Broad: ‘Northumberland at War’. At the Battle of Towton in 1461 the Lancastrian forces of Henry VI were defeated by the Yorkist forces of Edward IV. However Henry VI, with his wife, son and a few knights, fled north and found sanctuary in Scotland, where, in exchange for the town of Berwick, the Scots granted them finance, housing and troops. Henry was therefore able to maintain a presence in Northumberland and his supporters were able to claim that he was in fact as well as in theory sovereign resident in Northumberland.

At its heart is the Heritage at Risk Register, an online database containing details of each site known to be at risk. It is analysed and updated annually and this leaflet summarises the results. Heritage at Risk teams are now in each of our nine local offices, delivering national expertise locally. The good news is that we are on target to save 25% (1,137) of the sites that were on the Register in 2010 by 2015. From Clifford’s Fort, North Tyneside to the Church of St Andrew, Haughton le Skerne, this success is down to good partnerships with owners, developers, the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), Natural England, councils and local groups. It will be increasingly important to build on these partnerships to achieve the overall aim of reducing the number of sites on the Register.

    Annex B Welbeck Portlands

    ANNEX B WELBECK AND THE PORTLANDS Obituary - Lady Anne Cavendish-Bentinck As a debutante, she was front-page news when she was told to accept the hand in marriage of the nobleman destined to be prince regent of Belgium. But wilful Lady Anne Cavendish- Bentinck refused him , declining to get out of bed when the luckless suitor arrived at her stately home.She later set her sights on the handsome Duke of Leeds, but her family refused her permission to wed and she defiantly vowed never to marry anyone else. Extraordinarily, she kept her promise for the rest of her life. Equally unusually, the death of Lady Anne at the age of 92 has so far gone publicly unrecorded by her closest relatives - no death notices, no obituaries. All the more curious because Lady Anne, who died on 21 December 2008 was a cousin of the Queen Mother and one of the richest women in the land. She possessed a fabulous treasure trove of art, including works by Stubbs and Van Dyke, plus a huge silver collection held in a strong room as large as a small house.Lady Anne, the largest private landowner in Nottinghamshire, inherited 62,000 acres including the Welbeck Abbey estate, plus a further 45,000 acres in Scotland, and Bothal Castle in Northumberland. She also owned 30 almost priceless acres around Harley Street in Central London. Her father, the seventh Duke of Portland, made sure that the remote relation who succeeded him in the dukedom would receive nothing from the estate. The title died out in 1980.
