The boundary was subsequently amended to exclude Oratory Gardens and then altered in 2000 to exclude a section of Archway Road. These changes ensure that the Conservation Area includes only land that exhibits an identifiable and consistent character and appearance. The current boundary of the Conservation Area is shown on the plan opposite. This document identifies: z The policies from the adopted Poole Local Plan, First Alteration, Adopted March 2004 (as amended by Secretary of State direction September 2007) relevant to the conservation area; z The factors that influence and form the character and appearance of the area; z A set of codes to help guide new development and manage change in a way which preserves the character of the area; z Sub-areas, that preserve the general character common to Branksome Park while retaining their own distinctive environment. This document is Supplementary Planning Guidance to the Poole Local Plan (2004) and in particular is intended to support Policy BE15 by: z identifying the factors that influence the character and appearance of the conservation area; z giving guidance on how developments can preserve or enhance this character. N.B. The omission of reference to any particular building, feature or space does not imply that it makes no contribution to the character or appearance of the conservation area. 4 A35 Canford Cliffs Rd Branksome Chine Spencer Road Beach Road Map 1: Shows the Conservation Area boundary and its context 5 1.2 Definition of Special Interest “I shan’t tell you where all the lovely The special interest of Branksome Park is derived places are: I want from a number of characteristics which combine them all to myself.

The buildings reflect the various architectural fashions of the time. Many houses are oriented at quirky angles within their plots which is a significant local characteristic. While most buildings are unlisted many are attractive homes and their architecture enhances the appearance of the area. 6 1.3 Policies in the Poole Local Plan The Poole Local Plan First Alteration (Adopted March 2004, as amended by Secretary of State Direction, September 2007) contains planning policies to guide and control development within the Borough, a number of which are relevant to the Branksome Park Conservation Area. The following policies are of particular importance: z BE1 sets out general design criteria for all areas, and the associated Supplementary Planning Guidance ‘A Design Code’. z BE2 requires that landscaping be identified as an integral part of development proposals and should be maintained or enhanced. Supplementary Planning Guidance ‘The Landscape and Natural Environment Design Code’ is associated with this policy. z BE16 requires that proposals for development or demolition preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the area in a conservation area. z BE17 indicates that demolition of buildings of local importance will only be allowed if this is the only means of preserving or enhancing the character or appearance of the area in a conservation area. z BE23 seeks to ensure that residential development is limited to single household detached dwellings on sites of a size consistent with that existing in the area; z BE24 highlights the importance of bulk, appearance, height, massing, design, proximity to boundaries, effect upon trees, setting, removal of hedgerows along boundaries and hard surfacing. z NE27 requires that significant trees on development sites be replaced or, if retained, they be appropriately protected. z NE28 requires that trees covered by Tree Preservation Orders be retained and protected or, exceptionally if they are removed, be replaced. z L1 seeks to ensure that there is no loss of public open space. z H10 clarifies that plots in Branksome Park are in a low density housing policy area and should not be less than 0.3 hectares (¾ of an acre). 7 1.4 Location Branksome Park is sited in the southeast of Poole, close to the boundary of the town with Bournemouth. Whilst it is situated within the urban area, Branksome Park exhibits a character far different from the surrounding development and as such it is clearly identifiable as a defined area. The Conservation Area covers 143 hectares but only has about 300 buildings (see aerial photograph). 8 Map 2: Shows the location of Branksome Park Conservation Area with the Borough of Poole. 1.5 Origins of development Prior to 1853 Branksome Park was undeveloped heath, scrub and pine woodland, and part of the 300 hectare Branksome Estate owned by Miss Bruce. In 1853 Charles William Packe purchased part of the estate and developed his own mansion, Branksome Tower (off Westminster Road) and four lodges.

    Impact Report 2019/20 Summary of Surviving Winter Appeal and Grant Distribution Our public appeal and corresponding fund supported older and vulnerable people in fuel poverty. Driven by the shocking statistics that there are over 730 deaths every winter *, the Foundation encourages people in receipt of Winter Fuel Payment to consider re-cycling it and donating to help someone in need in Dorset. During the winter of 2019/20 Dorset Community Foundation raised £85,980 from 359 donors helping 238 local residents. Many older people are at risk if they cannot afford to adequately heat their homes, particularly if they have health conditions that are exacerbated by the cold. “I live alone am disabled due to accident and suffer lasting effects from cancer. My house is cold due to two old storage heaters. I have no money to improve my heating or lifestyle, the cold makes my disability worse. The grant will help me deal with the added costs of trying to keep warm this winter.” The grants enable older and vulnerable residents to switch on their heating and pay their fuel bills without worrying about the cost of fuel, which they might not be abe to afford. “The grant will allow me to keep heating on more than once every two days and significantly reduce the adverse impact the cold has on my health. I will also be able to cook more hot meals.” To award grants across Dorset, the Foundation worked with Citizens Advice in Dorset (CAID) and the Centre for Sustainable Energy. Both organisations provided further fuel poverty support to the grant recipients.
