Appendix 1: Individual Site Assessments

This appendix contains the assessment template with the criteria for the assessment followed by the individual site assessments for all sites referred to in the tables above.

They are arranged in numerical site reference number order in the following groups.

1. Individual assessments for sites submitted for allocation that have no adverse impact onthe significance of heritage assets

2. Individual assessments for sites submitted for allocation that are likely to have someimpact (whether adverse or positive ) on the significance of heritage assets

3. Individual assessments for sites submitted for Minerals Area of Search that have noadverse impact on the significance of heritage assets

4. Individual assessments for sites submitted for Minerals Area of Search that are likely tohave some adverse impact on the significance of heritage assets

Site Assessment Pro-forma

Site Allocation: site number and location/address/Settlement

Use: Housing/Employment/Minerals

Heritage Assets affected:

A location map including site boundary and relationship to location of heritage assets identified in it:

What are the heritage assets affected? (describe in text): Identify Listed buildings/SMs/Conservation Areas/National and Local historic Parks and their settings

Contribution of the site to the Significance of the Heritage Assets:

What is the contribution of the site to the significance of the identified heritage assets?

In particular consider setting, edge of CAs, and contribution of open space. NB in a proportionate manner.

Is there any supporting evidence from photographs, listing descriptions, statements of significance, conservation area appraisals, national/local historic parks descriptions, heritage management plans etc.

Is there any further assessment needed?

Likely Impact of Allocation on Heritage Significance:

What are the likely impacts of the allocation of the site on the heritage significance of the identified heritage assets? Consider: Location, siting, form, appearance, other impacts.

Identify likely degree of harm: No harm/some harm/substantial harm

Heritage Constraints and Opportunities:

What opportunities are there for maximising enhancement or avoiding harm? (Particularly where allocation is likely to result in some degree of harm to a heritage asset).

Are there opportunities for enhancement? E.g. Repair of heritage asset / regeneration /improvement of conservation area / Building at risk / access / research or interpretation.

Are there means of avoiding harm? E.g. constraints on site boundary, location, density, height, form, materials, key views, (This can be used to inform developer requirements).

Recommendation:

Written summary based on degree of harm balanced against constraints and opportunities concluding with suitability of site for allocation as follows;

+ Opportunity to enhance a heritage asset or re-use a historic building at risk

Site Allocation: 051 - Plot 1, Land at Old Edlington

Use: Housing


The site is an arable field to the west of New Edlington. There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. Old Edlington conservation area is approximately 660m on rising ground to the south.




Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact


Use: Housing


The site is an arable field to the west of New Edlington. There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. Old Edlington conservation area is approximately 300m on rising ground to the south. The site reduces slightly the separation between the settlements but does not impact on the setting of the Old Edlington conservation area.




Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact


Use: Housing


The site is an arable field to the west of New Edlington. There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. Old Edlington conservation area is approximately 250m away on rising ground to the south with the core of the conservation area about 400m away.


The character of the conservation area derives from the limestone/clay pantile agricultural buildings and boundary walls set around the Grade 1 listed church and Manor farm. The allocation site contributes to separating the modern settlement of New Edlington from the historic Old Edlington conservation area.


Allocation for residential use will reduce the separation distance between the urban settlement and the conservation area to about 250m. However, it is not considered that this would constitute harm as there would still be a substantial buffer between the settlements.


Retention of field hedge boundaries would mitigate any impact.

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 060 - Land East of Wyke Gate Road, Thorne

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. The current boundary of Thorne Conservation Area does come within 250m of the site boundary but as part of the area’s appraisal it is recommended that the boundary be amended to exclude Trinity Academy, therefore removal it from within the buffer area. Due to this no heritage assets are considered to be affected.

Site Allocation: 101 - Land North of A614 / M18 Junction, Thorne

Use: Employment


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. There is a listed wharf 250m to the southwest of the site boundary but is not considered to be affected by the allocation due to the nature of the listed building (wall to river), distance and properties in between.




Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 109 - Land off Sunderland Street, Tickhill

Use: Housing


The site is outside the Tickhill CA which is 250m to the west. The grade 2 listed Sunderland Farm is 50m to the east of the northern edge of this long thin site. The listed building is separated from the site by a row of a modern development of 7 cottages of traditional appearance to the front and further new development of more conventional appearance behind.


The site makes no contribution to the heritage significance of the conservation area being out of sight in the long view out of the conservation area along Sunderland Street truncated by the railway bridge.

The northern tip of the site contributes to the wider setting of Sunderland Farm. The intervening area has already been developed. Whilst the rest of the development is relatively conventional, the terrace to the front has been carefully designed with the setting of the historic farm close in mind. The dwellings have the materials, form, scale, and detailing of a traditional terrace of cottages framing the approach to the farm close and visually separating it from the more modern development behind.


Modern development brought as far as the tip of the site would have an adverse impact on the setting of the listed farm and undermine the effect of the new cottage in reinforcing the setting. Allocating the bulk of the site would have little adverse impact.


Consideration of the form and character of the buildings as seen from Sunderland Street and the approach to the listed farm would mitigate any adverse impact arising from the allocation. Reinforcing green/open character or omitting the front tip of the site would have a similar effect.

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 111 - Land at Stevens Road, Balby

Use: Housing


There are no known above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. A Grade II listed monument lies approx. 150m to the north. This is separated by a railway and given the distance is not considered to be affected.




Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 115 - Alverley Lane, Balby

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of the boundary. The grade 2 listed St Catherines’s hospital administration block is about 450m away and separated from it by its parkland grounds and a thick tree belt, as well as Tickhill Road and the dwellings fronting it with their long gardens. Part of the grounds of St. Catherine’s is put forward as a park and garden of local historic interest and is a key element of the setting of the listed building. The allocation site does not impact on the significance of the parkland.




Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 116 - Armthorpe Lane, Barnby Dun

Use: Housing






Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 118 - St Marys Road, Dunsville

Site Allocation: 121 - Amersall Road, Scawthorpe

Use: Housing






Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 125 - Park Hill, Armthorpe Lane, Barnby Dun

Use: Housing


There are no above ground designated heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of the boundary. The application site has a parkland character being the former private ornamental park associated with Park Hill villa to the east of the site and dates from the mid-late C19th. To the right of the entrance (outside the site) is the former lodge to Park Hill villa. These do not have any heritage designation.


The parkland forms the historic setting to the villa. However, this building does not have heritage status and the parkland has not been considered for local designation as a historic park and garden therefore has low significance.


Allocation is likely to lead to the total loss of the parkland however this has been deemed of low heritage significance.

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 130 - Burger Road, Burger Common, Thorne

Use: Housing






Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 136 - Land at Bawtry Road, Finningley

Use: Housing


There are no listed buildings within the allocation site or within 250m of it. Part of the Finningley conservation area is within 250m of the site but is physically and visually separated from it by a belt of modern housing development. The four listed buildings including the grade 1 listed Church of the Holy Trinity and St Oswalds , and the grade 2 listed Parish Rooms, The Old Rectory, and Holly House are further away to the east of the village centre.


The site makes no contribution to the significance of the conservation area or the listed buildings within it.


The important elements of the conservation area are the green open spaces and village pond together with the buildings which face them and views out of the conservation area are not significant. The allocation is not likely to impact on the significance of these heritage assets.


None

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 139 - Land North of Wath Road, Mexborough

Use: Housing






Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 141 - Westwood Road, Bawtry

Use: Housing


There are no listed buildings within the allocation site or within 250m of it. The grade 2* listed Bawtry Hall is 500m away and separated from the site by a substantial tree belt. In addition to the listed hall, the ornamental garden of the hall to the south and east is a local park and garden of historic interest and the whole green space to the south of the hall is proposed to be added to the Bawtry Conservation Area. There is a grade 2 listed war memorial 470m to the east of the allocation site on the main road.


The site makes no contribution to the significance of the heritage assets mentioned above.


The open space and ornamental garden south of Bawtry Hall is confined on three sides by extensive tree belts which form a natural boundary to the conservation area and curtail views from the hall. The allocation would not impact on the significance of the heritage assets mentioned above.

There are long distance views (750m-1000m) of the allocation site from the south from within Bassetlaw DC although this is not considered to impact on the significance of these heritage assets.


None

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 142 - Land South of Sheffield Road, Conisbrough

Use: Housing






Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 145 - Land at Skellow

Use: Housing






Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 146 - Tickhill Road, Bawtry

Use: Housing


There are no listed buildings within the allocation site or within 250m of it. The Bawtry Conservation Area begins 350m to the east of the site where there are 3 listed structures ie the grade 2 listed bottling plant (former Home Farm barn to Bawtry hall), the Masonic Lodge, and its separately listed gates. Opposite the site across Tickhill Road is Menagerie Wood which was formerly associated with the grounds of Bawtry Hall but which was not recommended for inclusion in the locally designated park and garden based on the hall parkland and ornamental gardens as it is now isolated from the hall grounds by modern development.


Menagerie Wood and the tree lined verge of Tickhill Road forms an attractive entrance to the town but the site is separated from the conservation area by modern development and makes no contribution to the significance of the heritage assets mentioned above. The distance and road orientation means that the site is not viewed in conjunction with the heritage assets.


Allocating the site will not affect the significance of the heritage assets mentioned above.


There are no heritage constraints but if allocated consideration could be given to a tree lined edge to the allocation site to reflect the existing townscape and a soft edge to the west of the site to reflect the countryside.

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 147 - Land to North of Hatfield Lane, Barnby Dun

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of the site boundary. No heritage assets are affected by the allocation.




Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 148 - Loversall Land, Weston Road, Balby

Use: Housing


The site is part of the St Catherine’s Hospital complex which contains the grade 2 listed hall (St Catherines’s hospital administration block). The attached walled garden and the grounds of the hall between it and the main road which also contributes to its setting are proposed for designation as a park and garden of local historic interest.

