UNDERSTANDING THE SITE 2.1 Site Location The site is located to the north-east of Beeston St Andrew Hall and to the north and west of Park Farm. A residential access road bisects the proposed site and both pieces of land are surrounded by mature trees and hedgerows. The buildings are not within a Conservation Area, nor are they adjacent to one. 2.2 Site Description The proposed site is separated into two sections of land, either side of a residential access road, running north-south. Both sections of land are rectangular in shape with the piece to the east being larger. Contained within the larger section of land exists two sections of historic walls and an enclosed walled garden, which enclose one large space and one smaller space (to the south). These sit to the north- west corner of the site. This site is bounded by mature hedgerows and large sections of mature trees on the south and west boundaries. To the south east, where the existing access is made, sit a range of traditional red brick barns which are currently used commercially however they have permission for conversion into residential units. Slightly to the north of the barns, sits Park Farm House. 1. Estate House—Circa 1920 2. Beeston St Andrew Hall - 1897 3. Pool House – Post 4. Stable Building 5. Bungalow 6. Park Farm House 7. Park Farm Barns 8. Estate Houses—Semi-detached Circa 1920 9. Estate Houses—1893 2.2.1 Beeston St Andrew Hall The Norfolk Heritage Explorer provides the following summary: “A building is marked on Faden’s map of 1797 as New Hall, but the present building is in fact a replacement building of 1897, New Hall having been demolished in 1846. The existing building is of red brick and three storeys high. It is however set between two curving walls that partly date from the 17th century, which were part of a building that predated the demolished New Hall.” A full description can be found under Appendix C. 2.2.2 Beeston St Andrew Hall Walls The walls to the south of the Hall are listed Grade II, under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 as amended for its special architectural or historic interest. The walls are curved 18th century red brick garden walls with stone copings. There are a series of blind semi-circular arches forming an arcade with piers, capped with stone urns at either end. The Listing Description can be found in Appendix B. 2.2.3 Beeston Park The Norfolk Heritage Explorer provides the following summary: “An estate map of 1722 shows Beeston Park as a geometric landscape around an E-plan hall. The main feature was a long, north-northwest to south- southeast, avenue. The geometric landscape survived until the early 19th century but by 1824 had been redesigned in a 'picturesque' manner with winding paths, clumps and irregular tree belts. The long avenue from the geometric landscape was retained to the north and can still be traced in the present day landscape.” A full description can be found under Appendix C. East of the Hall, looking west. Looking north towards Beeston Hall. Beeston Lane 2.2.4 Park Farm Barns The barns represent a good example of a traditional range of brick built agricultural buildings. They should be read in conjunction with Park Farm House, as together these form a typical grouping of farmhouse and ancillary buildings. The barns currently benefit from an approval for their conversation from commercial to residential use. 2.2.5 Park Farm House A traditionally built red brick farm house which runs east-west, with a range of smaller outbuildings to the west. The farmhouse faces due south and overlooks a courtyard style arrangement of gardens and an Looking towards Park Farm House through the farmyard Park Farm House and farmyard existing pond. Approaching Park Farm Park Farm House Park Farm House 2.3 Setting & Context 2.3.1 Setting The development site is situated to the north-east of Norwich (approx. 4 miles from the inner ring road). The sites immediate setting is of enclosed paddock, set within a wider parkland and farm land landscape. There are a number of houses which are dotted around the wider area. The proposals are approx. 40m from an adjacent bungalow (fig.1), 20m from a stable block (fig.2) and Fig 2. Stable block 60m from a pool house (fig.3). These three building are considered to sit within the immediate curtilage of Beeston St Andrew Hall. Beyond this, the site wraps round Park Farm and the associated barns to Fig 1. Bungalow the south (fig.4). The associated plans reference the varying elements which are considered to make up the curtilage and setting of the Hall, along with it association with the site. The wider land which surrounds the Hall, House and Barns, forms the remnants of the Country Park landscape referenced previously, however the majority of this has been converted to agricultural land or has permission for housing development. The parkland has been bisected by the NDR. Fig 4. Barns to the south To the north-west corner of the proposed site, sits a large fully enclosed walled garden with arched pedestrian gate access from the East and West, with a larger gated access to the West. In the south-west corner of the walls there is a small brick built potting shed, raised up with a stepped approach. Internally, some evidence of timber shelving is evident and the original brickwork floor remains in situ. Further to the south, sits an overgrown brickwork structure, which appears to be a lower version of the larger walled garden. Access into the centre of this structure was unfortunately not possible and so it is not possible to report on it further. 2.3.2 Views Views into and out of the proposed site are limited. The associated site plan indicates Looking towards Park Farm from Beeston Road where these exist generally, from a wide context and specifically into and out of the site.

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

  • Consultation on Planning Applications Site Between Wroxham Road
    Planning Committee 1 February 2013 Agenda Item No 9(ii) Consultation on Planning Application: Erection of Up to 3,520 Dwellings, 16,800 m2 Employment Space, 8,800 m2 Shops, Services, Cafes and Restaurants plus Hotel Accommodation, Two Schools, Community Space, Energy Centre, Cycle and Vehicle Parking, Public Open Space and Accesses on Site between Wroxham Road, Sprowston and St Faiths Road, Old Catton Report by Head of Development Management Summary: The Broads Authority has been consulted by Broadland District Council in respect of an application for a mixed use development on land to the north of Norwich. Recommendation: That no objection is raised to the application, but that comments are made regarding landscaping, bio-diversity mitigation and off- setting. 1 Background 1.1 The Joint Core Strategy (JCS) for Norwich City, Broadland District and South Norfolk Councils identifies 37,000 houses and 27,000 jobs to be delivered in the Greater Norwich Area up to 2026. The JCS was adopted in 2011, however, following a partially successful legal challenge in 2012, parts of it have been remitted back to the three authorities for repair. The revised JCS was submitted to the Secretary of State before Christmas. As part of the “repair” process the GNDP have identified that a floating small sites allowance of 2,000 homes is appropriate for the Broadland part of the Norwich Policy Area (NPA) leaving 7,000 new homes to be appropriately located within the NPA. The revised JCS “allocates” 7,000 dwellings north east of Norwich (including 25 hectares of employment land at Rackheath.

  • Sites Proposals
    Broadland District Council Local Development Framework Proposed Site Allocations and Area Action Plan DPDs List of Sites This is a list of potential development sites, accompanying the maps of the sites, on which the Council is consulting for their possible inclusion in the Council’s Local development Framework. Table 1 sets out sites recently put forward to the Council by agents and landowners etc, together with certain “allocations” from the current Local Plan that have not yet happened. Table 2 is a more general list of “other potential sites”, most of which have been included in the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment undertaken as part of the Joint Core Strategy work. Some other sites that were put forward to the Council previously have also been included. Many of the sites in Table 2 will be the same as, similar to, or overlapping the sites contained in Table 1. The lists includes a specific site reference, the proposed use and the name of the relevant parish / settlement. Some sites may overlap parish boundaries, or be adjacent to a settlement but within a different parish. Therefore, if you are interested in a particular parish it is advisable to also consider sites listed under adjoining parishes. In making comments on a site please use the appropriate reference from the site maps, having regard to Table 1, or Table 2 if necessary.
