  • Housing Chapter Alteration 2006
    BOROUGH OF BARROW-IN-FURNESS LOCAL PLAN REVIEW 1996-2006 HOUSING CHAPTER ALTERATION 2006 BOROUGH OF BARROW-IN-FURNESS LOCAL PLAN REVIEW 1996-2006 HOUSING CHAPTER ALTERATION 2006 Adopted 2 June 2006 Director of Regeneration Barrow-in-Furness Borough Council Town Hall Duke Street Barrow in Furness Cumbria LA14 2LD Contact: Local Development Framework Officer (01229) 894249 Email: [email protected] FOREWORD The Borough of Barrow-in-Furness Local Plan Review (1996-2006) is a statutory document prepared by the Borough Council to set out its policies guiding the development and use of land for the period up to 2006. Adopted, together with the County’s Minerals and Waste Local Plan and the Cumbria and Lake District Joint Structure Plan and the Regional Spatial Strategy and Local Development Documents of the new Local Development Framework, these form the statutory Development Plan for the area. There are also national guidelines in relation to planning issues that the Local Plan must interpret into local policy. At the time the plan was being written, the Government were in the process of revising the national planning guidance in relation to housing, ‘Planning Policy Guidance Note 3’. To keep the plan up to date the Borough Council resolved to alter the Housing Chapter to bring it up to date with this guidance. As a result of the provisions of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, the Local Plan Review, and the Housing Chapter Alteration once adopted, will be saved for the period set out below, or until they are revoked or replaced by the documents in the Local Development Framework.

Site Overview: Walney Island is composed of glacial deposits overlaying a rock platform; cliffs along the open coast are cut into these glacial sand and gravels, which provide little resistance to erosion. The two shorelines of Walney Island experience very different exposure conditions; the west coast is exposed to the Irish Sea whilst, in contrast, the east coast is sheltered from wave action. At either end of the Island, large sand and shingle spits extend towards the Duddon Estuary to the north and Morecambe Bay to the south.

  • 11C13: Bardsea to Piel Island
    Cumbria Coastal Strategy Technical Appraisal Report for Policy Area 11c13 Bardsea to Piel Island (Technical report by Jacobs) CUMBRIA COASTAL STRATEGY - POLICY AREA 11C13 BARDSEA TO PIEL ISLAND Policy area: 11c13 Bardsea to Piel Island Figure 1 Sub Cell 11c Arnside to Hodbarrow Point Location Plan of policy units. Baseline mapping © Ordnance Survey: licence number 100026791. 1 CUMBRIA COASTAL STRATEGY - POLICY AREA 11C13 BARDSEA TO PIEL ISLAND 1 Introduction 1.1 Location and site description Policy units: 11c13.1 Bardsea to Newbiggin 11c13.2 Newbiggin to Rampside (priority unit) 11c13.3 Rampside (priority unit) 11c13.4 Roa Island (priority unit) 11c13.5 Piel Island Responsibilities: South Lakeland District Council Barrow Borough Council Cumbria County Council Highways England (Historical Railway Estate) Cumbria Wildlife Trust Private landowners Location: The policy area falls within Sub cell 11c: (part) Arnside to Hodbarrow Point and covers the northern coast of Morecambe Bay between the Leven Estuary and Walney Island. Site overview: There are both coastal flood and erosion risks to this policy area, with the key risk being the potential consequences for the long term viability of the main coastal link road, A5087, as well as isolated properties. This policy area comprises the south easterly facing coastline of Morecambe Bay and is characterised by low till (boulder clay) cliffs and outcrops of limestone interspersed by areas of low lying land. Erosion of this material has resulted in the formation of localised cobble scars within the intertidal and sub tidal zones as on many other areas of the Cumbrian coast. The orientation of the frontage, combined with extensive intertidal banks of Morecambe Bay and the protection provided by Walney Island, results in the shoreline being relatively sheltered from wave action compared to the west coast of Cumbria.

  • Barrow-In-Furness Borough Council Election Results 1973-2011
    Barrow-In-Furness Borough Council Election Results 1973-2011 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.
