The village of Netherseal itself lies off the A444 which leads to Burton Upon Trent, 9 miles distant. Netherseal is the southernmost village in the county of Derbyshire, bordering Leicestershire and is within close proximity to Staffordshire and Warwickshire. Situated 5 ½ miles southwest of the market town of Ashby-De-La-Zouch and recorded in the Doomsday Book, this picturesque village has many historic Grade II Listed buildings. The centre of the village is now a conservation area and includes the 17th Century Alms Houses and St Peter’s Church which was built in the 19th Century and stands on the site of a 13th Century church. There is a local village pub, school and hall with numerous clubs, societies and associations making for thriving village life. The market towns of Tamworth (11 miles), Sutton Coldfield (20 miles) and Solihull (27 miles) are within easy commutable distance, as are the cities of Lichfield (22 miles), Leicester (25 miles), Birmingham (27 miles) and Derby (31 miles). East Midlands Airport (18miles) and Birmingham International Airport (23 miles) are also close by. Schools in the area include a thriving village primary school whilst in the independent sector there are schools at Manor House School in Ashby, Grace Dieu Manor, Twycross, Foremark, Repton and Denstone. The delightful surroundings and the convenience of the location combine to make this arguably one of the finest positions for a house for miles around. IntroDUCTION Mill farm is a captivating Grade II Listed country house which occupies a truly wonderful and magical position, boasting over 6’000sq ft of living space. Distinctive by its design, the property has been completely transformed, having undergone a comprehensive renovation and extension programme of the highest order. Paying meticulous attention to detail both the owners and the architect have been careful to retain and reflect the period integrity of the original farmhouse whilst successfully blending in a superb extension and linking the old with the new. The picturesque mill, which wouldn’t look a miss in a Constable painting with the river and pond as a back drop, has been fully restored to provide additional self-contained accommodation, would be suitable for an au pair/dependant relative or guest annex. The mill dates to back the 18th Century; however reference was made to a mill on this site in the Doomsday Book. On approaching the property off Church Street, through the secure entry gates, the drive sweeps around into an impressive courtyard which provides ample parking and access to the detached four car garage with electric sectional doors. There is an array of stables and barns, which subject to planning, would create a fantastic conversion opportunity for home office space, further self-contained family accommodation or leisure complex. ACOMMODATION Internally the accommodation extends to over 6’000 sq ft, providing versatile living space for the modern family, enjoying a stylish and contemporary finish. The use of oak has been a major ingredient throughout, Farrow and Ball paintwork, an efficient oil- fired central heating system, under floor heating, new windows, a handcrafted kitchen, and Italian designer bathroom fittings Pozze & Ginori give the property a thoroughly modern feel. A walk into the house will reveal an ENTRANCE HALL with an attractive oak and stone return staircase rising to an impressive galleried LANDING which provides an immediate impact as you walk in.

It sets out the special historic and architectural interest that makes the character and appearance of Netherseal worthy of protection. It also assesses the degree of damage to that special interest and thus opportunities for future enhancement. This document will be used by the Council when making professional judgements on the merits of development applications. The Netherseal Conservation Area was designated by South Derbyshire District Council on 13th July 1978, and was extended by South Derbyshire District Council on 9th June 2011. Summary Netherseal lies in the extreme south of the County of Derbyshire. The edge of the parish, and of the village, is marked by the River Mease, which snakes along its southern perimeter. This also marks the County boundary with Leicestershire. The village did at one time belong within Leicestershire and was only drawn into Derbyshire in 1897. The area is characterised largely by rolling lowland, becoming almost flat around the River Mease. The Netherseal Conservation Statement Character Area soils in Netherseal are generally rich clays, but free draining and shallow upon the sandstone bedrock, with large areas of alluvium and river terrace deposits trailing the river valley.

