The adjoining stables & cottages have been demolished and a car park created The Caldon Canal Society was formed by the Stoke Boat Club in April 1963 and subsequently British Waterways Board, Stoke-on-Trent City Council and Staffordshire County Council commenced its restoration in 1972, re-opening it to navigation in September 1974. The former Corn Store was also later refurbished in 1979 and brought into use as the Wharf Restaurant and at the same time Staffordshire County Council and British Waterways Board created the picnic area and provided toilets for visitors. The Froghall Wharf Passenger Service was also introduced by Jacki and Bill Young to run private charter trips in the butty Birdswood which continued into the mid-1980’s at least3. 3 Planning permission for a 12 month mooring of Birdswood was granted in 1978 (approval no. SMD/1978/1136 and renewed in 1979 (SMD/1979/1379) and again in 1983 (SMD/1983/0437) Page 10 of 17 NAS_Admin:PROJECTS:2016:1618 Froghall Wharf:(D)consents:(Db)planning-LBC:1618 DRAFT CDAS comp.doc _______________________________________________________ Froghall Wharf | Foxt Road | Froghall | Staffordshire Conservation Design & Access Statement _______________________________________________________ Proposed alterations & covered seating area to existing Café; floating pontoon seating area and conversion of first floor to create self-catering holiday accommodation ______________________________________________________ The surviving wharf building, the former Corn Store warehouse, was Listed Grade II in December 1989, presumably shortly after the demolition of the adjoining stables and cottages, which for its ‘group value’ as part of the industrial heritage of Froghall Wharf and the dominant lime kilns. Froghall Wharf marks the far eastern boundary of the Caldon Conservation Area, which itself was designated in June 1996. The building continued to be used as a craft centre and tea shop on the ground floor, with living accommodation on the first floor, through until approx. 2010. Historic Significance: The Froghall Wharf warehouse forms an integral part of the historic Froghall Wharf canal basin and together with the canal and lime kilns serves as a significant and poignant reminder of the areas rich industrial heritage, and in stark contrast to the tranquillity of the country park, Consall Forge and Churnet Valley of today. The former Corn Store is an architecturally important historic industrial building, as reflected by its Grade II Listing, and together with the lime kilns beyond, all that survives of this once bustling canal basin. The Corn Store was built in 1785 shortly after the Caldon Canal was extended to create a new wharf closer to the end of the tramways which brought limestone down from the quarries at Caldon Low. It was part of three interconnected and related buildings – a pair of workers cottages, stables and corn store – serving the welfare of the canal horses and wharf Shires - set amongst the stacks of limestone, railway/tramway interchange, stone grinding shed and tar macadam plant. The designation of Froghall Wharf warehouse as a Grade II Listed building reflects its ‘significance’4 in conservation terms. The presence of Froghall Wharf warehouse contributes to the historic character of Froghall Wharf and the canal basin where it has heritage value and ‘significance’ through historic association, aesthetic value and social/cultural value5 and its strong contribution to the historic setting of the canal and limekilns in particular. Summary: The internal alteration works and proposed external covered seating area and floating pontoon canal basin seating area, and the change-of-use of the first floor residential accommodation into family holiday accommodation as set out in this planning and Listed Building Consent application includes; conservation fabric repairs to the existing historic warehouse building and the refurbishment of the existing ground floor Café, the associated construction of a floating pontoon seating area and attached walkway, and the construction of a pitched-roofed covered external seating area on the south east side referencing the roof line and form of the former link building to the adjoining stables and cottages that were demolished in the mid-late 1970’s; and the conversion - and planning ‘change-of-use’ - of the existing first floor residential accommodation to become a self- catering holiday flat. 4 NPPF, p.56 5 English Heritage Conservation Principles, 2008, p.27 Page 11 of 17 NAS_Admin:PROJECTS:2016:1618 Froghall Wharf:(D)consents:(Db)planning-LBC:1618 DRAFT CDAS comp.doc _______________________________________________________ Froghall Wharf | Foxt Road | Froghall | Staffordshire Conservation Design & Access Statement _______________________________________________________ Proposed alterations & covered seating area to existing Café; floating pontoon seating area and conversion of first floor to create self-catering holiday accommodation ______________________________________________________ Froghall Wharf warehouse is a heritage asset6 of national and local historic and architectural significance7. The proposed conservation repairs, alteration, extension and refurbishment of the building will make a positive contribution to the value of the historic industrial heritage of the wharf and its interpretation; to the enjoyment of the country park and the sustainability of the Caldon Canal Conservation Area; whilst the conversion to holiday accommodation will provide a sustainable use and income stream to help maintain and preserve the character of the warehouse building and its setting.

