Introduction The Neighbourhood Plan Where modifications are recommended, they are presented as bullet points and highlighted in bold print, with any proposed new wording in italics. This Report provides the findings of the examination into the Thurcaston and Cropston Neighbourhood Plan (referred to as the Neighbourhood Plan). Neighbourhood planning provides communities with the power to establish their own policies to shape future development in and around where they live and work. “Neighbourhood planning gives communities direct power to develop a shared vision for their neighbourhood and deliver the sustainable development they need.” (Paragraph 183, National Planning Policy Framework) Thurcaston and Cropston Parish Council is the qualifying body responsible for the production of this Neighbourhood Plan. This is in line with the aims and purposes of neighbourhood planning, as set out in the Localism Act (2011), the National Planning Policy Framework (2012) and Planning Practice Guidance (2014). This Examiner’s Report provides a recommendation as to whether or not the Neighbourhood Plan should go forward to a Referendum.

  • THE LEICESTERSHIRE LIN: a RIVER THROUGH TIME Ernest Miller and Anthony Squires
    230487 05c-131-154 18/10/09 10:57 Page 131 THE LEICESTERSHIRE LIN: A RIVER THROUGH TIME Ernest Miller and Anthony Squires The River Lin rises at Ulverscroft in the uplands of Charnwood Forest and follows a U-shaped course before emptying into the River Soar at Quorn (Quorndon). This distance is only a little over 17km and nowhere could the Lin be regarded as more than a modest brook. The purpose of this paper is to examine the many different ways the river has been harnessed to serve the needs and demands of generations of local people through almost a thousand years. In addition the writers hope that their researches and fieldwork may point the way to other local studies along similar lines. INTRODUCTION Along its natural course the river seldom encounters a feature which interrupts its slow, steady and even sluggish flow. Only in Bradgate Park and at a few other places does the surface break into ripples and the speed quicken (Fig. 1). At different places along its length the Lin is known by at least four local names. These vary according to whom one speaks and which maps are used. For present purposes, from its source to Ulverscroft mill it is the Ulverscroft brook. From there to the dam of Cropston Reservoir it is the River Lin. Thereafter, as far as the dam of Swithland Reservoir it is the Bybrook and on the final leg of its journey to the Soar it is the Buddon brook. Although we employ these names the term ‘River Lin’ recognises the water course in its entirety.

  • Heritage 212 Q4 2013
    No. 212 1 October - 31 December 2013 Editorial Panel: Helen Ikin, Steve Woodward, Jim Graham. Hon. Sec. Judy Johnson, 27 Sandalwood Road, Loughborough, Leics. LE11 3PR (01509-214711) Recording at Beacon Hill, Bradgate Park and Swithland Wood The Club has responded to requests from the owners of these sites to update wildlife records. At Beacon Hill, Mick Moffatt was interested in records for the restored grass/heathland. Some members undertook fieldwork there in 2013. SFW and HI made a detailed study of the grassland vegetation, using the National Vegetation Classification (NVC) recording method. A report on these surveys was compiled by SFW in Jan 2014. An electronic copy has been lodged at LRERC and is available to members upon request to SFW or HI. As he explained at the Recorders' Conference on 22 February, Peter Tyldesley at the Bradgate Park Trust is keen for the Club to be involved in biological surveys. HI and SFW are particularly interested in the bees, wasps and ants in Bradgate Park. They have also begun to investigate the ponds, streams and ditches for aquatic life. GLF has arranged for a moth trap to be run, more-or-less regularly, at the Deer Barn. He is also sampling the beetle fauna of the park.
