The south-easterly facing dwelling was renovated in 2009 when it was reconfigured, electrically rewired, re-plumbed and damp-proofed. The charming house has a fresh feel and is presented with a mix of oak, stone flagged and carpeted flooring and some lovely detail features. The Devol kitchen is impressive, whilst the four bedrooms are served by four modern bath and shower suites. There are beautiful southerly views from all the principal rooms to its garden and, from the first floor, over its land. The conversion of the detached double garage into a studio annexe has also enacted planning consent (re. FUL/2009/1290) permitting a two storey extension wing to the house with a repositioned kitchen and a first floor sitting room. Approached along a sweeping gravelled driveway to the west of the house, a secondary access gateway to the east potentially allows for the creation of an ‘in and out’ driveway. Situation Ketton is an attractive village, 3 miles west of Stamford. The village supports a local shop and post office, a primary school and 2 public houses. There is also a doctor’s surgery and library. In addition to the village’s school, several of the area’s favoured schools, including Copthill, Brooke Priory and Witham Hall Prep and Stamford, Oakham and Uppingham Schools among others, are all within a 12 mile radius. Rutland is England’s smallest county and, in Rutland Water, has its largest reservoir by surface area. Less than 5 miles from the property, it offers a water based playground with sailing and fishing clubs, as well as cycle routes and walks. Stamford is an attractive Georgian Market Town, England’s first Conservation Area and well known for Burghley House. It is well- serviced and a pleasant market town to use as a retail and social base, whilst its railway station offers direct hourly services to Peterborough and Cambridge on the Birmingham Airport to Stansted Airport Midlands Cross Country line. Accommodation The front door opens within an open canopy porch, to an entrance hallway which is flanked by a study and a snug and also accesses a utility room, boot room and a stone flagged shower room. The principal rooms line the southern frontage of the house. The dual aspect study has an open fireplace and, adjacent to the ground floor shower/cloak room, has been used at times as a ground floor fifth bedroom. The snug has double doors from the hallway and an open fireplace. The oak floored Devol kitchen/breakfast room has an extensive range of units beneath granite and solid wood worktops, along with a large central island with breakfast bar seating. Incorporating a double Belfast sink, six-ring double oven Kenwood gas range, an electric double oven and dishwasher, the kitchen is well-equipped, whilst the pantry offers further storage. The dining room, separated by a staircase, has French doors to the garden, whilst the sitting room is a well-proportioned room with a ‘Clearview’ stove and oak dressed shelving units. At first floor, the vaulted and strip wood floored principal bedroom has an airy ‘New England’ feel with exposed timbers and fine views. It adjoins the family bathroom, which has wood flooring, a free-standing roll-topped bath and a separate Monsoon shower. Double bedroom two shares the principal landing and is currently used as a dressing room. From the secondary landing, double bedroom three adjoins a family shower room, whilst double bedroom four has an en-suite bathroom. Outside The gardens adjoin the house to the south with sheltered seating terraces from which to track the sun and enjoy the views towards Ketton Church. Largely lawned, the lower and upper gardens have well-stocked flower and lavender beds and a kitchen garden, whilst the lawns link around the annexe to the driveway. The gardens adjoin the post and rail fenced land, to which a kissing gate and six-bar gateway permit access. The land slopes gently down to the southern boundary with the River Chater, upon which there are riparian rights. There are fine views and vistas from the land and as a whole, the property has a lovely lifestyle feel. Annexe A detached stone built Studio Annexe lies across the driveway from the house with an open plan work room, in which plumbing is in place for a kitchen suite, a shower room adjoins. It is a versatile space for overspill accommodation, an office or games room. General Information Services: Mains electricity, water, gas and drainage are connected. Mains gas fired central heating.

    Rutland Local History & Record Society Registered Charity No. 700273 Ketton Village Walk September 2010 (updated 2020) Copyright © Rutland Local History and Record Society All rights reserved INTRODUCTION The centre of the village contains many excellent buildings constructed with the famous butter‑coloured Ketton limestone which has been quarried locally since the Middle Ages. Ketton limestone is a 'freestone' because it can be worked in any direction. It is regarded as the perfect example of oolitic limestone. Many of the stone buildings are roofed in Collyweston slates. These frost-split slates have been extracted from shallow mines at Collyweston and Easton on the Hill just The Priory about 1925. (Jack Hart Collection) across the Valley from Ketton. This walk has been prepared from notes left by the late Geoff Fox and the late Jeffrey Smith, with some additions. THE VILLAGE MAP The map attached to this guided walk is based on the 25 inch to one mile Ordnance Survey 2nd edition map of 1899.

