  • Country Iioijs1 of Greater Mancheste
    COUNTRY IIOIJS1 OF GREATER MANCHESTE * P .•» I COUNTRY HOUSES OF GREATER MANCHESTER EDITORS :J.S.F. WALKER & A.S.TINDALL (;itiL\n<it MANCHESTER ARCHAEOLOGICAL UNIT 1985 osi CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT The country house is part of the diverse and rich heritage of Greater Manchester. This volume follows the development of the country house from the Middle Ages to the present day, using a combination of .archaeological excavation, documentary research and survey to present a coherent study of a building type which reflects the social and economic development of the community in a singularly direct way. By their survival they .demonstrate the entrepreneurial skills of the owner and the abilities of those artisans who built and maintained them. The form and function of the country house change over the centuries, and the fabric of individual buildings mirrors these changes and encapsulates much of the history of the time. Many of our country houses are in good hands, well maintained and with a secure future. Many others described in this volume are already lost, and even the land upon which they stood has been so disturbed as to allow no further site investigation. Their loss, in many cases, was inevitable but I hope that this publication will create an awareness that others, too valuable to be allowed to disappear, are at risk. The protection and refurbishment of old buildings is costly, but I am confident that present conservation policies, allied with improving public and private attitudes towards preservation, have created a strong body of opinion in favour of the constructive re-use of the best of those which survive.

  • Economy & Regeneration
    Date 26 June 2018 Version 1.0 (Cabinet) Approved by KB ECONOMY & REGENERATION PORTFOLIO HOLDER’S INTRODUCTION This is my third annual Portfolio Agreement, which summarises the Economy & Regeneration Portfolio’s work programme and its intended outcomes for the next 12 months. The 2017/18 Annual Report was published last month and this Agreement sets out how we will build on the work described in that report to make our Borough an even better place to live, visit, work and do business. We are working hard to ensure that the Borough’s economy continues to grow, but we are now placing particular emphasis on ensuring this growth is inclusive growth – growth that benefits all sections of our community. Work and skills issues are a key part of this work and earlier this year we held a Work & Skills Commission involving a series of workshops with employers, workers & jobseekers (including young people) and educators & trainers. These aimed to identify the priorities that we need to focus on to ensure our residents have access to good jobs and our workforce has the skills our employers need. Findings from the Commission will inform a work programme for a new Work & Skills Board and I will report on the Board's work in my regular performance reports. Its work will link with and complement work underway in the Reform & Governance portfolio that is investigating factors that seem to trap some of our residents in poverty. Finding and sustaining a good job can be the key to escaping poverty, but ill health can be a barrier to employment.

  • AUGUST 2020 Stay Safe
    AUGUST 2020 St Mary's Church is the oldest parish church in Stockport. It stands in Churchgate overlooking the market place. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building. Cover photo courtesy of David Pechey Stay Safe - Stay in Touch Photo-montage courtesy of Bramhall U3A Photography Group August was named in honour of the Roman Emperor, Caesar Augustus (27BC to AD14). After Julius Caesar’s grandnephew Augustus defeated Marc Antony and Cleopatra, and became emperor of Rome, the Roman Senate decided that he too should have a month named after him. The month Sextillus (sex = six) was chosen. Not only did the Senate name a month after Augustus, but it decided that since Julius Caesar’s month, July, had 31 days, Augustus's month should equal it, as under the Roman, or Julian calendar, the months alternated evenly between 30 and 31 days (with the exception of February), which made August 30 days long. So, instead of August having a mere 30 days, it was lengthened to 31, preventing anyone from claiming that Emperor Augustus was saddled with an inferior month.
