Decisions relating to development often impinge considerably upon landscape, changing and altering it. It is therefore important that proposals are informed by an understanding of the landscape and what factors may be more, or less, appropriate. 1.1.2 North Norfolk District Council Core Strategy Policy EN2 requires that proposals for development should be informed by, and be sympathetic to, the distinctive character of an area. This Landscape Character Assessment provides the tools to help implement this policy and should be used alongside more detailed site specific appraisals of an area at the time of application. Structure of the Landscape Character Assessment 1.1.3 The document is arranged into different chapters with the main analysis of Landscape Character contained within the Character Types and Character Area chapters. The map in chapter 3 illustrates where the different Types and Areas are found. 1.1.4 For those users unfamiliar with Landscape Character Assessments, it may help to understand the reasoning behind how, and why, certain judgements are made within the North Norfolk Landscape Character Assessment by reading the Introduction section. This details the development of Landscape Character Assessment, an overview of the process involved, and how it can be utilised when making decisions about development within the context of landscape and the Core Strategy policies. A User Guide is included in section 3 of the document to enable those less familiar with Landscape Character Assessment to help interpret the Core Strategy policy and this document. 1.1.5 Chapter 2 describes the North Norfolk Landscape Character Assessment in detail, explaining the rationale, principles and processes behind the assessment. This should be referred to during use to gain the context of the study. Policy Context 1.1.6 The North Norfolk Core Strategy incorporating development control policies was adopted by the Council on 24 September 2008. This contains a series of polices which will be used to determine planning applications in the District. It covers the period to 2021 but can be reviewed within that period. 1.1.7 Core Strategy Policy EN2, Protection of Landscape and Settlement Character, requires that proposals should be informed by, and be sympathetic to, the distinctive character areas identified in the Landscape Character Assessment. This document is therefore an important piece of evidence that should be used to inform development proposals and consideration of planning applications. 1.1.8 Government policy (PPS1 - Delivering Sustainable Development) requires that development plans and decisions on planning applications contribute to the delivery of sustainable development, by: Seeking to achieve environmental, economic and social objectives together over time, addressing the causes and potential impacts of climate change, taking a spatial approach to planning, promoting high quality inclusive design, improving access for all, and ensuring that communities can contribute to the planning process. 4 North Norfolk Landscape Character Assessment 1 Landscape Character Assessment 1.1.9 This document has had regard to, and seeks to achieve, these principles. It was subject to sustainability appraisal which requires consideration of the range of effects (both positive and negative) on the environment, as well as the possible effects of development in terms of economic benefits and social well being. Decision Making and Conflicts 1.1.10 When considering development proposals or planning applications, judgements made through the LCA process will be important in informing the final decision. As stated in section 2 landscape character assessment is not a tool designed to resist changes that may influence the landscape. Rather it is an aid to decision making, a tool to help understand what the landscape is like today, how it came to be like that and how it may change in the future. Government policy in PPS1 requires that development plans and decisions on planning applications contribute to the delivery of sustainable development. In some circumstances a Planning Authority may decide in reaching a decision to give different weight to social, environmental, resource or economic considerations. Where this is the case, the reasons for doing so should be explicit and the consequences considered. Adverse environmental, social and economic impacts should be avoided, mitigated or compensated for. 1.1.11 Situations may arise where there is conflict between LCA conclusions and the social and economic objectives of the Core Strategy. In these instances the benefits and consequences should be carefully considered and, if development is to proceed, the information contained in the LCA should be used to minimise the impact of the development on the character of the landscape or steer it to a more appropriate location (in terms of landscape character) if possible. 1.1.12 Site specific appraisals, such as through individual landscape character and visual assessments, will be important in translating the principles contained in the LCA to individual proposals. Renewable Energy 1.1.13 Government policy on Renewable Energy (PPS22) requires that local development documents should contain policies which promote and encourage, rather than restrict, the development of renewable energy resources. The wider environmental and economic benefits of all proposals for renewable energy projects, whatever their scale, are material considerations that should be given significant weight in determining whether proposals should be granted planning permission. 1.1.14 The landscape and visual effects of particular renewable energy development will vary on a case by case basis according to the type of development, its location and the landscape setting of the proposed development. Some of these effects may be minimised through appropriate siting, design and landscaping schemes, depending on the size and type of development proposed.

