  • Living Lakes
    Pre-Submission Local Plan Living Lakes Your Local Plan #ShapeTheLakes April 2019 Credit: Andrew Locking Andrew “TheSection 1 IntroductionLake District is an2 evolving masterpiece, shaped and modified by people, culture, farming and industry for thousands of years.” Lord Clark of Windermere, 2015 Section 1 Introduction i Foreword Since our Core Strategy was adopted in 2010, planning policy has undergone some significant changes as set out in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). As such, we need to ensure our plans are fit for purpose and conform to national planning policy. The new Local Plan will be our strategic plan for development for the Lake District up to 2035. Our aim has been to produce a planning framework that delivers the homes, communities and countryside that the Lake District wants and needs. We want to deliver our vision for the Lake District to be ‘an inspirational example of sustainable development in action’. The Lake District received its inscription as a World Heritage Site in July 2017. In the longer term we want World Heritage Status to be a positive force to support new investment in the Lake District’s cultural and natural environment, its communities and economies. One of our key challenges is to enable growth to provide housing and jobs whilst conserving the landscape and its Special Qualities and attributes of Outstanding Universal Value. We have gathered evidence and listened to our communities, businesses and stakeholders to find out what the key issues are in the Lake District and how we can use this plan to deliver those aspirations. This Plan is a result of consultation and engagement with our communities, businesses, organisations and stakeholders.

  • George Douglas Campbell Eckton
    I Great Langdale Valley, Cumbria: An Analysis of the viability of road-user charging as a Demand Management Tool for motor-vehicle dependent recreation George Douglas Campbell Eckton This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for a Master of Arts (by Research) degree awarded by the University of Central Lancashire. November 2002 ABSTRACT This research was focused on analysing the potential application of road-user charging to the Transportation Demand Management Strategy for Great Langdale Valley in the Lake District National Park. There were three research objectives: firstly, to investigate the response of motorists to the hypothetical imposition of monetary road-user charges for entry to Great Langdale Valley (Bovaird et al, 1984); secondly, observe the impact of road-user charging on the host community of Great Langdale Valley (Holding, 1998); thirdly, to examine the suitability of the Contingent Valuation Methodology to elicit monetary preferences for road-user charging in a non-laboratory setting. The research methodology employed to elicit behavioural responses to certain price levels for road use was the Contingent Valuation Method (Mitchell and Carson, 1989). Three stakeholder samples were surveyed: visitor, resident and business operator samples. All three were administered with mail-back questionnaires containing hypothetical Contingent Valuation scenarios. Willingness To Pay (WTP) questions to elicit monetary preferences for road use were posed to the visitor and resident samples, whereas the business operator sample respondents were asked for their Willingness To Accept (WTA) a compensation payment for the potential impact of the road-user charging scheme on their trade. The research findings determined that a road-user charge would result in a considerable reduction in the visitor sample's intention to use a private motor-vehicle on the Great Langdale valley road network.

  • "Bred up in the Study of That Faculty": Licensed Physicians in North-West England, 1660-1760
    Medical Histon, 1994, 38: 398-420. "BRED UP IN THE STUDY OF THAT FACULTY": LICENSED PHYSICIANS IN NORTH-WEST ENGLAND, 1660-1760 by DAVID HARLEY * The structure of medical practice in early modern England has been the subject of considerable historiographical attention in recent years. There has been discussion of the declining authority of learned physicians, the increasing supply and diverse character of practitioners, and the role of medicine as a market commodity in the nascent consumer society. ' The shift of focus away from corporate institutions and a handful of "great men" towards ordinary patients and practitioners is clearly leading to a far more sophisticated understanding of the history of medicine, but the ubiquitous metaphor of the "medical marketplace" also has its potential pitfalls. Among them are the implicit tendencies to treat practitioners as if they were social equals, supplying an undifferentiated commodity, and to ignore restrictions on the freedom of trade. The collapse of the medical hierarchy and the growth of a free market need to be balanced against social stratification and the factors that shaped both demand and supply. Without such an account, many of the tensions and conflicts in early modern medicine must remain incomprehensible. Any effective system of medical licensing limits competition between practitioners by restricting entry into the market and punishing interlopers. It divides practitioners both by inclusion within a hierarchy and by exclusion, on such grounds as sex, education, and religion.2 In assessing the medical services available in the past, it is necessary to discover * David N.
