Welland View sits on a private and tranquil plot of nearly an acre enclosed by mature trees. It not only has three to four bedrooms in the main part of the house, but two further bedrooms in the adjoining annex, with even more potential for conversion of the garaging and workshops (subject to planning). Approached from a quiet road linking the town with the A47, Welland Views’ entrance is off a shared drive with a pretty and small, independent garden centre, providing a number of benefits. “If I had a choice of who to have as a neighbour,” divulges the owner, “ I would choose a garden centre.

  • BRONZE AGE SETTLEMENT at RIDLINGTON, RUTLAND Matthew Beamish
    01 Ridlington - Beamish 30/9/05 3:19 pm Page 1 BRONZE AGE SETTLEMENT AT RIDLINGTON, RUTLAND Matthew Beamish with contributions from Lynden Cooper, Alan Hogg, Patrick Marsden, and Angela Monckton A post-ring roundhouse and adjacent structure were recorded by University of Leicester Archaeological Services, during archaeological recording preceding laying of the Wing to Whatborough Hill trunk main in 1996 by Anglian Water plc. The form of the roundhouse together with the radiocarbon dating of charred grains and finds of pottery and flint indicate that the remains stemmed from occupation toward the end of the second millennium B.C. The distribution of charred cereal remains within the postholes indicates that grain including barley was processed and stored on site. A pit containing a small quantity of Beaker style pottery was also recorded to the east, whilst a palaeolith was recovered from the infill of a cryogenic fissure. The remains were discovered on the northern edge of a flat plateau of Northamptonshire Sand Ironstone at between 176 and 177m ODSK832023). The plateau forms a widening of a west–east ridge, a natural route way, above northern slopes down into the Chater Valley, and abrupt escarpments above the parishes of Ayston and Belton to the south (illus. 2). Near to the site, springs issue from just below the 160m and 130m contours to the north and south east respectively and ponds exist to the east corresponding with a boulder clay cap. The area was targeted for investigation as it lay on the northern fringe of a substantial Mesolithic/Early Neolithic flint scatter (LE5661, 5662, 5663) (illus.

  • Barrowden School Was Built in 1862 by the Marquess of Exeter
    Barrowden School was built in 1862 by the Marquess of Exeter. Within a year up to 120 pupils were attending. The school was extended in 1872 with the addition of an infants room. The first report by the Head in 1872 was hardly complimentary: ‘The intelligence of the Upper classes requires much cultivation.’ In 1880 the Inspector is scathing and considers that the spelling throughout the school might be better. In 1895 Mr Brittiff Tidd and his wife Agnes were appointed as Headmaster and Mistress. Their eight years of service Barrowden School, now a private house ’greatly improved the village school, and the discipline (and) efficiency.’ Following their departure in 1903, standards declined almost overnight. However by 1905 the Inspector was able to report ‘a decided improvement in the tone, discipline and efficiency of the school.’ In 1973 the children of junior school age were moved to North Luffenham Primary School. For several years, the building continued to be run as an Infant School for three and four year olds. Grantham Journal, 9 May 1903 Bisbrooke (later Bisbrooke and Glaston) School opened in 1872 in the grounds of Bisbrooke Hall. The school could accommodate 64 seniors and 24 infants. A constant concern was over the number of pupils attending as funding was dependent on this. Frequently the attendance officer would be called in to see the parents of absent pupils. Often the reason was illness: ‘A few of the children have been away with blister pox’ (May 1892). ‘Coughing among the children is, at times, most distressing’ (Feb 1901). The School in around 1911 ‘2 or 3 cases of ringworm’ (June 1903).

