[email protected] Edited, Produced and Distributed by MARATHON MEDIA 3 News and Information Mark Spencer MP Update I would like to update you on a few local issues. I will soon be meeting with Severn Trent to discuss the flooding issues in Rainworth. Many of you will be aware of the issues surrounding the sewage system and the disposal of floodwater. I will continue to lobby them until we reach a long term solution. I have also met with the Chairman of Rainworth Village Hall to discuss their funding and management. The Parish Council have been very supportive and anything you can do to support this community resource would be appreciated. For example, if you are considering organising a function please bear it in mind. I have had several letters from constituents concerned to hear that the Government is considering selling off the Forestry Commission and particularly the potential sale of Sherwood Forest. I completely understand why, like me, so many of you feel so protective of our iconic woods which have been placed in legend for generations. Whenever I meet anybody, wherever in the world, when they ask where I‘m from, they instantly recognise Sherwood Forest, Robin Hood and the stories we grew up with. So, let me take this opportunity to set the record straight. The Major Oak is not for sale. That part of our ancient woodland is not owned by the Forestry Commission and therefore cannot be sold. The County Council is still working hard to promote Robin Hood and Sherwood, recognising them to be among the Crown Jewels of England‘s forestry. The legislation which has caused so much alarm is contained within the Public Bodies Bill which has just been introduced into Parliament and seeks to give individuals, businesses, civil society organisations and local authorities a much bigger role in protecting and enhancing the natural environment. On hearing the various concerns of constituents, I challenged Caroline Spelman MP, the Minister responsible for forests, before the Environmental Audit Committee and I have been assured that the Government will not compromise the protection of our most valuable and biodiverse forests. Full measures will remain in place to preserve the public benefits of woods and forests under any new ownership arrangements. Tree felling is controlled through the licensing system managed by the Forestry Commission, public rights of way and access will be unaffected, statutory protection for wildlife will remain in force and there will be grant incentives for new planting that can be applied for. When publishing our proposals we will explore further the options for securing and increasing the wide range of public benefits currently delivered by Government ownership and how they might be achieved at lower cost. The Forestry Commission owns only 18% of the UK‘s forests, chiefly managed woodland. Some of it is producing much of our domestic timber, other areas are almost entirely devoted to public benefit and others are a mix of the two. Any potential buyers of the Forestry Commission‘s share would still be subject to stringent planning regulation so that any development which would jeopardise the future of Sherwood Forest simply would not be granted planning permission. We may also find that other potential buyers may include organisations such as the Woodland Trust who would serve as excellent guardians. Sherwood Pines is owned by the Forestry Commission and is clearly a woodland dedicated to public amenity. Like many of you, I have enjoyed cycling and walking around the area but have still to pluck up the courage to ―Go Ape‖! This is a good example of the kind of positive development that is possible and making our forests both financially viable and open to public use is to be encouraged. I hope that this has gone some way to explaining the steps the Government has taken and that those of you who feared for the future of Sherwood Forest have had your fears allayed. I will always be a staunch protector and advocate for Sherwood Forest and will do everything I can to promote and preserve it for future generations. My surgeries continue to be held on every fourth Friday at Dukeries and every second Saturday at my constituency office. If you would like to arrange an appointment, please call my office at 0115 968 1186. I intend to continue my ‗roaming surgeries‘ and will advertise those in due course.

