The proposed restoration scheme will be to a wildlife enhanced agriculturally managed landscape. The restored landform will include heathland slopes, relatively flat agricultural land and a water body adjacent to the Wyrley and Essington Canal (currently dry). This water body will be designed to allow its use in the future (subject to a separate planning application and additional restoration works of the canal system as a marina basin). As such this application addresses the mineral, recycling and inert placement of restoration materials only. The proposed restoration scheme for the site is illustrated on Drawing No M13.135.D.031. As part of the proposed development it is anticipated that a simple consolidated planning consent and associated conditions would be achieved. This report describes existing baseline characteristics in respect of Landscape Designation, Landscape Character and Visual Matters associates within the Site and its local context and assesses the impact of the proposed development scheme on these aspects. This assessment makes use of the methodology as set out within the Guidelines for Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment, 3rd Edition published jointly by the Landscape Institute and Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment, 2013. We have also made use of Staffordshire County Council’s Supplementary Landscape Policy Guidance and Landscape Character Assessment together with Guidance for England and Scotland published jointly by the Countryside Agency and Scottish Natural Heritage, 2002. See Appendix B Methodology. This report has been prepared by Pleydell Smithyman Limited, Landscape Architectural and Environmental Designers of Ironbridge, Telford, Shropshire. The works being commissioned by WCL. 1.2 Site Location and Context The Site known as Cranebrook Quarry is located in open countryside ~1km south of Hammerwich and ~1km east of the town of Brownhills. See Drawing No M13.135.D.008. It is located within a triangle of land between three main roads. The A5 is adjacent to the northern boundary of the site; the A461 is approximately 1 km to the east running in a north east, south west direction, and the new M6Toll road which runs just to the south and is approximately 150 metres at its closest point to the south east of the site. The line of the currently disused Wyrley Essington Canal runs along the southern boundary of the site and in-between the S:\M13.135 Cranebrook Quarry\Reports\M13.135.R.008 LVIA\LVIA 22.09.15.Docx September 2015 4 LANDSCAPE & VISUAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT CRANEBROOK QUARRY WCL CRANEBROOK QUARRY LIMITED site and the M6Toll. Other than the highways and canals in the vicinity the land use in the area is mainly agricultural, mixed arable and pastoral land. There are no public rights of way within or adjacent to the Site. The whole site application area being ~9Ha. The nearest footpaths run off to the north of the A5. The nearest residential properties are located ~80-200m to the north east of the eastern limit of the Site and adjacent to the A5 roadway at Muckley Corner. 1.3 Development Proposals The proposed development involves a minor eastern extension for sand extraction and the continuation of imported inert materials for restoration purposes, together with the continuation of sustainable on site recycling. The existing quarry has approximately two years of remaining mineral reserve. The proposed mineral extension area is approximately 4ha and contains an estimated 750,000 tonnes of rock sand reserves. This would extend the current life of quarry extraction by an estimated 10 years at an average annual extraction rate of 75,000 tonnes per annum. The establishment of the restored landform will require ~640,000 m3 of imported inert material. This will be progressively placed during the development period. During the extraction and progressive restoration period, recycling of imported construction and demolition waste will continue. The site would be worked as an extension of the existing quarry, utilising the existing access, plant site and related infrastructure. No new plant or machinery is proposed. The deposit has a depth of approximately 25m and would be worked in two benches as indicated on the Site Development Plan. The present eastern working face would be continued towards the east through the proposed extension. Appropriate standoffs to site boundaries are provided to safeguard the stability of adjoining land. The quarry would be worked ‘dry’ with no requirement for dewatering. Soils would be removed in accordance with best practice and reserved for use in the subsequent restoration of the site. The restoration scheme has been designed as a long term sustainable agriculturally managed landscape. It also draws on the potential offered by the restoration of the adjacent Wyrley and Essington Canal. There is an active canal restoration society promoting the reopening of the canal for navigation and recreational use. The route of the canal has been protected by the provision of an aqueduct over the M6 Toll when this was constructed. All works associated with this application have been geared to both protect and enhance the canal. S:\M13.135 Cranebrook Quarry\Reports\M13.135.R.008 LVIA\LVIA 22.09.15.Docx September 2015 5 LANDSCAPE & VISUAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT CRANEBROOK QUARRY WCL CRANEBROOK QUARRY LIMITED 2.0 LANDSCAPE DESIGNATIONS AND LANDSCAPE ORIENTATED PLANNING POLICIES 2.1 Environmental Designations The site is NOT located within any nationally designated landscape (ie a national park or an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). The site is, however, within the West Midlands Green Belt. The extent of the area of the Green Belt is shown in Drawing No M13.135.D.009 along with other local designations. The site is located within a non statutory designated community forest – Forest of Mercia. There are a number of such community forests across England which is a local community initiative to promote planting and understanding of woodlands and trees. The site is also located in the outer Impact Risk Zone for a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) at Chasewater, which is located over 2km to the west of the site. The site known as Chasewater and the Southern Staffordshire Coalfield Heaths is a wet and dry lowland heath. There are a number of listed buildings scattered through the landscape, however, none immediately adjacent to the site. The nearest is Hammerwich Place Farmhouse approximately 0.6km to the north of the site and Church of St John the Baptist in Hammerwich again to the north approximately 0.9km . Both are listed as Grade II. The Wyrley and Essington Canal Footbridge at Ogley Junction is a Grade II listed building and is located approximately 1.5 km to the East. 2.2 Landscape orientated Planning Policies The site is within the administrative area of Staffordshire County Council and Lichfield District Council. The Local Planning Framework comprises the Lichfield District Local Plan Strategy 2008-2029, the Staffordshire and Stoke –on-Trent Minerals Local (Saved Policies) 1994-2006, and the new Minerals Local Plan for Staffordshire (2015 to 2030) Final Draft- June 2015 2.3 National Planning Policy Framework At a national level the National Planning Policy Framework is a material consideration. The purpose of the framework is essentially to set out Core Planning Principles including “recognising the intrinsic character and beauty of the countryside and supporting thriving rural communities within it”, and to guide the development of policies in local plans. Specific reference is made at chapter 11 – Conserving and enhancing the natural environment, to “Protecting and enhancing valued landscapes, geological conservation interests and soils”.

