Andy Wilson Chief Executive (National Park Officer) Chris France Director of Planning Appendix 1 Appeal Decision Site visit made on 26 February 2019 by Laura Renaudon LLM LARTPI Solicitor an Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State Decision date: 27th March 2019 Appeal Ref: APP/W9500/D/18/3217651 Ainthorpe House, 1 Brook Lane, Ainthorpe, Whitby YO21 2JR • The appeal is made under section 78 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 against a refusal to grant planning permission. • The appeal is made by Mr. Mark Hall against the decision of North York Moors National Park Authority. • The application Ref NYM/2018/0587/FL, dated 29 August 2018, was refused by notice dated 29 October 2018. • The development proposed is a replacement domestic store (part retrospective) revised scheme to NYM/2018/0372/FL. Decision 1. The appeal is dismissed. Procedural Matters 2. The proposal is described as ‘part retrospective’ by the parties but at the time of my site visit I saw that the external elements of it had been completed. Internally, it differs from the submitted plans in that the ‘Storage Area’ is partitioned off completely. I have considered the proposal as built. 3. The application description was amended by the Authority on 11 September 2018 to ‘demolition of former farm workers restroom and construction of domestic store building together with retaining wall (part retrospective) (revised scheme to NYM/2018/0372/FL)’, to which the appellant has not objected. Main Issue 4. The main issue is the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the area. Reasons 5. Ainthorpe House forms part of a substantial building to the south of Ainthorpe Lane in Ainthorpe, a small settlement between Danby and Castleton. It is accessed from Brook Lane close to its junction with Ainthorpe Lane. The acute angle of the junction between those roads, and the undeveloped triangular area between them at the junction, is such that the property faces onto both roads. The land rises from the north to the south and the house is set back to the south away from the roads, behind a low-lying garage to the north west of the site at the bottom of the hill. The appeal building lies between this garage https://www.gov.uk/planning-inspectorate Appeal Decision APP/W9500/D/18/3217651 and the house, on the western side of the front curtilage. There is substantial tree cover at the road frontage of this and the neighbouring property to the east, but the property is prominent in views from the approaches along Ainthorpe Lane and Brook Lane from the west. It is also visible from Easton Lane to the east, and from the road and raised footway on Ainthorpe Lane to the north. It is largely surrounded by a stone wall of around a metre in height. 6. A previous building on the site of the appeal building has been demolished, or substantially so, and constructed in its place is a new stone building with a pitched slate roof. It is domestic in appearance, with sash windows facing east into the curtilage, with accompanying shutters, and doors to the south and west. It stands proud of the garden wall and is particularly prominent to its northern end as the wall slopes away, notwithstanding the addition of tree planting around the building. In isolation it is an attractive building, but it is inappropriately prominent in its context, detracting attention from the host dwelling and disturbing the otherwise open front curtilage of the property. The development therefore fails to comply with Policy DP19 of the North York Moors Core Strategy and Development Policies document of November 2008, which requires new development not to detract from the character or form of the original dwelling or its setting in the landscape. Nor does it conform with the advice in the North York Moors Design Guide Supplementary Planning Document of June 2008 that outbuildings should be located in unobtrusive positions in relation to the main dwelling, and it does not accord with design advice in the National Planning Policy Framework of February 2019 requiring developments to be sympathetic to local character and add to the overall quality of the area. 7. There are other outbuildings in the vicinity, some of which are gable-ended and prominent in the roadside to Brook Lane, but their context is different, in that the properties to which they relate face onto Ainthorpe Lane. Those subservient outbuildings are legibly in the rear gardens of those properties. 8. No objection is raised to the demolition of the former building, but insufficient detail of those demolition works, and whether or not they were carried out as a discrete operation, has been supplied to enable me to consider granting permission for that element of the development. The appellant contends that the building results in a negligible change from the former building, and that flat or mono-pitched roofs, as the former building had, are not normally acceptable in the National Park. The existing building is considerably more obtrusive than the previous building, which has in any event been demolished and so is not my starting point for consideration of the existing development, which I find to be harmful. Whether siting it elsewhere in the curtilage could lead to a proliferation of structures is not a matter for my determination in the present appeal. Conclusion 9. For the above reasons, the development does not comply with the development plan for the area and therefore the appeal is dismissed.