  • The Welland Valley Partnership River Improvement Plan
    The Welland Valley Partnership Enhancing the River Welland Our invitation to support a new vision for the local environment January 2013 Foreword The Welland Valley Partnership - Working Together for a Better River The River Welland arises above Market Harborough and flows through the gently rolling countryside of Northamptonshire, Leicestershire and Rutland until it reaches Stamford where it is one of the features that makes the town so attractive. Below Stamford the River continues on its way to Market Deeping and Spalding, where its character changes and the water slows down to become one of the four fenland rivers which drain the Fens and finally enter the Wash. People have relied on the Rivers for thousands of years for water, food, transport and energy; as a result the River Welland and its valley have changed enormously. Even the course of the River Welland has moved; it used to flow through the Trinity Bridge in Crowland, but now runs almost a mile away and the bridge is a dry monument in the centre of the town. Figure 1: Trinity Bridge at Crowland. This triangular bridge once provided a crossing place over two channels of the River Welland. (©Dave Hitchborne and licensed for reuse under the Creative Commons Licence) 1: Trinity Bridge at While many of these changes have been beneficial, such as the creation of water meadows which were an important feature of the English countryside, others have had unintended side effects. For example, land drainage and the extensive dredging of the River upstream of Stamford have left us with an over-widened and over-deepened channel with little of its historic character.

  • Ketton Conservation Area
    Ketton Conservation Area Ketton Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan Draft for consultation August 2019 1 1.0 Background Ketton conservation area was designated in 1972, tightly drawn around the historic core of Church Road, Chapel Lane, Redmiles Lane, Aldgate and Station Road and extended in 1975 to its current size. 2.0 Location and Setting Ketton is a large village located 4 miles south west of Stamford on the Stamford Road (A6121). It has been identified within the Rutland Landscape Character Assessment (2003) as being within the ‘Middle Valley East’ of the ‘Welland Valley’ character area which is ‘a relatively busy, agricultural, modern landscape with many settlements and distinctive valley profiles.’ The river Chater is an important natural feature of the village and within the valley are a number of meadow areas between Aldgate and Bull Lane that contribute towards the rural character of the conservation area. The south western part of the conservation area is particularly attractive with a number of tree groups at Ketton Park, the private grounds of the Priory and The Cottage making a positive contribution. The attractive butter coloured stone typical of Ketton is an important feature of the village. The stone quarry and cement works which opened in 1928 is located to the north. A number of famous buildings have been built out of Ketton Stone, such as Burghley House and many of the Cambridge University Colleges. Although the Parish Church is of Barnack stone. The historic core is nestled in the valley bottom on the north side of the River Chater and extends in a linear form along the High Street, continuing onto Stamford Road (A6121).

  • A Late Roman Coin Hoard and Burials, Garley's Field, Ketton, Rutland Pp
    A LATE ROMAN COIN HOARD AND BURIALS, GARLEY’S FIELD, KETTON, RUTLAND 2002–2003 Simon Carlyle Other contributors: Trevor Anderson, Mark Curteis, Roy Friendship-Taylor, Tora Hylton In March 2002, a Late Roman coin hoard and human remains were discovered during the mechanical excavation of an agricultural drainage sump in Garley’s Field, Ketton, Rutland. Following an initial examination and assessment of the site by Northamptonshire Archaeology and officers of the Leicestershire Museums, Arts and Records Service, funding was sought from English Heritage to carry out an archaeological investigation to excavate fully the disturbed burials and to examine the surrounding area for evidence of further archaeological remains. The programme of work, which was carried out by Northamptonshire Archaeology between August 2002 and January 2003, comprised remedial excavation and metal detecting, geophysical and fieldwalking surveys. The excavation and metal detecting survey resulted in the identification of five graves, including the one that had been completely destroyed by the machine excavation that led to the discovery of the site. The remains of at least 11 inhumation burials were recovered, along with evidence that at least three of the graves had been re-used. Three bracelets, one of shale and two of copper alloy, and two pottery accessory vessels were recovered from two of the graves, providing a date for the burials from the 3rd century onward. A further 326 coins were also found, increasing the total number of coins and coin fragments from the hoard to 1,418. The hoard had been deposited in one of the graves, either at the time of burial or perhaps as a later insertion.
