CREATIVE THINKING PROJECT IDEAS from an Event Held at the Alnwick Garden on 26Th June 2018 CREATIVE THINKING PROJECT IDEAS from an event held at The Alnwick Garden on 26th June 2018 BACKGROUND Following the Northumberland County Council’s Borderlands stakeholder event held at Northumberland Hall in Alnwick on 22nd May 2018, a number of local organisations felt it necessary to hold a wider consultation event which involved a broader spectrum of stakeholders and provided a greater opportunity to ‘have their say’ and input into the Borderlands debate. We acknowledged the remit and themes and geared the Alnwick event around the presentation from the 22nd May event as well as from the Dumfries Conference. Our Creative Thinking event took the form of round table discussion with table leaders capturing ideas and to allow opportunity for everyone to contribute. The AIM was to put Alnwick at the heart of Northumberland’s thinking in relation to the Borderlands Growth Deal and to enable businesses, traders, communities and residents to give creative input and express their views and aspirations for the town and Borderlands area. Consideration was also given to the proposals within the Draft Local Plan for the period 2016 – 2036 and what it intends to achieve over that period – for example: • Enable the development and diversification of the rural economy, and deliver the Borderlands Initiative, by supporting the creation and expansion of hubs for business services and creative industries in the County’s market towns, rural service centres and larger villages, and through more home run enterprises; • Support the growth and diversification of the visitor economy, including the development of tourism facilities and accommodation; • Support improvements to town centres; • Support initiatives to improve skills levels in Northumberland's resident workforce; • Allow Northumberland’s natural and historic environment to continue to be experienced and valued by residents and visitors, within the scope that is possible to maintain their full protection and allow for their enhancement; • Provide a range of viable, efficient sustainable transport alternatives to reduce reliance on the private motor vehicle, • Ensure Northumberland continues to have a well-established and spatially distributed network of waste management facilities, with sufficient capacity and that recycling and recovery rates are maximised; Additionally, consideration has been given to homeless statistics (Dept for Communities and Local Government). - 2 - MESSAGES FROM THE EVENT LEADERS Loving Alnwick is a community based concept, inspired by the Love Northumberland project. It is a non- political, not for profit community hub that has been created to work alongside more formal organisations. Loving Alnwick puts volunteering at the heart of its work and provides opportunities for local people to get involved in their communities and value where they live in meaningful ways. I feel that Loving Alnwick has much to offer in this stakeholder consultation process. My ambition for the Borderlands Growth Deal is to give local residents a voice and an opportunity to work in partnership with others to create some amazing ideas for Alnwick that will fulfil the remit of the Borderlands themes as stated by the Local Authorities and national government. Loving Alnwick, The Chamber of Trade and The Alnwick Garden agreed to work in partnership to lead this event. The interest and transformational ideas that ensued far exceeded our expectations and there is a desire for the consultation process to continue. Following simple publicity and ‘chatting on the streets’ it became evident that people in Alnwick have some great ideas and they are indeed passionate about their ‘destination’ and what the future holds for our young as well as older people. We hope the findings in this report demonstrate both commitment and understanding of the towns challenges and the aspirations for the future in making not only Alnwick but the Borders a great place to live, work and play. Linda Wood-Mitchell - Loving Alnwick Keep it Clean, Green and Safe. I really do believe if we could achieve this it would greatly improve the chances of big investment in the town. I strongly believe the market place should be at the heartbeat of the old town and should be the place we should concentrate our efforts. We need big attractions as we are more and more becoming a favourite destination. We need to make Alnwick a place where people want to come and spend quality time. People need to have a reason for being in the town therefore we need to seek to increase business use of the current empty shops before embarking on out of town development. We need to grab this opportunity through Borderlands to increase parking facilities and to ensure greater footfall into the town. Carlo Biagioni - Chamber of Trade (Chair) _______________________________________________________________________________________ I believe we should use the impetus created by this exercise to promote Alnwick by holding an event entitled Investing in Alnwick. This event should take the form of a conference held at the leisure centre. I believe it should be run by Alnwick Chamber of Trade together with other stakeholders in the town with help from ARCH in their new role of promoting the market towns. It should take the form of showcasing the positives about Alnwick. The aim would be to attract inward investment to the town in the form of manufacturing and service industries together with people wanting to come and live here. It could even include leisure service providers. It would also include retail businesses wishing to take vacant premises