Tel: 0151 478 4260 Fax: 0151 478 4040 © Trustees of the National Museums and Galleries on Merseyside Non-Technical Summary This report describes the result of an archaeological desk study of the proposed regeneration of Moneystone Quarry near Whiston Staffordshire. The study involved a review of the available documentary, cartographic and photographic sources and the site was visited for a ‘walkover’ survey. The desk-study found little evidence for in situ archaeological deposits within the proposed development area. For the earlier periods (Prehistoric and Roman) this may be at least in part the result of the current poor understanding of settlement in the region. During the medieval and post- medieval periods most of the site appears to have been in use as agricultural land, though it lies within a wider landscape of industrial activity, including iron smelting, copper smelting, coal mining and other processes. However, the vast majority of the site has been extensively affected by 20 th century quarrying, although there are documented sites within the site boundary, all have been destroyed and the site is considered to be of no archaeological potential.

Background This report relates to an archaeological desk-based assessment of two areas of land at Moneystone Quarry, Staffordshire produced for HOW Planning on behalf of the Applicant. The quarry is the subject of proposals for landscaping and restoration alongside re-development for leisure use. Details of the methodology and sources consulted are given in the project design. 1.1. Site Location and Description This study covers the site of Moneystone Quarry, Oakamoor, Staffordshire (NGR SK 0464 4641 (centred) plus an additional fringe of 1 km beyond the site boundaries. The site is an irregularly shaped area approximately 51.8 ha in extent and lies to either side of Eaves Lane, a road connecting the villages of Whiston and Oakamoor villages which lie to the north and south. Most of the site covered by the application is occupied by former a former sandstone quarry worked during the late 20th century, though there are small areas of undisturbed agricultural land on the eastern and southern fringes of the site. The surrounding landscape is largely agricultural in character and t is fringed to the south-west by the Churnet Valley The site lies within the Staffordshire Moorlands District Council, an area which includes 967 Listed buildings and structures, 14 Conservation Areas and a number of Scheduled Ancient Monuments (SAMs) within the District outside the Peak District National Park which contains a further 371 Listed Buildings. 1.2 Legislation and Planning Background Archaeological sites may be protected by the following legislation and planning policies. The Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act (1979) as Amended by the National Heritage Act (1983) provides statutory protection for sites of national importance as scheduled by Secretary of State upon advice from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) as advised by English Heritage. This Act, building on legislation dating back to 1882, provides for nationally important archaeological sites to be statutorily protected as Scheduled Ancient Monuments. There are currently around 19,000 entries in the Schedule, covering 35,000 sites ranging from prehistoric standing stones and burial mounds to Roman forts and medieval villages, and include some more recent structures such as collieries and wartime pill-boxes. The scheduling of a monument means that permission - 'scheduled monument consent' - is required for works to that monument. Scheduled Ancient Monument Consent is required for any work that would affect the fabric of a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The National Heritage Act (1983) established the Historic Buildings and Monuments Commission for England (English Heritage). English Heritage is an Executive Nondepartmental Public Body sponsored by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). It acts as the government's advisor on the historic environment, working with the office of the Deputy Prime Minister and the Departments for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and for Trade and Industry. The work of English Heritage is overseen by a board of up to 16 Commissioners selected by the Government for the breadth of their national and regional expertise. Expert advisory 1 Moneystone Quarry, Staffordshire. Desk-Based Assessment. committees and panels in turn, advise the Commission. English Heritage works in partnership with the central government departments, local authorities, voluntary bodies and the private sector to: • Conserve and enhance the historic environment • Broaden public access to the heritage • Increase people's understanding of the past The National Heritage Act (2002) extended English Heritage’s responsibility for marine archaeology including ancient monuments in, on or under the seabed within a 12-mile boundary around England. However, the vast majority of archaeological sites have no formal statutory protection and are dealt with through Planning Process. Listed Buildings . The Town and Country Planning Act (1971) as amended by the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas Act (1990) empowers the Secretary of State for the Environment to maintain a list of built structures of historic or architectural significance. Conservation Areas The ‘Planning (Listed Building and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 requires local authorities to designate areas of ‘special architectural or historic interest’ as Conservation Areas with the aim of preserving and enhancing their character and appearance. English Heritage may need to be consulted with regard to proposed works within a Conservation Area and section 72(1) requires Local Authorities to pay particular attention to Conservation Areas in the planning process. Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. English Heritage has responsibility for maintaining the Register of Parks and Gardens of Historic Interest in England under section 8C of the Historic Buildings and Ancient Monuments Act 1953 (Inserted by section 33 of, and paragraph 10 of section 4, to the National Heritage Act 1983). This ensures that they are managed in a manner that considers their historic character and value. Listed building and conservation area legislation requires that statutory consultation takes place with a number of national amenity organisations, such as the Victorian Society, the Georgian Group, the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB), the Ancient Monuments Society, the Council for British Archaeology (CBA) and English Heritage. World Heritage Sites. The UNESCO World Heritage List aims to: • Encourage countries to sign the World Heritage Convention and to ensure the protection of their natural and cultural heritage; • Encourage States Parties to the Convention to nominate sites within their national territory for inclusion on the World Heritage List; • Encourage States Parties to establish management plans and set up reporting systems on the state of conservation of their World Heritage sites; • Help States Parties safeguard World Heritage properties by providing technical assistance and professional training; • Provide emergency assistance for World Heritage sites in immediate danger; 2 Moneystone Quarry, Staffordshire. Desk-Based Assessment. • Support States Parties' public awareness-building activities for World Heritage conservation; • Encourage participation of the local population in the preservation of their cultural and natural heritage; • Encourage international cooperation in the conservation of our world's cultural and natural heritage. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) replaced Planning Policy Statement (PPS) 5 in March 2012. It covers all aspects of heritage, applying the term ‘Heritage Asset’ to the diverse components which comprise the Historic Environment. A Heritage asset is defined as ‘A building, monument, site, place, area or landscape identified as having a

