Treasure Act Annual Report 2010 Presented to Parliament Pursuant to Section 12 of the Treasure Act 1996 Treasure Act Annual Report 2010 Presented to Parliament pursuant to Section 12 of the Treasure Act 1996 November 2012 Treasure Act Annual Report 2010 Presented to Parliament pursuant to Section 12 of the Treasure Act 1996 November 2012 i Minister’s foreword v Contents Introduction vii Treasure cases 2010 viii Tables of Treasure cases 2010 xiii Update on 2009 Treasure cases xlviii © Queen’s Printer and Controller of HMSO 2012 Edited by I Richardson, M Lewis, H Orange & C Lyons Published by the Department of Portable Antiquities and Treasure, British Museum ii iii Minister’s foreword It is my pleasure to introduce the Treasure Act Annual Report 2010. I would also like to acknowledge the valuable contribution of the Treasure Valuation Committee, The Treasure Act 1996 continues to be a great which provided valuation recommendations for success, ensuring that the most significant over 270 treasure cases from 2010. This summer archaeological discoveries are housed in public marks the first year of Professor Lord Renfrew of museums for the benefit of all. 2010 was a record Kaimsthorn’s Chairmanship of the Committee, and he year, with the number of potential Treasure finds has brought a wealth of archaeological knowledge reported increasing to 860 in England and Wales, and experience to the post. I am thankful for the a 10.5% increase since the previous year. Of these services of all of the Committee members, who items, 299 have been (or are to be) acquired by voluntarily provide their time and expertise. museums. It is especially satisfying that the number of interested parties waiving their right to a reward for Treasure finds remains high, with 86 individuals waiving their Ed Vaizey share in 70 cases. These donations have allowed 37 Minister for Culture, Communications museums to acquire finds that may otherwise have and the Creative Industries not been available for the public to study and enjoy. November 2012 Similarly, many museum acquisitions have been made possible only through the kind assistance of funding bodies, particularly the Art Fund, Headley Trust, Heritage Lottery Fund, National Heritage Memorial Fund and the V&A Purchase Grant Fund. I am extremely grateful to these organisations for their recognition of the importance of archaeological finds and their support of museums’ efforts to acquire them. I am also impressed with local fundraising campaigns, and it is heartening to see so many individuals and organisations in local communities supporting the acquisition of Treasure items and investing in their heritage. There are many others to whom I am indebted for the continued success of the Treasure Act, in particular the Portable Antiquities Scheme and its local network of Finds Liaison Officers (FLOs), to whom most finds of Treasure are reported. The FLOs’ role is vital in informing finders of treasure and landowners of archaeological best practice and their responsibilities under the law and they are also indispensable in facilitating the administration of Treasure cases. Together with curators, scientists and conservators at the British Museum and National Museum Wales, they also provide expert reports on Treasure finds for Coroners. I would also like to thank Coroners and their staff for their diligence in holding Treasure inquests. The Department of Portable Antiquities and Treasure at the British Museum supports Coroners in England and serves as the secretariat for the Treasure Valuation Committee and I am grateful for their continued excellent work. iv v Introduction Under the Treasure Act 1996, finders have a legal obligation to report all finds of potential Treasure. For a summary see finds.org.uk/treasure or the leafletAdvice for Finders of Archaeological Objects, Including Treasure. The Act allows a national or local museum to acquire Treasure finds for public benefit. If this happens, a reward is paid, which is (normally) shared equally between the finder and landowner, though the interested parties may wish to waive their rights to a reward, enabling museums to acquire such finds at no or reduced cost. Rewards are fixed at the full market value of the find, determined by the Secretary of State on the advice of an independent panel of experts known as the Treasure Valuation Committee. Although Treasure finds account for a relatively small proportion of archaeological finds found in England and Wales by the public, any archaeological find may be recorded with the Portable Antiquities Scheme: this data is published online at finds.org.uk. The Scheme and its network of local archaeologists – experts in recording small finds, known as Finds Liaison Officers – play an increasingly important role in the operation of the Treasure Act, advising finders of their legal obligations, providing advice on the process and writing reports on potential Treasure finds for local coroners. Organisation The administration of the Treasure process is undertaken by the Department of Portable Antiquities and Treasure at the British Museum, which employs a Treasure Registrar and four Assistant Treasure Registrars, one of whom is part-time. This work involves the preparation of Treasure cases for inquest (at a Coroner’s Court), the handling of disclaimed cases, the secretariat of the Treasure Valuation Committee, and the payment of rewards to finders/ landowners.

