  • Recollections of the First Hundred Years of Badby and Fawsley Women’S
    Recollections of the first hundred years of Badby and Fawsley Women’s Institute 1918 – 2018 Preface The original purpose of the Women's Institute was to bring together women of the countryside who might otherwise be isolated. Badby and Fawsley W.I. was formed in February, 1918 by Lady Julia Knightley of Fawsley Hall. It enabled local women to meet with others who lived in a rural setting. Activities and meetings leant toward domestic matters. Lady Knightley wished that the ladies of Badby be joined together by the 'common ideals of truth, tolerance, justice and friendship'. Protocol had to be, and was, adhered to rigidly, with some members getting irate if it was not. Rules were kept. Institutes at the beginning were considerably helped and financed by the Board of Agriculture but by 1922 the Institutes had to stand on their own feet. Lady Knightley was, inevitably, chosen as the first President. She remained President for 15 years until she moved from Fawsley. It had been her drive and energy which had caused the group’s inception because she strongly believed that belonging to the Institute would “brighten the lives and widen the outlook of the women who lived in the country districts.” Sadly all Archive material from early years has been mislaid. It was thought that it had been lodged at the County Archives but searches there have drawn a blank. 1 Meetings The first meetings were held in the ‘club room’ of the Maltsters, and then in a small room which was formerly the infant’s school room.

  • Iron Age Hillforts Survey (Northamptonshire): Second Stage Investigations: Iss
    Iron Age Hillforts Survey (Northamptonshire): Second Stage Investigations: Iss. 2, Mar-2016 Iron Age Hillforts Survey (Northamptonshire): Analysis of the Individual Hillfort Reports Synopsis: In the autumn of 2013, CLASP undertook to assist national teams working to compile an “Atlas of British Iron Age Hillforts” (jointly led by focus groups of senior archaeologists at the universities of Oxford and Edinburgh), by carrying out surveys of all known prehistoric hillforts in Northamptonshire. The results of these Northamptonshire surveys naturally feed forward into the national hillforts survey – but in addition, the CLASP team has recognised that the results for Northamptonshire are themselves capable of interpretation and analysis on a local basis. Resulting from this detailed research on each of the individual sites, it gradually became clear that it would be instructive to carry out further analytical investigations. This paper therefore aims to explore, analyse and summarise such of these investigations as could be carried out by desktop analysis and study of the individual survey reports. Five ‘metrics’ are first identified, by which the hillforts can be assessed; and case-study analysis is then applied to selected groups of the hilforts, incorporating a great deal of further data drawn from the wider landscape area around the hillforts, in order to study the ways in which the five metrics apply to each of the selected groups of forts. As a result, it has been possible to form certain conclusions, and to advance some theories about the site groupings and their functions and possible interactions. The CLASP team involved in this study is as follows: G.W.

Northamptonshire County Council (referred to as ‘the Applicant’) is seeking to obtain detailed planning permission for the Northampton North-West Relief Road (referred to as the 'Proposed Scheme’), located on land approximately 1.2km south-east of Church Brampton and immediately east of the Brampton Heath Golf Centre. 1.1.2. The Proposed Scheme will connect the A5199 Welford Road, via Sandy Lane, with a proposed junction located adjacent to Grange Farm, which will provide access to the land allocated for the proposed Dallington Grange development. The Proposed Scheme forms part of a wider strategy to complete the ring road around the northern sector of Northampton that will ultimately connect the A4500 Weedon Road and M1 Motorway Junction 16 to the west, with the A43 Kettering Road and Kettering to the north.

Our plan has been produced by local residents, with the support of a SNDP committee, using the views of the residents of Staverton Parish. The SNDP committee has consulted and listened to the community, local businesses and organisations on a wide range of issues that will influence the wellbeing, sustainability and long term preservation of our rural community.
