See pages 20 to 23 . THE MANSION HOUSE AT LUTON HOO The 18th century facade of the Grade I listed Mansion House reflects the style and elegance of this celebrated property and its illustrious past. It is surrounded by historic gardens, parkland and meadows inhabited by pheasants, rabbits, deer and grazing sheep and two lakes covering 50 acres abounding with fish and wildfowl – all landscaped by the famous architect ‘Capability’ Brown. Yet Luton Hoo’s exterior conceals luxurious accommodation, innovative cuisine, superb meeting and banqueting facilities and quality support and service which belong firmly in the 21st century. 18thcentury elegance and grandeur The warmth and sincerity of welcome is as you would expect from good friends. The grandeur of the Great Hall epitomises the style of the Mansion House – at the base of the spectacular oval staircase is a striking sculpture in the style of Bergonzoli, and the Pillared Hall and Italianate Drawing Room provide a peaceful oasis for morning coffee, an informal meeting with colleagues or pre dinner drinks. The original State Dining Rooms and Grinling Gibbons Room have been sensitively restored and are now the setting of the award winning Wernher Restaurant. Its exotic marble panelwork and richly coloured fabrics, reminiscent of the Palace of Versailles, provide a stunning backdrop for the enjoyment of superb cuisine and wines, for which the Restaurant has won critical acclaim. Exquisitely decorated rooms and suites The Mansion House contains 35 stately and exquisitely decorated rooms and suites, the varying sizes and styles of which mean that no two rooms are alike. With outstanding features including silk lined and panelled walls, marble fireplaces and ornately decorated ceilings, the nine state and principal suites are named after royalty and eminent persons connected with the estate during its lifetime, among them Queen Elizabeth II and Lord Mountbatten. A landscaped courtyard with covered pergola provides the walkway from the Mansion House to the Parkland Wing, which features 38 air-conditioned bedrooms and suites, including the stunning Roof Garden Suite . Commanding panoramic views east and west across the estate , the beautifully designed roof garden is perfect for summer al fresco dining or a private reception. Versatility and style for any event For an off-site meeting where you and your colleagues will have time and space to think…a venue for an all important presentation that will impress your clients and guests…or a location that will comfortably accommodate a conference for up to 120 delegates – it is hard to improve on the meeting facilities at Luton Hoo. With 17 fully equipped suites and syndicate rooms of varying sizes containing the very best facilities, a licence for civil ceremonies and a range of private dining venues, the Mansion House at Luton Hoo has the versatility to meet any requirement.

Surrounded by the lake and tributaries of the River Lea, Warren Weir offers a tranquil, yet all encompassing, meeting and wedding venue complementing the facilities of the Mansion House, but capable of accommodating larger meetings and events where exclusivity is important. Warren Weir includes an accommodation wing with 84 delightful bedrooms and suites, all commanding views over the lake, weir, private gardens or river with suites named after wildfowl to be found in the surrounding water meadows. The hospitality lounge on the first floor with panoramic views of the river and woodland beyond, provides the facility to welcome your guests in style or to simply relax after the pressures of the day. Exclusive, private and tranquil The Warren Weir Suite, complete with private garden and overlooking the River Lea, comprises five individually designed function rooms adaptable for conference or leisure use and licensed for weddings and civil ceremonies, Warren Lounge, business desk, syndicate suite and dedicated leisure facilities. Importance is placed on meeting the flexibility, comfort and support required for every guest at Warren Weir, whether it’s for a major product launch, an annual conference with syndicate meetings or a memorable civil ceremony and reception. The Lea Suite on the ground floor offers the largest of Warren Weir’s conferencing spaces. This columned room with open fireplace, adjacent terrace and direct access from Warren Weir’s catering facilities and kitchen can accommodate up to 280 for banqueting and 340 for a reception.

Flawed / Absent Local Plan site selection process to-date: Pickfield Nursery was submitted to EFDC in response to the Call for Sites consultation in 2008 and has subsequently been promoted through the current Local Plan process since its inception in 2012. EFDC’s July 2012 SLAA referred to Pickfield Nursery as site SR-0161 but incorrectly identified it as a duplicate site with a much larger parcel (SLAA Reference SR-0020). Representations were then submitted in October 2012 highlighting this mistake. However, despite the submission of detailed representations and subsequent regular liaison with EFDC’s officers (including a positive formal pre-application meeting), EFDC’s Site Selection evidence base published in 2016 discounted Pickfield Nursery prior to Stage 1 of the selection process, once again incorrectly considering it as a duplicate site. Pickfield Nursery was finally acknowledged as an individual site in the Local Plan evidence base in the “Sites for consideration following Regulation 18 consultation” list published in July 2017. However, at the time of writing these representations (26th January 2018, one working day before the Pre-Submission consultation deadline) an assessment of these sites has still not been undertaken and Appendix C1 of the Report on Site Selection (December 2017) has not been completed.

The model simulates nitrogen and phosphorus processes in soils, groundwaters and river systems and can be applied in a semi-distributed manner at a range of scales. In this study, the model has been applied at field to sub-catchment to whole catchment scale to evaluate the behaviour of biosolid-derived losses of P in agricultural systems. It is shown that process-based models such as INCA, applied at a wide range of scales, reproduce field and catchment behaviour satisfactorily. The INCA model can also be used to generate generic information for risk assessment. By adjusting three key variables: biosolid application rates, the hydrological connectivity of the catchment and the initial P-status of the soils within the model, a matrix of P loss rates can be generated to evaluate the behaviour of the model and, hence, of the catchment system.

    Dunstable and the Surrounding Area

    Dunstable and the surrounding area Excellent transport links between St. Pancras and Luton Parkway railway stations means Dunstable is easily reached from London. Excellent road links mean Cambridge is easily accessible and Luton Airport puts Dunstable in touch with cities from all over Europe Dunstable is the oldest charter town in Bedfordshire and is currently home to approximately 36,000 residents, who regularly elect their own Town Council and Central Bedfordshire Council representatives to manage local affairs. Dunstable is fiercely proud of its rich heritage yet, whilst it may be steeped in history, it is very much a town in the present, working towards a bright future. The Grove theatre which opened in 2007 provides Dunstable with a 780-seat purpose built arts and entertainment centre. The development which includes accompanying bars and restaurants overlooking the beautiful re-landscaped Grove House Gardens, provides a striking heart to the cultural identity of the area and a venue for a variety of events. Priory House Heritage and Tourist Information Centre also offers a full programme of entertainment and exhibitions as well as an insight into Dunstable’s amazing past. ZSL Whipsnade Zoo, formerly known as Whipsnade Wild Animal Park, is a zoo and safari park located at Whipsnade, near Dunstable in Bedfordshire. It is one of two zoos that are owned by the Zoological Society of London, a charity devoted to the worldwide conservation of animals and their habitats. Neighboring Luton is the home to Stockwood Park Discovery Centre and Wardown Park and Museum both of these are well worth a visit and are accessible by public transport.

    Northern Thames Basin Area Profile: Supporting Documents

    National Character 111: Northern Thames Basin Area profile: Supporting documents www.naturalengland.org.uk 1 National Character 111: Northern Thames Basin Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper1, Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention3, we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future. 1 The Natural Choice: Securing the Value of Nature, Defra NCA profiles are working documents which draw on current evidence and (2011; URL: www.official-documents.gov.uk/document/cm80/8082/8082.pdf) 2 knowledge.
