  • A Cornerstone of the Historical Landscape
    Stourbridge's Western Boundary: A cornerstone of the historical landscape by K James BSc(Hons) MSc PhD FIAP (email: [email protected]) The present-day administrative boundaries around Stourbridge are the result of a long and complex series of organizational changes, land transfers and periods of settlement, invasion and warfare dating back more than two thousand years. Perhaps the most interesting section of the boundary is that to the west of Stourbridge which currently separates Dudley Metropolitan Borough from Kinver in Staffordshire. This has been the county boundary for a millennium, and its course mirrors the outline of the medieval manors of Oldswinford and Pedmore; the Domesday hundred of Clent; Anglo-Saxon royal estates, the Norman forest of Kinver and perhaps the 7th-9th century Hwiccan kingdom as well as post-Roman tribal territories. The boundary may even have its roots in earlier (though probably more diffuse) frontiers dating back to prehistoric times. Extent and Description As shown in figure 1, the boundary begins at the southern end of County Lane near its junction with the ancient road (now just a rough public footpath) joining Iverley to Ounty John Lane. It follows County Lane north-north-west, crosses the A451 and then follows the line of Sandy Lane (now a bridleway) to the junction of Sugar Loaf Lane and The Broadway. Along with County Lane, this section of Sandy Lane lies upon a first-century Roman road that connected Droitwich (Salinae) to the Roman encampments at Greensforge near Ashwood. Past Sugar Loaf Lane, the line of the boundary diverges by a few degrees to the east of the Roman road, which continues on in a straight line under the fields of Staffordshire towards Newtown Bridge and Prestwood.

    Examinations of the Bromsgrove District Plan (BDP) and Borough of Redditch Local Plan No.4 (BORLP4) Hearing Statement: Response to Inspector’s Matters, Issues and Questions Matter XB1: Cross-boundary Allocations 5YHLS Joint Statement prepared by Bromsgrove District and Redditch Borough Councils 4th March 2016 Bromsgrove District Council and Redditch Borough Council Response to the Inspector’s Matters, issues and Questions Matter XB1 - Cross-boundary Allocations XB1.2 Do the Foxlydiate and Brockhill Urban Extensions represent the most appropriate locations for meeting Redditch’s housing needs within Bromsgrove District, having regard to the provision of the necessary infrastructure, affordable housing and other facilities, and taking account of environmental constraints? Is the methodology for selecting these sites robust and transparent? Has appropriate consideration been given to alternative locations? Have exceptional circumstances been demonstrated to justify the removal of land from the Green Belt? 1. In addition to the previous comments made in the previous Hearing Statements XB1/1a and XB1/1b dated 3 rd December 2014 and 8th June 2015 Bromsgrove District Council (BDC) and Redditch Borough Council (RBC) would like to take the opportunity to re-emphasise and add the following comments. 2. The Councils’ consider that the Foxlydiate and Brockhill East urban extensions represent the most appropriate locations for meeting Redditch’s housing needs within Bromsgrove District. The analysis that informs this view can be found in the Housing Growth Development Study (HGDS) [CDX1.1], and further explanation is found in the more recent Narrative on the Site Selection Process for the Growth Areas at Redditch January 2016 [“The Narrative”] which were completed jointly by BDC and RBC officers.

  • Private Harry Cecil Mills
    Private Harry Cecil Mills Harry’s great grandfather (born around 1801 in Feckenham, Worcestershire) was Joseph Mills a nail maker. He married Mary Fowkes on 15th April 1821.i In 1841 Joseph lived with Mary and five of his children at Crabbs Cross, a hamlet partly in Feckenham Parish and partly in Ipsley Parish. His eldest children are twins,ii John and Elizabeth, both 15 years old (born 1826) followed by William, aged 13 (born 1828 and baptised 3rd August 1828iii), Charles aged 11 (born 1830) and Michael aged 2 (born 1839). A son, Joseph was born on 22nd July 1827, but was not recorded. on the census.iv Figure 1: 1848 newspaper announcement of the marriage of Joseph’s only daughter, Elizabeth, and naming his ‘brewhouse’. By 1851 only the youngest two children still lived at home at Crabbs Cross. Charles had taken up the trade of nail maker but William was still a scholar. Joseph had set up and ran, with the assistance of Mary, a beerhouse called the Royal Oak Inn (see Figure 1). The idea of a beerhouse goes back to the reaction against the serious effects of widespread gin drinking in the early 19th century, when Parliament made it legal for any householder to open his house for the sale (and consumption) of beer on payment of a modest fee to the licensing magistrate, subject to good conduct. The new Act had its effect, and thousands of beerhouses were opened in the 1830s, regardless of the suitability of the premises. The Royal Oak Inn is now a private house, next door to Crabbs Cross chip shop but it retains a ceramic plaque featuring a castle and: 'WEST COUNTRY ALES - 1760 - BEST IN THE WEST' set into v Figure 2: Ceramic sign for West Country the front wall.

  • Chapter 1. the Labourer and the Land: Enclosure in Worcestershire 1790-1829
    CHAPTER 1. THE LABOURER AND THE LAND: ENCLOSURE IN WORCESTERSHIRE 1790-1829 It is now generally accepted that enclosure in eighteenth-century England had a fundamental impact on the majority of agricultural labourers and was a key factor in their long decline from independent or semi-independent cottagers to impoverished and dependent day labourers. In the first half of the twentieth century there was a long-standing historical debate about enclosure that sprang partly from ideology and partly from arguments originally expressed by opponents of enclosure in the eighteenth century. As early as 1766, for example, Aris’ Birmingham Gazette warned its readers about rural depopulation resulting from farmers changing much of their land from arable to pasture and too many landowners using farmland for raising game.1 By the time the Hon. John Byng, (later Fifth Viscount Torrington) toured England and Wales between 1781 and 1794, the situation appeared to be even worse. At Wallingford, Oxfordshire, in 1781, Byng noted how enclosure enabled ‘the greedy tyrannies of the wealthy few to oppress the indigent many’ thus leading to rural depopulation and a decline in rural customs and traditions. A few years later, in Derbyshire in 1789, Byng lamented the fact that landlords had abdicated all responsibility to their tenants, leading to the growth of village poverty and a rise in the poor rates. One old woman told him how her cottage which she had rented for 50s a year had been swallowed up by enclosure and with it her garden and bee hives, her share in a flock of sheep, feed for her geese and fuel for her fire.
