It is true that the second part of volume xvii of Transactions could not be made ready for publi­ cation before the end of the year; but, if the contents of this were to be adequately prepared and edited, the delay was quite unavoidable. For the first time since its formation, the Publi­ cations Committee had to carry out its duties without the help and inspiration of Mr. Farnham; Mr. Albert Herbert did a great deal of work during, and in preparation for, the Royal Archse- logical Institute's visit to Leicester and the county in July; Mr. S. H. Skillington was for several months busily engaged in editing and seeing through the press the Historical Guide to Leicester which, in collaboration with Mr. Colin Ellis, he wrote for the use of the British Association, whose annual meeting was held at Leicester in September; and Mr. Keith Thomson was occupied for a long time in the exacting task of editing and bringing out the sixth volume of Mr. Farnham's Leicestershire Medieval Village Notes, and in classifying the numerous docu­ ments and other historical materials bequeathed by Mr. Farnham to the Leicester Museum Muniment Room. Members who take these facts into consideration will not feel disposed to blame the sub-committee for neglect or careless procrastination. It was felt to be right, out of respect to Mr. Farnham's memory, to cancel the first (January) Bi-monthly Meeting on the Society's programme. During the rest of the year, the following ladies and gentlemen, and a Californian learned institution, were elected to membership : — In March:— Mrs. Catherine Mary Ellis, Woodclose, Quorn, Loughborough Mr. A. T. Shorthose Smith, Fernleigh, Syston, Leicester 11. LEICESTERSHIRE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY In April:— Mr. Norman S. Catlow, Kingsthorpe, Westminster Road, Leicester In May:— Mr. A. S. Gray, 139 Knighton Road, Leicester Mr. C. G. Gardiner, Grange Cottage, Lindley In June:— Mrs. G. E. Pochin, Three Ways, Ashfield Road, Leicester In July:— Mr. Roy Smith, 6 Waterloo Street, Leicester. Mr. Harry Scott, Sanvey Gate,- Leicester In September:—The Rev. S. R. Pocock, The Rectory, Peckleton, Leicester Mr. J. H. Proctor, Wyndham Avenue, Melton Mowbray In October :— Mr. William Austin, The Pines, Elms Road, Leicester In November:—The Henry E. Huntingdon Library and Art Gallery, San Marino, California In the course of the year, nineteen members resigned, chiefly because of the stringency of the times, and we have to regret the loss by death of Mr. George Francis Farnham, Lord Aberconway, Sir Maurice Levy, Miss M. E. Musson, Mr. F. N. Fosbrooke, Mr. Charles Kempson, Mr. C. S. Robinson, Mr. H. C. Snow and Mr. C. Stuart Thomson. The short memoir of Mr. Farnham that is printed below has been written by Mr. S. H. Skillington, who was closely and continuously associated with him throughout the period of his active connection with the Society. George Francis Farnham, M.A., F.S.A. My purpose in writing this brief memoir is to relate the principal events of Mr. Farnham's life, with such passing comments as will, I hope, assist readers to form a true conception of the man as he was. Any attempt at completeness, even on a small scale, would be futile; but I may be able to add a little that is significant to what has been said by Colonel Martin and Mr. Keith Thomson in the second part of volume xvii of the Society's Transactions, which is now on the point of being issued to members. George Francis Farnham, for many years leader of the Society and Chairman of its General Committee, was born on the REPORT 1.11. 9th of September, 185^, and died on the 7th of January, 1933. He was the second and only surviving son of Edward Basil Farnham, of Quorndon, now called Quorn, Leicestershire, and his wife, Gertrude Emily, second daughter of Sir William Cradock Hartopp, baronet, of Freeby, in the county of Leicester, and Four Oaks Park, Warwickshire. Edward Basil Farnham, who was a magistrate and Deputy Lieutenant of the county, and a major in the Leicestershire Yeomanry, was born in the last year of the eighteenth century and died in 1879. He represented in Parlia­ ment the old Northern Division of Leicestershire from 1837 until 1859, when he retired for reasons of health. Mrs. Farnham, who was much younger than he was, survived him for many years. Quorn (or Quorndon) House, which eventually came into the possession of their second son, who never married, though not so large as it was originally, may still be described as a spacious and dignified mansion standing in extensive grounds. Built in 1820, it occupies a site very near to that of the Over Hall, the ancient Quorndon residence of the senior branch of the family, which, as we shall see, is a very old one. After being under a tutor at Brighton, George Francis Farnham was sent to Eton, whence he proceeded to Brazenose College, Oxford, where he took his degree in classics. During the next few years, in which he had time to look round, he increased his knowledge of the world, and of the topography and country houses of Leicestershire, by taking part in the social activities

