In these dark times, we can see the green shoots of Spring all around us, as the days lengthen and the increasing warmth and sunshine remind us that summer is not that far away. In this issue, you can see this reflected in the many uplifting contributions from our organisations and clubs throughout our communities, and the determination that this invisible Covid foe will not break us.

  • Studland Parish News September 2021
    Studland Parish News October 2021 St Nicholas Church Studland See the Parish News in full colour – www.studlandchurch.com Note from the editor… As I compile this month’s edition, I am filled with such a sense of community spirit. It is a pleasure to read all the submissions about what is happening in the village this Autumn. There is simply so much going on, we are really spoiled for choice. I am sure you will find the same as you read through the pages, and I hope to see you at some of the events. With all the harvesting going on this month, I thought the Blessing of the Month below was appropriate as we gather together on different occasions to reap what has been sown. It is great that we are able to do this again, thinking back to last year. Also, you will find a piece on St Luke on Page 21, which I felt was also very fitting, especially as we are privileged to have a group of medical staff showing us another side of their skills in the Old harry bar on October 16th. As the nights draw in, a lot of people struggle with their energy levels, so this array of things to do is a great way to boost our energy and look after our wellbeing. If you know someone who struggles with the change of season, why not invite them out and help give them a boost. Sharon Westman, Editor Gratefulness “Small grateful acts every day can uplift us, make a difference for others, and help change the world.” Blessing of the month You bless us with Kitchen Noises – with the sound of chopping, the rumbling from washing pots and pans, the clinking of silverware, the clang of glass on glass, the whistling of the kettle, and all the homely rattle and clatter produced by preparing food and washing dishes.

  • Piddle Valley Conservation Area Review
    Item 14 Council Meeting – 16 January 2018 Piddle Valley Conservation Area review 1. Purpose of report The purpose of this report is to seek the Council’s approval to adopt the draft appraisal and boundary proposal prepared for Piddle Valley Conservation Area. 2. Key issues 2.1 The Council designates and reviews conservation areas in fulfilment of statutory duties under Section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. Purbeck District has twenty five Conservation Areas, twenty-two of which have been appraised and reviewed since their designation, twenty-one of these since 2008. 2.2 A conservation area is a historic built environment designation. The designation promotes the preservation and enhancement of groups of buildings and structures which hold special historic or architectural interest, together with associated spaces and trees. This is primarily achieved through the sensitive management of change within the planning process. 2.3 Paragraph 127 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) highlights the importance of ensuring that conservation area designations are justified. This is the key objective of the boundary review, and ensures fairness in the application of controls, and soundness in case of appeal against planning decisions. 2.4 The Council has a statutory duty to consider the impact of planning proposals upon conservation areas. This is reflected in paragraph 129 of the NPPF, which requires local planning authorities to assess the significance of heritage assets as part of the development management process. Assessment of significance is a key objective of conservation area character appraisals, and therefore provides the Council with an important part of the required evidence base in decision making.
