  • Shropshire Council: Central planning decisions – 23 May 2013

    The following planning decisions were made by Shropshire Council’s Central planning committee at its meeting on Thursday 23 May 2013 in Shrewsbury.

    Land at Hereford Road, Shrewsbury – 12/02498/OUT

    Outline Application for the erection of a Class A1 foodstore with associated car parking, servicing facilities and replacement of garage workshop to include means of access. 

    Decision:

    Refused – contrary to the Officer’s recommendations for the following reasons:

    There are existing difficulties with traffic movements for all highway users including pedestrians and cyclists in the immediate area around the site and its access on to a busy highway junction arising from the complexity of the local traffic arrangements.

    Notwithstanding the proposed alterations to the junction and localised changes to the highways, it is considered that such difficulties with traffic movements in the area of the site would be exacerbated further by the proposed development.

    Accordingly, the proposed development would fail to accord with the aims and requirements of adopted policies CS6 and CS7 of the Shropshire Core Strategy and Section 4 of the NPPF, as it would not be safe and accessible to all, and would not maximise opportunities for access by walking, cycling and public transport.

    The proposed development would potentially lead to a detrimental impact on the viability of existing nearby local centres and the community facilities associated with them. Accordingly, the proposal would fail to accord with the aims and requirements of adopted Policy CS8 of the Shropshire Core Strategy and Section 8 of the NPPF.

    The Gap Site, Raven Meadows Shrewsbury – 12/03258/FUL

    The erection of a public multi-storey car park consisting of 9 deck-levels; change of use of existing retail unit to provide pedestrian walkway; ancillary works (amended description). 

    Decision: Approved – in accordance with the Officer’s recommendations, subject to the inclusion of an additional condition requiring lighting of the town walls.

    The Gap Site, Raven Meadows Shrewsbury – 12/03259/LBC

    Alterations to a Grade II Listed Building required in connection with the erection of a multi storey car park (amended description). 

    Decision: Approved – in accordance with the officer’s recommendations.

    Proposed Residential Development, Land West of The Gables Nesscliffe – 12/04425/OUT

    Outline application (all matters reserved) for residential development to include affordable housing (resubmission).

    Decision:

    Refused – contrary to the Officer’s recommendations for the following reasons:

    The proposed access and access junction is inadequate and inappropriate, and this together with the likely proximity of proposed dwellings to existing properties would potentially have a significant detrimental impact on the residential amenity of occupiers of adjoining dwellings. This would be contrary to the aims and requirements of adopted Policy CS6 of the Shropshire Core Strategy and Section 7 of the NPPF.

    The application site is outside any settlement currently identified as suitable for accommodating new residential development and accordingly approval of the proposed scheme would be premature in advance of the Council (in consultation with the parish council) determining the preferred sites for residential development in the village through the SAMDev consultation process.

    Accordingly the proposal would fail to accord with the aims and requirements of adopted Policy CS5 of the Shropshire Core Strategy.

     Proposed Residential Development, Land off Washford Road, Shrewsbury – 12/04866/OUT

    Outline application for the erection of 6no. semi-detached dwellings to include Access. 

    Decision:  Approved, subject to S106 agreement to secure the provision of affordable housing – in accordance with the Officer’s recommendations.

    Plot 3 (part) Battlefield Road, Shrewsbury – 13/00392/FUL

    Erection of public house/restaurant; lodge hotel, hot food takeaway (with drivethrough facilities) and associated works. 

    Decision: Consideration deferred to the next meeting to enable further information received on the application to be appraised.

    Land Adjacent Oaklands, Holyhead Road, Montford Bridge – 13/00464/OUT

    Outline application for the erection of 5 no. detached dwellings and garages (to include access, layout and scale). 

    Decision:  Approved, subject to S106 agreement to secure an affordable housing contribution and the extension of the existing footpath to the site – in accordance with the Officer’s recommendations.

    8 The Fairways, Condover – 13/00901/FUL

    Erection of first floor extension over existing garage and single storey extension. 

    Decision: Approved – in accordance with the Officer’s recommendations.

    Retail Unit Adjacent Minsterley Garage, Station Road, Minsterley – 13/00987/COU

    Change of use from A1 (retail) to A5 (hot food takeaway).

    Decision:  Consideration deferred to the next meeting for clarification on whether planning permission 09/00156/COU granted on 21st May 2009 for retail use of the premises had been implemented.

