  • Barton Stacey Conservation Area Character Appraisal 1 Introduction
    Barton Stacey Conservation Area Character Appraisal 1 Introduction Conservation Areas A conservation area is an area designated by the local planning authority as one of special architectural or historic interest. Once designated, the local authority has a duty1 to ensure that the character of a conservation area is preserved or enhanced, particularly when considering applications for development. Purpose of Character Appraisals Local authorities are encouraged to prepare Character Appraisals, providing detailed assessments of their conservation areas. Appraisals enable the local authority to understand the elements that give each area its distinct and unique character, identifying special qualities and highlighting features of particular signifi cance. Those elements include: historic development; landscape and topography; style, type and form of the buildings, and the spaces between buildings; materials, textures, colours and detailing; and less tangible aspects, such as sounds and smells, which can contribute to the special character of the area. A Character Appraisal is intended as an overview, providing a framework within which individual planning applications can be assessed. It includes text, an appraisal plan and photographs. It is not realistic to refer to every building or feature within a conservation area – but the omission of any part does not mean that it is without signifi cance. 1 Under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. 2 2 The Barton Stacey Conservation Area Context Barton Stacey Conservation Area was originally designated on 25th April 1984 in recognition of its special architectural and historic interest. Local authorities have a duty to periodically review their conservation areas to ensure that they are still relevant and that boundaries are logical and could be defended if a planning appeal were made.

  • Back Roads to Lunch – a Drive from the West-Bound Services on the M27 to Lower Chute and Back to Winchester on a Variety of Roads Suitable for the Older Car
    SOLENT MG - Back Roads to Lunch – a drive from the west-bound services on the M27 to Lower Chute and back to Winchester on a variety of roads suitable for the older car. By using the ‘tulip’ system of route guide it is hoped that cars will not move along the route in procession, and that the faster cars/drivers and bikes can make good progress without the need to hold back for the more sedate motorist. This system also allows for stops to take photographs, at your leisure. This drive starts from the car park outside the café in the west-bound M27 service area. You can fuel-up as you leave on the drive, although there should be fuel available en-route, but in these uncertain times rural service stations do keep funny hours and they do close – all too often for good. You will be deemed to be in control of your vehicle at all times. It is your responsibility to ensure that you & your vehicle comply with the law (inc speed limits) at all times. And, take extra care through the villages Key to Symbols Caution Point of interest (info in italics) Fuel Pub The Route The total distance for this drive is 35.8 miles to the lunch stop, the intention is that we should all meet at the Hatchet, at Lower Chute by 12:45 for lunch, although there are other possible refreshment stops en-route. (The Hatchet = SU312532 – post code SP11 9DX – phone 01264 730229) All errors and omissions are mine, and I’d love to hear about them so that I can improve your experience on future drives.
