  • Green Infrastructure Strategy Volume 2 Action Plan
    Green Infrastructure Strategy Volume 2 Action Plan Nottingham Derby Leicester 2010 CONTENTS Foreword Strategy Structure 1.0 INTRODUCTION 2.0 STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES: KEY ACTIONS 3.0 EXISTING AND PROPOSED SUB-REGIONAL GI INITIATIVES 4.0 MONITORING AND REVIEW TABLES 2.1 Strategic Objectives: Key Actions (June 2010) 3.1 Existing and Proposed Sub-Regional GI Initiatives APPENDICES A1 Abbreviations 2010 6Cs GI Strategy Volume 2: Action Plan FOREWORD The East Midlands region faces an unprecedented scale of growth over the coming years, especially in the 6C’s sub-region. In light of the scale and number of new houses that are planned, we recognised the need to develop a strategic approach to provision of Green Infrastructure (GI) as an environmental life support system for healthy communities and ecosystems. We wanted to maximise the potential of GI to bring about multifunctional holistic solutions to achieve wide ranging environmental, economic and social benefits, including climate change adaptation and mitigation. The 6C’s partnership have been working together with key players across the area for the last two years to produce this exciting and important Strategy. The challenge is now to deliver and manage GI along with the “grey infrastructure” needed to support sustainable communities in the sub-region. This Strategy represents a major step forward to achieve this by: • Giving the strategic spatial framework needed to safeguard, manage, and extend networks of GI in local planning documents; • Showing how the benefits of GI to economics, climate change, health, biodiversity and landscape can be realised; • Significantly reducing the amount of data required to produce local policy documents; and • Identifying funding sources and mechanisms for the delivery of GI and the priorities for investment.

Crooks, CC Officer to Contact Amelia Lees (Tel. No. 0116 305 7326) Email: [email protected] 156 PART B – MAIN REPORT Planning History 1. Cadeby Quarry is an established sand and gravel quarry situated between the villages of Cadeby and Newbold Verdon. Sand and gravel extraction has been ongoing at the site since 1964 under a number of planning permissions. In 1973 permission was granted for sand and gravel extraction from an area known as Becks Farm, north of Bosworth Road (permission no. 1973/4727/04). This area was worked in the 1970s and has been restored to lower level agricultural land. In 1988 a further permission was granted for sand and gravel extraction to the north of the Becks Farm area. 2. In August 2005, a substantial mineral permission was granted (planning application reference 2005/0893/04). This enabled sand and gravel extraction from three additional areas: the Northern Working Area (near Newbold Verdon), the Western Working Area (adjacent to the A447 east of Cadeby) and the site of the former Brascote House (a derelict farm building).

  • Lower and Middle Palaeolithic Leicestershire and Rutland: Progress and Potential by Anne Graf
    Leic.Arch. Sept 2002 11/10/02 7:54 AM Page 1 Lower and Middle Palaeolithic Leicestershire and Rutland: progress and potential by Anne Graf Drawing on archaeological and geological research, recent finds, museum collections and borehole evidence, this paper describes the changing local landscape and environment round the Cromerian-period Bytham river valley, possibly the major early entry route to Britain from Europe; the succeeding pro-glacial Lake Harrison and present-day post-glacial rivers; and highlights deposits with Palaeolithic archaeological potential. Palaeolithic tools of quartzite, comparable with other Midlands raw materials, and of andesitic and Charnian tuff may suggest occupation from around 600,000 BC, while flint tools suggest at least intermittent post-Anglian occupation, followed by probable abandonment from after 160,000 BC until possible Devensian re-occupation by Neanderthalers post- 60,000 BC. Introduction The last twenty years have seen very exciting results for the Palaeolithic period in Leicestershire and Rutland. This paper discusses these results, which are placed in the contexts both of the local landscape changes, and of the growing national understanding of key Palaeolithic issues. The paper aims to provide a summary of current knowledge of the Lower and Middle Palaeolithic occupants and their environments and landscapes in these two counties, and to highlight potential for further investigation. The local, and many national, sites, to which references can be found in the bibliography, are presented in the timechart in illus. 1, with their relative positions within current archaeological and geological divisions and phases. Throughout the timechart and the rest of this paper ‘thousand [years] ago’ will be abbreviated to ‘ka’, while the oxygen isotope stages now used for international date correlations (see below) will also be abbreviated, so that, for example, OIS-16 indicates oxygen isotope stage 16.
