Many local people I spoke Snailbeach Village Hall to said that this was the heaviest snowfall they had seen in some two Tuesday & Wednesday 10am decades. Fortunately (or unfortunately for the tobogganists) it was soon to disappear with the heavy rain that followed. Will we ever again see the ‘big Iyengar Yo ga freeze’ of ’63? The snow back then started on Boxing Day 1962 and the ‘big Snailbeach Village Hall freeze’ lasted until March 1963 with temperatures dropping to minus 22° Tuesday 7pm centigrade in parts of the UK.

    Appeal Decision Site visit made on 22 March 2019 by D Child BA BPL MRTPI an Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State Decision date: 24 February 2020 Appeal Ref: APP/L3245/W/18/3207878 Land off Shop Lane, Snailbeach, Shrewsbury, Shropshire SY5 0NX • The appeal is made under section 78 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) against a refusal to grant planning permission. • The appeal is made by Mr Alan Hughes against the decision of Shropshire Council. • The application Ref 17/06003/FUL, dated 29 November 2017, was refused by notice dated 13 March 2018. • The development proposed is the replacement of an existing touring caravan with a new caravan for occupation as a dwelling. Decision 1. The appeal is dismissed. Procedural Matter 2. The application and the Council’s decision were made prior to July 2018. The submissions of both parties therefore refer to the National Planning Policy Framework published in March 2012. However, I have had regard to the revised Framework 2019 (the Framework) in reaching my decision. Main Issues 3. The main issues are: • The effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the countryside, having particular regard to the location of the development and the landscape of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (the AONB); • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the Snailbeach Conservation Area (the CA) and the setting of the Snailbeach Lead Mine Scheduled Ancient Monument (SAM) heritage assets; • The effect of the development upon Highway safety, having particular regard to access and delivery arrangements; and • The effect of the development upon the adjacent Special Area of Conservation (the SAC) and Site of Special Scientific Interest (the SSSI).

A new open-market dwelling in this location beyond the established built-up areas of the settlements of Snailbeach and Crowsnest would be contrary to Policies CS1, CS4, CS5 and CS11 of the Shropshire Local Development Framework Adopted Core Strategy, and would not represent sustainable development under the National Planning Policy Framework. 2. The further encroachment of sporadic ribbon development into the essentially open and rural landscape which currently separates the settlements of Snailbeach and Crowsnest would detract from the setting of the Snailbeach Conservation Area and the character and scenic quality of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework and Policies CS6 and CS17 of the Shropshire Local Development Framework Adopted Core Strategy. 3. On account of its elevation above the adjacent highway the development would appear unduly prominent and overbearing.
