The Granary Fisherwick Road | Lichfield | Staffordshire
The Granary Fisherwick Road | Lichfield | Staffordshire THE GRANARY Stunning barn conversion of nearly 4,000ft2, steeped with history and amazing features, hidden in a private development of six country homes down a three quarter mile private driveway. The property has four bedrooms and five reception rooms including a very impressive drawing room with full height ceilings and gallery landing. Step Inside The Granary Converted in 1990 and said to be the tallest remaining barn in Staffordshire, the height of this Grade ll listed property offers a sense of grandeur as one enters the full height drawing room with flagstone floors and welcoming inglenook fireplace. A gated driveway leads to the integral double garage with the property enjoying two small garden areas, the former is perfect for entertaining with pergola and lantern lighted barbeque area. The latter is an easily maintained lawn area. The original barn was built in 1360 and unfortunately burnt down but it was rebuilt in 1540 and we still retain some of the original wall. There are Tudor roses imprinted into the beams and these little details add to the sense of times gone by, it really does feel like an old barn with an immense history. A spiral staircase leads from the family room up to a galleried upper floor office / snug. The galleried landing offers an additional area to relax and provides access to the show stopping dining room with vaulted beam ceiling overlooking the drawing room. A great gym/dance studio on the ground floor with window was originally part of the garage block and could be converted to a number of uses. -

In Britain, as in their other provinces, the Romans constructed a comprehensive network of paved trunk roads (i.e. surfaced highways) during their nearly four centuries of occupation (43 - 410 AD). This article focuses on the ca. 2,000 mi (3,200 km) of Roman roads in Britain shown on the Ordnance Survey's Map of Roman Britain.[1] This contains the most accurate and up-to-date layout of certain and probable routes that is readily available to the general public. The pre-Roman Britons used mostly unpaved trackways for their communications, including very ancient ones running along elevated ridges of hills, such as the South Downs Way, now a public long-distance footpath. -

Map 8 Britannia Superior Compiled by A.S
Map 8 Britannia Superior Compiled by A.S. Esmonde-Cleary, 1996 with the assistance of R. Warner (Ireland) Introduction Britain has a long tradition of antiquarian and archaeological investigation and recording of its Roman past, reaching back to figures such as Leland in the sixteenth century. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the classically-educated aristocracy and gentry of a major imperial and military power naturally felt an affinity with the evidence for Rome’s presence in Britain. In the twentieth century, the development of archaeology as a discipline in its own right reinforced this interest in the Roman period, resulting in intense survey and excavation on Roman sites and commensurate work on artifacts and other remains. The cartographer is therefore spoiled for choice, and must determine the objectives of a map with care so as to know what to include and what to omit, and on what grounds. British archaeology already has a long tradition of systematization, sometimes based on regions as in the work of the Royal Commissions on (Ancient and) Historic Monuments for England (Scotland and Wales), but also on types of site or monument. Consequently, there are available compendia by Rivet (1979) on the ancient evidence for geography and toponymy; Wacher (1995) on the major towns; Burnham (1990) on the “small towns”; Margary (1973) on the roads that linked them; and Scott (1993) on villas. These works give a series of internally consistent catalogs of the major types of site. Maps of Roman Britain conventionally show the island with its modern coastline, but it is clear that there have been extensive changes since antiquity, and that the conventional approach risks understating the differences between the ancient and the modern.
