  • Tilton on the Hill Settlement Profile Introduction
    Tilton on the Hill Settlement Profile Introduction General Location: Tilton on the Hill (hereby referred to as Tilton), lies on the B6047 that connects Market Harborough (14 miles away) to Melton Mowbray (11 miles away). The village is in the north-east of Harborough District, sitting only 2 miles north of the A47. Tilton parish is one of the largest in the District and embraces numerous past and current settlements such as Halstead, Whatborough and Marefield. The settlement neighbours Skeffington to the south, Billesdon, Cold Newton and Lowesby to the west, Marefield and Owsten and Newbold to the north, with Loddington, Launde and Withcote lying to the east. Beyond its Harborough District neighbours, the parish is in close proximity to Melton Borough and Rutland County. The village centre is a conservation area (with the church, pub and Main Street constituting its centre) and the parish contains 5 scheduled ancient monuments. Such a rich history can be explained by Tilton’s location, at the crossroads of two ancient, pre-Roman pathways that date back to the Bronze Age. Furthermore, the village was recognised not only as ‘The Best Village in Leicestershire’ in the Calor Village of the Year Awards 2009, but also as the ‘Sustainability Village of the Year’ for the Midlands in the same year. An achievement that can be considered the fruits of ‘Tilton Green’s’ labour – a community centred on improving Tilton’s environmental record (discussed in Tilton Parish Council section). Lastly, Tilton is among one of the highest places in east Leicestershire, standing at 219 metres above sea level near the peak of the High Leicestershire area.

(iv) if options (iii) (a) or (b) are not achievable, to offer to sell the land to the Parish and/or District Councils for recreational purposes and to authorise officers to seek the necessary consent from the Secretary of State under the Learning and Skills Act 2000 to the disposal of the land.

  • Kirby Bellars October 2013 Author: Alan Fox
    VCH Leicestershire Texts-in-progress Kirby Bellars October 2013 Author: Alan Fox SOCIAL HISTORY Social Structure and Character In 1086, 71 per cent of the Kirby ‘parish’ was held directly by the lord of Melton, along with parts of seven other ‘parishes’; the remaining 29 per cent was held of the Melton overlord by Ralph.1 Kirby had over a quarter of all the land held directly by the overlord in the eight ‘parishes’, and probably had a large proportion of the total of its 100 freemen, 10 villeins and 13 bordars. In contrast, there were no freemen on Ralph’s lands, but just six villeins and four bordars. There were no ‘servi’ (serfs) mentioned in the ‘parish’. Although there were two manors in Kirby in the thirteenth century, by 1318 Roger Beler (I) was returned as the sole lord.2 The Beler family were resident in the parish, although Roger Beler (I) had national duties which would have frequently taken him away.3 In 1316 the founding of the chantry created another layer of land holding, with its head and landlord also resident in the parish. The dissolution in 1536 would have had a considerable impact on the social as well as economic life of the parish. Throughout the medieval period and into the eighteenth century some lords of the manor were at least partly resident in Kirby, particularly Roger Beler (II), Thomas Markham, the De la Fontaines, the Meres and possibly the Swillingtons. However when Sir John Meres (son of Ann de la Fontaine) died without issue in 1735, the manorial estate and the former 1 A.

  • Economic History
    VCH Leicestershire Texts-in-progress Kirby Bellars October 2013 Author: Alan Fox ECONOMIC HISTORY Overview Kirby Bellars is a rural parish and has never been a major manufacturing or service location. Throughout its history, the main economic activity has been farming. An important feature in the 19th and early 20th centuries was the development of foxhunting.1 The parish has been well served by road, water and rail transport facilities. Since at least the mid-nineteenth century, a shop provided basic provisions and later a post office was included but both have now closed.2 The Flying Childers Inn was established on Main Road next to Kirby Hall in the eighteenth century and was relocated to its present position in 1905.3 Farming Medieval farming 1 TNA, RG 13/3012, 109. 2 Melville & Co, Dir. Leics (1854), 159; Kelly’s Dir., Leics & Rutland (1912), 113. 3 Melton Times, 14 Jun 1985, Oral testimony from David Wheeler. 1 In 1086 Kirby had 17 carucates (27 per cent) out of the total of nearly 70 carucates, held by Geoffrey de Wirce in the eight ‘parishes’ of the manor of Melton, but none of the manor’s 84 a. meadow was in Kirby.4 It is probable that Kirby had a good share of Melton manor’s 48 ploughs, 100 freemen, 10 villeins and 13 bordars. Another seven carucates of land and 20 a. of meadow in Kirby were held by Ralph of Geoffrey de Wirce.5 Ralph had three ploughs and there were also six villeins and four bordars with another plough.