However, there are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of the boundary. The grade 2 listed St Catherines’s hospital administration block is about 300m away, separated from it by modern hospital buildings, and not visible from it.


The hospital site generally has a green character some of which is derived from the mature trees on the wider site which complements the historic park). A stand of trees within the site makes a minor contribution to this.


Allocation would intensify the built for on the hospital site but this is unlikely to harm the significance of the heritage assets mentioned above.


Retention or some new planting of trees on the allocation site would complement the site as a whole and the heritage assets nearby.

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 149 - Nutwell South, Nutwell Lane, Armthorpe

Use: Housing and Employment


The site is a large site in flat landscape south of Armthorpe proposed for housing allocation. There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of the boundary. The grade 2* listed Cantley Hall lies about 1000m south east of the site. The parkland grounds and walled garden is designated as a park and garden of local historic interest and surrounds the hall. North of this is the Home Farm associated with the hall and which is within the Old Cantley conservation area being about 470m south east of the allocation site. The conservation area of Old Cantley based on the village formerly serving the hall lies about 700m south of the site. There are 2 fields north east and north west of Home Farm which have residual parkland characteristics but are outside the local designation.


The allocation site contributes to separating the modern settlement of Armthorpe from the historic village of Old Cantley and the historic landscape around the hall. The allocation site makes no contribution to the immediate setting of the hall.


Allocation would extend the urban character of Armthorpe to within 500m of the heritage assets mentioned above. The Home Farm and the parkland is characterised by plantations of trees which reduce the impact of the allocation on the historic park and garden. These belts of trees feature strongly in the flat landscape due to the intermittent hedgerow edge to the Armthorpe-Old Cantley road. The distant view to Old Cantley and views from Old Cantley are not key views and it is considered that, though separation is reduced, the impact is not sufficient to oppose the allocation. There is no impact from allocation of land to the east of the main road.


Retention or some new planting of trees on the edge boundaries would complement the landscape character of the area and provide a green edge to the countryside.

Site Allocation: 152 - Land off Bank End Quarry, Blaxton (Site 1)

Use: Housing


The site is adjacent to an existing quarry and is bounded to the south by a railway line beyond which is the modern part of the settlement of Finningley. There is no impact on any of the above ground heritage assets within the historic part of Finningley more than 500m away or heritage assets elsewhere.

Use: Employment






Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 164 - Land East of Warning Tongue Lane (1)

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of the boundary. The Old Cantley conservation area is 280m north of the site. The locally designated Old Cantley park and garden of historic interest is 125m north west of the site.


The site is arable land which contributes to the visual and physical separation between the historic village of Old Cantley and the urban area.


Allocation would reduce the openness of the area, however, the site is separated from Old Cantley by the main road and its hedges and the parkland is bounded by a thick belt of trees shielding it from any impact. Allocation would not harm the significance of the heritage assets mentioned above.


Retention or some new planting of trees on the allocation site and retention of roadside hedgerows would complement the site as a whole and the heritage assets nearby.

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 166 - Land East of Warning Tongue Lane (2)

Use: Housing


Immediately south of the allocation site is a Scheduled Monument (Roman pottery kilns) and the north east extremity of the South Bessacarr conservation area. These are separated from the site by a railway line.


South Bessacarr CA is a C20th suburb within a former woodland plantation. The significance of the South Bessacarr conservation area derives from its woodland character and the tree lined Warning Tongue Lane contributes to this character. That part of Warning Tongue Lane north of the railway line does not contribute to this significance and does not impact on the setting of the Scheduled Monument.


Allocation would not harm the significance of the heritage assets mentioned above. Archaeological implications are considered elsewhere.


None

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 170 - Land at Doncaster Road, Hatfield

Use: Housing


The site lies between Doncaster Road and Lings Lane 160m to the south of the Hatfield – Manor Road conservation area where Broadacres and a terrace of 6 almshouses mark the entrance. There are no listed buildings within 250m of the site although the grade 2 Lings Mill lies 300m to the south east.

For completeness, the 1854-55 OS map identifies the area south of the site as ‘the supposed site of a battle AD633’. This is taken as a reference to the battle of ‘Heathfield’ a significant Dark Age battle of the same date mentioned in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. The location is conjectural as there has been no archaeological evidence uncovered so far linking the site to the battle. There is more concrete evidence of iron age/Romano-British field systems on the site however archaeological considerations are covered elsewhere.


The entrance to the conservation area with ie Broadacres and the trees surrounding can be seen from the front of the site but it makes no contribution to the character of the conservation area.

There are views from Lings Mill to the open countryside around especially to the east. There are no views towards the site at ground level and higher up views are characterised in this direction by built form which immediately surrounds this triangular site on 2 sides. The site does not make a contribution to its heritage significance.


Allocating the site would have no impact on the heritage significance of the conservation area or to the setting of the listed Lings Mill.


None

Recommendation:

Site Allocation: 172 - Land off Narrow Lane, Bawtry

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of it. The proposed extension to the Bawtry Conservation Area begins at least 500m to the south west of the site and is unaffected by the allocation.




Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 174 - Land off Main Street, Auckley

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. The site lies approximately 100m south west of the grade 2 listed mounting block adjacent to the northeast corner of the Eagle and Child Public House.


The mounting block is closely associated with the attached public house and its significance is related to the roadside location and the historic function of this building as a coaching inn. The site is physically separated from the car park of the Eagle and Child public house by rear gardens and makes no contribution to the significance of this heritage asset.


None


Recommendation:

Site Allocation: 183 - (Surplus Land) Kirk Sandall Waste Water Treatment Works

Use: Employment


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of it. No heritage assets are affected.

Site Allocation: 187 - Land adj. 17 Lings Lane, Hatfield

Use: Housing


The site lies off Lings Lane 200m to the south of the Hatfield – Manor Road conservation area where Broadacres and a terrace of 6 almshouses mark the entrance. There are no listed buildings within 250m of the site although the grade 2 Lings Mill lies 370m to the south.


Lings Lane is a ribbon development with properties fronting the lane. The site is to the rear of this and visually separated from the entrance to the conservation area located as it is between the buildings of Lings Hill Farm and a large property set back to the north as well as intervening hedges and trees. It makes no contribution to the heritage significance of the conservation area.

There are views from Lings Mill to the open countryside around especially to the east. Views north are restricted at ground level by hedges and trees and higher up by the buildings north and south of the site. The site does not make a contribution to its heritage significance.


The allocation site has an indicative number of 14 units. Development to the rear would be somewhat against the ribbon development character of the lane but it would have no impact on the heritage significance of the conservation area or to the setting of the listed Lings Mill.


Retention of the boundary hedge features to maintain the rural character against open countryside.

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 192 - Land off Broadway, Dunscroft

Use: Housing


There are no above ground designated heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of the site. The site lies to the west of the rear gardens of paired and short terraces of houses fronting the Broadway. The Broadway could be considered to have some local heritage significance being a long spine road of planned miner’s housing dating from the early/mid C20 to serve Hatfield colliery. The buildings are much altered and the Broadway does not have any recognised heritage status.


The site does not impact on the planned design of the spine road however there is a pair of frontage buildings affected by access needed to the site.


Development behind the frontage buildings would not affect the layout though it is more prevalent to the east side of the Broadway. Access to the allocation site would remove a pair of frontage buildings. In view of the overall planned layout and low heritage significance this would not be considered significant.

Site Allocation: 281 - Land off Worksop Road, Tickhill

Use: Housing


The site is outside the Lindrick character area of Tickhill CA which ends in roughly in an arc 170m to the north and east. 200m north west of the site and off Rotherham Road is the grade 2* listed Friary and 3 associated grade 2 listed buildings which are the remnants of the medieval Tickhill Friary complex. These are within the conservation area which is demarcated to the south by the tree lined Friars Lane.


The site is separated from the Lindrick part of the conservation area by a late C20th estate (Lindrick Close) and by a line of semi-detached and terraced dwellings facing Worksop Road which have a suburban character. The site makes no contribution to the heritage significance of the Lindrick conservation area being out of sight in the long view out of the conservation area along Lindrick Lane. The site is visible from part of the main Rotherham Road but is visually separated from the rest of it and the listed buildings by the Friary Walk. The main contribution of the site is as a visual stop (due to the trees on the site) to the line of modern development as seen from here. The site makes no contribution to the setting of the above mentioned listed buildings.


The allocation footprint represents a continuation of the existing modern linear development which would have a very minor adverse impact on views from the main road. The indicative number of units in the allocation is 11 which appears similar in density to the adjacent semi-detached properties.


There would be little adverse impact on the conservation area with the continuation of the building line and forms/materials which complemented those existing on this road. Reinforcing green character to the front of the site would have a similar effect.

Site Allocation: 309 - Land off Westminster Drive, Dunsville

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. Two grade 2 listed buildings are located within 250m of the site i.e. Wyndthorpe Hall, and a milepost west of the hall entrance. The grounds of Wyndthorpe Hall have sufficient historic character to be assessed as a park and garden of local historic interest and provide the immediate setting for the listed building.


The heritage significance of the milestone is related to its roadside location and the allocation site does not contribute to this.

The site is separated from the hall and its grounds by a field and by the main road. As an open area with countryside character it makes a minor contribution to the wider setting of the hall and its parkland.


The development of the site will expand the urban area and is likely to have a minor adverse impact on the wider setting of the park and garden by urbanising the character of the countryside opposite.


The retention of the green boundary and any hedge and trees to the southern boundary would reduce the minor adverse impact on the park and garden.

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. One grade 2 listed building is recorded at 210m from the site consisting of a mounting block adjacent to the northeast corner of the Eagle and Child Public House.


The mounting block is closely associated with the attached public house and its significance is related to the roadside location and historic function of this building as a coaching inn. The site is separated from the main road and from the listed building by housing and there is no visual relationship between the allocation site and the listed structure.

