Area Profile: Alport Key Characteristics Population: 2,485 Hectares: 5323 Households: 1,074. Population Density: 0.5 people/hectare Source: Census 2011 Census Spatial Outline The Alport area is located to the west of Amber Valley Borough, 10 miles north of Derby and 14 miles west of Nottingham. Alport is primarily a rural area with several small and large villages dispersed across its geographical boundary. It is relatively rural with active farming communities and with a limited history of industry, mainly centered on quarrying. It has a very attractive and sensitive natural and physical landscape, with the eastern part of the ward protected as part of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage site and national and local designations to protect several sites of high environmental quality. In the past decade there has been very limited new housing and/or employment development in the Alport area as there are significant constraints that limit their coming forward. 1 Improving Places and Meeting Community Needs Local Area: Alport covers 5,323 hectares of land to the west of the Borough. It is the largest administrative area in Amber Valley, occupying 20% of the borough’s land area.

Most of its population is concentrated in the village of Holloway and to a lesser extent in the smaller villages/settlements of Lea, Hazelwood, Idridgehay and Alderwasley. Age: As can be seen from the table below the age of Alport’s residents tends to be older than the average for the Borough.

The Alport area has one of the lowest crime rates in the Borough. Crime Rates: The level of crime in Alport is well below average. Within a 12 month period (Jan-Dec 2013) the number of crimes committed per 1000 people was 24.1 compared to the borough average of 44.2. It is ranked the seventh lowest crime area in the Borough. 85% of these crimes involved theft and burglary.

Source for others: http://www.zoopla.co.uk showing average current value Feb 2014 The average house price in this rural area is 72% higher than the Borough average. Homelessness: In the financial year 2011/12 there was one priority need applicant from the Alport area, and a further 3 applicants approaching the service for advice. (Source: Amber Valley Borough Council Housing section data .) Housing Stock Condition: The Amber Valley Stock Condition Survey 2010 states that the general condition of housing is poorer in Alport than the average condition of houses Borough wide. This is largely due to the historical nature of many of the dwellings, which although desirable are often not energy efficient and are in need of insulation/repairs. There are nearly twice as many households (percentage) lacking modern facilities and dwellings in disrepair than the Amber Valley average, but only a third of the percentage of vulnerable households are in non-decent homes.

Positive responses had been received from the public with nothing negative to date.

Further to these each reported as follows: a) Economic – Martin reported that the group had looked at baseline information for housing, business and tourism and the issues arising from each topic.

    Vision Idridgehay and Alton Ashleyhay NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN QUESTIONNAIRE Dear Neighbour, Your opinions can make a difference. New Planning Policy allows small Local Neighbourhoods to create plans for their own area. Although these must fit with Amber Valley’s Core Strategy the Neighbourhood Plan policies have to be taken into account when making planning decisions. The Steering Committee for Vision for Idridgehay & Alton and Ashleyhay (VIA) are working on creating a plan for our two parishes. We would therefore be grateful if you could take some time to complete this questionnaire so that your views and ideas can influence the policies which will appear in this plan. The questionnaire is going to every household in the two parishes. If you would like to complete individual responses from your household because of differing views, or if you run a local business and want those views heard, please ask your local contact for an extra copy or collect one from the Village Stores. Your response is confidential and we will not be identifying individuals, although interesting ideas may be quoted in the report. If there is insufficient space for any of your comments please add at the end of the questionnaire. If you have any queries or need any assistance in completing the questionnaire please get in touch with your local contact. Please complete the questionnaire by 6th September and return it to your local contact or Idridgehay Village Stores, or leave out for collection in the envelope provided, on.................................................... Yours sincerely John Wiltshire, Chairman VIA Steering Committee Your local contact is 1.
