The consultation documents were published on www.somersetconsults.org.uk and were accompanied by a questionnaire. The County Council's Minerals and Waste policy team encouraged respondents to reply via this website if possible and provided printed copies of the consultation document via Somerset’s libraries and Council Offices or on request. The team promoted the consultation via email and letter mailings, as well as through the Somerset County Council website. Local media were involved, presentations were given at district and parish events, briefing notes were circulated at district and parish events, and meetings were arranged with consultees. Postcards were sent out to approximately 3000 residents who live in, or in close proximity to existing minerals consultation areas – highlighting that the Minerals Options consultation was underway and how to get involved. Prior to the consultation, all consultees (contactable by email) were emailed to determine how they wished to be notified of the Minerals Options consultation. This helped to shape the approach to consultation and engage in an optimal way. National Policy At the time of writing this document the final National Planning Policy Framework had not been published. Therefore the collation and consideration of all respondents’ representations and SCC responses in this document are made prior to the publication of the Framework. The Preferred Options document for Somerset minerals policy will be informed by consultation feedback in this document and the evolving national policy framework. Page 4 of 193 Representation summary Representations were sought on a wide range of issues. 86 respondents replied, which can be divided into 1195 representations (individual comments). The majority of respondents supported the proposals outlined, beginning with broad support for the proposed Vision and Objectives, with some constructive comments made to ensure that the final wording is as clear as possible; in particular, several representors highlighted the need for further clarity in reference to "limits set by the environment" in Objective A, and the need to ensure each Objective does not try to cover too many different ideas - in particular Objective C needs to be reviewed with this in mind. Opinion was spread on the size of crushed rock landback, with some suggesting 10 years, some 15 years (in line with policy in the adopted Minerals Local Plan) and some 20 years or more. Opinion was also mixed when additional reserves are needed for a demand that cannot be met from existing reserves (Issue A2), the approach to take on managing the shortfall in sand and gravel reserves (Issues A4) and the restoration of sites (Issue A5). On this last-named matter, broadly the same number of respondents supported restoration of sites in the East Mendips on a site-by-site basis as supported a more strategic landscape approach. There was strong support for the supply of local building stone for local demand, whilst recognising markets outside of the County and the need to support the building stone industry to maintain its economic viability. Furthermore there was support for the mineral types listed for safeguarding. There was general consensus that no further peat permissions should be granted. This aligns with the direction of national policy, in particular the emerging National Planning Policy Framework. And there was broad support for the coverage of Development Management topics proposed. In addition, comments were welcomed on a range of other issues including, but not limited to: • dormant and abandoned minerals sites in Somerset; • the importance for restoration of all minerals sites taking an holistic approach that where possible seeks to reflect changes in the industry, national planning policy, and new biodiversity targets and initiatives; • the importance of Somerset’s water resources, especially the Mendip Hills groundwater resource; and • ensuring that the County Council has a robust framework in place to consider the potential of oil and gas extraction in Somerset..

Some representations contain spelling or grammar errors. Representations have been reproduced faithfully so as not to inadvertently alter or nuance the intended meaning. Since writing this document in accordance with the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework and the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012, the emerging Somerset Minerals Core Strategy has been renamed the Somerset Minerals Plan. However, this document has not been updated to reflect this change and still refers to the Minerals Core Strategy. Page 6 of 193 1 Vision and Plan Objectives The Minerals Options Paper included the following vision and plan objectives… Vision for mineral extraction in Somerset : To ensure sustainable supply and use of minerals to meet society’s needs without unacceptable impact upon Somerset’s environment or communities. Objective A: To ensure that Somerset is able to provide an adequate and steady supply of minerals in accordance with government guidance in order to contribute to national, regional and local requirements within the limits set by the environment. Objective B: To protect Somerset’s residents from impacts on human health associated with minerals extraction and transportation whilst recognising the benefits of the minerals industry, including provision of jobs. Objective C: To protect the natural and historic environment of Somerset from impacts associated with minerals extraction and transportation recognising the potential for increased conflicts of interest due to climate change, particularly on the water environment, and opportunities for positive land use change in the long term. Objective D: To promote the efficient production and use of primary minerals, together with the minimisation of waste, increased substitution of alternative materials, and appropriate timing of release of reserves thereby reducing the impact of mineral production on climate change and protecting finite resources. Objective E: To reduce the impacts arising from minerals transportation on local communities and the climate by maximising opportunity for mineral movement by rail or water. Objective F: To seek a positive contribution from the minerals industry whilst sites are operational in terms of improved carbon management and ongoing and final site restoration incorporating environmental and community enhancements such as, biodiversity, geo -diversity, landscape, recreation and access. Page 7 of 193 Objective G: To bring together the minerals industry and local communities to identify and implement suitable reclamation schemes at dormant or abandoned mineral workings that are problematic and unlikely to work again, for the benefit of local communities or the environment. Objective H: To avoid the unnecessary sterilisation of valuable mineral resources by other types of development. Question 1: Do you agree with the vision and objectives? Summary of responses to question 1 6% (2 responses) Agree Disagree 94% (31 responses) Page 8 of 193 Detailed Responses Rep Respondents’ comment s MPA Officer response s ID (in this section, the letters refer to the different Plan Objectives) R9.3 We are pleased with both the Vision and Objective C of the main Noted. document.

