Middle Littleton Walk
Salford Salford Priors Bridge Weir Marlcliff A46 The three Littleton’s – North, Middle and South – are sheltered on the west by slightly higher ground and away to the Walk 11 east by the Cotswold’s. The Littleton’s lie in one of the most important market garden districts in ‘The Vale’ and this walk Worcester Way goes through some of the market gardens, with their crops of rhubarb and thyme, onions and asparagus (known locally Meadows n Abbot’s vo as ‘gras’). In the 1930’s there were some 3,000 small units of between three and five acres round Evesham and the same Middle Littleton A Marlcliff Hill Salford ’s re around Pershore. The break-up of the large estates in the 19th century was greatly encouraged by the acceptance of the 10 ea p ‘Evesham Custom’, whereby tenants owned the improvements they made to holdings and could realize the added value 11 s 9 e Greystones Salford k 8 as ‘ingoing’ paid to the new tenant. Life in ‘The Vale’ was almost in another world- hard work for little return, save the a Hall h freedom of working the land for oneself and being one’s own boss in the open air. S 7 The Manor 1.

A Circular Walk from Middle Littleton Tithe Barn – 6 Miles
A circular walk from Middle Littleton Tithe Barn – 6 Miles This is a level walk apart from one descent and a later short but steep ascent of Cleeve Hill. In between there is a leisurely stroll along the River Avon. The route in the main is along field tracks and may be muddy after rain. The route from Middle Littleton to Cleeve Prior is through typical ‘Vale of Evesham’ countryside. 1. From the car park at the Tithe barn walk up Croft Road and turn right, go through the gate at the end of the road, bear right across the field to two adjacent gates in the right- hand hedge. (You will have a good view of the back of the tithe barn). 2. Go through the left hand (furthest) gate, and turn left keeping the hedge on the left. Carry on until you reach the road on the edge of North Littleton. 3. Cross the road and follow the track which is signposted to Cleeve Prior without turning off for 1.3 miles until you reach Cleeve Prior. Along this track, after three quarters of a mile you will cross a stile and a wooden bridge and then pass by the Severn Trent water works, eventually entering Quarry Lane into the village of Cleeve Prior. 4. Go straight across the road to ‘The Green’ and bear right into the churchyard. 5. Bear left, following a faint path to the left past the church to a gap in a row of poplars, go through the gap into the present graveyard, cross to a gate and follow the path past a large old chestnut tree. -

Lime Kilns in Worcestershire
Lime Kilns in Worcestershire Nils Wilkes Acknowledgements I first began this project in September 2012 having noticed a number of limekilns annotated on the Ordnance Survey County Series First Edition maps whilst carrying out another project for the Historic Environment Record department (HER). That there had been limekilns right across Worcestershire was not something I was aware of, particularly as the county is not regarded to be a limestone region. When I came to look for books or documents relating specifically to limeburning in Worcestershire, there were none, and this intrigued me. So, in short, this document is the result of my endeavours to gather together both documentary and physical evidence of a long forgotten industry in Worcestershire. In the course of this research I have received the help of many kind people. Firstly I wish to thank staff at the Historic Environmental Record department of the Archive and Archaeological Service for their patience and assistance in helping me develop the Limekiln Database, in particular Emma Hancox, Maggi Noke and Olly Russell. I am extremely grateful to Francesca Llewellyn for her information on Stourport and Astley; Simon Wilkinson for notes on Upton-upon-Severn; Gordon Sawyer for his enthusiasm in locating sites in Strensham; David Viner (Canal and Rivers Trust) in accessing records at Ellesmere Port; Bill Lambert (Worcester and Birmingham Canal Trust) for involving me with the Tardebigge Limekilns Project; Pat Hughes for her knowledge of the lime trade in Worcester and Valerie Goodbury -

WR11 7EJ Email: [email protected] Churchwardens Rod Carless Lis Hughes The Benefice of the East Vale and Avon Villages Dear Friends, This is the season of harvest when the farmers and growers after much hard work, have gathered in the majority of their produce. The farmers planted their seeds months ago but many of the fruit growers would have had their trees planted possibly decades ago. Irrespective of when the seeds or trees were planted the harvest is now very much gathered in. Over previous years much has been done in the six churches of our Benefice to plant the ‘seeds’ of the gospel and we must begin to look for the ‘harvest’ from all those various efforts. Last month I mentioned the new Messy Church starting and also the Bishop’s Certificate course. Let us look forward to these two new ventures to bring in a ‘harvest’ into our churches along with the many other exciting events that are happening in the coming months. Revd.Fr. Philip Morton CLEEVE PRIOR WAR MEMORIAL VILLAGE HALL email:[email protected] Preparations are in hand for the three Christmas-related events organised by the Hall Committee. -
