These rules are registered with the Charity Commissioners under number 237755. OBJECTS OF THE SOCIETY Under the rules of the Society, its objects shall be to promote and foster the study of the history, archaeology and antiquities of Nottinghamshire for the public benefit and to promote and foster public knowledge, understanding and appreciation of Nottinghamshire’s history generally. ADDRESS FOR ENQUIRIES Barbara Cast, Honorary Secretary, Little Dower House, Station Road, Bleasby, Nottinghamshire NG14 7FX TRUSTEES The members of Council are considered to be the Trustees of the Society. Details of membership of Council are shown on page 2. MAIN ADVISORS Bankers – HSBC Bank plc, 26 Clumber Street, Nottingham NG1 3GA FUNDS The General Fund can be used for the general furtherance of the aims of the charity. In order to achieve the aims of the Record Section, the Society has the power to print original historical materials, records and manuscripts. The income from the Maurice Barley, Nora Witham, Myles Thoroton Hildyard and Neville Hoskins Funds is used for lectures. The Coddington Fund is for the William Senior Record Series volume, the Centenary Fund for the Heritage Gateway and the Davis Bequest to digitise the Nottinghamshire Bibliography. REPORT OF COUNCIL FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2015 INTRODUCTION AND CHAIR’S REPORT I am grateful to all those who have made this another successful year for the Thoroton Society. As the report shows, in addition to the lectures and excursions which are so familiar to members, the Society also plays a significant role in a range of other areas, including research and heritage conservation. We have an excellent website, a regularly updated county bibliography, and a Heritage Gateway which provides a remarkable range of material for researchers interested in Nottinghamshire’s history. This year we were able to make the first two Geoffrey Bond Research Awards, while the remarkable success of our Record Society volume on Newstead Abbey (edited by Rosalys Coope and Pete Smith) has demonstrated that there is still considerable interest in this great house with its Byron connections – one reason why Nottingham was recently successful in bidding for UNESCO Creative City Network membership as a City of Literature. 4 Of course, there is, inevitably, change. For the October lecture I was able to walk to the end of the road on which I live and catch a tram which dropped me close to Nottingham Mechanics. Trams were a nineteenth century invention, abandoned in Nottingham in 1936, so that Jesse Boot’s plan for a tram route to Beeston along his newly built University Boulevard was never carried out. Yet here they are again, this time displacing the buses which had displaced the trams in the 1930s! What next? Trolley buses? The suburban railway line? I have learned not to make predictions! But there are some important developments ongoing in the county which we look forward to monitoring in the months to come. Of these, I would single out the Nottingham Castle project, which we heard more about from Ted Cantle at the Annual Luncheon, but the list of archaeological work ongoing in Nottinghamshire at present (see further on in this annual report) suggests that a real appetite remains to find out more about our collective past. The Thoroton Society continues to monitor and to contribute where it can to this work, and long may we continue to be involved. John Beckett, Chair of Council PROCEEDINGS OF COUNCIL As required, the Society’s Council met three times in 2015, meeting as usual at Lenton Grove, courtesy of the University of Nottingham. Council has responsibility for overseeing the Society’s business, finance and development. Officers and those representing the Society on various organisations report to Council at each meeting. The Standing Committee, appointed by Council and consisting of the officers, meets on a regular basis and reports to Council at each meeting. It has responsibility for day to day work, detailed consideration of developments such as the Geoffrey Bond Research Grant and the planning of the programme. Members of Council and its officers are elected at the AGM for a period as set down in the Constitution: it is anticipated that all members will be involved in the business of the Society and, to this end, most of them take on specific roles. Barbara Cast, Honorary Secretary HONORARY TREASURER’S REVIEW OF THE YEAR TO 31ST DECEMBER 2015 I am pleased to report once again that the Society’s finances are sound and I have no concerns. Subscription receipts have remained steady; an indication that our membership is being maintained. This year, we have seen a considerable increase in book sales. The legacy of books from the late Bryan Churm raised an additional £502 and sales of Transactions increased to £576, up from £467 in 2014. However, the largest increase in sales was that of Newstead Abbey: A Nottinghamshire Country House 1540-1931 by Rosalys Coope and Pete Smith. The first printing of the book sold out and we had a second print run, which has continued to sell well. In addition to the shop at Newstead Abbey, the volume is available in a number of bookshops, including one in Herefordshire. Sales on our own bookstall at the Saturday lecture meetings have also increased this year, from £229 in 5 2014 to £292 in 2015. I would particularly like to thank the staff of the bookstall - Margaret Trueman, Penny Messenger and Philip Jones - for their sterling work. The Excursions did very well this year, showing a surplus of £1,100 - thank you to Alan Langton for all his work in organising them. The Society’s policy of encouraging members to bring their friends along on Thoroton excursions has proved very successful in helping to fill the coaches. Gift Aid raised £1,301 and interest on our reserves in National Savings and Investments came to £464. On expenditure, the cost of printing of Transactions was slightly down (£3,926, compared with £4,193 in 2014). The cost of printing the Newsletter was also down slightly (£2,036, compared with £2,220 in 2014). Since taking over the role of Editor of the Newsletter I have endeavoured to keep each edition to a maximum of twenty pages, with three or four pages in full colour. The General Fund of the Society at 31st December totalled £25,428. The total assets of the Society at the start of the 2016 financial year amount to £70,785.

