MIN 209 - land adjacent to the A143, Earsham (Extension Area 1)
Representation ID: 98346
Received: 29/10/2019
Respondent: Earsham Estate
Agent: Fenn Wright
BACKGROUND
Gravel extraction has taken place on the Earsham Estate since the 1970's, originally in Earsham Pit and since the late 1990's in Pheasants Walk Pit.
The income from the gravel extraction forms a significant part of the Estate's business. During the last 40 years all surplus Estate income primarily provided from gravel royalties has been invested back into the Estate to include:
Park Farm:
2,500 tonne grain store; Store barn; Workshop; Farmhouse refurbishment; Conversion of traditional buildings to Park Farm Industrial Units; Cottage improvements.
Hall Farm:
Cottage improvements; Restoring traditional farm buildings; Farmhouse improvements.
Camphill Farm:
Farmhouse improvements; Restoring traditional farm buildings (part now micro-brewery).
Residential:
Cottage improvements to over 20 properties.
Woodlands:
Implementation of Woodland Management Plan providing full and part time employment of woodsmen and local contractors.
The extraction of gravel on the Estate has led to the loss of a modest amount of agricultural land, but spread over many decades. The land has been taken out of agricultural tenancies, but the tenants have had the benefit of reinvestment into their holdings.
The investment which has taken place over the last 40 years, of which a significant amount would not have been possible without the benefit of gravel, has generated work for many local tradespersons and businesses.
The Earsham Estate has 24 residential properties which are all let to local persons. There is a strong likelihood that had income not been derived from gravel historically many of these residential properties would have been sold.
The total estimated employment both direct and indirect based on the Earsham Estate is equivalent to approximately 142 persons (excluding Earsham Gravel) as set out below:
Earsham Estate; Earsham Farming Tenants; Park Farm Industrial Units; Wood Yard; Eastern County Mobile Saw Mill Services; Flint Vineyard; Ampersand Brewery; Tubes Scaffolding.
The restoration of Earsham Pit to water with low key leisure uses and Pheasants Walk Pit primarily to conservation has considerably more benefits than the original relatively poor agricultural land.
The proposed three sites link up to the existing former areas of extraction providing a combination of land uses from conservation to leisure.
Earsham over the last 10 years is now becoming a potential tourist destination with a number of successful businesses including:
Earsham Hall Events; Earsham Hall Showrooms; Earsham Hall Tea Rooms; Flint Vineyard; Ampersand Brewery; Earsham Wetland Centre; Fen Farm Dairy Shop; Park Farm Earsham Self Catering Apartments; Earsham Queens Head Pub; Norfolk and Suffolk Aviation Centre.
There is the opportunity in the future to develop further businesses on Earsham Estate which would have the benefit of attracting both tourism and generating more local employment.
