Ketton History Group Meeting 12 September 2019 A lively and enjoyable meeting where 11 members discussed a number of topics starting with a Public Health Report from 1949 for Ketton Rural District Council. Ketton Rural District Council whose offices were in Stamford, covered a number of villages including Clipsham, Essendine, Great Casterton, Ketton, Little Casterton, Pickworth, Ryhall, Tinwell and Tixover. The district had a growing population of over 2900 with 855 dwellings. The birth rate was above the average for England and Wales, and no children under 1 year of age had died. The infection rate was low. The ambulance service was provided by St Johns Ambulance on behalf of Rutland County Council. There were no council houses built during the year, but 4 were under construction in the village.There was a piped water supply in Ketton that was not universally available, but work was in hand to replace pumped water from boreholes. At this time there were two slaughter houses in Ketton. The sewage system was not yet in place and there were major concerns with the safe disposal of night soil. Collyweston had a recent Heritage weekend that was attended by some of our members. It was very interesting but despite a geophysical survey the site or size of Margaret Beaufort’s Collyweston Palace was not absolutely identified. A discussion on roads through Ketton and how they had changed over the years produced a number of ideas about the old routes including the suggestion that the road to Collyweston from Ketton had originally followed Sinc Lane through Aldgate. There was also discussion on Toll Roads. It was suggested that the group should look at local buildings, who built them and how they had changed. Finally there was a discussion on village archives. Meetings for 2019 Meetings are planned for 10 Oct, 14 Nov 2019. All meetings will be in the Parish Office starting and 7pm. .

Action plan 3 INTRODUCTION PARISH PLANS Parish plans are part of the “Vital Villages” initiative of the Countryside Agency, run locally through the Rural Community Council (Leicestershire & Rutland). A Parish Plan should provide a picture of a village, identifying through consultation the concerns and needs of its residents. From the plan villages should identify actions to improve the village and the life of the community. The resulting Village Action Plan is then used to inform the County Council, through the Parish Council. Parish Plans have a statutory place in local government. GREAT CASTERTON PARISH PLAN Great Casterton’s Parish Plan started with a meeting of villagers in June 2002. There was particular interest because of a contentious planning decision imposed by the County Council on the village. The Community Development Officer for Rutland, Adele Stainsby, explained the purpose of the plan and the benefits for the village. A committee was formed, and a constitution drawn up. The Parish Council promised a small initial grant while an application for Countryside Agency funding was prepared. The money granted was to be balanced by the voluntary work of villagers.

THE ROMAN and ANGLO-SAXON CEMETERY at GREAT CASTERTON: the 1966 EXCAVATION Peter Liddle
THE ROMAN AND ANGLO-SAXON CEMETERY AT GREAT CASTERTON: THE 1966 EXCAVATION Peter Liddle Based on a report by Guy Grainger and Christine Mahany, with contributions from Bernard Denston, Helena Hamerow and John Shepherd This paper, which is based on a completed monograph written by Guy Grainger from notes and records by Christine Mahany, presents the results of an excavation in 1966 of Roman and Anglo-Saxon burials on the north side of the Roman defences of Great Casterton. The main conclusion is that Roman burials, in all probability, continue into the fifth century in an extensive area north of the walled town. At some stage in the later fifth century, Anglo-Saxon cremation burials were buried to the east, while somewhat later (where there is a relationship), Anglo-Saxon inhumation burials are also present. INTRODUCTION Circumstances of the excavation During the course of road-widening operations in Ryhall Road by Rutland County Council in September 1966, F. Rotherham, the foreman in charge of the work, noticed that human bones and Saxon pottery were being disturbed by the mechanical excavator. He immediately informed Nottingham University, and Stamford and Oakham Museums. An emergency excavation was accordingly undertaken, firstly by J. L. Barber of Oakham School Museum and the late Malcolm Dean, and subsequently by Christine Mahany for the Stamford Archaeological Research Committee on behalf of the Ministry of Public Building and Works. The excavation continued for six weeks. The Assistant Supervisor was C. S. B. Young, but otherwise the labour was provided entirely by volunteers. In view of the nature of the emergency it was decided to concentrate the available resources on recovering as much as possible of the plan of the cemetery, and not to attempt to excavate underlying features.

He thought that the ice-sheet was general over the northern part of the British Isles, and on a much larger scale than was usually admitted-- and that one of the obstacles to its recognition was the later glacia- tion along the valleys, which was more conspicuous than the older traces, and another the difficulty which some people had in ignoring the present coast-line. Mr. J. CLIFTOI~"WARD stated that in the northern parts of the Lake district he had found that the direction of the ice-flow must have been mainly to the north. The AVT~OR, in reply, remarked that in Greenland, whatever might theoretically be the case, ice is pushed for scores or hun- dreds of miles down into the sea, until it gets out of its depth, and eventually floats off as icebergs. He pointed out the correspondence of the main valleys of Ireland with glaciations on the surface of rocks from Scotland, and exhibited specimens and rubbings in illus- tration of various characters of weathering and wear from different natural causes. FEnRV~RY 5, 1873. Thomas Cheekley, Esq., 70 Lichfield Street, Walsall; John Mac- kenzie, Esq., Government Examiner of Coal-fields for New South Wales, Newcastle, N. S.

RUTLANDSHIRE. THlS is an inland county, and the smallest ir. England, being only about eighteen miles in length, fit its greatest breadth not more than sixteen, an(1 its circumference fifty-eight; comprising 149 square miles, or 95,3fiO acre~. of which about 43,OOt) are uudet· tillage. It is bounded ou the north-west aud south-west by Leicestershire; on the south and south -eaRt by Nurthamptonshire, trom which it is separated by the I'ive:r WeJland; and the county of Lincoln is the boundary on ils east and north· eastern sidell.-This districc, at the time of the Roman invasion, formed a part of the territory of the Coritani: under the Romans it was included in the divhion called Flavia ClBsariensis: at Great Casterton was a Roman station, but antiquaries disagree concerning its llame. By the Saxons the district was comprised in the kingdom of Mercia. In Domesday book Roteltlnd is mtnlioned as being composed of the t\o\'O wapentakes of Alstoe and Martiosley; and the res~ of the county, lit Ihat periml, was included in Northamplonshi,'e. Rut18nd is first described as a dis tinct county ill the fifth year of King John, at Ihr coronation of whose queen, Isabel, it was, amongst other lands, assigned in parliament tor her dower. But few important historical events are connected with this county. In 1470, on the 27th of April, an army uf Lancaslt'I'ians was defeated by Edward IV, M Horn, witb a loss of thirteen thousand men, wht'n Sir Thomas Wells and Sir Thomas de Launde were taken pl'isoners, and shortly afterwards beheaded: this engagement has been jocularly styled' the Baule of Lose-coat Field,' (mm the disper-ed fugitives having ca,t off their coats in order to be le~ encumbered.
