The purpose of the ‘Call for Sites’ was to establish what land is potentially available in the Borough for the development of housing. The land that was submitted would form an important part of the evidence base that underpins the spatial pattern of development included in the Local Plan. The Local Plan is required to identify 17,500 houses required by MBC stipulated by Government by 2031. The Government also requires an additional 7,500 houses to be built by 2035. If MBC did not produce a Local Plan the Government would instruct external contractors to survey the area and identify areas for development for which MBC would not be able to object. 5. Sites Identified in Bearsted Parish Cllr Tribley explained that on the 17th December 2019, she, Councillor Ash and Cllr Hannington met with MBC to lodge BPC’s preliminary objections in respect of sites identified within Bearsted in the MBC Local Plan ‘Call for Sites’ document.

  • Landscape Assessment of Kent 2004
    CHILHAM: STOUR VALLEY Location map: CHILHAMCHARACTER AREA DESCRIPTION North of Bilting, the Stour Valley becomes increasingly enclosed. The rolling sides of the valley support large arable fields in the east, while sweeps of parkland belonging to Godmersham Park and Chilham Castle cover most of the western slopes. On either side of the valley, dense woodland dominate the skyline and a number of substantial shaws and plantations on the lower slopes reflect the importance of game cover in this area. On the valley bottom, the river is picked out in places by waterside alders and occasional willows. The railway line is obscured for much of its length by trees. STOUR VALLEY Chilham lies within the larger character area of the Stour Valley within the Kent Downs AONB. The Great Stour is the most easterly of the three rivers cutting through the Downs. Like the Darent and the Medway, it too provided an early access route into the heart of Kent and formed an ancient focus for settlement. Today the Stour Valley is highly valued for the quality of its landscape, especially by the considerable numbers of walkers who follow the Stour Valley Walk or the North Downs Way National Trail. Despite its proximity to both Canterbury and Ashford, the Stour Valley retains a strong rural identity. Enclosed by steep scarps on both sides, with dense woodlands on the upper slopes, the valley is dominated by intensively farmed arable fields interspersed by broad sweeps of mature parkland. Unusually, there are no electricity pylons cluttering the views across the valley. North of Bilting, the river flows through a narrow, pastoral floodplain, dotted with trees such as willow and alder and drained by small ditches.

  • Bearsted Conservation Areas Appraisal & Management Plan
    Bearsted Conservation Areas Appraisal & Management Plan Maidstone Borough Council Adopted 22 March 2010 1 Contents Conservation Areas Appraisal: I Introduction 3 II Historical Development 5 III Character Appraisal: Bearsted 15 IV Character Appraisal: Bearsted Holy Cross 57 V Conclusions 71 Conservation Areas Management Plan: I Introduction 74 II Policy Background 74 III Proposed Boundary Changes 75 IV Principles for Development Control 83 V Enhancement Proposals 86 VI Review and Practice Procedures 89 VII Action Plan Summary 89 2 BEARSTED CONSERVATION AREAS APPRAISAL I Introduction The Definition, Purpose and Effect of Conservation Areas The concept of conservation areas was first brought into being by the Civic Amenities Act of 1967, but the relevant legislation now is the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act of 1990. This act places a duty on local authorities to designate conservation areas where appropriate and defines a conservation area as “an area of architectural or historic interest the character and appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance”. Designation as a conservation area brings additional powers to the local authority. Briefly these include the control of demolition of unlisted buildings, more restricted permitted development rights for single dwelling houses and a notification system relating to works to trees not covered by a tree preservation order. In addition to these enhanced powers, the local authority is also required when dealing with applications for planning permission to have special regard to the question of whether or not the proposed development would either preserve or enhance the special character of the conservation area. There is a presumption that developments which would not preserve or enhance this special character should be refused planning permission.