The three bedroom accommodation has been significantly upgraded by the current owners in 2008 and is now in a 'ready to move into' condition following a very sympathetic and thorough overhaul. The gardens to the rear are a wonderful haven for those who enjoy entertaining and al fresco dining during those balmy summer evenings; mainly laid to lawn with colourful borders, a picket fence and raised beds. There is a very useful garden shed for day to day equipment and tools. Whilst there is parking to the front of the property, remote control access is also provided to the 'large wrought iron gates, hung on massive pillars', that lead into the grounds of the original Elton Manor and provide gated access to the rear garden that can also be accessed from the rear of Manor Lodge. In previous lives, Manor Lodge has also been used as the village Post Office as well as the local Telephone Exchange - hence the original sign over the front door & the Red K6 Telephone Box (available by separate negotiation).

    Byron Society of America Archive Founded by Marsha M. Manns and Leslie A. Marchand An Inventory Creators: Manns, Marsha M. Marchand, Leslie Alexis, 1900-1999 Title: Byron Society of America Archive Dates: 1953-2005, bulk 1973-2005 Abstract: Correspondence, newspaper clippings, financial files, newsletters, and articles document the founding and activities of the Byron Society of America. The Society brings together Byron scholars and devotees to support scholarship, tours, conferences, lectures, and programs. Extent: 57 boxes, 33 linear feet Language: English Repository: Drew University Library, Madison NJ Historical Note The Byron Society of America was founded in 1973 by Marsha M. Manns and Leslie A. Marchand to further the study of the life and work of Romantic poet George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824). The Society, originally referred to as The American Committee of the Byron Society, chose Byron’s birthday, January 22, for the founding date. The Society brings together Byron scholars throughout the United States and Canada to promote scholarship, correspondence, lectures, exhibits, conferences and tours. Early on, the Society published a newsletter that disseminated new scholarship on Byron and Romanticism. Additionally, the Society encouraged correspondence by connecting members with each other. In 1992, Manns and Marchand began discussions with the University of Delaware to provide institutional support to the Byron Society of America. In 1995, the operations of the Society were moved to the University of Delaware and Dr. Charles E. Robinson 1 became the executive director. Also in 1995, the Byron Society Collection at the University of Delaware was founded by Marsha M. Manns and Leslie A.

  • Additional Settlements Background Paper
    Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies Identification of Additional Settlements Background Paper February 2017 Introduction 1. During February and March 2016 Rushcliffe Borough Council consulted on the Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies Issues and Options. This consultation included potential sites for development on the edge of Rushcliffe’s Key Settlements of Keyworth, Radcliffe on Trent, and Ruddington. 2. Following this consultation and recent planning appeal decisions, it has been established that the borough does not have an identified 5 year supply of deliverable homes. This shortfall has occurred due to delivery being slower than expected at the strategic allocations North of Bingham, Former RAF Newton, East of Gamston/North of Tollerton and South of Clifton. Whilst Rushcliffe Borough Council is working with the landowners and house builders to resolve the issues which are delaying their delivery, it has also recognised that it may require the release of additional housing sites on the edge of the key and non-key settlements (other villages) within the Borough in order to make up for the shortfall in housing land. 3. The allocation of small and medium sized sites for residential development on the edge of Rushcliffe’s other villages may increase the Local Plan’s flexibility and assist the authority in identifying a 5 year supply of deliverable homes. 4. This paper examines the sustainability of the other villages beyond those key settlements that are part of the settlement hierarchy contained within the Core Strategy. It seeks to identify those villages where additional houses could be accommodated. This is based on: the conclusions of the Greater Nottingham Accessibility Study (2010) and the Greater Nottingham Sustainable Locations for Growth Study (2010); and a further assessment of existing community services and facilities as at 2017 (e.g.
