This AMR covers the monitoring period 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2018, and is based on the policies of the adopted West Dorset, Weymouth & Portland joint Local Plan (‘Local Plan’). This monitoring report is the fourth AMR prepared jointly by West Dorset District Council and Weymouth & Portland Borough Council. The AMR reports on the progress made in the preparation of planning documents in 2017/18 and the performance of the key monitoring indicators in the adopted Local Plan to ensure the policies are being applied as intended and working effectively. The Local Plan was formally adopted by Weymouth & Portland Borough Council on 15 October 2015 and West Dorset District Council on 22 October 2015. In his report on the examination of the Local Plan published on 14 August 2015 the Planning Inspector concluded that there was a ‘need for an early review of the Local Plan by 2021 to ensure provision of sufficient housing land for the remainder of the plan period’. The Local Plan review is being undertaken in line with this modification. During this monitoring period the Local Plan review has been through one round of counsulation which took place from February to April 2017 on the Issues and Options document, with the Preferred Options consultation scheduled for August to October 2018. The Issues and Options consultation included potential options for development across West Dorset and Weymouth & Portland as well as highlighting policies that are likely to need amendments. Work is well underway with the Preferred Options document with additional evidence now available including; Landscape and Heritage Study, Level 1 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment, updated SHLAA (Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment) 2018, Sport and Leisure Facilities Needs Assessment and the Joint Retail and Commercial Leisure Study, with the Transport Modelling currently being finalised. During the monitoring period there were 18 neighbourhood plans being produced: at the end of March 2018, the Piddle Valley Neighbourhood Plan was scheduled to go to examination; and the Buckland Newton Neighbourhood Plan was made in December 2017. In terms of key targets in the adopted Local Plan a number of these have not been met, including the target to build 775 dwellings per annum in policy SUS1. A total of 663 dwellings were delivered in the current monitoring year - 2017/18. The Preferred Options document will seek views on a new housing target of 794 dwellings per annum, derived from the government’s proposed new standard methodology. The government also intends to introduce the new Housing Delivery Test in November 2018, which has implications for the 5 year housing land supply. A provisional assessment of the likely results of the new test indicate that the 5 year supply of deliverable housing sites at 01 April EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 Annual Monitoring Report 2017-18 West Dorset, Weymouth & Portland Local Plan 2018 is 4.88 years. This figure may be revised when the results of the Housing Delivery Test are finally published. Other monitoring indicators which were not reached include those relating to: Policy SUS1 - the level of employment floorspace delivered fell below the target of 3ha per annum on allocated sites with 0.6ha delivered on allocated sites and 1.145ha of employment floorspace delivered overall. Policy HOUS1 - In West Dorset 22% of homes delivered were affordable against the target of 35%. In Weymouth and Portland 13% of the homes delivered were affordable against the target of 35% in Weymouth and 25% in Portland. Policy ENV5 - there were 9 planning permissions granted contrary to advice of the environment agency above the target of zero. Policy ENV2 - there was also a small net decrease in the number of heathland birds in West Dorset. However there were a number of policy monitoring indicators which were reached including those relating to: Policy ENV4 - as the overall number of heritage assets at risk fell slightly from 127 to 126 over the West Dorset and Weymouth and Portland area. Policy ENV 5 (Flood Risk area) - with no increase in the total area in flood zone 3.

  • Local Resident Submissions to the Dorset County Council Electoral Review
    Local resident submissions to the Dorset County Council electoral review This PDF document contains all local resident submissions. Some versions of Adobe allow the viewer to move quickly between bookmarks. Local Boundary Commission for England Consultation Portal Page 1 of 1 Dorset County Personal Details: Name: Anne Clements E-mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Comment text: The new boundary for Maiden Newton ward is much better as we are the hub village for Wynford Eagle, West Compton, Toller Fratrum and Toller Porcorum. Less convinced about Kingcombe Wraxall Hooke and Rampisham though. It would be better to place these within another ward. Also it makes no sense for Chilfrome Chalmington and Frome St Quintin to be in the same ward as Sydling. There is no connection between the two valleys. This latter group should be in with Maiden Newton, making boundaries of the A37 to one side and the roman road to the south. So my proposal would be that the Maiden Newton Ward should comprise: Maiden Newton, Compton Valence, West Compton, Toller Fratrum and Toller Porcorum Cattistock, Chilfrome, Chalmington and From St Quintin. Sydling and Up sydling should go in with Grimstone, Stratton, Forston, Godmanstone, Neter Cerne , Cerne Abbas and Up Cerne. Having lived in both Sydling and Maiden Newton, the dividing line of the A37 is a strong one, with most of Sydling's links being with Cerne Abbas and the Cerne Valley. Maiden Newton's boundaries need to encompass the villages currently in the Sydling group but Maiden Newton side of the main road. There is no strong linkage between Sydling and Chilfrome, Chalmington and Frome St Quintin.

