This is a Level 1 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) and it will be used to inform decisions on the location of future development and the preparation of sustainable policies for the long-term management of flood risk. Introduction This Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) document provides an update to the Joint 2014 SFRA for Hinckley and Bosworth, Blaby and Oadby and Wigston Borough Councils, as well as an update to the Leicestershire and Leicester City 2017 SFRA. Both of these existing SFRAs contained relevant data to Hinckley and Bosworth but included a much larger area and additional Local Authorities. This study provides a comprehensive and robust evidence base to support the new Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council Local Plan. The key objectives are: • To update the Council's Joint 2014 SFRA and the 2017 SFRA, taking into account the most recent policy and legislation in the National Planning Policy Framework (2019). • To collate and analyse the latest available information and data for current and future (i.e. climate change) flood risk from all sources, and how these may be mitigated. • To inform decisions in the emerging Local Plan, including the selection of development sites and planning policies. • To provide evidence to support the application of the Sequential Test for the allocation of new development sites, to support the Council’s preparation of the Local Plan. • To provide a comprehensive set of maps presenting flood risk from all sources that can be used as evidence base for use in the emerging Local Plan. • To provide advice for applicants carrying out site-specific flood risk assessments and outline specific measures or objectives that are required to manage flood risk. Summary of flood risk in Hinckley and Bosworth Borough • Past flooding information available for this study is limited. The data that does exist shows that the main risk is from surface water and culverted watercourses. The most affected areas for historic flooding correspond with the main urban areas in the borough, including Hinckley, Barwell, Earl Shilton, Desford, Ratby and Groby, although there are some records of historical flooding in rural areas. • The main rivers associated with fluvial flooding are the River Anker and River Sence, which pose a flood risk to settlements including Sheepy Magna, Shackerstone, Witherley and the outskirts of Atherstone. Additionally, there is fluvial flood risk posed to the borough by a number of smaller watercourses. Within Hinckley and Burbage, the Battle Brook, Harrow Brook and Sketchley brook pose a fluvial flooding risk. In the east of the borough, the Rothley Brook poses a fluvial flood risk to the urban areas of Groby and Ratby. iv | P a g e 2019s0332 - Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council - L1 SFRA Update Final v1.0.docx • The Areas Susceptible to Groundwater Flooding map shows that, in general, the majority of Hinckley and Bosworth borough is within the <25% susceptible classification, therefore it is at lower risk of groundwater flooding. Parts of the borough around Stoke Golding, Newbold Verdon and Desford, and the west of the borough along the River Sence channel fall within higher susceptibility classifications and are therefore at higher risk from groundwater flooding. • There is one canal located within Hinckley and Bosworth borough, the Ashby Canal. These have the potential to interact with other watercourses and become flow paths during flood events or in a breach scenario. There have been five recorded incidents of canal breach from 1981 to 1990, and three recorded incidents of canal overtopping from 2012 to 2016. The canal breach incidents occurred in primarily rural locations on the stretch of the canal between Congerstone and Shenton. The canal overtopping incidents occurred in Stoke Golding and Hinckley. • There is a potential risk of flooding from reservoirs both within the borough and those outside. There are four reservoirs within Hinckley and Bosworth borough. There are no records of flooding from reservoirs in the study area. The level and standard of inspection and maintenance required under the Reservoirs Act means that the risk of flooding from reservoirs is relatively low. However, there is a residual risk of a reservoir breach and this risk should be considered in any site-specific Flood Risk Assessments (where relevant). How to use this report Planners The SFRA provides recommendations regarding all sources of flood risk in Hinckley and Bosworth borough, which can be used to inform policy on flood risk within the Local Plan. This includes how the cumulative impact of development should be considered. It provides the latest flood risk data and guidance to inform the Sequential Test and provides guidance on how to apply the Exception Test. The Borough Council will use this information to apply the Sequential Test to strategic allocations and identify where the Exception Test will also be needed. The SFRA provides guidance for developers, which can be used by Development Management staff to assess whether site specific Flood Risk Assessments meet the required quality standard. Developers For sites that are not strategic allocations, developers will need to use this SFRA to help apply the Sequential Test. For all sites, whether strategic allocations or windfall sites, developers will need to apply the Exception Test and use information in a site-specific Flood Risk Assessment to inform this test at planning application stage. When assessing sites not identified in the Local Plan (windfall sites), developers should use evidence provided in this SFRA to apply the Sequential Test as well as providing evidence to show that they have adequately considered other reasonably available sites. v | P a g e 2019s0332 - Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council - L1 SFRA Update Final v1.0.docx This SFRA provides guidance for the application of the Sequential and Exception Tests at a site level and for detailed site-specific Flood Risk Assessments. This is a strategic assessment and does not replace the need for site-specific Flood Risk Assessments where a development is either within Flood Zones 2 or 3 or greater than a hectare in Flood Zone 1. In addition, a surface water drainage strategy will be needed for all major developments in any Flood Zone to satisfy Leicestershire County Council (the Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) for the area). Developers can use the information in this SFRA, alongside site specific research to help to scope out what additional work will be needed in a detailed Flood Risk Assessment. To do this they should refer to the Chapter 5 Sources of flooding in Hinckley and Bosworth and the flood maps in the appendices. At the planning application stage, developers may need to undertake more detailed hydrological and hydraulic assessments of the watercourses to verify flood extent (including latest climate change allowances, due to be updated by the Environment Agency in 2019), inform master planning and prove, if required, whether the Exception Test can be passed. As part of the Environment Agency’s updated guidance on climate change, which must be considered for all new developments

