Report Conclusions – Bringing the Evidence Together 88 - 91 Bibliography 91 Appendices 92 - 132 Acknowledgements Paula Kennerley, Cumbria County Council Stuart Frank, Cumbria Vision Note to the Strategic Housing Market Assessment The SHMA documents have been prepared jointly by each Cumbria district in consultation with local and county stakeholders and have been compiled using the Governments’ Strategic Housing Market Assessments Practice Guidance Version 2, August 2007. The documents are not intended to provide definitive estimates of housing need, demand and market conditions. However they aim to provide insights into how housing markets operate both now and in the future. They are intended to allow an evidence base upon which to develop planning and housing policies by considering the characteristics of the housing market, how key factors work together and the probable scale of change in future housing needs and demand (SHMA Guidance, 2007, pp7-9). To allow ease of reference each stage of the assessment follows the same order as the Guidance. Data sources occasionally differ from those recommended in the Guidance where they have been unavailable or where more robust up to date information has been accessed. The following analysis looks at the housing market area and provides information on the wider District and Cumbrian level where this adds contextual information.

Current Market Profile Current Market Profile Carlisle Rural West encompasses the wards of Burgh and Dalston. The village of Dalston is the largest local service centre. Rural West has the highest lower quartile house prices of all Carlisle’s Housing Market Areas. Unfortunately, 2009 has seen job losses at the Stead McAlpin textile plant at Cummersdale, which is a major blow to the local economy. The Nestle factory at Dalston remains the largest employer in the area, and there is also an industrial estate at Barras Lane, Dalston. Much of the rest of the employment in the housing market area is based on agriculture or small cottage industries. The City Council is keen to place a stronger focus on the Roman theme and Hadrian’s Wall brand, in respect of Carlisle’s tourism offer. This provides opportunities and sustainability to small-scale businesses in Burgh ward, such as B & B’s and pubs. Cumbria Tourism has estimated Hadrian’s Wall product investment could lead to in the region of 100 new jobs. The North West Development Route will hopefully help to advance employment and transport links, including linking Carlisle West with Kingmoor Park. Headline Findings • 43 households per year in need of affordable housing over the next five years (District Housing Survey 2006). • Need identified is predominantly for general need rather older households – particularly for larger 3+ bedroom properties, with the need for social rented accommodation outweighing the need for intermediate housing almost 2:1. • Earnings to property price ratio – 7.4 x (CACI Paycheck & Streetvalue). • The threat to jobs posed by the current economic recession poses a parallel threat to the housing market. Nationally – Government initiatives include the Mortgage Rescue Scheme, launched in early 2009, but there is only enough funding available to assist around 6000 households nationally – compared to 13,161 repossessions in the third quarter of 2008 – representing a 92% increase on the same quarter the previous year (source: CLG & Financial Services Authority). Targets The following targets have been devised for this market area. In order to achieve these appropriate actions from the Cumbria Housing Strategy Action Plan will be applied.

Field north of 'Laithholme', Park Broom, Carlisle, CA6 4QH _____________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION 1.1 That planning permission is granted for the reasons stated in Appendix 1 and subject to the conditions in Appendix 2. 2.0 THE PROPOSAL 2.1 The application site is a field located adjacent to an unclassified road leading south from the A689 to the hamlet of Park Broom, which is situated to the east of Carlisle. This section of the field is currently being used as the contractors compound for the new sewer works. A 3m wide section of hedgerow has been removed to give access for the contractor's compound. This would leave space for provision of the access gates for entry into the pumping station. 2.2 The proposal is for construction of an underground pumping station to serve a new sewer being built as part of a first time sewerage scheme for the village of Park Broom. Currently properties are served by septic tanks, which discharge via ditches, some of which are heavily polluted, to the River Eden. The above ground development would consist of a concrete slab over the pumping station and a control kiosk. In addition there would be a grass seeded compacted stone access track and turning space created to enable servicing of the development.

However; no reference is made to Parish Plans and Design Statements. These documents commonly result from widespread and effective community involvement undertaken by Parish Councils, often with assistance from the LPA, and are capable of being used to inform Local Plans and planning applications. These should be noted along whenever reference is made to Neighbourhood Planning or Neighbourhood Planning Areas. With regard to paragraph 1.40 - Settlement Boundaries the Parish Council maintains the view expressed in its first response to consultation, when it urged retention of settlement boundaries as ‘indicative boundaries’ only. Not being definitive these would not in any way inhibit the responsiveness or flexibility of the LPA, but would greatly serve the interests of community engagement through illustrating the parameters of community identity – a significant factor when considering proposals that may significantly re-shape or re-define such a community.

  • Stag Inn Crosby-On-Eden, Carlisle, Cumbria, CA6 4QN
    Stag Inn Crosby-on-Eden, Carlisle, Cumbria, CA6 4QN • Incredible Affluent Location • Potential For Letting Rooms • Car Park For Over 20 Cars • Completely Renovated • On The Hadrian’s Walk Route Freehold £260,000 Reference: 2830/42711 01434 607 841 LOCATION The Stag Inn is the focal point of the village of Crosby-on-Eden which is the combined name for two small villages, High Crosby and Low Crosby, within the civil parish of Stanwix Rural near Carlisle, Cumbria. The villages are by the River Eden north-east of Carlisle, joined by a road that used to be the Stanegate Roman Road. It has been thought on spacing grounds that there might have been a small Roman fort in Crosby-on-Eden, as part of the so-called Stanegate frontier which preceded Hadrian's Wall, but if such a fort exists it has not yet been found. The Stanegate ran in a deep cutting still visible next to the road running west from High Crosby, and it has been suggested that part of the reason for the cutting was to produce stone for building work. The line of Hadrian's Wall passes a mile or so to the north, and the Hadrian's Wall Path follows the Stanegate through the villages. PROPERTY The main entrance is at the front of the building. The whole of the ground floor is open plan with lots of little areas of character and charm with split levels. There is seating/benches for (44) with the ladies and gents at the rear of the room. There is a stunning log burner fire place which makes for a very cosy feel and adds to the ambience.
