A megkeresésre az alábbi tájékoztatást adom: A hajó 2012. február 26-án süllyedt el. Azt követően egyesületünk honlapján – egy a hajónak szentelt tematikus aloldalon – rendszeresen tettük közzé a hajóra és a mentésére vonatkozó információkat, képeket, videókat (http://hajosnep.hu/#!/lapok/lap/szoke-tisza-karmentes), amelyekből szinte napi ütemezésben nyomon követhetők a február 26-március 18 között történt események. A honlapon elérhető információkat nem kívánom itt megismételni. Egyebekben a hajó jelentőségéről és az esetleges városi véleménynyilvánítás elősegítésére az alábbiakat tartom szükségesnek kiemelni: I) A hajó jelentősége: Bár a Kulturális Örökségvédelmi Hivatal előtt jelenleg zajlik a hajó örökségi védelembe vételére irányuló eljárás (a hajó örökségi

    Hamble-le-Rice Hamble-le-Rice 1.0 PARISH Hamble-le-Rice 2.0 HUNDRED Mainsbridge 3.0 NGR 448100 106730 4.0 GEOLOGY Plateau Gravel; Bracklesham Beds to the south. Alluvium in the river valley. 5.0 SITE CONTEXT (Map 2) Hamble (le Rice) is situated on a triangular tongue of land that is bounded on the east by the River Hamble and to the south and west by Southampton Water. The parish is c.3.5km² being <5m AOD in the area of the riverside (east) but rising to c. 18m AOD within 500m westwards. There are several listed buildings around The Quay and The Square but the north part of the parish was a World War II airfield. It is in this latter area that there is a concentration of new housing and development was continuing at the time of the site visit. The River Hamble is tidal here and this has encouraged the construction of extensive marina facilities. An area of common survives to the south of the settlement and this is now public open space. 6.0 PLAN TYPE & DESCRIPTION (Maps 3, 4 & 5) Monastic house + agglomeration Hamble was not mentioned in the Domesday Book but there is an eighth-century topographical reference to the mouth of the River Hamble in Bede’s History of the English Church and People (Sherley-Price [trans], 1955: 234). The location of Hamble-le Rice, on a tongue of land at the south-east end of Hound CP, suggests that it was a part of that manor or estate in C11.

This statement is submitted to the Local Plan Inquiry by way further explanation of the issues affecting access to the shores of the River Hamble. Reference should be made to the plan below where the only six points of public access as of right to the River Hamble are identified. At the northernmost point of access there is about 100 metres of river frontage available. The next two going south are points overlooking the marshes but give no river access. The next point of access going south is to a part of a marina. Most residents and visitors only get to access the River on the west bank (through lack of knowledge of the above) at the next point going south because that is the village river frontage and ferry point.

  • Hedge End SDA Landscape Appraisal Summary
    North-North East of Hedge End Strategic Development Area SUMMARY LANDSCAPE APPRAISAL Introduction The South East Plan (published July 2009) refers to the allocation of a Strategic Development Area (SDA) in close proximity to Southampton ‘within the broad location to the North North/East of Hedge End’ (Policy SH2). The policy requires that areas of open land between the SDA and neighbouring settlements will be identified and maintained in order to prevent coalescence between the SDA and existing settlements and, additionally, to protect the separate identities of individual settlements. As part of the LDF work for Winchester District, it is expected that specific boundaries indicating these areas of ‘open land’ would be defined in DPDs (Development Plan Documents) and will include land which has a predominantly open and/or rural appearance. This landscape appraisal forms part of the wider evidence base that will be used to assess constraints and opportunities and influence the location of these boundaries. The SDA study area is broadly defined as the land between Botley, Hedge End, Horton Heath, Durley and Curdridge. The SDA crosses the district boundary between Eastleigh Borough Council and Winchester City Council. Since this landscape appraisal was started the South East Plan has been revoked by Government. The future of the SDA proposal is therefore uncertain, but the landscape appraisal has been concluded and published in order to be able to inform any future decisions about the location of an SDA or other major development in the area. Methodology The appraisal is a combination of field work/professional judgement resulting from a visual site assessment carried out in 2009/2010 and a desk top study based on GIS constraint maps and recognised documents, some with recommendations as listed below.
