County Durham | DH9 8PL CROFTS EDGE Crofts Edge Loud Hill | Greencroft | County Durham | DH9 8PL CROFTS EDGE Crofts Edge began life as part of a historic range of farm buildings which are believed to date back to the 19th century and were transformed in the 21st century to create an amazing detached country home offering over 4,400 sq feet of living space presented over two floors. When viewing this stunning stone built home you will see the influence of the Mediterranean in the property’s design with tiling and skirting boards running through the ground floor. It is our view that this spacious home will appeal to those seeking a family home in a rural setting or would be a great place for retirement, with bedrooms at both ground and first floor levels. You approach the property along a private lane which is shared with three other properties, with Crofts Edge having its own area of formal garden, extensive parking, integral double garage with a loft room over and a small grass field. From its rural location, situated between Stanley and Consett, the property is well placed for access to Newcastle and Durham as well as main road and rail connections. The North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is also within easy reach as is the Northumberland National Park, Kielder Forest and Observatory and the fabulous Northumberland coastline with its many castles and sandy beaches. Walking through an arched timber gate, a flagged pathway leads to the front entrance of Crofts Edge where you enter a hallway giving access to the cloakroom and integral double garage. The hall leads to the social hub of the property, an open plan living area/kitchen which enjoys views of the gardens. Within the living area is a tall floor mounted cast iron stove and the kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of units at floor and wall level with stylish worktops and a fixed dining area, ideal for informal dining. Within a range of floor to ceiling units are two eye level ovens and a microwave oven. Additional appliances include an induction hob, extractor hood, dishwasher, fridge and freezer. The formal dining room leads directly off the kitchen area and a set of timber double doors open from the living area to a most impressive drawing room. The drawing room is light and spacious with three windows and a white glazed tiled floor plus a modern cantilevered staircase featuring chrome spindles and handrail rising to the first floor. Seller Insight I discovered the site along with a neighbour some years ago. The location really appealed to us, it offers privacy and being away from all traffic is a very quiet place to live. So we set about designing and building Crofts Edge to our exact specification. We set out to create contemporary living space with all of the rooms being spacious and offering plenty of storage. The main reception room is perfectly placed overlooking the beautiful garden and is a wonderful relaxing room, great for watching the birds and wildlife the gardens attract. This room features an amazing bespoke staircase which takes you to the first floor accommodation. The family room is particularly fabulous during the winter months with its log burner creating a cosy, warm atmosphere. The location delivers on every level, you have the peace and tranquillity of the countryside and the house is situated right next to the Derwent Walk offering walking trails and cycle paths. On the other hand Greencroft offers easy access to Durham, Newcastle City centre, the Metrocentre and Newcastle Airport. Corbridge and Hexham are also within a 30 minute drive. It has been a pleasure to live here, the only reason we are moving is that it’s time for us to downsize. We have so many special memories of our time here. I celebrated my 50th birthday with 150 guests mingling between the house and gardens with singers and entertainers performing all day long. The magnificent views will be a miss along with the way the sun rises on one side of the house, we then have the sun all day until it goes down on the other side. Crofts Edge is the perfect place to live and has brought us so much happiness.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property. They have not been independently verified, should not be relied on without verification and do not necessarily reflect the views of the agent. The master bedroom with its palatial en suite bathroom and dressing room plus a guest bedroom also with en suite are located at ground floor level. On the first floor are two further bedrooms, both with stylish en suite facilities, a study and walk in store room. Consett and Stanley offer everyday shopping facilities and there is also schooling at primary in the locality. At a more local level Greencroft and Annfield Plain offer village amenities. This modern home has great green credentials with an air source heat pump heating system, double glazing and three solar panels which are fitted to the garage roof and contribute to the generation of hot water. A charging unit for electric cars is fitted to the central pillar within the garage. Other attractions include a Regavent heat recovery system and central vac unit. The vac unit will be included in the sale. As the selling agent we believe it will be challenging to find a property that provides all of the amazing attributes that Crofts Edge has to offer. All of the benefits of rural tranquillity combined with ease of access to the regions business hubs, glorious countryside and main road network. Sarah Mains Residential Ltd trading as Fine & Country.

Much inclosure of Common Land, Open Fields and Moor Land (or Waste), formerly farmed collectively by the residents on behalf of the Lord of the Manor, had taken place by the 18th century, but the uplands of County Durham remained largely unenclosed. Inclosures, to consolidate land-holdings, divide the land (into Allotments) and fence it off from other usage, could be made under a Private Act of Parliament or by general agreement of the landowners concerned. In the latter case the Agreement would be Enrolled as a Decree at the Court of Chancery in Durham and/or lodged with the Clerk of the Peace, the senior government officer in the County, so may be preserved in Quarter Sessions records. In the case of Parliamentary Enclosure a Local Bill would be put before Parliament which would pass it into law as an Inclosure Act. The Acts appointed Commissioners to survey the area concerned and determine its distribution as a published Inclosure Award.

The answer was less easy to find than the question was to pose.

  • County Durham Plan Wind Turbine Development Evidence Paper 2019 CONTENTS
    County Durham Plan Wind Turbine Development Evidence Paper 2019 CONTENTS Contents 1 Introduction 2 2 Background 4 3 Constraints 11 4 Cumulative effects 21 5 Landscape Sensitivity 33 6 Potential suitable areas 136 Appendices A Residential Visual Amenity 149 B Shadow Flicker 153 C Wind development affecting the North Pennines AONB 154 D Wind development affecting the World Heritage Site 161 CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION 1 Introduction 1.1 The purpose of this Evidence Paper is to support the approach taken in the Wind Turbine Development policy (Policy 36) in the County Durham Plan Preferred Options. It does not seek to provide a discourse on the policy as a whole, but to address the locally- specific issues in County Durham and explain the approach taken in the policy. Our policy approach is positive, identifying suitable areas, and criteria based, to ensure that sustainable and appropriate development is looked upon favourably in line with the "presumption in favour of sustainable development" in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). The policy covers all scales of wind turbine development. 1.2 The UK is required to meet legally binding targets for the generation of 15% of all energy (including electricity, fuel and heating) from renewable sources by 2020. In 2011 the Government produced 'Planning our electric future: a White Paper for secure, affordable and low-carbon electricity' which set out the goal of 'decarbonising' electricity generation. Also in 2011, the Government produced a 'UK Renewable Energy Roadmap' which sets out how the 2020 target will be achieved. This was updated in late 20121 with discussion of progress toward the 2020 target.
