    Orcop Neighbourhood Development Plan Residents’ questionnaire Comment listings DJN Planning Limited April 2020 For Orcop Parish Council Introduction This document lists the comments made by respondents to the residents’ survey which was undertaken to inform the Orcop Neighbourhood Development Plan in January 2020. A number of the survey questions invited free-write comments or suggestions on aspects of land use and development. The resultant responses are set out in the following tables, taking each question in turn. Comments are repeated verbatim and place names are as given. The comments have been analysed to identify the main themes and issues raised, and the findings of this work are set out in the Results Report. Completed questionnaires have been numbered to aid analysis, and these numbers are given here. Questionnaires remain anonymous. Comments were inputted by the Clerk to Orcop Parish Council, Mark Hearne. April 2020 Orcop Neighbourhood Development Plan · Survey comment listings 1 Living in Orcop Parish Question 1: From the list below what are the top 5 things you value most about living in the Parish? Comments given in response to ‘other’ option. Questionnaire Comment Ref 1 For a rural area, good transport links (rail, motorway) 10` The Fountain Pub 17 I can’t value well maintained roads because they’re not! We have to be careful about “conserving” – some change and development can be positive 21 So-called “open countryside”. Not in a high-density suburban estate of the kind emerging within the triangle at Orcop Hill. A less polluting atmosphere than areas which are more urban 28 I find this question quire ambiguous.

  • Landscape Character Assessment Supplementary Planning Guidance
    LANDSCAPE CHARACTER ASSESSMENT Supplementary Planning Guidance 2004 Updated 2009 Landscape Character Assessment ~ SPG 2004 ~ updated 2009 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Herefordshire’s Landscape Character Assessment was researched, co-ordinated, written and updated by Jane Patton, my predecessor, during the period 1999 – 2006. She received invaluable support, encouragement and practical help from a number of people, in particular from Chris Bray and Kay Adams of Worcestershire County Council. Kay Adams and Jonathan Porter (Countryscape consultancy) undertook the initial survey work for Herefordshire, while Bill Jackson (Estate Agent), provided them with offi ce accommodation in Leominster. Steven Warnock, the regional consultant for the production of Landscape Character Assessments, provided expert advice. Advice and encouragement also came from other Local Authorities with whom he was working, notably Dr. Stephen Potter in Staffordshire, Jerry Birbeck in Warwickshire and Rob Pinsent from Shropshire. Dr. Delia Hooke provided much of the initial historical/cultural survey information and analysis, while Paul White from Herefordshire Archaeology later gave valuable insights from his Historic Landscape Characterisation. Penny Oliver of the CPRE (Council for the Protection of Rural England) provided extra data and analysis, particularly regarding woodland cover. Dr. Peter Oliver from the Herefordshire and Worcestershire Earth Heritage Trust checked and re-wrote the geological and soil entries. Anthea Bryan from the Herefordshire Nature Trust provided data and Geoff Gwatkin supplied copies of the county tithe maps. Bridgit Symons, (working for Countryscape consultancy at the time, and who is currently Planning Ecologist for Herefordshire Council), did the ecological fi eldwork required and provided ecological data and analysis. Steve Dring and Gill Eyre undertook the site visits needed to verify information in the Landscape Character Assessment.

Unfortunately, the big pub-owning companies (known as ‘PubCos’) have been pushing many of their pub tenants around for years now. You only have to glance at the on-line blogs in the trade to see how many unhappy PubCo tenants there are out there. PubCo tenants’ businesses are regu- larly characterised by chronic underinvestment in the pub’s fabric; high rents; high wholesale drink prices, and a restricted choice of beers (Oh No, not Doom Bar again!). This sees pubs ers had left the pub on its knees by 2012. No- close, as different tenants come, fail and one could make the pub work for owners, leave. There can’t be a high street in the UK Punch Taverns. Ultimately Punch decided to that hasn’t had a PubCo pub boarded up wait- sell-up. Bravo! the locals thought.

  • Merry Wood Herefordshire Gorgeous Little Semi-Natural Ancient Woodland in Rolling Herefordshire Countryside, Very Easy to Access and Yet Peaceful and Quiet
    Merry Wood Herefordshire Gorgeous little semi-natural ancient woodland in rolling Herefordshire countryside, very easy to access and yet peaceful and quiet. Details Local manager Price: £49,000 Freehold Tamsin and Matt Brown Location: Orcop, Hereford, Herefordshire 07950 379533 or 07956 256101 Size: 2¾ acres for sale [email protected] OS Landranger: OS No 161 Grid ref: SO 448 268 Nearest post code: HR2 8EU Description This is a lovely wood which ticks so many boxes for the small woodland owner or someone interested in family forestry. It has been designated as ancient semi natural woodland which is evident in the wonderful variety of long established broadleaf trees thriving here, a good defence against the inroads of any particular tree disease. In addition, it's reasonably level throughout and the access is fantastically easy. There is a short stretch of stream marking its northern boundary. There are pretty views out over surrounding fields and copses to the west, while it borders more woodland to the north, across the stream. The purchasers of the woodland will be asked to enter into a covenant to ensure the quiet and peaceful enjoyment of adjoining woodlands and meadows. Oak standards are present throughout Merry Wood and the larger woodland Pokes Hole, along with birch, some sweet chestnut, ash and the occasional conifer. At understory level, alder and hazel are present and both have been coppiced in the past - Coppice rotation is an underused method of woodland management these days but it's very beneficial to the biodiversity of the woodland by allowing regulated light through to the forest floor, encouraging greater variety of flora to flourish, which encourages greater fauna to follow.

This year’s report has been something of a headache for our contributors, and particularly for Tony Eveleigh and John Pullen who coordinate the Sys - tematic List of sightings. In its wisdom, the British Ornithological Union has made several major changes to the list – for instance, you may be sur - prised to note that the Long-Tailed Tit is no longer a tit. It’s officially in with the warblers. The list has always changed a bit over the years, as ornithologists and sci - entists have found different relationships between the species - but then they discovered DNA. The discovery has affected everything from paternity suits to crime de - tection; now it is altering the taxonomy of birds. The effect has been quite drastic and the list will probably change more frequently in the future.
