(372 sq. meters) retail unit (A1) and a boxing club (D2) and in full for a car park associated with the existing Royal British Legion club. In terms of the outline element of the proposal, all matters are reserved for further approval save for the means of access to the site at two points (Llay New Road and Watts Dyke). A site development zoning plan has been submitted which is shown as follows. Note that this plan includes the position of the existing Royal British Legion building which is to be retained as part of the overall proposal. Proposed site zoning layout HISTORY None relevant. PLANNING POLICY The site is located within the settlement limit of Llay as defined by the Wrexham Unitary Development Plan. Policies PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, GDP1, GDP2, EC4, EC13, H2, H7, S6, CLF1, CLF5 and T8 are relevant. Guidance is also contained in Local Planning Guidance Notes 10 – Open Space, 16 – Parking Standards, 21 – Space Around Dwellings, 27 – Education Contributions, 28 – Affordable Housing and 30 – Residential Design Guide. Page 14 REPORT OF THE HEAD OF ENVIRONMENT AND PLANNING – Date 2nd JULY 2018 National planning policy contained in Planning Policy Wales (PPW) and Technical Advice Notes (TAN) 5 – Nature Conservation and Planning, 12 – Design and 18 – Transport. CONSULTATIONS Community Council: Object for the following reasons: • There will be increased pressure on local school spaces and the local health centre; • Many local users of the Royal British Legion (RBL) are able to allow their children to play outside, whilst supporting this much valued local amenity. Land used for safe leisure by children will be lost as part of the development; • With the loss of allocated parking bays, plus the increase of regular vehicles associated with such a large number of new residential dwellings, parking for everyone will become chaotic; • There will be increased traffic using the retail premises; • The access roads to all facilities looks poorly designed and, along with the already heavy traffic use on the nearby Llay New Road, it is a serious concern that this will lead to traffic problems throughout the day and night. And this is before the increased traffic using the same highway to access the forthcoming new Police Station; • There are already some flooding issues that occur in the area of the RBL – which will only get worse. • The plans do not appear to address the increased requirements for sewerage and associated works; and • The number of planned residential dwellings has already changed twice in a relatively short time, the current numbers of over 50 houses seem too large for the area they are planned to be built in. Local Member: Councillor Rob Walsh Objects. The application should be refused on the following grounds: • Llay Health Centre is full to bursting. Llay residents struggle to obtain a GP appointment at present. With the likely Page 15 REPORT OF THE HEAD OF ENVIRONMENT AND PLANNING – Date 2nd JULY 2018 closure of Gresford surgery, the addition of 362 houses on Gresford Road (P/2014/0905) and 18 houses south of Llay Miners Welfare (P/2016/0373) shows that Llay is being developed at a faster rate than the infrastructure is being provided. To add another 51 houses to the Llay Community is very irresponsible in the current climate. Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board`s silence over this issue is not evidence that everything is OK. Unless Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board are prepared to invest in a brand new health centre for Llay fully equipped with the required number of staff, then no further development should take place in Llay. As a result, I believe this application breaches Policy GDP2 as the capacity of infrastructure will be deficient as a consequence of this development. • Parking. The current Llay Royal British Legion site does hold several major events every year and these are catered for due to the large car park facility on site. The reduction of the car park could see an increase in cars parking on Llay New Road and Watt`s Dyke when a big event takes place. This would cause major disruption to traffic, particularly on the already busy Llay New Road. This problem has been made worse due to the decision by Wrexham County Borough Council to charge for car parking at Alyn Waters Country Park. Many park users refuse to park at Alyn Waters anymore and choose streets such as Llay New Road and Watt`s Dyke. As a result, I believe this application breaches Policy CLF1 as it is highly likely to have an adverse affect on a multi-activity community facility, i.e. Llay Royal British Legion. • Concerned about the proposed access to the site from Llay New Road and Watt`s Dyke. The proposed entry accesses are very close to existing junctions. Page 16 REPORT OF THE HEAD OF ENVIRONMENT AND PLANNING – Date 2nd JULY 2018 • Accepts that this site has been on the UDP for several years now and I have no problem with the principle of this site being developed and accepts that at some point in the future development will take place here. However, unless the issues of appropriate Primary Health Care in Llay and appropriate car parking provision for the Royal British Legion are addressed, then I will support the refusal of this application. Site notices: Expired 05.06.2017 Press notice: Expired 10.06.2017 Highways: No objection subject to conditions. Public Protection: Construction nuisance protection conditions and notes to applicant are required. Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) Officer: The ground conditions are generally suitable for infiltration. As there are some uncertainties regarding the final scheme design it is necessary to add a condition requiring further drainage detail which includes an investigation into the use of SuDS. NRW: No objection but makes the following observations: • A condition should be imposed to seek approval of a Construction Environmental Management Plan to protect the nearby Llay Bog SSSI; • The site is outside any defined flood risk outline. The LLFA is best placed to determine surface water flood risk form the proposal; Education: Awaiting response Welsh Water: Drainage proposals are acceptable in principle but should be subject to a planning condition to approve the final design detail. Parks and Rights of Way: The application site adjoins Alyn Waters and will have an impact upon the park. In lieu of on-site open space provision a contribution towards improvements to the park would be preferable. Ramblers: The development should not interfere with footpath Llay11. Neighbouring occupiers: 33 neighbouring occupiers notified. 20 responses received raising the following responses: Page 17 REPORT OF THE HEAD OF ENVIRONMENT AND PLANNING – Date 2nd JULY 2018 • There are many occasions where there are between 80-100 cars parked on the RBL car park.

