  • Appendix 3 Baseline Information
    Appendix 3 Baseline Information This report sets out the findings to date of the baseline data collection exercise undertaken for the SA process. In particular it was used to gain a fuller understanding of the issues in the Plan Area and to inform the appraisal. However, it is appreciated that there are some omissions in the information base, which in any case will be subject to change over time. These omissions will be addressed as soon as possible and changes will be monitored. A list of the ‘implications for the plan’ is inserted at the end of each section, to show the ways in which the Plan could impact on the matters identified. Demography Population Distribution and Structure Table 1 provides details of the size and distribution of the population, the gender and age structure. It can be seen that small concentrations of population exist in the two towns of Oundle and Thrapston, but with the majority spread across the rural area, mainly resident within the well developed pattern of villages and hamlets. While there are some significant variations in the age structure across the Plan Area it is apparent that as a whole it is comparable with the situation in England and Wales and the Region, with slightly more in the 16-64 age range and a little less in the 65+ range. In many ways the age structure of the population is similar to that for the District of East Northamptonshire as a whole. The age structure for the District is illustrated by Figure 1. The Office of National Statistics has made some population growth predictions for the Plan area (2003 based sub-national predictions).

  • PILTON, STOKE DOYLE and WADENHOE PARISH COUNCIL
    PILTON, STOKE DOYLE and WADENHOE PARISH COUNCIL Consultation on Pre-Submission Draft East Northamptonshire Local Plan Part 2/ 2010-2031 (February 2021) Pilton, Stoke Doyle and Wadenhoe Parish Council (PSDW) accepts that the Local Plan has to be consistent with national policy regarding housing requirements, but questions whether some of the recommended options can be justified when alternative proposals have been put forward with substantial local support? For example, in the case of Oundle Town Council’s emerging Neighbourhood Plan, we are not convinced that the concentration of housing into the three sites favoured by the Local Plan can be justified instead of the seven sites that local people prefer. If one of the tests of soundness is whether this Local Plan has been positively prepared, then in this case, by ignoring the alternative options in Oundle’s draft Neighbourhood Plan, local opinion is not been given parity in the Local Plan as it claims it should be (para 1.20, p.17). PSDW has particular reservations about EN 25: The building of 70 houses on land to the rear of the cemetery, Stoke Doyle Road. Access to this site on the main road, which people in our villages use frequently to get to Oundle market town, would be severely affected by the use of this road for a development of this scale. Neither the road in its current form, nor Warren Bridge, could withstand such a huge increase in the volume of construction and residential traffic. In terms of the test of soundness, an alternative access from Benefield Road, and a smaller concentration of housing would be easier to justify.