Site Allocation: 347 - Margatroyds, Stainforth Lane, Barnby Dun

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. The nearest heritage asset is the Grade 1 listed church of St Peter and St Paul which lies about 220m to the south west of the site.


The immediate setting of the church consists of narrow lanes bounded by limestone walls with small scale modern and traditional buildings of mainly linear form and a graveyard to the north. The church tower is an important feature in the historic part of the village. There are long distance views of the church tower across the allocation site from Stainforth Road which previously was dominated by the Thorpe Marsh cooling towers prior to their demolition. This view disappears close up to the application site.


Due to the bend in Bramwith Road and the intervening housing, the site is out of view of the church and there are no views of the church tower in conjunction with the site from this direction.

Provided buildings were of the same scale and height as the existing housing in the vicinity there would be little change to long views from Stainforth Road although more of the trees around the church being obscured.


In any development buildings should be no greater in scale and height than existing housing in the vicinity.

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the site or within 250m of it. The adjacent park contains a war memorial and is of local heritage significance.

Site Allocation: 376 - Broadway, Dunscroft, H9-004

Use: Housing


There are no above ground designated heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of the site. The site lies to the east of the rear gardens of paired and short terraces of houses fronting the Broadway. The Broadway could be considered to have some local heritage significance being a long spine road of planned miner’s housing dating from the early/mid C20 to serve Hatfield colliery. The buildings are much altered and the Broadway does not have any recognised heritage status.


This irregular site does not impact on the planned design of the spine road however the generous green spaces within and around the design which includes the allocation site were distinctive features of the planned colliery villages. The site includes 3 of the frontage plots presumably to access the land.


The space is to the rear of the planned estate and there is already modern infill in the vicinity. However, the allocation of this green space would reduce the legibility of the planned design. Access to the allocation site would also remove a pair of frontage buildings. In view of the overall planned layout and low heritage significance this would not be considered significant enough to object to the allocation.

Site Allocation: 862 - 125A, 127, 127A, 129 AND 131A Balby Road, Balby

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site or any designated assets within 250m of it. No designated heritage assets are affected by the allocation. The adjacent Balby Methodist Church can be considered to have local heritage significance (historic and architectural) and has a strong street presence.


The terraced buildings on the site are contemporary to the chapel and provide a historic context. There is an existing permission to convert some of the buildings to residential use (14/02130/FULM). The remaining terraces are covered in allocation 686.


Allocation based on this permission ie conversion of the existing buildings would not affect the heritage significance of the chapel.


The buildings have a tired appearance and careful conversion could enhance the street scene and thereby the context to the chapel.

Site Allocation: 872 - Land at Melton Road, Sprotbrough

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site or within 250m of the site boundary. Immediately outside the buffer at about 255m west of the site is a scheduled monument (long cairn). The cairn is within the curtilage of a residential property and bounded by hedge and trees which in combination with the distance separation mean that allocation would not affect its setting. 350m south east of the site is the Sprotborough Conservation Area which is physically and visually separated from it by residential development. No heritage assets are affected by the allocation.

Site Allocation: 893 - Land Of The Former Cinema, Edlington Lane, Edlington

Use: Housing


The adjacent park to the northeast contains a war memorial. This is of at least local heritage significance and is recognised as such in the Edlington Neighbourhood Plan. At the time of writing we are also awaiting the outcome of a listing application for the memorial. An approval for the erection of 16 apartments over 4 floors was granted for the site under 14/02581/FULM. From a conservation viewpoint the height would now be considered overbearing in relation to the contemplative nature of the park and monument. As the site already has planning permission and construction is well under way there is no potential for mitigation and no further heritage assessment is considered relevant. Allocating the site has therefore been assessed as having ‘no adverse impact’ as anything other than a neutral score would be misleading.

No other heritage assets are affected.

An approval for the erection of 12 apartments following demolition of the existing public house (Station Hotel) and associated outbuilding was granted under 17/03110/FULM following a previous approval for 13 apartments under 14/01733/FULM. The buildings had no formal heritage designation but the hotel was the most significant historic building in this section of the street. It would have had some local historic interest as reflecting part of the history of Bawtry after the coming of the railways though it lacked the architectural character of ‘station hotels’ elsewhere. No other heritage assets are affected.

As the historic buildings have been demolished as part of implementing the permissions there are no further opportunities or constraints to consider so no further heritage assessment is considered relevant. Allocating the site has therefore been assessed as having ‘no adverse impact’ as anything other than a neutral score would be misleading.

Site Allocation: 966 - Bawtry Hall, South Parade, Bawtry

Use: Housing


Bawtry Hall is a Grade2* listed building within the Bawtry Conservation Area. The building is a Georgian hall with later additions to the side and rear. These comprise the remnants of an C18th service wing, Edwardian extensions, and post 1941 extensions associated with its wartime and later cold war use. The associated agricultural buildings and the area to the rear have been developed for residential use. The site occupies the southern end of the Bawtry conservation area and the formal garden area to the south and its surrounding woodland is designated as a local park and garden.

There have been various approvals and listed building consents for the conversion of the Victorian/Edwardian service wing to apartments and these works are either completed or significantly advanced. The works granted under these permissions were not considered to be harmful to the heritage significance of these parts of the listed building with some benefit in bringing under-utilised parts of the building into use.

Site Allocation: 980 - Doncaster Racecourse, Leger Way, Intake

Use: Housing


There are no known above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. The site lies opposite Doncaster – Town Field Conservation Area with the Doncaster School for the Deaf complex including two key unlisted buildings of the area. It also is in vicinity to the Grade II Listed Grand St. Leger, a three storied Georgian villa, now a hotel. Next to the application site is the Old Weighing Room, which is a one storey pavilion, and beyond this are the large modern main grandstands. There are also several single storied buildings associated with stabling on the site (although not of any particular architectural interest) and many fine trees. Planning permission has been given for an eight storied hotel and an adjoining residential block. The hotel has been built but the apartment block has not.

The housing element will be set behind the hotel which is already set back within the site giving it distance from the above mentioned listed and key unlisted buildings. This means that the housing element will have little if any impact on the heritage assets given the distance and the presence of the hotel and other racing building between it and the heritage assets.

Site Allocation: 995 - Menagerie Wood, Bawtry

Use: Housing


There are no listed buildings within the allocation site or within 250m of it. The Bawtry Conservation Area begins 350m to the east of the site where there are 3 listed structures ie the grade 2 listed bottling plant (former Home Farm barn to Bawtry hall), the Masonic Lodge, and its separately listed gates. Menagerie Wood which was formerly associated with the grounds of Bawtry Hall but which was not recommended for inclusion in the locally designated park and garden based on the hall parkland and ornamental gardens as it is now isolated from the hall grounds by modern development.


Menagerie Wood and the tree lined verge of Tickhill Road forms an attractive entrance to the town but the site is separated from the conservation area by modern development and makes no contribution to the significance of the heritage assets mentioned above. The distance and road orientation means that the site is not viewed in conjunction with the heritage assets.


The wood is an attractive feature but allocating the site would not affect the significance of the heritage assets mentioned above.


If allocated consideration could be given to a tree lined edge to the allocation site to reflect the existing townscape and a soft edge to the west of the site to reflect the countryside.

There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. The current boundary of Thorne Conservation Area does come within approximately 500m of the site boundary but as part of the area’s appraisal it is recommended that the boundary of the conservation area be amended to exclude Trinity Academy, therefore this allocation site will be removed further from the conservation area. There is also modern housing and a field as well as the school between this site and the recommended boundary of the conservation area. Due to this no heritage assets are considered to be affected.

Site Allocation: 1008 - 8 Acre Field, Townend Farm, Ramskir Lane, Stainforth

Use: Housing


The grade 2 listed Town End Farmhouse on Ramskin Lane lies adjacent to the south-east corner of the site. The grade2 listed lock cottages is 60m north of the closest part of the site and across the Don Navigation though separated visually by a stand of trees.


The listed Town End Farmhouse is in a large curtilage which has an agricultural context with a range of barns and is visually separated by boundary hedge and trees from the surrounding agricultural land so the allocation site adds very little to its significance.

The cottages have historic significance as evidence of the historic canal character of the area. The lock cottages lie across the canal from the site and immediately east of a small marina both of which form its setting reflecting the historic use of the buildings. Currently the site is visually separated from these by a tree belt which beyond the canal path on that side. These contribute to the general canal setting and isolate the allocation site.


Allocation should not have an adverse impact on the heritage significance of Town End Farmhouse or the setting to the listed lock cottages due to the visual separation of the site by tree belts from these heritage assets.


Green and open character or tree planting to the south east of the site would add to the setting of the listed farmhouse.

Site Allocation: 1025 - Site 1 (Brownfield) Land to the East of Old Bawtry Road

Use: Housing


There are no listed buildings within the allocation site or within 250m of it and no listed buildings would be affected by allocation. The site lies south of the Finningley conservation area with the main part of the site separated from the conservation area by dwellings on Old Bawtry Road that are generally well set back in long thin gardens.


Though surrounded by higher density modern development the conservation area is characterised by low-density housing, attractive historic buildings, a village green and pond, and other areas of open space. The purpose of the conservation areas designation is to preserved and enhance this character. The western edge of the site fronts the long straight and tree lined Old Bawtry Road which gives a long view out of the conservation area which does not have the built up character prevalent elsewhere in Finningley. However, this is at some distance away from the conservation area.


The allocation has potential to urbanise the view from the green space along the lane mentioned above through the introduction of buildings and the upgrading of access to modern requirements which would be detrimental to the character and appearance of the conservation area. It would introduce more built up forms to Old Bawtry Road affecting the long distance view out of the conservation area.


