Respondent: King's Lynn Mountain Bike Club
On behalf of Kings Lynn MTB a Mountain Bike club with around 100 club members that regularly use Shouldham Warren, we would like to put in our objection to the 'silica sand mining taking place in the area of AOS and its surroundings' as proposed in the Norfolk County Council Mineral & Waste Local Plan, Preferred Options July 2019.
Shouldham Warren is not only used by our club members, with ages ranging from 5 to 70+, who meet regularly every Tuesday and Thursday evening but also by 100's of other cyclist who enjoy the Warren for social riding and for racing, these riders come from all over the country, such is the attraction of Shouldham Warren, for the cyclists it is a welcome challenge with its unique terrain within East Anglia. It would be a devastating loss to cyclists both young and old who are currently able to enjoy the countryside and tracks at the Warren on 2 wheels without the threat of cars and other road traffic. There are no other areas like this in West Norfolk with the established cycle trails that are available here. Surely, in an ever increasing age of obesity and along with the current climate crisis/global warming to take away this long established woodlands which are enjoyed by so many would be a disgrace.
The proposed destruction of this woodland which will never, in our lifetime, be replaced is something that the council should consider seriously.
"Our environment is our most precious inheritance," says DEFRA, so we all urge Norfolk County Council to not allocate the woodlands and agricultural farmland in AOS E and remove AOS E from the Mineral & Waste Local Plan.

I wish to register an objection to the proposed change to the County Plan regarding mineral extraction in the area around Tottenhill, Wormegay and Shouldham, especially MIN 206 and AOSs E, F, J and I. I live locally and these developments would affect me.
1) This area already has substantial extraction ongoing in the area between Tottenhill and Watlington which has caused loss of vegetation, farmland and tree cover. The new proposals, especially AOS E, involve destroying ancient woodlands and a much-used leisure area. The existing works have negatively affected the local (Tottenhill Row/Tottenhill) water table and the proposed increased works will almost certainly have an increased impact here and in their locality, eg Tottenhill, Shouldham, Wormegay. MIN76 has already recently been approved, for 285,000 tonnes of sand and gravel extraction, which will add to existing traffic etc pressures.
2) Restoration after the extraction has finished will obviously be some years ahead; it must be questionable whether the extraction company/ies can be relied on to do the restoration work ten or twenty years ahead, especially as the proposed areas are so extensive. Any restoration will obviously be new, and not replace ancient woodlands, archaeology etc.
3) Even if "wet" extraction methods are used, there will be large areas of un-vegetated land exposed after the top cover is removed; this will unavoidably dry out and be blown around causing dust problems over the local area. The 250m limit for dust impact is unrealistic given the relatively open aspect of the area. which will become more open as tree cover is destroyed.
4) The transport infrastructure in this part of Norfolk is not well developed; there is no railway link and no dual carriageway road access. All extracted sand, gravel etc will be removed by road, on single-carriageway roads, with several accident blackspots (A134/A10 roundabout, A10 Whin Common Road junction at Tottenhill, A134 Wormegay School, A10/Thieves Bridge Road junction which has had at least two crashes in recent weeks, A134 Stradsett Junction in the immediate area).
This is the only access for all sites involved except AOS E, but public road access is also given as a potential choice for AOS E.
5) There is no obvious benefit for the local community, for example for employment, as there are likely to few jobs created with modern mechanised extraction methods. Transporting the product is likely to be carried out by existing firms, many of which will be national; even if local it is unlikely that any new jobs would result.

I object to silica sand mining taking place in the area of Area Of Search (AOS) E and its surroundings as proposed in the Norfolk County Council Mineral & Waste Local Plan, Preferred Options July 2019. It is used for outdoor exercise by 1000s of people; young and old. The loss of long-established woodlands would be devastating for mental health and physical well-being. It would be a disaster for the biodiversity of flora and fauna supported by that ecosystem. The destruction of woodland, never to be restored, is unacceptable at a time when Govt's policy (Clean Growth Strategy) is to increase the number of trees in the UK - "Establish a new network of forests in England... plant 11 million trees". We are facing a Climate Crisis. Shouldham Warren is one of our precious planet's lungs, capturing 11,000 tonnes of C02 per year. The Warren provides clean air, home to precious biodiversity, valuable educational space for children and a recreational area well used by so many people. The lack of an improved glass recycling plan to increase the amount of glass cullet available to UK glass manufacturers makes further quarrying for silica sand at the current rate morally wrong. Our environment is our most precious inheritance," says DEFRA, so I urge Norfolk County Council to not allocate the woodlands and agricultural farmland in AOS E and remove AOS E from the Mineral & Waste Local Plan. I also object to quarrying in SIL 02. It is false of Norfolk County Council to say SIL02 has not been allocated whilst retaining 1/3 of the area in Area Of Search, AOS E. It has known mineral deposits, there is a willing landowner, that defines a preferred area. MOD (DIO) objected to the WHOLE of SIL02, I demand that NCC removes this overlap area from their M&WLP.

I object to silica sand mining taking place in the area of Area Of Search (AOS) E and its surroundings as proposed in the Norfolk County Council Mineral & Waste Local Plan, Preferred Options July 2019. It is used for outdoor exercise by 1000s of people; young and old. The loss of long-established woodlands would be devastating for mental health and physical well-being. It would be a disaster for the biodiversity of flora and fauna supported by that ecosystem. The destruction of woodland, never to be restored, is unacceptable at a time when Govt's policy (Clean Growth Strategy) is to increase the number of trees in the UK - "Establish a new network of forests in England... plant 11 million trees".

I have been going to this wood with my family since I was born, i now enjoy going with my own family. There have been many changes but the forest has always been an enjoyable escape from life to see nature at it's best. And best of all it's free unlike many places
Please keep this as a forest not yet another empty lake

The area at Shoulham Warren is a well loved outdoor, natural area where many people get good quality exercise in fresh air and beautiful surroundings. In this day of heightened awareness regarding environmental emergency, it would be criminal to destroy such a well loved and used area of thousands of trees, destroying wildlife habitat in the process.

The lack of an improved glass recycling plan to increase the amount of glass cullet available to UK glass manufacturers makes further quarrying for silica sand at the current rate morally wrong. Our environment is our most precious inheritance," says DEFRA, so I urge Norfolk County Council to not allocate the woodlands and agricultural farmland in AOS E and remove AOS E from the Mineral & Waste Local Plan. I also object to quarrying in SIL 02. It is false of Norfolk County Council to say SIL02 has not been allocated whilst retaining 1/3 of the area in Area Of Search, AOS E. It has known mineral deposits, there is a willing landowner, that defines a preferred area. MOD (DIO) objected to the WHOLE of SIL02, I demand that NCC removes this overlap area from their M&WLP.

I object to silica sand mining taking place in the area of Area Of Search (AOS) E and its surroundings as proposed in the Norfolk County Council Mineral & Waste Local Plan, Preferred Options July 2019. It is used for outdoor exercise by 1000s of people; young and old. The loss of long-established woodlands would be devastating for mental health and physical well-being. It would be a disaster for the biodiversity of flora and fauna supported by that ecosystem. The destruction of woodland, never to be restored, is unacceptable at a time when Govt's policy (Clean Growth Strategy) is to increase the number of trees in the UK - "Establish a new network of forests in England... plant 11 million trees".
