considered to be “negligible” in magnitude, and the potential effect upon
the setting of the church is therefore assessed as “not significant”.
10.79 LB335842 Church of St Peter and St Paul, Todwick, Grade II*. The church
is located within the southeastern part of Todwick, approximately 3.6km to
the southeast of the closest turbine. The setting of the church is defined as
its position within the churchyard, which is bordered by mature trees. The
churchyard is surrounded by residential properties. This setting is not
considered to be changed by the proposed development (an effect of
“negligible” magnitude) and the potential effect is therefore assessed as
“not significant”.
10.80 LB335853 Church of St John, Wales, Grade II*. The church is located
approximately 4.2km south of the nearest turbine, on the eastern side of
the M1, on the southern edge of Wales. The setting of the Church is
defined as its place within its churchyard, and its relationship to the village
as a whole. This not considered to be changed by the Development (an
effect of “negligible” magnitude), which is unlikely to have any substantial
intervisibility with the Church, due to intervening structures, and tree cover
within the churchyard. The effect upon the setting of the church is
therefore assessed as “not significant”.
10.81 LB335876 Church of All Saints, Aston, Grade I. The church is located in
the northern part of Aston, approximately 1.7km south of the southernmost
turbine. The church is set within a small churchyard, on the edge of the
village. Its immediate environs contains many mature trees, there are
buildings in close proximity to south and west, and beyond a minor road to
the north. The entrance to the church faces south. The church‟s immediate
setting and historic association with the village is not considered to be
affected by the proposed development (and effect of “negligible”
magnitude), and the presence of mature tree cover and buildings close to
it limit the availability of long views towards the church. Taking the above
into account, the potential effect of the proposed wind farm upon the
church‟s setting is assessed as “not significant”.
10.82 LB335896 Aughton Court, Aughton, Grade II*. The Building is located
approximately 1.8km west of the proposed development, in the northern
part of Aughton. Its setting is defined by its location within the village, at
the junction of the A618 and B6067, with residential properties to its north
and east (between it and the development). This setting is not considered
to be affected by the proposed wind farm (an effect of “negligible”
magnitude), and views towards the building can only be obtained from
along the roads (where vegetation permits) and the turbines will not
feature in these. The potential effect upon the setting of the court is
therefore assessed as “not significant”.
10.83 LB335901 Hellaby Hall, Hellaby, Grade II*. The hall lies approximately
4.7km northeast of the closest turbine, north-east of Junction 2 on the
M18. The Scheduled remains of a medieval settlement lie in close
proximity. It is currently used as a hotel and its setting is defined by this
