Strategic Flood Risk Assessment: Interim Supplement Incorporating Sequential Test
Strategic Flood Risk Assessment: Interim Supplement Incorporating Sequential Test For the East Hampshire District Local Plan Regulation 18 consultation December 2018 SFRA Interim Supplement 2018 Contents 1.0 Introduction 2.0 Background 3.0 Local Flood Risk Context 4.0 Planning Context 5.0 Site Requiring Sequential/Exception Test 6.0 Conclusion Appendix 1 – Sequential Testing Scoring on LAA sites and sites brought forward from the development plan Appendix 2 – Sequential Test Methodology and Scoring Criteria Appendix 3 – A list of sites with planning permission 1.0 Introduction 1.1 This document supplements the East Hampshire Level 1 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA), October 2018 and supports the East Hampshire Local Plan 2017–2036 (Regulation 18 consultation). The purpose of this document is to demonstrate that proposed site allocations in areas of flood risk are appropriate in the context of the Sequential Test which are required as part of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and its accompanying National Planning Practice Guidance (NPPG). However, as this is the first public consultation on the East Hampshire draft Local Plan, the Exception Test has not been carried out at this stage (Regulation 18) as allocations may be subject to change. Those allocations that may require an Exception Test prior to the Proposed Submission Local Plan 2017-2036 (Regulation 19) will be carried out at that time. 1.2 The East Hampshire Local Plan covers the area of East Hampshire outside of the South Downs National Park. This area is known as the Planning Authority area (the ‘Area’). The SFRA 2018 therefore covers the Planning Authority area only but during its preparation neighbouring authorities were consulted to address any cross boundary flood issues to inform the SFRA.

Re-Organisation Proposal for the Benefice of Bentworth, Lasham, Medstead and Shalden (BLMS)
Re-organisation proposal for the Benefice of Bentworth, Lasham, Medstead and Shalden (BLMS) Due to financial difficulties in the Diocese of Winchester, plans are being considered at the moment for a re-organisation of the North Hampshire Parish Boundaries, of which the Benefice of Bentworth, Lasham, Medstead and Shalden, within the Deanery of Alton, is a part. If agreed upon, this would make the saving of one stipendiary post (vicar), as the individual BLMS parishes will be merged with already existing parishes. The proposal is that the parishes of Bentworth, Lasham and Shalden will merge with the Parish of the Resurrection in Alton and the parish of Medstead with the Parish of the Good Shepherd, Four Marks. This is part of the consultation process which will be ongoing in the next months. There is an information pack issued by the Diocese of Winchester which gives more information about the proposals for the Deanery of Alton. Please read those additional papers which should be on this web site. An important aspect of how churches are managed is called governance. The governance options for the present BLMS churches are that, when joining the parish in Alton or Four Marks respectively, they could: a) Remain as Parish Churches b) Become individual ‘Chapels of Ease’ c) Convert to ‘Festival Churches.’ In remaining a Parish Church, it retains its PCC; its burial, baptism and wedding rights and the obligation to pay its parish share (known here as the CMF). Description of ‘Chapel of Ease’ A chapel-of-ease can have any number of services (a minimum of 6 is recommended), but does not normally (traditionally) have burial, baptism or wedding rights, though the Bishop could licence it for such.

The Distribution of the Romano-British Population in The
PAPERS AND PROCEEDINGS 119 THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE ROMANO - BRITISH POPULATION IN THE BASINGSTOKE AREA. By SHIMON APPLEBAUM, BXITT., D.PHIL. HE district round Basingstoke offers itself as the subject for a study of Romano-British . population development and. Tdistribution because Basingstoke Museum contains a singu larly complete collection of finds made in this area over a long period of years, and preserved by Mr. G. W. Willis. A number of the finds made are recorded by him and J. R. Ellaway in the Proceedings of the Hampshire Field Club (Vol. XV, 245 ff.). The known sites in the district were considerably multiplied by the field-work of S. E. Winbolt, who recorded them in the Proceedings of the same Society.1 I must express my indebtedness to Mr. G. W. Willis, F.S.A., Hon. Curator of Basingstoke Museum, for his courtesy and assist ance in affording access to the collection for the purposes of this study, which is part of a broader work on the Romano-British rural system.2 The area from which the bulk of the collection comes is limited on the north by the edge of the London Clay between Kingsclere and Odiham ; its east boundary is approximately that, of the east limit of the Eastern Hampshire High Chalk Region' southward to Alton. The south boundary crosses that region through Wilvelrod, Brown Candover and Micheldever, with outlying sites to the south at Micheldever Wood and Lanham Down (between Bighton and Wield). The western limit, equally arbitrary, falls along the line from Micheldever through Overton to Kingsclere.