The process of conservation of a building must not stand in the way of change, but help to manage it in a positive and proactive way. The value, or 'significance' that we place on historic buildings distinguishes how important they are, and how they should be treated now and by future generations.9 Philosophy: The general conservation aim of the proposed works to the former Corn Store at Froghall Wharf is to preserve and enhance the historic fabric as much as possible, whilst facilitating and providing for its modern use as a canalside Café and new use of the first floor as holiday accommodation, as a means to create a sustainable future for the building that can also be enjoyed by members of the public. Contributing to this aim the conservation principles to be adopted are; • to secure the preservation of architectural and historic building fabric; • to maintain the historic and architectural integrity of the site and buildings; • to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the historic fabric and its setting; • to employ appropriate conservation techniques in the reinstatement (where appropriate), repair and maintenance of historic fabric and theory; • to restore only the elements that can be evidenced by historic design and that can be authentically reproduced

  • Froghall Basin, Caldon Canal
    AINA CASE STUDY TOURISM AND BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT Froghall Basin, Caldon Canal Boats moored in the restored basin at Froghall, marking the start of the old Uttoxeter Canal Restoring an old canal terminus with enthusiastic volunteer support Volunteers from the Caldon & Uttoxeter Canals Trust, the Waterway Recovery Group and the Inland Waterways Association began restoring the Uttoxeter Canal at Froghall in February 2003. The volunteers worked in partnership with British Waterways on an £800,000 rural regeneration project called 'Destination Froghall', based around the attractive landscapes in the heart of the Churnet Valley, to improve opportunities for both visitors and boaters The Caldon Canal terminates at its former junction with the now derelict Uttoxeter Canal, close to much industrial archaeology and steep wooded valleys of scenic value. Dramatic old limekilns have been preserved around the terminus, close to old canal stables and a warehouse, to show where limestone was once transhipped by tramways from the Cauldon limestone quarries to waiting narrowboats and rail wagons on the North Staffordshire Railway (now preserved in close proximity to the canal as the Churnet Valley Railway). The volunteer work resulted in the restoration and reopening of the first lock and basin of the Uttoxeter Canal to provide permanent and floating moorings for visiting boats, footpaths for easy access around the site, seating and appropriate landscape work. Habitat improvements were also carried out including pond creation and marshland work. Construction work respected the historic environment and new stone masonry was used for lock chamber repairs, copings, quoins, cills and retaining walls. The completed scheme includes a fully restored operational lock, new paddles, operating gear and a new timber footbridge.

  • Local Environment Agency Pi
    local environment agency pi DOVE ENVIRONMENTAL OVERVIEW AUGUST 1999 Ashbourne Dove LEAP Foreword I am delighted to introduce the Consultation Draft for the Dove Local Environment Agency Plan. This is the third LEAP to be produced in the Upper Trent Area of the Midlands Region and looks at environmental issues within the River Dove catchment. The Agency in consultation with key organisations has identified a number of environmental issues relevant to this area. We need to confirm that we have addressed all current issues and the options to resolve them, taking into account the often conflicting demands on the environment by its users. The LEAP process will provide a vision for the environmental needs of the River Dove area. It will provide a framework within which we can seek to develop new partnerships with organisations and bodies with whom we wish to share a common approach on environmental , issues. This report is published as part of our commitment to being open and consulting with others about our work. This will be part of a major consultation exercise and marks the start of a three month period of consultation. Following the consultation period the Agency will produce a five year action plan which will set out a costed programme of work by the Agency and other organisations. Annual reviews over the five year period will report on significant achievements and progress being made on the issues. Your views are extremely important. Only by letting us know your opinions will we be able to make a real difference to your local environment.

Potteries and Churnet Valley 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.