  • Shropshire Council: Maesbury Metals day service opens showroom to sell handmade products

    People who attend a day service for adults with learning disabilities have opened a showroom to sell their products directly to the public.

    Maesbury Metals is a metal workshop near Oswestry where people with learning disabilities produce a variety of handmade products, such as garden gates and bird tables.

    The people who attend the centre are so proud of their work that rather than just displaying it, they want to sell it.

    So they decided to open a showroom, which will be open to the public, at the workshop unit on Maes y Clawdd Industrial Estate on the outskirts of Oswestry.

    As well as showing off their impressive work, the showroom is intended to be one of the ways the centre will attract revenue to mitigate the continuing financial pressures that councils are facing due to reduced Government funding.

    Peter Phillips, who attends Maesbury Metals and will run the showroom, said:

    “We want to change people’s perceptions of what adults with learning disabilities can do.  We think people will be amazed when they see what we make here, and we are so proud of what we can achieve we want to make sure people know about it.”

    A grand opening was held on Friday 24 May 2013, when North Shropshire MP Owen Paterson, the Government’s Environment Secretary, officially cut the ribbon.

    Councillor Tim Barker, Shropshire Council’s Cabinet member for adult social care, said:

    “The most impressive thing about this project is that it has come from the people who go to Maesbury Metals themselves.  The whole idea came from them – they have led it from the start and will run the showroom themselves.  I have been impressed at the obvious pride and enthusiasm felt for the unit and this new venture, and I wish it every success.”

    Council leader, Keith Barrow, who is councillor for Oswestry South, added:

    “Maesbury Metals is a fantastic facility which really improves the quality of life of the people who attend.  I would urge everyone to come along and visit the showroom to see the quality products that are on offer.”

    Maesbury Metals can be found at Enterprise Units 21 to 23, Maes y Clawdd Industrial Estate, just off the A483 at Oswestry.  The showroom is open from 9am to 3pm, Monday to Thursday.

  • Shropshire Council: Whitchurch Party in the Park fast approaching

    Whitchurch Party in the Park is taking place on Saturday 1 June 2013 from 1pm until 7pm in Jubilee Park, Whitchurch.

    This free community event – organised by Whitchurch Chamber of Trade, Whitchurch Town Council and Shropshire Council – will provide an afternoon of local entertainment and music for all ages, arts and crafts and plenty of local produce to eat and drink.

    Whitchurch Community Alcohol Partnership (WH-CAP) have provided funding for a 9ft climbing wall for attendees to use and will be on hand to offer advice and guidance on underage drinking to young people and parents alike.  WH-CAP is supporting the countywide Shrop-CAP campaign – an initiative to help tackle underage drinking in the county.

    Alongside WH-CAP will be a graffiti artist offering an opportunity to be imaginative and create an original piece of street art to be displayed in Whitchurch.

    Big Reds House will be hosting an arts and crafts marquee and launching the ‘Big Reds Big Picture’, funded by the Meres and Mosses Landscape Partnership.  Also in the marquee will be demonstrations from craft producers and cottage industries on how they make their products.

    Whitchurch Photographic Society will also be attending and provide a gallery celebrating the wealth of local independent traders.

    The annual party is hosting local musical talent on the bandstand, including Jigsmith, Top Bananas and an Adele tribute act.  Other performances will come from Whitchurch community groups, including cheerleading and zumba.

    For more information contact Nicki Young, community action officer on 01939 237429.

  • Shropshire Council: Boys Dancing Project funding success for 2013

    Shropshire Council’s community arts and festivals team has been part of a successful application by the West Midlands Boys Dance Alliance, in securing funding from the Arts Council West Midlands. 

    The funding goes towards the fourth year of the Boys Dancing Project, which develops and celebrates dance for boys and young men, providing them with the challenge, exhilaration, discipline and fun of making and sharing dance. 

    Young men and boys from across Shropshire will be performing together as part of the project at Acton Scott Historic Working Farm on Saturday 6 July 2013. 

    ‘Manitou’, a site-specific promenade dance event, exploring the concept of avoidance, has been choreographed by professional dance artists in partnership with the participating boys. 

    During the evening the audience will have the opportunity to move around the traditional 19th century farm and watch the action happen among them.  The event will culminate in a finale performance, showcasing the talent of male dancers from youth dance companies based in Birmingham, Shropshire, and Telford and Wrekin. 

