  • Silverdale and Ballasalla, Malew Preliminary Character Appraisal
    Silverdale and Ballasalla, Malew Preliminary character appraisal Patricia A Tutt For Office of Planning January 2010 Ballabeg character appraisal: Purpose and Scope Page | 2 This Appraisal has been prepared at the request of the Conservation Officer, Office of Planning. Its purpose has been to carry out a preliminary assessment of the heritage, landscape and townscape character of Silverdale and its links with Ballasalla, with a view to establishing whether the area merits the designation of Conservation Area. The Appraisal has been carried out by Patricia A Tutt, Dip Arch, RIBA, Cert Ed, ARPS. 3 Patrick Street Peel IM5 1BP E: [email protected] Ballabeg character appraisal: Contents Page | 3 Evolution and history . Silverdale – glen, mills, landscape . Ballasalla . Rushen Abbey Visual features: townscape character Visual features: landscape character Strategies for protection . SWOT analysis . Planning policy Conclusions Zonal breakdown and gazetteer of buildings in Ballasalla References and sources The 1869 map of Ballasalla shows a village that may have developed around Rushen Abbey and the Abbey farms but which, in the late nineteenth century, had evolved from the utilisation of the river for industrial use and the traffic generated by the merging of roads from Douglas, St Marks, Foxdale, Ballabeg and Castletown. Ballasalla has, or had, the church, chapels, shop, post office and public house, but does not seem to have had a market place, although Smith’s Directory of 1883 refers to Ballasalla’s Annual Fairs being held on the ‘Ancient Fair Ground’ on the fourth Wednesday in January Page | 4 and the Second Wednesday in August. We also have Cumming (1857) – ‘Ballasalla, famous, last century, for its poultry market and the largest and most picturesque village in the Island.’ SILVERDALE CONSERVATION AREA The proposed area includes a range of uses, ownership and character typologies, and these need clarifying.
