    Former workings in Jurassic ironstone near Grantham Geoffrey Warrington Abstract: The Lower Jurassic Marlstone Rock Formation was formerly worked for ironstone near Denton (SE Lincolnshire), and the Middle Jurassic Northampton Sand Formation near Hungerton and Colsterworth (SE Lincolnshire) and Saltby (NE Leicestershire), southwest and south of Grantham. Two ammonites from the Northampton Sand Formation at Hungerton are illustrated. Four ironstone quarries near Grantham (Fig. 1) were below the Whitby Mudstone Formation (formerly Upper visited during an excursion from the British Association Lias). The ironstone, a slightly calcareous sideritic ore, meeting in Nottingham in 1966. One, at Denton Park in was greenish-black when unweathered, and whitish or SE Lincolnshire, was worked for the Marlstone Rock grey-brown when weathered. Cross-bedding indicated Formation (Upper Pliensbachian – Toarcian; formerly an easterly transport direction, similar to that recorded the Marlstone Rock Bed). The others, at Colsterworth and Hungerton in SE Lincolnshire and Saltby in NE Leicestershire, were worked for the Northampton Sand Formation (Aalenian; formerly the Northampton Sand Ironstone Formation). The lithostratigraphic nomenclature follows Cox et al. (1999) and Carney et al. (2004), with equivalents used in older literature given in parenthesis at the first mention. The Denton and Hungerton sites are now infilled, but exposures remained at Colsterworth and Saltby in 2008. Photographs taken in 1966 record a once- important extractive industry in its last years. (All grid references cited below are [SK]). Denton Park Pit, in Marlstone Rock The history of working at Denton Park [857317], the most easterly of the quarries in this formation in the Woolsthorpe area, was documented by Tonks (1992).

  • The Arctic Lite Guid
    THE ARCTIC UTE GUIDE TO GLIDING "If you visit a gliding club on any sunny summer morning, you are likely to see lots of pilots with maps in their hands and intense expressions on their faces. They will be getting their gliders ready for take-off and may well be pouring gallons of water into their wings or muttering incomprehensible gliding jargon into their radio microphones. Very Strange! "If you watch one of the gliders get airborne and follow it closely (binoculars help) you may be able to spot when the pilot starts circling. Within a few minutes the glider will have climbed away until it has become a dot in the sky a few thousand feet up. Then the circling stops and the pilot sets off on course and rapidly disappears from sight. "Just about when you are enjoying your picnic tea, you may notice the same glider come in to land. The canopy opens and the pilot steps out, takes off his parachute and stretches himself hugely. He needs to because he has been cooped up in his cramped cockpit ever since you saw him disappear five or six hours ago. And in that time he may well have flown 200 or 300 miles following a route that he decided after listening to the early morning weather forecast. It all seems quite incredible and maybe a bit mystifying. "This Guide to Gliding has been published in collaboration with Arctic Lite lager who have given considerable financial support to the British Gliding Association for which we are most grateful.

  • 5.0 Viking Way Denton Prohibition of Driving Order
    Report Reference: 5.0 Regulatory and Other Committee Open Report on behalf of Paul Coathup, Assistant Director (Highways & Transportation) Report to: Planning and Regulation Committee Date: 10 April 2012 Denton to Skillington, The Drift / Viking Way - Subject: Proposed Prohibition of Driving Order KeyDecision decision? Reference: No Summary: This report details the background to and objections received against an Order prohibiting driving along a section of The Drift / Viking Way between Denton and Skillington. Recommendation(s): That the objections are overruled and the order as advertised be implemented. Background 1. The Drift is an ancient highway that follows the boundary between Lincolnshire and Leicestershire. It also forms part of the long distance footpath known as The Viking Way. A section of The Drift between the A607 and Saltby airfield passes through King Lud’s Entrenchment which together with The Drift in this area forms part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). 2. The Drift / Viking Way SSSI in this location was designated because it is one of the best remaining examples of limestone grassland in Lincolnshire. 3. Sections of this area had, in the past, deteriorated but following discussions with Natural England and Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust, and an extensive scheme of restoration works was undertaken funded by Lincolnshire County Council Highways Department. Works included removal of areas of scrub, felling of some trees and re-establishing the calcareous grasslands. This was in accordance with Lincolnshire County Councils duties under the Wildlife & Countryside Act, that is, to take reasonable steps to further the conservation and enhancement of Sites of Special Scientific Interest.