  • Leicestershire Sustainable Community Strategy
    LEICESTERSHIRE SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY STRATEGY FINAL DRAFT MARCH 2008 1 Introduction I am pleased to present our Sustainable Community Strategy to you on behalf of Leicestershire Together, the Local Strategic Partnership for Leicestershire. Leicestershire Together includes all of the organisations and partnerships that deliver public services in Leicestershire, and we seek to improve the quality of life and of public services in the County. This draft Sustainable Community Strategy proposes priorities for improvement in Leicestershire over the next 5 years. These are largely based upon two draft evidence base reports ‘This is Leicestershire’ and ‘Places in Leicestershire’. The structure of the new Sustainable Community Strategy is quite different to that of the previous Community Strategy in that it focuses on what we are going to do rather than how we are going to do it. Our second Local Area Agreement (LAA2) is the key delivery framework for the strategy (the ‘how’ bit) – and more details on the LAA can be found later in this document. The challenge that faces us now is to deliver the ambitions outlined in this Strategy, making a real and measurable difference to the lives of Leicestershire people. David Parsons Chair, Leicestershire Together Contact details: Telephone: 0116 305 6977/8137 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.leicestershiretogether.org Write to us: Policy Team, Chief Executives Department, Leicestershire County Council, County Hall, Glenfield, Leicestershire LE3 8RA 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Leicestershire Together Leicestershire Together is the Local Strategic Partnership for Leicestershire and includes all of the organisations and partnerships that deliver public services in the County. Our aim is to improve the quality of life for the people of Leicestershire and make Leicestershire the best possible place to live and work for everyone.

ILon&on Issued to the Subscribers by Phillimore & Co., 124, Chancery Lane. 1908. — PREFACE. As promised in the last volume of the Marriage Registers of Derbyshire, the marriage records of St. Alkmund's form the first instalment of the Registers of the County Town. The Editors do not doubt that these will prove especially interesting to Derbyshire people. In Volume V they hope to print further instalments of town registers in the shape of those of St. Michael's and also some village registers. It will be noticed that St. Alkmund's register begins at the earliest possible date, 1538, but of the remainder, two do not start till the seventeenth century and one, that of Quarndon, synchronizes with the passing of Lord Hardwicke's Marriage Act. 1379092 It will be convenient to give here a list of the Derby- shire parishes of which the Registers have been printed in this series: Volume I.

  • The Roman Sites of South-West Leicestershire
    PLATE I HIGH CROSS—FROM NORTH HIGH CROSS—FROM SOUTH THE ROMAN SITES OF SOUTH-WEST LEICESTERSHIRE BY ARTHUR J. PICKERING, F.G.S. PART I VENON/E TRIPONTIUM Preface THE following notes on the Roman Sites of South-West Leicester­ shire are of a somewhat fragmentary character. They will be found, however, to make some contribution to present day know­ ledge of the Midlands during the Roman occupation and will, the writer hopes, pave the way for excavation of a more ambitious character. The writer is convinced that systematic search and enquiry would reveal a number of other sites in this corner of the county at present unrecorded. Hinckley, Higham-on-the-Hill, Market Bosworth and Peckleton, where some evidence of Roman occupation has come to light, would possibly be found to be homesteads of the Roman-British farmer similar to Barwell and Sapcote. There is here every indication that in early forest clearings the land was tilled and stock raised for the important market town of Ratse Coritanorum. Owing to the lack of vigilance and to the superficial resem­ blance of Roman building material to what may be found on the site of any old cottage, there can be no doubt that much valuable evidence is often overlooked and for ever lost to us. Whatever historical interest these notes may afford to the antiquarian, their value has been considerably enhanced to the student by the descriptive and comparative notes on the coarse pottery contributed by Mr. B. H. St. J. O'Neil, of the Office of Works. His invaluable help in the examination of this material, and also in the revision of the complete type-script of this paper for the press, places the writer under a great debt of gratitude.
