Parish Data: Cold Higham
The purpose of the data in this paper is to provide a picture of what your Parish is like
now so that you can begin to use the information to consider what you would like your
Parish to be like in 15/20 years.
This profile is provided to offer a range of background information that might be useful
during the rural settlement planning process that is being carried out to support the
preparation of the South Northamptonshire Settlements and Development
Management Local Plan.
The information contained within this profile has been sourced and developed from the
2001 and 2011 censuses. A map attached at Appendix B defines the boundary of the
Parish to which the census data relates. Whilst not all of the information may be
required for the purpose of this exercise, it was thought helpful to ensure that a
comprehensive range of background information is available to Parish Councils
1
.
Policy R1 of the Joint Core Strategy which will provide the framework for the planning
of rural areas and settlements within this Local Plan aims to ensure that the scale of
the future development of rural settlements is consistent with the objective of meeting
local needs and supporting local services
2
. It is therefore important to consider what
your Parish is like now and what needs it has for the future.

of December with the publication of the proposed modifications to the Joint Core Strategy.

Housing Type and Mix
It is important that rural communities have a mixed housing stock. There is a clear link
between the type and size of dwelling in an area and the mix and age range of
population. The most vibrant villages are likely to have a good mix of dwellings and
therefore a more balanced population in terms of age range One way of monitoring
this is to look at the number of bedrooms that properties have, the other is to look at
the housing mix by type of property, ie. the proportion of flats and dwellings that are
terraced, semi-detached or detached.
Number of Bedrooms

This gives an indication of the number of bedrooms in each property within the village
and the resulting housing mix.

Housing Development – Completions and commitments at 1
st
April 2013
There may be housing development within the Parish that already has planning
permission or that is allocated in the Joint Core Strategy or a Masterplan
3
but that is
yet to be completed. Appendix 1 sets out the number of commitments within the parish.
Appendix 1 also sets out a breakdown of the number of dwellings that have been
completed in the Parish between 2001 and April 2013 (the beginning of the Plan
period). This information is based upon that recorded by the Council and is based
upon planning and building control information.
House prices in Cold Higham
The average price of property sold in Cold Higham in the past 5 years
4

3. Social Indicators
a. Accessibility and Car ownership
Accessibility and the lack of public transport are recognised as potential issues
within rural areas. Typically in many rural areas the number of households with
cars within the Parish has increased since 2001. There is generally a higher
number of households with cars in rural areas than in the District overall. There
has also been an increase in the number of properties with 2 or more vehicles.

4. Employment
Rural employment is important as the villages within South Northamptonshire are
increasingly becoming dormitory villages where the majority of people commute out of
the village to work. The Council is seeking to encourage growth and development that
will benefit the District and meet the targets for housing and employment set within the
Joint Core Strategy whilst at the same time preserving the special character of the
villages and wider rural area.
The data below helps to provide a picture of employment availability within the Parish.

Claimant count with rates and proportions (ONS/ Nomis)
At any given time there will be a certain proportion of the working age population who
will be out of work. The Job Seekers Allowance claimant count provides a timely
snapshot of the proportion of the resident working age population who are currently in
receipt of this out of work benefit. However there may also be others seeking work
who are not entitled to claim or choose not to. Within the Danvers and Wardoun Ward
there were 15 job seeker claimants in June 2013. This figure has changed over the
past 8 years as follows:

Appendix 1
How many additional dwellings are needed in Cold Higham Parish?
Government policy as set out in the National Planning Policy Framework seeks to
increase significantly the supply of new housing and sets out the requirement for Local
Plans to meet the objectively assessed need for new homes “unless the adverse
impacts of doing so would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits”.
The JCS will set the total minimum number of dwellings required for the urban and
rural areas of South Northamptonshire and will show how the agreed housing targets
will be delivered through the Plan period. This overall target is based on a calculation
of an ‘objectively assessed housing need’ that takes account of both the latest Office
of National Statistics (ONS) household projections and the 2011 Census results.
Having derived this housing need the next step was to develop realistic options about
how this requirement could be met. For the Joint Core Strategy this included
consideration of evidence such as the availability of sites taking account of
deliverability, viability and constraints.
An important part of the Local Plan will be to distribute the housing growth set out in
the JCS across the District. One way of considering how many houses should be
provided in a particular village could be to take the overall requirement for housing in
the rural areas and proportion this by village in relation to their existing number of
dwellings. Effectively this would give the ‘objectively assessed housing need’ for each
settlement area. This proportion could then be increased or decreased by
consideration of factors including:
• What is the existing housing mix within a village?
• What is the identified affordable housing need?
• what are the individual aspirations for each village for growth to assist in the
supporting local infrastructure, services and facilities or to seeking to reduce out
commuting to work?
• what level of development has previously been achieved?
• what sites are deliverable - suitable, available now, achievable and viable?
• what local environmental designations exist?
• What is the existing ability of a village to support additional housing in relation to
local facilities and transport links?
• What is the role of the settlement?
Appendix 1 sets out the numbers this would involve based on the current Core
Strategy figures. The assumption has been made that the rural part of the District has
23428 dwellings (data from the 2001 Census) and that the Joint Core Strategy
requires 3605 new dwellings in the rural area between 2001 and 2006. This gives a
15.5% increase in the number of dwellings in the rural area. The extract from the table
below sets out the housing numbers that would be required in Cold Higham before any
consideration of the issues set out above. However it needs to be stressed that this is
only a worked example and the final figure is likely to change as a result of changes to
the figures in the Joint Core Strategy. The Issues Paper asks for comments on this
approach. A copy of the table as it relates to all the villages within the District can be
found in Appendix 1.

Assumes that the rural part of the District has 23428 dwellings (data from 2001 census) and that the
JCS requires 3605 new dwellings in the rural area between 2001 & 2026. This gives a 15.5% increase
in the number of dwellings in the rural area. The data for completions and commitments is up to 31st
March 2013. Table excludes 17 dwellings at Bugbrooke, 220 at Silverstone and 35 at Kings Sutton that
are subject to High Court Challenge and approximately 425 dwellings allocated for residential
development in the Roade Masterplan.
