We give the highest priority to articles which may help other members in pursuing their own researches into family history. This might be because of the results achieved, difficulties experienced and how they were overcome, the use of new or unusual records and archives, research into events before 1800 or unusual findings. Where appropriate, reference should be made to the sources used and their location. The Society reserves the right to edit all material submitted for publication. Copyright It is the contributor’s responsibility to ensure that material submitted for publication does not breach copyright. This particularly applies to illustrations and other matter obtained from libraries and record offices or from the internet. The Editor reserves the right not to publish if copyright is in doubt. Unless otherwise agreed, the Society holds the copyright of all articles published in ‘Lancashire’. If you wish to retain the copyright of an article, this must be requested when submitting the article for publication. Those wishing to reproduce an article published in ‘Lancashire’ should seek permission from the Editor. How should articles be sent? We prefer to receive copy in electronic format, either attached to an e- mail or on a CD. Microsoft Word, Rich Text format (RTF) or plain text (TXT) formats are acceptable. If you do not have access to a computer, we can arrange for typing, but as this adds work and delay, we would prefer, if at all possible, that you get a friend who has a computer to type the article for you. We welcome photographs to illustrate articles. These should be scanned at 300 dots per inch resolution and submitted in TIF or JPG image format. We can scan your photographs if required. Please avoid sending an original print, if the photograph is rare or of sentimental value. Articles must be accompanied by your full name, address, and membership number plus your e-mail address if you have one.

  • Application Report – 20/01379/Ful
    APPLICATION REPORT – 20/01379/FUL Validation Date: 22 December 2020 Ward: Astley And Buckshaw Type of Application: Full Planning Proposal: Erection of four dwellings with garages and an additional triple garage adjacent Buckshaw Hall Location: Buckshaw Hall Knight Avenue Buckshaw Village Chorley PR7 7HW Case Officer: Caron Taylor Applicant: Mr Chris Langson Agent: LMP Ltd Consultation expiry: 23 June 2021 Decision due by: 16 February 2021 RECOMMENDATION 1. It is recommended that planning permission is granted subject to conditions and a S106 legal agreement to tie the profits from the sale of the proposed dwellings to the renovation of Buckshaw Hall. SITE DESCRIPTION 2. The application site is located within the original curtilage of Buckshaw Hall, a Grade II* listed manor house. The land surrounding the building and the application site has been developed into Buckshaw Village. The site is surrounded by dwellings with those associated with Buckshaw Village located to the north, east and south and Buckshaw Hall itself located to the west, along with a converted barn. Site access is gained from Knight Avenue to the east. Planning permission and listed building consent were granted initially in 2003 to make the building weatherproof and then in 2006 for the conversion of the barn within the grounds of Buckshaw Hall for ancillary accommodation and changes to Buckshaw Hall itself so it can be brought back into use as a dwelling. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 3. Buckshaw Hall itself is believed to date in part, from as early as the mid-1600’s with extensive renovation in the late 19th Century.

  • A Glimpse - the History of Beech Hill
    A GLIMPSE - THE HISTORY OF BEECH HILL Introduction Beech Hill Housing estate is less than 100 years old and therefore historical accounts of the area are at a premium. This article concentrates on the period from the late 18th century to present day with particular emphasis on one of Wigan’s premier families, the Thicknesse family of Beech Hill. Victorian Wigan in the mid 1800’s had a population of around 32,000 which was concentrated mainly to the east and south of the town in Scholes and Wallgate and to the west along Ormskirk Road to Orrell. Although housing was creeping up Gidlow Lane and along Woodhouse Lane towards Martland Mill the west and north of Wigan consisted mainly of agricultural land and was sparsely populated. Over the next 50 years the population of the town was to double with Irish immigrants and workers from all parts of the country coming to the area seeking employment in the coal, cotton, engineering and railway industries. Beech Hill of Old The 1845/46 Ordnance Survey (OS) map of Wigan shows a snapshot of Beech Hill as it was 175 years ago. It was dominated by a large wooded area, presumably of Beech trees, stretching from Beech Hill Lane to modern day Wellfield Road and from Beech Hill Avenue to modern day Acacia Crescent. In the centre was a large house dating from the late 1600's, called appropriately Beech Hill Hall. The hall was in its own grounds with a formal garden, parkland and large ponds. By overlaying a modern map over the 1845 version the location of Beech Hill Hall can be pinpointed as being off Ascroft Avenue in the Cherry Grove cul-de-sac.

  • Sample Dissertation Format
    ECOS Project: Using Data Analysis to Improve Marketing Response at D.C. Thomson Tom Davenport September 2016 Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Master of Science in Big Data Computing Science and Mathematics University of Stirling Abstract Data analysis tools and techniques provide a substantial opportunity for business. Compa- nies have become able to store more information not only about user’s personal information, but also around their interaction with the company, through their response to emails and to how they behave on their site. This has created a vast pool of data that when analysed ap- propriately can provide useful evidence for marketing decision making. The data however needs to be put through a series of processes to ensure that it is of a sufficient quality that analysis is grounded in fact and will be of business value. This project was undertaken for the DC Thomson company to examine the response to emails sent during the Christmas season from October to December of 2015. It created a series of data models that would highlight what important factors were involved in making an email successful, and whether there were patterns amongst groups of users that purchased from emails. The objectives of the project were to create one model that could reflect the structural factors that made emails successful, and another model that would show what fac- tors had an influence in leading a customer to purchase. It involved a multi-level analysis of different sources of data, creating and assessing the quality of datasets that could be used to generate data models.

    file IL COMBO v2 for PDF.doc updated 13-12-2006 THE INDUSTRIAL LOCOMOTIVE The Quarterly Journal of THE INDUSTRIAL LOCOMOTIVE SOCIETY COMBINED INDEX of Volumes 1 to 7 1976 – 1996 IL No.1 to No.79 PROVISIONAL EDITION www.industrial-loco.org.uk IL COMBO v2 for PDF.doc updated 13-12-2006 INTRODUCTION and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This “Combo Index” has been assembled by combining the contents of the separate indexes originally created, for each individual volume, over a period of almost 30 years by a number of different people each using different approaches and methods. The first three volume indexes were produced on typewriters, though subsequent issues were produced by computers, and happily digital files had been preserved for these apart from one section of one index. It has therefore been necessary to create digital versions of 3 original indexes using “Optical Character Recognition” (OCR), which has not proved easy due to the relatively poor print, and extremely small text (font) size, of some of the indexes in particular. Thus the OCR results have required extensive proof-reading. Very fortunately, a team of volunteers to assist in the project was recruited from the membership of the Society, and grateful thanks are undoubtedly due to the major players in this exercise – Paul Burkhalter, John Hill, John Hutchings, Frank Jux, John Maddox and Robin Simmonds – with a special thankyou to Russell Wear, current Editor of "IL" and Chairman of the Society, who has both helped and given encouragement to the project in a myraid of different ways. None of this would have been possible but for the efforts of those who compiled the original individual indexes – Frank Jux, Ian Lloyd, (the late) James Lowe, John Scotford, and John Wood – and to the volume index print preparers such as Roger Hateley, who set a new level of presentation which is standing the test of time.
