Abstract: |
This HIA Supplement relates to proposals for further holiday lodges at Hall Wood, Pelynt, near Looe, Cornwall. The lodges would be similar to those included in a forthcoming, larger-scale development of lodges in the Hall Wood property, on the opposite side of the valley, recently accorded planning consent following an HIA (Parkes 2017), which provides additional detailed identification and analysis of the wood's heritage resource, including comment on its wider context and landscape. The site, covered in ancient woodland or plantation, lies in a small steep-sided tributary valley, on the west of the West Looe River which runs to Looe on the south coast. The landscape intersected by the river system is rural, undulating, and well-wooded. A prehistoric fort, Hall Rings, extends over much of the back of a ridge adjoining Hall Wood on the east. This is a Scheduled Monument (SM) and an HIA was initially required by the Local Planning Authority and Historic England to assess potential impacts of the scheme on the SM together with the wider heritage resource. The three areas now proposed for new lodges run in a series along the north west-facing side of the stream valley, that is, the side nearest to, and below, the Hall Rings SM. The HIA supplement shows that the development would have limited effect on the setting of the SM, and identifies options for avoiding or reducing this further, including partial watching brief, and careful adjustment and implementation of planned forestry works. |
