Castlebank Castle Hill | Holmesfield | Derbyshire | S18 7WQ CASTLEBANK Castlebank Castle Hill | Holmesfield | Derbyshire | S18 7WQ CASTLEBANK “Castlebank is a stone-built property thought to date back to the 1700s and this is the first time it has been on the open market since 1920. Steeped in history, Castlebank was originally part of the Duke of Rutland’s estate when it was sold to the sitting tenant at the time and there it remained in his family until 1986 when it passed on to my mother,” say the vendors. Castlebank.indd 1 13/07/2018 07:40 Castlebank.indd 2 13/07/2018 07:40 This delightful natural stone detached cottage stands prominently on the site of a Scheduled Ancient Monument so the views are incredible! Noted as a reasonably well-preserved example of a small motte and bailey castle and its connections with the medieval Holmesfield Manor. Castlebank is a smallholding and along with the delightful cottage gardens there is a grazing field for self-sufficient cultivation, a range of outbuildings and a guest annex. The period property dates to the mid 1700’s and retains immense charm and character, it has been sympathetically extended to offer a larger kitchen and a spectacular living room which is open to its lofty rafters. Further additions include a large detached garage and the outbuildings have been converted into a self-contained guest suite which brings the total number of bedrooms to three. Snuggling on the hillside by the castle mound it is protected from the elements but has such fine views, on a clear day it’s hard to say just how far the eye could see but Barlow and the Peak District National Park look spectacular. Castlebank.indd 3 13/07/2018 07:40 An entrance porch leads to the hall. The sitting room is characterful and cosy with timbered floors, beams and a stone fireplace. The dining room is open to the new extended kitchen fitted in oak. Both these rooms combine to form a lovely informal living space. A large extension to the side is now the principle sitting room with a lofty vaulted ceiling and beams exposed. There is a triple aspect here including a french door to the garden terrace. The modern bathroom is ground floor for convenience. Castlebank.indd 4 13/07/2018 07:40 Castlebank.indd 5 13/07/2018 07:40 Seller Insight We moved in to Castlebank in 2001 and we have made a number of changes since then, including a considerable extension, renovations and the addition of a double garage. Whilst we live in a conservation area, the house is not listed which is a huge advantage and we are so pleased with the changes we have made. We converted the stable to what is now a lovely room which includes kitchen and toilet facilities, as well as a sleeping area. It’s a very versatile space that could easily be adapted to a home office.” “Situated around a mile or so from the Peak District National Park, we enjoy the benefits of countryside living, yet we’re only a short distance away from the amenities of the major towns and cities, including Sheffield and Chesterfield. Chatsworth House is nearby too and it’s always a pleasure to visit the beautiful gardens.” “The fully enclosed garden is easily maintained, and the patio area is the ideal spot for al fresco dining or a morning cup of coffee. Perhaps our favourite moments would be those spent looking out over the beautiful views towards Chatsworth from the seating area at the top of the hill. It’s always a pleasure to relax there, especially when the weather is good.” “We tend to spend most of our time in the new sitting room and the vaulted ceiling adds to the sense of light and space. We enjoy looking out over the front garden and the views of the Derbyshire hills beyond.” “Holmesfield is such a convenient place to live. We’ve got the advantage of being so near to the countryside and yet it’s only a short drive to Sheffield.” “The house and garden are great for entertaining. We open up the double doors between the dining and sitting rooms to create a large space which can accommodate quite a few guests.” “We will miss the beautiful views and the village but we’re looking to move to a flat which is more suited to our needs now.” * * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.

London PUBLISHED FOR THE ENGLISH DIALECT SOCIETY BY KEGAN PAUL, TRENCH, TRÜBNER & CO. 1891 The Salamanca Corpus: A Supplement to the Sheffield Glossary (1891) [v] PREFACE. This supplement contains the words collected by me during the time—nearly three years—which has elapsed since the publication of the Sheffield Glossary, The present vocabulary includes many rare and curious words, not a few of which are here printed for the first time. The strong influence which the Norsemen have had in moulding the language of this most southern part of the county of York may be traced both in living words and ancient field-names. Enough evidence has been left to make it clear that they settled here in considerable numbers, and kept a permanent hold on the soil. Indeed, we have the express statement of the Domesday Book that the great manor or community of Hallam, with its lordly hall* and its sixteen dependent berewicks, or barley-farms, was held by a Danish jarl.† I select a few examples from the dialect to illustrate that statement:— SHEFFIELD DIALECT.

Charcoal and charred midden material from hearth at Ash Cave (45WW61) in the lower Snake River canyon, Walla Walla County, Washington (46° 33' N Lat, 118° 33' W Long). Hearth was located at surface of a deep midden deposit (Stratum 3) mantled by a layer of Mt. Mazama ash (Stratum 2). Enclosed in the midden deposit were remains typical of the Old Cordilleran culture in the Pacific Northwest (Butler, 1961). Coll. 1958 by B. R. Butler; subm. by E. H.

The author is pleased to be informed of errors and omissions, alternative interpretations of the early families, additional information for consideration for future updates. She can be contacted at [email protected] DATES • Prior to 1752 the year began on 25 March (Lady Day). In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter.
