The Neighbourhood Plan seeks to enhance the natural environment, support and encourage high quality housing, local jobs and improved retail and leisure facilities in a healthy, green and attractive town and series of villages. The Neighbourhood Plan has been drawn up by a Steering Group made up of Town and Parish Councillors and local residents, working under the guidance of Calne Town Council and Calne Without Parish Council which are the designated bodies for the plan area and provided the funding and support to enable the plan to go ahead. This Neighbourhood Plan has been reviewed by residents and key stakeholders through an extensive consultation process. Comments made during the early stages have been taken into account. All comments and suggestions received as part of consultation have been carefully considered and where viable and/or suitable the Neighbourhood Plan has been amended accordingly. The Neighbourhood Plan sets down a series of planning policies which, once agreed by means of a referendum, then form part of Wiltshire’s wider statutory development plan when it has been adopted, a process legally known as being ‘made’. The Neighbourhood Plan has been subject to an Independent Examination and will finally be subjected to a referendum requiring a majority “yes” vote of all those voting in the referendum for it to be accepted. In the event of a “yes” vote, Wiltshire Council will proceed to “make” the Neighbourhood Plan for the Town of Calne and the Parish of Calne Without. It is intended that the policies will be reviewed periodically to monitor the cumulative effects of the policies and, if necessary, make changes to keep them up to date and relevant. This will be undertaken in conjunction with the Planning Authority, Wiltshire Council. Councillor Tom Rounds Chair of the Calne Community Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group 6 Calne Community Neighbourhood Plan – Made February 2018 Acknowledgements Calne Community Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group would like to extend their thanks to all those who have been involved with the formation of the Neighbourhood Plan. In undergoing this process, we have seen first-hand the passion that our community has for the area and how it develops over the coming years. We would especially like to thank the general public who have actively participated throughout the process. Without all their contributions, the Calne Community Neighbourhood Plan would not exist and we would not have the opportunity to decide the town and village’s future as we do now. Additional thanks to: Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group Volunteers Lemon Gazelle Community Interest Company AECOM The Steering Group also gratefully acknowledges the support received from officers at Wiltshire Council. The Independent Examination was held by Andrew Matheson MSc MPA DipTP MRTPI FCIH an Independent Examiner appointed through the Neighbourhood Planning Independent Examiner Referral Service.

The Localism Act 2011 introduced a new type of Community Led Plan. Communities now have the right to produce a Neighbourhood Plan, setting out policies on the development and use of land. Developing a Neighbourhood Plan is a way for communities to play a greater role in determining the future of their area. 2. The Calne Community Neighbourhood Plan will form part of the statutory development plan once made. Wiltshire Council will determine planning applications within Calne and Calne Without in accordance with the Development Plan, which includes the Neighbourhood Plan, unless material considerations indicate otherwise (see section 38(6) of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004). 3. This Neighbourhood Plan is a true Community Led Plan. It has been prepared by the Town Council and Parish Council through a steering group made up of Town and Parish Councillors and local residents. It has been informed by public consultation with the local community. The options for the Plan and the Plan itself have been shaped by the results of the previous public consultation to ensure that the Neighbourhood Plan accurately reflects the aspirations of the community. Sustainability Appraisal 4. Early in the process the Steering Group commissioned URS (now AECOM) to undertake a Sustainability Appraisal (incorporating a Strategic Environmental Assessment) for the Neighbourhood Plan. SA is a mechanism for considering and communicating the impacts of an emerging plan, and potential alternatives in terms of key sustainability issues. The aim of SA is to inform and influence the plan-making process with a view to avoiding and mitigating negative impacts. Through this approach, the SA for the Neighbourhood Plan seeks to maximise the Neighbourhood Plan’s contribution to sustainable development. A Scoping Report for the SA was released for consultation in October 2014. 5. This Neighbourhood Plan is accompanied by an SA Report. The purpose of the SA Report is to: • Identify, describe and

    The Society of Friends in Wiltshire1 OR the work of George Fox in Wiltshire see Wilts Notes <§ Queries, ii, 125-9, and The Journal of George Fox, Fed. N. Penney (Cambridge Edn.). The subsequent history of the Quakers in the county can be traced from the MS. records of the various quarterly and monthly meetings, from the Friends' Book of Meetings published annually since 1789 and the List of Members of the Quarterly Meeting of Bristol and Somerset, published annually since 1874. For the MS. records see Jnl. of Friends' Hist. Soc., iv, 24. The records are now at Friends House, Euston Road, London. From the beginning of the eighteenth century, the Quakers' story is of a decline which was gradual until 1750 and thereafter very rapid. The Methodists and Moravians largely supplanted them. An interesting example of the change over from Quakerism to Methodism is to be found in Thomas R. Jones' The Departed Worthy (1857). This book tells the life story of Charles Maggs, a distinguished Melksham Methodist. When Maggs first went to Melksham just after 1800 he made the acquaintance of two Methodists named Abraham Shewring and Thomas Rutty. The family names of Shewring and Rutty both occur in Melksham Quaker records between 1700 and 1750. Even more interesting is the fact that Abraham Shewring was known as " the Quaker Methodist " and that Charles Maggs found that " the quiet manner in which the service was conducted scarcely suited his warm and earnest heart "* WILTSHIRE QUARTERLY MEETING, c. 1667-1785 By 1680 the number of Quaker meetings in Wilts had reached its maximum.
  • Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages

    Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages

    Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages Wiltshire is blessed with a fantastic variety of historic market towns and stunning picturesque villages, each one with something to offer. Here are a sample of Wiltshire’s beautiful market towns and villages. Amesbury Nestling within a loop of the River Avon alongside the A303, just 1½ miles from Stonehenge, historic Amesbury is a destination not to be missed. With recent evidence of a large settlement from 8820BC and a breath-taking Mesolithic collection, Amesbury History Centre will amaze visitors with its story of the town where history began. Bradford on Avon The unspoilt market town of Bradford on Avon offers a mix of delightful shops, restaurants, hotels and bed and breakfasts lining the narrow streets, not to mention a weekly market on Thursdays (8am-4pm). Still a natural focus at the centre of the town, the ancient bridge retains two of its 13th century arches and offers a fabulous view of the hillside above the town - dotted with the old weavers' cottages – and the river bank flanked by 19th century former cloth mills. Calne Calne evolved during the 18th and 19th centuries with the wool industry. Blending the old with the new, much of the original Calne is located along the River Marden where some of the historic buildings still remain. There is also the recently restored Castlefields Park with nature trails and cycle path easily accessible from the town centre. Castle Combe Set within the stunning Wiltshire Cotswolds, Castle Combe is a classically quaint English village. Often referred to as the ‘prettiest village in England’, it has even been featured regularly on the big screen – most recently in Hollywood blockbuster ‘The Wolfman’ and Stephen Spielberg’s ‘War Horse’.

Introduction 2. Legislative requirements 3. The Bremhill Neighbourhood Plan 4. SEA Screening assessment 5. SEA Screening decision 2 1. Introduction 1.1. This document provides a screening determination of the need to carry out a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) of the Bremhill Neighbourhood Plan. 1.2. Wiltshire Council, as the ‘Responsible Authority’1 under the SEA Regulations2, is responsible for undertaking this screening process of the Bremhill Neighbourhood Plan. It will determine if the plan is likely to have significant environmental effects, and hence whether SEA is required. 1.3. This process has been carried out in accordance with the requirements of European Directive 2001/42/EC3, often known as the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Directive, which has been transposed into English law by the SEA Regulations. 2. Legislative requirements 2.1. The Localism Act 2011 requires neighbourhood plans to comply with EU legislation. The screening procedure outlined in this report meets the requirements of the SEA Directive and Regulations, as introduced in Section 1 of this document. 2.2. Regulation 5 of the SEA Regulations requires an environmental assessment of plans which: 1. Are prepared for agriculture, forestry, fisheries, energy, industry, transport, waste management, water management, telecommunications, tourism, town and country planning or land use (Regulation 5, para. (2)(a), and which set the framework for future development consent of projects listed in Annex I or II to Council Directive 85/337/EEC (EIA Directive) on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment (Regulation 5, para.

    [Draft text by Dr Louise Ryland-Epton, completed April 2021 apart from the first section and minor checking to be undertaken when restrictions are lifted] BREMHILL LANDSCAPE, SETTLEMENT AND BUILDINGS [not yet completed] LANDOWNERSHIP Before the Reformation the manors of Bremhill, Foxham and Spirthill were in possession of the monks of Malmesbury abbey. The adjacent manor of Stanley belonged to the Cistercian order of Stanley abbey. At the dissolution of the monasteries, these estates were acquired by Sir Edward Bayntun. From the 16th to the 20th century, they were primarily held by non- resident lords. In the 20th century, these estates were sold off as separate farms and small holdings. Bremhill Manor King Athelstan gifted an estate at Bremhill to Malmesbury abbey c.935.1 However, the authenticity of the charter has been questioned.2 A confirmation of the abbey’s land and privileges by Edward in 1065 is also disputed.3 In 1086 the manor of Bremhill was held by the monks of Malmesbury abbey. It paid geld for 38 hides.4 The estate was surrendered to the crown in 1539 and acquired by Sir Edward Bayntun of Bromham (will pr. 1545), vice- chamberlain to five wives of Henry VIII, the following year.5 Sir Edward Bayntun was succeeded by his son, Andrew (d.1564).6 Andrew briefly lost control of his estates, after which financial difficulties led him to entail them to his brother, Edward (d.1593). However, the financial mismanagement continued, and on Andrew’s death in 1564, his brother was involved in a court action to secure the inheritance.
