferrari Abstract By implementing housing strategies which focus improving provision for more affluent groups, policymakers may hope to alter the demographic mix of a locality with the aim of stimulating economic growth to compete more effectively in a globalised world. This thesis examines the potential role of high-end new-build housing as part of a ‘bootstraps’ (Eisenschitz and Gough, 1993) local economic growth strategy in the context of ‘austerity urbanism’ (Peck, 2012). To explore these issues, the thesis employs a mixed-method, biographical approach to examine inward and internal migration into new-build homes in Doncaster, a post-industrial metropolitan borough in South Yorkshire. In doing so, the research provides a story of Doncaster, its neighbourhoods and its residents, exploring the ways in which individual, shared and collective narratives combine to influence household needs and preferences, and ultimately mobility outcomes. The empirical findings of this research suggest that targeted high-end new-build housing is insufficient as a policy mechanism to attract the substantial inward migration of middle-to-high income groups in Doncaster. Here, the potential economic benefit associated with a housing-based urban competition strategy appears not to have been met in empirical outcomes. In addition, whilst new-build housing provided a welcome addition to local market for more affluent existing residents and newcomers, findings suggest a policy focus on more affluent groups has the potential to exacerbate local spatial inequalities and threaten social cohesion by creating new opportunities for the segregation of more affluent groups.

There have been a number of major garden restorations that have added to the understanding of the past and delighted visitors. Developments in refining historic landscape characterisation, designing contemporary heritage gardens and regenerating public parks have far-reaching implications This issue of Conservation Bulletin focuses on historic gardens and landscape. The Mori Poll undertaken as part of the consultation for the historic environment review shows that people value places, not just as a series of individual sites and buildings but as part of a familiar and much-loved environment – a landscape. As the Black Environment Network has commented in response to the poll: ‘People need to understand the components of their locality – street names, elements of their home, cultural memory, places of worship, green spaces – they all have stories’. It is the whole place, not any individual feature, which speaks to them of their history and which is why we have called the review Power of Place .

  • South Yorkshire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities
    South Yorkshire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities Third Edition Whatever your needs, access to and enjoyment of the countryside is rewarding, healthy and great fun. This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… With a foreword by Lord David Blunkett This directory was designed for people with a disability, though the information included will be useful to everyone. South Yorkshire is a landscape and culture steeped in a history of coal mining, steel industry, agriculture and the slightly more light hearted tradition of butterscotch production in Doncaster! In recent years the major cities and towns have undergone huge transformations but much of the history and industry is still visible today including steel manufacturing in Sheffield, the medieval streets of Rotherham and the weekly town centre market in Barnsley – a tradition held since 1249! For those that enjoy the outdoors, South Yorkshire is equally diverse. You can enjoy the many tracks and trails of the spectacular Peak District National Park or the Trans Pennine Trail, the rolling fields of corn and windmills of Penistone, and the wildfowl delights of Rother Valley Country Park – an opencast coal mine turned local nature reserve. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, getting out into the countryside on your own, doing voluntary work, or investigating your local wildlife from home, we hope you get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside.

  • Heritage Statement Brodsworth Hall Eyecatcher
    Heritage Statement Brodsworth Hall Eyecatcher Listed Building Consent for masonry repairs December 2020 Introduction 1. This Heritage Statement has been prepared in support of a Listed Building Consent application for repairs to the Grade II listed Eyecatcher in the grounds of Brodsworth Hall. The Heritage Statement considers the impacts of the proposed works on the building and its setting. Introduction to the site 2. Brodsworth Hall, situated 3km west of Adwick-le-Street and 9km north-west of Doncaster, South Yorkshire, is a late 19th century Grade I listed country house set within a Grade II* registered garden and parkland. The house is Italianate in style and is of a single phase of construction (1861-1863), being built by Charles Sabine Thellusson to replace a demolished 18th century house the site of which is located a short distance to the north. 3. Built from the proceeds of the controversial will of Peter Thellusson who died in 1797, but aimed to control his estate beyond the grave by leaving £700,000 with its accumulated interest to be inherited by the eldest great grandson following the deaths of all intermediate lineal male descendants. The guardianship site forms the core of the much larger Brodsworth Estate and inextricably linked with the Thellusson family who have owned it since the late 18th century. The Eyecatcher 4. The Eyecatcher is situated above the former quarry, elevated high above the Target Range. The Target Range, with the Grove, is c160m long and truncated at the north end by a summer house known as the Target House or Archery Pavilion.
