Seller Insight When we first viewed the property, we were immediately taken by the sense of privacy, as well as the unique layout inside. It opens up to give a completely unexpected feeling of space and the high ceilings ensure that the rooms are always airy and light,” say the current owners. “We’ve lived here for nearly 8 years and have made a number of enhancements to the property, including the additions of the en suite bathrooms and downstairs cloakroom but I think the biggest change has taken place in the kitchen. It’s now ideal for a modern lifestyle and our guests tend to gravitate to this room when we are entertaining.” “The location has been perfect. Grandborough is a lovely village with a good sense of community. Everybody is so friendly, and we’ve been made to feel most welcome from the moment we moved here. The village hall is very active, and you can do as much or as little as you like. There are plenty of lovely walks and horse-riding opportunities to enjoy in the area, especially alongside the canal and nearby Draycote Water which is perfect for a scenic stroll followed by a cup of tea or coffee.” “We’ve loved landscaping the large, south facing garden and it’s ideal for relaxing and entertaining. Double doors open from the house onto the patio area which gives a sense of being in the Mediterranean with the sound of water and plants. The garden is full of interest and colour and the roses are particularly beautiful. We enjoy dining outside on a summer evening and, as the garden is fully enclosed and not overlooked, it’s always very private and quiet.” “We like to spend time in the large sitting room where we have hosted many family gatherings with ease.” “Grandborough is a lovely village in a wonderful area.” “The house and garden are perfect for entertaining. The downstairs rooms flow perfectly, and we open the double doors out to the patio to create a seamless indoors / outdoors space in the summer.” “We will miss the friendship of the entire village, but we are retiring to be next to the seaside. It will be hard to find another community and village like this.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.

  • Northamptonshire Record Office
    GB0154 DRMC Northamptonshire Record Office This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 21387 The National Archives NORTHAMPTONSHIRE RECORD OFFICE DAVENTRY METHODIST CIRCUIT INTRODUCTION Wesleyan Methodism was first introduced into the Daventry area with the formation of a society in the village of Norton, about 1788. This was shortly followed by a Daventry society, in 1797, which met in a meeting house in New Street and later built the methodist chapel in Chapel Lane, 1801. This chapel was soon closed, to be used for a school, and a new chapel, in Cow Lane, was erected in 1824. As Methodism spread throughout the locality, new chapels were erected in the villages of Braunston- 1798, West Haddon 1810 (re-erected 1847), Weedon 1811, Norton 1818, Hellidon 1820, Watford 1842, Welton 1858 and Charwelton 1887. These chapels joined the Rugby Circuit in 1806, to become the Daventry and Rugby Circuit which continued until 1860, when Rugby and some villages broke away to form a separate Rugby Circuit, the remainder forming the Daventry Circuit. This circuit consisted of chapels at Braunston, Charwelton, Daventry, Flecknoe (Warwickshire), West Haddon, Hellidon, Norton, Priors Marston (Warwickshire), Watford, Weedon, Welton and Willoughby (Warwick­ shire) . In 1931 the chapel at West Haddon was sold. This was followed by the closure of Charwelton in 1932 and later Welton 1950, Flecknoe, Hellidon and Watford 1966, Weedon 1970 and Priors Marston 1973. The four chapels still left in the Daventry Circuit amal­ gamated with the larger Rugby Circuit in 1976 to form the Daventry and Rugby Circuit.

  • The Search for the Origins and Ancestry of Francis Hall of New
    Solving The Mystery Surrounding The Origins And Ancestry Of Francis Hall Of New Haven And Stratford Connecticut By Danny Hall, MG “The Gentleman Genealogist” 369 e 900 s #171 Salt Lake City, Utah 84111 (801) 879-9859 © 2009-2011 First Edition Foreword Researching the Hall family has been a driving force in my life for the last 11+ years. I have been all over the world researching our family in England, Canada and America. To say it has been a consuming passion would be a major understatement. My parents divorced when I was about two years old, and I grew up not knowing anything about this side of my family, apart from my father’s name. I believe this need to know about the Hall's, to fill that void, has driven me harder in ways the other side of my family hasn't, as I knew that side very well. What I have found is a family to be exceedingly proud of. We have often held positions of respect and honor, positions that were earned and NOT granted. We have been Representatives, Congressmen, Governors and Presidential Candidates. We have often been “movers and shakers” in our representative communities, whether officially or unofficially, leading the charge whenever needed, rarely waiting for someone else to take the reigns. We have also held to our conscience even at our personal peril by not taking the easy road out. I found that I had many of these traits growing up, but didn't know where they came from. Now I do. This is the beauty of researching your family history, by finding out your past you find out so much more about yourself.

  • Woolscott | Rugby | Warwickshire | CV23 8AH ROBIN BARN
    Robin Barn Lodge Farm | Woolscott | Rugby | Warwickshire | CV23 8AH ROBIN BARN “Originally two separate brick barns, one dating back to 1820 and the other built in 1850, we have combined these historic buildings in a marriage of old and new” say the current owners of this gorgeous barn conversion, “in a transition from utility farm outhouses to a stunning family home. We wanted to create a home to suit our lifestyle, with a simple, classic design.” An idyllically situated barn conversion which sits within 1.2 acres of paddock and gardens. Robin Barn is tucked away off the beaten track on the outskirts of the hamlet of Woolscott just south of Dunchurch in leafy Warwickshire. The barn was converted by the present owners some 19 years ago and has been developed into a well appointed family home in a peaceful rural location. There are four double bedrooms, master with ensuite and a family bathroom, whilst on the ground floor there is a large sitting room, dining room, refitted Fraser James kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, cloakroom and snug. As expected with a rural barn conversion, there is a variety of features including exposed beams, A frames and attractive exposed brick work. Outside there is a large stable/workshop which previously has had planning permission to be converted into a one bedroom annexe and could provide excellent ancillary accommodation to the main house for a independent relative, subject to a new application being successful. There are gardens that approach approximately 0.26 of an acre and beyond the gardens is an attached 0.96 of an acre paddock providing an attractive lifestyle opportunity for a buyer, that enjoys peace and tranquillity, yet has the convenience of towns and villages within a few minutes’ drive.
