The Friends of Quantock is applying to the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs for consent under section 38 of the Commons Act 2006 to carry out restricted works on Quantock Common CL 10. The Planning Inspectorate will decide the application on behalf of the Secretary of State.
The proposed works are:
Construction of a shallow bank and ditch to prevent illegal parking along the east side of the Crowcombe Stowey road. The structure will be approximately 1m wide, ~20 cm deep at the deepest point, topped with a 10 - 15cm small bank made of spoil on the side away from the road. The steeper side, topped with the small bank for visibility and durability, will face towards the road to prevent vehicle access and the shallower side will face away from the road to allow a car that has inadvertently driven in to back out. Details will vary according to the exact terrain. Total length of proposed works is 347m in 12 sections along approx. 1800m of roadside. The overall line is crossed by one Public Right of Way bridleway where a 2m gap will be left.
