NHLA Newsletter June 2018.Pages working together ~ what we do best Volume 03 Issue 06 June 2018 NOTTINGHAMSHIRE LOCAL HISTORY ASSOCIATION NEWSLETTER 16th Annual Great Nottingham Inclosure Walk The 2018 Inclosure Walk on Sunday 1st July 2018 will start near Wilford Toll Bridge, at 1.30pm. Meet at the Meadows Embankment tram stop, Clifton Line. The walk will be led by JOHN PARKER, Chair of NOTTINGHAMSHIRE LOCAL HISTORY ASSOCIATION This walk goes through all the Recreation Grounds allotted to the townsfolk when their commonable Fields and Meadows were enclosed to give more space for desperately needed housing. No other town in Britain has anything like it. Much of this ground was laid out as walks but there was also recognition that cricket and other team games and events needed to be catered for as well as play-space; the regular Sunday walks of the family were just as important for the Town’s health. The walk finishes at the Inclosure Oaks, (yes, there are now two), on the Forest, where a certificate will be presented to those completing the route. Guides will be available to buy on the day, or from the tourist centre, for your future use. The Forest cafe will be open at the end, highly recommended.

To remember and reflect on the days, months and years after November 1918, we would like you to share your stories and pictures with us. We are particularly interested in the lasting consequences of the war on the local life in villages, towns and cities across our region. • Did the Armistice raise expectations for a better tomorrow? • How did communities choose to commemorate? • What were the lasting social, physical, and mental impacts on families and individuals? Articles should normally be around 1000-2000 words long, with a strong local/regional connection. We’d like contributions by 15th November 2018. For more information contact: [email protected] NOTTINGHAMSHIRE LOCAL HISTORY ASSOCIATION !3 working together ~ what we do best Volume 03 Issue 06 June 2018 Prison History Prison History is a database which contains information on nearly 850 penal institutions which existed in 19th century England, including around 420 local prisons and 380 lock ups. For each institution, there is information about its operational dates, jurisdiction, location, population statistics, the primary and secondary sources which mention it, and a list of all the relevant and surviving archival documents which we have been able to find in repositories based in England. On accessing Prison History, users can either search for specific prisons or various types of prisons, or browse the lists of archival materials. One of the core aims of Prison History is to emphasise the importance of the local prison (and lock ups) in nineteenth-century society. It is an institution that has been largely neglected in the major studies of nineteenth-century imprisonment and it is time to redress the imbalance. The hope is that Prison History will be a useful resource for local historians, and also that local historians will want to get involved with this project, to help make the database an even better tool for local history, and, through emphasising the importance of prisons within nineteenth-century communities, to demonstrate the importance of local history research. www.prisonhistory.org Faces of Change: Votes for Women National Portrait Gallery exhibition at National Trust’s The Workhouse, Southwell From 29 April to 22 July 2018, visitors can view the exhibition between 12:00 and 16:00 in The Workhouse.

NOTTINGHAMSHIRE LOCAL HISTORY ASSOCIATION !4 working together ~ what we do best Volume 03 Issue 06 June 2018 The Chilwell Disaster 1918, Alan Dance Join us on Tuesday 14th August 2018 10.00 to 12.00 at 1st Floor Central Library, Angel Row, Nottingham for a talk on the Chilwell Munitions Factory and the Explosion of 1918 with Alan Dance, local historian and author of “Canary Child” and “Narrow Marsh” The Chilwell ammunition factory was the country’s most productive shell filling factory during the First World War. It was set up by Viscount Chetwynd in 1915 to try and counter the superior German firepower in the trench warfare.He chose a site near Nottingham that was flat with good road and rail links, but also in a dip to shield any explosions.During the course of the war, the Chilwell factory supplied over half the shells fired, including most of those used in the battle of the Somme. 10,000 people worked in the Chilwell munitions factory including many women. They were known as the Canary Girls who often worked up to 12 hour shifts for 30 shillings a week. In July 1918 there was a devastating explosion in the mixing plant at Chilwell. 134 people died and 250 were injured by the blast that flattened much around the site. Following tea/coffee from 10.00 the talk will start at 10.30 You can pre-register in person at the Local Studies Library, phone 0115 9152870, or by email to: [email protected] East Midlands History and Heritage We still have are a small number of copies of the January 2018 edition of the East Midlands History and Heritage magazine - if you would like some of these please email me at [email protected] NOTTINGHAMSHIRE LOCAL HISTORY ASSOCIATION !5 working together ~ what we do best Volume 03 Issue 06 June 2018 Unknown Mapperley?, Bob Visit to the John Taylor & Co Massey, Gedling Borough Bell Foundry at Loughborough, Heritage Festival 2018 Lambley HS A 1.5hr History walk around Mapperley On Tuesday 3rd July 2018 there will be a on Sunday 1st July 2018 5.30pm Starting guided tour of the works and the Bell from Haywood Rd Community Centre and Foundry Museum ending at The Bread and Bitter This event is FREE but you need to book a place.