  • CEF - Covid-19 Community Group Support Funding September 2020
    CEF - Covid-19 Community Group Support Funding September 2020 Offering financial assistance to local volunteer groups and networks who are responding to and recovering from the Covid-19 crisis. Please note the funding should only be used for such associated costs. Aim of the funding The aim of The CEF Covid-19 community support funding is to provide a ‘community float’. This will enable local voluntary groups to access financial assistance to support their activities that help communities to connect again. How do community networks access the funding? The funding is held by the Community Support Organisations (CSO) to administer on behalf of Selby District Council. The CSO will be responsible for coordinating and supporting a network of local voluntary community groups. Under this agreement the CSO will agree a simple payment system with each group across the CSOs network can access the fund. Each group that receives funding will need to produce proof of expenditure (i.e. receipts/invoices.) What expenditure is eligible? The funding can be used flexibly to enable groups to operate smoothly without financial barriers. How the funding has been used will be reviewed / discussed at each reporting stage but it is reasonable to conclude that this is likely to be: . Volunteer expenses (might be mileage, refreshments) in relation to covid-19 response/recovery activity . PPE (gloves, sanitisers etc) . Cleaning/sanitary equipment/items . Administrative/marketing supplies (printing, stamps, stationary etc) . Equipment to enable delivery of services (i.e. phone credit, games, social distance signage) What is not eligible? . Personal payments or financial assistance of any kind.

  • Annual Review of Locality Budgets
    North Yorkshire County Council Corporate and Partnerships Overview and Scrutiny Committee 7 June 2021 Annual review of County Councillor Locality Budgets 2020/21 1. Purpose of the report 1.1. To review the operation of County Councillor Locality Budgets in the financial year 2020/21. 2. Background 2.1. Locality Budgets enable County Councillors to respond to local needs by recommending the allocation of small amounts of funding to support projects or activities that directly promote the social, economic or environmental wellbeing of the communities they represent. 2.2. The Locality Budgets scheme seeks to ensure that County Councillors have a clear role in the allocation of funding in their Division within the criteria and process agreed by the Executive. This role includes actively promoting the scheme within their Division so that the money is allocated to meet appropriate local needs. 2.3. Because the allocation of funding is an executive decision, decisions are made by the Executive Member with responsibility for Stronger Communities, taking into account the information received and the recommendation of the relevant County Councillor. 2.4. Transparency is a significant feature of the scheme: County Councillors are required to declare all relevant interests when making a recommendation, including membership or other connections with organisations that will benefit from or manage a Locality Budget award Awards are published on the County Council website at https://www.northyorks.gov.uk/county-councillor-locality-budgets 1 OFFICIAL 3. Summary of approved recommendations in 2020/21 3.1. In 2020/21 each County Councillor had a Locality Budget allocation of £10,000.

  • Enclosure & Agricultural Improvement in North-West Lincolnshire from Circa 1600 to 1850
    ENCLOSURE & AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENT IN NORTH-WEST LINCOLNSHIRE FROM CIRCA 1600 TO 1850. Thomas M. Smith, MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2012 i Abstract This study sets out to establish the link between enclosure and agricultural improvement in a group of parishes in north-west Lindsey, Lincolnshire between the sixteenth century and the mid-nineteenth century. In particular it emphasises the continuity of enclosure history through time, rather than concentrating only on the period of parliamentary enclosure as has often been the case in the past, and on links to agricultural improvement which include land reclamation, draining and warping. It shows that a simple explanation of enclosure in terms of driving up rents and allowing individual farmers to take their own farming decisions, fails to take into account the particular local circumstances of this area. Using a combination of enclosure documents and related material such as glebe terriers, land tax assessments, census materials, the 1801 agricultural returns and estate papers it sets out to show how agricultural improvement transformed both the landscape and the farming techniques in this area. In this process it covers a range of related topics including landownership, population, and the socio-economic structure of the villages of north-west Lindsey. It shows clearly that in this area enclosure is as much as anything associated with land drainage, and with improvements brought about by warping. These processes were interwoven, and separating enclosure out as a single movement underestimates the complexity of the farming arrangements required to ensure the most productive farming in this area.
