( SUMMARY This report was commissioned by Edward Cooper Young Chartered Surveyors who wish to construct a care home on land to the South of Uffington Road, Stamford. In line with the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), where a site on which development is proposed includes or has the potential to include heritage assets with archaeological interest, the developer is required to submit an appropriate Heritage Statement and Archaeological Impact Assessment describing the significance and setting of any heritage assets affected. This report is that Heritage Statement and Archaeological Impact Assessment. The proposed development area (PDA) is roughly rectangular in shape, with existing light industrial buildings to the north and truncated by a footpath at its western end, the majority of which is currently scrub land. At its widest points the site measures c.271m (east-west) by c.123m (north-south) giving an approximate area of 2.64 hectares. The area upon which the care home will be constructed is c.100m by 40m, parallel with the small lane running north-west/ south-east to the Hudds Mill (DLI7751), to the west of the site. The Archaeological Impact Assessment demonstrated that there are no known designated assets within the proposed redevelopment area itself, nor the footprint of the care home. There is one non-designated heritage asset, a 17th century canal lock door which was found by contractors working at the Borough Sewage Works (DLI7751). The base of the canal was lined with blue clay and sherds of 17th century slipped ware were found. The canal was backfilled and levelled off in the late 19th century. This Asset is within the old sewage works and nothing is currently extant on the site, however, any excavation of the surrounding area and known canal route would need to take this previous discovery into account. Aerial photographs and cartographic analysis demonstrates that the PDA has been subject to multiple phases of industrial development in the modern period; mining, the construction (and subsequent demolition) of a large sewage works and construction of a light industrial complex. No archaeological features were clearly evident within the PDA during a site visit, although a noticeable slope towards the allotments east of the site may indicate the presence of former building platforms. Any buried archaeological remains identified beneath the proposed redevelopment area, would offer an opportunity to address research priorities highlighted in the recent East Midlands Updated Research Agenda and Strategy (Knight, Vyner and Allen 2012). Although this desk-based assessment suggests a low potential for buried archaeology within the PDA, the client should consult further with Lincolnshire County Council to ascertain whether additional mitigation is required in the form of a site investigation. ___________________________________________________________________________________ 3 Uffington(Road,(Stamford,(Lincolnshire( !

  • 1 West Deeping Heritage Group
    WEST DEEPING HERITAGE GROUP: Past Programme 2010 to 2015 5th November 2010 Who do we think they were? Past inhabitants of West Deeping Maggie Ashcroft The inaugural meeting of West Deeping Heritage Group. Five people from the history of the village – a Romano-British farmer, a villein to a Norman landlord, a Tudor yeoman, an eighteenth century landowner and a twentieth century quarry manager – with the help of the archaeological, archival and first-hand evidence - demonstrate the wealth of heritage resources we have. (Powerpoint presentation) February 2011 The Enclosure of West Deeping Brian Jones Nearly 200 years ago, the common fields of West Deeping and Tallington were divided up and allotted to the manor, church and other landowners. Enclosure changed the landscape, village life and farming methods. A group of us have been looking at the old documents and transcribing them. Brian Jones, WEA Speaker and local historian, talked about Enclosure and helped to interpret what it meant in West Deeping. March 2011 Where did you get those Genes? Jackie Searle, Bourne U3A If you want some inspiration and a few tips to help you trace your family history, Jackie Searle from Bourne U3A will be leading the session, with contributions from West Deeping family history researchers Melanie James and Iain Stowe. 7th October 2011 Who lived in my house? Past residents and landowners of West Deeping Maggie Ashcroft The families who lived at Molecey Mill in the 18th and 19th centuries; Caroline Desbruslais What do we know about the previous occupants of our houses or the owners of the plots on which they are built? There are lots of resources — date plaques, the 1813 Enclosure Award, old deeds, maps, letters, gravestones and census information — to tell us about the Figgs, Addys, Doves, Haynes, Greens and other families who lived in West Deeping.

