The work was commissioned by Pleydell Smithyman Ltd. on behalf of WCL Quarries Ltd. who funded the work. WCL Quarries Ltd. is to submit a consolidating planning application to Staffordshire County Council for a proposed eastern extension to Cranebrook Quarry and the restoration of the quarry to a wildlife enhanced, agriculturally managed landscape. Following confirmation that an Environmental Statement was required to accompany the planning application, a scoping opinion was prepared by Staffordshire County Council in response to a screening and scoping request by Pleydell Smithyman Limited on behalf of WCL Quarries Ltd. The resulting scoping statement identified several environmental issues including impacts upon the historic environment. This HEDA discusses historic environment issues and is to be incorporated into the forthcoming Environmental Statement. This report includes a description of the baseline conditions, examines a range of sources on the archaeological resource of the area and identifies any known and potential receptor(s) within the application site or its immediate vicinity. This report concludes that there is a single surviving undesignated heritage asset (SHER entry 04890 @ SK 0741 0646) within the site located towards the northern boundary of the proposed eastern extension. SHER entry 02221 (@ SK 0795 0680) does not lie within the site but forms the sites southern boundary. Proposed development at the site will in the first instance comprise mineral extraction in the area of the eastern extension. This will be followed by the restoration of the quarry to grassland/ low-level agricultural land (with areas of wildlife enhancement) along with a waterbody. The majority of the site has been subject to high levels of truncation caused by quarrying activity which will have removed any features or deposits of archaeological significance. Only the proposed eastern extension has the potential to contain any buried archaeological remains including the possible Iron Age or Roman enclosure (SHER entry 04890). Any potential direct or indirect impacts upon the Wyrley and Essington Canal (SHER entry 02221) are unclear at this very early stage in the design process. Based on the available data the potential for the presence of archaeological remains within the proposed eastern extension is deemed to be medium to medium / high. The potential for _____________________________________________________________________ Land at Cranebrook Quarry, A5 Watling Street Muckley Corner, Brownhills, WS14 0BU (NGR: 407360 1 306379): A Historic Environment Desk-based Assessment 2015. archaeological remains in the remainder of the site is deemed to be none. Should archaeological remains be present within the proposed eastern extension area the current proposals would impact upon them. Should planning permission be granted it is considered that the disturbance to, or loss of, archaeological remains due to the proposed development could be satisfactorily mitigated through a programme of archaeological work. Further archaeological works and mitigation could be secured through a condition attached to any permission granted. Recommendations regarding mitigation measures will need to be made by the Archaeological Advisor to Staffordshire County Council. _____________________________________________________________________ Land at Cranebrook Quarry, A5 Watling Street Muckley Corner, Brownhills, WS14 0BU (NGR: 2 407360 306379): A Historic Environment Desk-based Assessment 2015.

Information provided within the document will inform the preparation of a Core Strategy for the District as part of the Local Development Framework, in particular in the consideration of potential development locations within the District and an overall spatial strategy for longer term development having regard to principles of sustainability. 1.2 In his report on the Public Examination into the District Council’s first submitted Core Strategy (withdrawn 2006), the Inspector concluded that although there were proposed housing allocations within some of the District’s rural settlements, there was a lack of evidence in relation to the suitability of villages in the District to accommodate growth. He considered that the relative sustainability of different settlements should have been assessed as part of the preparation of the Core Strategy. He indicated that an assessment of the sustainability of rural settlements would ensure that the scale and location of development outside the District’s two main towns was driven by overall sustainability considerations, rather than simply the availability of previously developed land.

  • A5 Strategy 2018-2031
    A5 Strategy Supporting Growth and Movement in the Midlands 2018-2031 Foreword In response to the pressures and opportunities faced along the A5 corridor, the A5 Transport Partnership was formed in 2009/10. It includes representation from 17 local authorities, including local highway authorities, local planning authorities, as well as Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs). The A5 Partnership produced its first strategy for the corridor in 2011, providing an evidence base to inform the development of Local Plans, Local Transport Plans and policy, negotiations with developers and to support bids for infrastructure funding. Despite much progress being made, the increasing importance of the A5 as a strategic route, combined with the unprecedented level of housing and employment growth that will come forward along the corridor between now and 2031, means there is still much more to be delivered. Investment is required to ensure the A5 continues to fulfil its role as a key artery of movement that facilitates economic growth and provides network resilience for the wider Strategic Road Network. As a result the A5 Partnership felt that now was the right time to review the strategy, with a focus on the following key themes: Delivering Growth Supporting Network Resilience Delivering a safe and secure A5 Managing the impact of freight Delivering a sustainable A5 The Strategy covers the 77 mile section of the A5 from Gailey in Staffordshire to Stoney Stratford near Milton Keynes, and sets out the vision for the A5 by providing a framework for maintaining and improving the corridor for the next 13 years. There is significant support for the work of the A5 Partnership.

Projects Identified as Important to the Parish, to be Pursued by the Parish Council, Through Various Funding Sources Including Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) 53 2 1 Background to the Plan 1.1 The Localism Act 2011 promoted neighbourhood engagement in the planning process. It introduced a new kind of Plan, called a Neighbourhood Development Plan (or Neighbourhood Plan, for short), that could be prepared by Parish Councils. One of the key aims of the legislation is to enable people to contribute to the long term development of their own community. A Neighbourhood Plan can make a real difference to how development is carried out in the Parish, because once it has been through all the stages of preparation and been “made” (adopted) by Lichfield District Council (LDC), it becomes part of the District’s Development Plan, alongside the LDC Local Plan. Its planning policies will therefore be used in the decision-making process when planning applications within the Parish are considered by the Local Planning Authority. This Neighbourhood Plan supports the delivery of strategic policies contained in the Lichfield District Local Plan in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework 2019 para 13.

  • Chapter Eight: a Lost Way of Life – Farms in the Parish
    Chapter Eight: A lost way of life – farms in the parish Like everywhere else in England, the farms in Edingale parish have consolidated, with few of the post-inclosure farms remaining now as unified businesses. Of the 13 farms listed here post-inclosure, only three now operate as full-time agricultural businesses based in the parish (ignoring the complication of Pessall Farm). While for more than 200 years, these farms were far and away the major employers in the parish, full-time non-family workers now account for fewer than ten people. Where this trend will finally end is hard to predict. Farms in Oakley As previously mentioned, the historic township of Oakley was split between the Catton and Elford estates. In 1939, a bible was presented to Mrs Anson, of Catton Hall, from the tenants and staff of the estate, which lists Mansditch, Raddle, Pessall Pitts, The Crosses, Donkhill Pits and Oakley House farms among others. So the Catton influence on Oakley extended well into the twentieth century. Oakley House, Oakley The Croxall registers record that the Haseldine family lived at Oakley, which we can presume to be Oakley House. The last entry for this family is 1620 and the registers then show two generations of the Dakin family living there: Thomas Dakin who died in 1657, followed by his son, Robert . Thomas was listed as being churchwarden of Croxall in 1626 and in 1633. Three generations of the Booth family then lived at Oakley House. John Booth, born in 1710, had seven children. His son George (1753-1836 ) married Catherine and they had thirteen children, including Charles (1788-1844) who married Anna Maria.
