Spaces numbered 10 and 11 will prove rather awkward to enter and 3 exit, however it is likely that all manoeuvring will take place within the site curtilage and this layout is similar to the parking provided when the building was in use as a pub. It is possible that additional ‘overflow’ parking could take place in the landscaped car parking area if necessary. All parking spaces are shown of sufficient width and length with 6m manoeuvring space behind. On the basis of the information provided, I am of the opinion that I could not justify a highway objection. I recommend that no highway objection is raised subject to the following condition being applied:- No part of the development hereby permitted shall be first occupied until the turning area and parking spaces have been completed in accordance with the details shown on the approved plans. The areas shall be maintained for those purposes at all times thereafter. REASON: In the interests of highway safety. Original comments: I refer to the above planning application for a change of use from A4 to C4 (house of multiple occupation). The plans show that 14 bedrooms will be available within the building with a provision of 12 parking spaces. Whilst it is acknowledged that there is no specific parking standard for HMOs, it is considered that one space per bedroom should be provided (in line with hostels / hotels) particularly given that the residents are not related and car sharing is therefore unlikely. In this location there is little suitable on-street parking available and any parking over spilling from this development would further add to the on-street parking pressures in the vicinity of the site, therefore the parking need should be accommodated within the site curtilage. I request that the applicant submits a plan of the parking area demonstrating an ability to park 14 vehicles in a satisfactory manner with sufficient space to manoeuvre. Environment Agency: We have no objection to the proposed development but please include the following conditions/informatives in any permission granted. Flood Risk Whilst the site lies notionally within Flood Zone 1, due to its very close proximity to the edge of Flood Zones 2 & 3, and in mind of the proposed change of use causing an increased flood risk vulnerability for the building we recommend the following condition and informative be attached to any permission granted: CONDITION Finished floor levels shall be set no lower than existing. REASON: To reduce the risk of flooding to the proposed development and future occupants. INFORMATIVE The Environment Agency recommends that in areas at risk of flooding consideration be given to the incorporation into the design and construction of the development of flood proofing measures. These include barriers on ground floor doors, window and access points and bringing in electrical services into the building at a high level so that plugs are located above possible flood levels. Guidance is available within the Department for Communities and Local Government publication ‘Improving the Flood Performance of New Buildings – Flood Resilient Construction, May 2007’ available at:- https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/flood-resilient-construction-of-new-buildings Further advice and guidance about preparing your property for flooding is available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/prepare-your-property-for-flooding 4 https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/improving-the-flood-resistance-of-domestic-and-small- business-properties-interim-guidance General guidance for preparing for a flood is available on our website at:- www.environment-agency.gov.uk/homeandleisure/floods/31644.aspx Pollution Prevention During Construction INFORMATIVE Safeguards should be implemented during the construction phase to minimise the risks of pollution from the development. Such safeguards should cover: - the use of plant and machinery - wheel washing and vehicle wash-down - oils/chemicals and materials - the use and routing of heavy plant and vehicles - the location and form of work and storage areas and compounds - the control and removal of spoil and wastes. Archaeology: No objections Although this site lies within an area of archaeological interest, there appears to be no new footprint of below ground impact. Therefore, on the evidence available to me at present, I consider it unlikely that significant archaeological remains would be disturbed by the proposed development and so have no further comment to make. Shrewton Parish Council: Object • Concerns over access to and from the property for the proposed number of vehicles on to the highway with a tight bend/junction. • Limited space to manoeuvre within the car park vicinity. • Number of parking spaces is quoted as 12, whereas the space available does not appear to permit this (number of proposed letting rooms is 14?) • With Shrewton being a village with very limited public transport it is anticipated occupants will each have a vehicle. The closest town is Amesbury approx. 7 miles away. Wiltshire Council Public Protection (South): No comment 13 Third Party Representations of Objection, summarised as follows: Loss of public house/village amenity/valued community asset With the right management, the premises could be (and has previously been well established as) a successful public house business Public house infrastructure has been removed Has rarely been open since 2014 as a public house Should be marketed with a realistic commercial price similar to price paid as a public house Impact on nearby parking, traffic congestion and highway hazards on highly trafficked dangerous bend with poor visibility/obstructed Pedestrian access missing Lack of outside amenity space Concerns regarding impact to adjoining property from noise and loss of privacy (side windows overlook garden) Original public house foul drainage infrastructure inadequate Surface water flooding from tarmaced car park The premises is already in C4 use No of occupants exceeds C4 use allowances Concerns re Health and Safety and Fire Regulations and need for license Discrepancies/errors and omissions in application form 5 Lack of waste storage facilities/space Querying neighbour consultations/timing of application Reference to previous applications and objections 1 Petition with 12 no. signatures ‘we, the undersigned agree to the change of use application’ CPRE: In spite of the Plume of Feathers being round the corner, this plus that one were the only 2 pubs remaining in this growing village, so conversion would result in loss of a valuable community resource. I visited several times through the occupancy of the last 3 publicans and it was evident the business was viable as a pub. There is also an issue about proposed extra parking on this difficult corner site.

