Lubenham Settlement Profile Introduction
Lubenham Settlement Profile Introduction General Location: Lubenham sits 2 miles west of Market Harborough. The village is situated on the A4304 which cuts through the village as it connects Market Harborough with Lutterworth and the M1. The parish is relatively large and populated, containing numerous settlements such as Lubenham village proper, Gartree Prison, Gartree village, Greenacres Traveller Park, and Bramfield Mobile Home Park. The most notable employers located in the area include Deichmann Shoes, who have their UK head office in the parish and the prison. Neighbouring villages include Foxton and Gumley (north), Laughton and Theddingworth (west), with Market Harborough town lying east. Also, the parish forms Harborough District’s southern boundary with Daventry District, with the border being marked by the course of the River Welland as it flows from its source near Husbands Bosworth towards Market Harborough, whilst also marking a long section of Leicestershire’s historic southern border with Northamptonshire. The Leicester line of the Grand Union Canal cuts through the parish in the north-west with Foxton Locks being no more than 500 metres further north along the waterway. Lubenham was a recipient of the prestigious ‘Village of the Year’ award in 2001, whereby the village performed considerably above average in the Community Involvement category. Evidence of this can be seen in the village throughout the calendar year, with the numerous local open spaces laying host to frequent and popular fundraising events as well as some extremely well-represented clubs and societies that meet often. Most popular include Open Gardens, Lubenham Heritage, Lubenham Raiders (having been joined by some very distinguished guests) and The Triumph Sports Six Club (the largest such club in the world). -
Leicestershire Sustainable Community Strategy
LEICESTERSHIRE SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY STRATEGY FINAL DRAFT MARCH 2008 1 Introduction I am pleased to present our Sustainable Community Strategy to you on behalf of Leicestershire Together, the Local Strategic Partnership for Leicestershire. Leicestershire Together includes all of the organisations and partnerships that deliver public services in Leicestershire, and we seek to improve the quality of life and of public services in the County. This draft Sustainable Community Strategy proposes priorities for improvement in Leicestershire over the next 5 years. These are largely based upon two draft evidence base reports ‘This is Leicestershire’ and ‘Places in Leicestershire’. The structure of the new Sustainable Community Strategy is quite different to that of the previous Community Strategy in that it focuses on what we are going to do rather than how we are going to do it. Our second Local Area Agreement (LAA2) is the key delivery framework for the strategy (the ‘how’ bit) – and more details on the LAA can be found later in this document. The challenge that faces us now is to deliver the ambitions outlined in this Strategy, making a real and measurable difference to the lives of Leicestershire people. David Parsons Chair, Leicestershire Together Contact details: Telephone: 0116 305 6977/8137 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.leicestershiretogether.org Write to us: Policy Team, Chief Executives Department, Leicestershire County Council, County Hall, Glenfield, Leicestershire LE3 8RA 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Leicestershire Together Leicestershire Together is the Local Strategic Partnership for Leicestershire and includes all of the organisations and partnerships that deliver public services in the County. Our aim is to improve the quality of life for the people of Leicestershire and make Leicestershire the best possible place to live and work for everyone. -
Planning Committee
14/00833/FUL – Theddingworth Development of a renewable energy farm, to Abbey Renewables Solar Energy Limited include the installation of solar panels, Target Date: 12.09.2014 transformer rooms and plant, temporary access and on-site tracks, security fencing and cameras, landscaping and other associated works, at Land At Beeches Farm, Mowsley Road, Theddingworth COMMITTEE SITE VISIT Recommendation: REFUSE for the following reasons: 1. The proposal, by virtue of its size, siting and visual prominence, would appear as a dominant and visually intrusive feature in the landscape, and would detrimentally affect the character of this part of the Welland Valley landscape. The proposed development therefore fails to accord with Policies CS9 and CS17 of the Harborough District Core Strategy and paragraph 17 of the National Planning Policy Framework. 