Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council
DONCASTER METROPOLITAN BOROUGH COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE - 19th July 2011 Application 03 Application 11/00665/COU Application 1st June 2011 Number: Expiry Date: Application Change of Use Type: Proposal Change of use of land to domestic curtilage including retention of portal Description: framed outbuilding. At: 188 Cadeby Road Sprotbrough Doncaster South Yorkshire For: Mr D Perry Third Party 0 Parish: Sprotbrough And Cusworth Reps: Parish Council Ward: Sprotbrough Author of Report Gareth Stent MAIN RECOMMENDATION: GRANT 1.0 Reason for Report 1.1 The application is being presented to committee as it represents a departure from the Unitary Development Plan. Also, an almost identical application was considered by planning committee in 2009 for the adjacent property (No.190), who also sought to include land within its curtilage. 2.0 Proposal and Background 2.1 This application seeks permission to retain use of land as residential curtilage, and to retain a portal framed building at 188 Cadeby Road Sprotbrough. Both properties i.e. No.188 and No.190 Cadeby Road have been the subject of various enforcement enquires/action over the past few years with No.190 regularising land beyond its curtiliage for use as garden back in 2009. Since then, officers have been working with the owners of No.188 to do the same. This resulted in a certificate of lawfulness application being submitted in 2010 under reference 10/01619/CPE, to certify the use of the land as garden. This however, was refused as the evidence within the application was inconclusive. 2.2 Following the refusal, the applicant was advised to submit an application to retain the use of the land and to retain the building. -

New-Build Housing, Mobility and the Life Course a Study of Housing-Driven Economic Growth Strategy in Doncaster
New-build housing, mobility and the life course A study of housing-driven economic growth strategy in Doncaster By: Amy Clare Beckett A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Social Sciences Department of Urban Studies and Planning 2018 Supervised by Dr Nicola Dempsey and Professor Ed Ferrari Abstract By implementing housing strategies which focus improving provision for more affluent groups, policymakers may hope to alter the demographic mix of a locality with the aim of stimulating economic growth to compete more effectively in a globalised world. This thesis examines the potential role of high-end new-build housing as part of a ‘bootstraps’ (Eisenschitz and Gough, 1993) local economic growth strategy in the context of ‘austerity urbanism’ (Peck, 2012). To explore these issues, the thesis employs a mixed-method, biographical approach to examine inward and internal migration into new-build homes in Doncaster, a post-industrial metropolitan borough in South Yorkshire. In doing so, the research provides a story of Doncaster, its neighbourhoods and its residents, exploring the ways in which individual, shared and collective narratives combine to influence household needs and preferences, and ultimately mobility outcomes. The empirical findings of this research suggest that targeted high-end new-build housing is insufficient as a policy mechanism to attract the substantial inward migration of middle-to-high income groups in Doncaster. Here, the potential economic benefit associated with a housing-based urban competition strategy appears not to have been met in empirical outcomes. In addition, whilst new-build housing provided a welcome addition to local market for more affluent existing residents and newcomers, findings suggest a policy focus on more affluent groups has the potential to exacerbate local spatial inequalities and threaten social cohesion by creating new opportunities for the segregation of more affluent groups. -

So it was fitting that some of the Friends of New Lane Park came along to a ‘turf lifting’ ceremony to mark the start of construction work that will see Sprotbrough’s first natural play facility completed - weather permitting - by the end of March this year. Jonny, Jamie and Coun Woodhouse with Copley pupils Friends of New Lane Park Group Chair Jonny Madin said “It’s fantastic that we are on the verge of having our own state of the art play area in Sprotbrough. It should be a great place for the whole family to enjoy quality time together. It’s the culmination Happy smiles at the launch of three years of hard work by a group of resourceful, determined and focused individuals; supported by what I’m proud to say They were joined by pupils from Copley Junior School, who exists in Sprotbrough, the very strong community spirit.” helped develop some of the ideas for the project and couldn’t hide their excitement when they saw the bulldozer had moved Ironically, after all the hard work he has put into the scheme Mr on to the site to take down the old play area.
