  • Coalville Fringe Assessment
    Urban Fringe 1: Western edge of Thringstone and New Swannington 1: View from School Lane 2: View from Red Hill Lane Element Assessment Score The Coalfield: Gently undulating landscape with effects of past and present coal and clay working. It displays a relatively dense pattern of former mining towns and villages characterised by 19th century mining terraces which follow the roads. The landscape is characterised by mixed farmland although away from settlements the land is mostly arable. There is generally low woodland cover. The land contains areas of restored land, some including establishing heathland, once far more extensive. Around Coalville the landscape is influenced by Bardon 21 warehousing, Bardon quarry and other light industrial development. Bardon Hill and quarry are features within views. The assessment notes that the land is part of the National Forest. Northern tip is part of Charnwood Forest: The underlying pre-Cambrian rocks result in a varied, hilly landform with exposed crags and rocky knolls and fast-flowing streams, resulting in a distinctive County Landscape character. The area has a high concentration of mixed deciduous and coniferous woodland, including many ancient woodland sites, hedges and hedgerow trees, some of which is unmanaged. The character area area is characterised by an intimate mixture of woodland and farmland in mixed arable and pasture uses. The area’s acidic soils support pockets of heathland vegetation, particularly around rocky outcrops, where the land has never been taken into cultivation. There is variable field patterns, with irregular fields often bounded by mixed hedges contrasted with long narrow rectilinear fields with stone walls.

    HS2 Ltd ‘2018 Working Draft Environmental Statement’ Consultation Response of Leicestershire County Council December 2018 Structure of this response This Response to the HS2 Ltd Working Draft Environmental Statement (WDES) by is split into four parts. These are as follows: PART 1: Document Introduction and Main areas of Concern PART 2: Response to WDES Vol 2 – Community Areas LA03, LA04 and LA05 PART 3: Response to WDES Vol 2 – Route-wide Effects PART 4: Response to WDES Vol 3 – Off-route Effects PART 5: Appendices For any enquires about this response, please contact: [email protected] 1 | Page PART 1: Document Introduction and Maim areas of Concern i) This document and its appendices comprise Leicestershire County Council’s (the Council’s) response to the Working Draft Environmental Statement (WDES) for HS2 Phase 2b (the proposed scheme). We issue this response in the spirit of contributing to the processes surrounding this vast infrastructure project, but must include the caveat that the Council can only respond to the material to hand and further intensive work with HS2 Ltd is required to fully understand the impacts for Leicestershire and the most appropriate mitigation. ii) The Council recognises that the WDES is a draft document. However, it is disappointing that even in draft; there is a distinct lack of information provided in sections of the WDES, especially regarding the proposed scheme’s constructional and operational impacts and in respect of its design. But, the Council have determined to use this as an opportunity to shape the design and mitigation across the County. Where clear mitigation is not yet defined, the Council will seek to secure assurances from HS2 Ltd that further work will be carried out to inform the preparation of the Hybrid Bill, including HS2 Ltd preparing an Interim Transport Assessment (including sensitivity testing), and during the Parliamentary processes.
