Much inclosure of Common Land, Open Fields and Moor Land (or Waste), formerly farmed collectively by the residents on behalf of the Lord of the Manor, had taken place by the 18th century, but the uplands of County Durham remained largely unenclosed. Inclosures, to consolidate land-holdings, divide the land (into Allotments) and fence it off from other usage, could be made under a Private Act of Parliament or by general agreement of the landowners concerned. In the latter case the Agreement would be Enrolled as a Decree at the Court of Chancery in Durham and/or lodged with the Clerk of the Peace, the senior government officer in the County, so may be preserved in Quarter Sessions records. In the case of Parliamentary Enclosure a Local Bill would be put before Parliament which would pass it into law as an Inclosure Act. The Acts appointed Commissioners to survey the area concerned and determine its distribution as a published Inclosure Award. The Plans and awards are probably the most useful archives of this process. Each party to an Inclosure would have copies of the Act and the Award (or an Extract from it), and many of these have survived in collections here. Most other surviving records document legal disputes arising from an inclosure award. Some Private Inclosures may have left no documentary evidence. From the 1830s various general Acts were promoted to make the process less complicated and less expensive; these include the 1845 Act to facilitate the Inclosure and Improvement of Commons. In many such cases a Decree confirming the award was made, after the event, by the Chancery Court at Durham. For these, and for information on other inclosures in County Durham for which we hold no information, see Durham University Library Archives and Special collections (referenced as ASC below) or The National Archives (TNA). HANDLISTS:SubjectGuide01InclosureRecords.docx/14-Jul-20/1:54 PM page 1 As well as containing a wealth of historical detail, about both people and places, inclosure records are useful today as legal documents, for instance in establishing rights of way. See also library pamphlet D2/9 “A hand list of English Enclosure Acts and Awards” and http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/enclosure-awards Organisation of List This guide lists Inclosures in County Durham alphabetically by the name of the Act, which is usually the name of the parish or township concerned. Two dates are normally given below the name: the first of these is the date of the Act (an asterisk indicates an inclosure made under a general Act and the date is that of the order thereunder); the second the date of the award. A dash in place of the first date indicates an inclosure arranged by private agreement of the landowners. For each Inclosure event a list is given of material held at DCRO, whether a Bill, Act, Enrolment, Award, Plan, or other papers. This list may not be comprehensive. To search for further inclosure records in our online catalogue database (www.durhamrecordoffice.org.uk/article/10527/Search-the-Catalogue) please use the “all of these words” box and search for each of the words “inclose”, “incloses” “inclosure”, “inclosures” and “inclosing” together with the name of the place or its township or parish. We also hold a set of Local Acts from 1798 onwards which should include all Inclosure Acts after that year.

  • County Durham Landscape Character Assessment: Classification
    LANDSCAPE CHARACTER THE LANDSCAPE CLASSIFICATION The Landscape Classification The County Durham Landscape Character Assessment identifies landscape types and character areas at three different levels - the regional, the sub-regional and the local. Regional County Character Areas Sub-regional Broad Landscape Types Broad Character Areas See Table 1 Local Local Landscape Types See Table 2 Local Sub-types County Character Areas. County Character Areas are based on Natural England’s Countryside Character Areas. There are 6 Countryside Character Areas in County Durham, all of which extend beyond its administrative boundaries. County Character Areas are effectively those parts of Countryside Character Areas lying within the County. The boundaries of County Character Areas are more precisely drawn than those of Countryside Character Areas as they are based on a more detailed level of assessment. In reality the boundaries between these broad landscape zones are often gradual and progressive and difficult to identify precisely on the ground. The character of County Character Areas may differ in some ways from that of the larger Countryside Character Areas to which they belong. The descriptions of County Character Areas given here in the Landscape Assessment may therefore be slightly different to the descriptions given in other publications for Countryside Character Areas. Broad Landscape Types and Character Areas Broad Landscape Types are landscapes with similar patterns of geology, soils, vegetation, land use, settlement and field patterns identified at a broad sub-regional level. As with County Character Areas, the boundaries between Broad Landscape Types are not always precise, as the change between one landscape and another can be gradual and progressive.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOUNDARY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND CHAIRMAN Mr G J Ellerton CMC MBE DEPUTY CHAIRMAN Mr J G Powell FRIGS FSVA MEMBERS Lady Ackner Mr T Brockbank DL Professor G E Cherry Mi- K J L Newell Mr B Scholes OBE THE RT. HON. PATRICK JENKIN MP SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT BACKGROUND 1. In a letter dated 20 March 198! the Chester-le-Street District Council invited us to make proposals for certain changes to the boundary of their district with the district of the City of Durham. The suggestion for changes had arisen during the course of the review by the District Council of the parish pattern in their area and involved the parishes of Plawsworth and Sacriston. Durham City Council had not at that stage completed their own parish review, but it was clear that the changes concerned were not supported by them or by the councils of the three parishes in their district which would be involved - Framwellgate Moor, Kimblesworth and Witton Gilbert. We decided to defer action on the matter until we had received Durham City Council's parish review report. ?., In submitting their report in August 1982 Durham City Council opposed all the district boundary changes suggested by Chester-le-Street District Council; Kimblesworth Parish Council wrote to us separately to emphasise their opposition to the ones affecting then. The City Council sent us a copy of a letter from the Durham County Council, however, which said, in relation to the possibility of changes in th^ Kimblesworth Parish boundary, that the Council considered that the villages of Kimblesworth and Nettlesworth (the latter currently in Plawsworth Parish, Chester-le-Street) should be treated as one settlement and that future development should be in relation to a single local plan.