    Tickets are being sold from the Theatre Severn Box Office, tel 01743 281281, Frankwell Quay, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, SY3 8FT.

  • Shropshire Council: Chinese delegation to visit Shrewsbury’s historic Flax Mill Maltings

    A delegation from China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) is to visit Shrewsbury’s historic Flax Mill Maltings next week to learn more about the history of the site, and see the world’s first iron-framed building.

    On Wednesday 29 May 2013 a party of 23 senior regional development experts from the NDRC – which studies and formulates economic and social development policies on behalf of the Chinese government – is visiting the West Midlands.

    They are visiting the region to mark the start of the third year of the European Union’s Chinese European Training on Regional Policy (CETREGIO) programme. The programme aims to offer Chinese regional experts a source of reference when setting their own regional development policies, to share examples of best practice, and to strengthen links between European and Chinese regions.

    After a visit to the new i54 business park near Wolverhampton, the Chinese delegates will head to Shrewsbury, where they will be given a tour of the Flax Mill Maltings site.

    The internationally-important Flax Mill Maltings site reflects a time when Britain led the way in engineering innovation.  It comprises seven listed buildings, including the Main Mill, which was built in 1797 and is the world’s first iron-framed building and the forerunner of the modern skyscraper.

    Work to restore and bring back into use the Main Mill, the Kiln, the Dye and Stove House and the Office and Stables is due to begin in September 2013, if funding bids to the Heritage Lottery Fund for £12.8m and European Regional Development Fund for £6.6m are successful.

    Mal Price, Shropshire Council’s Cabinet member for built environment, said:

    “I’m really pleased that this delegation from China will be visiting Shrewsbury next week to find out about the Flax Mill Maltings and the history of the site.  The Flax Mill Maltings is an internationally-important collection of buildings so it’s great that they are attracting interest from as far afield as China. We’re looking forward to showing our visitors around and telling them about our future plans for the site.”

    Alan Mosley, Chairman of the Friends of the Flax Mill Maltings, said:

    “We are delighted to be welcoming the Chinese guests for a very exciting visit.  From i54’s current cutting edge development they will be coming to our site which was a world leader 225 years ago.  They will learn how we will regenerate it to become an innovative centre for business, learning and community uses for the next 100 years.”

    About the Chinese European Training on Regional Policy (CETREGIO) programme

    Since 2010, over 100 Chinese decision makers from all 33 provincial level regions have been able to share experiences and to visit examples of best practice in more than 40 regions of 13 European Union member states, with experts from several EU member states visiting China.

    The information and training sessions have covered a wide range of regional development issues including: regional policy legislation; statistical information systems; innovation and clusters; territorial cohesion; urban-rural linkages; and sustainable urban development.

  • BBC Shropshire: Torn throat death prompts changes
    A Shropshire NHS Trust changes its policies after a man died because medical staff failed to notice that his throat had been torn during surgery.
  • Shropshire Council: Chance to learn about exhibits at new Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery

    Children and adults will get the chance to find out more about the items on display at the new Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery, when two special learning programmes begin in early 2014. 

    The schools programme will reflect the strengths of Shrewsbury’s history, with primary-aged children finding out how Charles Darwin’s insatiable curiosity for the natural world as a boy led him to publish his theory on the evolution of man as an adult. 

    As part of their ‘Darwin day’ they will study dinosaurs, undertake experiments and spend time with Shropshire Wildlife Trust.  Further sessions will be on offer to help pupils understand more about life during the Tudor period through studying the portraits and everyday objects in the museum. 

    They will also visit Shrewsbury Castle and Shropshire Archives, dress up in replica costume and take part in short cameo performances throughout the town.  Because the art gallery is such an important part of the new museum complex, there will ‘sketchbook’ days spent in the galleries, learning how to draw and create pieces of art, based on the collections and spaces within the newly-restored building. 

    Adults will have an equally exciting menu of practical workshops, short and long courses, lectures and study days to choose from, all based on the collections. 

    The choice of subjects will range from archaeology to geology, painting and drawing, local history, social history, fashion, textiles and contemporary art.  Afternoon tea lectures, gallery tours, lunchtime gallery talks and finds days run by the Portable Antiquities Scheme will ensure that there really is something on offer for everyone. 

