Action plan 3 INTRODUCTION PARISH PLANS Parish plans are part of the “Vital Villages” initiative of the Countryside Agency, run locally through the Rural Community Council (Leicestershire & Rutland). A Parish Plan should provide a picture of a village, identifying through consultation the concerns and needs of its residents. From the plan villages should identify actions to improve the village and the life of the community. The resulting Village Action Plan is then used to inform the County Council, through the Parish Council. Parish Plans have a statutory place in local government. GREAT CASTERTON PARISH PLAN Great Casterton’s Parish Plan started with a meeting of villagers in June 2002. There was particular interest because of a contentious planning decision imposed by the County Council on the village. The Community Development Officer for Rutland, Adele Stainsby, explained the purpose of the plan and the benefits for the village. A committee was formed, and a constitution drawn up. The Parish Council promised a small initial grant while an application for Countryside Agency funding was prepared. The money granted was to be balanced by the voluntary work of villagers. -

Tilton on the Hill Settlement Profile Introduction
Tilton on the Hill Settlement Profile Introduction General Location: Tilton on the Hill (hereby referred to as Tilton), lies on the B6047 that connects Market Harborough (14 miles away) to Melton Mowbray (11 miles away). The village is in the north-east of Harborough District, sitting only 2 miles north of the A47. Tilton parish is one of the largest in the District and embraces numerous past and current settlements such as Halstead, Whatborough and Marefield. The settlement neighbours Skeffington to the south, Billesdon, Cold Newton and Lowesby to the west, Marefield and Owsten and Newbold to the north, with Loddington, Launde and Withcote lying to the east. Beyond its Harborough District neighbours, the parish is in close proximity to Melton Borough and Rutland County. The village centre is a conservation area (with the church, pub and Main Street constituting its centre) and the parish contains 5 scheduled ancient monuments. Such a rich history can be explained by Tilton’s location, at the crossroads of two ancient, pre-Roman pathways that date back to the Bronze Age. Furthermore, the village was recognised not only as ‘The Best Village in Leicestershire’ in the Calor Village of the Year Awards 2009, but also as the ‘Sustainability Village of the Year’ for the Midlands in the same year. An achievement that can be considered the fruits of ‘Tilton Green’s’ labour – a community centred on improving Tilton’s environmental record (discussed in Tilton Parish Council section). Lastly, Tilton is among one of the highest places in east Leicestershire, standing at 219 metres above sea level near the peak of the High Leicestershire area. -

BRONZE AGE SETTLEMENT at RIDLINGTON, RUTLAND Matthew Beamish
01 Ridlington - Beamish 30/9/05 3:19 pm Page 1 BRONZE AGE SETTLEMENT AT RIDLINGTON, RUTLAND Matthew Beamish with contributions from Lynden Cooper, Alan Hogg, Patrick Marsden, and Angela Monckton A post-ring roundhouse and adjacent structure were recorded by University of Leicester Archaeological Services, during archaeological recording preceding laying of the Wing to Whatborough Hill trunk main in 1996 by Anglian Water plc. The form of the roundhouse together with the radiocarbon dating of charred grains and finds of pottery and flint indicate that the remains stemmed from occupation toward the end of the second millennium B.C. The distribution of charred cereal remains within the postholes indicates that grain including barley was processed and stored on site. A pit containing a small quantity of Beaker style pottery was also recorded to the east, whilst a palaeolith was recovered from the infill of a cryogenic fissure. The remains were discovered on the northern edge of a flat plateau of Northamptonshire Sand Ironstone at between 176 and 177m ODSK832023). The plateau forms a widening of a west–east ridge, a natural route way, above northern slopes down into the Chater Valley, and abrupt escarpments above the parishes of Ayston and Belton to the south (illus. 2). Near to the site, springs issue from just below the 160m and 130m contours to the north and south east respectively and ponds exist to the east corresponding with a boulder clay cap. The area was targeted for investigation as it lay on the northern fringe of a substantial Mesolithic/Early Neolithic flint scatter (LE5661, 5662, 5663) (illus. -

