Aston Hall, its grounds and the buildings within them form the hub of the settlement, which is generally inwardly focused and severed from its wider landscape by the Trent and Mersey Canal and the A34 Stone Road/The Fillybrooks. STS003 Built heritage Trent and Listed buildings within Swynnerton conservation area Post- Conservation CA Moderate 1196744, DST5720 Mersey Canal dating from the late 18th and 19th centuries including a medieval area, listed 1291498, 3 x II in Stone milepost and a bridge along the Trent and Mersey Canal building 1240240 south south of Stone. Also, a farmhouse built as part of a brass foundry served by the canal. The significance of the asset lies in its historic and evidential value as a piece of 18th century infrastructure, from its setting, which is defined by the group value of the buildings and features within it, and from its relationship to the natural topography through which it was constructed. 3 Unique Asset type Name Description Period Designation Grade Significance NHL HER identifier (value) reference reference STS004 Archaeology Pire Hill Place name, possibly denoting a look-out hill or a hill used Early Non- N/A Low N/A MST3623 as the site of a beacon or other activity involving fire.

WEDGWOOD, M.P., C.C. Hon. Sec. of the William Salt Archaeological Society. LONDON SAMPSON LOW, MARSTON & CO. LTD. kon Si 710620 DEDICATED TO MY CONSTITUENTS, WHO DO THE WORK CONTENTS Chapter I. The Creation of the Potteries. II. A Peasant Industry. III. Elersand Art. IV. The Salt Glaze Potters. V. The Beginning of the Factory. VI. Wedgwood and Cream Colour. VII. The End of the Eighteenth Century. VIII. Spode and Blue Printing. IX. Methodism and the Capitalists. X. Steam Power and Strikes. XI. Minton Tiles and China. XII. Modern Men and Methods. vy PREFACE THIS account of the potting industry in North Staffordshire will be of interest chiefly to the people of North Stafford- shire. They and their fathers before them have grown up with, lived with, made and developed the English pottery trade. The pot-bank and the shard ruck are, to them, as familiar, and as full of old associations, as the cowshed to the countryman or the nets along the links to the fishing popula- tion. To them any history of the development of their industry will be welcome. But potting is such a specialized industry, so confined to and associated with North Stafford- shire, that it is possible to study very clearly in the case of this industry the cause of its localization, and its gradual change from a home to a factory business.

Defining our planning boundaries 8 6. Risk based catchment screening 10 7. Conclusion and next steps 18 APPENDICES A Strategic Planning Areas 20 B Tactical Planning Areas 109 C Catchment Plans 150 2 1.0 INTRODUCTION We are developing our first Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan Every day we drain over 2.7 billion litres of wastewater from our customers’ properties. We then treat this water at our wastewater treatment work before returning the cleaned water back to the environment. Our wastewater system consists of over 94,000km of sewers and drains, 4400 pumping stations and 1010 treatment works. This system has to continue to operate effectively day in day out but also needs to be able to cope with future pressures and this is where our Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan comes in. Our Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan will cover the investments we plan to make over the next 5 year period, 2020 to 2025, as well setting out a long term (25 year) strategy for how we are going to deliver a reliable and sustainable wastewater service. The first full publication of Drainage and Wastewater Management Plans (DWMPs) is not scheduled until 2022/23. We have chosen to provide a draft of our initial findings to: support the strategic investments we are proposing for AMP7; demonstrate our commitment to long term, sustainable, wastewater planning; and, provide an early benchmark to support and encourage the sector in development of DWMPs - in keeping with our position as a sector leader and innovator.

  • A1 Water Resource Zones
    Appendix A - How much water do we have available? A1 Water Resource Zones Following the 2009 Water Resources Management Plan, we informed Defra of our plan to review the structure of our six water resources zones in time for the 2014 WRMP. The purpose of the review was to ensure that we comply with the EA definition of a water resource zone being the “largest possible zone in which customers share the same risk of a resource shortfall”. We completed our review of resource zones in 2009-10 and shared the results and supporting evidence to Defra and the EA in June 2010. Our review took into consideration the supply and distribution enhancements we are undertaking during AMP5 and resulted in 15 water resource zones, as illustrated in figure A1.1 below. The new zones provide a more accurate representation of how customers will be served by our network at the end of AMP5, and meet the EA’s resource zone definition. Our 2011 and 2012 WRMP annual reviews have included a summary of the outturn water supply and demand position for each of these new zones. Figure A1.1: Severn Trent Water’s new Water Resource Zones Defining our Water Resource Zones Our review of water resource zones used a combination of the best available company asset configuration records along with operational expert judgement. Following this review, we have also reconfigured the water demand and supply models used for our water resources planning. Our approach to reviewing the structure of our existing water resource zones was agreed with the EA in January 2010, and can be summarised as follows: 1 Severn Trent Water: Final Water Resources Management Plan 2014 Appendix A - How much water do we have available? • We have reviewed our major strategic sources and assessed how the connectivity of our supply system allows them to support our smaller sources of water.
