  • The Rockingham Forest Connection
    King’s Cliffe: The Rockingham Forest Connection (With acknowledgments to our sources: ‘Rockingham Forest Revisited’ by Dr Peter Hill; ‘The Royal Forests of Northants 1558 – 1714’ by P A J Pettit; and ‘The Royal Forests of England’ by J Charles Cox.) Some early history … The ancient woodlands of the Rockingham Forest area were once part of a great prehistoric forest which stretched from Peterborough to Oxford. Stone Age man settled in the area and neolithic remains have been found in places such as Gretton, Oundle, Twywell, Weldon, Wansford and Brigstock. Bronze Age finds include pottery at Oundle, Corby, Weldon and Wakerley; a skeleton and bronze dagger near Corby; several burial sites; and a drinking cup at Fotheringay. Iron Age people are known to have settled on three pieces of high ground in the area – at Rockingham, Wadenhoe and at Wakerley. Remains of iron smelting furnaces at Wakerley show that our ancestors were already making use of iron ore deposits. The smelting process needed a lot of heat and they made charcoal to fuel their furnaces. The Romans also made use of the iron ore deposits. Extensive iron smelting from the Roman period has been unearthed close to Bulwick and in Bedford Purlieu woods. Roman occupation was not just a temporary affair. They drove a road west from Ermine Street running from Wansford to the foot of the hill outside King’s Cliffe. They also built villas in the area. Tessellated pavements have been excavated near Deene, at Lowick and Weekley, and a villa and large mosaics was found in the grounds of Apethorpe Hall in 1859.

The year before I had listened with excitement to the launch of our local commercial station, Liverpool's Radio City, and wanted to find out what other stations I might be able to pick up. In those days the Guide covered TV as well as radio, which could only manage to fill two pages – but then there were only 19 “ILR” stations.

  • Summary of Project to Evaluate Local Media Content in Northamptonshire: November 2010
    Summary of project to evaluate local media content in Northamptonshire: November 2010 1. Background and overview of Methodology The principle objective of the project was to evaluate sources of local content in Northamptonshire across various different media – newspapers, radio, online, regional television and social media. The project sought to answer two fundamental questions: a. How many local news and sports stories are published by each media channel? b. What is the source of those stories? Northamptonshire is currently covered by two Johnston Press daily newspapers, the Northampton Chronicle & Echo and the Northants Evening Telegraph, as well as one paid for weekly newspaper, the Daventry Express. All three newspapers have associated websites. In terms of commercial radio the county is served by Connect FM, which focuses on the towns of Kettering, Corby, Wellingborough and other areas in the north of the county, as well as Heart FM, which covers the whole of Northamptonshire. The BBC serves the county via BBC online and specifically the local Northampton website, BBC Radio Northampton and BBC Look East provides local TV coverage to most of Northamptonshire. The content of all the media outlined above was monitored over the course of a 4 week period which took place between 1st and 27th November 2010. As well as story counts for news and sport, the source of each item of content was also recorded against the following 13 categories: • Court / inquest • Blue light calls • Public Meetings / Agendas • Press Release • Other publicly available • Diary • Nibs – Press Release • Own Campaign • Possible paper original • Likely paper original • Possible BBC original • Likely BBC original • Other It should be noted that two BBC strike days fell during the monitoring period and have been excluded from the data where indicated.

    National Character 92. Rockingham Forest Area profile: Supporting documents www.naturalengland.org.uk 1 National Character 92. Rockingham Forest Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment 1 2 3 White Paper , Biodiversity 2020 and the European Landscape Convention , we are North revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.
