  • Norton Canes 2014 Issue 7
    August Norton Canes 2014 Issue 7 Stone Me! Would you believe it? Eagle-eyed villagers may have noticed that a historic rock, which used to stand in Norton Green Lane, has been removed and there is a wooden seat in its place next to the bus stop. Recent scientific tests have revealed the rock dates back an incredible 300-400 MILLION years. According to Dr Peter Floyd of the North Staffordshire Archaeological Society, the boulder type is believed to be dolerite. It originated from the Ice Age when two ice flows from Scotland and Yorkshire are believed to have collided in South Staffordshire, bringing rocks to the surface. Local councillor Sheila Harding believes many of the smaller ones ended up in village garden rockeries – their owners unaware of their historic significance. The Norton Green Lane rock was originally found in Little Wyrley in a field owned by the late Hamish Wallace of Little Wyrley Hall. Mr Wallace gave permission for the rock to be transported by tractor to Norton Green Lane where it sat from 1999-2014. Local farmer, the late John Benton extracted samples from the rock, then parish councillor Sheila Harding and local historian Roger Knowles arranged for boulder samples to be analysed by the Open University. Local farmer John Bridgen and his nephew Jamie hauled the rock into its present position in the garden at the junction of Walsall Road/ Burntwood Road. An information plaque will be installed in the garden in the near future. ―It looks great,‖ Councillor Harding said. ―It sits against the back wall in a quiet area.‖ A full report about the rock can be viewed at the parish office or ring Sheila for more information on 01543 275013.

    Appendix 2: Historic Environment Character Area Overview Reports This appendix provides an overview of the historic environment for each of the Historic Environment Character Areas (HECAs) which fall within Lichfield District. It should be noted that the information and any recommendations contained within each of the documents is subject to amendment should any new information become available. For further information regarding the Historic Environment Record (HER); Historic Landscape Characterisation (HLC) and designated sites please contact: Cultural Heritage Team Environment & Countryside Development Services Directorate Staffordshire County Council Riverway Stafford ST16 3TJ Tel: 01785 277281/277285/277290 Email: [email protected] Staffordshire County Council February 2009 1 Historic Environment Character Area (HECA) 2a Introduction This document forms an overview of the HECA which specifically addresses the potential impact of medium to large scale development upon the historic environment. The character area covers 5,645ha lies wholly within Lichfield District boundary and to the west of Tamworth. Archaeological and Historic Documentation Archaeological work within the character area has tended to concentrate along the A5 and the M6 (Toll) roads. The information on this character area mostly comes from the HER data, whilst VCH has covered part of the area. Historic Environment Assets Summary The current understanding on the later prehistoric landscape of the character area suggests that it had mostly been heavily wooded until Bronze Age, when some clearance may have begun to take place to support a small scale pastoral economy. The earliest evidence for human activity from the character area dates to the Mesolithic period; however, this comes from flint artefacts and probably represents the presence of mobile hunting groups and transitory occupation.
