The District Council is required by Section 71 of the Town and Country Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 to formulate and publish proposals for the preservation and enhancement of Conservation Areas. This can be achieved through Conservation Area Appraisals. West Dorset has 79 Conservation Areas and the council has agreed on a programme of character appraisals. Loders and Uploders and Powerstock and Nettlecombe Conservation Areas form part of this appraisal work, grouped together because of their geographical proximity. The two Conservation Areas were designated as follows: • Loders and Uploders, April 1975, revised February 1990 and December 2007 • Powerstock and Nettlecombe, January 1975 In order that designation is effective in conserving the special interest, planning decisions must be based on a thorough understanding of the Conservation Areas’ character.

  • Askerswell Neighbourhood Plan Pre-Submission Draft
    Askerswell Forum: Neighbourhood Plan - Pre-Submission Draft 2017 Askerswell Neighbourhood Plan 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 The Askerswell Neighbourhood Plan has been developed for the area of Askerswell Parish all of which lies in the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (Dorset AONB) in the upper part of the Asker Valley, east of Bridport in West Dorset. The village of Askerswell is listed in the Domesday Book. The Parish has 184 residents according to the 2011 Census, and 138 people are on the electoral register (2017). 1.2 West Dorset District Council (WDDC) as the Local Planning Authority designated the Askerswell Forum as the group to develop a Neighbourhood Plan for this area on 10th February 2015. 1.3 The Neighbourhood Plan is compatible with the strategic policies of the Local Plan for West Dorset, Weymouth and Portland, as adopted in 2015. Jointly, these plans describe what types of development will generally be allowed within the defined area of the Parish of Askerswell. They also provide and justify protection within the area to the natural and built environment. Planning applications should be decided in accordance with the adopted Local and Neighbourhood Plan, unless these are over- ridden by other material considerations. 1.4 The Askerswell Neighbourhood Plan has a vision statement that takes full cognisance of residents’ appreciation of living in an exceptional part of the Dorset AONB and the values of the small but cohesive community that is centred on its village. Its distinctive character and level of community pride is evidenced by receiving the Best Small Village in Dorset award four times since 1993 including in 2016.

  • The Bridport Green Route
    Mayors Blog 9 - The Bridport Green Route A wonderful new circular walk around Bridport has recently been established - Bridport Green Route. The new Bridport Green Route has been developed by Bridport Town Council with input from volunteers from local health and access groups, who kindly gave their time to help research the easy going walking trail that takes in many of the valuable green spaces that help define the town. The launch of the new Bridport Green Route comes at a good time; the warmer weather and the easing of the lockdown means that we, the residents of Bridport and our visitors, can take advantage of the trail for daily exercise or simply exploring some the many special green spaces within the town. A few days ago I took the opportunity to explore the Green Route and what a treat it turned out to be. Because it is a circular walk you can join it at any point and just keep going in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction until you reach your start point again. For me the starting point was Asker Meadow and I followed the route in a clockwise direction. As I walked along the wide path the River Asker was on my right. Asker Meadow is one of many wildlife havens in the heart of the town. On the day of my walk the fields were abuzz with insects and dozens of butterflies. There are three footbridges over the river that lead to South Street and the town centre. The one in the image below takes you to St Mary’s Church via South Street car park and the public toilets.
