Canterbury is about 14 miles to the north whilst the fast growing town of Ashford with its domestic and international passenger station is a similar distance to the west. The High Speed Rail service to London St. Pancras is available at Folkestone West Station with a journey time of approximately 50/55 minutes. The Alkham Valley is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The hamlet of South Alkham has a garden centre, an equestrian shop and a cafe whilst the nearby village of Alkham is home to the Marquis at Alkham, a former pub which is now a restaurant with boutique bed & breakfast rooms. Upton Farm Barn The current owners completed the conversion of the barn in August 2004 and moved into the property in November of the same year. The barn has been converted to a high standard to provide spacious and flexible living accommodation within its period oak frame. Adjoining the eastern elevation of the barn is a single storey offshoot which has planning consent as an office but could easily be used as a separate annexe with its own kitchen and bathroom. Gardens There are lawns to each side of the entrance drive and larger lawned areas to both the front and rear of the barn. Also at the rear of the barn is a large stone terrace providing lots of space for dining tables and chairs or garden loungers. Outside A concrete roadside apron from Lockeringe Lane leads to a large entrance drive offset with traditional post & rail fencing. An electrically operated entrance gate to the left leads to the barn and garaging with separate gates to the right leading to the general purpose barn and land. At the end of the first drive and close to the barn are the Garage/Store Rooms being a 4 bay garage of flint and block construction with oak support posts, 2 adjoining store rooms, 1 of which includes a WC and wash basin. Buildings The buildings are considered to have potential for change of use to alternative uses if required (see “Planning” below). 1) Main Barn About 60’9 x 60’8 of concrete frame with part concrete floor, recently reclad in green profile sheeting, electric roller shutter door, flood and ceiling lights. The mobile home located in the corner of the barn will be removed by the seller if the buyer does not want to retain it. 2) Former Stables a) 3 Stables each about 13’9 x 9’10. b) Small Barn/Internal Stables about 31’6 x 15’6. These stables are currently being renovated by the owner with a new roof and stable doors being added in the near future. 3) Former Dairy/Workshop about 58’3 x 26’11 of flint and brick construction with a concrete floor. It is felt that this building has potential for conversion to an annexe, holiday cottage/cottages, subject to planning consent being obtained. Land The land comprises a single parcel of pastureland which lies to the south west of the barn and buildings as outlined on the plan attached. The land could easily be divided into small paddocks for horses, ponies or livestock grazing. There is also ample space for a riding arena. Riding Local lanes off the Alkham Valley Road provide excellent hacking within the area. Toll Rides For details of local toll rides go to www.tollrides.org.uk.

Map Features: Annotation 2: North West Deal and Sholden Annotation 3: South Deal and Castle Annotation 4: Maxton, Elms Vale and Tower Hamlets Comment text: Dover and Deal Conservative Association largely supports the proposal submitted by Dover District Council but makes different proposals in some wards and submits additional evidence. In Dover, we concur that it would be inappropriate and unnecessary to have wards which cross the external boundaries of the Dover Town Council area as electoral equality can be maintained without diminishing the delivery of convenient and effective local government that cross border wards might cause. We considered a ward encompassing all of the seafront area and the activities of the Port of Dover but the electors in that area have no significant interaction with port operations there being no concentration of employment in maritime trades which instead draw their workers from across Dover District and beyond. Instead we support the inclusion of all town centre activities in one ward which will enable members representing that ward to better understand the specific issues such an area generates. To create a ward that includes the somewhat separate community of Aycliffe with enough electors to form a ward we support its combination with the distinctive, concentrated and cohesive Clarendon area.

  • Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection
    Topic Paper: Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection Dover District Local Plan Supporting document The Selection of Site Allocations for the Draft Local Plan This paper provides the background to the selection of the proposed housing, gypsy and traveller and employment site allocations for the Draft Local Plan, and sets out the reasoning behind the selection of specific site options within the District’s Regional, District, Rural Service, Local Centres, Villages and Hamlets. Overarching Growth Strategy As part of the preparation of the Local Plan the Council has identified and appraised a range of growth and spatial options through the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) process: • Growth options - range of potential scales of housing and economic growth that could be planned for; • Spatial options - range of potential locational distributions for the growth options. By appraising the reasonable alternative options the SA provides an assessment of how different options perform in environmental, social and economic terms, which helps inform which option should be taken forward. It should be noted, however, that the SA does not decide which spatial strategy should be adopted. Other factors, such as the views of stakeholders and the public, and other evidence base studies, also help to inform the decision. The SA identified and appraised five reasonable spatial options for growth (i.e. the pattern and extent of growth in different locations): • Spatial Option A: Distributing growth to the District’s suitable and potentially suitable housing and employment site options (informed by the HELAA and Economic Land Review). • Spatial Option B: Distributing growth proportionately amongst the District’s existing settlements based on their population.
