  • “Ringmer to 2030” Appendix A
    “Ringmer to 2030” Appendix A Appendix A summarises the evidence collected by the Ringmer Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group, upon which the policies of the Neighbourhood Plan are based. Ringmer viewed from the former chalkpits of the Lewes Downs SAC. The B2192 from Lewes to Ringmer passes immediately below the SAC, and then snakes towards Ringmer village, invisible behind the trees in the middle distance. Mill Plain, to the right, and the farmland either side of the B2192 are within the South Downs National Park. Morning peak hour traffic queues along the section of road visible here are due to the over-capacity B2192-A26 junction at Earwig Corner.

It is an exceptionally beautiful medieval landscape covering 564 square miles across the counties of East and West Sussex, Kent and Surrey. The High Weald AONB Joint Advisory Committee is a partnership established in 1989 of 15 local authorities, Defra, Natural England and organisations representing farming, woodland, access and community interests. The JAC is responsible for publishing and monitoring the statutory AONB Management Plan. The JAC is supported by a small, dedicated staff team, the High Weald AONB Unit, which provides advice on how to conserve and enhance the AONB. The advice provided by the AONB Unit assists public bodies and statutory undertakers to meet their duty as set out in Section 85 of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 to have regard to the purpose of conserving and enhancing the natural beauty of AONBs in making decisions that affect it. The scope of the advice provided by the High Weald AONB Unit is set by the statutory High Weald AONB Management Plan, which has been adopted by all partner authorities, as ‘their policy for the management of the area and for the carrying out of their functions in relation to it’. Unlike National Park authorities, the High Weald AONB Unit is not a statutory body but an advisory one.
