August 2016 1. Introduction This study forms part of the evidence base for the Wyre Local Plan. It details research undertaken by the Wyre council planning policy team into the role and function of the borough’s settlements, describing why this work has been undertaken, the methodology used and the results. Understanding the nature of different settlements and the relative roles they can play is critical to developing and delivering local plan strategy and individual policies. With this in mind, the aim of this Settlement Study is two-fold. First, to establish a baseline position in terms of understanding the level of economic and social infrastructure present in each settlement and how this might influence the appropriate nature and scale of development. It will provide evidence for discussions with stakeholders and developers about the nature of supporting infrastructure needed to ensure that future development is sustainable. Second, to identify, analyse and rank the borough’s settlements according to a range of indicators, and by doing so to inform the definition of the local plan settlement hierarchy (see Section 3 below).

  • 1 Victoria County History of Cumbria
    Victoria County History of Cumbria Project: Work in Progress Interim Draft [Note: This is an interim draft and should not be cited without first consulting the VCH Cumbria project: for contact details, see http://www.cumbriacountyhistory.org.uk/ ] Parish/township: CASTERTON Author: Emmeline Garnett Date of draft: January 2014 SOCIAL HISTORY Until the 1830s Casterton’s social character appears to have been typical of other rural townships in Westmorland. The backbone of the community consisted of small farmers, many living in small hamlets or isolated dwellings. The township had no church and no proper village. The old manor house stood isolated and downgraded to a farm, and the inn was probably a recent establishment after the road was turnpiked. In 1695 it was reported that, ‘Wee have no person above the degree of a yeoman nor no person of £50 lands or £600 personal Estate within our township.’ 1 Change came with the establishment of the school which William Wilson Carus-Wilson founded as the Clergy Daughters’ School in Cowan Bridge, Lancashire, in 1823, 2 and ten years later moved with 90 pupils to custom-built premises at Casterton, providing a higher and more healthy site, which was moreover on his own family estate. 3 It is to Carus-Wilson’s credit that at a time when girls’ education had barely been considered, both his foundations were for girls. Even before the Clergy Daughters’ School, about 1820 he had started the Servants’ School, to instruct girls of a lower social class in basic household skills and a carefully restricted amount of general education.

  • The Early History of Man's Activities in the Quernmore Area
    I Contrebis 2000 The Early History of Man's Activities in the Quernmore Area. Phil Hudson Introduction This paper hopes to provide a chronological outline of the events which were important in creating the landscape changes in the Quernmore forest area. There was movement into the area by prehistoric man and some further incursions in the Anglo- Saxon and the Norse periods leading to Saxon estates and settled agricultural villages by the time of the Norman Conquest. These villages and estates were taken over by the Normans, and were held of the King, as recorded in Domesday. The Post-Nonnan conquest new lessees made some dramatic changes and later emparked, assarted and enclosed several areas of the forest. This resulted in small estates, farms and vaccaries being founded over the next four hundred years until these enclosed areas were sold off by the Crown putting them into private hands. Finally there was total enclosure of the remaining commons by the 1817 Award. The area around Lancaster and Quernmore appears to have been occupied by man for several thousand years, and there is evidence in the forest landscape of prehistoric and Romano-British occupation sites. These can be seen as relict features and have been mapped as part of my on-going study of the area. (see Maps 1 & 2). Some of this field evidence can be supported by archaeological excavation work, recorded sites and artif.act finds. For prehistoric occupation in the district random finds include: mesolithic flints,l polished stone itxe heads at Heysham;'worked flints at Galgate (SD 4827 5526), Catshaw and Haythomthwaite; stone axe and hammer heads found in Quernmore during the construction of the Thirlmere pipeline c1890;3 a Neolithic bowl, Mortlake type, found in Lancaster,o a Bronze Age boat burial,s at SD 5423 5735: similar date fragments of cinerary urn on Lancaster Moor,6 and several others discovered in Lancaster during building works c1840-1900.7 Several Romano-British sites have been mapped along with finds of rotary quems from the same period and associated artifacts.
