The structure of the strategies and their interrelationships are important as they need to both recognise the approach of the West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy including the Northampton Related Development Area (NRDA), and the requirements of each authority to have its own assessments and recommendations for all aspects of sport, recreation and open space planning. These strategies will inform the Local Plan Part 2, and will form part of the evidence base for the Local Plan. The report structure reflects these needs: Part 1: National and local policy context This covers the borough and also specifically identifies the population projections for the relevant NRDA SUEs. Part 2: Built facilities strategy This looks at each of the sports facility types in turn, both the larger strategic facilities such as sports halls and swimming pools, and local facilities such as outdoor tennis courts and bowling greens. Also considered within this strategy report are the countryside and water activities such as rowing, sailing, cycling and horse riding. DRAFT Part 3: Playing pitch strategy This considers grass playing fields plus artificial grass pitches, and primarily considers the needs of football, cricket, rugby and hockey. Part 4: Open spaces This strategy considers the various types of open space across the district such as parks and gardens, amenity green space, provision for children’s play and young people and allotments. The strategies for built facilities and playing pitches follow the formal guidance set down by Sport England. There is currently no national guidance for open space reports, so the approach follows current best practice. The strategies consider the demand and supply of facilities across local authority administrative boundaries. This provides an opportunity to consider the role of provision like Moulton College in Daventry District, and Caroline Chisholm School in South Northamptonshire in association with users external to these districts.

It can also provide an attractive feature, which forms a major aspect of the character of a settlement or area. 1.2 In 2005, PMP consultants carried out an Open Space, Sport and Recreational Study of East Northamptonshire (published January 2006). In accordance with Planning Policy Guide (PPG) 17, the study identified open space and rated it on quality, quantity and accessibility issues, as well as highlighting areas of deprivation and where improvements to existing open space needed to be made.

Deserted Villages p. 41. Gayton The cartulary ofStJames Abbey, Northampton, refers to two fields in a grant of2 roods, made before 1313, one each in the East Field and West Field 1. Another larger grant of 16.25 acres begins with the East field, 7.75 acres, and ends with the West Field. A full terrier is given, but owing to fire damage to the manuscript all the details are not legible. Since the East Field has nearly half the land a two-field system is likely. Named furlongs are catwelleslade and wold fortiewf:ye. Three fields occur in a 1388-9 list of demesne pasture; Drynel Feld, Catwel Feld, and Milne Feld2• Hence there was a change from two to three fields at some time in the 14th century. The demesne of 1388- 9 was probably dispersed, since it lay in parcels of 1- 9.25 acres. In 1600 the parish was still open with yardlands3; the enclosure date seems to be 1603 since two deeds survive for that year, both dated 3rd April, with the participants quit-claiming all rights to the other. The properties were described as being 'now enclosed, fenced and ditched with mounds' in Catwell and Myll Fields4• 1 BL Cott. Tib. E. v. mm.l29d-130 (dated 1313, G.

    NEWSLETTER July 2021 Heritage Organisation of the Year won by Northampton Museum and Art Gallery Photograph courtesy of Laura Malpas and NMAG Northamptonshire Heritage Forum page 1 July 2021 www.northamptonshireheritageforum.co.uk MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN Thursday 1 July was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the outstanding achievements of Northamptonshire heritage organisations. My congratulations to all the winners of the Awards and our other members that submitted entries. I was delighted that Northampton Museum and Art Gallery was awarded Organisation of the Year and I look forward to representing the Forum at its gala opening on Tuesday 20 July. The Vice Lord Lieutenant, James Lowther, encouraged the Forum and all its members to remember how important Heritage is to the recovery of the economy following the pandemic. Our partnership with Northants Surprise will facilitate improved visitor information about our historic houses, sites and museums and I am sure we will all make the best of this opportunity to recover and grow our audiences. Issue 27 of Hindsight has been published and will be with you shortly, if you haven’t already received your copy. I am sure everyone will enjoy reading the very varied articles; they represent the best of heritage in Northamptonshire. Finally, I wish you all the best with your activities over the coming months. Martin Lawrence MBE WEBSITE UPDATE The new Northamptonshire Heritage Forum website is now up and running. We hope that you have been able to have a look at it, and for any organisations who have not yet checked their details, please do so, as soon as possible.
