Area A1

Figure 6

The whole of Broad Area 6 lies within the Warfield Open Clay Farmlands landscape character area (CL5) which is classified as of moderate to high landscape sensitivity. In January 2010 the Broad Areaswas initially divided into two types of landscape: the open farmed landscape within Area A; and the open settled northern edge of Newell Green and Warfield Street within area B. This informed the ’Profiles of Broad Areas’ prepared by Bracknell Forest in February 2010.

Area 6A: Open farmed landscape

Initial landscape analysis: significant landscape constraints

1. Landscape character area: Warfield Open Clay Farmlands (CL5).2. Landscape value: No designations. Setting of Northern Villages Character Area A Newell

Green and Character Area B1 Warfield Street (BFCAA)3. General landscape sensitivity: moderate to high. Key features found in the areas are the

pasture, undulating landscape, scattered woodland and hedgerow trees and goodcondition of the landscape

Detailed assessment

Area 6.A1 Scotlands Farm

Area 6.A1 includes the farmland around Scotlands Farm, north of The Cut. It is predominantly medium sized open fields with parkland trees and almost no internal hedgerows. The perimeter boundaries are partially enclosed by trees and hedgerows.

Key landscape characteristics which would be vulnerable to development are: • Important part of the northern rural setting to Newell Green (BFCAA)• Shares landscape features and intervisibility with the adjoining Green Belt landscape• The Cut and its tree cover form a natural northern containment to Newell Green. The

point at which The Cut crosses Forest Road in the west and Osbourne Lane in the northare good gateway features reinforcing the character of Newell Green

• Scattered parkland trees in an open landscape• Contained by hedgerows and tree lines

Key visual features and views which would be vulnerable to development are: • Partial views through hedgerows and tree lines from Newell Green and surrounding roads

Other aspects to be taken into consideration • Little internal hedgerows and woodland cover• Poorer landscape condition than is typical of CL5• Generous landscape corridor of The Cut to be set aside as Green Infrastructure

Scope for visual mitigation • Although it is recognised that the extensive tree and understorey cover will screen

development, the introduction of built form would erode the landscape value of this areaand significantly affect the landscape character

• Screen planting, landmodelling and other forms of screening would result in adversechanges to the character and of views across this area.

Recommendations

The area plays an important role as a rural setting to Newell Green and lies beyond a natural boundary to development formed by The Cut. Development on this area would spread the influence of Bracknell to the detriment of character area CL5 and the wider open countryside of which the Green Belt is an important part. The landscape capacity is therefore low.



Area 6:A2 Fields north of Warfield Street

Area 6.A2 includes two separate fields to the north of Warfield Street. Both are medium sized pasture enclosed by strong tree and hedgerows, abutting built form in the settlement.

Key landscape characteristics which would be vulnerable to development are: • Contribution to the northern rural setting of Warfield Street (BFCAA)• The Cut, the northern boundary of Magnolia House and the Bullbrook form a natural

northern containment to Warfield Street• Open pasture landscape in good condition• Well contained by hedgerows and tree lines

Key visual features and views which would be vulnerable to development are: • Views from Newhurst Gardens and Gibbins Lane

Other aspects to be taken into consideration • The areas do not lie beyond the natural containment boundaries to the village• Development should not erode the settlement pattern of the area (CL5)

Scope for visual mitigation • Screen views from Newhurst gardens• Views limited by hedgerows and tree lines and surrounding built form• Reinforcement of the site boundary planting

Recommendations

The features of Area 6:A2 are typical of CL5 but the area relates well to the existing settlement pattern. Localised visual impacts could be mitigated. The landscape capacity is therefore moderate.



Area 6:B1 Newell Green centre

Area 6.B1 is the core of Newell Green and has important landscape and open space elements which define the character of the village. These include the Memorial Ground, The Cut, the riparian intimate character of landscape next to The Cut, tree line along The Cut and its loose open character. The area also includes a small scale pattern of trees and short hedgerows and scattered dwellings.

