  • Lca 13.5 Misbourne Upper Chalk River Valley
    LCA 13.5 MISBOURNE UPPER CHALK RIVER VALLEY LCA in Context LCA XX LCA 13.5 MISBOURNE UPPER CHALK RIVER VALLEY KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Shallow chalk valley, gently sloping and indented by smaller dry valleys to produce smoothly rolling valley sides, with a relatively wide, flat bottomed floodplain. Valley sides steepening in the upper reaches. • On the valley sides the underlying chalk, and free draining lime-rich soils predominately support arable cultivation, with some calcareous grassland and woodland on higher slopes. • Ancient and semi-natural woodland associated with higher slopes and dry valleys, creating a visual boundary of the area, including mixed, broadleaved and coniferous woodland, which possess significant biodiversity and ecological value. • The valley floor is characterised by rough grassland, permanent pasture and paddocks, and divided into smaller scale fields, by low hedges and wooden post and wire fencing. • The narrow and gently flowing Misbourne River, meanders down the valley, with occasional ponds often located near farmsteads or small villages. The river often runs unnoticeably through this lower landscape. • A string of hamlets and farmsteads exist along the valley floor, with nucleated rows of larger settlements focused along roads. The larger village of Great Missenden is situated in the northern part of the area. Distinctive churches are often a feature of villages. • Post medieval parkland at Shardeloes and Missenden Abbey. Shardeloes House is a visually prominent feature on the valley side. • Varying patterns of field enclosure, with a mix of regular and irregular field boundaries. Large scale fields dominate the valley sides, with smaller scale field divisions along the valley floor.

The methodology for Green Belt site assessment in practice has resulted in sites being discarded at too early a stage in the assessment, prior to any balancing against the spatial strategy for the District. 2.00 CONTEXT 2.01 In the original Regulation 18 consultation on the Chiltern District Local Plan, the Options for a Spatial Strategy to distribute growth sustainably throughout the District included: c) extensions to a wider range of settlements (also Great Missenden, Prestwood and Chalfont St Giles) 2.02 In the subsequent 2016 Consultation on the joint Local Plan, this option remained as something to be considered in the changed context of a recognised shortfall in non-Green Belt land in the larger study area and a substantial need for new housing land: Option E.

This delay has been caused mainly by the discovery, during the preparation of the work, that many of the documents which go to make up a Sessions Roll had become misplaced. It was thus necessary to examine and arrange all the rolls for a period long after the date when this calendar was likely to end, in order to ensure that all records covering the period would be brought together and noted in the calendar.
