APPLICANT West Lancashire Borough Council WARD Aughton And Downholland PARISH Aughton TARGET DATE 30th July 2014 1.0 PREVIOUS RELEVANT DECISIONS 1.1 None 2.0 OBSERVATIONS OF CONSULTEES 2.1 AUGHTON PARISH COUNCIL (14/07/14) - No comments. 2.2 ESTATES DEPARTMENT, HOUSING AND REGENERATION, WEST LANCASHIRE BOROUGH COUNCIL (27/06/14) - No objections. 3.0 OTHER REPRESENTATIONS 3.1 None 4.0 SUPPORTING INFORMATION 4.1 None 5.0 RELEVANT PLANNING POLICIES 5.1 The application site is located within the settlement area of Aughton as designated in the West Lancashire Local Plan Proposal Map. 5.2 Relevant planning policies include: West Lancashire Local Plan 2012-2027 DPD GN1 – Settlement Boundaries GN3 – Criteria for Sustainable Development Supplementary Planning Document – Design Guide (January 2008) National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) Requiring Good Design 6.0 OBSERVATIONS OF ASSISTANT DIRECTOR PLANNING Site 6.1 The application site relates to a two storey semi-detached property located on the western side of Whalley Drive in Aughton. Proposal 6.2 This application seeks planning permission for a single storey side extension to accommodate a ground floor bedroom and bathroom. A flat roofed extension already exists on the same site and the proposal would replace this with a larger extension. Assessment 6.3 The main considerations for this application are i) Visual appearance/design ii) Impact on neighbouring properties iii) Impact on highways/parking Visual appearance/design 6.4 Policy GN3 of the West Lancashire Local Plan DPD 2012-2027 states that in the case of extensions, conversions or alterations to existing buildings, the proposal should relate to the existing building, in terms of design and materials and should not detract from the character of the street scene, and Policy EN4 expects development to be high quality and in keeping with the West Lancashire Design Guide SPD. 6.5 The side extension will project 4.5m from the side wall of the existing property at its widest point, but this would be set in towards the front to 3.5m, allowing access to the rear of the property. It will be set back from the front elevation of the host property and would project beyond the rear by approx. 2m. A pitched and part-hipped roof would cover the extension. The materials from which the extension will be constructed will match those of the host property. 6.6 I am satisfied that the external design and appearance of the proposed extension reflects the character of the existing house and will not form an incongruous feature within the streetscene. In my view the proposal would improve the appearance of the existing extension which is currently flat-roofed in design and therefore does not relate well to the host property in terms of design or materials. Impact on neighbouring properties 6.7 Policy GN3 of the West Lancashire Local Plan DPD (2012-2027) states that new development should retain reasonable levels of amenity for occupiers of neighbouring properties. 6.8 The nearest neighbour to the development is no.131 Whalley Drive, located to the north of the application site. This dwelling has two windows at ground floor level, facing the application site. Due to the scale, position of the property and inclusion of a part-hipped roof design, I am of the opinion that the development will not have an overbearing impact upon the occupants of this property, nor cause a detrimental impact in terms of poor outlook or loss of light. 6.9 The side elevation of the extension adjacent to this property will display a window to the bathroom which will be obscure glazed. This will serve to maintain the privacy of no.131. Impact on Highways/parking 6.10 The proposal would not increase the number of bedrooms within the dwelling and therefore would not change the parking requirements beyond the existing. It is felt that sufficient parking can be provided within the existing curtilage. Summary 6.7 Overall I consider that the proposed side extension is acceptable in terms of its design and would not have a significant detrimental impact upon neighbouring properties in terms of privacy, poor outlook or loss of light. Given the above I consider that the proposal satisfactorily meets the requirements of Policies GN1 and GN3 of the West Lancashire Local Plan 2012-2027 Development Plan Document and should be recommended for approval. 7.0 RECOMMENDATION 7.1 That planning permission be GRANTED subject to the following conditions: Conditions 1. The development must be begun not later than the expiration of three years beginning with the date of this permission. 2. The development hereby approved shall be carried out in accordance with details shown on the following plans:- Plan reference DG- 10, DG-11 and DG-13 received by the Local Planning Authority on 14 May 2014.