  • Sheringham Coast Protection Scheme 2009

    Sheringham Coast Protection Scheme 2009

    Document 7 - Sheringham Coast Protection Scheme The challenge of protecting the coast at Sheringham Facing due north, Sheringham has a well documented history of coming under fierce attack by storm surge seas. Northerly winds blowing across the sea all the way from the North Pole can generate severe storm waves, which must be resisted by the natural and man-made defences of the town. If these defences fail then considerable damage will be sustained. The first line of defence is the natural sand beach and shingle bank to the rear. These are reinforced by the man-made defences comprising groynes, promenades and sea walls, which act as the last line of defence in extreme conditions. In the late 1980’s there was great concern about the integrity of the coastal defences at Sheringham. Waves and tides had gradually removed the once-healthy beach from this exposed stretch of the North Norfolk coast allowing storm waves to attack the man-made defences inflicting considerable damage. The sea walls, groynes and promenades (first built during the last century) have fixed the alignment of the frontage at Sheringham. Consequently, whilst the cliffs to the east and west of Sheringham have continued to erode naturally, the promenades now jut out by up to 70m seaward of the natural coast line. The exposed position of the beaches and defences means they are subject to an ever-increasing wave attack. Research has shown that most beaches in North Norfolk including Sheringham are eroding, getting shorter and steeper allowing deeper water inshore to attack the man made defences.

    NORFOLK THROUGH A LENS A guide to the Photographic Collections held by Norfolk Library & Information Service 2 NORFOLK THROUGH A LENS A guide to the Photographic Collections held by Norfolk Library & Information Service History and Background The systematic collecting of photographs of Norfolk really began in 1913 when the Norfolk Photographic Survey was formed, although there are many images in the collection which date from shortly after the invention of photography (during the 1840s) and a great deal which are late Victorian. In less than one year over a thousand photographs were deposited in Norwich Library and by the mid- 1990s the collection had expanded to 30,000 prints and a similar number of negatives. The devastating Norwich library fire of 1994 destroyed around 15,000 Norwich prints, some of which were early images. Fortunately, many of the most important images were copied before the fire and those copies have since been purchased and returned to the library holdings. In 1999 a very successful public appeal was launched to replace parts of the lost archive and expand the collection. Today the collection (which was based upon the survey) contains a huge variety of material from amateur and informal work to commercial pictures. This includes newspaper reportage, portraiture, building and landscape surveys, tourism and advertising. There is work by the pioneers of photography in the region; there are collections by talented and dedicated amateurs as well as professional art photographers and early female practitioners such as Olive Edis, Viola Grimes and Edith Flowerdew. More recent images of Norfolk life are now beginning to filter in, such as a village survey of Ashwellthorpe by Richard Tilbrook from 1977, groups of Norwich punks and Norfolk fairs from the 1980s by Paul Harley and re-development images post 1990s.

  • Tributary Farmland

    Tributary Farmland

    NORFOLK COAST COAST AONB AONB – Integrated – Integrated Landscape Landscape Guidance Guidance tributary farmland 1 tributary farmland Integrated landscape character MAP 23a - Landscape Character Type - Tributary Farmland Key Plan Tributary Farmland is typically an expansive landscape of open, gently rolling farmland. To the west, the farmland is underlain by deep drifts of Boulder Clay, which smother the underlying Chalk, but to the east of Sheringham, the soils of the Tributary Farmland have developed from sandier deposits, formed on drifts of brown sandy Norwich Brickearth underlain by the shelly sands and gravels of the Norwich Crag formation. Historically the area has been subdivided into relatively small tenanted and owner-occupied landholdings, based loosely around villages and this historic landownership pattern is reflected in the rather unregimented pattern of relatively small, irregularly shaped fields, loosely structured settlements and many scattered, isolated farmsteads and cottages. The majority of the landscape was not farmed as open fields, but was enclosed in a piecemeal fashion, over centuries. The Tributary Farmland has a less regulated and tightly structured landscape pattern than areas of farmland where Parliamentary Enclosure was more dominant, but over the years, the differences have become less marked as hedgerow removal and infill development within villages has led to larger, more geometric fields and a more nucleated settlement form. Arable field predominate, with areas of grassland in the smaller fields which are typically found on the fringes of settlements and individual rural properties. These fields often retain a strong sense of enclosure and echo the historic landscape pattern of a small-scale, more organic layout of fields, hedgerows and rural buildings.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ilBSTRAGT The Cromer Moraine forms a distinctive geographical region near the coast of the northern part of the County of Norfolk. A pro­ nounced characteristic of this region is the vridespread cover of heatb-land, far less extensive than in former times. This heathland appears in its turn to have developed from an original woodland cover which was destroyed by the depredations of man and his domesticated animals . It has been necessary first to delimit the region as accurately as possible and this has been accomplished by means of a detailed study of local topography and of well-sections. The earliest evidence of the location of heathland comes from tlie Domesday Survey and this has been confirmed by references to heathland in various other documents dovm to 1750. By the middle of the eighteenth century the new developments in agriculture^ or ’Norfolk Husbandry’ as it was called, became widely known and practised, resulting in this region in a greatly accelerated reclama­ tion of heathland; so that by the time of the Tithe Survey (183S-42) less than a hundred years later over 4000 acres of heath had been reclaimed.

    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office

    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.