  • The North Pennines
    LANDSCAPE CHARACTER THE NORTH PENNINES The North Pennines The North Pennines The North Pennines Countryside Character Area County Boundary Key characteristics • An upland landscape of high moorland ridges and plateaux divided by broad pastoral dales. • Alternating strata of Carboniferous limestones, sandstones and shales give the topography a stepped, horizontal grain. • Millstone Grits cap the higher fells and form distinctive flat-topped summits. Hard igneous dolerites of the Great Whin Sill form dramatic outcrops and waterfalls. • Broad ridges of heather moorland and acidic grassland and higher summits and plateaux of blanket bog are grazed by hardy upland sheep. • Pastures and hay meadows in the dales are bounded by dry stone walls, which give way to hedgerows in the lower dale. • Tree cover is sparse in the upper and middle dale. Hedgerow and field trees and tree-lined watercourses are common in the lower dale. • Woodland cover is low. Upland ash and oak-birch woods are found in river gorges and dale side gills, and larger conifer plantations in the moorland fringes. • The settled dales contain small villages and scattered farms. Buildings have a strong vernacular character and are built of local stone with roofs of stone flag or slate. • The landscape is scarred in places by mineral workings with many active and abandoned limestone and whinstone quarries and the relics of widespread lead workings. • An open landscape, broad in scale, with panoramic views from higher ground to distant ridges and summits. • The landscape of the moors is remote, natural and elemental with few man made features and a near wilderness quality in places.

  • 'Common Rights' - What Are They?
    'Common Rights' - What are they? An investigation into rights of passage and rights of land use (or rights of common) Alan Shelley PG Dissertation in Landscape Architecture Cheltenham & Gloucester College of Higher Education April2000 Abstract There is a level of confusion relating to the expression 'common' when describing 'common rights'. What is 'common'? Common is a word which describes sharing or 'that affecting all alike'. Our 'common humanity' may be a term used to describe people in general. When we refer to something 'common' we are often saying, or implying, it is 'ordinary' or as normal. Mankind, in its earliest civilisation formed societies, usually of a family tribe, that expanded. Society is principled on community. What are 'rights'? Rights are generally agreed practices. Most often they are considered ethically, to be moral, just, correct and true. They may even be perceived, in some cases, to include duty. The evolution of mankind and society has its origins in the land. Generally speaking common rights have come from land-lore (the use of land). Conflicts have evolved between customs and the statutory rights of common people (the people of the commons). This has been influenced by Church (Canonical) law, from Roman formation, statutory enclosures of land and the corporation of local government. Privilege, has allowed 'freemen', by various customs, certain advantages over the general populace, or 'common people'. Unfortunately, the term no longer describes a relationship of such people with the land, but to their nationhood.
