Parish Councillors had already submitted the following Objections: 1- The design and appearance of the new building is not in keeping with the surrounding area. 2- The development is on the edge of the AONB and will have an impact on the AONB. The views from the sea running parallel with the proposed development will be seen from a great distance down the coast. Page No 310 Ch’s Initials ________ 3- The development is neither sympathetic or blend in to the surrounding area, to the eye and it looks nothing like slatted castle windows or a lighthouse observatory. It is understandable that the landowners wish to maximise the fantastic views of the wonderful coastline, however the proposed structure will have a regrettable detrimental impact on the area for the life of its presence. 4- This type of building is acceptable in the correct location i.e. in an urban location.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding

    Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding

    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.

Executive Summary • Recent research has highlighted an increasing separation of work and residential location as commuting journey lengths increase. This is particularly the case for rural residents, who tend to have longer commutes than urban residents. Whilst commuters bring money to their place of residence that has been earned outside the locality, they also represent a leakage of money from the locality often commuting for work is associated with commuting for other activities, including retail and leisure spending.
