  • Archaeological Resource Assessment of the Aggregates Producing Areas of Warwickshire and Solihull
    Warwickshire County Council Archaeological Resource Assessment of the Aggregates Producing Areas of Warwickshire and Solihull Final Report Draft Version 2.0 31/03/2008 By Magnus Alexander with Stuart Palmer and Laurence Chadd Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund English Heritage Project No 4681 Archaeological Resource Assessment of the Aggregates Producing Areas of Warwickshire Summary This document is an assessment of the archaeology associated with aggregate minerals in Warwickshire and Solihull. The project was undertaken by the archaeology section of Warwickshire Museum Field Services, based within the Adult, Health and Community Services Directorate of Warwickshire County Council. The project has characterised, digitally mapped and subsequently analysed the resource, in order to inform the development of both minerals development frameworks and archaeological research, and provide a sound dataset for management and decision-making. This project primarily matched the criteria in Objective 2 of the Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund (ALSF; strategic mitigation of future extraction): the analysis of existing data and wider dissemination matched Objective 3 (mitigation of past extraction). This project has used a number of data sources, primarily: relevant geological information, in particular that which is available in digital form from the BGS; relevant archaeological data, contained in the Warwickshire and Solihull HERs; aerial photographic information including additional mapping as part of English Heritage’s National Mapping Programme. The project has resulted in: a corpus of baseline data to inform future strategies; enhancement of the Warwickshire and Solihull HERs; increased awareness of archaeological issues in relation to aggregates extraction; dissemination via this project report, a non-technical leaflet and through the Warwickshire County Council web site.

  • Parish Profile
    PARISH PROFILE Looking for an open door? Read on…. 1 BISHOP’S INTRODUCTION If you are looking for an opportunity to work with an ‘open’ group of people and churches, the Arden Marches group, located around the large ‘village’ (more like a small town with its 6,000 residents) of Studley in the west of the Diocese, has long been an example of positive creativity and spiritual life, with excellent relationships among them and with the Diocese as a whole. They are a great group of people! This post provides a large population base in Studley, with smaller but equally valued communities around it. Like other posts emerging in the Diocese at this time, the Rector of Studley and the Arden Marches will be ministering in the context of the wider Diocesan commitment to think imaginatively and creatively about how best to approach mission and ministry in village contexts. I hope the new priest-leader of this Group will have a key contribution to these consultations and the actions that will follow, as the Arden Marches Group have much to offer from which others can learn, with their track record of working together for many years and their well-developed lay ministry. Indeed, they have in the interregnum already decided to start the process towards creating only one PCC for the group. That perhaps gives an indication of their commitment and quality of relationships in working together. The Diocese of Coventry is a forward-thinking Diocese, which encourages innovation and imagination. We welcome applicants who are ready to join in this creative engagement in opening doors for the gospel, and in seeking to grow healthy church communities that worship God more fully, make more new disciples and transform their communities more effectively.