  • Palaeolithic and Pleistocene Sites of the Mendip, Bath and Bristol Areas
    Proc. Univ. Bristol Spelacol. Soc, 19SlJ, 18(3), 367-389 PALAEOLITHIC AND PLEISTOCENE SITES OF THE MENDIP, BATH AND BRISTOL AREAS RECENT BIBLIOGRAPHY by R. W. MANSFIELD and D. T. DONOVAN Lists of references lo works on the Palaeolithic and Pleistocene of the area were published in these Proceedings in 1954 (vol. 7, no. 1) and 1964 (vol. 10, no. 2). In 1977 (vol. 14, no. 3) these were reprinted, being then out of print, by Hawkins and Tratman who added a list ai' about sixty papers which had come out between 1964 and 1977. The present contribution is an attempt to bring the earlier lists up to date. The 1954 list was intended to include all work before that date, but was very incomplete, as evidenced by the number of older works cited in the later lists, including the present one. In particular, newspaper reports had not been previously included, but are useful for sites such as the Milton Hill (near Wells) bone Fissure, as are a number of references in serials such as the annual reports of the British Association and of the Wells Natural History and Archaeological Society, which are also now noted for the first time. The largest number of new references has been generated by Gough's Cave, Cheddar, which has produced important new material as well as new studies of finds from the older excavations. The original lists covered an area from what is now the northern limit of the County of Avon lo the southern slopes of the Mendips. Hawkins and Tratman extended that area to include the Quaternary Burtle Beds which lie in the Somerset Levels to the south of the Mendips, and these are also included in the present list.

  • Mells River Sink — a Spelaeological Curiosity in East Mendip, Somerset
    93 Proc. Univ. Bristol Spelaeol. Soc, 1982, 16 (2), 93-104. MELLS RIVER SINK — A SPELAEOLOGICAL CURIOSITY IN EAST MENDIP, SOMERSET by W. I. STANTON ABSTRACT The site is a cleft in the side of the Mells River that acts as a resurgence in winter and a swallet in summer. An excavation, 1974-78, began 21m above, and ended 2m below, river level. It showed (hat a high-leve! resurgence was active in the Middle Devensian, and was buried under later deposits. Scattered finds of archaeological significance included Woolly Rhinoceros bones and a First Century bronze brooch. Water tracing experiments proved that the Sink is the upper end of an active underground oxbow to the Mells River, 2.5 km long. The cleft was developed along a neptunian dyke of Lower Lias age. Bubbling springs and 'cave, coral" are briefly discussed. INTRODUCTION The Mells River rises at Gurney Slade and flows east below the north flank of the Mendips to join the River Frome at Frome. It receives water from the Carboniferous Limestone resurgences of Winter Well, Gurney Slade, Ashwick Grove, St. Dunstan's Well, Whitehole, Cobby Wood, Hapsford and other smaller springs (Barrington and Stanton, 1977). Some of these resurgences fail in dry weather, and one of them, Mells River Sink, is so close to the river bed that, at times, the spring flow actually reverses and part of the river disappears down the hole. In the drought summer of 1976 about one quarter of the Mells River was lost into Mells River Sink. At the village of Mells the Mells River leaves undulating low ground to enter a wooded gorge (Wadbury Valley) incised by super imposed drainage into the north flank of East Mendip (Barrington and Stanton, 1977, p 220).