2. The proposal, by virtue of its size, location and prominence, would appear as a dominant and intrusive feature, that would detrimentally affect the significance and setting of the Theddingworth Conservation Area and the Husbands Bosworth Conservation Area, the Grade I listed Church of All Saints Church, Theddingworth and the Grade II listed Theddingworth Lodge. The proposed development therefore fails to accord with Policies CS9 and CS11 of the Harborough District Core Strategy and paragraphs 132 and 134 of the National Planning Policy Framework. 3. The applicant has failed to demonstrate that the proposal would not detrimentally affect buried archaeological remains, and the application therefore fails to comply with Core Strategy Policy CS11 and paragraphs 128, 129 and 135 of the National Planning Policy Framework. Note: The decision has been reached taking into account paragraphs 186-187 of the National Planning Policy Framework. -

Bo to the World Corrections
[email protected] Burton Overy to the World by Frances Rouse, Jan 2012. (This article is produced here with the kind permission of Frances Rouse) • Also available in .pdf (PDF, 1.5 Mb) In the Lady Chapel of St Andrew's, Burton Overy, near the parish chest, is a monumental slab dedicated as follows: Here lie the bodies of WILLIAM, PATTY and PEGGY SULTZER children of JOHN AND CHRISTIAN SULTZER of this parish. WILLIAM died the 9th June 1773 aged 14 months. PATTY died 6th July 1779 aged 11 weeks. PEGGY died the 3 of August 1779 aged 15 weeks. (L5) Photo: Toni Smith When Toni Smith and her colleagues transcribed this they couldn't have known that a descendant of the Sultzers would one day find their work invaluable in tracing several branches of her family tree. Nichols (i) [email protected] Christian (nee Woodward) was the daughter of William Woodward (born 26.8.1709) and Ann Dolby (of Burton Overy;) they were married at Illston on the Hill c.1744; Ann was born there about 1724 and died 15.2.1792; she was the daughter of William Dalby(sic) (1692-1750) and his second wife Ann and the family were probably related to Rev. Chapman Dolby. (See further Woodward information below.) But how did the non-English name "Sultzer" appear in this small rural Leicestershire village? The connection seems to have begun with the Inclosure of 1765/6 when John Sultzer, whose origins are unfortunately unknown, arrived in the area to undertake the surveying, so crucial to this process. -
Reviews Pp.193-202
Reviews Peter Walker, James II and the Three Questions: Religious Toleration and the Landed Classes, 1687–1688 (Oxford and Berne, Peter Lang, 2010), 223 × 149mm, xxx + 310pp, ISBN 978-3-03911-927-1; ISSN 1661-1985 (pbk), £42. This book is based on the author’s Ph.D. thesis at Leicester University. It examines the attempt by the Catholic, James II, to repeal laws which discriminated against his co-religionists by packing Parliament with his supporters. In the winter of 1677–78, James ordered the lords lieutenants to canvas the gentry of their respective counties with three questions: would they consent to the repeal of the Test Act and the penal laws; would they support candidates who wished to abolish them; and would they accept the Declaration of Indulgence which granted general religious toleration. The author analyses the returns in detail and argues that they failed to garner the King any real support, but he also notes that many of those who responded negatively to the first two questions also answered positively to the third. He argues that this indicates more support for general toleration than has previously been allowed. Chapter 8 on the Leicestershire returns will be of most interest to readers of this journal. The county’s lord lieutenant was Theophilus Hastings, earl of Huntingdon, an appointee of James and pro-Crown despite being a Protestant. The returns contain replies from 27 of the counties landed gentry, whose responses roughly correspond to the national pattern. Only a fifth of the Protestant gentry in the county supported the King, even excluding those who failed to respond. -

The purpose of this document This document provides a record of the engagement that took place regarding the Great Glen Neighbourhood Plan area and related Neighbourhood Planning body. The main methods used to publicise the engagement process are also documented, along with the main findings from the engagement. A formal engagement period provided members of the public and other key stakeholders an opportunity to submit comment on the proposed neighbourhood plan area and proposed neighbourhood planning body for Ripley. The proposed neighbourhood planning body was Great Glen Parish Council and the proposed neighbourhood planning area is shown in Fig 1.