The view out of the CA along Old Bawtry Road would not be affected with the retention of a green edge and the setting back of any buildings from the frontage.

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 1040 - Off Sheep Bridge Lane, Rossington

Use: Housing


The western edge of a scheduled monument (Roman vexillation fort) extends into the adjacent field. There are no listed buildings within the site or within 250m of the allocation site and no conservation areas or other heritage assets are affected. The listed buildings within Old Rossington (including St Michael’s Church) are over 300m away and unaffected by the allocation site.


The site is some distance away and concealed by bends in the main road so makes no contribution to the significance of the listed buildings at the centre of Old Rossington. The site is separated from the scheduled monument by a hedge and field and does not contribute to an appreciation of the monument.


The Scheduled Monument and the presence of Roman finds in the wider area suggests that the likelihood of archaeological finds across the site is high. The archaeological potential of the site is considered elsewhere. There are no impacts on any other heritage assets.

Site Allocation: 1058 - Land Off Westminster Drive, Dunsville

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. Two grade 2 listed buildings are located within 250m of the site i.e. Wyndthorpe Hall, and a milepost west of the hall entrance. The grounds of Wyndthorpe Hall have sufficient historic character to be assessed as a park and garden of local historic interest and provide the immediate setting for the listed building.


The heritage significance of the milestone is related to its roadside location and the allocation site does not contribute to this.

The site is separated from the hall and its grounds by a field and by the main road. As an open area with countryside character it makes a minor contribution to the wider setting of the hall and its parkland.


The development of the site will expand the urban area and is likely to have a minor adverse impact on the wider setting of the park and garden by urbanising the character of the countryside opposite.


The retention of the green boundary and any hedge and trees to the southern boundary would reduce the minor adverse impact on the park and garden.

Site Allocation: 1060 - Land Between Hatfield, Stainforth, Dunscroft And Dunsville, Doncaster, DN7

Use: Housing


This is an extensive site covering large proportion (though not all) of the land bounded to the south by Hatfield, to the west by Stainforth, to the north by the canal and to the east by the M18. The site surrounds on 3 sides but does not include the former Hatfield Colliery which contains one listed building i.e. the grade 2 listed Hatfield Colliery Headstocks. There are 2 listed buildings in Stainforth whose settings are potentially affected by the DN7 allocation due to proximity. Outside the site, the grade 2 listed Town End Farmhouse on Ramskin Lane occupies an indent immediately to the west of the site which forms the north and east boundaries of its curtilage. Also affected is the canal-side setting of the grade2 listed lock cottages 60m west of the site.

Other listed structures are at some distance from the site, mostly clustered in the settlement of Fishlake which is a conservation area 50m north west of the northern boundary of the site across a waterway.

The conservation areas of Hatfield and its listed buildings are at least 700m south of the site and the allocation is unlikely to have any impact here. Likewise, the Thorne conservation area 1700m east is at too great a distance and separated by the elevated M18 for there to be any impact from the allocation.


The central part of the site is dominated by the former Hatfield Colliery and its immediate spoil heaps including the railway which forms the setting of the listed headstocks and reflects its historic use. The scale and character of the headstocks is best appreciated in views close up from the west and particularly from the railway bridges within the site. The southern part of the side and east as far as, and including the M18 provides the wider context from which there are intermittent views of the colliery complex. (There are also views of the pair of headtocks over the flat landscape along Doncaster Road as it approaches Stainforth from the direction of Barnby Dunn).

The northern part of the site north of Ramskin Lane provides the landscape setting for views out of Fishlake currently dominated by the spoilheaps which obscure views to the headstocks. Parts of this to the west also provide the backdrop and canal character for the listed lock cottages. The listed Town End Farmhouse is in a large curtilage which has an agricultural context with a range of barns and is visually separated by boundary hedge and trees from the surrounding agricultural land so the allocation site adds very little to its significance.


This is a very large site and the likely impacts of allocation vary across the site.

The allocation site surrounds the headstocks with existing permissions for industrial scale buildings in the immediate vicinity. The critical area is in the vicinity of the railway line and immediately south of the headstocks where allocation may adversely impact on views and affect the setting. Allocation may also interrupt some medium and long distance views though this has less impact on significance.

Allocation should not impact on the heritage significance of Town End Farmhouse but would alter the character of the backdrop to the listed lock cottages with potentially adverse impact on their heritage significance.

The northern part of the allocation site faces the Fishlake conservation area. The approved masterplan shows the area immediately south of the conservation area and the Don Navigation to be a marina linked to the canal with housing beyond. Allocation would reduce the isolated character of Fishlake by replacing views of open areas with a marina and built form beyond with the presence of the marina providing a buffer to the housing areas. This would impact on views to the south of the village from the canal walk though it would have less impact on the conservation area and its listed buildings where views within the village are more important.


There is an outline approval (15/01300/OUTA) for a mixed use development covering most of the allocation site. The approved masterplan shows a marina development on the northern edge of the site which would complement the setting of the listed lock cottages.

The approval requires the submission of a design guide for the housing development in each of the sub areas of the site which would be ‘informed by a local character appraisal’. In considering the details of the design guides, those that enhanced the canal side character or introduced development that had such character at the north edge of the allocation site would enhance the setting of the listed lock cottages. Design guides should also take into account close/medium/long distance views of the headstocks as this would contribute to preserving their heritage significance.

The listed headstocks do not have an obvious end use and are considered to be ‘at risk’. Though they are outside the boundary of this allocation site, future schemes in the immediate area that incorporated the headstocks or found new uses for them would be considered positively from a conservation viewpoint and this is enshrined in the site specific policy for the wider DN7/Unity site.

Provided the development is carried out in accordance with the layout in the approved scheme and in determining reserved matters the setting of the heritage assets is taken into account as described above then allocation would not lead to any adverse impacts.

Recommendation:

0 No adverse impact

Site Allocation: 1072 - Spar Stores, 7 High Street, Hatfield

Use: Housing


The site is at the centre of the Hatfield –High Street conservation area. The character of the conservation area is that of an extended linear village of generally small scale historic buildings fronting directly onto the highway. These tend to be two storeys high with clay pantile and brick being the predominant building materials. The frontage building is typical of this character though dilapidated. To the side Church Walk leads to the Grade 1 listed Church of St Lawrence. The metal gates to the churchyard are separately grade 2 listed. There are a number of other grade 2 listed buildings on the High Street as well as other historic buildings that make a positive contribution to the conservation area.


The Hatfield High Street conservation area reflects the medieval core of Hatfield which has a historic pattern of settlement. The frontage building of the site is a much altered traditional 2 storey building that contributes to the streetscene. The eastern side of the site flanks Church Walk which is a short lane that approaches the church via the listed metal gates and therefore the site contributes to the setting of these heritage assets as well as the character of the conservation area.


A restored or improved frontage building would contribute to enhancing the character of the streetscene and enhance the conservation area. Replacing the dilapidated and untidy building on Church Walk would contribute to enhancing the appearance of the conservation area and the setting of the listed church.


There is permission granted for apartments and café on the site. At the time of writing the site has already been developed and the café has opened. Therefore there are no further opportunities or constraints to consider. Allocating the site has been assessed as having ‘no adverse impact’ as anything other than a neutral score would be misleading.

The site lies in Doncaster – High Street Conservation Area and opposite the Grade I listed St. George’s Minster and its conservation area. The present building is considered to make a negative contribution to its surroundings. It can be converted to apartments without needing prior approval as no external alterations are proposed and therefore is not considered to impact on the conservation area or the minster so no heritage assets are considered to be impacted.

The grade 2 listed Stockbridge Farm is about 250m north of the site and the separately grade 2 listed farm buildings a little beyond this. 120m to the south east is a scheduled monument which is the Moat Hills moated site.


The site makes no contribution to the setting of the listed buildings being visually and physically separated from it.

Site Allocation: 008 - Wynthorpe Farm, Dunsville

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. Two grade 2 listed

buildings are located within 250m of the site i.e. Wyndthorpe Hall, and a milepost west of

the hall entrance. The grounds of Wyndthorpe Hall have sufficient historic character to be

assessed as a park and garden of local historic interest and provide the immediate setting

for the listed building.


The heritage significance of the milestone is related to its roadside location and the

allocation site does not contribute to this.

The site forms part of the approach to the hall which has a green character on both sides

of the main road derived from the hedges, trees and the open fields beyond. These

contribute to the wider setting of the hall and its grounds.


The development of the site will expand the urban area and is likely to have some adverse

impact (harm) on the wider setting of the park and garden by urbanising the character of

the countryside opposite.


The retention of the green boundary and any hedge and trees would reduce the adverse

impact on the park and garden. Lower density development would also help avoid an

overly urban character.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 042 - Land to rear of Skellow Hall

Use: Housing


The site is a pasture to the south of Skellow. There are no above ground heritage assets

within the allocation site. It lies immediately to the south of Skellow-Buttercross

Conservation Area. The Scheduled Monuments of Cromwell’s Batteries (remains of a

motte and bailey castle) and the Butter Cross (plinth of possible medieval market cross)

lie 100m to the north. There are also four Grade II listed buildings within the 250 buffer

zone, two of which are within 100m of the site and are both converted barns.


The character of the conservation area is as a rural settlement mentioned in the

Domesday Book that has been surrounded with suburban developments from the

twentieth century, although to the south is countryside. Immediate to the north of the

site is Skellow Hall that is a key unlisted building in the conservation area, and whose

frontage looks towards the site across a formal forecourt, although trees have been

planted that now obscure this view. The site is also well treed around its boundary.


Allocation of the site to residential use will harm the setting of the conservation area.

Even though the field is currently hidden from view due to the trees around its edge (in

winter this is likely to be less so) its undeveloped nature has a positive benefit.

