  • A Lost Leicestershire Industry Pp.34-41
    A LOST LEICESTERSHIRE INDUSTRY by J. A. Daniell The author is indebted to Mr. John Colledge, of Whitwick, who has generously allowed his notes to be quoted, and to Mr. William Corah, of the Coalville Times, whose comments on the subject have stimulated local interest. INTRODUCTION Of all the minor industries of Leicestershire in the nineteenth century it must be true to say that Bauble-making is one of the least known but by no means the least interesting. A search through the old Directories will reveal the official name 1 "Spar Ornament Manufactory", but among the few surviving old folk whose fading memories recall the "good old days" in Whitwick, Thringstone and Coleorton it must be "Bawbles" (sic) and as such they will be referred to in this brief account. The word "Bauble" was used locally to define an object which was ornamental but had no particular use. It is true that many of them were made to fulfil a functional purpose but they were, nevertheless, intended for display on the mantelpiece rather than for use in the kitchen cupboard. It is o.f course well known that alabaster has been quarried at Chellaston in Derbyshire since medieval times and it was from these same quarries that the Leicestershire bauble-makers obtained their "spar". (The word "alabaster" was not recognised in the industry.) It was delivered to them in large blocks transported by horse and cart, a distance of about 12 miles by road. A local industry is usually sited in a particular place either because the raw material is at hand or because there is a steady demand in the district for the goods produced.