    A5 Strategy 2018-2031

    A5 Strategy Supporting Growth and Movement in the Midlands 2018-2031 Foreword In response to the pressures and opportunities faced along the A5 corridor, the A5 Transport Partnership was formed in 2009/10. It includes representation from 17 local authorities, including local highway authorities, local planning authorities, as well as Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs). The A5 Partnership produced its first strategy for the corridor in 2011, providing an evidence base to inform the development of Local Plans, Local Transport Plans and policy, negotiations with developers and to support bids for infrastructure funding. Despite much progress being made, the increasing importance of the A5 as a strategic route, combined with the unprecedented level of housing and employment growth that will come forward along the corridor between now and 2031, means there is still much more to be delivered. Investment is required to ensure the A5 continues to fulfil its role as a key artery of movement that facilitates economic growth and provides network resilience for the wider Strategic Road Network. As a result the A5 Partnership felt that now was the right time to review the strategy, with a focus on the following key themes: Delivering Growth Supporting Network Resilience Delivering a safe and secure A5 Managing the impact of freight Delivering a sustainable A5 The Strategy covers the 77 mile section of the A5 from Gailey in Staffordshire to Stoney Stratford near Milton Keynes, and sets out the vision for the A5 by providing a framework for maintaining and improving the corridor for the next 13 years. There is significant support for the work of the A5 Partnership.

Projects Identified as Important to the Parish, to be Pursued by the Parish Council, Through Various Funding Sources Including Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) 53 2 1 Background to the Plan 1.1 The Localism Act 2011 promoted neighbourhood engagement in the planning process. It introduced a new kind of Plan, called a Neighbourhood Development Plan (or Neighbourhood Plan, for short), that could be prepared by Parish Councils. One of the key aims of the legislation is to enable people to contribute to the long term development of their own community. A Neighbourhood Plan can make a real difference to how development is carried out in the Parish, because once it has been through all the stages of preparation and been “made” (adopted) by Lichfield District Council (LDC), it becomes part of the District’s Development Plan, alongside the LDC Local Plan. Its planning policies will therefore be used in the decision-making process when planning applications within the Parish are considered by the Local Planning Authority. This Neighbourhood Plan supports the delivery of strategic policies contained in the Lichfield District Local Plan in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework 2019 para 13.

    Walsall Walkabout #2 (North East) Daw End Branch & Rushall Canals and Ryecroft Railway Junction An RCHS West Midlands Group Walk Saturday 9th September 2017 Overview Walsall Walkabout #2, - a (perhaps surprisingly) mostly rural walk - starts at Bell Bridge (Walstead Road) on the Rushall Canal: Bus #51 or X51 from Walsall Bus Station stand A/B to Walstead Road Bell Inn. The Wyrley & Essington Canal was incorporated in 1792 to connect Wolverhampton with Wyrley Bank and adjacent collieries. In fact, before the canal was completed the line up to Wyrley became a branch with the main line continuing to Birchills (north Walsall). Subsequently, the main line was extended from a junction less than half a mile north of Birchills basin to join the Coventry Canal at Huddlesford Junction which is to the east of Lichfield. There were a number of branches notably in the area around Wyrley and to the south of Cannock. The main line of the canal was opened in stages (from west to east) between 1794 and 1797. Despite the proximity of the Wyrley & Essington Canal and the BCN, and pressure from local businessmen, the two canals had no connections (apart from Horseleyfields Junction at the Wolverhampton end) until the two canal companies merged in 1840. Three such canals were completed between 1841 and 1847. The first (the Walsall Locks Branch) made the half-mile connection between the W&E at Birchills Wharf and the Walsall Canal close to its terminus at Walsall Wharf - this canal was included in our Walsall Walkabout #1 in 2016. The Rushall Canal, completed in 1847, was #3 in the sequence.

Within the Neighbourhood Plan there are numerous references to evidence-base documents that have been used to underpin and justify its Policies. In some cases, only short quotations from these sources are required, and these have been integrated into the text accompanying the Policy. However, in other cases, longer extracts from the evidence-base source are required to support the Policies, but clearly incorporating these into the main Plan document would make the latter unwieldy and difficult to navigate. These extracts are therefore reproduced in this document, with a cross-reference to the relevant place(s) in the Plan.

Introduction This report has been prepared by the Conservation and Urban Design Team at Lichfield District Council to gain approval for the addition of buildings and structures onto Lichfield’s register of buildings of special local interest. It is intended that this will be the first report of a rolling programme of reports to be presented to the Council until all areas of the district have been reviewed. 1.1 Background to the Lichfield District Council Local List Currently Lichfield District Councils Local List only covers buildings within some of the 22 designated Conservation Areas. These buildings were assessed at the time that the conservation area appraisals were carried out. However, there are numerous buildings and structures across the district which are locally important, and are currently not identified. Whilst the local listing does not offer the same level of protection as statutorily listed buildings, they do become a material consideration within planning decisions, allowing the opportunity for their local distinctiveness to be taken into consideration through the planning process.
