Sotr Combined Chapters V21 Chris & Richard A SON OFOFOF THE RECTORY Appleby Magna at the dawn of the 20th Century Aubrey Moore Expanded edition with a new chapter by Peter Moore Published by Information Byway cic in conjunction with Appleby Environment The Moat House 29 Mawby’s Lane Appleby Magna Swadlincote DE12 7AA First edition published 1982 Alan Sutton Publishing Limited, Gloucester This edition published October 2010: includes additional material by Aubrey Moore and Peter Moore Revised and Edited by Sonia Liff. Layout and Production by Marilyn Dunkelman Copyright © 2010 Peter Moore: original text and additional material, all rights reserved Frontispiece to the original edition (1982) Aubrey Moore is the only surviving son of the Rev. Charles Thomas Moore, rector of Appleby Magna from 1877 to 1922 whose brother was the then squire and owner of the 4500 acre Appleby estate which was in the possession of the Moore family for over three hundred years. “A Son of the Rectory”, at first unnamed, was written as a series of notes for the information of the author’s children and their descendants to put on record some details of the life and history of the family and the village and its inhabitants at the time of his early life at the turn of the century. It was after it had been read by a number of friends that Aubrey was persuaded to offer it for publication as a work of country and autobiographical writing of much more than local interest. Aubrey Moore and his wife, who have recently celebrated their sixty-fifth wedding anniversary, still enjoy an active life in the Oxfordshire village of Bloxham where they have lived for the past twenty-four years. To the memory of my father and mother Aubrey Moore 1982 All those responsible for its production dedicate this new, extended edition to the memory of the author of the original edition, Aubrey Moore, with gratitude, admiration and affection Introduction: 2 nd edition I am honoured and grateful to be asked to introduce a new edition of my father's memoirs of his early life as the son of the Rector of Appleby Magna, in Leicestershire, the Reverend Charles Moore. Charles Moore was Rector of Appleby Magna from 1877 to 1922. The publishers of the first edition made many reductions from Aubrey's original typescript. The first edition soon went out of print, but there has continued to be a steady demand for the book. It was to satisfy this demand that a handful of residents of the village, some time ago, decided to obtain the rights to publish a new edition, incorporating previously unpublished material from the original typescript. My gratitude at being asked to introduce this edition is because it gives me the opportunity to thank the people who have worked so hard, and so skilfully, over the last few years to produce this new, extended edition. A number of people in Appleby have made useful contributions in one way or another, which are greatly appreciated, but all will agree that full credit for the successful production of this new edition must go to Sonia Liff and Marilyn Dunkelman, long term residents of the village. They have used both their literary and their technical skills in incorporating material which the original publishers left out of the first edition, and in inserting explanatory pedigrees and explanatory footnotes. All of these additions greatly enhance Aubrey's original book as, I know, he would be the first to acknowledge with gratitude. Aubrey has an economical writing style, which makes for easy reading. In my own view his rather conversational style enhances, rather than diminishes, the appeal of his story and gives an immediacy to the subjects which Aubrey is recalling and describing, as if he is talking to the reader. Aubrey died in April 1992 at the age of 98, six weeks after his beloved wife, May. They had been married for just under 75 years. Although distressingly frail physically he retained his mental faculties to the very end. A week before he died I took him out for a pub lunch and on the way back in the car he said to me cheerfully “Ah well, things can only get better!” which summed up the sturdy, no-nonsense and optimistic view of life which he had always held. All my life I never heard him – or my mother come to that – grumble or admit to an emotional weakness, such as feeling depressed. Any doubts or troubles they may have felt they kept to themselves and did not reveal them to their family nor to the outside world. That was their philosophy and, generally speaking, the philosophy of their generation. This philosophy is evident in A Son of the Rectory even when Aubrey is writing about trench life in World War One. He cannot bring himself to admit to the horrors of his life in the trenches. “Anyone reading these notes must think that we had a really uncomfortable and miserable time in France” he writes. “Far from it. It was a cheerful and happy time. There were good times and bad times, the latter being very much in the minority.” These words are not the product of a memory mellowing with the passage of time. They are typical of Aubrey’s robust attitude to life as a young man, an attitude which he retained for the whole of his life to the very end. His refusal to express emotion about his own life and times did not prevent him from being a kind, generous and thoughtful husband, father, family man and friend, who inspired great love and affection. A Son of The Rectory is an extraordinary feat of memory of the major events and, especially, of the minutiae of the first 25 years of Aubrey's life and an important source of reference for social historians. Sonia and Marilyn, with the help of others in Appleby Magna, have performed a notable public service in enhancing the original work and in making it available, once again, to the general public.

