  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Bodenham, either homestead or enclosure of a man called BOTA or BODA, or Old English for “place where the Beadle lived”, is an attractive village which lies just east of the A49 on the eastern edge of Dinmore Hill mid way between Hereford and Leominster. It falls entirely in an Area of Great Landscape Value and is a Conservation Area. The River Lugg on which it stands is one of the few rivers in the country to be designated throughout its length as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Lugg is a Celtic word for “bright stream”. There are interesting old houses and timbered cottages, and the interesting church of St Michael and All Angels is well worth a visit. The village has strong associations with the Devereux and Arkwright families and ample evidence of their influence on the area is to be seen on the walks. Based on the footpaths of Bodenham (BM) the walks include some connecting footpaths in Hope under Dinmore (HD) and Marden (MR) in order to create circular walks. The series of notes draw attention to the points of interest on the walks and their historical background. In 1990 a group of retired residents, organised by Bodenham Ramblers, joined, in cooperation with Hereford and Worcester County Council, a project to open up public rights of way by the year 2000. Work in Bodenham was completed in 1991 and the group went on to restore, in total, some 35 miles (56 km) of paths in 7 further parishes. The work was carried out with enthusiasm, much humour and a sense of achievement.

  • Hope Under Dinmore Neighbourhood Development Plan
    Neighbourhood Development Plan Submission draft May 2016 Hope-under-Dinmore Group Parish Council Prepared by DJN Planning Ltd. for Hope under Dinmore Group Parish Council INTRODUCTION This is the submission draft of the Hope-under-Dinmore Neighbourhood Development Plan. The Plan has been prepared by a Project Group of Parish Councillors and local volunteers, with professional planning help. It looks ahead to 2031, and tackles such topics as a village boundary for Hope-under-Dinmore, new housing, the local economy, design, and protecting open spaces. We started work in 2014, carrying out a household survey and looking in detail at possible land for new housing in and around the village. We then drew up a draft Plan, which was published and circulated throughout the parishes in November last year for comment. The responses received have been carefully considered in preparing this next version of the Plan. You can find details of all the comments made and our response in the accompanying Consultation Statement. We have made a number of changes to the draft Plan as a result of the consultation. This version of the Plan has been prepared for the next stage of the process – submission to Herefordshire Council. The Plan then has to go through a number of checks, including an independent Examination, before it can be approved for adoption. The final stage is a parish referendum – a majority of those who vote need to agree with the Plan for it to be finalised and come into use. It will then become the formal starting point for decisions on planning applications in the parishes, together with the complementary policies in Herefordshire Council’s Local Plan.

  • Yarpole Parish Council Response to Examiner's Questions
    EXAMINATION OF THE YARPOLE GROUP NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2011 to 2031 Examiner’s comments and questions I have completed my initial appraisal of the submitted Yarpole Group Neighbourhood Development Plan (‘the YGNDP’) and I have read the written representations made in response to the Regulation 16 consultation. From this appraisal I have identified a number of matters upon which I require further information or clarification and to this end I pose a number of questions to which I require responses by the Yarpole Group Parish Council (YGPC) as the ‘Qualifying Body’ for the preparation of this plan. In this note I set out the background considerations leading to my questions by the use of italic script. Where appropriate I indicate the representation which has given rise to a particular comment and question. I raise an issue only where I consider it possible that I may need to recommend that the plan be modified in order that it fully satisfies the basic conditions. The italicised comments in this document give an indication of my preliminary views on the listed topics. The questions are then posed in such a way as to provide the YGPC with an opportunity to respond either to the questions themselves or to my preliminary view(s) should that be considered appropriate. My final conclusions and recommendations will be given in my formal report to the Herefordshire Council at the end of the examination. It is important that the examination is undertaken in an open and fair manner and any important documents will be made available on the Herefordshire Council website for this plan.