They are widely recognised as useful tools, helping to aid the planning, design and management of future development in a particular locality. 1.2 The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) recognises the value of local distinctiveness and supports the use of characterisation studies, such as character assessments, to underpin and inform planning policy. Specifically, paragraph 58 of the NPPF states that: ‘Local and neighbourhood plans should develop robust and comprehensive policies that set out the quality of development that will be expected for the area. Such policies should be based on stated objectives for the future of the area and an understanding and evaluation of its defining characteristics. Planning policies and decisions should aim to ensure that developments: respond to local character and history, and reflect the identity of local surroundings and materials, while not preventing or discouraging appropriate innovation’. -

The Rove Beetles of Leicestershire and Rutland
LEICESTERSHIRE ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY The Rove Beetles (Staphylinidae) of Leicestershire and Rutland Part 1: Sub-families Paederinae, Pseudopsinae and Staphylininae Derek A. Lott Creophilus maxillosus (Graham Calow) LESOPS 24 (2011) ISSN 0957 – 1019 Correspondence: 5 Welland Road, Barrow upon Soar, LE12 8NA VC55 Staphylinids Part 1 2 Introduction With over 56,000 described species in the world, the Staphylinidae are the largest family in the animal kingdom (Grebennikov & Newton, 2009). Around a quarter of the British beetles are rove beetles, so they represent an important component of biodiversity in Britain. However, because of perceived difficulties in their identification, they have not received the attention that they merit. This paper aims to play a part in redressing that imbalance by listing all reliable records from Leicestershire and Rutland for the different species and analysing which species have declined locally over 100 years of recording rove beetles and which have prospered. The subfamilies treated in this first part include the largest and most conspicuous species in the family. The geographical area covered is the vice county of Leicestershire and Rutland (VC55). Some records from adjacent banks of the River Soar that technically lie in Nottinghamshire are also included. These records can be distinguished by the use of Nottinghamshire parish names. Identification Staphylinidae can be easily recognised among beetles in the field by their short wing cases that leave five or six segments of the abdomen exposed and flexible. In fact they look more like earwigs than other beetles. For identification to species, all the members of the subfamilies in this part will be covered by the forthcoming Royal Entomological Society handbook to Staphylinidae parts 6 and 7 due for publication in 2011. -
Barrowden School Was Built in 1862 by the Marquess of Exeter
Barrowden School was built in 1862 by the Marquess of Exeter. Within a year up to 120 pupils were attending. The school was extended in 1872 with the addition of an infants room. The first report by the Head in 1872 was hardly complimentary: ‘The intelligence of the Upper classes requires much cultivation.’ In 1880 the Inspector is scathing and considers that the spelling throughout the school might be better. In 1895 Mr Brittiff Tidd and his wife Agnes were appointed as Headmaster and Mistress. Their eight years of service Barrowden School, now a private house ’greatly improved the village school, and the discipline (and) efficiency.’ Following their departure in 1903, standards declined almost overnight. However by 1905 the Inspector was able to report ‘a decided improvement in the tone, discipline and efficiency of the school.’ In 1973 the children of junior school age were moved to North Luffenham Primary School. For several years, the building continued to be run as an Infant School for three and four year olds. Grantham Journal, 9 May 1903 Bisbrooke (later Bisbrooke and Glaston) School opened in 1872 in the grounds of Bisbrooke Hall. The school could accommodate 64 seniors and 24 infants. A constant concern was over the number of pupils attending as funding was dependent on this. Frequently the attendance officer would be called in to see the parents of absent pupils. Often the reason was illness: ‘A few of the children have been away with blister pox’ (May 1892). ‘Coughing among the children is, at times, most distressing’ (Feb 1901). The School in around 1911 ‘2 or 3 cases of ringworm’ (June 1903).