  • Somerset Geology-A Good Rock Guide
    SOMERSET GEOLOGY-A GOOD ROCK GUIDE Hugh Prudden The great unconformity figured by De la Beche WELCOME TO SOMERSET Welcome to green fields, wild flower meadows, farm cider, Cheddar cheese, picturesque villages, wild moorland, peat moors, a spectacular coastline, quiet country lanes…… To which we can add a wealth of geological features. The gorge and caves at Cheddar are well-known. Further east near Frome there are Silurian volcanics, Carboniferous Limestone outcrops, Variscan thrust tectonics, Permo-Triassic conglomerates, sediment-filled fissures, a classic unconformity, Jurassic clays and limestones, Cretaceous Greensand and Chalk topped with Tertiary remnants including sarsen stones-a veritable geological park! Elsewhere in Mendip are reminders of coal and lead mining both in the field and museums. Today the Mendips are a major source of aggregates. The Mesozoic formations curve in an arc through southwest and southeast Somerset creating vales and escarpments that define the landscape and clearly have influenced the patterns of soils, land use and settlement as at Porlock. The church building stones mark the outcrops. Wilder country can be found in the Quantocks, Brendon Hills and Exmoor which are underlain by rocks of Devonian age and within which lie sunken blocks (half-grabens) containing Permo-Triassic sediments. The coastline contains exposures of Devonian sediments and tectonics west of Minehead adjoining the classic exposures of Mesozoic sediments and structural features which extend eastward to the Parrett estuary. The predominance of wave energy from the west and the large tidal range of the Bristol Channel has resulted in rapid cliff erosion and longshore drift to the east where there is a full suite of accretionary landforms: sandy beaches, storm ridges, salt marsh, and sand dunes popular with summer visitors.

    John Cowper Powys’s A Glastonbury Romance: A Reader’s Companion Updated and Expanded Edition W. J. Keith December 2010 . “Reader’s Companions” by Prof. W.J. Keith to other Powys works are available at: http://www.powys-lannion.net/Powys/Keith/Companions.htm Preface The aim of this list is to provide background information that will enrich a reading of Powys’s novel/ romance. It glosses biblical, literary and other allusions, identifies quotations, explains geographical and historical references, and offers any commentary that may throw light on the more complex aspects of the text. Biblical citations are from the Authorized (King James) Version. (When any quotation is involved, the passage is listed under the first word even if it is “a” or “the”.) References are to the first edition of A Glastonbury Romance, but I follow G. Wilson Knight’s admirable example in including the equivalent page-numbers of the 1955 Macdonald edition (which are also those of the 1975 Picador edition), here in square brackets. Cuts were made in the latter edition, mainly in the “Wookey Hole” chapter as a result of the libel action of 1934. References to JCP’s works published in his lifetime are not listed in “Works Cited” but are also to first editions (see the Powys Society’s Checklist) or to reprints reproducing the original pagination, with the following exceptions: Wolf Solent (London: Macdonald, 1961), Weymouth Sands (London: Macdonald, 1963), Maiden Castle (ed.

    .*>() Fifty-ninth Annual Meeting, Mr. II. St. George Gray gave an account, illustrated by lantern slides, of the excavations conducted at Small Down ('amp, near Evcrcreech, in 1903. Full particulars of this work, with illustrations, are given in the Proceedings, Vol. L, pt. ii, pp. 32-49. The third paper was by Mr. F. Bligh Bond, f.R.I.b.a., on " Screen-work in the Churches of North-East Somerset," which was illustrated by an excellent series of lantern slides. This paper is printed in full in Part II, with several illustra- tions. The evening's programme was concluded with a lantern exhibition of photographic studies of Shepton Mallet Church by Dr. F. J. Allen and the Rev. R. L. Jones. Some of these very fine illustrations are reproduced in Dr. Allen's paper on " Shepton Mallet Church " in Part II. Thanks were returned for these communications, and to the Rector of Shepton Mallet for kindly lending and manipulating the lantern. §>econt> proceeDtngg.

He pointed out that they were now in the Glastonbury country, Doulting Church, with others, having been formerly attached to the Abbey of Glastonbury. Such churches were usually very fine, and there wT as no doubt that prior to its restoration Doulting Church was a magnificent edifice.
