  • Roseland Neighbourhood Development Plan
    THE ROSELAND PLAN OUR ROSELAND - OUR FUTURE www.roselandplan.org [email protected] Roseland Neighbourhood Development Plan Our Plan for the Period 2015 - 2030 Produced by the Roseland Neighbourhood Development Plan Steering Group May 2015 Statement of General Conformity with the Cornwall Local Plan – Strategic Policies, 2016 Following the Adoption of the Cornwall Local Plan: Strategic Policies (CLP) on 22nd November 2016, any Neighbourhood Development Plan ‘made’ prior to that date has been checked against the policies of the CLP for general conformity. The full report may be viewed at www.cornwall.gov.uk The Roseland Peninsula NDP has been assessed to determine whether any of its policies would be in conflict with the policies of the Cornwall Local Plan. In the case of the Roseland Peninsula NDP it was concluded that two policies of the NDP are out of general conformity with the CLP. These are Policies HO3 (Re-use of redundant buildings) and Policy HO4 (new affordable housing). They are not in general conformity because they require affordable housing to be provided below the new thresholds set out in national guidance and the adopted CLP (2016). All other policies of the plan remain in general conformity with the CLP 2016 and should be used in determining planning applications in the NDP area. Details are set out below of the conformity issue on HO3 and HO4 and how we propose that the policies will continue to be used: HO3 – Re-use of redundant buildings Part of this policy is no longer in conformity with Policy 8 of the CLP or National Policy as it is affecting proposals below the required threshold for provision of affordable housing or contributions towards the provision of affordable housing.

  • SMP2 PDZ5 Final Report 11
    Location reference: Lower Fal Management Area reference: MA11 Policy Development Zone: PDZ5 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly SMP2 Final Report Chapter 4 PDZ5 7 February 2011 DISCUSSION AND DETAILED POLICY DEVELOPMENT The preferred plan for the Lower Fal aims to balance the provision of support to the core settlements of Falmouth, Penryn, St Mawes, St Just, Flushing, Restronguet and Mylor (in line with the high-level SMP objectives) with a management approach which does not adversely impact on the undeveloped parts of the lower estuary and importantly takes account of any potential impacts on the Fal & Helford SAC. It is important to note that there is a legal requirement to not adversely affect the integrity of the SAC; through impacts such as the loss of intertidal feeding areas by not allowing the high water mark to move inland due to climate change. This, of course, requires a number of different policy options to be employed at different locations. From a high level view-point, it can be seen that across the whole Management Area (and indeed across the entire estuary system) there will be a trend toward a reduction in intertidal area due to sea level rise. Wherever the landward movement of MHWS is constrained by the rising topography or defences, reduction in intertidal area may occur. It is likely that a net overall reduction in intertidal area may occur toward the latter part of the SMP timeframe when considering sea level rise in isolation. However the picture is actually much more complex than this – erosion, accretion, sedimentation, changes in the tidal prism, increases in rainfall and fluvial flow will also affect the current pattern of intertidal exposure.

Yet from the road leading down to Place Quay, or from the St Mawes estuary, one does not see a church at St Anthony but rather the long white-painted house of Place, with stables and a cottage beside it. The house has a central carriage porch beneath a tall tower, which is itself topped by a spire which splays out at its base (known as a broach spire). The group of buildings forms an impressive ensemble and it is only at a second glance that one notices a taller spire, also of the broach variety, rising just behind the house and shadowed by the thick woodland which climbs high above it. The reason for this self-effacing position of the church, almost hidden behind – and subordinate to – the big house, lies in its long history. Front cover: Monument to Admiral Thomas Spry, d.1828 (Boris Baggs) Left: The chancel, looking east (Boris Baggs) 2 Exterior from the south-east (Boris Baggs) 3 HISTORY The CHURCH There may well have been a little chapel land in both Devon and Cornwall.