Development within will be apparent both by breaching the tree coverage but also as

development will bring fences and dwellings into the site that are highly unlikely to not be

noticeable and remove the direct boundary of the countryside with this rural

conservation area.


The character of the conservation area will be substantial harmed by the allocation of this

land.

Recommendation:

-- Significant adverse impact which may not be possible to mitigate


Use: Housing


The site is an arable field to the south of New Edlington. There are no above ground

heritage assets within the allocation site. The nearest part of the Old Edlington

conservation area is approximately 175m from the edge of the allocation site. There is a

Scheduled Monument (iron age or medieaval earthwork) within Edlington Wood 200m

north east of the site. Edlington Wood is also designated a local park and garden of

historic interest.


The character of the conservation area derives from the limestone/clay pantile

agricultural buildings and boundary walls set around the Grade 1 listed church and Manor

farm. The allocation site contributes to separating the modern settlement of New

Edlington from the historic Old Edlington conservation area. The site does not contribute

to the setting of the Scheduled Monument or Edlington Wood as a locally designated park

and garden but there may be archaeological implications which are considered

elsewhere.


Allocation for residential use will reduce the separation distance between the urban

settlement and the conservation area to 75m. Coalescing the settlements will threaten

the historic identity and character of the conservation area resulting in some harm to its

heritage significance. This impact would be most marked in development of the area

adjacent to the main road. Allocating the indented area to the north only would bring the

urban settlement no closer to the conservation area and not harm its significance.


Ideally reduce the allocation to the small indent into the urban area but certainly omit the

field adjacent to the main road from the allocation.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 066 - Land at Old Mill Field, off Epworth Road East, Hatfield

Use: Mineral


The site is flat arable land east of the M18 and 400m south east of the Hatfield High

Street conservation area. The separation distance involved and physical and visual barrier

of the M18 is such that the conservation area and its listed buildings are not affected by

the allocation site.

220m east of the allocation site is the grade 2 listed Mortuary Chapel at Hatfield

Cemetery. Tower mill, a grade 2 listed windmill is a similar distance to the south.


The Mortuary Chapel is situated within a substantial graveyard which forms the

immediate setting of the listed building and provides its context. The surrounding

countryside is flat with the allocation site being 70m to the west of the back of the

graveyard. The site contributes to the restrained landscape around the graveyard and its

contemplative character. Likewise views north over the immediate flat landscape

contribute to the significance of the mill.


Allocation of the site for mineral use (gravel extraction) will have a temporary impact on

the setting of both the Mortuary Chapel and Tower Mill from noise, and visually from

potential bunding. It is not clear how/where it would be accessed but this could have an

additional adverse impact. Provided the site is levelled and restored this impact would not

be permanent.


The setting of the listed Mortuary Chapel and Tower Mill would not be permanently

affected with restoration of the existing flat landscape.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 072 - Acres Ranch, Warning Tongue Lane, Cantley

Use: Housing


The south west half of the site is occupied by a Scheduled Monument (Roman pottery

kilns). There are no listed buildings within the site or within 250m of the allocation site. A

part of the South Bessacarr Conservation area is within 250m of the site but is mostly

separated by a housing development and trees. That part of the site adjacent to Warning

Tongue Lane lies opposite the north east extremity of the conservation area.


South Bessacarr CA is a C20th suburb within a former woodland plantation. The

significance of the South Bessacarr conservation area derives from its woodland character

and the tree lined Warning Tongue Lane contributes to this character. Trees within the

site adjacent to the road would make some contribution to the character of the road and

the conservation area although the site is mostly open in this area.

The Scheduled Monument occupies half the site.


The Scheduled Monument and the presence of Roman finds in the wider area suggests

that the likelihood of archaeological finds across the site is high. The archaeological

potential of the site is considered elsewhere. Allocation of the southern part of the site

would lead to the loss of part of the scheduled monument. The heritage significance is

archaeological so setting may be less of an issue elsewhere given a satisfactory buffer.

Allocation would have no significant impact on the South Bessacarr conservation area as

significant trees belong to domestic curtilages outside the site.


Scheduled Monument Consent or planning permission is highly unlikely to be granted to

develop the southern part of the site as it would lead to its total loss. Areas outside the

Scheduled Monument may be considered further subject to an archaeological evaluation.

Recommendation:


The allocation would not affect the South Bessacarr conservation area but would lead to

substantial harm to the scheduled monument.

Site Allocation: 087 - Kearsley Brook, Sheffield Road, Conisbrough

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. The Grade II listed

Red Lion PH lies approx. 100m northeast of the site.


The Red Lion has a roadside location and is prominent in the streetscene. The site lies on

the roadside to the southwest of the Red Lion. The site therefore forms part of the setting

of the Red Lion, especially immediately to the side of the road. A roadside historic wall

runs along parts of the site. The part of the site nearest to the Red Lion has a green

character which with the open land in between makes a positive contribution to the listed

building. The rest of the site has an industrial feel with an old roadside building (which

seems of low historic significance although further investigation may be warranted) and

further along palisade fencing behind part of the stone wall forming the streetscape.


The development of the site will change it from industrial to residential this potentially

could have a positive impact depending on its design.


The retention of the green areas and the stone wall would be considered important.

There is however great scope to improve the setting of the listed building with

improvements especially to the roadside. Along with the retention of the wall, which

could be heightened and extended although this needs to be done with matching stone,

the introduction of further greenery and appropriate designed roadside buildings could

also enhance the setting of the listed building. There would also need to be an

assessment from the footpaths in the immediate area to see if further enhancement

could also be achieved. The number of units may however need to be adjusted.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 093 - Marshgate, West of North Bridge Road

Use: Employment


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. There is a Grade II

listed water tower across the River Don Navigation to the south of the site. Approx. 200m

to the north is a Grade II listed bridge associated with the early 19th century Toll Road to

Selby. Approximately 300m in a south-easterly direction is the Grade I listed Minster,

which is also a significant landmark.


Depending on the scale of the development this will affect the setting of both the Grade II

water tower and the Grade I listed Minster.


If of a low scale it will have some impact on the setting of the water tower, although this

is itself industrial so may be minimal impact and little if any impact on the Minster. If of a

higher scale of development, it may need to accommodate the setting of the water tower

and views to and from the Minster.


Assessing if the proposal impacts on the setting and views of the water tower and the

Minster and mitigating any impact.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 105 - South of Backfield Lane, Hatfield

Use: Housing


There are no designated heritage assets within the site. The Hatfield –High Street

conservation area abuts the site immediately to the north.

There are 3 grade 2 listed buildings within 250m of the site. These are No.54 fronting the

High Street and its separately listed stable block on Back Lane, and the Old Chapel also

fronting the High Street. Some 260m to the west is the grade 1 listed Manor House.


The Hatfield High Street conservation area reflects the medieval core of Hatfield which

has a historic pattern of settlement. The High Street that grew around the manor hall and

church is characterised by long thin ‘strip plots’ ending in informal back lanes which are

still legible. Beyond these were open fields which were enclosed after 1825 and most of

the boundaries established then are historic hedgerows still visible today. Though outside

the conservation area boundary, which is drawn around buildings and their curtilages, the

lack of development in the fields north and south of the High Street enables the enclosure

fields to be perceived and prevents the historic character of the conservation area from

being submerged. The allocation site covers 2 enclosure fields south of the High Street

which contribute to the significance of the conservation area in this way. In addition, the

presence of agricultural fields close to and visible from Back Lane is a reminder of the

former agricultural character of Hatfield.

The site does not contribute to the significance of the listed buildings fronting the High

Street and does not contribute to the setting of the barn off Back Lane. The Manor Hall

formerly had a large square curtilage which may have been a moated site and from which

there would be views of open countryside which includes the allocation site. The

presence of edge trees to the east of the Manor Hall curtails the view out and minimises

any contribution the allocation site may make to its setting.


The allocation site has an indicative number of 44 units. Allocation would not affect the

setting of the listed buildings including the Manor Hall.

The historic legibility of the village as described above would be reduced as will the

perception of the countryside reaching tight to the village edge. Access requirements

may also alter the lane character of Back Lane away from its narrow unverged character

which is part of the character of the conservation area. Allocation of sites into the

enclosure belt south of the village would set a precedent for adjacent strips and result in

harm to the heritage significance of the conservation area.


By allocating the site it is difficult to see how harm could be avoided to the heritage

significance of the conservation area as described above.

The conservation area is describes as a conservation area ‘at risk’ chiefly due to the

substantial loss of historic details on properties fronting the High Street especially

windows. Allocation would not provide opportunities to address this.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 108 - White House Farm, Bramwith Lane, Barnby Dun

Use: Housing


The site consists of a farm and its immediate farmland which lies in open ground between

the northern edge of Barnby Dunn and a railway line and is bounded to the east by

Bramwith Lane and to the south by the river Don. There are no above ground heritage

assets within the allocation site. The Grade 1 listed church of St Peter and St Paul lies

150m to the south of the site.


The immediate setting of the church consists of narrow lanes bounded by limestone walls

with small scale modern and traditional buildings of mainly linear form and a graveyard to

the north. The church tower is an important feature in the historic part of the village and

is a feature on approaching the village from the west across the river Don. The river edge

of the site will be seen in conjunction with the broad view across to the village.

The allocation site is separated from the church by a modern housing development and

due to the bend in Bramwith Road the site is out of view of the church and there are no

views back to the church tower from this direction.


The allocation may cause some harm to the setting of the listed building in views from the

west if any development is out keeping with the village character in terms of design and

scale.


Consideration would need to be given to the character of the river edge of the allocation

so that it complements the village character. This could be in terms of scale and design of

buildings and in retaining a green and open character to the edge.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 120 - Manor Road, Hatfield

Use: Housing


The 2 separated areas of the site are within the Hatfield – Manor Road conservation area.

