Stainforth PC None received. Highways North There are no local highway authority objections to the Yorkshire proposed development. The access is existing with well over the required 2m x 45m visibilty. Parking and turning is in required limits within the site. Chief Technical Officer All work is to be carried out, to ensure compliance with the Building Regulations 2010. CEHO Craven No objections subject to conditions requiring; - further investigation in to the potential for contamination within the site, including a Phase I desk based report and, if required a Phase II intrusive site investigation report, - limited construction hours to minimise disruption, - the submission of a dust management plan to control the generation of dust during construction, - follow the recommendations as shown in the submitted Flood Risk Assessment.

United Utilities Water No objections subject to conditions relating to; Ltd - surface water drainage, to be carried out according to the flood risk assessment and drainage management strategy - foul water to be drained on separate systems, - management and maintenance of sustainable drainage systems, An informative relating to obtaining a water supply is also recommended. C/48/615B 25 Aug 2020 Schedule No:3 Yorkshire Water Water Supply Services Ltd A water supply can be provided under the terms of the Water Industry Act, 1991. Waste Water Please refer to United Utilities (North West Water). North Yorkshire County None received. Council Historic England The proposed development is located with the ‘Craven and Murgatroyd lime works 400m north east of Langcliffe Mill’ Scheduled Monument. Historic England considers that the proposed development is well thought-out, and designed to reference the history of the site and to enhance the industrial feel of the monument. It will also secure the sustainable management of the monument, the detail of which must be laid-out in a Management Plan. On the basis of the information submitted, Historic England supports the application (full comments can be viewed via the extranet). Network Rail Network Rail has placed a holding objection on this application on the basis that part of the site was shown to be Network Rail land and they expressed concerns regarding the potential for flooding affecting the trackway. The proposal has been amended to omit the Network Rail land and the drainage engineers have confirmed that sustainable surface water drainage will be incorporated into the proposed development. Network Rail has been reconsulted on this but has not responded. Network Rail has also recommended that conditions are imposed relating to excavations and vehicle safety protection measures along the boundary. Natural England This application does not appear to have carried out any form of landscape assessment. This development is within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and should take into account the landscape impact of the proposal, if this is the case then before Natural England are able to proceed any further with the consultation a Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment is required. This should include a photomontage of the proposed development in a winter setting, with a map to demonstrate where the photographs were taken from. We refer you to the Landscape Institute Guidelines for Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment for further guidance. Harrogate Police Station The recommendations below provides a summary of the issues relating to Designing Out Crime, which should be addressed prior to planning permission being granted, in order to ensure that the development provides a safe and secure environment for all users; C/48/615B 25 Aug 2020 Schedule No:3 - introduction of clear signage to show route of Public Right of Way (PRoW) - re-locating of cycle parking currently near to Unit 11 - introduction of physical barrier between PRoW and parking area - consider introduction of formal surveillance to car park near to aggregate store - provision of security lighting to each unit - provision of appropriate lighting to internal routes and car parks Wildlife Conservation In summary; Officer Impact on European Protected Species (EPS) and Priority Habitats - So long as the applicants can demonstrate (a) no harm to populations of EPS (to be established by results from bat activity surveys) and (b) realistic feasibility of creating replacement OMHPDL Priority Habitat, I would conclude that the proposals are not contrary to Local Plan Policy W1 provided the mitigation and compensation measures discussed above are secured. Biodiversity enhancement - a clear distinction must be made when negotiating the S106 between measures required to mitigate or compensate for loss and that which is required in order to enhance wildlife proportionately. Although there are still matters to be negotiated/decided about the proportionate enhancement to be obtained, I do not think it is demonstrable that the proposal is contrary to Policy W2. Trees & Woodlands In summary, the Trees and Woodlands Officer has commented that; - there has been significant tree and vegetation removal which was been agreed through the S211 notification and through that process we agreed for some tree groups and trees to be retained. Those tree groups should still be retained and shown as such on a comprehensive landscaping plan, - an arboricultural method statement should also be submitted which would show the RPAs of the retained trees overlain on the plan, position and specification of protective fencing, any ground protection needed. This will dictate the ground surfacing. - there will need to be a comprehensive landscape plan for the site which should include a greater level of plantinng than currently shown. - due to bat activity/ vulnerability the landscaping should strengthen and thicken up tree cover around the north end of the depot site, thickening up of the existing trees and vegetated areas around the edges of the new parking area on the quarry floor and new aggregate store, plant north of the rebuilt stone building south C/48/615B 25 Aug 2020 Schedule No:3 west of Hoffman kiln and the banking along the far side (west side) of Hoffman kiln, - a biodiversity enhancement plan is required.

  • Advisory Visit River Ribble, Settle September 2011
    Advisory Visit River Ribble, Settle September 2011 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit undertaken by Tim Jacklin and Gareth Pedley of the Wild Trout Trust to the River Ribble, Settle, North Yorkshire on 12th September, 2011. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Bob Garnett, Mike Harding, John Walker and Arthur Padgett of Settle Anglers’ Association (www.settleanglers.co.uk) and Neil Handy, Environment Agency Fisheries Officer. Normal convention is applied throughout the report with respect to bank identification, i.e. the banks are designated left hand bank (LHB) or right hand bank (RHB) whilst looking downstream. 2.0 Catchment and Reach Overview The River Ribble rises in the Yorkshire Dales and flows broadly south west to join the Irish Sea below Preston. The reach seen during this visit was north and south of the town of Settle, North Yorkshire between grid references SD 82201 65907 (upstream) and SD 80733 61277 (downstream) (Figure 1). The river here crosses the south-western edge of the Yorkshire Dales into the Forest of Bowland Natural Area (www.naturalareas.naturalengland.org.uk/Science/natural/NA_search.asp), occupying a transitional area between the upland, predominantly limestone areas of the Dales and the flatter valley floor with a geology of millstone grit overlain by glacial till. Land use in the vicinity of the river (outside Settle town) is largely livestock farming and most of the land appears to be in Entry Level Stewardship (the most basic level of agri-environment agreement), with small areas in Higher Level Stewardship and Countryside Stewardship (e.g.

  • The Caves of Giggleswick Scar – Examples of Deglacial Speleogenesis?

Phillip J MURPHY 1, Trevor L FAULKNER 2, Thomas C LORD 3, and John A THORP 4 1 School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds, LS2 9JT, UK. e-mail: [email protected] 2 Limestone Research Group, Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham, B15 2TT, UK. e-mail: [email protected] 3 Lower Winskill, Langcliffe, Settle, BD24 9PZ, UK. e-mail: [email protected] 4 5 Holme Park, High Bentham, Lancaster, LA2 7ND, UK. e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The prominent Giggleswick Scar at the South Craven Fault extremity of the Carboniferous limestone of the Askrigg Block in North Yorkshire, UK, contains relict phreatic caves whose speleogenesis is enigmatic. This paper examines the local geomorphological evidence and proposes that some, but not necessarily all, karst features along and above the Scar formed after the Last Glacial Maximum. Building on a previous deglacial model for the Yorkshire Dales, it is hypothesized that inception fractures and bedding plane partings were created during isostatic uplift. These were then likely enlarged by dissolution in cold unsaturated meltwater beneath a local flowing deglacial ice- dammed lake that formed initially at an altitude of c.300m, with a catchment area of c. 2km2. Rising cupolas outside Gully Cave were probably formed at c. 18ka BP by meltwater flowing up into a moulin within the ice, which continued to be cold-based farther south.