Larger Sites: Objection to Chawton Park Farm: Four Marks/Medstead Support for Bentley Northbrook Park: Whitehill/Bordon
11/15/2019 Mail - Woodgate, Jenny - Outlook Larger sites: Objection to Chawton Park Farm: Four Marks/Medstead Support for Bentley Northbrook Park: Whitehill/Bordon Mon 14/10/2019 16:50 To: EHDC - Local Plan <[email protected]> The larger sites already proposed for Whitehill/Bordon and Bentley/Northbrook Park remain the right sites for larger developments. I support both proposals. They allow sustainable infrastructure and limit impact on others. In particular each allows access in a workable way to major roads. The confluence or roads the Surrey side of the border is an issue for these 2 sites but funds from the development can be used substantially to ameliorate those problems. The Four Marks/ Medstead sites all need large further expenditure on the clogged and destructive impact of the A31 at Four Marks and I object to these sites. The need for a Four Marks bypass has been accepted for decades but no one has any current plans to address this. For Chawton Park Farm large highway expenditure is needed to make Northfield Lane and the A 31 /A32 junction roundabout safe and functionable. I object to this proposal. On all these sites if funding was provided that detracts from the funds needed to make any material contribution to the main problem the Surrey side of the border, principally on the Farnham bypass. There are 2 additional points since earlier consultation on the unsuitability of the Chawton Park Farm larger site. Firstly, Beech Neighbourhood Plan has been subject to Regulation 16 consultation ending in September. Section 5.1 specifies the need to prevent coalescence of Medstead, Wivelrod and Beech and ironically shows the wooded area Ackender Wood and Bush Leaze Wood, which run to the Parish Boundary with Chawton and the western boundary of the proposed larger site for Chawton Park Farm.

Archaeology in Hampshire
Archaeology in Hampshire Annual Report 2005 BASINGSTOKE AND DEANE Basingstoke Skippett’s House (SU 64012 50613) (Site UID: 2143) Geophysical survey A magnetic survey of the land surrounding Skippett’s House in Basingstoke was done by CGMS. Initial concerns over the quality of data due to recent tree felling work were not realized and several linear responses were identified that may be of archaeological origin. Other anamolies were identified, but remain ambiguous. Deane Banjo Enclosure, Oakley Park (SU 55840 49370) (Site UID: 36887) Fieldwalking Systematic collection by Basingstoke Archaeology and History Society recovered burnt flints and Iron Age pottery sherds. East Woodhay Hayes (SU 40171 62312) (Site UID: 56669) Building survey The survey was carried out by CKC Archaeology. The core of this building appears to have been a lobby-entry house with a queen post roof. Such a house would be typical of the 17th century. All that remains from this phase is the central stack, the attached dog-leg staircase and some fragments of the original roof. Farleigh Wallop Farleigh Wallop (SU 61050 47670) (Site UID: 36367) Fieldwalking The survey was carried out by Basingstoke Archaeological and Historical Society. Finds from the walk mainly comprised pieces of worked flint, including one 'D-shaped' scraper, suggesting a Neolithic presence. Hannington Tidgrove Warren Farm (SU 51707 54255) (Site UID: 57174) Geophysical survey The survey by Archaeological Prospection Services was successful in locating a number of features associated with the Romano-British settlement at Tidgrove Warren Farm. The results show the extent and nature of the settlement as a whole, including the outer and inner enclosures, and associated structural remains, plus evidence of agricultural activity.

The minutes of the meeting held on the 10th June 2020, previously circulated were agreed as a true record, proposed by Cllr Clark and second by Cllr Mike (Jo) Smith and would be signed by the Chairman at a later date. ii. No Matters Arising. 20.42 CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Cllr Pullen reported a very quiet month again but two appeals have been lodged, the first is as expected, the proposed traveller plots on Abbey Road. Although technically within the parish of Bentworth Medstead Parish Council get to comment officially as the site is less than a quarter of a mile from our boundary. This will be an informal hearing, details of which are unknown to date. The second is against the refusal of East Hampshire District Council (EHDC) to allow an extra dwelling to be built next to a house in Abbey Road. This was refused last year by EHDC, taken to appeal which was rejected and then submitted again very quickly by EHDC, with the latest appeal being lodged this month, this one will be by written representation.
