SITES ALLOCATED FOR DEVELOPMENT IN THE PERIOD 2001 - 2006 IDENTIFIED IN POLICY HSG5

1. Land at Murreys Court

(1.85 ha)

Outline planning permission for the development of this site with 19 detached 4/5 bedroom houses lapsed in August 1990. Part of the site is currently used for grazing and the remainder forms part of the garden to the property known as Murreys Court. Murreys Court, a listed barn, several unlisted outbuildings and a cottage front Agates Lane. A high brick wall runs along the north end of the site’s eastern boundary. The site is covered by a Tree Preservation Order. Development of the site will be expected to reflect the form and character of the adjacent housing development in The Murreys. The brick wall along the Agates Lane frontage should be retained. The cottage should be retained; Murreys Court and the adjacent outbuildings could be converted to small residential units. The listed barn should be retained and re-used. New housing development should not cramp the setting of the Listed Building. The Council will wish to see that as many as possible of the preserved trees are retained and incorporated into the layout of the site. Access to the site will be required to be provided from The Murreys. The junction of The Murreys with Barnett Wood Lane may need improving.


Appendix 5 – Mole Valley Local Plan Policy S5 and Mole Valley Core Strategy Policy CS8

Mole Valley Local Plan policy S5:

POLICY S5 – ASHTEAD, BOOKHAM AND FETCHAM SHOPPING CENTRES

In Ashtead, Bookham and Fetcham shopping centres, as defined on the Proposals Map:

  1. proposals involving minor increases in shopping floorspace, in relation to the centre as a whole, will be permitted subject to other relevant considerations;
  2. proposals involving the change of use of a shop (Class A1) to use for professional and financial services (Class A2) and/or food and drinking including takeaways (Class A3) will be permitted provided that:
    1. they would not result in a concentration of such uses that would be harmful to the centre’s vitality and viability as a local shopping centre;
    2. they would not otherwise have an unacceptable impact on the character of the area;
    3. they would not result, individually or cumulatively with existing premises, in nuisance and/or disturbance to neighbouring residents or in conditions prejudicial to road safety;
  3. changes of use of shop units (whether or not they are used for retail purposes) to general office use (Class B1) will not be permitted.

Mole Valley Core Strategy policy CS8:

POLICY CS8 – ASHTEAD VILLAGE CENTRE

Measures to safeguard and consolidate the role and function of Ashtead’s retail centre will be encouraged.  Proposals which would harm the retail function of the centre, detract from its vitality and viability or create an imbalance in the hierarchy of centres in the District will not be permitted.


Appendix 6 - Where Can You Find More Information?

ACV Website

The ACV website at http://ashteadcommunityvision.org.uk/ contains all of the supporting evidence for this NDP in the form of a series of reports that describe the issues, evidence and conclusions. These are also referenced at Appendix 7. It also contains details of the publicity produced, the meetings and the other work that ACV has completed.

Mole Valley District Council

The Mole Valley Core Strategy Development Plan Document (DPD) is underpinned by a comprehensive Evidence Base. This includes research carried out by the Council and where necessary by consultants. Topics covered by the evidence base include, for example, Settlement Hierarchy, Housing Needs, Employment, Open Space, and Flooding. The full list of documents can be found on the Council’s website in the Local Development Framework section:

http://molevalley-consult.limehouse.co.uk/portal/cs/cs_-_adopted_oct_2009/core_strategy_-_adopted_october_2009_1?pointId=906692

There is also a Sustainability Appraisal Report for the Core Strategy which includes baseline information on a wide range of social, environmental and economic indicators. It also indicates where this source information can be found and web links where possible. The Scoping Reports for the Dorking Town Area Action Plan and Land Allocations DPD also includes characterisation information at the local and district level. (An Ashtead-specific Baseline Sustainability Report and Appendices can be found on the ACV website.)

The Council publishes an Authority/Annual Monitoring Report which sets out developments and trends information for the previous year. The reports can be viewed at:

http://www.molevalley.gov.uk/index.cfm?articleid=17342

Mole Valley and Me provides a whole range of information at the local level and can be accessed from the Council’s website home page. Using an address or postcode search, information on a locality can be seen including mapped information and links to the ONS small area profiles (Lower Super Output Areas). The mapped information includes local planning application history and a basic set of planning and environmental constraints. It can be accessed by:

http://maps.molevalley.gov.uk/myproperty.aspx?atTxtStreet=rh4+1sj&tab=0

Interactive Proposals Map: This map displays the planning policies from the Mole Valley Core Strategy and saved Local Plan at the time the Core Strategy was adopted (October 2009). It allows policy layers to be switched on and off and for the related policy text to be displayed. It does not however show those other constraints which are not referred to in the Plans. The map is accessible from the Local Development Framework web pages or:

http://www.planvu.co.uk/mvdc/mvdc.php

The Flood Zone extents on the map are at the date the Core Strategy was adopted. Current flood zones are viewable on the Environment Agency website (see below).

Surrey County Council

Surreyi the County Council’s comprehensive data resource provides access to the ONS small area local profiles. However it also provides access to data via a whole range of themes and topics and with much of the output data viewable as charts or on maps. This includes Indices of Multiple Deprivation 2010 data which ranks areas according to a range of deprivation factors (e.g. education, health etc.). The site also has information about the social and economic characteristics of a locality (based on consumer/market research data) from Experian’s “Mosaic” data base.

Surrey County Council Census Area summaries/profiles:  The County Council has produced a set of key population and household information from the Census. Whilst the summaries are not as comprehensive as the ONS small area profiles (accessed from “Mole Valley and Me” or “Surreyi”) they do have the advantage of being collated at the specific small settlement, village or town area and which may be more meaningful and more readily understood than the Lower Super Output Area summaries. The profiles are also available at Ward and Parish levels.

http://www.surreycc.gov.uk/environment-housing-and-planning/surrey-data-online/

National Data Sources

The Census information is still the main source of population and related information. There are two main sites to search for this information:

1) The Office for National Statistics (ONS) website – Neighbourhood Statistics

http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/

This site allows you to search for data on your locality at a range of area levels (e.g. ward, parish or output area) and by a range of themes. It includes Census data and other national data sets and surveys. Much of this information has been collated into area profiles or summaries for the smallest local area level (NB these profiles can also be accessed via the Council’s Mole Valley and Me site and Surreyi). Information can also be accessed by drilling down through the specific topic/theme data tables.

2) nomis – Official Labour Statistics (National Online Manpower Information Service)

https://www.nomisweb.co.uk/Default.asp

This website provides access to both census and employment related statistics either though standard reports or searches using a “wizard” facility. Data can be saved to spreadsheets for further analysis. The Council has a short information sheet to explain how to access this information.

Additionally:

Mid-Year Estimates of current population are available from ONS but only at local authority level (albeit test data at ward level was published for 2007).

Household and population projections to 2033 have been published by the government. The information is only available down to the local authority level.

Other Information Sources

The following is a shortlist of other sites which may be useful:

  1. Environment Agency website – see the interactive maps at the “What’s in Your Backyard” section:
    http://maps.environment-agency.gov.uk/wiyby/wiybyController?ep=maptopics&lang=_e
  2. NHS - Health profiles: http://www.apho.org.uk/default.aspx?QN=P_HEALTH_PROFILES