in the town centre. I would envisage this taking place in the spring of 2019. We are keen to develop the ideas put forward in this report whether or not we get substantial funding from Border Growth Fund (see Our Next Steps for more info). David Taylor - Chamber of Trade (Vice Chair) - 3 - The Borderlands Growth initiative is an inspiring one and offers the promise of significant transformational investment to areas that have historically felt marginalised by urban centric capital spending. The town of Alnwick is special and has great potential but as with many other historic market towns has a high street that has felt the impact of large retailers opening business parks on the outskirts of town. Another challenge is Alnwick’s reliance on tourism and the seasonal nature of this industry. There are solutions to these challenges but a significant amount of Capital investment will be needed. I can see a time in the not too distant future where Alnwick can boast a 12 month tourist season supporting new jobs and educational opportunities for young people. The Borderlands initiative offers a key to unlocking the potential of the area and The Alnwick Garden, as an active member of the Alnwick community, will support all the initiatives put forward that will benefit the area. Mark Brassell - The Alnwick Garden - 4 - Attendance at the Creative Thinking Event The event held on Tuesday 26th June attracted over 40 participants from over 17 different organisations along with residents, traders and town council members. Ideas have also been flooding in from people in the Chamber of Trade and others in organisations who could not attend the event but wished their thoughts to be included in the discussions. In total over 100 people have contributed with ideas that will make a real difference to the Borderlands themes of: Digital, Energy, Destination, Productivity, Business Growth, Transport, Innovation and Skills, and Quality of Place. - 5 - Representation at the meeting included: Additional contributions via email Local residents and websites have come from: Loving Alnwick Chamber of Trade members Local residents The Alnwick Garden Chamber of Trade members Alnwick Town Council Alnwick Arts and Crafts Keep it Clean Hardy’s Museum Alnwick Lions Markets/Local Living Tourist Information Alnwick Auctions NEED Ltd Rotary Church of Jesus Christ Latter-day Saints Friends of the Earth Alnwick Civic Society Restaurants Bed and Breakfast establishments Business Co-operatives Alnwick Arch Climbing Centre Alnwick Talking Newspaper Some project ideas discussed around the tables Key Issues Alnwick Distillery Training and upskilling Seek out Investors – Brexit opportunities/find key people/who Health inequality/ageing are our celebrities population/obesity Business Park – Starter Units, Science Park, Hot desking Decline of the arts Borderlands College/Centre of Excellence/Knowledge exchange Need for entrepreneurs/investors Transport Hub - Extend the Railway – Park and Ride – Parking Infrastructure - Cycleway Empty business premises Affordable Housing No jobs for young people Digital Connectivity Young people leaving the area Town Centre Improvements - cobbles, car parking, pedestrian Lack of joined-up thinking zones, market place Adventure Hub - Climbing Centre – Social/Community spaces Recycling Village Rehabilitation Village Alnwick Foyer – for vulnerable young people living in the Borders Borderlands promotion of the area – video/interactive website/ Alnwick Business Village Aln Valley Railway extension/extend cycleway/Boris bikes Electric car charging points Cover in the market place Cinema, Arts Town centre improvements Detail ideas already in the pipeline WHAT FOLLOWS We have co-ordinated the results/ideas into your template for your further consideration as requested. - 6 - PROJECT TEMPLATES COMPLETED TO THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY AT THIS STAGE 1.

  • Northumberland Coast Designation History
    DESIGNATION HISTORY SERIES NORTHUMBERLAND COAST AONB Ray Woolmore BA(Hons), MRTPI, FRGS December 2004 NORTHUMBERLAND COAST AONB Origin 1. The Government first considered the setting up of National Parks and other similar areas in England and Wales when, in 1929, the Prime Minister, Ramsay Macdonald, established a National Park Committee, chaired by the Rt. Hon. Christopher Addison MP, MD. The “Addison” Committee reported to Government in 1931, and surprisingly, the Report1 showed that no consideration had been given to the fine coastline of Northumberland, neither by witnesses to the Committee, nor by the Committee itself. The Cheviot, and the moorland section of the Roman Wall, had been put forward as National Parks by eminent witnesses, but not the unspoilt Northumberland coastline. 2. The omission of the Northumberland coastline from the 1931 Addison Report was redressed in 1945, when John Dower, an architect/planner, commissioned by the Wartime Government “to study the problems relating to the establishment of National Parks in England and Wales”, included in his report2, the Northumberland Coast (part) in his Division C List: “Other Amenity Areas NOT suggested as National Parks”. Dower had put forward these areas as areas which although unlikely to be found suitable as National Parks, did deserve and require special concern from planning authorities “in order to safeguard their landscape beauty, farming use and wildlife, and to increase appropriately their facilities for open-air recreation”. A small-scale map in the Report, (Map II page 12), suggests that Dower’s Northumberland Coast Amenity Area stretched southwards from Berwick as a narrow coastal strip, including Holy Island, to Alnmouth.

