INTRODUCTION 1.1 The North West Regional Aggregates Working Party (NWRAWP) is one of a number of similar working parties throughout England and Wales established in the 1970s in order to collect data on the production of aggregates. The NWRAWP is comprised of the counties of Lancashire, Cumbria (including the Lake District National Park) and Cheshire; the Metropolitan Boroughs of Greater Manchester and Merseyside along with the newly created Unitary Authorities of Blackburn with Darwin, Blackpool, Halton and Warrington. Those parts of the Peak District National Park which fall within Cheshire and Greater Manchester are represented by the East Midlands Regional Aggregates Working Party and those parts of the Yorkshire Dales National Park which fall within Cumbria are represented by the Yorkshire and Humberside Regional Aggregates Working Party. 1.2 Membership is drawn from the constituent mineral planning authorities (MPAs), central government departments and representatives from the extractive industry. The metropolitan districts in Greater Manchester are represented by the Greater Manchester Geological Unit, which provides mineral planning services to the ten Metropolitan Borough Councils (MBC). The five Merseyside authorities are represented on mineral planning issues by the Environmental Advisory Service which regularly provides professional planning advice for Sefton, St Helens and Knowsley MBCs on issues relating to the environment including mineral extraction and waste disposal. Lancashire County Council acts for the new authorities of Blackpool and Blackburn with Darwen on minerals policy issues. Cumbria acts for the Lake District National Park Authority in respect of the work undertaken by NWRAWP. The new authorities of Halton and Warrington undertake their own mineral duties. 1.3 The terms of reference of the working party are set out in Appendix 1. 1.4 The year 2002 report is the eleventh annual report to have been prepared and provides information on land and marine won aggregate production and reserves throughout the North West region for the preceding year. Information relating to the progress of development plans, planning applications, construction industry activity, secondary aggregates and mineral review applications is also provided for the period 1 January 2001 to the 31 March 2002. Details on current and future research projects associated with aggregates, which are of a regional significance, are also included. 2. MEMBERSHIP CHANGES 2.1 Any changes? Julie Davies RMC replacing Mr Trow. Inclusion of Peter Huxtable. 3. MEETINGS 3.1 The Working Party has met two times since the 1st January 2001, on the 17th July 2001 and on the 18th April 2002. The main topics of discussion from the remaining two meetings are summarised below. Issues discussed on 17th July 2001 The Case for a Separate Landbank for High Specification Aggregates 3.2 The Working Party considered a paper on the need for a separate landbank for high specification aggregates (HSA). HSA has a polished stone value of at least 58 and is used to surface roads where there are high volumes of commercial traffic and wherever road conditions are likely to give a high risk of skidding related accidents. Three active sites in Cumbria produce HSA, which because of its national scarcity, is substantially exported for use outside the County. Phil Gordon proposed that in order to monitor the effectiveness of local plan policy, and because of its regional and national significance, NWRAWP should publish sales and reserves information for HSA separate from other crushed rock. 3.3 Members agreed that this avenue was the way forward, especially given the fact that HSA is of such national importance. It was also agreed that Cumbria would provide HSA sales and reserves figures for previous years in order for them to be incorporated into the annual report. Status of Halton regarding Apportionment and Monitoring 3.4 Mr Jon Sutcliffe of Halton Borough Council was invited by the Chairman to outline the details the position of Halton in relation to apportionment figures and monitoring returns. Halton, like Warrington, had been included within Cheshire for all surveys and statistics prior to Local Government Review, and now Halton wished to have its future position made clear. The Technical Assistant informed members that Warrington’s position was clarified at the RAWP meeting on the 10th March 1999 where it was agreed that Warrington should be reported with, and therefore have its apportionment /landbank figures be considered as part of the Greater Manchester/Merseyside cohort. Members, therefore, considered it sensible for Halton to also be excluded from Cheshire and included within Greater Manchester and Merseyside. Draft Annual Report 2001 3.5 The draft annual report was introduced by the Secretary. The Working Party was asked to comment upon the draft report and points were taken on board. Issues discussed on 18th April 2001 AM 2001 SURVEY Minerals Technical Advice Note (TAN) (Wales): Aggregates – Consultation Draft 3.6 The Secretary introduced that the latest consultation draft of TAN for aggregates has been released by the National Assembly of Wales. The Secretary suggested that aspects of the TAN will have a significant impact on the north-west as a RAWP region and potentially upon the functioning and roles of RAWPs. The Secretary opened the floor to informal comments but requested more detailed comments to be submitted to the Secretary after the meeting. A summary of initial comments are outlined below: . The TAN outlines a number of threads which would be hard to implement and, in the main, is aspirational in its policy suggestions. It was also suggested that the assumption that slate waste and construction and demolition wastes can be reused as aggregate is potentially overstated and that an increased role for the RAWPs in undertaking environmental capacity studies for their areas was tried in the East Midlands and failed. There was a suggestion the TAN wishes to restrict aggregate movements into the North West of England which should be a concern to the NWRAWP. It was agreed that the North West of England conforms to the proximity principle outlined in the TAN.