  • Landscape Evolution
    APPENDIX 5 APPENDIX 5: LANDSCAPE EVOLUTION This information has been taken from the Nottingham Landscape Guidelines published in 1997 undertaken by Nottinghamshire County Council. Magnesian Limestone Ridge ‘There is still much to learn about the development of the landscapes of the Magnesian Limestone Ridge . Considered to have been a remote wooded area, of late interest to settlers, it has often been considered only as part of Sherwood Forest. While this latter is indeed true, it is not the whole story which, for the want of detailed study, can only be sketched in outline and with some imprecision. Little coherent can be said about the prehistoric and Roman landscapes of the region. Evidence of some of the earlier human occupation and activity in the East Midlands, during the later Ice Ages and after, comes from Creswell Crags. The caves of the limestone gorge provided shelter for the hunter-gathers who 12,000 years ago moved through a landscape which was gradually changing from tundra to birch and pine forest and would eventually develop into mixed oak forest, with alder, oak, elm and lime. While Creswell is the best known and studied, other gorges in the Magnesian Limestone have caves which were occupied by both people and animals at these early dates, and also later. Human occupation of significance has yet to be demonstrated at Pleasley Vale, but the full potential of this gorge, which appears to be considerably filled, has not been explored. Later human activity on the Magnesian Limestone Ridge is indicated by the stone tools and fabrication debris of hunter-gatherer groups and of the first farmers and settlers of the Neolithic and the Early Bronze Age, which are found on the surfaces of ploughed fields.

  • Herefordshire
    SHI0001 Written evidence submitted by Mr I. Carr I would like to raise the issue of the ploughing up of river meadows on the Marches , in particular Herefordshire. Most of the river meadows are now in an arable rotation, with considerable slt movement in times of flooding. The affects the water quality and the aquatic environment as a result of silt deposition. The matter should be looked into. I would hesitate to recommend what action to take. December 2015 SHI0002 Written evidence submitted by Mr S. Norris 1. I am writing in response to your inquiry into soil health. By way of introduction, I am a PhD student that has just submitted my Thesis; I have been working/studying soil heath and ecology for 10 years. This response is the view of myself only and does not reflect the view of any organisation that I have been affiliated with. As this is a personal response to your inquiry I will attempt to keep my response short, however if you would like to further discuss my view I will be more than happy to assist in any way possible. How could soil health best be measured and monitored? How could the Government develop a strategy for tracking soil health? 2. Soil health should be measured through the organic matter content of soil, soil invertebrate biodiversity (Springtails and mites) and soil microbiology (fungi and bacterial) these test should be made mandatory for land managers, land owners and stakeholder in UK. These tests should be carryout every 5 years to ensure our soils are in good condition to enabling them to provide good quality food and aid with carbon sequestration.

  • Thieves & Blidworth Forest Plan
    Thieves & Blidworth Forest Plan 10 year review 2017 - 2027 Thieves & Blidworth FP Thieves & Blidworth Forest Plan Introduction This document is a brief review of the current Forest Design Plans, known as “Thieves and Harlow – Design Plan 44” and “Blidworth – Design Plan 45”. These plans expired in 2012 and were rolled over until 2017. The new plan is an amalgamation of the two current plans and is due to be consulted upon in 2017. It will be known as “Thieves and Blidworth Forest Plan” and will again run for 10 years with a mid-term review at the 5 year point. The purpose of this 10 year review is to answer the four questions set out below, in accordance with OGB 36 – Forest Design Planning. 1. Was the plan implemented properly? Approval for the forest plan was extended for 5 years when plan period expired. This was to take account of amalgamation of Forest Districts and restructuring of the Forestry Commission. Amendment process was also followed in order to fell 15 ha of conifer in the Thieves and Harlow area. Amendment process was followed in Blidworth to fell 2.9 ha of conifer and replant it with a smaller area (1.5 ha) of broadleaves. 2 | Thieves & Blidworth FP | Central Forest District | 17/03/2017 Thieves & Blidworth FP 2. Did the implementation of the plan meet the stated objectives? Thieves and Harlow Objective Met? Comment Landscape Ongoing Coupe shapes as per the current plan have been followed and thought given to the internal landscapes during forest operations. Silviculture Yes Timber production is shown to be sustainable as thinning is carried out to MTI and restocking after clearfelling is carried out within 2 years Biodiversity Ongoing Areas of heathland have been created over and nature the life of this plan and continue to be conservation managed as open space on a rotational basis.
