  • Bailey's Croft
    95 and 97 Main Street, Willoughby, photographed in 1985. ‘Bailey’sCroft’, Willoughbyon the Wolds DavidBailey From the early part of the eighteenth century the Bailey families who gave their name to the ‘Bailey Croft’ development at Willoughbylived in these cottages and the farm at the rear. The families originated in Nottingham before moving to the parishes of Wymeswoldand Nether Broughtonin Leicestershire, close to the border with Nottinghamshire. They finally settled at Willoughbyon the Woldsin the southernmosttip of Nottinghamshire. There they lived and worked, within the village community, for two centuries. A greater part of that time was spent living in the cottages pictured above. This building witnessed their growth into an established village family who, over five generations, were involved in shoemaking, joinery, shop-keeping and farming. They were joined in marriage by other families from Willoughbyand nearby parishes. The family had also become monconformistin the early ninetenthcentury and followed the Wesleyan Methodist tradition. Their lives were far from being uneventful, experiencing their share of tragedy. The advent of the twentieth century heralded the 1 Road map with distances (in miles) to surrounding settlements. decline of village life. Two World Wars, improved transport links, mass production and new farming methods changed village life forever. No longer was there a requirement for craftsmen or tradesmen within the community. Family members sought employment away from the village, where they married and raised a family. Consequently, with the passing of time, many of the families in the village ceased to exist. The Bailey family was no exception. In 1987 the last family member living at Willoughbyon the Wolds died.

Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire Wolds Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their 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 scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. 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 drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future. NCA profiles are working documents which draw on current evidence and knowledge. We will aim to refresh and update them periodically as new 1 The Natural Choice: Securing the Value of Nature, Defra information becomes available to us.

  • The State and the Country House in Nottinghamshire, 1937-1967
    THE STATE AND THE COUNTRY HOUSE IN NOTTINGHAMSHIRE, 1937-1967 Matthew Kempson, BSc. MA. Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2006 Abstract This thesis considers the state preservation and use of Nottinghamshire country houses during the mid-twentieth century, from the initiation of mass requisition in 1937 until 1967 when concerns for architectural preservation moved away from the country house. This thesis reviews literature on the landed estate in the twentieth century and the emergence of preservationist claims on the country house. Three substantive sections follow. The first discusses the declining representation of landowners within local governance in Nottinghamshire and the constitution of the County Council, and considers how estate space was incorporated within broadened concerns for the preservation of the historic environment and additionally provided the focus for the implementation of a variety of modern state and non-state functions. The second section considers how changing policy and aesthetic judgements impacted upon the preservation of country houses. Through discussion of Rufford Abbey, Winkburn Hall and Ossington Hall I consider the complexities of preservationist claims and how these conflicted with the responsibilities of the state and the demands of private landowners. The third section considers how estate space became valued by local authorities in the implementation of a variety of new modern educational uses, including the teacher training college at Eaton Hall and a school campus development at Bramcote Hills. The thesis concludes by considering the status of the country house in Nottinghamshire since 1967, and contemporary demands on the spaces considered historically in this study.
