  • HELMDON VOICE Winter 2014
    HELMDON VOICE www.helmdon.com Winter 2014 New stone wall marks the Station Road entrance to Helmdon The end of January saw the unveiling of a stone wall at the top of Station Road. The structure consists of a pillar on one side of the road and a pillar and small wall on the other and was designed by Clare Nash, an architect who lives in the village, and who gave her time voluntarily. The majority of the stone used is Helmdon stone, kindly donated by Mike and Julia O’Brien. Patrick Gartside, a local builder with family connections in Helmdon, constructed the wall which commemorates the Queen’s Jubilee of 2012. Patrick Gartside and Clare Nash It was funded both from reserves held by Helmdon Parish Council and from a grant from South Northants Council under the New Homes Bonus Scheme. HYHO has also pledged £200. The aim of the project is to enhance the environment at the village entrance and hopefully to deter drivers from dropping litter. SNC consults on the Local Plan South Northamptonshire Council (SNC) has commenced the preparation of a Local Plan which will be the main land- use planning document for the district. It will guide the decision-making process for future planning applications across South Northamptonshire, including those in Helmdon. SNC consulted Helmdon Parish Council about the plan and the parish council responded using information and evidence gathered by the Helmdon Parish Plan Group (HPPG). The HPPG met twice before Christmas and once afterwards to review data gathered for the original Helmdon Parish Plan (2003/4) and for the Parish Plan Refresh (2011) as well as looking at feedback from residents submitted over Christmas (thanks to those people that responded!).

Such was their enthusiasm that the work has expanded into looking at other aspects, notably the Roll of Honour of Old Boys of Helmdon School Who Served in the First World War. First published in 2014, this 2016 update includes newly discovered facts and stories. The most relevant, up-to-date information available has been put together and can be printed off as a booklet. It is to be hoped that it will not only add to the history of Helmdon but that it will go some way to honour the great sacrifice made by those village servicemen. The authors apologise that some entries do not contain as much detail as others; available records are not always fruitful.

Heritage Trail Leonard Jerrams & Since the relocation of large manufacturers to Banbury in the 1950s the village has developed with much new housing, however many William Wheeler. older 17th and 18th century cottages are hidden in the lanes leading away from the main roads. Originally an agricultural village which also supported a cottage textile industry, nowadays the residents are generally employed in nearby towns or commute along the M40 corridor. Northants place names are mostly Anglo-Saxon and Danish. ‘Tun’ or ‘Ton’ was the saxon word for an enclosed farm, then later a village or town. After the Norman Conquest the lords added their family name to the manor they had been awarded. Simon de Chenduit held the manor in a 12th century survey; John de Curci held a part in 1205. The name is ultimately derived from medieval latin, ‘casnetum’ (in old French becomes ‘chesnai’), which means oak grove. Originally the village was divided in two; Upper or Church Middleton Originally produced as a Millenium Project 2000 by Nancy Long. and a hamlet a quarter of a mile to the east; Lower or Nether Updated and reprinted 2016. Middleton. The village was divided in this way as early as the reign of Henry II (1154-1189).
