167 APPENDIX I INFORMAL CONSULTATION RESPONSES County Council Comments - Fully Subsidised Services Roberts 120 • Only service that goes to Bradgate Park • Service needed by elderly people in Newtown Linford and Stanton under Bardon who would be completely isolated if removed • Bus service also used by elderly in Markfield Court (Retirement Village) and removal will isolate and limit independence of residents • Provides link for villagers to amenities • No other bus service between Anstey and Markfield • Many service users in villages cannot drive and/or do not have a car • Service also used to visit friends, family and relatives • Walking from the main A511 is highly inconvenient and unsafe • Bus service to Ratby Lane enables many vulnerable people to benefit educational, social and religious activities • Many residents both young and old depend on the service for work; further education as well as other daily activities which can’t be done in small rural villages; to lose this service would have a detrimental impact on many residents • Markfield Nursing Care Home will continue to provide care for people with neuro disabilities and Roberts 120 will be used by staff, residents and visitors • Service is vital for residents of Markfield Court Retirement Village for retaining independence, shopping, visiting friends/relatives and medical appointments • Pressure on parking in Newtown Linford already considerable and removing service will be detrimental to non-drivers in village and scheme which will encourage more people to use service Centrebus -

ASHBY FOLVILLE to THURCASTON: the ARCHAEOLOGY of a LEICESTERSHIRE PIPELINE PART 2: IRON AGE and ROMAN SITES Richard Moore
230487 01c-001-062 18/10/09 09:14 Page 1 ASHBY FOLVILLE TO THURCASTON: THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF A LEICESTERSHIRE PIPELINE PART 2: IRON AGE AND ROMAN SITES Richard Moore with specialist contributions from: Ruth Leary, Margaret Ward, Alan Vince, James Rackham, Maisie Taylor, Jennifer Wood, Rose Nicholson, Hilary Major and Peter Northover illustrations by: Dave Watt and Julian Sleap Neolithic, Bronze Age, Iron Age, Roman and early Anglo-Saxon remains were excavated and recorded during construction of the Ashby Folville to Thurcaston gas pipeline. The earlier prehistoric sites were described in the first part of this article; this part covers three sites with Roman remains, two of which also had evidence of Iron Age activity. These two sites, between Gaddesby and Queniborough, both had linear features and pits; the more westerly of the two also had evidence of a trackway and a single inhumation burial. The third site, between Rearsby and East Goscote, was particularly notable as it contained a 7m-deep stone-lined Roman well, which was fully excavated. INTRODUCTION Network Archaeology Limited carried out a staged programme of archaeological fieldwork between autumn 2004 and summer 2005 on the route of a new natural gas pipeline, constructed by Murphy Pipelines Ltd for National Grid. The 18-inch (450mm) diameter pipe connects above-ground installations at Ashby Folville (NGR 470311 312257) and Thurcaston (NGR 457917 310535). The topography and geology of the area and a description of the work undertaken were outlined in part 1 of this article (Moore 2008), which covered three sites with largely prehistoric remains, sites 10, 11 and 12. -
THE PARISH and CHURCH of ROTHLEY, LEICESTERSHIRE: a RE-INTERPRETATION Vanessa Mcloughlin
THE PARISH AND CHURCH OF ROTHLEY, LEICESTERSHIRE: A RE-INTERPRETATION Vanessa McLoughlin The following article draws on data gathered, interpreted and recorded in the author’s Ph.D. thesis of 2006 concerning the manor, parish and soke of Rothley, Leicestershire. During her research the author used a combination of historical and archaeological evidence, and concluded that the church at Rothley was a pre- Conquest minster founded in the mid- to late-tenth century. Some of the evidence regarding the church and parish is summarised in this article. Subsequent archaeological evidence has led the author to revise the original proposal, and she now suggests a new date for the foundation of the church at Rothley between the late-seventh and mid-eighth centuries. This foundation can be placed in the context of a Christian mission and the work of bishops, who sought to found bases from which to evangelise and baptise a local population beginning to embrace Christianity. DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE Post-Conquest documentary evidence for Rothley church and parish is readily accessible: for example, the Domesday Book refers to Rothley as a royal holding and records a priest which in turn suggests the presence of a church;1 and the Rolls of Hugh of Wells, circa 1230 (hereafter the Matriculus), record that a vicar was installed at Rothley with chaplains to serve each of the chapels at Gaddesby, Keyham, Grimston, Wartnaby and Chadwell (with Wycomb), and in addition Gaddesby had all the rights of a mother church.2 The Matriculus also recorded that both the -
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. -

Rutland and Melton Labour Party
Rutland and Melton Labour Party 16 July 2015 The Review Officer (Leicestershire) Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14th Floor Millbank Tower Millbank London SW1P 4QP Dear Sir Leicestershire County Council Boundaries in the Borough of Melton Mowbray I write on behalf of the Rutland and Melton Constituency Labour Party. We have serious concerns about the proposals of Leicestershire County Council as they affect Melton Town and adjacent rural communities. It is easy to be critical but we have put considerable effort into working up a positive alternative that: Ensures, as far as reasonably possible, equality of representation, keeping within the Local Boundary Commission’s tolerance of 10% Recognises the interests, identities and needs of rural and urban communities, including the need for the recognisable community of Melton Town to be suitably represented Promotes effective and convenient local government by creating divisions that are an appropriate size so as to be easily manageable in terms of representation, and have clear boundaries. 1. Proposals a. Melton Town to have two Divisions: Melton East with 10,5101 voters (variance +5.33%) Melton West with 10,384 voters (variance +4.65%) b. Rural areas to have two divisions: Asfordby with 9,319 voters (variance -6.35%) Belvoir with 9,590 voters (variance -3.63%) 2. Urban & Rural Community Interests We set out to address the importance of the diverse interests and community identities of the town and villages across the Borough of Melton Mowbray. Melton Town does not have a Town Council and depends upon its Borough and County elected representatives to consider its particular interests, opportunities and challenges. -

A Review of Freshwater Fish in Leicestershire and Rutland by Andrew Heaton, County Recorder for Fish, 2013
A Review of Freshwater Fish in Leicestershire and Rutland By Andrew Heaton, County Recorder for Fish, 2013 1. Introduction 1.1 The Historic View Lacking the trout-haunted chalk streams or salmon-spawning upland rivers, Leicestershire and Rutland (L&R) have tended to be little regarded in fishery terms. Even the main coarse rivers (Soar, Welland) were not seen as measuring up to the Severn or Thames. In “The Compleat Angler”, Izaak Walton’s only reference to Leicestershire is to name it as one of the counties through which the Trent flows (forming the county boundary for a relatively short distance near Castle Donington). 1.2 Previous Studies There appear to have been few previous reviews or studies of fish populations related specifically to Leicestershire and/or Rutland. Browne (1889) listed L&R’s fish (also including details of fossil fish from the two counties). The wording used in the 1889 document was repeated almost exactly in Browne’s contribution to the Victoria County History (1907), though there is differentiation of River and Brook Lamprey in the 1889 publication, a distinction that was slightly confused in the VCH. Through the 20th Century, fish surveys were undertaken by the various water authorities, providing the information relevant to Leicestershire and Rutland mapped in Maitland (1972) and Davies et al (2004). Onions (2008, 2009) gave an overview of Leicestershire fish. 1.3 Recording Fish Whilst the bulk of fish surveys are undertaken by Environment Agency (EA) fisheries teams, utilising techniques such as netting and electrofishing, other people are recording fish and generating distribution maps.
