  • Rural Settlement List 2014
    National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

  • Shropshire Boccia Tournament 2016 Match Report
    Supported by Shropshire Boccia Tournament 2016 Match Report by Susie Hancock Shropshire RCC Wise & Well Team This was the fourth Shropshire Boccia Tournament and the biggest yet. Across all Heats, five Colleges, over 80 students, 18 Boccia clubs and over 90 competitors were involved in the 2016 competition, not to mention all the team managers, supporters, college staff and guests! A couple of prominent clubs from previous years, including the Llanymynech Good Companions and the Longleat Severnside Housing Scheme in Minsterley, were unable to attend this year but new entrants, such as the North Shrewsbury Friendly Neighbours teams, performed extremely well. Thank you to everyone who supported the Tournament this year. Keep practising for next year’s competition! Oswestry Heat The Shropshire Boccia Tournament 2016 got underway on 27th September with the Oswestry Area Heat. Seven teams competed for medals and the chance to go through to the County Final. The Oswestry competition was held at Oswestry Leisure Centre, with Sports students form North Shropshire College running the competition with enthusiasm. A wide range of clubs were represented. The Firey Jacks from the Bradbury Day Centre in Whitchurch met the Red Robins and the Bluebirds, from Baschurch Senior Citizens’ Club, the Ruyton Rollers and two teams (the Oswestry Sloggers and the Betty & Jamie VIPs, with their guide dogs) from the Oswestry Sight Loss Opportunity Group. The match was played in two groups, with a team of students making up the eighth team. The intensive training put in by the Ruyton XI Towns team paid off and they won their group with a wide margin.

  • An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
    An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 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 Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.

It offers a diverse range of scenery: from the lakes and rolling pasturelands around Ellesmere in the north, to the gaunt moorlands of the Clee Hills, with their stark industrial ruins, in the south; the densely wooded scarps of Wenlock Edge; or the straight, sandy lanes of the north-eastern heathlands, with their large arable fields and ‘big skys’.

Its builders at this time were a new branch of the Corbet family whose principal seat was Moreton Corbet Castle near Shawbury. To celebrate the founding of this line - or perhaps to gloss over its newness - the mansion was conceived on a grand scale. However, the building we see txxlay is only a fraction of what once stood there and what remains of it - and indeed what doesn't - has experienced a particularly complex history. Its first 150 years are punctuated by restless change and adaptation. The hall was initially built in timber-frame. Then in the early 17m century, it was rebuilt in brick and stone with a number of additions. After a quieter interlude, it experienced a considerable trauma in the first decade or so of the IS· century when approximately a third of the structure, in the form of a wing, was pulled down.

  • Broseley in Shropshire 1600-1820
    INDUSTRIALISATION AND AN EARLY MODERN TOWN: BROSELEY IN SHROPSHIRE 1600-1820 by STEPHEN CHARLES HUDSON A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Culture College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham June 2017 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 This work is the first attempt to analyse, assess and evaluate the broad process of industrialisation in Broseley, Shropshire between 1600 and c.1820. The thesis is a study of historical processes of growth, development and, ultimately the beginning of decline of a small industrial urban settlement above the Severn Gorge on the southern margins of the east Shropshire coalfield. These historical processes, socio-economic in character, are shown to interact and produce an early industrial town, possessing certain characteristics, features and traditions, unusual if not unique in a settlement of this nature. A variety of source material – primary documentary, archaeological/field and secondary – is used to examine the origins and growth of three groups of industries - mining, iron and ceramics - and the social fabric and stratification that were both the cause and consequence of their development.
