St Martins & Hinton Ward Profile FACTS & FIGURES ABOUT HEREFORDSHIRE: ST MARTINS AND HINTON WARD PROFILE The aim of this profile is to draw together useful information about a particular area of Herefordshire, and how it compares to the county overall. It is hoped that it will help users build a picture of the area, and provide evidence that can be used for a range of purposes, including funding bids, strategy documents, business plans and school projects.

Ward Area Profile St Martins & Hinton Ward LOWER SUPER OUTPUT AREAS (LSOAS) AND PARISHES WITHIN ST MARTINS AND HINTON WARD W W W W W W W W W W W W W W Data has traditionally been available for administrative wards, but these aren't really W suitable for statistics as they vary widely in population size and boundaries can change W frequently. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) used the 2001 Census to define statistical geographies (lower super output areas) of about 1,500 people. Wherever possible information for LSOAs in the ward is presented in this profile along with the ward as a whole. If this data is not available or numbers are too small, ward-level only is given. LSOAs nest into Herefordshire's current wards, and usually follow civil parish boundaries - although some rural LSOAs cover several parishes. The map shows how the LSOA and parish boundaries relate to the ward. The table below lists all LSOAs (named by the Research Team) within the ward, and which parish(es) they cover. Lower Super Output Area (LSOA) Covers parish(es) Bishop's Meadow - Hunderton Hereford City (part) Redhill-Belmont Road Hereford City (part) Broadleys Hereford City (part) Hinton Road Hereford City (part) Putson Hereford City (part) Redhill-Ross Road Hereford City (part) Dales & Pastures (very small part of) Hereford City (part) Dales & Pastures (majority) Lower Bullingham (part of) Herefordshire Council Research Team Version 2.1, July 2011 page 2 of 10 Ward Area Profile St Martins & Hinton Ward GENERAL CONTEXTUAL INFORMATION AGE STRUCTURE OF WARD POPULATION†, mid-2009 (ONS small area estimates) Age No. % of total County % of total in ward AGE STRUCTURE in ward breakdown 9% County breakdown 0-4 900 8% 5% 5-9 700 6% 5% 8% 10-14 700 6% 6% 7% 15-19 700 6% 6% 20-24 700 6% 5% 6% 25-29 900 8% 4% 30-34 800 7% 4% 5% 35-39 800 7% 6% 40-44 800 7% 7% 4% 45-49 800 7% 7% 50-54 700 6% 7% 3% 55-59 700 6% 7% of PopulationTotal % 60-64 600 5% 8% 2% 65-69 500 4% 6% 70-74 400 3% 5% 1% 75-79 400 3% 4% 0% 80-84 300 3% 3% 85+ 200 2% 3% Age Group Total 11,500 100% 100% LSOA Bishop's Meadow- Dales and Dales Road LSOA Road LSOA Hinton Road Redhill-Ross Putson LSOA Hinton WardHinton Pastures LSOA Pastures Herefordshire St St Martins and Redhill-Belmont Broadleys LSOA Broadleys Hunderton LSOA POPULATION IN BROAD AGE-GROUPS†, mid-2009 (ONS small area estimates) No 200 400 500 300 400 300 300 2,400 31,000 Under 16 % 13% 22% 24% 23% 22% 20% 20% 21% 17% No 900 1,200 1,300 900 1,100 900 1,000 7,300 109,400 16-64 % 60% 67% 62% 69% 61% 60% 67% 63% 61% No 300 200 300 200 200 200 300 1,700 38,800 65 and over % 20% 11% 14% 15% 11% 13% 20% 15% 22% No 1,500 1,800 2,100 1,300 1,800 1,500 1,500 11,500 179,100 Total % 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% ETHNICITY & COUNTRY OF BIRTH (2001 CENSUS) % of population of ethnic origin other than 'White British' 1.9% 2.6% 1.7% 2.4% 3.1% 3.2% 3.4% 2.6% 2.5% % of population born in a country outside of the UK 2.7% 3.9% 1.9% 2.2% 3.4% 5.4% 4.2% 3.4% 3.3% POPULATION DENSITY, mid-2009 Area (square kilometres) 0.3 0.5 0.4 0.3 1.3 0.3 0.7 3.7 2,180 Population density (persons per square kilometre) 5,285.7 3,993.3 4,874.4 4,753.6 1,346.2 5,062.1 2,361.5 3,103.8 82.2 †Note, estimates are rounded to the nearest 100 so may not sum; percentages are based on rounded figures.

Bloor Homes are the future applicants of a soon to be submitted planning application for a mixed use urban extension of land at Lower Bullingham - known as the ‘Southern Urban Expansion’ in the adopted Herefordshire Local Plan - Core Strategy - to provide amongst other things residential development, B1, B2 and B8 employment uses, a Neighbourhood Community Hub and a new primary school. This Representation, whilst acknowledging the importance of the Hereford Enterprise Zone as an important catalyst for economic generation throughout the Marshes, recommends that a subsection of the additional area brought forward within the Herefordshire Local Plan strategy should be removed due to its importance to the Southern Urban Expansion. It is recognised that the Enterprise Zone will provide new employment workspace committed through the Local Development Order (LDO); providing both highly skilled jobs and encouraging further investment into the area. It is further acknowledged that the LDO will reduce the cost to developers and promote employment generation of the area through avoiding the need for individual planning applications to be made where proposals are in line with the Enterprise Zone, whilst also removing Section 106 obligations and future CIL requirements. However, a small portion of the Enterprise Zone (as highlighted in the map below) actually forms part of the strategic allocation/masterplan for the Southern Urban Expansion of Lower Bullingham (set out in Policy HD6 of the Hereford Local Plan Core Strategy).

The Lower Bullingham Parish has undertaken to prepare an NDP and this process has been subject to environmental appraisal pursuant to the SEA Directive. The Parish lies to the south of Hereford City. The built environment of the Parish is dominated by urban development to the north. To the south, Lower Bullingham retains a semi-rural character of historic farms and agricultural buildings. The Draft Lower Bullingham NDP includes 7 objectives and it is intended that these objectives will be delivered by 10 criteria based planning policies; no site allocations are proposed here. The environmental appraisal of the Lower Bullingham NDP has been undertaken in line with the Environmental Assessment of Plan and Programmes Regulations 2004.

  • Draft Recommendations on the Future Electoral Arrangements for Herefordshire
    Draft recommendations on the future electoral arrangements for Herefordshire January 2001 LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND The Local Government Commission for England is an independent body set up by Parliament. Our task is to review and make recommendations to the Government on whether there should be changes to local authorities’ electoral arrangements. Members of the Commission are: Professor Malcolm Grant (Chairman) Professor Michael Clarke CBE (Deputy Chairman) Peter Brokenshire Kru Desai Pamela Gordon Robin Gray Robert Hughes CBE Barbara Stephens (Chief Executive) We are statutorily required to review periodically the electoral arrangements – such as the number of councillors representing electors in each area and the number and boundaries of wards and electoral divisions – of every principal local authority in England. In broad terms our objective is to ensure that the number of electors represented by each councillor in an area is as nearly as possible the same, taking into account local circumstances. We can recommend changes to ward boundaries, and the number of councillors and ward names. We can also make recommendations for change to the electoral arrangements of parish and town councils in the district. © Crown Copyright 2001 Applications for reproduction should be made to: Her Majesty’s Stationery Office Copyright Unit.
