Much inclosure of Common Land, Open Fields and Moor Land (or Waste), formerly farmed collectively by the residents on behalf of the Lord of the Manor, had taken place by the 18th century, but the uplands of County Durham remained largely unenclosed. Inclosures, to consolidate land-holdings, divide the land (into Allotments) and fence it off from other usage, could be made under a Private Act of Parliament or by general agreement of the landowners concerned. In the latter case the Agreement would be Enrolled as a Decree at the Court of Chancery in Durham and/or lodged with the Clerk of the Peace, the senior government officer in the County, so may be preserved in Quarter Sessions records. In the case of Parliamentary Enclosure a Local Bill would be put before Parliament which would pass it into law as an Inclosure Act. The Acts appointed Commissioners to survey the area concerned and determine its distribution as a published Inclosure Award.

  • County Durham | DH9 8PL CROFTS EDGE
    Crofts Edge Loud Hill | Greencroft | County Durham | DH9 8PL CROFTS EDGE Crofts Edge began life as part of a historic range of farm buildings which are believed to date back to the 19th century and were transformed in the 21st century to create an amazing detached country home offering over 4,400 sq feet of living space presented over two floors. When viewing this stunning stone built home you will see the influence of the Mediterranean in the property’s design with tiling and skirting boards running through the ground floor. It is our view that this spacious home will appeal to those seeking a family home in a rural setting or would be a great place for retirement, with bedrooms at both ground and first floor levels. You approach the property along a private lane which is shared with three other properties, with Crofts Edge having its own area of formal garden, extensive parking, integral double garage with a loft room over and a small grass field. From its rural location, situated between Stanley and Consett, the property is well placed for access to Newcastle and Durham as well as main road and rail connections. The North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is also within easy reach as is the Northumberland National Park, Kielder Forest and Observatory and the fabulous Northumberland coastline with its many castles and sandy beaches. Walking through an arched timber gate, a flagged pathway leads to the front entrance of Crofts Edge where you enter a hallway giving access to the cloakroom and integral double garage.

  • Cabinet 6 February 2019 School Admission Arrangements Academic
    Cabinet 6 February 2019 School Admission Arrangements Academic Year 2020/21 Report of Corporate Management Team Margaret Whellans, Corporate Director, Children and Young People's Services Councillor Olwyn Gunn, Portfolio Holder for Children and Young People’s Services Electoral division(s) affected: Countywide Purpose of the Report 1 The purpose of this report is to ask Cabinet to consider and approve the proposed admission arrangements and oversubscription criteria for Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools for the 2020/21 academic year. Executive summary 2 There is a proposed additional criterion to the current oversubscription criteria for admission to Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools. The Government wishes admission authorities to introduce oversubscription criteria to give children who were previously in state care outside of England, and have ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted, second highest priority for admission into school. This is because the Government believes such children are vulnerable and may have experienced abuse and neglect prior to being adopted. 3 Consultation has been carried out with schools, other admission authorities, Governing Bodies and parents on the council's admission arrangements in accordance with the national School Admissions Code as it is 7 years since they were last consulted on. Recommendation 4 Cabinet is asked to agree the proposed oversubscription criteria for admission to Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools; and to agree the following in respect of Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools, when determining the admission arrangements for 2020/21: (i) That the proposed admission numbers as recommended in Appendix 2 be approved. (ii) That the admission arrangements at Appendix 3 be approved.

Moreover it is our will that each year for all time in the cathedral church of Durham on the twenty-seventh day of January, solemn rites of the dead shall be held, together with mass on the following day, for the souls of our dearest ancestors and of all the founders and benefactors of the ancient convent of Durham, to which shall be summoned the dean, all the canons, and the rest of the ministers, scholars and poor men. Cap. 34 of Queen Mary’s Statutes of Durham Cathedral, 1554 Translated by Canon Dr David Hunt, March 2014 2 Welcome Welcome to the annual commemoration of Founders and Benefactors. This service gives us an opportunity to celebrate those whose generosity in the past has enriched the lives of Durham’s great institutions today and to look forward to a future that is full of opportunity. On 27 January 1914, the then Dean, Herbert Hensley Henson, revived the Commemoration of Founders and Benefactors. It had been written into the Cathedral Statutes of 1554 but for whatever reason had not been observed for centuries.

  • The Churchman 62.1
    Book Reviews TOWARDS A UNITED CHURCH, 1913-1947. By Bishop].]. Willis, BishopS. C. Neill, and the Revs.]. W. Arthur, G. W. Broomfield and R. K. Orchard. Edinburgh House Press. 10J6. New hope and new success have come to the reunion movement by the willingness of those who deplore the scandal of our divisions to state, candidly and fully, their grounds of difference; and to recognise that only by a stronger grasp of the theology of the Gospel and the Church can those differences be reconciled. That willingness is well revealed in this important book. Bishop Willis and the Rev. J. W. Arthur first tell the full story of the Kikuyu Conference, 1913, and its results. Kikuyu is not a defunct drama. It is seen now to have been a live issue. Its aim was to meet, at a strategic African cross­ roads, where Animism, Islam, Christianity and Western Civilisation were competing for the soul of Africa, the problem of denomination­ alism which frustrated evangelism, ostracised converts, and might set up divisions even within one family. Its plan for a federation of Churches was no hasty scheme, but one carefully prepared for, on the basis of the Lambeth Quadrilateral. As a notable test case, it con­ centrated worldwide attention on the need for reunion. Anglican authority here approved its aim and spirit, and even the occasional admission to Anglican sacraments of those not confirmed ; but disapproved Anglican participation in non-episcopal communion. The glorious failure of Kikuyu led, indeed, to the foundation of a Christian Council of Kenya ; but " the spirit of denominationalism has become a part of African Church life in Kenya to-day." Yet the goal of " one Church, one Ministry " has remained, as an ideal and a challenge.
