Introduction 1.1 It is estimated that there are over 70,000 war memorials in England, commemorating those lost in various wars ranging from the English Civil War right up to wars fought in the 21st century. War memorials are an important part of England’s heritage, with a memorial of some type being present in most towns and villages across the country. What is a war memorial? 1.2 The Imperial War Museum (IWM) maintain a register of war memorials, called the UK National Inventory of War Memorials. The IWM defines a war memorial as: “any tangible object which has been erected or dedicated to commemorate those killed as a result of war, conflict or peacekeeping; who served in war or conflict; or who died whilst engaged in military service.” 1.3 In addition, the IWM suggest that to be ‘erected’ or ‘dedicated’ as a memorial, there must be some form of clear statement that defines the commemorative purpose of the structure and reports its installation. This statement is often found inscribed on the memorial itself and the unveiling/dedication service is usually recorded in the media. Types of war memorial 1.4 On the inside of buildings, the most common type of war memorial found in England are those placed inside of buildings, particularly churches, usually taking the form of a metal plaque, stone tablet or timber board. These are often displayed with associated rolls of honour, usually written on paper and framed. 1.5 Outside of buildings, the most common type of memorial is the free-standing memorial structure, such as crosses, columns, obelisks, cenotaphs and other sculpted figures. Why survey outdoor war memorials? 1.6 Although of significance, memorials inside buildings are usually outside of Local Planning Authority control. The most common internal memorials, i.e. those in churches, are included within the exemption from Listed Building Consent enjoyed by ecclesiastical buildings. Further, many memorials are within unlisted buildings so again, are outside of planning control. Finally, internal memorials are usually protected from the effects of the weather, which is the main cause of damage to a memorial. 1.7 The most prominent war memorials are those outside of buildings. These are often in Local Authority ownership (including Parish Councils) and their presence contributes to the character of that area. All outdoor memorials receive some form of protection in the planning system in Bassetlaw, whether by being listed, by being within the curtilage of a listed building, by being within a Conservation Area, by being within a Registered Park & Garden or by being identified as ‘non-designated heritage assets1’. 1 Identified in line with the Council’s adopted criteria on the identification of ‘non-designated heritage assets’, as adopted in January 2011 (and updated in July 2012), 4 1.8 This purpose of this document is: a) To fully catalogue all the outdoor war memorials within Bassetlaw District Prior to this survey and assessment, Bassetlaw District Council did not have a full and complete list of the District’s outdoor war memorials and in many cases, knew little of the local historic significance of individual monuments. As part of the Conservation Team’s role in maintaining and improving the council’s evidence base (for planning purposes), the creation of this list was the first essential step in helping to preserve the District war memorials and to secure they are fully taken account of in planning decision-making. b) To survey the condition of each memorial Using the complete list, it is then important to survey the condition of each of the District’s 38 outdoor war memorials. This will firstly help identify those memorials which require some form of remedial work and will also help the allocation of any grant funding (whether from internal or external sources) towards any necessary repairs. c) To confirm the Council’s support for the preservation, repair or sympathetic restoration of the District’s war memorials The Council will support the preservation, repair or sympathetic restoration of the District’s war memorials as identified in this survey document. The Council will also, where possible, offer financial or research assistance to the owners of war memorials to assist in their preservation, repair or restoration and will provide advice on submitting grant applications to external sources2. 1.9 An earlier version of this survey, approved in May 2014, was also used to support listing applications for a large number of the memorials. Most of these listing applications have subsequently been successful and this is reflected in this November 2015 update. In addition, a further war memorial, at Bothamsall, was discovered after the initial survey was approved. 1.10 The following section contains the Conservation Team’s survey and assessments of significance of the District’s outdoor war memorials. This contains photographs, background information and survey results of each war memorial identified. 2 Sources of grant funding and further advice on war memorials can be found on page 44 of this document. 5 2.

DESCRIPTORS Adult Basic Education; *Correctional Education; *Correctional Institutions; Correctional Rehabilitation; Criminals; *Educational History; Foreign Countries; Postsecondary Education; Prisoners; Prison Libraries; Rehabilitation Programs; Secondary Education; Vocational Rehabilitation IDENTIFIERS *England; *Wales ABSTRACT In response to prison disturbances in England and Wales in the late 1980s, the education program for prisoners was improved and more prisoners were given access to educational services. Although education is a relatively new phenomenon in the English and Welsh penal system, by the 20th century, education had become an integral part of prison life. It served partly as a control mechanism and partly for more altruistic needs. Until 1993 the management and delivery of education and training in prisons was carried out by local education authority staff. Since that time, the education responsibility has been contracted out to organizations such as the Staff College, other universities, and private training organizations. Various policy implications were resolved in order to allow these organizations to provide prison education. Today, prison education programs are probably the most comprehensive of any found in the country. They may range from literacy education to postgraduate study, with students ranging in age from 15 to over 65. The curriculum focuses on social and life skills.

The Board is specifically charged to: (1) satisfy itself as to the humane and just treatment of those held in immigration removal centres. (2) inform promptly the Secretary of State, or any official to whom she has delegated authority as it judges appropriate, any concern it has. 3) report annually to the Secretary of State on how far the Immigration Removal Centre has met the standards and requirements placed on it and what impact these have on those held in the centre. To enable the Board to carry out these duties effectively its members have right of access to detainees, the centre and also to the centre’s records. Appointed by the Home Office, Board members are unpaid and independent of both Her Majesty’s Prison Service (HMPS) and the Home Office. IMB Members are the only independent presence in the Centre on a day-to-day basis. IMB Equality statement Independent Monitoring Boards will not discriminate directly or indirectly against anyone because of age, disability, gender reassignment, marital and civil partnership status, pregnancy and maternity, race including nationality, ethnic or national origins, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation, in recruitment, in the treatment of members, and in the way they monitor the treatment of people in custody.

Like a lot of small towns, if you look, there is still a lot of charm. Park next to the Priory and follow the Worksop Heritage Trail via Priorswell Road, Potter Street, Westgate, Lead Hill and the castle mound, Newcastle Avenue and Bridge Street. Sit in the Memorial Gardens for a while, before taking a stroll along the canal. Visit Mr Straw’s House(National Trust) BUT you must have pre-booked as so many people want to see it.
