Fin411y I should like to acknowledge Èhe assistance of Roger Hainsworth and Leitb MacGillivray, r¡ho read some of the drafts, and of Bev Arnold in Ebe Adelaide University bistory office, for introducing me to the mysteries of tbe word procêssor. l- l_ ABSTRACT Ttlis thesis is e comparatíve study of the inbabítan¡s of two Midland ,parishes over a century and a half of, economic and social upbeaval. It will examine and test in e local context a series of hypotheses about early modern Englisb society, taking inËo account the strengths and deficiencies of the mat,erial evidence. An introducËory bistoriographical survey looks at various approaches to Èbe study of the rlocal cormnunity'!, wít.h particular regard Eo tbe approaches of the t Leicester Scbool' and tbarnbridge Grõup, hisÈoríans. Ttre firsE chapter of rny analysis begins witb a broad survey of thirty contiguous parisbes which form ân agricultural sub-region of whicb Appleby and AusÈrey are an integral part,. An investigation óf the growÈh of rnarketing contrnunicat,ions and trade in this ãgricultural region provides a Èopographícal' conÈext. Chapter two focuses upoî changes in the landscape and farming economies of the two paríshes, with parlicular empbasís upon che cbangeã brought about by enclosure. The social r I and demographic upon a family reconstituÈion o-f eacb parish r Èhe registers supplemented by information from nd beartb tax listings. A detailed analysis cbapter three reveals tbaÈ botb parishes es of populatíon expansion in tbe late Tudor roq ly sËuart period, while the slowing down of growth in Ëhe post civil t{ar period es a result of an ínÈernal population adjusÈment lras parEly offseË by irmuigration. Studies of economic and social folariãtion ín cbapter four, and of family and kin_ship linkages in cbapteis five and six, sbed sorne ligbt on Ëhe Process of change in eacb of tte parisbes and belp Ëo account, for their specifíc resPonses to outside developments. partícular aÈtention ís given to two important, interrelated faciors: Èbe dranatic increase in Ëhe labouring population and Ëbe expansion of cotÈage craft industries. A final assessment of 'altitudinalt cbanles in each parisb in chapter seven takes into account_ Èbe religíous and political ,ligoltr"ot" of tbe inbabitants inmediately before and alter tbe civil war. Ernphasis is placed ÈhroughouÈ upon Ëbe complex ínteraction of events and causes and uPon tbe cenËral importance of the inhabitants tbemselves in fonnulating responses to economic and social cbange. tilbile tbey were influenced by other concerns, their prioritíe" roj inÈerests remained primarily agricultural. 111.

  • Country Properties £330,000 Unit One Nethercote Farm
    Nethercote Farm, Unit 1 Snarestone Road, Newton Burgoland, Coalville LE67 2SN Country Properties £330,000 Unit One Nethercote Farm GENERAL Sensational opportunity to create a truly unique 2400 sq ft property in idyllic country setting with stable block and 3.5 acre paddock. You decide whether you want a contemporary or traditional interior in this pretty traditional barn. The site is set in paddock land with the National Forest forming a spectacular backdrop. The plot forms part of the Nethercote Farm development where planning permission has recently been granted for three outstanding country dwellings, all of which will have a paddock of approximately 3.5 acres. Whilst planning permission has been secured for the conversion of Nethercote Farm into 3 dwellings, the sellers believe it would be possible to convert into a large, single executive dwelling, for those aspiring to live the life of luxury in a large 4650 sq. Ft contemporary barn conversion with attached 2,400 sq. Ft annexe set in 10.5 acres of paddock land. Alternatively units 2 & 3 can potentially be converted to 1 unit. David Granger Architectural Design Ltd can advise on this. LOCATION Nethercote Farm is located immediately to the North of Newton Burgoland within walking distance of the village . Newton Burgoland is a highly desirable village set in some of the prettiest Leicestershire countryside located midway between the market towns of Ashby de la Zouch and Market Bosworth. Amenities in the village include a primary school, which was designated as "outstanding" in its last Ofsted report and the renowned Belper Arms. There are some lovely walks in the area and the exclusive health resort of Champney Springs is close by.

  • Local Plan Review Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council
    Local Plan Review Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council Hinckley Hub Rugby Road Hinckley Leicestershire LE10 0FR SENT BY E-MAIL ONLY TO [email protected] 3rd March 2019 Dear Sir / Madam HINCKLEY & BOSWORTH LOCAL PLAN REVIEW (LPR) – NEW DIRECTIONS FOR GROWTH CONSULTATION Introduction Thank you for consulting with the Home Builders Federation (HBF) on the above mentioned consultation. The HBF is the principal representative body of the house-building industry in England and Wales. Our representations reflect the views of our membership, which includes multi-national PLC’s, regional developers and small local builders. In any one year, our members account for over 80% of all new “for sale” market housing built in England and Wales as well as a large proportion of newly built affordable housing. We would like to submit the following answers in response to the Council’s consultation document. Q2. Should the authority explore other options for growth beyond the existing urban area? The currently adopted spatial strategy for the Borough focuses the majority of new development in and around the urban area of Hinckley, Burbage, Barwell and Earl Shilton. The adopted Borough settlement hierarchy identifies the urban area at the top of the hierarchy with a three-tier approach to rural settlements defined as key rural centres, rural villages, and rural hamlets. The strategy directs development to urban locations where services, jobs, public transport and other facilities are most readily accessible. Outside of the urban area, the strategy limits development to that necessary to keep rural settlements and communities viable and vibrant. The general principle is that less development is directed to settlements the further down they are in the hierarchy.

  • HS2 Draft Environmental Statement
    HS2 and Measham Response by Measham Parish Council to the Draft Environmental Statement – December 2018 1. Introduction When the original route for Phase 2b of HS2 was announced in 2013, the route ran through the western side of the village. Some significant issues were identified with this route, and in November 2016 HS2 consulted on an alternative route on the east of Measham. There were many responses to this consultation and the prevailing view was that the proposed route caused more adverse impacts than the one proposed in 2013. As a result of this consultation, a third version of the route through Measham was announced in July 2017, varying the course of the railway to avoid the worst adverse effects on the Westminster Trading Estate. However, any route which makes close contact with the village will result in adverse impacts and our aim in our response to this consultation is to ensure that HS2 Ltd address our concerns with appropriate mitigation. We have identified our top priorities are: • Mitigation for the loss of Section 106 monies as a result of the blight on the Measham Wharf Development • Ensuring that the Mease Viaduct is appropriate to its surrounding environment • To protect the character of the village in the face of demolitions and the proximity of the railway to many village properties • Losses to housing in the village, and a rising number of empty properties while we are awaiting Compulsory Purchase Orders to be actioned We are aware that there is a degree of uncertainty around the route through Measham, but at the moment whilst there is no firm decision from the Department for Transport, we can only comment on HS2’s route as it stands.
