Manor Court, Manor Road, South Wingfield, Alfreton, DE55 7NZ the MANOR The Manor Manor Court, Manor Road, South Wingfield, Alfreton, DE55 7NZ THE MANOR The Manor is a handsome Grade II listed property positioned in a courtyard setting in the Derbyshire village of South Wingfield between Chesterfield and Derby. Historically used for a variety of purposes, it was originally built as a farm house until it became the Horse and Groom coaching Inn circa 1817. It later become the Manor Hotel, offering accommodation to tourists visiting nearby medieval ruins Wingfield Manor. ACCOMMODATION The Manor is a large 5 bedroom, Grade II listed, detached property set over three floors. This stunning characterful property located in the sought after village of South Wingfield is surrounded by open fields and countryside walks to local villages. The main property offers over 3,600 sq. ft. of well-appointed accommodation, to include a large entrance hall with original stained-glass doors, two generous reception rooms with abundant character features including the large open fireplace, separate log burner, original beams, window seats and oak flooring. The snug located off the main living room provides a place to read or unwind and also gives access to the formal dining room, the garden room with slate flooring, shower room with w/c and a second utility room. The living room also leads through to the large shaker-style kitchen diner, certainly the heart of the home, with its Aga Range set within the former fireplace, double Belfast sink, solid wood counter tops, oak beamed ceiling, tiled floor and a large pantry. The kitchen leads through to the stunning oak framed orangery that boasts oak flooring and a feature wall of exposed stone. The large boot room and utility room are also accessed from the kitchen and provide access to the rear garden. Seller Insight Current owner Jane has lived here for 16 years and fills us in on the property’s more recent history, ‘After its years as a hotel it once again became a pub, featuring in TV drama Peak Practice for some while, before eventually being converted back into a house in 2000. The conversion wasn’t done very well, so in my time here I’ve worked hard to expose as many original features as possible and give it back some authenticity, whilst at the same time modernising it,’ says Jane. ‘The place is spacious and makes an ideal family home for children to enjoy a happy childhood of den building, camp fires, tree houses and wonderful walks. For further exploration, the Peak District National Park is only a short drive away,’ says Jane, who goes on to say, ‘the village is a social and friendly place with an annual fireworks display, Christmas carol singing around the tree, book clubs, a historic society, great local pubs and a fantastic cricket ground.’ The village enjoys easy access to the A38 and M1 motorway and is only 3.7 miles from Alfreton train station which offers countrywide links to major towns and cities. Despite the house being in a courtyard setting it feels very private and secluded. The rooms are spacious but also feel intimate and have a lovely cosiness to them. The garden is sectioned into different areas with plenty of spots to sit and admire the gorgeous Derbyshire views. The overall maintenance of the garden is low. It’s an amazing space for hosting parties.’ ‘The kitchen, as it’s the heart of the house with its Aga and hand-built kitchen. It’s such a warm and welcoming place where everyone – friends and family – gravitate to.’ ‘All of it! It’s just a really beautiful place; rolling hills, sheep in the fields, miles of footpaths to explore. It sits within a conservation area and is a truly idyllic spot.’ ‘All of the celebrations and big family parties we’ve hosted over the years – the place is at its best when full of people.’ ‘I’m going to miss the space to host and accommodate everyone. The kids have flown the nest now and it’s time to downsize.’* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property. They have not been independently verified, should not be relied on without verification and do not necessarily reflect the views of the agent. The stairs leading from the sitting room ascend to a boutique writing area with a stained-glass window that highlights the first floor landing with soft touches of turquoise and hints of purple. This floor offers 4 good sized double bedrooms of which one boasts its own tv room/separate lounge, ideal for those with older children looking for their own space. The family bathroom is also located on the first floor and provides a place of tranquillity with the large modern bath, chrome freestanding heated towel rail, Italian limestone tiles and stained-glass windows. The second floor leads up to the master suite which comprises a large double bedroom with dual aspect views, a large walk-in dressing room and a wet room that provides a boutique feel with 2 original fireplaces, original doors, feature wallpapered wall, and crystal chandelier. OUTSIDE The property sits on a good-sized plot that offers an enclosed garden including a large patio area, ideal for BBQ’s and entertaining, a feature well and lawn area that provides both versatility and privacy. The rear garden also gives access to the single car garage and car port located at the rear of the property. LOCATION The village of South Wingfield is dominated by the imposing ruins of Wingfield Manor that look down on the village from its hillside position. Wingfield Manor is also shrouded in history, as it was the prison home of Mary Queen of Scots on three occasions and the village was the site of two English Civil war sieges. The area is also known for the famous Pentrich Rising in 1817, an uprising by local framework knitters. Today the village of South Wingfield benefits from good local amenities including pubs, restaurants and local attractions. For those who are keen on the outdoors, Chatsworth House is only 30 minutes away; the Derbyshire Dales are only 20 minutes away; the picturesque village of Bakewell is also less than 30 minutes’ drive, whilst Matlock is 15 minutes away. The area also boasts excellent commuter links to the A38 and the M1 providing easy access to Nottingham, Derby, Ashbourne, and Chesterfield.