  • HS2 and Appleby Magna Response by Appleby Magna Parish Council to the Draft Environmental Statement – December 2018
    Appleby Magna Parish Council - Response to HS2 HS2 and Appleby Magna Response by Appleby Magna Parish Council to the Draft Environmental Statement – December 2018 1. Appleby Magna and Parva – characteristics and facilities HS2’s Draft Environmental Statement provides accounts of Appleby’s characteristics and facilities in a number of sections. The Parish Council has identified omissions, inaccuracies and limitations. Rather than detail these section by section we would like to start with our own description of Appleby Parish. Appleby Parish Map As can be seen from the map left the parish of Appleby includes both the village of Appleby Magna and the hamlet of Appleby Parva. The parish runs to the outskirts of Measham (at Birds Hill) and Snarestone village. It is primarily a rural parish, including a number of farms. The M42 runs through the West of the parish. Housing in Appleby Parva is primarily on, or close to, the A444 towards Nuneaton. However, Appleby Magna is unusual in being close to, but not located on, any major road. This is important for its sense of place. The Appleby Magna and Appleby Parva Village Design Statement (which was the result of extensive public consultation and participation and became adopted as supplementary planning guidance) identified four elements of village character which development should seek to conserve: community spirit, rural nature, heritage, and quality and diversity of design (guideline 1). The minor village roads connecting the village to the major road network also attract significant numbers of cyclists and horse riders. Appleby Magna has been subject to significant housing growth in the last couple of years.

  • Hinckley and Bosworth
    HINCKLEY & BOSWORTH DISTRICT PROFILE JANUARY 2010 JSNA District Level Report JSNA findings for Hinckley and Bosworth 1. Demography In 2007 there were an estimated 104,400 people resident in Hinckley and Bosworth. 95% of the population is white British and 2% is White Other. Hinckley and Bosworth is affected by socio-economic deprivation with 7.1% of the population living in neighbourhoods that have been classified as deprived nationally (4th quintile). However, there are no residents within the most deprived quintile within this district. Whilst this is similar to the value for Leicestershire it is well below the national average of 20% of people. Priority Neighbourhoods Hinckley and Bosworth has five priority neighbourhoods, Earl Shilton, Barwell, Hinckley, Burbage and Bagworth. Maps of the priority neighbourhoods are available on the Leicestershire Statistics and Research Online website: http://www.lsr-online.org/reports/leicestershire_laa_priority_neighbourhoods 2. Housing and accommodation needs Hinckley and Bosworth is a mostly rural area. The main settlements, Hinckley, Barwell, and Earl Shilton, are fairly different . Using Output Area Classifications to gain a general view suggests that Hinckley contains more higher income households and Earl Shilton is relatively more working class, but these are generalisations and cover a substantial variety. Most of the children of school age in the main settlements are White British. The largest ethnic minority groups are ‘Other White’ and ‘Asian/British Indian’. Properties in the main settlements are mainly owner occupied 3 bed houses, though there are significant numbers of both 2 bed flats and houses. There is very little private rented property (though this is likely to have increased since 2001) throughout the borough.

  • News from Twycross Parish Council- (Late) Summer 2019
    NEWS FROM TWYCROSS PARISH COUNCIL- (LATE) SUMMER 2019 FROM ALAN DAVIES, CHAIRMAN, TWYCROSS PARISH COUNCIL I have been a parish councillor for the last 4 years, as a representative for Norton Juxta Twycross. My aims are to work to maintain the character of our villages, and help to keep our villages safe, clean and tidy. Here is a summary of some issues we have dealt with in recent months: a) Parish council elections- May 2019. Nobody put themselves forward for the May 2019 election. The election was therefore held again in June 2019 and 3 previous councillors (myself, Allan Taylor, and Melanie Large) decided to stand so that our parish council would continue. Since June, Keith Hughes and Matthew Humphreys have joined us. We still have 2 vacancies in Twycross. b) Planning application-M42 junction 11- proposed distribution campus Sadly, the proposal to build a massive distribution and storage campus on land just north of junction 11 of the M42 has been approved. This is likely to cause a huge increase in HGV’s on the A444 and traffic chaos on the M42 at junction 11. We opposed the application, as did our MP David Tredinnick and County Councillor Ivan Ould. We thank them for their support. Disappointingly Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council and Leicestershire County Council did not object. In my opinion this development will be an environmental disaster. c) Proposed construction of new houses in Orton Lane, Twycross Cartwright Homes are planning to build 20 new houses in Twycross, on a site already allocated for new housing. We have asked Cartwright Homes to keep Twycross residents fully informed as the development proceeds.
