Photo: Mervyn Allcock New Technology on Test Opening On 31st March, shortly after the Roundhouse - like the rest of the Shot... country - had gone into lockdown, Railview (a railway research company which uses Barrow Hill for testing) undertook filming of its latest prototype technology, mounted on a Mercedes Unimog road rail vehicle. This filming was obviously subject to social distancing requirements and risk assessments were undertaken prior to it taking place. The video that was created from this activity then formed the basis of an online webinar and Q&A session on 23rd April with representatives of the railway industry including Network Rail, a potential user of this technology. This shot was captured just before the class 08 was loaded for onward transit to a HNRC contract; it is pictured here with class 45 45060 and class 47 47769.

Heath End Conservation Area Appraisal and Study
HEATH END CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL AND STUDY OCTOBER 2002 PREFACE The District Council has a duty under Section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 to determine which parts of the District are of special architectural or historical interest which it is desirable to preserve and enhance and to designate such areas as Conservation Areas. Having regard to these requirements and the advice contained in the English Heritage guidance notes 'Conservation Area Practice' and 'Conservation Area Appraisals', in July 2002 the District Council produced an appraisal document proposing the designation of a conservation area at Heath End. The document 'Heath End : An Appraisal For Conservation Area Designation' was the subject of consultation and publicity over a six week period between 1 August 2002 and 12 September 2002. Having considered the various representations and recommended amendments the District Council's Executive Board of 29 October 2002 resolved the following :- (1) to approve the designation of a Conservation Area at Heath End. (2) to adopt (subject to amendments) the consultation document 'Heath End : An Appraisal For Conservation Area Designation' as the Heath End Conservation Area Appraisal/Study as supplementary planning guidance to the policies of the North West Leicestershire Local Plan. As supplementary planning guidance the Conservation Area Appraisal/Study document whilst not having the same status as an adopted plan policy may be taken into account as a material consideration in the determination of planning applications.
