• •


Flat or gently rolling arable landscape of clay soils dissected by small river valleys


Field pattern of ancient enclosure – random patterns in the south but often co- axial in the north. Small patches of straight-edged fields associated with the late enclosure of woods and greens





• •


Dispersed settlement pattern of loosely clustered villages, hamlets and isolated farmsteads of medieval origin


Villages often associated with medieval greens or tyes


Farmstead buildings are predominantly timber-framed, the houses colour- washed and the barns blackened with tar. Roofs are frequently tiled, though thatched houses can be locally significant





• •





Scattered ancient woodland parcels containing a mix of oak, lime, cherry, hazel, hornbeam, ash and holly


Hedges of hawthorn and elm with oak, ash and field maple as hedgerow trees.


Substantial open areas created for WWII airfields and by 20th century agricultural changes


Network of winding lanes and paths often associated with hedges create visual intimacy


127. The onshore cable route in this section passes through a short section of Rolling Estate Farmlands LCT (approximately 0.5km) before crossing through the Valley Meadowlands LCT (approximately 0.75km) and entering the Rolling Valley Farmlands LCT. The route continues through the Rolling Valley Farmlands LCT for approximately 1.5km and then alternates between Rolling Valley Farmlands LCT and Ancient Plateau Claylands LCT for a further 1km before reaching the converter station which is located in the Ancient Plateau Claylands LCT. This is illustrated in Figure x.


128. The landscape topography is more complex to the east as it passes from the transitional edge of the Rolling Valley Farmland into the more intimate River Gipping valley and then into the undulating valley sides, before reaching the relatively simple plateau in the west.


129. The land use pattern, although predominantly agricultural, also reflects the complexity of the topography. Large fields to the immediate west of the A14 give way to smaller scale fields interspersed with woodland as the landscape falls