  • Slctccstcvsljtvc Antr
    Slctccstcvsljtvc antr 10th January, 1855. A MEETING was held in the Town Library, Guild Hall, Leicester, for the purpose of establishing this society. The Venerable the Archdeacon of Leicester was in the chair. He requested Mr. Ingram (the honorary secretary, pro tempore) to read the letters received from various persons who had signified their desire to become members.—The first was from the Bishop of the Diocese, who also expressed his willingness to promote the objects of the society. The second was from Earl Howe, regretting his inability to attend. In a previous letter his lordship stated " I shall be very happy to be enrolled a member, and I assure you I take a decided interest in your proceedings/' Letters from the Rev. G. E. Gillett (mentioning that the Duke of Rutland would accept the office of Patron); from Sir F. G. Fowke (excus­ ing his non-attendance on the ground of ill health, which con­ fined him to his room); and from Mr. Geoffrey Palmer (apolo­ gizing for his inability to be present)—were also laid before the meeting. This part of the business being concluded, the venerable Chairman called on Mr. W. Perry-Herrick, who rose to move the first resolution. He expressed his gratification at being able to take part in the formation of a society which he felt certain would be attended with many beneficial effects, in conducing to the study of eccle­ siastical architecture and general antiquities in the county. He stated his regret that he was so little acquainted with either Archaeology or Architecture ; but that he knew sufficient to enable him to appreciate the value of the labours of those who had leisure to devote themselves more particularly to these interesting pur­ suits, and he hoped, by associating with them at the meetings of the society, he might improve his knowledge, and receive much information and instruction.

  • The Manors of Allexton, Appleby and Ashby Folville
    The Manors of Allexton, Appleby and Ashby Folville. BY GEORGE FARNHAM, M.A., F.S.A., AND A. HAMILTON THOMPSON, M.A., F.S.A. PREFACE. Since the appearance of Nichols' History of Leicestershire, pub­ lished between 1795 and 1815, the materials for original work upon local history and topography have been considerably extended, and many classes of documents are now available for research which serve at once to supplement and correct the information contained in the older county histories.. While Nichols' famous volumes must always remain the foundation for any future work upon the history of Leicestershire, the student who knows how to make use of them finds that their statements constantly stand in need of verification and that their accuracy is seriously impaired by their author's partial and arbitrary use of his documents. For some time past the present writers have entertained the idea of bringing together the results of their several collections of material illus­ trating the manorial and ecclesiastical annals of the county, and it will be found that the notes which follow in the form of con­ nected narratives endeavour to fill up gaps in the story of the three places concerned and to present in consecutive order information which hitherto has been treated merely in outline or overlooked altogether. For the chief part of the work, tracing the descent of the manors, and for the pedigrees Mr. Farnham is responsible. The notes upon advowsons and the lists of incumbents, which con­ siderably amplify Nichols' imperfect and carelessly compiled lists, are supplied by his collaborator.

  • 4. Water Resources and Public Water Supply
    Creating the environment for business 4. Water Resources and Public Water Supply In developing a Water Cycle Study it is important to consider the regulatory system in which the water companies in England and Wales operate. Water resources are managed by the Environment Agency in England and Wales, in the form of granting (or refusing) abstraction licences to abstract water for various purposes. Once water has been abstracted from the environment the responsibility for public water supplies is transferred to the water undertakers who have a statutory duty to provide water supplies. There are two water undertakers who supply customers in the study area: Severn Trent Water and South Staffordshire Water. Water resources can constrain development at two levels. At a strategic level, the overall balance between demand for water and the amount of water that is available for supply must be managed to ensure that existing and new homes can continue to be supplied. More locally, the extent and condition of the existing supply infrastructure affects the water companies’ ability to distribute water more locally. Both of these issues are explored in this chapter in relation to the Derby HMA. 4.1 Water Resources Supply and Management Information on public water supply in this area has been taken from the companies’ draft Water Resource Management Plans (dWRMPs) and relevant changes made by the companies to these plans as part of the statutory consultation process that has occurred, as detailed in their respective Statements of Response. Additional data has also been made available specifically for the purpose of this study.