  • Monique Bellingham – Lyme's Canadienne by Keith Shaw
    Monique Bellingham – Lyme’s Canadienne by Keith Shaw Introduction Monique Bellingham was born in North America in the 18th Century which is very unusual for a long term resident of Lyme Regis. Her story is a fascinating tale covering the lives of one family over four generations and three thousand miles and, what’s more, she played an important role in the development of the town. Here is the only known picture of Monique. It is a bad photocopy of a poor original. It is in the Museum’s archives with a note saying that the original is in Bridport Museum but it has no record of it. It is thought that she was probably in her sixties when it was produced. The Baby family and Canadian History Monique Baby was born in Detroit, Wayne County in 1777. Her parents were Jacques Duperon Baby who had been born in Montreal and Suzanne de la Croix Reaume who was born in Detroit which was, at its formation, part of New France. Jacques was descended from the first French settlers and was thus a Canadien with an “e” and so Monique was a Canadienne. Following the fall of Quebec in 1759, and Montreal in 1760 all the remaining French holdings became part of British North America. It was not until well after the war of American Independence that US forces took control of Detroit in 1796. This was a time of great political changes in the Great Lakes area. In 1763, after the First Treaty of Paris which ended the “Seven Years War” it was officially designated as “Indian Territory” before being combined with the Province of Quebec in 1774.

  • Cattistock and the Great War Cattistock Armistice Commemorations 1918 -2018
    Cattistock and the Great War Cattistock Armistice Commemorations 1918 -2018 Edited by Charlie Bladon Detail from the Thiepval Memorial showing Frank and Harry Brown, brothers from Cattistock 1 Contents Introduction 3 The Men of Cattistock in the Great War 11 Harry Brown 11 William Brown 12 Edwin Herbert Cousins 14 Reginald John Davis 17 William Thomas Dove 18 Leonard Sydney Everett 20 Joseph Charles Lane 21 James Albert Powell 22 (Thomas) John Welch 23 William David Lane 24 Bernard Brown 25 Frank Ewart Savill 26 Frank Barter 27 George Hugh Digby 28 Allen Llewellen Palmer 29 Albert Ernest Dewdney 30 Reginald Joseph Dubbin 32 William George Ellis Lee 33 Acknowledgements 34 Appendix 36 2 Introduction n 1914, Cattistock as a Parish covers a large area amounting to approximately I2,986 acres, and extends almost to Evershot and Rampisham. Most of the area is farmland, and includes Sandhills, Higher and Lower Holway, Chantmarle, Inpark, Rotley Row and Merrifield. Many of these hamlets have decreased in size or vanished, with only a few derelict buildings remaining. In this booklet, where ‘Cattistock’ is used, it is implicit that this includes those places mentioned above. The Parish is an area of civil government and is unconnected, in this sense, to the church (whose local affairs are overseen by the Parochial Church Council, or PCC), and is governed by the Parish Council, the lowest level of local government. In building a picture of how Cattistock and the parish looked in 1914, there are several primary sources to draw upon. The census of 1911 gives us the names of the inhabitants, but sadly does not tell us where they lived.

  • Planning Committee 15 February, 2018 WD/D/17/001356 Application
    Planning Committee 15 February, 2018 WD/D/17/001356 Application Number: WD/D/17/001356 Full Registration Date: 12 July, 2017 Application Site: THE ORCHARD, CIDER APPLE ORCHARD, CHANTMARLE LANE JUNCTION CHANTMARLE TO, CHALMINGTON, DORCHESTER, DT2 0HB Proposal: Use of land for siting of 5 shepherd's huts with composting toilets, extension to barn to form taproom, cafe and farm shop and installation of temporary mobile home. Applicant: Mr Green Ward Members: Cllr N M Penfold Case Officer: Robert McDonald The application is before Members following deferral at the previous meeting on 18 January 2018. The application was deferred to allow for further negotiations with the applicant over the hours of operation of the tap room/cafe/farm shop. Updates and amendments to the previous report are in bold below. Summary Recommendation 1.1 Approve subject to conditions. 2. Description of development 2.1 Site and surroundings The application site lies to the south of the Chalmington hamlet and about 0.5km north of the Cattistock settlement, which does not have a DDB but is a 200+ population settlement. The proposals concern a strip of land skirting around the northern boundary of the holding which is currently farmed as a cider orchard. The wider holding is some 7.86ha in size and comprises a 40 year old apple orchard, planted with some 2600 cider apple trees. 2.2 In terms of built form on site, the only existing building is a steel portal framed barn, finished in green, which services the land and cider production. There are areas of hardstanding adjacent to the barn and a track providing access to the unclassified road which connects the hamlet to the C class road passing through Cattistock and beyond.