    Bosworth at Redemore: Focus and Context

    Bosworth at Redemore: Focus and Context PETER J. FOSS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT local document to come to light in recent years (that is, since my work of the 1980s) relevant to the location of the battle of Bosworth is a demesne terrier belonging to the Abbey of St Mary de Pratis (Leicester Abbey) identified by Professor Barrie Cox in his contribution to the archaeological survey undertaken by the Battlefields Trust in 2005–09. The document1 is dated to between 1467 and 1484 and itemises fields, furlongs and meadows in the township of Stoke Golding (‘Stoke’) at the end of the fifteenth century, on the cusp of the battle of Bosworth. I would like here to offer a brief examination of this document and, together with other local records, show how it helps to focus on the place where the battle of Bosworth was fought, and how this reflects on the context of the archaeological discoveries made in 2009. I would also like to correct and rebal- ance a number of recent misconceptions. A Leicester Abbey Demesne Terrier The document identifies three open fields – Halmorefelde, Garbrodfelde and Whytmorefelde – which can be equated roughly with later named areas (from the early seventeenth century at least) in the same parish; that is, the later-named ‘Crownehillfielde’ with Garbrodfelde, ‘Milnehillfield’ with Whytmorefelde, and Halmorefelde with the area that lay south of the manor-house and its park (the ‘Park’ and ‘Great Pasture’ marked on Trimnell’s map of 1637).2 The inference has been made, reasonably, that the change of name from Garbrodfelde to Crownehillfelde
  • River Mease SAC Developer Contribution Scheme 2 Appendix

    River Mease SAC Developer Contribution Scheme 2 Appendix

    Appendix 1: Measures to be funded through the Developer Contributions Scheme 2 (DCS2) FINAL VERSION (June 2016) The need for DCS2 has been identified in response to the development allocations within the North West Leicestershire District Council Local Plan, which is currently being finalised. The Local Plan was subject to assessment under the Habitats Regulations1 and the Developer Contribution Scheme was identified as a key mechanism to provide NWLDC with the necessary confidence that development allocated within the catchment of the river will not be likely to have a significant effect on the River Mease SAC. The HRA of the Local Plan identified the need for DCS2 to deliver mitigation to facilitate the delivery of 1826 dwellings. On the basis of the estimated P loadings to the river from receiving works provided in E&F of DCS2, an estimate of phosphate contributions from these dwellings represents an increased loading of 329g P/day. Of critical importance to the development of DCS2, is an agreement which has been reached since the development and implementation of DCS1. Following recent discussions between Natural England, the Environment Agency and Severn Trent Water, the following statement has been issued. Severn Trent, Environment Agency and Natural England have assessed the options to meet the SAC conservation objectives in relation to flow and phosphate, and agree that pumping sewage effluent from Packington and Measham sewage works out of the Mease catchment is the most effective long term solution. The primary reason to move flow out of the River Mease catchment would be to ensure the SAC flow targets are met.

    Coalville Fringe Assessment

    Urban Fringe 1: Western edge of Thringstone and New Swannington 1: View from School Lane 2: View from Red Hill Lane Element Assessment Score The Coalfield: Gently undulating landscape with effects of past and present coal and clay working. It displays a relatively dense pattern of former mining towns and villages characterised by 19th century mining terraces which follow the roads. The landscape is characterised by mixed farmland although away from settlements the land is mostly arable. There is generally low woodland cover. The land contains areas of restored land, some including establishing heathland, once far more extensive. Around Coalville the landscape is influenced by Bardon 21 warehousing, Bardon quarry and other light industrial development. Bardon Hill and quarry are features within views. The assessment notes that the land is part of the National Forest. Northern tip is part of Charnwood Forest: The underlying pre-Cambrian rocks result in a varied, hilly landform with exposed crags and rocky knolls and fast-flowing streams, resulting in a distinctive County Landscape character. The area has a high concentration of mixed deciduous and coniferous woodland, including many ancient woodland sites, hedges and hedgerow trees, some of which is unmanaged. The character area area is characterised by an intimate mixture of woodland and farmland in mixed arable and pasture uses. The area’s acidic soils support pockets of heathland vegetation, particularly around rocky outcrops, where the land has never been taken into cultivation. There is variable field patterns, with irregular fields often bounded by mixed hedges contrasted with long narrow rectilinear fields with stone walls.