There are 8 grade 2 listed buildings within 250m of the site. Either side of the allocation

sites are the grade 2 listed Bow House and The Leylands. Ash Hill Lodge is 120m north

west of the site. Across from the site are 2 grade 2 listed barns which are part of a farm

complex (Hatfield House Farm). Thackray House and its separately listed barn are 50m

north of the site. 31 Manor Road is 85m north east of the site.

Hatfields public house is a historic (key unlisted) building at the junction of Manor Road

and Ash Hill Road. Broadacres adjacent to the western site is a large property in

substantial grounds and has architectural merit.


The Hatfield - Manor Road conservation area lies to the south of the village core of

Hatfield and its origins are later and character very different. It has a more open and

green character with detached properties of architectural merit dating from the 18th

Century onwards. These lie either side of Manor Road set in the middle of substantial

curtilages. Several of these are listed properties. The large numbers of trees either side of

the main road give it an avenue character. In addition, the presence of 2 agricultural fields

close to and in places visible from main roads is a reminder of the former rural and open

character of this part of Hatfield with views into open countryside. The allocation site

consists of these 2 fields. Both sides of Manor Road including the allocation site boundary

are primarily lined with historic brick walls which also contribute to the character of this

conservation area.

The site contributes to the spaciousness of the area which is part of the setting of the

listed buildings mentioned above apart from 31 Manor Road and to some extent Ashill

Lodge which are both visually separated from the site. The eastern allocation site lies

directly opposite Manor House Farm and give an agricultural context to its setting and the

setting of its listed barns which gives views into open countryside.


The allocation site has an indicative number of 42 units and would give this side of Manor

Road in the centre of the conservation area a suburban character completely at odds with

its historic open and green character replacing the agricultural character which

contributes to the character of the conservation area. Due to its location and the

relatively small size of the conservation area this would have a disproportionate adverse

impact on its overall character. There is suburban development to the north outside the

conservation area but being set back from the road and separated by a belt of trees this

has minimal impact on character. This would not be the case to the south and would

constitute substantial harm to the heritage significance of the conservation area.

Further adverse impacts on the conservation area may arise from access requirements in

terms of visibility splays, removal of walls, and impact on trees.

For the same reasons these impacts would also detract from the setting of the listed

buildings adjacent and opposite as well as the wider setting of the adjacent Broadacres

and would end the visual connection between the Manor House Farm agricultural

buildings and the countryside. Allocation would not affect the setting of 31 Manor Road

or to some extent Ashill Lodge but would adversely affect the view towards Hatfields PH

which is a key view in the conservation area.


Allocation to the indicative densities would lead to substantial harm to the heritage

significance of the conservation. Densities commensurate with the adjacent properties

with landscaping and tree planting to the front are highly unlikely to be viable and in any

case would push back the countryside from the main road which is a key feature of the

conservation area.

Recommendation:

Site Allocation: 122 - Challenger Drive, Sprotbrough

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. The allocation site

abuts a Grade II nationally designated Park and Garden of Special Interest.


The site is seen beyond the boundary of the Park and Garden of Special Interest and is

currently agricultural which enhances the setting of the Park and Garden. There is a wide

expanse of treed border (Long Plantation) that shields most of the site.


The change from agricultural to residential has potential to have a negative impact as can

be seen to have happened with the adjoining development of Challenger Drive. The

latter’s houses and modern suburban boundaries are particularly intrusive on views from

the hall and its grounds.


The current woodland edge to the site should be utilised and expanded to help screen any

development. This woodland should not be incorporated/split into the gardens of

individual properties as it is likely that over time trees will be thinned and inappropriate

boundaries added – again reference to Challenger Drive development. The woodland

should act as a buffer to development behind. Potential for community woodland.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 123 - Torne Valley Farm, Sheep Bridge Lane, Rossington

Use: Housing


Part of the site extends into a Scheduled Monument (Roman vexillation fort). There are

no listed buildings within the site or within 250m of the allocation site and no

conservation areas or other heritage assets are affected. The listed buildings within Old

Rossington (including St Michael’s Church) are over 300m away and unaffected by the

alocation site.


The site is some distance away and concealed by bends in the main road so makes no

contribution to the significance of the listed buildings at the centre of Old Rossington.


The Scheduled Monument and the presence of Roman finds in the wider area suggests

that the likelihood of archaeological finds across the site is high. The archaeological

potential of the site is considered elsewhere. Scheduled Monument Consent or planning

permission is unlikely to be granted to develop that part of the site which extends into the

scheduled monument as it would lead to the partial loss of a heritage asset.


The area outside the Scheduled Monument with a suitable buffer may be considered

further subject to an archaeological evaluation.

Recommendation:


Allocation is likely to lead to some direct harm to the Scheduled Monument and its setting

but may be acceptable if any development is weighted to the south west half of the site.

Site Allocation: 133 - Land off St. Nicholas Road, Thorne

Use: Housing


Part of the site lies within Thorne Conservation Area, and as part of the appraisal of the

area it is recommended that most of the rest of the site be included into the conservation

area.


The present site is considered to make a positive contribution to the setting of the key

unlisted building of Thorne House by its green nature and open space. The site is also part

of a green wedge and forms an ‘oasis’ that goes through this site and the grounds of

Thorne House, the motte, the grounds of the Old Grammar School and the church and its

graveyards. There are also remnants of a stone wall to St. Nicholas Road.


The residential use of this land will change the green nature of the site that will have a

detrimental impact on the conservation area, especially the setting of Thorne House.


Potential tree and landscaping should be incorporated in to the development of the site if

allocated so as to still contribute to the green wedge through the area. A low density of

development would also assist with this. The reinstatement of the stone boundary wall

would also be expected.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 143 - Land North of Primary School, Church Lane, Barnburgh

Use: Housing


The site is paddocks to the south of Barnburgh. There are no above ground heritage

assets within the allocation site. It lies immediately to the south of Barnburgh

Conservation Area. 100m to the north lies the Grade I listed Church of St. Peters. There

are also six Grade II listed buildings within the 250 buffer zone.


The character of the conservation area Barnburgh is as a rural hilltop settlement that has

been surrounded with suburban developments from the twentieth century to the

southwest and north, although to the east, south and partially to the west is open

countryside.

Immediate to the north of the site is a band of trees that separates the site physically

from the conservation area. The open nature of the site however forms a distinct break

between the conservation area and the suburban developments to the south and west. In

addition from further afield, such as from Doncaster Road, the open countryside of the

allocation site makes a positive contribution to the setting of the Church of St Peter, and

which has a major contribution on the conservation area’s hilltop character.


Allocation of the site to residential use will harm the setting of the conservation area and

in particular views towards the Church of St Peter.


The setting of the conservation area and the Church of St Peter will be severely harmed

by the allocation of this land.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 155 - 'Site A', Leach Lane Industrial Estate, Mexborough



There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. Mexborough

Conservation Area lies to the north on the other side of a dual carriageway. The Grade II

listed Station lies approx. 100m to the south.


The site occupies an important corner site opposite the conservation area and on the

approach to the town centre from the listed station. Previously there were some

decorative brick industrial buildings but these have mostly been cleared.


The development of the site will change it from industrial to residential this potentially



There is great scope to improve the setting of the conservation area and the approach to

and from the station. The number of units may however need to be adjusted. There is

also scope to provide an attractive waterside frontage to the canal. Previous planning

permission under 10/02896/EXTM but not sure if this is still active.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 159 - Land around Wadworth

Use: Employment


The site is a large site proposed for employment allocation situated in between the

villages of Loversall, Wadworth, and the site of the former Rossington Colliery. There are

no above ground heritage assets within the site. Loversall conservation area and its listed

buildings include the grade 2* listed church, grade 2 listed Loversall Hall and the grade 2

listed dovecote in its former walled garden . Within the churchyard lies an early 14th

century Tomb Chest which is also Grade 2*. These are all within 250m of the site at its

northern extremity. The Wadworth conservation areas lies on elevated ground outside

the 250m buffer though a small part of the conservation area at Carr Lane comes within

this. The grade 1 listed Church of St. John the Baptist at Wadworth is 750m south of the

site but is in an elevated position and its square tower is prominent in the landscape

when approaching the village from the north.

The grade 1 listed Wadworth Hall is 680m south west of the site on elevated ground

above the site and its immediate garden and parkland setting is a park and garden of local

historic interest.

150m south of the site is the grade 2 listed Wellingley Farm and the separately grade 2

listed barn.


The site comprises agricultural fields which provides a rural character to the open land

separating the conservation areas mentioned above and which also provides the

agricultural context to the farmhouse and barn at Wellingley. This rural context is an

important component in the views to the church in Wadworth from along the main road

from Loversall and to some extent from the M18. Similarly, this context is important in

understanding the character of both conservation areas when viewed along the main

roads and M18.


Allocation as employment use in the western half of the area shown would remove the

rural context described above and undermine an important part of the heritage

significance of the Loversall and Wadworth conservation areas as historic limestone ridge

villages particularly through coalescing these settlements.

Allocation would also lead to some harm to the heritage significance of the grade 1 listed

Church of St. John the Baptist at Wadworth through removing the rural context which is

part of the view to the tower. There may be some localised harm to the character of

eastern end of Carr Lane in the Wadworth conservation area should large employment

buildings be constructed immediately east of the A1. The site is about 230m away from

the edge of Wadworth village outside the conservation area and would affect views east

although it would have less impact on views within the conservation area at the centre of

the village which are confined by buildings.

Allocation would not impact on Wadworth Hall though may affect views from first floor

windows. Its garden setting is inward looking and not affected by the allocation site.

Likewise, the setting of the listed buildings in Loversall is more restricted and confined by

tree lines and plantations so allocation is less likely to affect these.

Allocation of the southern part of the site would affect the landscape around Wellingley

Farm changing the agricultural character to the north which considering the flat landscape

the farm sits in would harm its setting.