  • Wills and Religious Change in the Archdeaconry of Stafford, 1532-1580
    WILLS AND RELIGIOUS CHANGE IN THE ARCHDEACONRY OF STAFFORD, 1532 - 1580 by JENNIFER DAVIES A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY Department of (Medieval) History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham February 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT The entire complement of wills from the deanery of Leek probated between 1532 and 1580, about 1,300, have been examined to assess response of the testators to religious change through the first fifty years of the Reformation, by detailing the impact on their religious sentiments and bequests. While change in this backward agricultural community was late and driven from above, unexpectedly, once initiated, it took hold rapidly. It is suggested that this was due to the actions of the Protestant Bishop Thomas Bentham, anxious to mitigate fears voiced by critics of his weak implementation of government edicts in his diocese. He advanced change through monitoring and resolute control of his clergy. A transition from traditional religious sentiments is observed in the will-writing output of individual clergy: as priests appointed during earlier, Catholic regimes died or resigned, and they were replaced by men supporting the Elizabethan Settlement.

  • The Origins and Evolution of the Surnames Williscroft, Woolliscroft and Variant's
    The Origins and Evolution of the surnames Williscroft, Woolliscroft and Variant's Today the surnames Williscroft, Woolliscroft and variants Willescroft, Williscraft, Wolliscroft, Wooliscroft are distinct surnames. However, my research has demonstrated that stability in the spelling of the surname in England has only occurred over the past hundred and ffty years. Prior to this the different spellings of the surname were interchangeable. The common factor was that the different spellings of the surname sound the same especially with the Staffordshire accent. Analysis from recent electoral registers, Birth, Death & Marriage records and census returns between 1841 and 1911 in the United Kingdom has demonstrated that the greatest concentration of the surname in the United Kingdom is in Staffordshire. However, the surname is now found worldwide. The surnames appear to share a common origin from the hamlet marked on present day maps by 'Wooliscroft' located just outside Stone in Staffordshire, England. It has a long history and can be traced back to the 12C and perhaps Doomsday and before. It was part of the Aston by Stone and Walton Manor. Today it is located in Hilderstone Parish. The spelling of the place name shows a similar development to that of the surname. This does not mean that all the bearers of this surname have the same genetic roots but that their ancestors most likely came from the same place. Earliest References to the surname A study of records contained within the “Collections for the History of Staffordshire” by the Stafforshire Record Society has revealed some interesting references to both the surname and place- name prior to the 1600's.

    The London School of Economics and Political Science Networks, Innovation and Knowledge: The North Staffordshire Potteries, 1750-1851 Joseph Peter Lane A thesis submitted in the Department of Economic History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, September 2017 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of the thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement if made. The thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 76,744 words. 2 Abstract During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the industrial district of the North Staffordshire Potteries dominated the British earthenware industry, producing local goods that sold in global markets. Over this time the region experienced consistent growth in output, an extreme spatial concentration of physical and human capital, and became home to some of the most famous Master Potters in the world. The Potteries was also characterised by a growing body of useful and practical knowledge about the materials, processes and skills required to produce world-leading earthenware. This thesis exploits this striking example of a highly concentrated and highly skilled craft-based industry during a period of sustained growth and development which offers a rich opportunity to contribute to several strands of economic and business history.

This reflects the strong and well founded reputation that both authorities have for partnership working. Over many years this has worked to secure significant regeneration funding for the sub region, particularly in Stoke-on-Trent, which has seen significant intervention under a wide variety of European, national and regional initiatives. Recently the North Staffordshire Regeneration Partnership has been formed in the desire of all partners in the public, private and voluntary sector to work together towards realising a single vision for the North Staffordshire sub region.