  • Welland Water Transfer
    Welland Water Transfer A presentation to local councils and groups that may be affected by a proposal made by Ken Otter, the flood warden at Tallington. First presented December 16th 2020 Welland Water Transfer This presentation is in 3 parts. 1. The current position 2. The present situation 3. The latest proposal Thank you for attending. There will be an opportunity for questions after each part but if you need clarification please ask. Welland Water Transfer 1. The current position As we know, our local reservoir is Rutland Water. It is owned by Anglian Water and filled with water abstracted from local rivers under license (and at a cost) from the Environment Agency; the navigation authority for the Stamford to Folly River section of the Welland that we are concerned with. Welland Water Transfer To create the reservoir, the River Gwash was dammed up and it took about 3 years to fill. The River Gwash does help keep it topped up, but 95% of its water actually comes by pumping it in pipes from the River Welland and the River Nene. The map following is the area that affects us. Rutland Water to the Folly River The blue area covers the parish councils alongside the output from the reservoir. The southern edge is also the subject of the Langdyke Trust’s involvement with the John Clare Countryside project. The Folly River is in the bottom right corner. Welland Water Transfer What you see isn’t necessarily what you think! The River Welland here is a managed river. None of the flow is natural from Stamford.

  • Oakham Canal Trail Sep 2017
    The Oakham Canal The Oakham Canal was opened in 1802. Connecting with the Melton The Melton and Oakham Mowbray Navigation, and in turn to the Grand Union Canal, the canal allowed coal to be transported to Oakham from the Midlands, and agricultural products to be sent in return. The canal suffered greatly from a Waterways Society lack of water, especially in the summer months. When the canal company proprietors learned of the planned Syston to Peterborough railway, they were quick to enter into discussions with the Midland Railway Company, to Registered charity number 1078752 whom the canal was eventually sold in 1847. All of the original locks and bridges were removed, and land that was not used by the railway company was sold or reverted back to private ownership. Despite the canal being disused, and in the hands of multiple private owners for almost 170 years, much of it remains visible in the landscape. Sadly, only a small section of canal between Oakham and Ashwell retains a public footpath, although the canal can be seen in a number of other locations. The Melton and Oakham Waterways Society (MOWS) MOWS was formed in 1997. MOWS objectives are to maximise the social, economic, environmental and leisure opportunities from the restoration of the Melton Mowbray Navigation and the preservation of the Oakham Canal. MOWS supports many interests, including conservation, angling, walking, cycling, boating and local history. MOWS is actively working to open up more access to the Oakham Canal, and to conserve it for the benefit of the wider community. Come and join us!

  • One of Rutland's Secrets Is the Serene Vale of Catmose. but What Exactly
    One of Rutland’s secrets is the serene Vale of Catmose. But what exactly is it? We know about Catmose College, Catmos Street and the HQ of Rutland County Council at Catmose but where is this mysterious Vale? In fact it lies at the everyday heart of Rutland with Oakham marking its course. Ex- tending from the River Gwash below Manton it runs northwards beyond Oakham to the Rutland border at Teigh. Mostly it is the valley of the River Eye which starts near Cold Overton on the high ground and wends its way through Langham to Stapleford and Melton Mowbray. On either side of the valley is high land. The clay uplands to the west provide excellent views over the whole County whilst to the east the sharp Burley – Cottesmore ridge overlooks the entire Vale giving fine views of it which changes all the time. The villages of the Vale tend to be through routes rather than pondering, philosophical places – Barleythorpe, Langham, Whissendine, Teigh and Ashwell. To some extent the creation if Rutland Water has truncated the Vale in the south. Once it joined the Gwash Valley as it broadened between the limestone upland to the north and the ridge and valleys to the south. How far the Vale may have been considered to extend in this direction we may never know. Long before the days of Rutland Water there was a plan to link the Oakham-Melton Canal with a Stamford Canal which would have opened up the whole Vale to outside connections. Bit this came to nothing and, indeed, the Oakham-Melton canal itself foundered before the middle of the 19th century so that it was the railway which made the complete link.
