  • Botesdale / Rickinghall 2011
    conservation area appraisal © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2009 Introduction The villages of Rickinghall Inferior, Rickinghall Superior and Botesdale were designated as a conservation area in 1973 jointly by East and West Suffolk County Councils and inherited by Mid Suffolk District Council at its inception in 1974. The Council has a duty to review its conservation area designations from time to time, and this appraisal examines Rickinghall and Botesdale under a number of different headings as set out in English Heritage’s new ‘Guidance on Conservation Area Appraisals’ (2006). As such it is a straightforward appraisal of Rickinghall and Botesdale’s built environment in conservation terms. This document is neither prescriptive nor overly descriptive, but more a demonstration of ‘quality of place’, sufficient for the briefing of the Planning Officer when assessing proposed works in the area. The photographs and maps are thus intended to contribute as much as the text itself. As the English Heritage guidelines point out, the appraisal is to be read as a general overview, rather than as a comprehensive listing, and the omission of any particular building, feature or space does not imply that it is of no interest in conservation terms. Text, photographs and map overlays by Patrick Taylor, Conservation Architect, Mid Suffolk District Council 2009. © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2009 Topographical Framework The villages of Rickinghall and Botesdale have become merged into a single settlement along about a mile of former main road six miles south-west of the Norfolk market town of Diss, in the northern part of Mid Suffolk District.

  • Neighbourhood Plan 2017-2036
    BOTESDALE & RICKINGHALL NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN 2017-2036 PEOPLE AND POPULATION REPORT November 2018 Prepared by Botesdale and Rickinghall Parish Councils Botesdale, Rickinghall Inferior & Rickinghall Superior Neighbourhood Plan People and Population Review This report considers some key characteristics of the population of the Neighbourhood Plan area including current trends1. An overview of key population data for the three Parishes can be found in the appendices2: Appendix 1 – Botesdale Parish Data Sheet Appendix 2 – Rickinghall Inferior Parish Data Sheet Appendix 3 – Rickinghall Superior Parish Data Sheet Acknowledgements Thanks to the following for information and data used in completing this report: • Natacha Bines, JSNA Programme Manager, Suffolk County Council • Mark Cobbold, Headteacher, St Botolph’s CEVC Primary • Ian Poole, Places4People Planning Consultancy Jo Broadbent 1 NB - due to the small number of residents in the neighbourhood plan area, small differences in statistics from Suffolk or England averages may not be statistically significant (i.e. may be due to chance), but statistical significance has not been tested. 2 Suffolk Observatory (2017) – downloaded from https://www.suffolkobservatory.info/population/reports/?geography_id=497928c23d364450be8a312624bc7 756&feature_id=E04009178 Summary of Key Points • The population of Botesdale, Rickinghall Inferior & Rickinghall Superior (BRR) was estimated to be 2,119 in 2015. • BRR has an older population than typical for England - BRR has far fewer 20-34 year olds than average for England (11.0% compared to 20.3%) and far more 55-89 year olds (39.5% compared to 27.3%). • Future population projections indicate that by 2035 the population of Mid Suffolk is expected to increase by 15%. Applying the age-specific Mid-Suffolk projections to BRR suggests that the numbers of those aged under 25 and those of working age will fall slightly, whilst numbers over 65s will increase by 454 (from 525 in 2011; an increase of 86%).