    A series of gallery tours led by experienced members of Shropshire Council’s museum team will open the learning programme next year.  These free tours will give the public a chance to see the collections with an expert, and discover what further learning opportunities are planned for the following period. 

    Gwilym Butler, Shropshire Council’s Cabinet member for leisure, libraries and culture, said:

    “Work to complete the new Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery is continuing, but with the scaffolding down and the walls being plastered we’re now eagerly awaiting its opening, and the launch of these fantastic learning programmes.  This exciting series of interactive study packages will give people of all ages a great opportunity to discover more about the artefacts and specimens on display in the themed galleries.” 

    Volunteers will be playing an important role in the new learning programme at Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery, acting as meeting hosts for the school and adult sessions, and also offering drop-in themed activities for visiting families during the school holidays.  

    If you are interested in finding out more about volunteering opportunities, please contact sarah.griffiths@shropshire.gov.uk for further information.

  • BBC Shropshire: Crumbling spire's £150k repair bill
    More than £150,000 is needed to repair a crumbling Victorian church spire in Shropshire.
  • Shropshire Council: Future housing development and policing issues on the agenda at St Oswald and Llanymynech local meeting

    Local people are encouraged to attend the first meeting of the for the new financial year St Oswald and Llanymynech Local Joint Committee, to be held on 11 June at Llanymynech Village Hall, starting at 7pm..

    As well as having a dedicated budget to spend on local community projects, the LJC offers an opportunity for people to raise issues that matter to them and their area.

    The committee has an annual budget of £15,500 to spend on community projects within the area covering the parishes of Oswestry Rural, Llanyblodwel, Llanymynech and Pant, Melverley, Kinnerley and Knockin.

    The meeting will involve an update on the consultations over proposed sites for building developments – known as SAMDev (Site Allocations and Management of Development Plan). Locals are encouraged to get involved in consultations as they can help shape their communities and register objections or support for development proposals in the area.

    There will also be a presentation from the new Police Inspector for the area, Rik Klair, on changes involving West Mercia Police and an update on local crime related issues. Shropshire Fire and Rescue will also be outlining local initiatives currently being by run by their service.

    The new northern area commissioner at Shropshire Council, Tim Smith, will be talking about upcoming changes and his future role within the local authority. Alongside this there will be an update on all important issues for the area including the National Grid Consultation and the Connecting Shropshire broadband project.

    All meetings have a regular item on the agenda, allowing all members of the community opportunity to raise any questions or concerns that they may have for the area in which they live. This can be a very local item or may relate to specific questions around safety or crime for example.

    The meetings are overseen by a panel of councillors from local town and parish councils and Shropshire Council.

    Shropshire Councillor Arthur Walpole, Chairman of the St Oswald and Llanymynech LJC said:

    “These meetings provide a chance for people to tell councillors their views on local issues and services and to allow us to use our budget to benefit the local community. There are some key items suggested for our next meeting which will be of interest to this area, in particular we will receive an update on the next stages of SAMDev consultations around site allocations and will receive introductions from the new West Mercia Police Inspector covering the North of Shropshire; this will be a key opportunity for local people to raise any questions or concerns they have around these two very important issues. We will also receive an update on the National Grid Consultation and local action taking place around this. We hope that local people will come along to hear more. This is a great opportunity for the community to feed their comments to us as local members and parish councillors.”

     

    All local people from the area are welcome to attend.

    For more information about the committee meetings, or advice about how to apply for funding, please contact Corrie Davies, Shropshire Council’s community action officer, on 01691 677306.

  • Style.com: See You This Summer—That Is To Say, Tuesday

    Ralph Lauren's classic American flag sweater

  • Style.com: Kirsten Dunst Gets Personal In Wren’s New Capsule Collection

    Kirsten Dunst, in the lookbook for Wren's new Leith Clark capsule collection, shot by Garrett Hedlund

    Wren designer Melissa Coker first worked with power stylist and Lula editor in chief Leith Clark on several short fashion films for the label, starring the likes of Tavi Gevinson and Gia Coppola. At the time, they were designer and stylist. But then, the ideas started to bubble up. “We were on set and I was looking at the clothes, saying, ‘What if you did it like this?’ or ‘Maybe this should be like that,’” Clark recalled. “Eventually she was like, ‘Why don’t you just design a collection?’”

