  • Some Elements of the Landscape History of the Five 'Low Villages'
    Some elements of the Landscape History of the five ‘Low Villages’, North Lincolnshire. Richard Clarke. Some elements of the landscape history of the five ‘Low Villages’, north Lincolnshire. The following twelve short articles were written for the Low Villages monthly magazine in 2014 and 2015. Part One was the first, and so on. In presenting all 12 as one file certain formatting problems were encountered, particularly with Parts two and three. Part One. Middlegate follows the configuration of the upper scarp slope of the chalk escarpment from the top of the ascent in S. Ferriby to Elsham Hill, from where a direct south-east route, independent of contours, crosses the ‘Barnetby Gap’ to Melton Ross. The angled ascent in S. Ferriby to the western end of the modern chalk Quarry is at a gradient of 1:33 and from thereon Middlegate winds south through the parishes of Horkstow, Saxby, Bonby and Worlaby following the undulations in the landscape at about ten meters below the highest point of the scarp slope. Therefore the route affords panoramic views west and north-west but not across the landscape of the dip slope to the east. Cameron 1 considered the prefix middle to derive from the Old English ‘middel’ and gate from the Old Norse ‘gata’ meaning a way, path or road. From the 6th and 7th centuries Old English (Anglo-Saxon) terms would have mixed with the Romano-British language, Old Norse (Viking) from the 9 th century. However Middlegate had existed as a route-way long before these terms could have been applied, it being thought to have been a Celtic highway, possibly even Neolithic and thus dating back five millennia.

  • Bonby Parish Council Minutes of the Parish Council Meeting
    Bonby Parish Council Minutes of the Parish Council Meeting Minutes of the meeting of Bonby Parish Council held at 7pm on Monday 4th March 2019, at the Village Hall, Bonby. Present: Chair – Cllr Sarah Harriman. Cllr Catherine Bishop, Cllr Anna Burbage, Clerk – Holly Hanson Cllr Carl Sherwood. Kamen Kalchev – Environment Agency, Cllr Don Barker – Worlaby, Cllr Peter Jones – Worlaby, Cllr Ken Bates – Saxby-All-Saints, Cllr Bruce Rowles – Horkstow 1 Member of the public Public Participation Kamen Kalchev attended the meeting to engage with the Parish Council and address Councillors concerns regarding the potential lengthy closure of the A1077 during the proposed Humber Bank flood protection works. Following consultations with the wider community, the Environment Agency realised that lengthy road closures are likely to sever the livelihoods of the community and are actively looking at measures to reduce the length of road closures and mitigate the impact of any necessary closures. Councillors from all the Low Villages in attendance voiced their concerns and raised questions around the proposed works. Kamen Kalchev answered questions as they were raised, and discussed various potential solutions, but advised that they would not be able to reach a definitive solution until after planning permission had been granted and the Contractor formally engaged. It is likely that a condition will be placed on any planning permission granted to ensure that the Environment Agency work with both highways and the community to reach an acceptable solution, prior to any works commencing. 18/19-0301 Apologies Cllr Denise Peachey, Cllr Nik Smith, and Cllr Tracie Green 18/19-0302 Declaration of Interest None.

  • Barton-Upon-Humber
    Local history Out and about around Barton-upon-Humber Trevor Osgerby arton-upon-Humber is a small Holy Trinity Church, Barrow-on-Humber Bhistoric town situated on the south bank of the River Humber, in the old north Lincolnshire area of Lindsey. It is almost opposite the large city and port of Kingston-upon-Hull. The name is derived from ‘Beretun’, which meant ‘Barley Town’, a tribute to its importance in the supply and trading of barley malt, the basis of beer brewing. Indeed, there was a time in the early Middle Ages when Barton was far more important than Hull, supplying more ships and men for the king’s service. But after Edward I conferred his royal favour on Hull in the late 13th century, Barton steadily lost its pre-eminence on the Humber, although it remained an important base for river trade and ferries. My own connection with Barton is that my father’s family comes from there and it is practically the only area where they don’t think my surname is strange or ask how to spell it! The most obvious sign of the early Brocklesby Station importance of Barton for the visitor is that the town has two splendid ancient churches, which stand remarkably close to each other. The older of the two is St Peter’s, which has a Saxon tower and was founded about 900 A.D. The land on which the church stands was originally part of the holdings of St Chad’s monastery, which was transferred to Bardney Abbey in south Lincolnshire after the Norman Conquest.

Also, paragraph 98 informs local planning authorities of the factors which should be used to assess applications. North Lincolnshire Local Plan: Policy DS1 (General Requirements) requires a high standard of design for all new developments. Policy DS21 (Renewable Energy) states that the generation of energy from renewable sources will be permitted provided that: • any detrimental effect on features and interests of acknowledged importance, including local character and amenity, is outweighed by environmental benefits; and • proposals include details of associated developments, including access roads and other ancillary buildings, and their likely impact on the environment. Policy RD2 (Development in the Open Countryside) also applies. Planning Committee 13 March 2013 Page 18 SPD (Planning for Renewable Energy) provides detailed guidance on renewable energy and sets out the criteria against which wind turbines will be judged.
