  • Shropshire Open Space
    SECTION 1 – INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Introduction and background The study 1.1 Shropshire is one of England’s most rural and sparsely populated authorities and the wide expanses of countryside, surrounding historic market towns and smaller settlements, is central to the characteristics of the area. Access to the countryside, as well as local open spaces is therefore particularly important to residents. The area also attracts thousands of tourists each year, many of whom travel to experience the natural environment and character of the county as well as to enjoy the heritage of the county. 1.2 In April 2009, the local authorities of Bridgnorth, North Shropshire, Oswestry, Shrewsbury and Atcham, South Shropshire and Shropshire County Council merged into one new unitary authority, namely Shropshire Council. 1.3 In preparation for this change, PMP were commissioned during May 2008 to guide the Council in the production of an assessment of open spaces, sport and recreation facilities across the unitary authority boundaries in accordance with the requirements of Planning Policy Guidance Note 17 (PPG17) and its Companion Guide published in September 2002. Following the liquidation of PMP, S and LP Consultancy was commissioned to make final amendments to the study. The study will underpin the evidence base for the new Shropshire Local Development Framework. 1.4 The study builds on assessments of open space undertaken by PMP for Shrewsbury and Atcham Borough (2007), North Shropshire District (2007) and Oswestry Borough (2004). 1.5 The key aims

Shrewsbury’s proximity to the Welsh border has given the town a turbulent history with battles between the two sides as to whom should rule the town. The famous Battle of Shrewsbury took place in 1403, and was one of the most bloodiest battles in English history . The site of this battle has been designated a heritage site and can be visited as can the nearby memorial church. Located alongside beautiful countryside with the nearby Welsh borders to the west , and to the east the larger town of Telford and the West Midlands conurbation beyond, Shrewsbury is now the county town of Shropshire and the largest town in the county. It is one of England’s finest medieval market towns. The town centre is packed with timber framed black and white buildings, steep narrow streets and alleyways. It has over 600 listed buildings including the Castle, now a regimental museum and also the famous Shrewsbury Abbey. Charles Darwin was born and educated in Shrewsbury and there are many references to him around the town. Shrewsbury is now a vibrant market town with many bars, shops and restaurants and a popular tourist destination.

GreenGuide_0809_cover.indd 1 11/9/08 20:04:25 Introduction Introduction BACK IN 1988, the first Shrewsbury Friends of the Earth recycling guide consisted of 3 sheets of paper – detailing 4 bottle banks, no can banks and a few charities and individuals collecting scrap paper. 20 years later, we are producing this book! 2006 was the year the world finally woke up to climate change - and it has hardly been out of the headlines since. The issues that Friends of the Earth have been campaigning about, and trying to get the world to pay attention to are now the daily content of news bulletins. Households everywhere are feeling this pressure - in higher energy, food and fuel bills, as the potential scarcity is recognised. Given the apocalyptic nature of much of the media coverage you would be forgiven for feeling a little worried about the future. However there is no need to despair just yet – if we act quickly enough, we can still avoid the worst effects of climate change. There are many ways you can play your part in reducing your own ‘carbon footprint.’ Whether it’s buying locally produced food, swapping the car for a bike or the bus, making an ethical investment, recycling and composting the contents of your rubbish bin or kitting your home out with energy efficient light bulbs and your very own solar panels - Shrewsbury people are now recycling over 42% of their waste, and many are cutting car use.