    Agenda Item 5. Report Reference: Regulatory and Other Committee Open Report on behalf of Richard Wills Report to: Planning and Regulation Committee Date: 4 November 2013 Denton to Skillington, The Drift/Viking Way - Proposed Subject: Prohibition of Driving Order KeyDecision decision? Reference: No Summary: This paper updates the Committee on progress since approval was given to consult to permanently prohibit all motorised vehicles from using this length of road for all of the year rather than the seasonal closure. Recommendation(s): It is recommended that the Committee consider the options outlined in Section 3 and that it determines which of these options should be implemented under Section 22(1) (viii) of the Road Traffic Regulations Act. 1. Background 1.1 The Drift is an ancient highway that follows the boundary between Lincolnshire and Leicestershire. It also forms part of the long distance footpath known as The Viking Way. A section of The Drift between the A607 and Saltby airfield passes through King Lud's Entrenchment which, together with The Drift in this area, forms part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). 1.2 The Drift / Viking Way SSSI in this location was designated because it is one of the best remaining examples of limestone grassland in Lincolnshire. 1.3 Sections of this area had, in the past, deteriorated with a suggestion that this had been caused by the use of motorised vehicles. Following discussions with Natural England and Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust, an extensive scheme of restoration works was undertaken. Works included removal of areas of scrub, felling of some trees and re-establishing the calcareous grasslands.

  • Mistletoe Cottage Welcome to Mistletoe Cottage
    MISTLETOE COTTAGE WELCOME TO MISTLETOE COTTAGE Pull onto the large gravelled driveway – able to host at least three vehicles – and you’re immediately struck by the gorgeous cottage garden framing the home. This pretty front garden is perfect for the green-fingered to show off their passion, and provides an idyllic spot to enjoy a continental breakfast in the summer. Through the main front door, you are welcomed by the Victorian entrance room with exposed beams, currently used as a spacious yet cosy library area. However, it could become an additional dining space or an elegant entrance room to proudly display family heirlooms and photos. Turning right, the 18th Century sitting room, beamed, yet with enough headroom for even the taller members of the family, has a cosy ambience. It’s just right for winter’s nights by the open fire, while the French doors leading onto the patio make for perfect summer indoor/outdoor living too. Deep windowsills hark back to the home’s historical origins and allow space for pictures, books, flowers, or curios of your choice to make this wonderful space your own. Mistletoe Cottage is an English country gem nestled in the tranquil and well-connected village of Saltby in North Leicestershire, boasting fabulous views across the glorious countryside. Built as one of a pair of grooms cottages on the Belvoir Estate in the 18th Century, the home has been extended over time to create an enchanting family home with four double bedrooms, off-road parking and gardens. 2 Mistletoe Cottage Mistletoe Cottage 3 Through the kitchen, a doorway leads into a large, light and airy family room, tucked away from the action without feeling disconnected from the rest of the household.

  • The Lincolnshire Gentry and the Wars of the Roses
    The Lincolnshire Gentry and the Wars of the Roses Jonathan S. Mackman D.Phil. Thesis University of York Department of History August 1999 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the impact of the Wars of the Roses upon the people, government and landed structure of a hitherto under-studied shire. It is intended as a bridge between the numerous post-McFarlanite county studies of recent years and the specific issue of the Wars, a conflict generally approached from a central perspective. It begins by examining Lincolnshire's landed society during the later Lancastrian period, stressing the county's political isolation, the sheer size and collective wealth of its population, but also the lack of any dominant political force. It examines the nature of local government, particularly the changing social profile of local officers, and also the issue of local violence. In particular, it highlights the effects of faction and manipulation of justice in an otherwise relatively law-abiding county, and the influence of the shires upon the descent into warfare. The thesis then addresses Lincolnshire's experience of the Wars themselves, particularly stressing the limited participation of the resident population. The Lincolnshire Rebellion of 1470 is described in detail, this shadowy episode being carefully reconstructed in order to gain a fuller understanding of its importance. This is then tied in with a discussion of how the Wars had only a limited effect on Lincolnshire's social and landed structures, yet radically altered its relationship with the Crown. It highlights the tension between the established order and the Yorkist administrative elite, and the way this became embodied in a local power-struggle which, it is argued, led to the Rebellion and ultimately contributed to Edward IV's own deposition.

  • Melton District Profile
    MELTON DISTRICT PROFILE JANUARY 2010 JSNA District Level Report JSNA findings for Melton 1. Demography In 2007 there were an estimated 49,200 people resident in Melton. 95% of the population is white British, 2% is white other. Melton is slightly affected by socio-economic deprivation than Leicestershire as a whole with 9% of the population living in neighbourhoods that have been classified as deprived nationally (4th quintile). However there are no residents within the most deprived quintile within this district. Whilst this is slightly higher than the value for Leicestershire it is below the national average of 20% of people. Priority Neighbourhoods Melton has three priority neighbourhoods, all within Melton Mowbray. Maps of the priority neighbourhoods are available on the Leicestershire Statistics and Research Online website: http://www.lsr-online.org/reports/leicestershire_laa_priority_neighbourhoods 2. Housing and accommodation needs Melton Borough is particularly susceptible to an outward, generalised impression of wealth when looking at average incomes or house prices. In fact, this disguises a significant number of lower income households who are highly likely to need assistance in the local housing market. In some of the rural areas privately rented housing exists as an intermediate form of affordable housing, often with links to large landed estates within the borough. Melton Borough is a largely rural area and. Local people are at risk of being priced out of owner occupation in rural areas because of over development of large, executive houses marketed at a high premium to wealthy commuters. There is evidence of erosion of the local economies in rural centres due to lack of use, made worse by service providers such as shop workers, cleaners, and traders being unable to afford to live in the area.
