Bell The startling title of the Nursery School Association’s ‘Forgotten Two Millions’ (1965) stimulated a determination to trace the origins of this tragedy, and to ascertain the historical struggle involved, both nationally and in my home region of North East England. NSA publications and records of voluntary bodies together with local and national archives helped trace the growth and activities of the nursery school movement from 1923 and, together with the Tyneside Nursery School Association, gave an unbiased account of pioneering work in the region. Material was analysed, described, and evaluated, to explore inherent strength and weaknesses. Theory and practice of prominent educators and thinkers was examined to appraise the attention given to the ‘under fives’ and to concepts of childhood. The progression of the changing role of women in society, changing social and economic conditions in the 19th and 20th centuries and the pioneering work of enlightened philanthropic individuals demonstrated that early years education never existed in a vacuum. The slow ‘stop’/’start’ growth in provision, however, was shown to have reflected the state of local and national finance and, indeed, can still be seen today. Seven nursery schools in contrasting areas of industrial heritage of the North East were chosen as example case-studies, spread over a period of 30 turbulent years. The first was established during WW1 clearly in the vanguard with the McMillans and before the government legislation of 1918. Two were war-time nurseries and illustrated the emergency measures set up in 1942 to provide an essential service for mothers engaged in war work. All provided source material in their chronological, educational histories. The Plowden Report offered a new hope for the future. Any subsequent developments in the care and nurture of ‘under fives’ would therefore depend on the Government‘s political will, its financial allocations and socio-economic challenges, again seen today in the current climate. It is suggested that present day or future participants in any initiative on behalf of the ‘under fives’ may gain inspiration from this research or similar regional studies.

I am also grateful for the forbearance and support of my family who have attempted to instruct me in the wizardry of new technology and who trusted my perseverance to pursue this long-time interest in ‘forgotten children’ 1 Introduction The publication of the Nursery School Association’s ‘Forgotten Two million’1in 1965 aroused feelings of injustice which I felt should be aired in an exploration of the history of provision for these ‘forgotten under-fives’, especially in the North East of England – an area well known to me for its extreme economic deprivation. Such a study has not previously been undertaken. These ‘Forgotten Children’2 reinforced the lowly place and lack of concern for children in former societies.

  • Application Report – 20/01379/Ful
    APPLICATION REPORT – 20/01379/FUL Validation Date: 22 December 2020 Ward: Astley And Buckshaw Type of Application: Full Planning Proposal: Erection of four dwellings with garages and an additional triple garage adjacent Buckshaw Hall Location: Buckshaw Hall Knight Avenue Buckshaw Village Chorley PR7 7HW Case Officer: Caron Taylor Applicant: Mr Chris Langson Agent: LMP Ltd Consultation expiry: 23 June 2021 Decision due by: 16 February 2021 RECOMMENDATION 1. It is recommended that planning permission is granted subject to conditions and a S106 legal agreement to tie the profits from the sale of the proposed dwellings to the renovation of Buckshaw Hall. SITE DESCRIPTION 2. The application site is located within the original curtilage of Buckshaw Hall, a Grade II* listed manor house. The land surrounding the building and the application site has been developed into Buckshaw Village. The site is surrounded by dwellings with those associated with Buckshaw Village located to the north, east and south and Buckshaw Hall itself located to the west, along with a converted barn. Site access is gained from Knight Avenue to the east. Planning permission and listed building consent were granted initially in 2003 to make the building weatherproof and then in 2006 for the conversion of the barn within the grounds of Buckshaw Hall for ancillary accommodation and changes to Buckshaw Hall itself so it can be brought back into use as a dwelling. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 3. Buckshaw Hall itself is believed to date in part, from as early as the mid-1600’s with extensive renovation in the late 19th Century.

  • A Glimpse - the History of Beech Hill
    A GLIMPSE - THE HISTORY OF BEECH HILL Introduction Beech Hill Housing estate is less than 100 years old and therefore historical accounts of the area are at a premium. This article concentrates on the period from the late 18th century to present day with particular emphasis on one of Wigan’s premier families, the Thicknesse family of Beech Hill. Victorian Wigan in the mid 1800’s had a population of around 32,000 which was concentrated mainly to the east and south of the town in Scholes and Wallgate and to the west along Ormskirk Road to Orrell. Although housing was creeping up Gidlow Lane and along Woodhouse Lane towards Martland Mill the west and north of Wigan consisted mainly of agricultural land and was sparsely populated. Over the next 50 years the population of the town was to double with Irish immigrants and workers from all parts of the country coming to the area seeking employment in the coal, cotton, engineering and railway industries. Beech Hill of Old The 1845/46 Ordnance Survey (OS) map of Wigan shows a snapshot of Beech Hill as it was 175 years ago. It was dominated by a large wooded area, presumably of Beech trees, stretching from Beech Hill Lane to modern day Wellfield Road and from Beech Hill Avenue to modern day Acacia Crescent. In the centre was a large house dating from the late 1600's, called appropriately Beech Hill Hall. The hall was in its own grounds with a formal garden, parkland and large ponds. By overlaying a modern map over the 1845 version the location of Beech Hill Hall can be pinpointed as being off Ascroft Avenue in the Cherry Grove cul-de-sac.