Allocating the land between Loversall and Wadworth and the area to the north of

Wellingley would lead to harm to a number of heritage assets. This could be minimised if

the allocation could be reduced in size to omit these areas.

Recommendation:

Site Allocation: 161 - Mill Farm, Mill Gate, Bentley

Use: Housing


Bentley Mill located immediately east of the Mill Farm site is described as grade 2 listed

although this building is believed to have been demolished prior to the confirmation of

listing in 1986. There is no evidence on site of the mill as described in the listing.

Bentley Mill Farm has a number of vernacular agricultural buildings primarily to the east

of the site of varying quality and condition which do not have any formal heritage

designation. There are a number of historic limestone boundary walls within the site and

on the boundary. These are a reminder of the previous historic character of the area and

have may local heritage interest.

The grade 2 listed St Peters Church is approximately 190m west of the site separated from

it by an irregular field which is itself bounded by hedges and trees.

The grade 2 listed Bentley Pinfold is 160m north west of the site and separated by dense

housing development so this heritage asset is not affected.


The site would have been part of the setting of Bentley Mill. The east of the site contains

buildings and structure of a traditional character which are of local heritage significance.

The setting of the listed church is the immediate area of the High Street where it has a

strong presence where the spire can be seen as well as the adjacent hall and vicarage. The

green and open area surrounding the church also contributes to its setting as do the trees

which mark the rear boundary and to some extent the field beyond. The application site

makes no contribution to this.


As the mill has been demolished there is no impact on its heritage significance. Allocation

may lead to the demolition of surviving historic structures although these are likely to be

of lower heritage significance.

Allocating the site would not impact on the setting of the church or Pinfold.


Conversion of buildings and retention of limestone walls where possible or use of

traditional materials or forms in this part of the site.

Recommendation:


Further investigation would be recommended into the condition and heritage significance

of the extant Bentley Mill buildings.

Site Allocation: 171 - Land to North Side of High Street, Hatfield

Use: Housing



conservation area abuts the site immediately to the south.

There are 9 listed buildings within 250m of the site the most significant of which is the

grade 1 listed Church of St Lawrence with its prominent tower at the centre of the village

and 100m west of the site. Its boundary gates to the south are also grade 2 listed. The

grade 2 listed Travis School now the parish council rooms lies 100m west west of the

allocations site. The grade 2 listed 11/13 Station Road is 160m west of the site but is

physically and visually separated from it by the listed church and the trees within its

grounds.

The remaining 5 listed buildings are at some distance from the site or face the High Street.

Their settings are localised and would not be affected by the allocation.







the conservation area boundary, which is tightly drawn around buildings and their

curtilages, the lack of development in the fields north and south of the High Street

enables the enclosure fields to be perceived and prevents the historic layout of the

conservation area from being submerged. In addition, the presence of agricultural fields

close to and in places visible from main roads is a reminder of the former agricultural

character of Hatfield. The allocation site includes all the enclosure fields to the north of

the village and consequently makes an important contribution to the heritage significance

of the conservation area.

The allocation site includes 2 long thin projections which reach the main road frontage

(presumably for access) which would contribute to the character of the High Street.

The setting of the grade 1 listed church is characterised by a green and open character

arising from the trees and open spaces around the church and the countryside beyond

and the allocation site makes a small contribution to this.

There are views from the Travis School towards the north east of the site but its

significance is related to its historic interest and traditional construction. The allocation

site does not contribute to this. The site makes no contribution to the significance of the

remaining listed buildings.


The allocation site has an indicative number of 196 units and would give the whole of the

open area north of the High Street a suburban character. The historic legibility of the

village as described above would be reduced as will the perception of the countryside

reaching tight to the village edge.

The degree of harm may be exacerbated by the nature and location of any required

access particularly if this is from the High Street where it would affect the appearance of

the frontage and offer views of suburban development beyond.

There is some separation between the church and the allocation site provided by the

open space to the rear of the parish rooms, the vicarage development, and particularly by

the surrounding trees. The church tower is prominent in views approaching the village

from the M18 but allocating the site will not affect this or other significant views.







Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 185 - Land at Mill Lane and Crabgate, Skellow

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. The site lies next to

the Grade II listed Skellow Mill.


The present site is considered to make a positive contribution to the setting of the listed

mill both with the presence of trees and the green open space.


The residential use of this land will change the green nature of the site that will have a

detrimental impact on the setting of the mill.


Retention of open space near to mill and along roadside to Mill Lane/recreation of historic

field.

Recommendation:

Site Allocation: 189 - Higgins Agriculture Ltd, Old Bawtry Road, Finningley

Use: Housing


There are no listed buildings within the allocation site or within 250m of it and no listed

buildings would be affected by allocation. The site lies south of the Finningley

conservation area with the main part of the site separated from the conservation area by

dwellings on Old Bawtry Road that are generally well set back in long thin gardens. The

northern part of the site is adjacent to a country lane which opens to the green space on

Old Bawtry Road within the conservation area.


Though surrounded by higher density modern development the conservation area is

characterised by low-density housing, attractive historic buildings, a village green and

pond, and other areas of open space. The purpose of the conservation areas designation

is to preserved and enhance this character. The northern part of the site bounds a lane

departing from one of the open spaces and currently has a rural character. The western

edge of the site fronts the long straight and tree lined Old Bawtry Road which gives a long

view out of the conservation area which does not have the built up character prevalent

elsewhere in Finningley.


The allocation has potential to urbanise the view from the green space along the lane

mentioned above through the introduction of buildings and the upgrading of access to

modern requirements which would be detrimental to the character and appearance of

the conservation area. It would introduce more built up forms to Old Bawtry Road

altering the long view out of the conservation area.


Omitting the northern projection of the site would preserve the heritage significance of

the conservation area. The view out of the CA along Old Bawtry Road would not be

affected with the retention of a green edge and the setting back any buildings from the

frontage.

Recommendation:


Mitigation through reduction of the proposed area and a requirement for a green and

open frontage to Old Bawtry Road.

Site Allocation: 191 - West of New Mill Field Road and adj. Back Lane, Hatfield

Use: Housing



conservation area abuts the site immediately to the north where it is adjacent to Back

Lane.

There are 2 grade 2 listed buildings within 250m of the site. These are No.54 fronting the

High Street and its separately listed stable block on Back Lane. Some 370m to the west is

the grade 1 listed Manor House.







the conservation area boundary, which is drawn around buildings and their curtilages, the

lack of development in the fields north and south of the High Street enables the enclosure

fields to be perceived and prevents the historic character of the conservation area from

being submerged. The allocation site covers 2 enclosure fields south of the High Street

which contribute to the significance of the conservation area in this way. In addition, the

presence of agricultural fields close to and visible from Back Lane is a reminder of the

former agricultural character of Hatfield.


Street. The site makes some contribute to the wider setting of the barn off Back Lane in

that the northern hedge boundary contributes to the narrow unverged lane character of

Back Lane. The Manor Hall formerly had a large square curtilage which may have been a

moated site and from which there would be views of open countryside which includes the

allocation site. The presence of edge trees to the east of the Manor Hall curtails the view

out minimises any contribution the allocation site may make to its setting.


The allocation site has an indicative number of 50 units. Allocation would not affect the

setting of the the Manor Hall or no 58 High Street but would detract from the setting of

the listed barn by urbanising the character of Back Lane. The degree of harm may be

exacerbated by the nature and location of any required access.

The historic legibility of the village as described above would be reduced as will the

perception of the countryside reaching tight to the village edge particularly as it does in

the case of this allocation site. Access requirements may also alter the lane character of

Back Lane away from its narrow unverged character which is part of the character of the

conservation area. Allocation of sites into the enclosure belt south of the village would set

a precedent for adjacent strips and lead to substantial harm to the heritage significance of

the conservation area.







Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 198 - Land off North Ings Road, Hatfield

Use: Housing


There are no designated heritage assets within the site however the Hatfield –High Street

conservation area lies immediately to the south.

There are grade 2 listed buildings within 250m of the site which are no58 High Street and

the separately listed barn to the rear. The grade 1 listed Church of St Lawrence, with its

prominent tower at the centre of the village, is roughly 460m west of the site.







the conservation area boundary, which is tightly drawn around buildings and their

curtilages, the lack of development in the fields north and south of the High Street

enables the enclosure fields to be perceived and prevents the historic character of the

conservation area from being submerged. The allocation site is a single field within the

enclosure field system north of the High Street and contributes to the significance of the

conservation area in this way. In addition, the presence of agricultural fields close to and

in places visible from main roads is a reminder of the former agricultural character of

Hatfield. Due to its location the site is visible from Old Thorne Road as well as the High

Street.


Street (No.58) whose setting is localised and where its relationship to the High Street is

more important; or the barn at the back which is completely divorced from the allocation

site.

The setting of the grade 1 listed church is characterised by a green and open character

arising from the trees and open spaces around the church and the countryside beyond

and the allocation site makes a small and distant contribution to this.


The allocation site has an indicative number of 15 units and this would give this site a

suburban character which is at odds with the open character of the area north of the High

Street. The historic legibility of the village as described above would be incrementally

reduced as will the perception of the countryside reaching tight to the village edge. Whilst

in itself the allocation represents only one of the fields to the rear there is a wider

concern that it would set a precedent for the development of adjacent fields of a similar

character which would be detrimental to the heritage significance of conservation area.

The church tower is prominent in views approaching the village from the M18 but

allocating the site will not affect this or other significant views.







Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 202 - North of Long Lands Lane, West of Roman Rig, Woodlands

Use: Housing


Along the eastern edge of the site lies a Scheduled Monument (Roman Ridge) This

extends slightly further to the east and continues pass the site in a northwards direction.

There are no listed buildings or conservation areas within the allocation site although

Woodlands Conservation Area lies immediately southeast.