Our counter proposal accepts 15 of the ward boundaries proposed by the LGBCE and seeks to bring together the remaining boundaries suggested by the LGBCE to maintain the important principle of multi member wards. iv) Our proposed warding pattern meets the commission’s statutory criteria in respect of improving electoral equality, representing community identities and interests and providing for convenient and effective local government.

  • Chapter One: Introduction 1
    Feminism, citizenship and social activity: The role and importance of local women’s organisations, Nottingham 1918-1969 Samantha Clements, B.A., M.A. Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2008 ABSTRACT This local study of single-sex organisations in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire is an attempt to redress some of the imbalanced coverage given to this area of history thus far. A chronological study, it examines the role, importance and, to some extent, impact of a wide range of women’s organisations in the local context. Some were local branches of national organisations, others were specifically concerned with local issues. The local focus allows a challenge to be made to much current thought as to the strength of a “women’s movement” in the years between the suffrage movement and the emergence of a more radical form of feminism in the 1970s. The strength of feminist issues and campaigning is studied in three periods – the inter-war period, the Second World War and its immediate aftermath, and the 1950s and 1960s. The first two periods have previously been studied on a national level but, until recently, the post-Second World war era has been written off as overwhelmingly domestic and therefore unconstructive to the achievement of any feminist aims. This study suggests that, at a local level, this is not the case and that other conclusions reached about twentieth century feminism at a national level are not always applicable to the local context. The study also goes further than attempting to track interest in equality feminism in the mid years of the century by discussing the importance of citizenship campaigns and the social dimension of membership of women’s organisations.

This week new barriers were installed at Park Road / Lenton Road on the Lenton / Park Estate boundary. I’d like to seek the information you have on how these came to be installed please. The barriers were installed following complaints from the Park Estate, neighbouring residents and other users of this path linking Park Road with Lenton Road. The path is at the boundary of the Castle and Lenton and Wollaton East wards. These complaints have been ongoing since September 2019. Following the initial complaints officers carried out site observations and discussed the proposals with the Council’s Rights of Way Officer. It is also worth bearing in mind that this path is not public highway or a legal cycle route, it is designated a public footpath and is part of the Park Estate. Cyclist have permission to use the path from the owners, The Park Estate Limited. This does not include motorbikes or mopeds.

  • Nottingham) the Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14Th Floor Millbank Tower London SW1P 4QP
    ww.thelentoncentre.org.uk Review Officer (Nottingham) The Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14th Floor Millbank Tower London SW1P 4QP By email: [email protected] 14 January 2018 Dear Sirs Local Government Boundary Changes in Nottingham – Dunkirk and Lenton Ward I would like to comment on your draft recommendations for Nottingham City. I am writing on behalf of the Board of Trustees of the Lenton Centre of which I am the chair. The Lenton Centre is a social enterprise running a leisure centre and community centre in New Lenton with its origins in the Lenton Community Association. We have a longstanding understanding of the Lenton area through our diverse membership and many years of advocacy for the local area. The Board of Trustees has run the Lenton Centre since 2004 and sends a representative to the Council’s Area Committee 4 meetings. The Lenton Centre falls within Dunkirk and Lenton ward but also has strong links with residents and groups within the Park Estate. As well as many of our customers coming from the Park Estate, residents there also for example organise a biennial open garden trail and some of the proceeds raised for charity are always donated to the Lenton Centre. Our Board strongly disagree that Dunkirk and Lenton ward should be combined with Wollaton East and Lenton Abbey. Unlike Lenton and the Park Estate, the areas do not share a common identity and a combined area would not result in effective and convenient local government. Lenton and Dunkirk is a historic area dating back to the Domesday Book and is home to many residents from all parts of the world.

  • Nottingham) the Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14Th Floor Millbank Tower London SW1P 4QP
    Monday 22nd January 2018 Review Officer (Nottingham) The Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14th Floor Millbank Tower London SW1P 4QP Dear Review Officer I would like to comment on your draft recommendations for Nottingham City. I live in the current ward of Dunkirk and Lenton. I am a primary school teacher, chair of a residents’ association and also a community representative at the Area 4 Committee. I strongly disagree that the ward of Dunkirk and Lenton should be combined with Wollaton East and Lenton Abbey. I also disagree with the recommendations for single member wards in other parts of Nottingham City. This could leave a community reliant on an ineffective councillor and without a voice to speak for them. I believe the ideal is a 2-councillor or 3- councillor ward which ensures accountability but also a choice for residents who need assistance. A 2-member ward often involves 1 female and 1 male councillor which I believe serves the population well. I was born in Lenton to a Jewish father who escaped Nazi Germany in the 1930s and later married my mother in 1970. I now live in the same house my late parents raised me in. The area in which I was raised was home to other refugees like my father and many residents from Poland, Italy, the West Indies and the Sub Continent as well as indigenous English. Similarly, the Park Estate was also home to Jewish refugees and other international residents. Today, both areas continue to be home to residents from all over the world.