  • Lesbury Parish Neighbourhood Development Plan
    LESBURY PARISH NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMENT PLAN Appendix A: Non-designated Heritage Assets in the Plan Area Lesbury and how it sits within the North Northumberland Coastal Plain The coastal plain links Newcastle and more southern parts of Northumberland with Scotland as both the A1 and East Coast Main Line run through its length. The coast is of national and international nature conservation importance for its geology, coastal sand dune complexes, maritime cliffs and slopes, offshore islands and intertidal habitats (including mudflats, coastal salt marsh and eelgrass beds) which support internationally significant populations of birds and grey seals, nationally important invertebrate assemblages and scarce plants. The Parish of Lesbury sits close to the length of coastline which is therefore covered by Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) Alnmouth Estuary, Special Area of Conservation (SAC), Special Protection Area (SPA) and RAMSAR designations. Twenty-five miles North along the A1, Lindisfarne and the Farne Islands are also designated as National Nature Reserves (NNRs). The sweeping sandy beaches, dunes and rocky headlands continue north into Scotland and south into the South East Northumberland Coastal Plain. The designated areas of the Northumbria Coast Special Protection Area (SPA) and RAMSAR site and North Northumberland Heritage Coast extend south into the South East Northumberland Coastal Plain. The history, geology, habitats and sheer beauty of the area make it a very important tourist and research destination. Three major rivers, the Tweed, Aln and Coquet, meander across the North Northumberland Coastal Plain to the sea; the Aln drains from Alnham in the Cheviot Fringe NCA, past Alnwick in the Northumberland Sandstone Hills NCA to the sea (through Lesbury) at Alnmouth.

  • Lesbury House V6
    Lesbury House (and some of its residents). The first formal recording concerning the property is that a local businessman, William Hay, in 1812 was leasing Lesbury House from the Duke of Northumberland. During the last years of the previous century William Hay, through a fortuitous marriage and a win, in todays terms, of £65000 in the ‘national lottery’, built up a series of businesses in Alnmouth. Twenty seven years earlier, in 1785 he had expanded his business empire by taking over, with the mill, ’a house with stables in Lesbury.’ We know that in 1791 William sold his house in Alnmouth and it is speculated that, by incorporating some of the existing building as a rear wing, he had Lesbury House built. Historic England in its current listing of the property describes the house, at this time. as being ‘built around 1800 and incorporating an earlier eighteenth century rear wing’. The building listed consisted of much of the property which we see today with a southern frontage of five bays and a centrally located front door. An 1812 site plan shows a ‘substantial house’ with an extension to the north and a range of smaller buildings adjoining its eastern side. Principal access was through the current drive. The plan also shows two contiguous ranges of buildings just to the north of the entrance where the cottages now stand. The uneven wall to the north of the property facing Main Street can be seen to be part of a further four of the original buildings (cottages or outbuildings). There was a secondary (or service) entrance to the house just to the west of these cottages.

  • Advisory Visit River Aln Northumberland 15/06/2015
    Advisory Visit River Aln Northumberland 15/06/2015 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit to the River Aln in Northumberland, undertaken by Gareth Pedley of the Wild Trout Trust on Monday 15th June, 2015. The visit was requested by Gary Pentleton, Secretary of Aln Angling Association, to advise on future management of the Association waters and how to improve the wild fish populations of the river. Also in attendance, from the angling club were Tom Wilson, Russell Jobson and David Shotton. This report covers observations made on the day of the visit and assesses options for maintaining and developing a wild trout fishery. Normal convention is applied throughout this report with respect to bank identification, i.e. the banks are designated left bank (LB) or right bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Upstream and downstream references are often abbreviated to U/S and D/S, respectively, for convenience. The Ordnance Survey National Grid Reference system is used for identifying locations. Table 1.