  • Rural Discontent in Derbyshire 1830·1850
    RURAL DISCONTENT IN DERBYSHIRE 1830·1850 Alan Frank Jones Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Sheffield January 2004 ii Alan Frank Jones RURAL DISCONTENT IN DERBYSlllRE 1830-1850 ABSTRACT Social protest, especially in agricultural regions, has occupie~ and caused considerable debate among, historians for many years. This thesis seeks to add to this debate, by looking at various forms of protest in Derbyshire between 1830 and 1850. This thesis examines three aspects of criminal activity: poaching, arson and animal maiming. It contends that none of these crimes can simply be categorised as acts of protest. In conjunction with an investigation of these three crimes, acts of protest such as strikes and episodes of reluctance to conform are also discussed. It argues that the motives behind various criminal activities and anti-authority behaviour were varied and complex. Arson and animal maiming were rarely co-ordinated, mostly they were individual attacks. However, on a few occasions both arson and animal maiming were directed against certain people. In the instances of poaching, there were more proven cases of gang participation than in either arson or animal maiming, with groups of men raiding game preserves. However, the great majority of raids were individual undertakings. What is more, poaching was carried out on a greater scale throughout the county than either arson or animal maiming. This thesis seeks to put these activities into the context of economic and social change in Derbyshire between 1830 and 1850. It maintains that there was a breaking down of the old social order.

  • The Home Office and Public Disturbance, C.1800-1832
    The Home Office and Public Disturbance, c.1800-1832 Nathan Ashley Bend Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD. May 2018 ii Abstract This thesis examines the role of the Home Office in the machinery of order from c.1800-1832. It combines institutional enquiry with the study of popular protest by examining protest from the viewpoint of the Home Office. It looks at how the growth of the Home Office was stagnated due to efforts to economise, and how it transformed its systems to make them more efficient in response to peaks of administrative work caused by popular tumult. The different roles that each person performed in the Home Office is outlined, and by doing so the pivotal role of the permanent under- secretary of state, who remains underrepresented in histories of protest, is exposed. It also looks at what powers the home secretary had at his disposal, and how they were used to repress food riots, the Luddite disturbances, the movement for parliamentary reform, the Swing riots, political agitation leading to the Great Reform Act, and trade unions. It compares the different approaches of home secretaries and argues that although the use of powers was generally guided by established precedent, others such as domestic espionage were more divisive, and were influenced by the personality and experience of the home secretary. The thesis also examines the relationships between the Home Office hierarchy and government departments with authorities in the provinces. This thesis brings together all the available records which relate to the Home Office as an institution and those which relate to public disturbance.

  • The Pentrich Rebellion – a Nottingham Affair?
    1 The Pentrich Rebellion – A Nottingham Affair? Richard A. Gaunt Department of History, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK Department of History, School of Humanities, University Park, Nottingham, NG7 2RD [email protected] Richard A. Gaunt is Associate Professor in Modern British History at the University of Nottingham. 2 The Pentrich Rebellion – A Nottingham Affair? This article re-considers Nottingham’s role in the events immediately preceding the Pentrich Rebellion of 9-10 June 1817, as well as its reaction on the night of the Rebellion and during its aftermath. It does so in light of two continuing areas of historiographical debate: Nottingham’s status as a radical, potentially revolutionary, town, and the Rebellion’s links to Luddism. Nottingham loomed large in the planning and course of the Rebellion; it was heavily influenced by the work of a secret committee centred on Nottingham, the North Midlands Committee, which provided essential points of contact with the villages at the heart of the Rebellion. It was also a Rebellion led by a Nottingham man, Jeremiah Brandreth, ‘the Nottingham Captain’. However, the effective role played by Nottingham Corporation, in treading the fine line between revolution and reaction, the inability of the radicals to persuade would-be rebels that they had an effective plan, and the ability of the local magistrates and the Home Office to gather intelligence about the Rebellion, all worked against it. The chances of a successful reception in Nottingham were always much lower than the Rebels anticipated. Keywords: Nottingham: Jeremiah Brandreth: Luddism: Duke of Newcastle: Oliver the Spy Late in the evening of Monday 9 June 1817, some 50-60 men set out from the villages of Pentrich and South Wingfield in Derbyshire on a fourteen-mile march towards Nottingham.