    Bremhill Parish Neighbourhood Plan Strategic Environmental Assessment FINAL DRAFT - June 2016 PLANNING THE FUTURE OF THE PARISH 2016 - 2030 Wiltshire Council Strategic Environmental Assessment - Screening determination for the Bremhill Neighbourhood Plan December 2015 Contents 1. Introduction 2. Legislative requirements 3. The Bremhill Neighbourhood Plan 4. SEA Screening assessment 5. SEA Screening decision 2 1. Introduction 1.1. This document provides a screening determination of the need to carry out a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) of the Bremhill Neighbourhood Plan. 1.2. Wiltshire Council, as the ‘Responsible Authority’1 under the SEA Regulations2, is responsible for undertaking this screening process of the Bremhill Neighbourhood Plan. It will determine if the plan is likely to have significant environmental effects, and hence whether SEA is required. 1.3. This process has been carried out in accordance with the requirements of European Directive 2001/42/EC3, often known as the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Directive, which has been transposed into English law by the SEA Regulations. 2. Legislative requirements 2.1. The Localism Act 2011 requires neighbourhood plans to comply with EU legislation. The screening procedure outlined in this report meets the requirements of the SEA Directive and Regulations, as introduced in Section 1 of this document. 2.2. Regulation 5 of the SEA Regulations requires an environmental assessment of plans which: 1. Are prepared for agriculture, forestry, fisheries, energy, industry, transport, waste management, water management, telecommunications, tourism, town and country planning or land use (Regulation 5, para. (2)(a), and which set the framework for future development consent of projects listed in Annex I or II to Council Directive 85/337/EEC (EIA Directive) on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment (Regulation 5, para.

  • Bremhill Draft (April 2021).Pdf
    [Draft text by Dr Louise Ryland-Epton, completed April 2021 apart from the first section and minor checking to be undertaken when restrictions are lifted] BREMHILL LANDSCAPE, SETTLEMENT AND BUILDINGS [not yet completed] LANDOWNERSHIP Before the Reformation the manors of Bremhill, Foxham and Spirthill were in possession of the monks of Malmesbury abbey. The adjacent manor of Stanley belonged to the Cistercian order of Stanley abbey. At the dissolution of the monasteries, these estates were acquired by Sir Edward Bayntun. From the 16th to the 20th century, they were primarily held by non- resident lords. In the 20th century, these estates were sold off as separate farms and small holdings. Bremhill Manor King Athelstan gifted an estate at Bremhill to Malmesbury abbey c.935.1 However, the authenticity of the charter has been questioned.2 A confirmation of the abbey’s land and privileges by Edward in 1065 is also disputed.3 In 1086 the manor of Bremhill was held by the monks of Malmesbury abbey. It paid geld for 38 hides.4 The estate was surrendered to the crown in 1539 and acquired by Sir Edward Bayntun of Bromham (will pr. 1545), vice- chamberlain to five wives of Henry VIII, the following year.5 Sir Edward Bayntun was succeeded by his son, Andrew (d.1564).6 Andrew briefly lost control of his estates, after which financial difficulties led him to entail them to his brother, Edward (d.1593). However, the financial mismanagement continued, and on Andrew’s death in 1564, his brother was involved in a court action to secure the inheritance.

  • Wiltshire Housing Land Supply 2016
    Housing Land Supply Statement Base date: April 2016 Published: November 2016 Housing Land Supply Statement Base Date: April 2016 2 1.0 Policy Context – why is a land supply assessment required? 1.1 This Housing Land Supply Statement has been prepared using a base date of April 2016 and covers each Housing Market Area (HMA) in Wiltshire. It represents a snapshot as at the date of publication, and is produced annually as required by the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and accompanying Planning Practice Guidance (PPG). It represents an update from the previous Housing Land Supply Statement (September 2015) for the three HMAs in Wiltshire. This statement fully accords to the requirements and definitions of the NPPF and PPG as summarised below. Figure 1: The HMAs in Wiltshire1 1 Any development immediately adjacent to the urban area of Swindon but within Wiltshire’s administrative boundaries is not considered to contribute to the housing requirements of the North and West HMA. See paragraph 4.34 of the Wiltshire Core Strategy for clarification. 3 1.2 Within the NPPF, the Government has set out its guidance to deliver sustainable development. With regard to housing provision, paragraph 47 states that: “To boost significantly the supply of housing, local planning authorities (LPAs) should: ......identify and update annually a supply of specific deliverable sites sufficient to provide five years worth of housing against their housing requirements with an additional buffer of 5% (moved forward from later in the plan period) to ensure

    Old Charlcutt Reading Room Moravian Community in East Tytherton 3 A former 16th century Cottage The village reading room movement began in the mid-19th The current building which housed the reading room (left) and library century. This continued with the last rooms being assigned right up to the end of the First World War. Some of the institutions established throughout the country were targeted at the urban and middle classes, catering for a wide range of interests including literature, science, me- chanics and industry. However, the one with the most impact was that set up by The Hon. and Rev. Samuel Best around 1854. His aim was to help the agricultural labourer. He talked about the agricultural labourer saying that ‘the intellect of the shepherd of Salisbury Plain … is inferior in intelligence to the sharp witted Yorkshireman whose intellects have been exercised from his earlier boyhood in the great craft of life’. Whilst despairing, there was some element of truth in that young boys entering farm labour usually left school early, and the work was not intellectually taxing. However, this was a time when agriculture was going through a period of technical and mechanical The original 16th century cottage between the two chimneys improvement, and it was to be these very same workers who would be responsible for carrying the developments “We want the reading room as a means to an end, and that through. Libraries should have played an important role in end is the enfranchisement of the intellect of the labouring furthering the education of these labourers, however, the classes … If we can introduce an intellectual atmosphere into problem was that the workers’ cottages were dark and our village, if we can find some counterpoise for the public overcrowded and quite unsuitable for taking books home to house and beer shop and lastly, if we can bring together the read.
