Licence No: AL 100014723 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This strategic document has been undertaken to present as part of the submitted evidence illustrating that Bromsgrove District Council’s heritage assessments remain unsound and contrary to case-law as set out in South Bucks District Council v Porter (No. 2) [2004] UKHL 33; [2004] 1 WLR 195, which stated that “The reasons for a decision must be intelligible and they must be adequate. They must enable the reader to understand why the matter was decided as it was and what conclusions were reached on the “principal important controversial issues”, disclosing how any issue of law or fact was resolved [and that] ….The reasoning must not give rise to a substantial doubt as to whether the decision-maker erred in law, for example by misunderstanding some relevant policy or some other important matter or by failing to reach a rational decision on relevant grounds”. The assessment also recognises the requirement of primary legislation to have special regard to the desirability of preserving a listed building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses, and that, as confirmed in the South Lakeland decision, this creates a strong presumption to refuse planning permission (which can be reasonably interpreted in this context as a site allocation) which would fail to preserve such. It also presents an alternative approach to that undertaken by the Council, and one which complies with the requirements for determining strategic site allocations set out within the NPPF and Historic England’s guidance. It utilises elements of Environmental Impact Assessments, together with identifying and mapping areas of sensitivity for each identified heritage asset. In order to undertake a balanced assessment, rather than identifying two separate development areas, the two sites have been combined to provide a considered approach of the setting of heritage assets, rather than adopting an approach dictated by separate indicative proposed site boundaries. The assessment also recognises that extant national policy and guidance, together with case-law, has changed considerably since the initial heritage assessments and masterplanning was undertaken between 2010 and 2012. The introduction of the NPPF, together with the removal of PPS5, and the updating of Historic England guidance, have all had significant impact on how heritage is to be considered within the planning environment, in particular through the identification of more specific levels of harm than previously required, and with regard to designated heritage assets, the requirement to balance any harm against public benefit. The meaning and effect of these duties have been considered by the courts in recent cases, including the Court of Appeal decision in relation to Barnwell Manor Wind Energy Ltd v East Northamptonshire District Council [2014] EWCA civ 137, where The Court agreed with the High Court’s judgment that Parliament’s intention in enacting Section 66(1) was that decision-makers should give “considerable importance and weight” to the desirability of preserving the setting of listed buildings. Although there are several Grade II listed buildings surrounding the site, many of these are sufficiently removed as to negate any harm – however, one Grade II listed building lies adjacent to part of Area 4, whilst a further is considered due to its nature as a farm, within a wider agricultural setting. There are also several non-designated heritage assets, a Grade II* Registered Park & Garden, a conservation area, and one Grade I listed building that may be affected by the allocation of a site. Buildings contained within the Registered Park & Garden are considered throughout the report as part of the Registered Park & Garden, and/or as part of the conservation area. The assessment has identified areas where the impact arising from proposed allocation across the whole of the site will be lowest, taking in to account the relative importance and sensitivity of each asset identified, and as such identifies land which should be considered for allocation. It should be recognised that, in reading this assessment, the areas of sensitivity and suggested densities identified are not fixed, and do not suggest definitive lines of development, but that the transition areas should be recognised and utilised. In summary, this document concludes that there are areas of land across Area 4 and Area 5 which would result in different cumulative impacts on designated heritage assets if put forward as an allocation than those identified in Bromsgrove District Council’s assessments, in particular when considering the legal requirement for consideration of the setting of listed buildings. Figure 1: The Site 1 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.2 THE SITE Although there are two specific sites being examined within this assessment (Foxlydiate (Area 4 in BDC’s evidence base) and Brockhill West (Area 5), (Figs 1-3)), this report combines both sites, and considers them as one area of land (hereafter referred to as ‘the site’). This will enable an equal and balanced assessment of potential harm on surrounding heritage assets arising from an allocation of land within the two proposed allocation sites. The purpose of the report is to assess the relative sensitivity of identified heritage assets, and their individual and cumulative capacity to withstand development within their setting, and to form a sound evidence-base relating to impacts on heritage, informing site allocations1 for Redditch Borough. This method of assessment therefore complies with the advice set out in Historic England guidance2 and the requirements contained within the NPPF3. The site consists of land forming the western edge of the existing settlement boundary of Redditch, with land falling across the boundary of Redditch Borough and Bromsgrove District (Figs 1-3). All of the site is currently in agricultural use, ranging between crops and livestock. The topography of the area is generally rolling, and the surrounding landscape is agricultural land, with historic hedges lining lanes and holloways, and with various hedge- trees, forming field boundaries, with underlying lowland marl or clay. The surrounding land-use is primarily agricultural in nature, with patches of woodland, and historic hedges and trees lining lanes. The settlement of Redditch lies to the east and south-east, and the site in general acts as a transition area between the existing settlement boundary and the rural aspect of the wider landscape to the north and west. A variety of streams and brooks are evident throughout the area, and these have some historic significance, in particular in their role in supporting the mills found within the surrounding landscape, and their contribution to how the surrounding landscape has evolved. Figure 2 and 3: The site, showing the two areas proposed for allocation with Parish and Local Authority boundaries and contours. The Historic Environment Record (HER) identifies a variety of non-designated heritage assets, from ridge and furrow through to pre-parliamentary and parliamentary enclosures, and buildings of local interest, and these have been considered, in particular in how they may contribute to the significance of designated heritage assets. Throughout this assessment, in particular through the settings assessment, reference should be made to the appendices, in particular Appendices F (Settings Assessments), G & H (views from the designated heritage assets). Other documents should also be referred to, including the Worcestershire Historic Environment Character Zone documents produced as part of the initial work undertaken as part of the Local Development Framework. 1 The assumption of this report is that there is a sound evidence-base for the need for c.2800 dwellings within the Worcestershire Housing strategy document. 2 2 The Historic Environment in Local Plans: Historic Environment Good Practice Guide in Planning –Note 1. 3 NPPF: paragraph 157. 2.0 LEGISLATIVE AND POLICY FRAMEWORK 2.1 LEGISLATION, PLANNING POLICY AND GUIDANCE –NATIONAL Legislation regarding buildings and areas of special architectural and historic environment. This is the guidance to which local authorities need to refer when Communal value: which derives from the meanings of a place for the people interest is contained within the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation setting out a strategy in their Local Plans for the conservation and enjoyment of the who relate to it, or for whom it figures in their collective experience or Areas) Act 1990.

