I [Original of Page [Original of page 23] i [Original of page 28] ii Almanack 1734 William Dalby INTRODUCTION TO THE TRANSCRIPT This small leather-covered almanac (15 cm by 9.5 cm) was used by William Dalby from 1734 to at least 1747 to record business transactions. The book now in the Nottinghamshire Archives was in the possession of a seventh generation descendent of William Dalby who died on the fifth day of December 1777 aged 68. He was known to have operated the mill at the highest point of Mill Lane in Bradmore, Nottinghamshire. Unfortunately, William does not record any place name within the book. His son William, whose third marriage was to Sarah Hallam possibly related to the William Hallam recorded in the book, continued as the miller after his father’s death. In 1792, William junior, is recorded in a Bunny Estate survey as paying rent of £2/11/0 per annum for Mill Close with windmill. The mill itself was rated at £1/5/0. John Dalby, a younger son of William senior, was the only other Dalby name written in the book. He was also a miller probably with his brother or after his brother’s death. John was the chief beneficiary of his father’s will and married Catherine Lane perhaps related to the Thomas Lane recorded in the almanac. The pages of the original book are not numbered. Page 1 of this transcript represents the front cover (with no legible writing) and page 77 is inside the back cover. All the handwritten information is transcribed and together with the printed text is reproduced in the original page order. Crossing out, which presumably indicated completed transactions, is also copied. William would have operated on the toll system, providing a service to local farmers and householders. Entries give his charge for milling the quantity grain provided by the customer. Different charges incurred within a few weeks may have arisen from the prevailing wind conditions. Calm periods caused a lack of income while rent or maintenance costs would still have to be paid. Charges also varied with the type of grain and the amount of dressing required for animal feed or bread making. Page 46, and its original on page 76, shows the pay for one day’s work to be 1 shilling (5p). Typically, the charge for milling a bushel of corn was about 3 shillings (15p) which seems quite expensive when a pair of millstones in a good wind could grind up to 2 bushels per hour. It may be seen that many of the customers ran up significant debts which were paid off over many months, sometimes by the exchange of goods, e.g. see page 37 where a strike of apples is valued at about 1s 9d. William also lent small sums, so he must have been fairly wealthy to stand these debts. iii WILLIAM DALBY’S CUSTOMERS The following list was compiled from parish records, but there is no way of linking the people to those mentioned by William Dalby. Often names were spelled phonetically and therefore not identically. However, a high proportion of them in the list would have been his customers. Of the 40 or so recorded in the almanac about 42% were associated with Ruddington, 25% with Bradmore, 16% with Bunny and others with Keyworth, Plumtree and Owthorpe. Occupations were rarely recorded but three farmers and one shoemaker were identified. It is also interesting to note that Thomas Dickinson of Bradmore was a miller aged 23 when he married Elizabeth Boot of Ruddington aged 20, at Lenton in 1737. It is possible that Thomas operated the mill at the top of Spinney Hill just in the parish of Ruddington. Abbreviations: bap. = baptised, Bu. = Bunny, Br. = Bradmore, m. = married, Ru. = Ruddington.

  • Boundary Changes in SW Rushcliffe – Rationale
    Boundary Changes in SW Rushcliffe – Rationale I have looked at the figures for SW Rushcliffe and compiled the accompanying spreadsheet, which has 2 sheets Current and Proposal. I have used the published 2018 electorate figures. For the variance calculation I have used the published figure of 2078 for 45 seats. Stanford Ward The parishes in Stanford Ward do not have any real affinity or any centre of population. My suggestion is that Stanford disappears and its parishes are absorbed into other wards, including Soar Valley and Leake. This is similar to the situation before the last boundary change. Soar Valley and Gotham Normanton on Soar’s closest links are with Sutton Bonington, so it should be included in Soar Valley. However, Soar Valley is already too large (+24% on old figures, +9% on new figures) and Gotham too small (-3% on old figures, -18% on new figures), so Soar Valley would need to lose Kingston upon Soar and Ratcliffe upon Soar to Gotham Ward. To support this move, it is worth noting that the group of parishes called the “453churches” consists of the five parishes in the proposed Gotham Ward: Gotham, Barton, Thrumpton, Ratcliffe and Kingston. The children from Ratcliffe and Kingston go to Sutton Bonington Primary School, except those from New Kingston, who go to Gotham Primary School. An alternative proposal would be to combine the resulting Soar Valley and Gotham wards into a 2 seat ward, which might be more acceptable to some residents. Leake The current Leake Ward is too small (-2% on old figures, -10% on new figures).

Not even considering the bottleneck on the A52 through Radcliffe, schools, doctors, dentists, police etc 1 From: DAVID BASTABLE Sent: 26 June 2018 16:14 To: Localdevelopment Subject: Rushcliffe Develoment Plan I agree completely with the Borough Councils stand on further development in Aslockton We already have a large development taking place which is totally out of character with the rest of the village and was passed in my opinion on a political decision from national government. The houses on this development are not what is wanted in the area, being 3 & 4 bedroom, unsuitable for first time buyers or for penioners wishing to downsize to single storey accommodation The local services are inadequate:- The bus service at long intervals Whilst we have a station, the number of trains stopping