    Sometimes it is that easy. Clark took the reins, looked into her own closet for inspiration, and proposed easy pieces that she’d want to wear herself. She created prints from the work of three of her favorite illustrators (Mercedes Helnwein, Fanny Bostrom, and Jenny Mörtsell) on T-shirts, and asked Coker to whip up a rusty knit hat similar to one that a little girl is wearing in a painting hanging in her parents’ bathroom. Other pieces include schoolgirlish floral frocks with peter pan collars and nipped-in jackets with retro appeal.

    To keep the more-the-merrier theme going, Clark asked her close friend and client Kirsten Dunst to pose for the look book, which was shot by Dunst’s boyfriend Garrett Hedlund in Los Angeles. “Normally I style her so it was fun to flip roles and design the clothes and see how Kristen would wear them herself. It was a multi-faceted experience,” said Clark. She sent off the clothes and left Dunst and Hedlund to style and shoot themselves; the fruits of that labor debut here on Style.com. “There are some things that weren’t realized from the collection that are still lingering,” Clark hinted, “so stay tuned for a sequel.”

  • Style.com: All That Glitters In Cannes Is Carine Roitfeld’s Gold Fashion Show

    Karolina Kurkova wears Roberto Cavalli at the Ultimate Gold Fashion Show in CannesWhen a good cause (amfAR) and a major industry figure (Carine Roitfeld) come together, it’s a given that the fashion world will line up to lend a hand. And so it was at “The Ultimate Gold Collection” fashion show that Roitfeld staged at the nonprofit’s Cinema Against AIDS Gala at the Cannes Film Festival last night. The show included golden looks from Tom Ford and Thom Browne, Versace and Valentino, Marc Jacobs and Moncler, Dior, Comme des Garçons, Prada, Ralph Lauren, and Rick Owens—a group that becomes even more impressive given that they represent less than one third of the show’s participants. Add in the twenty-two additional jewelry and accessory brands, the glossy Gianvito Rossi heels…

    Suffice it to say, with LoveGold.com as one of the evening’s three title sponsors, the theme was pretty much preordained. Having soft-launched around award season earlier this year, LoveGold is being positioned as the creative, community online platform for the World Gold Council. LoveGold helped support the accessory creations, in addition to hosting the Livestream on its homepage.

    “For certain designers, the cost of gold is a barrier to entry,” said Sally Morrison, LoveGold’s director of jewelry in the U.S. “We were interested in creating a sort of incubator program where we offered gold loans for jewelers we were interested in to allow them to work in the medium and de-risk it for them. That coalesced very nicely with designers [Carine] wanted to put in the show.”
    A gold bangle by Aurora Lopez Mejia is put on backstage
    Jeweler Ana Khouri has worked with gold since launching her namesake jewelry line; for her, it’s just an extension of her sculpture background. Khouri represents the new generation of precious-metal designers, one whose mandate is as much about responsible gold sourcing as unconventional multi-finger rings. “I think gold is a universal language; it really connects people. And how amazing it is to get all this talent together with gold as the link,” said Khouri, before taking her architectural cuffs to be paired with a J.W. Anderson ruffled look.

    “There’s something about gold that’s just so timeless and elegant,” said Karlie Kloss, one of the many models who have crowded the Croisette in the days leading up to this evening’s event. For the show, she wore a filigreed necklace by the Indian designer Tarun Tahiliani in her hair. “I was aware of the fantastic workmanship possible with gold,” the designer said. “But it slid to a precious base for necklaces and jewelry, and on its own, it was considered more traditional. It slipped out of the fashion sensibility in a sense.”Karlie Kloss wears Tarun Tahiliani at the Ultimate Gold Fashion Show in Cannes
    Well, not anymore. Just witness the headdress of gold flowers designed by Khouri that Giovanna Battaglia wore on the red carpet—or, for that matter, the spiky Mohawk by Stephen Jones that Sarah Jessica Parker wore to the Met Ball. But even Roitfeld, who had three months to assemble and review all the designs, seemed surprised when such a gold-heavy show proved free of flash. “It all looks monotone; everything matches quite well altogether; and it’s not as tacky as you would imagine gold,” she said before the gala got underway, dressed in a Comme des Garçons top that exposed a ring of tanned midriff and a taupe ruched Rick Owens skirt. But maybe even flash wouldn’t have been entirely unwelcome. “Minimalism is a little finished,” she declared, hinting that the proof will be in her next issue of CR Fashion Book. Let the gold speculating begin.
