Rugby Borough Council. 100019417 2010. white consultants Rugby Borough Landscape Capacity Study for Wind Energy Developments Final Report Rugby: Landscape Capacity Study for Wind Energy Development 8. Summary 8.1. The sensitivity analysis considered that of the 10 landscape character types identified in the Borough three have potential to accommodate commercial wind energy. These are the High Cross plateau open plateau, Feldon vale farmlands and Mease lowlands estate farmlands. The Dunsmore plateau farmlands may have some potential for smaller scale wind energy around Lawford Heath if carefully designed and located. 8.2. The capacity analysis of High Cross plateau open plateau considered that there is capacity for one cluster of upto 7 turbines on the higher, less settled northern part of the plateau near the A5 and at a significant distance from Swinford wind farm. Another cluster of upto 4 turbines may possibly be located further east but which minimises effects on Churchover, the character of the Swift valley and cumulative effects in conjunction with Swinford in particular. 8.3. Feldon Vale farmlands are considered to be able to accommodate one cluster of upto 5 turbines, probably in the southern part of the area, but taking into consideration the village church spires and the ironstone hill fringe to the south and east in particular. 8.4. Mease lowlands estate farmlands ability to accommodate commercial turbines is considered limited because though the area may have intrinsic qualities that could accommodate wind energy its size and the large number of receptors close by that may be affected in the surrounding settlements means that wind energy is unlikely to be acceptable. 8.5. It is recommended that this study is used to inform policy, guidance and development control on wind energy development in the Borough. white consultants 29 final/17 March 2011 Final Report Rugby: Landscape Capacity Study for Wind Energy Development APPENDIX A LANDSCAPE SENSITIVITY ASSESSMENT SHEETS white consultants 30 final/17 March 2011 Final Report Rugby: Landscape Capacity Study for Wind Energy Development white consultants 31 final/17 March 2011 Rugby Borough wind energy development sensitivity worksheet Landscape Type No: 1 Landscape Type Name: Dunsmore plateau farmlands Baseline LCA sensitivity Cultural: moderate, Ryton- high Ecological: low Visibility: moderate Overall: moderate, Ryton- high Condition: strong to weak [Lawton Heath] MAIN FACTORS COMMENTS SENSITIVITY CRITERIA PHYSICAL Lower Higher Landform Topographic A gently undulating, low glacial plateau extending as a low ridge east west from Rugby towards Coventry.

Wind turbine development would be in scale with the arable fields to an extent but tend to be out of scale with the broadleaf tree cover and smaller field patterns.

  • Prayer Diary Every Supporting Ligament, Grows and Builds Itself up in Love, As Each Part Does Its Work
    Spiritual Formation Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by Prayer Diary every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work. Ephesians 4:15-16 June 2017 Have you been to the gym recently? Or out for a very good meal? As a society, we spend a lot of time thinking about outward appearances and how to maintain a healthy diet. But do we spend anywhere near as much time thinking about how we nurture our souls? Church as a ‘contact sport’ Over the last few weeks I’ve found myself reflecting at There is a rich vein of two thousand years of Christian teaching and wisdom which can help Archdeacons’ Visitations on five years of ministry as each of us to mature on our own spiritual journey. We are body, mind and spirit, and when Archdeacon Pastor. I’ve been comparing it to a rugby we pay too much attention to one of these, or neglect one, we become somehow dis- match I went to recently because, in my experience, integrated, out of kilter. Finding regular time and space for God, inspired by Christian church can be very much a ‘contact sport’. We are all traditions, literature and art can help us to grow spiritually and restore us to wholesomeness different so disagreements are inevitable; and when they – to be transformed into our unique and authentic selves as God intended us to be.

  • The Roman Sites of South-West Leicestershire
    PLATE I HIGH CROSS—FROM NORTH HIGH CROSS—FROM SOUTH THE ROMAN SITES OF SOUTH-WEST LEICESTERSHIRE BY ARTHUR J. PICKERING, F.G.S. PART I VENON/E TRIPONTIUM Preface THE following notes on the Roman Sites of South-West Leicester­ shire are of a somewhat fragmentary character. They will be found, however, to make some contribution to present day know­ ledge of the Midlands during the Roman occupation and will, the writer hopes, pave the way for excavation of a more ambitious character. The writer is convinced that systematic search and enquiry would reveal a number of other sites in this corner of the county at present unrecorded. Hinckley, Higham-on-the-Hill, Market Bosworth and Peckleton, where some evidence of Roman occupation has come to light, would possibly be found to be homesteads of the Roman-British farmer similar to Barwell and Sapcote. There is here every indication that in early forest clearings the land was tilled and stock raised for the important market town of Ratse Coritanorum. Owing to the lack of vigilance and to the superficial resem­ blance of Roman building material to what may be found on the site of any old cottage, there can be no doubt that much valuable evidence is often overlooked and for ever lost to us. Whatever historical interest these notes may afford to the antiquarian, their value has been considerably enhanced to the student by the descriptive and comparative notes on the coarse pottery contributed by Mr. B. H. St. J. O'Neil, of the Office of Works. His invaluable help in the examination of this material, and also in the revision of the complete type-script of this paper for the press, places the writer under a great debt of gratitude.

  • 4 Crick and the Domesday Book
    HISTORICAL NOTES THE MANORS OF CRICK - 4 Crick and the Domesday Book - 3 As we have seen, the first Norman lord of the manor of Crick was Geoffrey de la Guérche, who held it as part of his baronial estates as a tenant-in-chief of William the Conqueror. He originated from a family of some considerable rank, for his father Silvestre was lord of la Guerche and Pouence, both being towns near Rennes on the border of Brittany and Anjou. Silvestre was Chancellor of Brittany, but after the death of his wife, he entered the Church, and in 1075 was consecrated Bishop of Rennes. Geoffrey was known in Brittany as de Pouence, but after coming to England he changed his title to de la Guerche. It is by no means certain, but quite probable that in fact he held a command in William's invading army of 1066, for a count of Brittany named Alan Fergant provided and led a third of the entire force. Since these men were Bretons, Geoffrey could well have been amongst them. His social rank alone would have hardly qualified him otherwise for the extent of his estates afterwards awarded to him by William. It is easy, and indeed customary, to regard a village at the time of the Domesday Survey - and, for that matter, in the succeeding centuries as an isolated entity having an independent place in history. The reality was very much otherwise. Every village was part of a group, large or small, which made up the estate of a tenant-in-chief, and thus Crick was but one manor amongst the considerable number held by Geoffrey de la Guerche.
