West Lothian Local Development Plan - Draft Main Issues Report West Lothian Local Development Plan - Draft Main Issues Report _____________________________________________________________________ Chapter 5.0 Settlement Statements The settlement statements have been informed by the West Lothian Housing Land Audit 2012 and reflect the capacity of development sites and the completion figures achieved at 31.03.2012. NB All site submissions have been assessed on the basis of preferred use as submitted by the proposer. Where sites have been identified by the council as “not preferred” this has included consideration of alternative uses. 1 ADDIEWELL & LOGANLEA Addiewell and Loganlea developed from the 1860s in association with the coal and shale oil industries which operated until the 1950s. Once separate communities they are now closely attached to form, in effect, a single community. Much of the housing is social housing dating from the 1930s – 1960s. The town is served by a railway station and is the location of HM Prison Addiewell. There are few employment opportunities in the village. It is West Lothian’s most deprived community. Population in 2012: 1,342 (GROS estimate) Issues: limited employment opportunities, high level of social deprivation. Infrastructure considerations: although served by a railway station there are few amenities within the village. There are two primary schools (Addiewell and St Thomas). There is no secondary school. Addiewell falls within the catchment areas of West Calder High School and St Kentigern’s High School, Blackburn. Spatial strategy considerations: one of West Lothian’s western communities where development in principle is supported by the Strategic Development Plan. Priorities: review use of the school grounds and provide community open space facilities; environmental improvement of Meadowhead Green; promote path links to the wider path network, surrounding countryside and to the sports and open space resources at Loganlea; review settlement envelope. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS There are no new proposals proposed for this settlement.

Settlement Map 8 3 ARMADALE Armadale developed in the 1790s on one of the great toll roads between Edinburgh and Glasgow and largely remained a hamlet of farm- workers and tradesmen until the arrival of mining industries of coal, fireclay, ironstone and limestone. Foundries, fireclay works and brick making also developed. The miners’ rows were gradually replaced by council houses from the 1920s onwards. The rail station re-opened in 2010. The only remains of industrial activity are found principally to the south of the town. In recent years the town has seen significant allocations for new development and is earmarked for substantial housing development at the Armadale Core Development Area. Population in 2012: 11,230 (GROS estimate) Issues for settlement: promote and maintain the employment base, tackle areas of social deprivation; local parks require investment; new open space is required to accommodate recent and ongoing housing development; upgrading of footpath network; capacity issues at catchment schools. Infrastructure considerations: served by three primary schools (Armadale, Eastertoun and St Anthony’s) and at secondary school level Armadale Academy and St Kentigern’s High School, Blackburn. A new primary school is being considered as part of the Armadale Core Development Area in addition to school extensions. The new school will result in changes to catchment areas. Spatial strategy considerations: the availability of infrastructure, strategic location, and existing facilities makes the town an attractive option for development; continue to promote delivery of the Armadale Core Development Area and delivery of associated infrastructure requirements. Priorities: delivery of infrastructure to support housing development, support for local employment opportunities; environmental improvements and provision of open space to support community growth; review settlement envelope.

The A89 passes through the centre of the town. Originally an 18th century weaving and market village, Bathgate developed from the 1840s and 1850s as a result of the growth of the railways and large scale coal mining. In 1851 the world’s first commercial oil works opened, leading to the Scottish shale oil industry. Other heavy industries followed. With the post-war decline of heavy industries, new jobs were found at BMC (later British Leyland), however, the town fell victim to the recession of the 1980s to recover in the 1990s assisted by Motorola and private house building encouraged by the re-opening of the railway to Edinburgh and Glasgow. Motorola closed in April 2001. The railway line and a concentration of industrial and commercial sites have driven the expansion of Bathgate to the east and led to its coalescence with Boghall. There has also been expansion to the southwest and recent redevelopment of the former British Leyland site to the south of the town at Wester Inch for residential use. Population in 2012: 20,289 (GROS estimate) Issues for settlement: promote and maintain the employment base, tackle areas of social deprivation; education capacity issues. Infrastructure considerations: served by six primary schools - Balbardie, Boghall, Simpson, Windyknowe, St Columba’s and St Mary’s and at secondary school level by Bathgate Academy, Armadale Academy and St Kentigern’s, Blackburn. Spatial strategy considerations: the availability of infrastructure, strategic location, and existing facilities makes the town an attractive option for development. Priorities: address education capacity issues; improve park and playing field provision; review settlement envelope.

  • Binny Craig, an Igneous Outcrop Almost Central to the Farm, Rises to 219 Metres
    SRUC Oatridge Farm and Campus Location and access Oatridge is part of the specialist landbased college Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC) offering a wide range of courses including agriculture, animal care, engineering, environment and conservation, equine studies, horticulture, and landscaping. At its centre is Oatridge Farm, which includes commercially run beef, sheep, pig and arable enterprises. The farm is used for practical tuition, and as a resource for the provision of real time physical, financial and technical data. Oatridge Farm extends to 289 hectares. Originally comprising three steadings, Oatridge, East Broadlaw and Hanging Side, all activities are now centred on Oatridge. Landscape The majority of the farm lies at a height of between 135 and 180 metres above sea level, whilst Binny Craig, an igneous outcrop almost central to the farm, rises to 219 metres. The soils within the college boundaries are complex and varied, deriving from a series of exposed soft Carboniferous mudstones and sandstones, giving rise to sandy clay loams, which have impermeable subsoils requiring artificial drainage. N Rainfall averages 940 mm (37 ins) per annum and the growing o temperature of 6 C is not generally reached until late April. Public access to Binny Craig is by a footpath from the minor As described elsewhere in the leaflet, the landforms seen road near East Broadwood [NT 043 731]. within the LGS and the surrounding area have been shaped With prior permission, access may also be gained via SRUC largely by glaciation, with crag-and-tail forms dominating the Oatridge Campus (Ecclesmachan, EH52 6HN; tel 01506 landscape, with an obvious west to east grain to the land.
