The North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy 2011-2031 includes significant proposals such as the Rushden East sustainable urban extension and a new garden community at Tresham in the north of the district. It seeks to add local value through its policies which reflect the distinctive characteristics and attractiveness of the area. The plan supports the growth and diversification of business opportunities across the district, recognising the need to ensure its market towns remain as thriving and competitive centres by providing a range of services and facilities for their local communities as well as encouraging town centre regeneration schemes to encourage future redevelopment opportunities. As the growth town for the area, Rushden will provide the majority of new housing and employment development during the plan period. This will help deliver future housing and employment needs, supported by infrastructure and services including transport, retail and leisure, to help ensure a sustainable, high quality environment. Much of the district is rural, interspersed with villages and market towns. It is bisected in a north/ south direction by the Nene Valley, a focus for blue and green infrastructure that provides a significant natural asset which enhances the district The Plan aims to ensure those rural communities have the ability to meet local needs, as well as providing opportunities to improve local connections, create local employment prospects and develop the visitor offer. To meet the needs of the wider community, the plan seeks to provide a range of housing types including for the older population who may be looking quality housing for downsizing or meeting a specialist need through care and extra care provision. The plan recognises the need to provide for aspirational choice and the variety of demand and need across the district, from predominantly smaller properties in the rural north to larger properties in the south. It also considers those who wish to be more proactive in designing the type of home they wish for through exciting opportunities such as custom build. This plan also recognises the importance of the area’s natural and built assets and includes a number of policies that seek to enhance and protect its distinctive green spaces as well as meeting the challenge of sensitively designed development. In drafting this plan, we have engaged with many different organisations and we are now asking for your views on what the plan says and whether you think it needs to include any further proposals for addressing the area’s future needs. East Northamptonshire Council Page 3 of 30 Local Plan Part 2: Tracked changes pre-submission draft (autumn 2019) 1.0 Introduction Layout of the Local Plan Part 2 1.1 The Local Plan Part 2 is a statutory development plan document covering the district of East Northamptonshire. While this Plan is self-contained, it should be read in conjunction with the North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy 2011-2031 (the Local Plan Part 1), Neighbourhood Plans and national policies. This document contains appropriate planning policies for the growth and regeneration of the district up to 2031. It is proposed that this will present a vision of the eastern district of the county through the objectives and policies which will set out what and how much development should take place and the sites and strategies required to meet this target growth. 1.2 The Plan consists of the following key elements: • Sections 1.0-3.0 – Introduction, Area Portrait, and Vision and Outcomes – sets the scene in terms of the evidence base and the context of higher level national or Joint Core Strategy policies; outlines key reasons and factors that entail the need for suitable local policies; and sets out Plan-level Vision and Outcomes to be achieved; • Section 4.0 – Spatial Development Strategy – provides additional strategic and spatial policy direction for the district, over and above the overarching spatial policy framework set out in the Joint Core Strategy; • Sections 5.0-6.0 – Natural and Social Capital – sets out additional policies for the protection and enhancement of natural, heritage, cultural and community assets; • Sections 7.0-9.0 – Economy and Housing – sets out proactive policies and proposals for delivering economic growth and the housing requirements for the remainder of the Plan period (to 2031); • Section 10.0 – Town Strategies – sets out detailed policies and proposals for the re- imagination of existing urban areas; • Section 11.0 – Monitoring and Implementation – each policy is supported by relevant indicators and targets, which will be reviewed annually through the North Northamptonshire Authorities’ Monitoring Report (AMR); • Appendices – glossary and other supporting evidence and information for the Plan. 1.3 The Plan includes the following details of policy guidance: Policy type(s) Relevant section heading(s) Spatial Development Strategy; Natural Capital; Spatial policies Town Strategies Spatial Development Strategy; Natural Capital; Development management policies Social Capital; Housing Delivery Site specific policies Economic Prosperity Economic Prosperity; Housing Delivery; Town Development land allocations Strategies East Northamptonshire Council Page 4 of 30 Local Plan Part 2: Tracked changes pre-submission draft (autumn 2019) 1.4 Footnotes are used to provide references to related assessments, studies and policy documents, in order to show how policies have developed from an evidence base and are in accordance with other relevant policies and strategies. Policies Map 1.5 Under the legislation (Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004) and associated regulations, the Policies Map is classified as a separate document to the Local Plan Part 2. The Adopted Policies Map shows areas of protection e.g. statutory land use designations, areas at risk of flooding and allocated sites for specific land uses and development proposals.

  • An Archaeological Resource Assessment of the Neolithic and Bronze Age in Northamptonshire
    East Midlands Archaeological Research Framework: Resource Assessment of Neolithic and Early Bronze Age Northamptonshire An Archaeological Resource Assessment of the Neolithic and Bronze Age in Northamptonshire Andy Chapman Note: For copyright reasons the figures are currently omitted from the web version of this paper. It is hoped to include them in future versions. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The intention behind the publication in 1989 of "Midlands Prehistory: Some recent and current researches into the prehistory of central England", was to show that the Midlands was "far from the prehistoric wilderness that was once envisaged" (Gibson 1989, 3). This collection of papers provided a demonstration of how the combined efforts of aerial photography, fieldwalking and rescue archaeology had brought life to a "desert" previously populated in the Neolithic and Bronze Age only by isolated oases of activity, such as the occasional round barrow. 1.2 The aim of this paper is to briefly review both the current state of knowledge for Neolithic and Bronze Age Northamptonshire, and the limitations and potential of the available evidence. There is no attempt to provide a synthesis of this data, although this paper does provide a first step on the approach to such a synthesis. A list of key sites and a bibliography are provided (Sites in bold type in the main text are those appearing in the list of key sites, which includes bibliographic details). 2. GEOGRAPHY AND SOILS 2.1 The county boundaries of Northamptonshire encompass the river Nene and its watershed, so the county can be considered to represent a single major geographical zone.

  • Executive Summary Background The
    Market Towns Initiative – Oundle Healthcheck Report 2007 Executive summary Background The Oundle Healthcheck Report is the result of the Oundle Healthcheck project funded by East Northamptonshire Council (ENC) and the Welland Sub Regional Strategic Partnership (SSP) in 2005. The project was led by East Northamptonshire Council and was undertaken in line with the Healthcheck methodology set out in the Countryside Agency’s Market Towns Initiative. An important aspect of the initiative is that it aims to involve the local community in making decisions and taking responsibility for the future of their town. The Healthcheck Process The Healthcheck process was undertaken by the Market Towns Project Officer from East Northamptonshire Council. The work was supported by the Oundle Partnership and the community of Oundle and its hinterland. The Oundle Partnership was established as a result of an open evening in November 2005. Following this a gathering took place in February 2006, which resulted in setting up the Oundle Partnership Steering Group. The main objective of the Steering Group is to guide the healthcheck process and complete the second phase by developing a detailed action plan and putting it into action. The Healthcheck process has taken a snapshot of the town and its surrounding area, but also has looked at past pieces of work and the wider context such as local and regional policies. The snapshot incorporates a comprehensive appraisal of the town’s strengths and weaknesses, highlighting the key things local people would like to preserve and see improved. The document also includes information in relation to the threats to Oundle, as part of the Milton Keynes South Midlands growth agenda.
