Star Farm Pages.indd 3 29/07/2019 11:51 Seller Insight We had lived in Rugby for many years and we were surprised when we first viewed Star Farm as we didn’t know that this road even existed! We loved the seclusion and sense of privacy, and we knew that we wanted to live here as soon as we walked through the front door,” recall the current owners. “The location has been fabulous. We’re spoilt for choice when it comes to eating out as there is a great choice of restaurants in the town centre, as well as a variety of pubs. Elliot’s Field Shopping Park is within walking distance, so we don’t have to struggle to park and there is a fabulous range of high street stores and cafes. Swift Valley Nature Reserve is a great place to walk dogs and we enjoy looking at the wildlife with our grandchild. We’re never short of things to do or places to go, including the Museum and Art Gallery in Rugby town centre as well as Brownsover Hall which is a fabulous Victorian Gothic mansion.” “The garden is very private and is surrounded by trees. We’re not overlooked at all and we like to relax on the swing seat on sunny days. There’s always something of interest to catch our eye, including a huge variety of birds and wildlife. The paved area is perfect for BBQs and entertaining and our friends tend to meet up here for drinks in the garden before we make our annual trip to Leicester Races.” “It’s hard to choose just one favourite room as we love them all. The snug heats up quickly in the morning and it’s also a cosy retreat in the winter evenings, whilst the lounge has an open fire that lends itself perfectly to the Christmas festivities. Perhaps my favourite moments though are those spent in the bath with a glass of wine as I look at the dappled sunlight at the end of the day. It’s perfect.” “We have the best of both worlds here as it’s like living in our own little slice of countryside. Yet we have everything we need, including great road and rail links, shops and restaurants, supermarkets etc. which are all easily accessible. We will miss this, as well as well as those relaxing times spent lazing on the swing seat in the garden on a balmy, summers day.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property. They have not been independently verified, should not be relied on without verification and do not necessarily reflect the views of the agent.

Star Farm Pages.indd 14 29/07/2019 11:52 Star Farm Pages.indd 15 29/07/2019 11:52 LOCATION Rugby has grown to become Warwickshire’s second largest market town, boasting a variety of designer and high street shops, restaurants and pubs. Famed for its public school, the birth of rugby football and the Frank Whittle jet engine, Rugby is also home to the green open spaces of Caldecott Park, Coombe Abbey Country Park, Brownsover Hall and Draycote Water. With a range of excellent schools, Rugby is ideally placed for a well-rounded education. Equally so for transport too, thanks to its convenient motorway links and speedy rail services to Birmingham, Leicester and London Euston in under 50 minutes. Situated on the northern edge of Rugby, this location combines the relaxation of a semi-rural retreat by the River Avon, with plenty of amenities close including a new retail park at hand and the Warwickshire countryside beyond.

The survey remains open and available at this location. Please feel free to repeat your survey response or complete the survey for the first time. Part C – Community Recommendations Minutes of any community meetings held to discuss the information available in other parts of the Church Plan. Part D - Action Plan Details of any actions agreed through Community Recommendations, assigned to community participants, Churches Conservation Trust staff, or to the Churches Conservation Trust Local Community Officer specifically. Part A - Current Report Church Introduction & Statement of Significance St Michael's originated in the 13th century as a chapel of ease to the parish of Clifton-upon-Dunsmore. Windows were added to the church later in the same century, and more were added in the following two centuries. After the Reformation, buttresses and a west porch were added. In 1876 the church was restored by Sir George Gilbert Scott for Allesley Boughton-Leigh of nearby Brownsover Hall. The restoration amounted almost to a rebuilding of the church, but it was done in a sympathetic manner. In the early 20th century, new stained glass was inserted in the east window. The church was declared redundant on 10 February 1987 and became vested in the Churches Conservation Trust. The church is constructed in cream-coloured stone, with reddish-brown freestone dressings. The roof is in clay tiles.

The Conservation Area runs parallel to the A426 Leicester Road on the eastern side and incorporates Brownsover Hall and a small number of houses to the south together with St Michael’s Church. Undeveloped land to the east and around the hall is included within the Conservation Area. The area was designated a Conservation Area in July 1992 and the designation covers all the buildings within the hamlet but excludes the recent residential development of Monarch Close. Conservation Areas were introduced by the Civic Amenities Act in 1967 and they are defined by the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 as an ‘area of special architectural or historic interest, the character of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance’. Section 69 of the act places a duty on the Local Authority to review its Conservation Areas from time to time and section 71 to formulate and publish proposals for their preservation and enhancement.
