What Does Natural Beauty Mean in Portuguese 1 What Does Natural Beauty Mean In Portuguese Areas are designated in recognition of their national importance by the relevant public body Natural England, Natural Resources Wales, or the Northern Ireland Environment Agency. Dower suggested there was need for protection of certain naturally beautiful landscapes that were unsuitable as national parks owing to their small size and lack of wildness. The 2019 Landscape Review Report additionally favourably mentions proposals not listed in Natural England s list from Sandstone Ridge and the Vale of Belvoir. The most recently confirmed is the Tamar Valley AONB in 1995, 6 although the existing Clwydian Range AONB was extended in 2012 to form the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley AONB, and the Strangford Lough and Lecale Coast AONBs were merged and redesignated as a single AONB in 2010. England Edit. There are growing concerns among environmental and countryside groups that AONB status is increasingly under threat from development. The AONBs of England and Wales together cover around 18 of the countryside in the two countries. There are two secondary aims meeting the need for quiet enjoyment of the countryside and having regard for the interests of those who live and work there. However, the National Association of AONBs is working to increase awareness of AONBs in local communities, 4 and, in 2014, successfully negotiated to have the boundaries of AONBs in England shown on Google Maps. More subtle threats include creeping sub-urbanization and horsiculture. In place of AONB, Scotland uses the similar national scenic area NSA designation. AONBs vary greatly in terms of size, type and use of land, and whether they are partly or wholly open to the public. However, further regulation and protection of AONBs in England and Wales was added by the Countryside and Rights of Way CRoW Act 2000, under which new designations are now made, 10 11 and the government stated in the National Planning Policy Framework March 2012 that AONBs and national parks have equal status when it comes to planning decisions on landscape issues. They also differ from national parks in their more limited opportunities for extensive outdoor recreation. Redesignated as a single AONB in 2010. However, the Cotswolds Conservation Board announced in September that they were re-styling the area name and it is now known as the Cotswolds National Landscape. The smallest AONB is the Isles of Scilly 1976 , 16 km 2 6. AONBs in general remain the responsibility of their local authorities by means of special committees that include members appointed by the minister which. An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty AONB; Welsh Ardal o Harddwch Naturiol Eithriadol ; AHNE is an area of countryside in England, Wales, or Northern Ireland that has been designated for conservation due to its significant landscape value. and by parishes, and only very limited statutory duties were imposed on local authorities within an AONB by the original 1949 Act.

The following are formal proposals for new AONBs submitted to Natural England 21. as North Derry AONB, extended and redesignated as Binevenagh AONB in 2006 redesignated as Ring of Gullion in 1991 Lecale Coast AONB. To achieve these aims, AONBs rely on planning controls and practical countryside management. Writing in 2006, Pro- fessor Adrian Phillips listed threats facing AONBs. Poet Laureate Simon Armitage wrote a poem Fugitives , commissioned by the National Association of AONBs, which he read on Arnside Knott on 21 September 2019 to launch the celebration of the 70th anniversary of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act. As they have the same landscape quality, AONBs may be compared to the national parks of England and Wales. The Glover Report in 2019 made various recommendations regarding the future of AONB s but as at 1 November 2020 the government has yet to respond to those recommendations.

There are 46 AONBs in Britain 33 wholly in England, four wholly in Wales, one that straddles the Anglo-Welsh border and eight in Northern Ireland. The AONBs of Northern Ireland together cover about 70 of Northern Ireland s coastline. Proposed Areas Edit. The Weymouth Relief Road in Dorset was constructed between 2008 and 2011, after environmental groups lost a High Court challenge to prevent its construction. Dyffryn Gwy. He wrote that the apparent big threats were uncertainty over future support for land management, increasing development pressures, the impacts of globalization, and climate change. AONBs in Northern Ireland was designated originally under the Amenity Lands NI Act 1965; subsequently under the Nature Conservation and Amenity Lands NI Order 1985. 15 Three particular AONBs were cited the Dorset AONB threatened by a road plan, the threat of a football stadium in the Sussex Downs AONB, and, larger than any other, a 1 billion plan by Imperial College London to build thousands of houses and offices on hundreds of acres of AONB land on the Kent Downs at Wye. The idea for what would eventually become the AONB designation was first put forward by John Dower in his 1945 Report to the Government on National Parks in England and Wales. Two of the AONBs the Cotswolds and the Chilterns , which extend into a large number of local authority areas, have their own statutory bodies, known as conservation boards.

The following are formal proposals for new AONBs submitted to Natural England 21. as North Derry AONB, extended and redesignated as Binevenagh AONB in 2006 redesignated as Ring of Gullion in 1991 Lecale Coast AONB. 16 In September 2007 government approval was finally given for the development of a new football ground for Brighton 2 and Hove Albion within the boundaries of the Sussex Downs AONB, after a fierce fight by conservationists. The AONBs are collectively represented by the National Association for Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty NAAONB , an independent registered charity acting on behalf of AONBs and their partners, which uses the slogan Landscapes for Life. Dower s recommendation for the designation of these other amenity areas was eventually embodied in the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949 as the AONB designation. AONBs in England and Wales were originally created under the same legislation as the national parks, the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. Former Areas Edit.

  • LCA Introduction
    The Hambleton and Howardian Hills CAN DO (Cultural and Natural Development Opportunity) Partnership The CAN DO Partnership is based around a common vision and shared aims to develop: An area of landscape, cultural heritage and biodiversity excellence benefiting the economic and social well-being of the communities who live within it. The organisations and agencies which make up the partnership have defined a geographical area which covers the south-west corner of the North York Moors National Park and the northern part of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The individual organisations recognise that by working together resources can be used more effectively, achieving greater value overall. The agencies involved in the CAN DO Partnership are – the North York Moors National Park Authority, the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, English Heritage, Natural England, Forestry Commission, Environment Agency, Framework for Change, Government Office for Yorkshire and the Humber, Ryedale District Council and Hambleton District Council. The area was selected because of its natural and cultural heritage diversity which includes the highest concentration of ancient woodland in the region, a nationally important concentration of veteran trees, a range of other semi-natural habitats including some of the most biologically rich sites on Jurassic Limestone in the county, designed landscapes, nationally important ecclesiastical sites and a significant concentration of archaeological remains from the Neolithic to modern times. However, the area has experienced the loss of many landscape character features over the last fifty years including the conversion of land from moorland to arable and the extensive planting of conifers on ancient woodland sites.
