  • Rural Settlement List 2014
    National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

  • RATLINGHOPE Saint Margaret Diocese of Hereford SO4026096885
    RATLINGHOPE Saint Margaret Diocese of Hereford SO4026096885 Yews are seen here in Revd Williams 1789 watercolour and a Victorian postcard. The watercolour is reproduced with the permission of the Shropshire Archives Service. The 1994 church guide describes ‘3 fine yews of great age near the porch, and more in the field near the path from the road, suggesting that at one time the churchyard was larger than at present’. Photographs are from 2015. c1789 2 3 c1868 2 3 2 1 3 The site was visited on 9th June 1999 and 24th April 2015. The largest of the trio (1) grows due west of the church. It is of solid appearance with a fluted bole. At about 10' it divides into many upright and lateral branches. A girth of 17' 3'' was recorded just above the ground in 1999. In 2015 a girth of exactly 18' was recorded at the same height, and low bushy growth was noted just above the measuring point. 1 1 Tree 2 grows SW of the church. At a height of about 4' a section of the bole bulges outwards. The seat around the tree rests on a concrete platform right up against the tree. This is inevitably breaking up as the tree expands. Girth in 2015 was 9' 2'' at the height of the top of the seat. 2 Tree 3 is as bushy as in 1868, though its height has been reduced by a half. Although girthing only 8' 7'' at about 1', the tree is likely to 3 have an age of 200/250 years - assuming it was between 50 and 100 years at the time of the 1868 photograph.