    A guide and list to a collection of Historic Railway Documents www.railarchive.org.uk to e mail click here December 2017 1 Since July 1971, this private collection of printed railway documents from pre grouping and pre nationalisation railway companies based in the UK; has sought to expand it‟s collection with the aim of obtaining a printed sample from each independent railway company which operated (or obtained it‟s act of parliament and started construction). There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

  • A Walk Around St. Leonard's Parish Boundary, Penwortham
    A Walk around St. Leonard’s Parish Boundary, Penwortham. Background. Penwortham is one of the ancient parishes of Lancashire. Until the 17th century it comprised of the townships of Longton, Howick, Penwortham, Farington and Hutton. In the early medieval period it also comprised of Brindle. The earliest written record of a church at Penwortham dates from the 1140’s. Map courtesy of Alan Crosby from his book “Penwortham in the past” Middleforth the township (which acquired it’s name from the middle ford on the River Ribble) was gradually growing in the early first part of the 19th century and the Vicar of St. Mary’s Rev. W.E. Rawstorne decided that the time was right to build a chapel school. Middleforth Chapel School opened in 1861 in the village, situated on the corner of Leyland Road and Marshall’s Brow. In 1901 a prefabricated iron church was built next to the school. This was in use until the present church was opened in 1970. As St. Leonard’s Church in Middleforth grew further, it was soon able to manage its own affairs and in 1959 became a conventional district but still in the Parish of St. Mary, Penwortham. Further growth took place with Penwortham becoming part of the Central Lancashire New Town. It was therefore decided that St. Leonard’s could stand alone from St. Mary’s and a new benefice of the Parish of St. Leonard, Penwortham was established on 1 April 1972 by an Order in Council dated 1 March 1972. The area concerned was taken out of the ancient parish of St.

  • The West Lancashire Light Railway
    THE WEST LANCASHIRE LIGHT RAILWAY A Short Note on the Preserved Narrow Gauge Railway at Station Road, Hesketh Bank Narrow gauge railways (that is railways with a distance between the rails of less than the standard gauge of 4’ 8½’’ (1435mm)) have been used since the earliest phase of the industrial revolution in the 18th century in conjunction with mining and quarrying. Even though most countries built their main railway networks to standard gauge, narrow gauge railways continued to find a role in a wide range of applications through the 19th and 20th centuries and throughout the world. Narrow gauge railways were used extensively for the carriage of passengers and goods on secondary lines in a number of overseas countries and to a more limited extent in the British Isles. Some of the applications that narrow gauge railways were employed in are listed below: • Manufacturing industry (such as brickworks, chemicals, tanning, electric cables, engineering workshops). • Mining (coal and other minerals). • Quarrying (stone, clay, sand and gravel). • Construction (tunnels, dams, roads). • Municipal (such as waterworks, sewage works, land reclamation). • Agriculture (such as potato growing, sugar beet, sugar cane, sisal). • Military (in depots and in supplying battlefields). • Estates (for transporting coal and other supplies and for general maintenance work) • Public passenger and goods (lines such as the Ffestiniog Railway, Ashover Railway and Lynton & Barnstaple Railway). • Leisure (either private, ‘garden’ lines or public passenger carrying lines such as seaside miniature railways and pier tramways). The use of narrow gauge railways in Britain declined with the introduction of more motorised road vehicles after World War 1and then significantly after World War 2 with the increasing costs of labour and with the modernisation of industries.

  • Chronological List of the Railways of Lancashire, 1828-1939
    CHRONOLOGICAL LIST OF THE RAILWAYS OF LANCASHIRE, 1828-1939 BY M. D. GREVILLE In addition to previously published data, I have consulted official and Rail­ way Clearing House records, local and railway press, and Bradshaw's Manual. There is often a bewildering discrepancy in dates in railway records, especially the older ones. Every effort has been made to establish the correct dates, and when this has not been possible from contemporary references, I have shown the ones which, taking all circumstances into consideration, seem the most likely to be accurate. Closing of lines and withdrawal of passenger services are noted only up to the outbreak of war in September 1939. The closing dates given are those for the last days on which trains ran. The railways have been grouped under the following headings and subheadings: 1 LONDON, MIDLAND & SCOTTISH RAILWAY A London & North Western Railway and Components B Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway and Components C Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway and London & North Western Railway Joint Lines D Midland Railway and Components E Furness Railway and Components F Furness and Midland Joint Line G Knott End Railway 2 LONDON & NORTH EASTERN RAILWAY GREAT CENTRAL RAILWAY AND COMPONENTS 3 VARIOUS AND INTER-GROUP JOINT LINES A London & North Western Railway and Manchester, Sheffield & Lincolnshire Railway Joint Lines B Cheshire Lines Committee C Sheffield & Midland Joint Lines D Mersey Railway E Liverpool Overhead Railway 1.

  • Professional and Academic Journal Articles About the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway
    Professional and Academic Journal articles about the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway In 2013 a small team of LYRS members started to read through all the editions of The Engineer held electronically by ‘Grace’s Guide’. When we started we had access to issues of The Engineer from 1856 to 1930 – that’s nearly 4000 issues. We noted the main points of each reference to the LYR, its predecessor, the companies it took over, and its people. This is the result of our work: nearly 2,500 references from The Engineer and The Electrical Review (there are fewer editions of The Electrical Review on line, and they are not all in the same place).