This in turn gives us a sense of wellbeing; we are less likely to be depressed in the summer, and more likely to stay healthy. We can go outside more, and exercising becomes easier. We can enjoy the many-coloured flowers of summer and often enjoy holidays closer to home than we would contemplate in the dark days of winter. For parents it is a time of researching activities for children during the long school holiday, and often a chance for a family holiday to somewhere with a beach. Grandparents may be gearing up for additional childminding duties, or planning for a break after their charges have returned to school at the beginning of September. Summer is a time for holiday romances, holiday reads, activity holidays or blobbing in the beach. There are summer camps, summer festivals and summer concerts. Sometimes the farmers are praying for rain while ice cream sellers are praying the sun, and sometimes the other way around. The smell of barbeques and suntan lotion assails the nostrils, shorts are unpacked from the bottom of the drawer and leather seats become to hot to sit on whilst wearing them. Summer is a time for making new plans for the autumn, a time when people are more likely to move house, and it may be a time to think about what groups, societies, clubs, classes, activities and groups to go to when everything gets started again for the autumn.

  • Lanehouse Farm: Setting of Heritage Assets Assessment
    1 | P a g e Lanehouse Farm Setting of Heritage Assets Assessment Introduction 1.1 A number of sites have been identified around the boundary of Redditch Borough in Bromsgrove District as possible locations for future residential development. This paper looks at the impact of the development of Area 4 (identified in the Housing Growth Development Study 2013 prepared jointly by Bromsgrove District Council and Redditch Borough Council) on Lane House Farm, a Grade II listed building (See Map 1). Description of Lanehouse Farm 1.2 Lanehouse Farmhouse is a multi-phase farmhouse with a number of outbuildings, most of which have been converted to residential units (See Photos 1, 2 & 3). The farmhouse lies to the southwest of Curr Lane directly opposite Area 4 which lies to the northeast. 1.3 Lanehouse Farm falls outside the boundary of Area 4, but is located opposite it on Curr Lane. Parts of Site 4 are assessed to be falling within the setting of this listed building. Heritage legislation and guidance 2.1 In assessing whether or not Area 4 should be considered for development, regard must be had to the following legislation, policy and guidance relating to the consideration of developments affecting the setting of Heritage assets. 2.2 Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 In particular Section 66, which states that in considering whether to grant planning permission for development which affects a listed building or its setting, the Local Planning Authority shall have special regard to the desirability of preserving the building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possess.

    “Tardebigge Church on a sunny Spring day ” Photo by Jane Hall Email:[email protected]. June 2018 - £1 www.tardebiggechurch.org.uk 1 2 From Richard, the Team Rector We can underestimate the effect of the power of God to influence us in our daily lives, and the role that the Almighty God played in the establishment of the foundational truths upon which our faith is based. Yet so much of that influence is subtle, implicit, and not easy to directly discern, as God the Holy Spirit gently blows us in our humanity to express something of His divinity. Indeed, for us today, there may well already be more of God in our lives than we realise. Why then do we not discern that active presence of God? This is either because we are not looking for Him, or because we do not believe that we should credit anything to God unless we can be utterly certain that what has happened could not come from any other means, as if God only works independently of His world, and our humanity. God, however, is not a God of the gaps in our understanding, but is, for the believer, our Lord and Saviour, the One for whom we exist, who will never leave us or forsake us. The Anglican year sees June commence the long run of Sundays after Trinity. This is the time of year when we consider the pastoral and evangelistic mission of the Church in the light of the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, and the revelation of God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, which have been celebrated on the last two Sundays of May.

  • Setting of Heritage Assets Assessment
    Bromsgrove District Council Conservation Hewell Grange Estate Setting of HeritageAssetsAssessment 2013 Hewell Grange Estate Setting of Heritage Assets Assessment 2013 Page | 1 Introduction 1.1 A number of sites have been identified around the boundary of Redditch Borough in Bromsgrove District as possible locations for future residential development. This paper looks at a site (identified as Area 5 in the Housing Growth Development Study 2013 prepared jointly by Bromsgrove District Council and Redditch Borough Council) and subsequently referred to below as ‘The Area’, which is located immediately to the north west of the Brockhill Estate, Redditch, a 1980/90s housing development on the edge of Redditch but also immediately south/south east of the Hewell Estate, a Conservation Area (CA) and a Grade II* Registered Park and Garden (RPG)1. They can also be referred to as Designated Heritage Assets (HAs). (See Map 1) 1.2 Part of the western boundary of the RPG and the Water Tower are visible from the northern part of Area 4. The A448 dual carriageway forms a very prominent, modern barrier between the HAs at Hewell and has partially severed the connection between the HAs and their wider setting in this area. Although the development of Area 4 will harm this wider setting, due to the A448, the impact is not considered to be as great as the harm that would caused to the setting of the HAs by the development of Area 5. 1.3 Historically Hewell Grange comprised a typical country estate with a mansion and associated buildings located centrally in a designed landscape, pleasure grounds and parkland.