    APPLICATION REPORT – 20/01379/FUL Validation Date: 22 December 2020 Ward: Astley And Buckshaw Type of Application: Full Planning Proposal: Erection of four dwellings with garages and an additional triple garage adjacent Buckshaw Hall Location: Buckshaw Hall Knight Avenue Buckshaw Village Chorley PR7 7HW Case Officer: Caron Taylor Applicant: Mr Chris Langson Agent: LMP Ltd Consultation expiry: 23 June 2021 Decision due by: 16 February 2021 RECOMMENDATION 1. It is recommended that planning permission is granted subject to conditions and a S106 legal agreement to tie the profits from the sale of the proposed dwellings to the renovation of Buckshaw Hall. SITE DESCRIPTION 2. The application site is located within the original curtilage of Buckshaw Hall, a Grade II* listed manor house. The land surrounding the building and the application site has been developed into Buckshaw Village. The site is surrounded by dwellings with those associated with Buckshaw Village located to the north, east and south and Buckshaw Hall itself located to the west, along with a converted barn. Site access is gained from Knight Avenue to the east. Planning permission and listed building consent were granted initially in 2003 to make the building weatherproof and then in 2006 for the conversion of the barn within the grounds of Buckshaw Hall for ancillary accommodation and changes to Buckshaw Hall itself so it can be brought back into use as a dwelling. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 3. Buckshaw Hall itself is believed to date in part, from as early as the mid-1600’s with extensive renovation in the late 19th Century.

  • A Glimpse - the History of Beech Hill
    A GLIMPSE - THE HISTORY OF BEECH HILL Introduction Beech Hill Housing estate is less than 100 years old and therefore historical accounts of the area are at a premium. This article concentrates on the period from the late 18th century to present day with particular emphasis on one of Wigan’s premier families, the Thicknesse family of Beech Hill. Victorian Wigan in the mid 1800’s had a population of around 32,000 which was concentrated mainly to the east and south of the town in Scholes and Wallgate and to the west along Ormskirk Road to Orrell. Although housing was creeping up Gidlow Lane and along Woodhouse Lane towards Martland Mill the west and north of Wigan consisted mainly of agricultural land and was sparsely populated. Over the next 50 years the population of the town was to double with Irish immigrants and workers from all parts of the country coming to the area seeking employment in the coal, cotton, engineering and railway industries. Beech Hill of Old The 1845/46 Ordnance Survey (OS) map of Wigan shows a snapshot of Beech Hill as it was 175 years ago. It was dominated by a large wooded area, presumably of Beech trees, stretching from Beech Hill Lane to modern day Wellfield Road and from Beech Hill Avenue to modern day Acacia Crescent. In the centre was a large house dating from the late 1600's, called appropriately Beech Hill Hall. The hall was in its own grounds with a formal garden, parkland and large ponds. By overlaying a modern map over the 1845 version the location of Beech Hill Hall can be pinpointed as being off Ascroft Avenue in the Cherry Grove cul-de-sac.

The first three volume indexes were produced on typewriters, though subsequent issues were produced by computers, and happily digital files had been preserved for these apart from one section of one index. It has therefore been necessary to create digital versions of 3 original indexes using “Optical Character Recognition” (OCR), which has not proved easy due to the relatively poor print, and extremely small text (font) size, of some of the indexes in particular. Thus the OCR results have required extensive proof-reading. Very fortunately, a team of volunteers to assist in the project was recruited from the membership of the Society, and grateful thanks are undoubtedly due to the major players in this exercise – Paul Burkhalter, John Hill, John Hutchings, Frank Jux, John Maddox and Robin Simmonds – with a special thankyou to Russell Wear, current Editor of "IL" and Chairman of the Society, who has both helped and given encouragement to the project in a myraid of different ways. None of this would have been possible but for the efforts of those who compiled the original individual indexes – Frank Jux, Ian Lloyd, (the late) James Lowe, John Scotford, and John Wood – and to the volume index print preparers such as Roger Hateley, who set a new level of presentation which is standing the test of time.

The aim of the study is to establish whether there is a need to designate any further strategic regional sites to meet either a particular locational or sector requirement. Study Objectives 1.3 The brief set a number of questions that have been addressed by the study, these were: • What is the strategic economic context post credit crunch and the implications and outlook for sectors in the region? • In particular, make a judgement on the outlook for financial and business services and for key manufacturing sectors in the region in terms of their property and land requirements over the next decade. Has the outlook for manufacturing land requirements become more positive? Has the outlook for professional services property requirements deteriorated? • What is the outlook for out of town employment sites, including offices, at less sustainable locations (e.g. poorly served by public transport) compared with city centres and town centres? • How is the inward investment market moving in terms of site and property requirements? Are there any particular requirements such as process industries or the expansion or relocation of traditional industries e.g.
