INTRODUCTION Scope 10.1 Filching Quarry is a currently inactive chalk quarry within the South Downs National Park. The quarry is located on the western fringe of the small hamlet of Filching, East Sussex, approximately 2.1km from the northern boundary of the borough of Eastbourne. 10.2 The approximate centre of the site lies at National Grid Reference 556400, 102850. The site is located just off the Jevington Road, approximately 2.5km south west of its junction with the A2270 at Polegate. 10.3 The site is only accessible from its eastern side, through a gate which is kept padlocked. 10.4 The site occupies a broadly rectangular piece of land of approximately 1.9 hectares. The quarry void is approximately 135m x 160m at its maximum extent and is between 23-56m deep. 10.5 Chalk was originally worked at Filching Quarry for lime production, and subsequently to produce fill materials for the construction industry. The quarry has a valid mineral extraction planning permission requiring the restoration of the site by 2017. 10.6 The proposed development seeks to stabilise the quarry and then to secure the restoration of the site to grassland by subsequently infilling the quarry using inert materials (refer to drawing L&V06 for the proposed restoration landform). Structure 10.7 The following report assesses the potential landscape and visual implications of the proposed development, and is split into sections, as follows: General introduction and summary of the methodology used; • baseline assessment for the existing site and its surroundings, which includes an examination of the planning context of the proposals, a landscape appraisal of the existing site and its surroundings and a visual assessment of the existing site and its surroundings; • study of the development proposals, including mitigation, to identify potential landscape and visual characteristics, effects and impact generators; • assessment of the sensitivity of the landscape and visual receptors to the proposed development and the potential residual landscape and visual impacts likely to be generated after mitigation has been considered and their significance; and • summary and conclusions. Filching Quarry Page | 10-1 SLR Consulting Limited LANDSCAPE AND VISUAL 10 10.8 The assessment of impacts, as discussed below, includes a study of the development proposals, potential landscape and visual characteristics and impact generators, effects and mitigation and would be considered in terms of spatial elements (local, district, regional, national), timescales (short/medium/long term) and permanency (reversible or permanent). 10.9 The assessment of residual impacts, as discussed below, considers the sensitivity of the receptors to the proposed development, the magnitude of change and the overall significance of effects. Methodology 10.10 The format of this assessment is based on the principles produced by the Countryside Agency (“Landscape Assessment Guidance”, 2002) and the Landscape Institute and Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (“Guidelines for Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment”, Second Edition, 2002). 10.11 Initially a desktop study was undertaken to review the landscape planning history, proposal plans, all existing assessments and other relevant information and to identify potential viewpoints with the aid of ZTV analysis. These viewpoints and any others identified during the fieldwork were then visited and assessed for their sensitivity to the proposed development. The site visit was carried out on Tuesday 16th November, 2010. The weather conditions were dry and clear/suitable for assessment work. 10.12 Photographs illustrating views from the selected viewpoints were taken using a Nikon D70 digital camera, set to a 34mm focal length (the equivalent of a 50mm lens for a 35mm format negative).

  • Ashurst Circular Walk
    Saturday Walkers Club www.walkingclub.org.uk Ashurst Circular walk A walk via Pooh Bridge to the attractive Wealden village of Hartfield, with a longer option over the elevated heathland of Ashdown Forest. Length Main Walk: 19½ km (12.1 miles). Four hours 45 minutes walking time. For the whole excursion including trains, sights and meals, allow at least 9½ hours. Long Circular Walk: 24¼ km (15.0 miles). Six hours walking time. Short Circular Walk: 15 km (9.3 miles). Three hours 30 minutes walking time. OS Map Explorer 135. Ashurst, map reference TQ507388, is on the East Sussex/Kent border, between East Grinstead and Tunbridge Wells. Toughness 5 out of 10 (7 for the Long Walk, 3 for the Short Walk). Features This walk makes a gentle start along the Medway valley, soon joining the Wealdway long-distance path. After an early pub lunch in the small village of Withyham with its notable parish church there is a choice of three routes. All lead eventually to the neighbouring village of Hartfield, associated with the author AA Milne and his most famous creation: coachloads of tourists regularly descend on Pooh Corner to buy all manner of Winnie-the-Pooh memorabilia. The Short Walk heads directly for this village, while the other variations continue through the extensive Buckhurst Estate into Five Hundred Acre Wood. This is the furthest point for the Main Walk, which crosses the famous Pooh Bridge on its way round to Hartfield. The Long Walk climbs steadily through the wood and continues around the rim of a valley in Ashdown Forest, the largest area of elevated heathland in south-east England.

  • Bees and Wasps of the East Sussex South Downs
    A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 Abstract For six years between 2003 and 2008, over 100 site visits were made to fifteen chalk grassland and chalk heath sites within the South Downs of Vice-county 14 (East Sussex). This produced a list of 227 bee and wasp species and revealed the comparative frequency of different species, the comparative richness of different sites and provided a basic insight into how many of the species interact with the South Downs at a site and landscape level. The study revealed that, in addition to the character of the semi-natural grasslands present, the bee and wasp fauna is also influenced by the more intensively-managed agricultural landscapes of the Downs, with many species taking advantage of blossoming hedge shrubs, flowery fallow fields, flowery arable field margins, flowering crops such as Rape, plus plants such as buttercups, thistles and dandelions within relatively improved pasture. Some very rare species were encountered, notably the bee Halictus eurygnathus Blüthgen which had not been seen in Britain since 1946. This was eventually recorded at seven sites and was associated with an abundance of Greater Knapweed. The very rare bees Anthophora retusa (Linnaeus) and Andrena niveata Friese were also observed foraging on several dates during their flight periods, providing a better insight into their ecology and conservation requirements.

The walk can be divided into two shorter walks: Villages and Poohsticks (10½ or 9½ km=6½ or 5½ miles) is the twisty northern walk. Clumps and Sandpits (10 km=6 miles) is the breezy southern walk which takes in the wilder spaces and the other Pooh sites. There are a few nettles in the northern walk near Hartfield and some brambles a little later, making shorts inadvisable.

We often hear politicians talk about it, the press are quick to point out what is or isn’t, in their mind, fair. People are always interested in getting their ‘fair share’ and I’m sure many of us have heard a child’s plaintive cry of “It’s not fair”. However the cartoon shows that fair is not always best. Although the Bible does talk of fairness and judging fairly it seems far more interested in justice and freedom. One of the ideas people find in the Bible is that of a ‘preferential option for the poor’.
