  • Breedon on the Hill Stuart Galloway Version 2
    U3A WTT Breedon on the Hill Stuart Galloway Version 2 Route Summary The walk starts in the car park of Breedon Priory Garden Centre. Postcode is DE73 8AZ, which oddly takes you to a road opposite the entrance. Plenty of parking and Beth’s Kitchen on the same site has nice food at reasonable prices. (Toilets next to the café). Route Overview Category: Walking Length: 7.380 km / 4.61 mi Parking: Breedon Priory Garden Centre Date Published: 26th October 2016 Difficulty: Medium Rating: Unrated Surface: Average Refreshments: Beth's Kitchen Last Modified: 26th October 2016 Description A circular walk around Breedon that takes in the history of the area. Waypoints Breedon (52.80286; -1.40512) The name Breedon on the Hill is derived from the Celtic word bre for hill and the English word dun for hill. Hence in its current form the name combines three forms of the word hill. Briudun, an early spelling, has been traced from AD 731. Medieval Hagiography Manuscripts record four saints buried in Breedon-on-the-Hill. They are Friduricus, donor of the Mercian Royal Monastery built in Breedon during the seventh century, King Eardwulf of Northumbria, and relatively unknown Anglo-Saxon Saint Beonna of Breedon and Cotta of Breedon. In 1874, a branch of the Midland Railway was built through the eastern part of the parish and Tonge and Breedon railway station was built at Tonge. In 1980 British Railways closed the line and thereafter the track was dismantled. 1 / 11 The track bed through the parish is now part of National Cycle Route 6 and is called the Cloud Trail running from Worthington to Derby City Centre.

  • Breedon on the Hill Conservation
    BREEDON ON THE HILL CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL AND STUDY This version of the Appraisal/Study document has been prepared for publication on the Internet. The document does not include the plates (photographs) referred to in the text and Map 1 and Map 2 are provided as separate documents. The full document may be inspected during normal office hours at the Planning and Environment Division reception at the Council Offices in Coalville. Copies of the document may also be purchased from the Council Offices. APRIL 2001 PREFACE The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 requires that Conservation Areas are kept under review (Section 69(2)) and that local planning authorities in exercising their planning powers, pay special attention to the desirability of preserving or enhancing the character or appearance of Conservation Areas (Section 72). Having regard to these requirements and the advice contained in the English Heritage guidance notes 'Conservation Area Practice' and 'Conservation Area Appraisals', the District Council produced a draft Appraisal/Study of the Breedon on the Hill Conservation Area in November 2000. The draft document included proposed alterations to the boundaries of the designated Conservation Area (of September 1992). The draft document was the subject of consultation and publicity over a seven week period between 20 November 2000 and 8 January 2001. Having considered the various representations and recommended amendments the District Council's Executive Board of 3 April 2001 resolved the following :- (1) to approve alterations to the boundaries of the Conservation Area as outlined in the Executive Board report. (2) that subject to the amendments outlined in the Executive Board Report the Conservation Area Appraisal/Study document be adopted as supplementary planning guidance to the policies of the North West Leicestershire Local Plan.

  • The Lost Village of Andreschurch 1
    THE LOST VILLAGE OF ANDRESCHURCH 1 1 2 The Lost Village of Andreschurch 3 4 A E Brown 5 6 7 8 9 Reasons are given for identifying the deserted village of Andreschurch with the 10 present-day village of Breedon-on-the Hill. An attempt is made to interpret the late 1 10th-century land book relating to the Breedon area (S749) in the light of this 2 identification and to assess its significance for the landscape history of the parish. 3 4 5 6 Since the early years of the 19th century the deserted, and lost, village of Andreschurch has 7 figured in historical and topographical writing about Leicestershire. John Nichols, 8 in volume three of his History and Antiquities of the County of Leicester, published in 9 1804, described Andreskirk, Andreschirch or Andreskirkton as ‘formerly a considerable 10 village, situated on the limits of the two lordships of Bredon and Staunton (Harold)’. 1 Having cited various documents in the cartulary of Breedon Priory, and relying on an 2 unpublished manuscript written by Sir William Dugdale in the 17th century, he accepted 3 the conclusion that the Canons of Breedon, having secured full possession from a series of 4 freeholders, ‘depopulated the village, and converted it to their own demesne, so that for 5 many ages the very name as well as the site of it is lost to oblivion’ (1804, 702). He claimed 6 that the foundations of houses were occasionally discovered in the enclosed fields known 7 as the Scalacres, which lie close to the south-western boundary of Breedon parish (Fig 1).