  • A Landscape Strategy for Cheshire West and Chester Borough
    A LANDSCAPE STRATEGY FOR CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER BOROUGH General Description This character type is defined by undulating topography and the associated small to medium scale enclosure into which it is divided. Key characteristics are the generally cohesive and un- fragmented historic landscape in the south of the borough, small woodlands, ponds and streams, nucleated rural villages and scattered farmsteads. Land use is mainly pasture. Away from main roads, railways and settlement the landscape is generally quiet and rural. Views within this type very much depend upon location and the nature of the immediate topography. There is a range of monuments from Bronze Age barrows to post medieval canal locks. The character type is found across a large part of the Cheshire West and Chester borough; to the east between Northwich and the Sandstone Ridge and in the south of the borough. Visual Character The location of this landscape type is reflected in the prevailing views which extend to adjacent character areas, either out over the low-lying plain or up towards the often dominant Sandstone Ridge. Roads typically follow the rolling topography, offering extensive views from high vantage points out over the immediate field pattern and extending to the high ground in the far distance such as the Pennines in the east. Long distance views are sometimes affected by large scale industrial works in adjacent areas. From low ground the landscape appears smaller in scale due to the increase in enclosure and the contained views where skylines are typically formed by hedgerow trees, woodland and farmsteads, with occasional electricity pylons and church spires.

  • Planning Application P/2017/0799 – for an Intensive Poultry Installation and Associated Works At: Land at Mulsford Farm, Mulsford, Sarn, Malpas SY147LP
    Planning application P/2017/0799 – for an intensive poultry installation and associated works at: Land at Mulsford Farm, Mulsford, Sarn, Malpas SY147LP Threapwood Parish Council herby wish to register an OBJECTION to the above application on the following grounds: 1) In the opinion of the Parish Council, the proposed development does not meet the criteria required under Wrexham County Borough Council – Policy EC3: Agricultural buildings for the following reasons: a) The mass, height and operation of the proposed development in this location will have a detrimental impact on the environment and surrounding landscape. b) The isolated position of the proposed development does not form part of a farm complex. The recent construction of a grain store does not constitute a farm complex and has a low impact on the environment compared to the proposed commercial development. c) There are no exceptional circumstances why the proposed development should be located at this isolated but visually intrusive location in open countryside. d) The applicant has not demonstrated why it is necessary to locate the unit here compared to other options within their farming network where there might be a better fit with infrastructure and management. 2) Visual Amenity a) The proposed development is located in open countryside in a shallow valley alongside the Wych Brook. The unspoilt view from the settlement of Threapwood across the valley to Ruabon Moor in the background is a recognised visual amenity for the community. 3) Highway Issues a) The access route to the site navigates narrow lanes with limited passing places for HGV’s and will add stress to the road network.

  • THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY of SHOCKLACH CASTLE, CHESHIRE Rachel Swallow
    TWO FOR ONE: THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF SHOCKLACH CASTLE, CHESHIRE Rachel Swallow Introduction Between 1995 and 1997, staff and students at University College Chester, now the University of Chester, surveyed three earthwork motte-and-bailey castle sites at Pulford, Shocklach and Dodleston in west Cheshire. That for Pulford castle was published in this journal in 1997-98.1 This article publishes the survey for Shocklach castle for the first time. None of the three castles have been excavated. Previous studies have neither examined their defences, nor their internal structures to any notable extent. While limited historical references give some context for the earthworks at Shocklach, discussion of all three sites in secondary sources is sparse, and often of little more than one line.2 Therefore, the accurate and detailed survey presented here has been influential in prompting the further detailed and multi- disciplinary research by the author, as an integral part of doctoral research on the castles of Cheshire and their landscapes. This has resulted in successfully tracing historical and archaeological references relevant to Shocklach, as well as, for the first time, offering a broader, contextual study of the landscape context of Shocklach. Shocklach is a so-called minor baronial castle.3 It is situated within the powerful border earldom of Cheshire, with its base at Chester (see Figure 1). This position gave Shocklach strategic importance within Next Page: Figure 1: Location of Shocklach castle, Cheshire, in relation to other border castles in the vicinity. (Dodleston, also shown in bold, will be the subject of a paper in next year’s volume.) Contains OS data © Crown copyright and database right 2013.