  • Roseberry Topping a Short Tour of the Celebrated Landmark the Book “Roseberry Topping”
    Roseberry Topping a short tour of the celebrated landmark The book “Roseberry Topping” This presentation is taken from a book, published in 2006, by the local history group Great Ayton Community Archaeology and the landscape photographer Joe Cornish, who lives in Great Ayton. All 3,000 copies of the publication were sold in six months or so, and copies rarely, if ever, appear on the second-hand market. Geology Roseberry Topping consists of almost horizontal strata arranged like a layer cake. Saltwick Sandstone cap Whitby Mudstone (with jet at lower levels) Cleveland Ironstone Staithes Sandstone Origin of the name The name Roseberry Topping derives from Othenesberg, Old Norse for the hill of Odin, named by the Scandinavian invaders. The initial “R” arose from the village of Newton-under- Roseberry, with alliteration of the “r” of “under”. Toppinn is Old Norse for hill. This became Anglicised into Topping. Roseberry is the only location in Britain to be overtly named after Odin, and was clearly held in high regards by the Scandinavians. Lord Rosebery In spite of the slightly different spelling, the title “Lord Rosebery” does derive from the Topping. The Earldom of Roseberry was created in 1703 by Queen Anne, in recognition of Sir Archibald Primrose’s support for William of Orange. The Primrose family owned land near Roseberry Topping, and thought the name “Roseberry” had a good sound to it, hence they adopted the name for the title. Over the years it lost one of its “r” letters. The Fifth Earl, shown here, is remembered for having three ambitions; to marry the richest woman in England, to become Prime Minister and to win the Derby with one of his horses.

In the early days of the club this publication formed the focus of information desemmination and was published continuously from 1881 until 1932. Despite the enormous changes in land use which have occurred in the last 60 years, and indeed the change in geographical area brought about by the fairly recent formation of Cleveland County, many of the old records published in the Proceedings still hold true and even those species which have disappeared or contracted in range are of value in providing useful base line data for modern day surveys.

  • The Yorkshire Matterhorn
    Viewpoint The Yorkshire Matterhorn Time: 15 mins Region: Yorkshire and the Humber Landscape: rural Location: National Trust car park at Roseberry Topping, off A173, near Newton under Roseberry, Cleveland, North York Moors, TS9 6QS Grid reference: NZ 57000 12800 Driving through the gently rolling landscape on the edge of the North York Moors, you cannot fail to notice the craggy peak of Roseberry Topping standing proudly like a church spire amongst a cluster of cottage rooftops. The hill is known locally as ‘the Yorkshire Matterhorn’ because its shape reminds people of the pyramidal peak of that mighty mountain. Straddling the Swiss and Italian border, and standing 4478m tall, the Matterhorn is one of Europe’s highest mountains. What has produced Roseberry Topping’s distinctive shape and made visitors think of a mountain over 965 miles away? There are two reasons for the curious profile of Roseberry Topping. The first is down to geology, or the rocks that make up this area. Roseberry Topping is rather like a layer cake, with bands of different rocks sitting one on top of the other. The base is sandstone, next is a layer of ironstone, then mudstone, and it is topped off with a sandstone cap. The other hills in the area are also layered from these stones, but most do not have a sandstone cap. Over the years wind, rain and ice have battered the local hills, slowly breaking down the rocks and washing them away in a process called erosion. This has left the rounded moors we see today. Sandstone, however, is a harder rock than the others in the area, so the cap on Roseberry Topping acted like a shield and gave it more protection.

  • Review of Polling Districts and Polling Places 2018 Consultation Report
    Review of Polling Districts And Polling Places 2018 Consultation Report NOTICE OF POLLING DISTRICTS & POLLING STATION REVIEW Review of Polling Districts and Polling Places in accordance with the requirements of Section 18C(1) of the Representation of the People Act 1983 and Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013. The Local Government Boundary Commission for England has now published its final recommendations for new electoral arrangements for Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council. The recommendations must now be approved by Parliament and a draft order, to bring in to force their recommendations, has been laid in Parliament. Subject to Parliamentary Scrutiny, the new electoral arrangements will come into force at the Local Elections in 2019. The Local Government Boundary Commission for England has recommended an increase in the number of wards within the Borough from 22 to 24. Each Ward is required to be sub-divided into polling districts; the number of polling districts will however decrease from 101 to 86. All polling districts have been re-categorised using with new reference letters which are more meaningful to the Ward and Parliamentary Constituency, for example BMTAM, where BMT reflects the ward (Belmont), A defines the sub district and M is the constituency the ward belongs to (Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland). A polling place is provided for electors living within each polling district. The changes to Wards mean that the Council was required to carry out a review of polling districts and polling places within the Borough, pursuant to Section 18C of the Representation of the People Act 1983. Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council is therefore conducting a review of the polling districts and polling places.

One story about Skinningrove’s past that is still See their websites for information about this recounted is that of the “sea-man” or merman who ambitious project to build a working scale model of allegedly visited in about 1530. Writing in the early Loftus mine, the internal railway system and part of 17th century, William Camden states “Upon the shore, the zig zag connection to the main line. Skengrave, a small village, thrives by the great variety of fish which it takes; where it is reported that, seventy years ago, they caught a sea-man, who lived upon raw fish for some days, but at last, taking his opportunity, he made his escape into his own element. When the winds are laid and the sea is calm… a hideous groaning is oftentimes heard in these parts on a sudden, and then the fishermen are afraid to go to sea.” Another account claims that during his stay “fayre maidens were welcomest guests to his harbour, whome he woulde beholde with a very earnest countenaynce, as if his phlegmatic breast had been touched with the sparke of love.” (J.W. Ord 1846) Skinningrove Station above the village on the Loftus to Middlesbrough line. It opened in 1875 and closed in 1958.
