  • Rural Settlement List 2014
    National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

  • An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
    An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.

  • Clun Unmuddying the Waters Project Activity Report - April 2019 to March 2020
    Clun Unmuddying the Waters Project Activity Report - April 2019 to March 2020 Bridge installed over Clunton Brook to replace livestock and vehicle crossing. Prepared by Alison Jones, Clun Catchment Officer April 2020 This Project is also supported by: Summary Clun Catchment Officer, Alison Jones, has continued to work with a number of farmers and landowners in the catchment, and progressed practical projects on several holdings. These all include a range of measures which contribute towards the reduction of adverse impacts on water quality and the conservation status of the River Clun SAC. The main focus for the year has been on two major projects; the installation of a bridge across Clunton Brook and the diversion of a highway drain at Broadward, adjacent to the Clun SAC. Further works have been completed on the holding adjacent to Clunton Brook, along with holdings in the sub catchments of the Kemp and the Redlake. With almost continuous rainfall since last September last year, ground conditions for working and access to sites were problematic. The Clun valley was almost constantly waterlogged, with much of it completely flooded for long periods, which delayed some works. Other works have been postponed, until ground conditions are more favourable. Below is a summary of the outcomes from this year’s project activity. Site Length of river New habitat creation Number of trees restoration (km) planted Bridge over Clunton Brook at 3.0 N/A N/A Lyndale Farm Diversion of highway drain to 3.5 N/A N/A wetland at Broadward Bridge To be completed (Shelderton Farm) Fencing & tree planting at N/A 0.75ha mixed 905 Stag’s Head broadleaf woodland Fencing of wetland at Stag’s N/A 0.2ha wetland 125 Head protected De-culverting at Stags Head 0.5 N/A N/A To be completed Fencing & riparian tree 2.7 0.45ha riparian 720 planting at Little Brampton woodland Farm A detailed report follows, with photographs to illustrate the range of work completed throughout the catchment.