The Scheduled Monument appears to occupy a narrow strip along the eastern edge of the

site. The site would be seen in conjunction with the conservation area and would impact

on its setting.


Development close to the Scheduled Monument would impact on its setting as well as

potentially on the Scheduled Monument itself depending on its exact location. In addition

if any part does impact on the Scheduled Monument directly it will require Scheduled

Monument Consent from Historic England who may raise further concerns.

The proposal would need to respect the scale of developments in Woodlands

Conservation Area, but given it is on the opposite side would not need to be a copy of its

distinctive architecture (if this were to be done it would be likely to dilute it rather than

enhance it).


Sufficient buffer to the Scheduled Monument to protect it and its setting.

Development limited to two storeys.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 213 - Mill Lane, Warmsworth

Use: Housing


There are no above ground designated heritage assets within the allocation site. Across

the river Don from the northern extremity of the site is the grade 2 listed remains of

Sprotbrough Pump. North west of the site under 100m away is the grade 2 listed Bridge

crossing the River Don. 350m north west across the Don on high ground is the

Sprotbrough conservation area containing a number of listed buildings including the

grade 1 listed church and the grade 2 listed Sprotborough Hall Stable Block. The Don and

its steep banks and the canal cutting forms an attractive landscape feature which

contributes to local distinctiveness.


The setting of the Sprotbrough Pump is confined by its location on a stream within the

steep north bank woodland and the site does not contribute to this. The setting of the

listed bridge is much wider and the natural landscape either side of the river Don and the

canal basin contributes to this. Part of the site impinges on this setting. The conservation

area and its listed buildings are visually separated from the site and the site makes no

contribution to this where key views are focussed inwards towards the centre of the

conservation area. The church tower is prominent in the landscape and there are views of

the tower across the site from the direction of Warmsworth.


The site can be considered in 3 parts. That part east of the A1(M) is not likely to affect any

of the above heritage assets where it is visually separated from them by the A1(M)

viaduct. West of the A1(M) there is a footpath which runs west to east across the site

bounded by hedge and trees either side. To the north, the land slopes steeply downwards

towards the Don. Allocation of this land would urbanise the natural character of the Don

valley at this point and have some adverse impact on the setting listed bridge. This is an

attractive landscape with historic components but does not have formal historic

environment designation.

The bulk of the site is to the south where the land slopes gently southwards and levels out

towards Warmsworth. There will be some impact on views from the high ground across to

the church tower at Sprotbrough however it is not considered that this is sufficient harm

to merit refusal on heritage grounds. The allocation raises the issue of coalescing the

settlement of Warmsworth linked to the main urban area with Sprotbrough though this is

more of a Green Belt issue than heritage.

It would be difficult to object to the allocation on heritage grounds were the area north

of the above mentioned footpath removed from the allocation.


Recommendation:


Remove the area within the Don Gorge from the allocation

Site Allocation: 214 - Common Lane, Warmsworth

Use: Housing


There are no above ground designated heritage assets within the allocation site. Common

Lane extends into the Warmsworth conservation area 180m north of the site from which

it is separated by a playing field to one side of the lane and detached housing to the

other. 250m to the north of the allocation site are the grade 2 listed gatepiers to

Warmsworth Hall which leads to the grade 2* listed Warmsworth Hall itself. Adjacent to

the gates is the grade 2 listed 17th Century Bell Tower. The character of the Warmsworth

conservation area derives mainly from the rural and agricultural limestone buildings with

clay pantile/stone tile roofs and limestone walling set around Warmsworth Hall and its

grounds and confined between Warmsworth High Road and Low Road East/West.


The site makes no contribution to the setting of Warmsworth Hall. Common Lane is a

linear road cutting through the conservation area past the listed Bell Tower and there is a

long view down the narrow road towards the site giving the appearance of countryside

beyond which contributes to the character of the conservation area (and the setting of

the listed building). Near the Bell Tower this view is currently curtailed by the trees lining

each side of Common Lane though the view opens further on reaching the boundary of

the conservation area. The unverged lane, open space of the playing fields, trees, and the

set back building line of the dwellings opposite continue the idea of countryside beyond

which reinforces the former agricultural character of the conservation area.


Allocating the southern part of the site beyond the road bend would not impinge on the

heritage significance of the conservation area. There is a danger that allocating the

northern part of the site would urbanise this character to the detriment of the

conservation area. A further adverse impact would arise if Common Lane had to be

upgraded in the vicinity of the conservation area to support housing requirements and/or

if the tree belt were removed or reduced.


Harm could be avoided firstly by reducing the extent of the allocation to the southern

part of the site or away from the lane and retaining the tree belt and the unverged

character of the lane to the north. In addition, harm could be minimised through the

retention of trees either side of the lane. Access to the site should be from the south.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 215 - High Road, Warmsworth

Use: Housing


The allocation site consists of 3 agricultural fields bounded by limestone walls within the

Warmsworth Conservation Area. The conservation area is based on the historic core of

Warmsworth which was a linear village following Low Road West subsequently divided by

Warmsworth Hall. The character of the Warmsworth conservation area derives mainly

from the rural and agricultural limestone buildings with clay pantile/stone tile roofs and

limestone walling set around Warmsworth Hall and its grounds and confined between

Warmsworth High Road and Low Road East/West.

The allocation site includes the historic buildings and barns of West Farm one of which is

grade 2 listed.

Adjacent and overlooking the site is the grade 2 listed Warmsworth House. There are 5

other listed buildings within the conservation area including the grade 2* listed

Warmsworth Hall with its separately listed grade 2 east and west gates.


The fields to the west of the conservation area, the buildings of West Farm, and the stone

boundary walls within the allocation site serve as an important reminder of the rural past

of the area. They provide a visual break between the conservation area and the modern

developments to the north and west. They are therefore of high significance to the

character of the conservation area. The fields and the agricultural buildings are prominent

when viewed from the High Road which as the name suggests is elevated in relation to

them.

The fields contribute to the setting of the listed barn and West Farm generally in

understanding the agricultural character of the buildings. The listed Warmsworth House

and the adjacent stone barns are prominent in the view east along the road and over the

adjacent fields. These contribute to their setting. The contribution of the site to the other

listed buildings in the conservation area is negligible.


Allocating the whole site for housing (indicative number of dwellings – 50) would have a

significant negative impact on the character and appearance of the western half of the

conservation area enough to call into question its inclusion west of the farm buildings. It

would blur the legibility of this part of the conservation area as a historic area. It would

also harm the significance of the listed barn by removing its agricultural setting and harm

views across to the listed Warmsworth House and adjacent barns. The repair and

conversion of the listed barn and adjacent historic buildings ensuring long term use and

the survival of the limestone boundary features would be a positive outcome but would

this not be outweighed by the harm to the significance of the other heritage assets

resulting from the development of the fields.


Maintaining the buildings in agricultural use may not be sustainable given the location

and form of the buildings. One benefit of allocation is the potential to repair and convert

the historic buildings and structures on the site to ensure their long term conservation.

However, with the full allocation of the site this would not outweigh the harm to the

heritage assets affected.

Some encroachment into the agricultural fields as enabling development may be in the

interest of the heritage assets provided the historic buildings were sympathetically

converted, new dwellings complemented the form and scale of the agricultural buildings,

sufficient open space were retained to preserve the character of the conservation area,

and views to the listed buildings were taken into account.

Recommendation:


The allocation of the whole site as put forward for the local plan would result in

substantial harm to the significance of the above heritage assets.

Site Allocation: 217 - Back Lane, Cusworth

Use: Housing


The site lies within a Park and Garden of Local Historic Interest. It is an agricultural field

that lies opposite the Grade II listed gatehouse which marks the historic main access to

Grade I Cusworth Hall. The grounds of Cusworth Hall are also nationally designated as a

Grade II listed Park and Garden of Special Interest and also lie within Cusworth

Conservation Area.


The allocation site is part of a Park and Garden of Local Historic Interest. It was called

Avenue Field and lies between the gatehouse and Long Plantation which screened the

neighbouring Scawsby Hall estate from view. Avenue Field was clearly marked as part of

the parklands of Cusworth Hall in the mid-late 19th century and was part of the expansion

to become a ‘sporting estate’. The field is believed to have been paddocks for horses

which enhanced the pastoral view and show off the status of the owners. It was also a key

view from the Hall particular apparent from the master’s bedroom on the first floor of

Cusworth Hall. It thus contributes to the Park and Garden of Local Historic Interest as well

as the setting of the nationally designated Park and Garden of Special Interest, the Grade I

Listed Cusworth Hall, and the conservation area.


Allocation of the site to residential use will harm the Park and Garden of Local Historic

Interest and the setting of the nationally designated Park and Garden of Special Interest,

the Grade I Listed Cusworth Hall, and the conservation area.


The Park and Garden of Local Historic Interest and the setting of: - the nationally

designated Park and Garden of Special Interest; the Grade I Listed Cusworth Hall; and the

conservation area will all be severely compromised by the allocation of this land.

Recommendation:


Site Allocation: 220 - Garage off Sheffield Road / Clifton Hill, Conisbrough (Site A)

Use: Housing


There are no above ground heritage assets within the allocation site. The site lies opposite

Conisbrough Conservation Area. The Grade II listed Red Lion PH lies approx. 100m

southwest of the site although due to trees and the topography the allocation is not

considered to significantly impact on the setting of the latter although this is dependent

on what happens with the neighbouring allocation site 221.


The site occupies an important corner site opposite the conservation area. It current has a

negative impact on it due to its industrial appearance.


The development of the site will change it from industrial to residential which potentially



The site has potential to be seen as a key landmark site near the entrance of the

conservation area, and the design/layout would be expected to enhance the setting of the

conservation area. The number of units may however need to be adjusted.