The Salamanca Corpus: Rutland Words (1891) [v] INTRODUCTION. The following collection of words and phrases has been made during a twelve years’incumbency in the county of Rutland (Wrangdike Hundred). Several items have been contributed by the Rev. P. G. Dennis, rector of N. Luffenham, and others by the late rector of Stretton, the Rev. Edward Bradley, more widely known as “Cuthbert Bede.” I have neither time nor confidence to attempt a scientific introduction. I will add a very few random hints as to local peculiarities. ‘Come’, ‘Butter’, &c., are pronounced ‘Coom’, ‘Booter’. ‘Chance’, ‘Mince’, are ‘Chanch’, ‘Minch’. ‘Quench’, ‘Quince’, are ‘Squench,’ ‘Squinch’ or ‘Quincë’. ‘Cornice’ is ‘Cornish’. The final e is pronounced as a sort of possessive termination in ‘Princë-feathers’, ‘ Rosë-tree’, and sometimes ‘ Quincë-tree’. ‘Bladder’, ‘Ladder’, ‘Ivy’, are ‘Blether’ or ‘Blather,’’Lether’, ‘Ivory’. ‘While’ is used as equivalent with ‘till’. ‘At-a night’, ‘Of-a Thursday’, ‘Of-a night’.

  • Late Victorian and Clerical Incumbents in Rutland Pp.219-228
    230487 08c-219-228 18/10/09 11:47 Page 219 LATE VICTORIAN AND EDWARDIAN CLERICAL INCUMBENTS IN RUTLAND Gerald T. Rimmington After 1873 English clerical incumbents in rural areas like Rutland were faced with a deepening agricultural depression that was only slightly alleviated after 1896. Many of the communities were decimated, because the heavy clay soils of the region were responsible for the tendency to turn over to less labour intensive pastoral activities. This was especially disastrous not only for farmers but also for the clergy. Clerical incomes were largely derived from glebe rents and these declined in the face of poor harvests and competition from imports of wheat from North America. C. F. K. Brown notes that ‘in 1880 the number of benefices of an annual value of over £100 and less than £200 was 2,597, but in 1892 the number was 4,173’. 1 The ending of pluralities, beginning with the Pluralities Act 1838 and strengthened by a further Act in 1850, was also a factor in reducing clerical incomes. As Peter Virgin states, ‘in 1830, pluralism had been virile, with nearly three livings for every two clergy… by 1880 it was virtually dead’. 2 Not surprisingly the number of candidates for ordination declined. By 1901 ordinations had fallen below 600 in England and Wales for the first time. In the early nineteenth century the social status of incumbents was rising. The wealthier ones were more akin to the aristocracy than the cottage dweller. Many of them were magistrates. They employed an array of servants. By the later decades of the century the social status of parsons was definitely in decline.

  • Victorian Miracle Trail in Uppingham Where the Famous School Is an Outstanding Example of Victorian Educational Achievement
    The Victorians were miracle workers. They fused Science and Industry together to produce architectural and engineering miracles which we still see in today’s landscape – bridges, viaducts, massive railway stations, an all pervasive rail network, sewage systems, town halls full of integrity as well as dark satanic mills. Despite Rutland being the smallest county in England, it did not escape from the Victorian advancements in transport; this little shire seems able to produce at least one of everything! In this Instance it is the Seaton – Harringworth Viaduct, in the Welland Valley, which is our Victorian miracle. Start your Victorian Miracle Trail in Uppingham where the famous school is an outstanding example of Victorian educational achievement. Head east to Glaston to see the fine flaggy walls with their profuse vegetation everywhere in the village. Leave its raw edges along the A47 and park neat St Andrew’s. Take the tiny path through the churchyard to see the unusual pyramidal spire of the 13th century and the even earlier tower. The Old Rectory lies near the church. Re-built in brick, 1861-62, it is supposed to incorporate a 17th century ironstone house within its construction. Leave by the Lych-gate on foot, turning left onto Orchard Close, then left again on Spring Lane to see the Ancient Pond. Wander down Manor Lane where there are sev- eral remarkable old houses with mullioned windows, one dated 1696. The village almost stands on top of the 1846 yard long tunnel of the former L.M.S Kettering to Manton Line, a major engineering feat using 16 million ordinary bricks and 4 ½ million Staffordshire Blue bricks, and built between 1875-80.
