UCRG Community & Parish of UC Newsletter July & August 2019 4 Netherton News Update A great deal has happened since the Netherton and Biddlestone Parish Council called an Open Meeting last May 2018, when Peter Stott agreed that despite the school closure the school field should continue as a community area if possible. As you know the school has been on the market for a little while. We have no idea how long it will take to sell or what may become of it. The kerb has been dropped in readiness for access from the road along the edge of the school yard to the Community Area. We are waiting for a licence to be issued before a lease can be applied for. This is proving a very slow process. We currently have access from the school gate to the Community Area and once we have the lease we will be able to get the stone wall built as the boundary.

    COCWUDU STUDIES 1: BRINKBURN AND NEWMINSTER CHARTER BOUNDARY READINGS BERNICIAN STUDIES GROUP January 2020 www.bernicianstudies.eu/?page_id=556 1 BRINKBURN AND NEWMINSTER CHARTER BOUNDARY READINGS INTRODUCTION: ORIGINS AND SCOPE OF THIS STUDY This study began as a review of some 13th-century charters of the religious houses of Brinkburn Priory and Newminster Abbey in Northumberland, initiated with the aim of elucidating boundaries of land units and reconciling them to the Present-day landscAPe. Its PrinciPal outcome is a set of mAPs here Presented in this document. The first stage of the study, with fieldwork and subsequent review, considered three charters, the (undated) foundation charter of Brinkburn Priory (Part A below), and two Newminster charters: an agreement of 1225 of grazing rights in West Ritton (B6 below); and a 1268 agreement of grazing rights on Hesleyhurst (B7 below). The analysis of the two Newminster charters threw uP some questions as to the boundary between the lands of the lordshiP of Rothbury and the Merlay barony of MorPeth and this was further Pursued in a second stage of study involving a wider range of sources. It then became APParent that this wider study offered a resolution to a question concerning the boundary of Ritton in 1113. Argument is Presented on this Point. Part A of this document deals with the Brinkburn foundation charter and Part B with the Newminster charters. The charters and other documents used here have been accessed from Printed editions of the Latin texts (see Sources p.36). The geogrAPhies of the charters have been tested by field observation, by review of historic mAPs (PrinciPally the 1st edition Ordnance Survey at 6 inches to 1 mile) and from satellite and LiDAR imagery.

Our over- riding aim is to develop and support active and effective local councils. This requires local councils to be aware of local needs and concerns, and to find a way of addressing them, whether by taking direct action themselves or by encouraging others to take the lead. Local councils have unlimited powers to raise money by precepting on the Council Tax, and this is an opportunity which can be used enthusiastically but prudently to support local initiatives and services.
