Town_Parish_Council No Neighbourhood_Name Audlem Neighbourhood_Area_Description Audlem is a large village located at the very southern point of Cheshire East Unitary Authority, bordering onto Shropshire to the south and west and close to Staffordshire to the east. It had a population of 1991 in the 2011 census. The village, mentioned in the Domesday Book as Aldelime and granted a market charter in 1295, is dominated by the 13th century St James’ Church in the village centre. It is a predominantly agricultural area, surrounded by actively worked farms supported by a number of local agricultural contractor businesses. The village is on the Shropshire Union Canal which encourages tourism in the form of canal boat users and many other visitors to the Wharf, the thriving local shops and pleasant walks in the neighbourhood. Full details of the landscape may be found in the Village Design Statement and Landscape Assessment http://audlempc.audlem.org/doc/D43106.pdf. There is a local School, a Public Hall, three Churches and many active community groups providing both support and community interest groups for all ages. Neighbourhood_Area_Appropriate Audlem is a well defined, historic village which includes three Conservation areas – the centre of the village, Salford to the east and Cox Bank, a hamlet slightly to the south of the village centre. The village is identified as a Local Service Centre in the Cheshire East Council Local Plan and, as such has specific housing numbers required over the next 20 years. Residents have already produced two Parish Plans, firstly in 2005 and again in 2010. In addition, a Village Design Statement and Landscape Character Assessment, which focused on the area within the Audlem Parish boundary, was produced in 2008 and revised in December 2011. These documents will help inform the production of a Neighbourhood Plan. A Parish Newsletter and a website, Audlem OnLine, already exist which will facilitate communication. In view of the relative ‘independence’ of Audlem from its neighbours in these associated activities we believe that it is appropriate to focus on the area within the Audlem Parish boundary as outlined on the map (attached) Intention_Development_Plan yes Broomhall Coole Pilate Hatherton Audlem Neighbourhood Area Hankelow Hunsterson Newhall Audlem Buerton Dodcott cum Wilkesley 0 320 640 1,280 1,920 2,560 ¯ Meters Submitted Neighbourhood Area © Crown copyright and database rights 2013.
