  • Important Holiday Information
    Important Holiday Information To help you enjoy your holiday, we have prepared some essential information and we ask if you could read this prior to your arrival to help you plan a successful and enjoyable holiday. Using Electrical Equipment Onboard Your narrowboat is fitted with leisure batteries to run the electrical system onboard when the engine is turned off. This is a 12-volt DC system which means that there will be some restrictions on what electrical items you can use on your holiday. Battery Power System The boat engine will need to be running for at least 6 hours per day in order to keep the leisure batteries charged up. This can be cruising hours or by running the engine when moored up. These batteries power the internal lights, fridge, TV etc. If the battery power runs too low then electrical systems such as the toilet flush button won't work properly. Inverter Your boat is fitted with an inverter. When it's turned on, it converts the 12v power supply from the leisure batteries to a 240v supply, enabling you to use the 3 pin plug sockets and the onboard hairdryer. Please note that the inverter is a power drain on the leisure batteries when used with the engine turned off. It should be turned off when not in use. Charging Mobile Phones, Tablets & Laptops Your narrowboat is equipped with 12v car type charging sockets to charge mobile phones etc using car charging leads. These items can also be charged using the 3 pin 240v sockets. We advise that you charge your devices when you are cruising when the inverter is turned on and not moored up with the engine turned off.

This representation is an OBJECTION to the Plan. We are of the opinion that the SAMDEV is NOT SOUND for the following reasons: • It has not been positively prepared : the target growth for housing within Weston Rhyn/Rhosweil does not meet any objectively assessed development and infrastructure requirements and is inconsistent with achieving sustainable development • It is not justified : the planned growth for Weston Rhyn / Rhosweil does not comprise the most appropriate strategy, when considered against the reasonable alternatives and it has not been based upon proportionate evidence base; • It is not effective : in that the plan will not deliver the growth or sites identified • It is not consistent with National Policy : in that it will not enable the delivery of sustainable development in accordance with NPPF The changes that could be made to overcome and address these concerns of unsoundness would be

Oswestry Uplands Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment 1 2 3 White Paper , Biodiversity 2020 and the European Landscape Convention , we are North revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.