Key landscape characteristics which would be vulnerable to development are: • Important village landscape and open space features of the village (BFCAA)• The rural character of The Cut and Osbourne Lane• Open varied and small scale landscape/ townscape in good condition• Internal trees and hedges• Riparian character of the northern part of the area

Key visual features and views which would be vulnerable to development • Many views out from the village to the surrounding countryside• Views of the tree lined Cut and local small riparian fields• Views form Forest Road and Osbourne Lane• Low lying but prominent area

Other aspects to be taken into consideration • This area relates well to the townscape core of Newell Green

Scope for visual mitigation of a very limited amount of development • Screen planting, landmodelling and other forms of screening would result in adverse

changes to the character and of views across this area• Maintain existing boundary treatment and vegetation pattern (BFCAA).

Recommendations

The site features of Area 6.A2 are typical of the settled parts of CL5 and the area plays an important part in forming the distinctive character of the village. However the area potentially has scope for some limited development in the west corner of this area, as long as it is in keeping with the character of the centre of this village (refer to BFCAA). The landscape capacity is therefore moderate to low, with a little scope for development in the west.



Area 6:B2: Newell Hall and its setting

Area 6.B2 includes Newell Hall and its grounds. These are mostly pasture in small fields and some ornamental grounds to the Hall and Cuckoo Cottage. There is good tree cover within the grounds which enclose the area, restricting views.

Key landscape characteristics which would be vulnerable to development are: • Dense tree cover• Small fields and lawns contained by hedgerows and ornamental planting

Key visual features and views which would be vulnerable to development are: • Visual separation of the two villages• Views from Warfield Street and Osbourne Lane

Other aspects to be taken into consideration • Strong landscape separation of Newell Green and Warfield Street provided by the area

(BFCAA)• Hall dates from 1700• Broad Areassettlement pattern of the area (CL5) may be eroded by merging Newell

Green and Warfield Street

Scope for visual mitigation of very limited amount of development • Retain tree cover close to Warfield Street and Osbourne Lane• Landmodelling and other forms of screening, other than planting, would result in adverse

changes to the character and of views across this area.

Recommendations

The site features are typical of the mix of woodland and parkland features found in CL5. The area is also important in retaining the separate character of Newell Green and Warfield Street. Provided the inherent landscape pattern and visual qualities are not lost, the area may be able accommodate a little low density development. The landscape capacity is therefore moderate to low.



Area 6.B3: Magnolia House and the caravan park

Area 6.B3 includes Magnolia House and its grounds, the caravan park to the south and the fields to the east. The area is already settled, with property separated by hedgerows. The northern and eastern boundaries are well defined by trees and the southern boundary is contiguous with existing properties in Warfield Street.

Key landscape characteristics which would be affected by development are: • Open pasture and transition landscape between dense settled area of Warfield Street and

the open countryside to the north• Remaining field pattern

Key visual features and views which would be affected by development are: • Views from Gibbins Lane between existing property to the wider landscape

Other aspects to be taken into consideration • The area relates well to the existing settlement pattern and is already partly developed• The transitional nature of the area should be reflected in the form of any development• Development should reinforce the settlement pattern of the area (CL5)

Scope for visual mitigation • Retain and reinforce boundary tree and hedgerows• Allow views through any development to the wider landscape.

Recommendations and reasons

The above shows that the site features are typical of the mix of loose settlement, small fields and tree and hedge cover found around the settlements in CL5. However the vegetation pattern could be retained as a structure for any development. It would be important to ensure a strong landscape buffer to the northern and eastern boundaries. The landscape capacity is therefore moderate to high.

Review of Entec’s Assessment of Gaps/ Green Wedges15 report

Entec produced a report in 2006 as part of the evidence base for Bracknell Forest Council. The 4.13report includes an analysis of Gaps and Green Wedges. The analysis gives specific consideration to physical and visual separation provided by the landscape and how development may harm the character of the landscape and function of the Gaps/ Green Wedges. Although covered in Entec’s report, the review of Green Wedges is outside the scope of this report. The gaps assessed by Entec are shown below (Maps taken from Entec report):
