A DIACHRONIC EXAMINATION OF THE ERECHTHEION AND ITS RECEPTION Alexandra L. Lesk, B.A., M.St. (Oxon.), M.A. Presented to McMicken College of Arts and Sciences and the Department of Classics of the University of Cincinnati in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2004 Committee: C. Brian Rose (Chair) Jack L. Davis Kathleen M. Lynch J. James Coulton Abstract iii ABSTRACT “A Diachronic Examination of the Erechtheion and Its Reception” examines the social life of the Ionic temple on the Athenian Akropolis, which was built in the late 5th century B.C. to house Athens’ most sacred cults and relics. Using a contextualized diachronic approach, this study examines both the changes to the Erechtheion between its construction and the middle of the 19th century A.D., as well as the impact the temple had on the architecture and art of these successive periods. This approach allows the evidence to shed light on new areas of interest such as the Post-Antique phases of the building, in addition to affording a better understanding of problems that have plagued the study of the Erechtheion during the past two centuries. This study begins with a re-examination of all the pertinent archaeological, epigraphical, and literary evidence, and proposes a wholly new reconstruction of how the Erechtheion worked physically and ritually in ancient times. After accounting for the immediate influence of the Erechtheion on subsequent buildings of the Ionic order, an argument for a Hellenistic rather than Augustan date for the major repairs to the temple is presented. -

Quorn Walks – No.1 Buddon Brook and Swithland Reservoir
Quorn Walks Quorn Walks – No.1 Buddon Brook and Swithland Reservoir This is one of the set of six 9 km (5.5 miles) Pubs at start and end. Cafés on route at check points 3 and 4. Terrain: Start to Checkpoint 1 - Flat paved, Checkpoint 1 to 2 – Uneven, muddy during wet weather, Checkpoint 2 to 4 - Paved hilly. Checkpoint 4 to Finish - Flat paved, Bus stops: Regularly spaced along the route from start to Checkpoint 1 (No.154) and from Check point 4 to finish (No.127). Starting at Quorn Cross, the centre and main crossroads of the village, set off along Meeting Street. Beyond the award-winning Memorial Garden and the flood barrier to the left flows Buddon Brook, whose course we will be following all the way upstream to Swithland Reservoir. The many items of interest along Meeting Street and then Chaveney Road are explained in walk 5 in this series. In this case we walk about half a mile before turning left and joining the public right of way at the footpath sign just past Elms Drive (Checkpoint 1 on the map) Soon after turning left, we pass the site of the former Chaveney’s Water Mill (also called Quorn Water Mill, now Mill Farm). From the 16th to the 19th century, when Swithland Reservoir was built, a mill race from the brook was the motive power for this corn mill; the actual site of the old millwheel is not visible from the public footpath. Just after we enter the brookside path itself, you can see the remains of an ancient moated site beyond the far bank. -

Photographic Survey of Groby Conservation Area
GROBY CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL & MANAGEMENT PLAN PHOTOGRAPHIC SURVEY OF GROBY CONSERVATION AREA November 2010 1 Markfield Road sited at the junction with Ratby Road is a pleasant stone property. Unfortunately, the two dormer windows and fixed plastic shop canopies are not traditional features within the conservation area. The chimney stacks and pots are imposing features in this area of the conservation area. The terrace of four dwellings 3 – 9 Markfield Road are stone properties with slate roofs and dominant chimney stacks. Unfortunately, the gable end to no. 9 has been rendered. - 2 - 11 Markfield Road is a large rendered dwelling, painted white, with a stone plinth, slate roof and stone boundary walls. The property still has chimney stacks and pots and a front bay window has been added. 13 Markfield Road is a large imposing dwelling with two front bay windows and a fine privet hedge. The property is rendered, painted white with a slate roof and interesting diaper brickwork. - 3 - This charming thatched cottage, 15 Markfield Road, has one half of its front elevation built in stone and the other rendered. This bungalow is one of three modern dwellings that run up Markfield Road numbering 17 – 21. Unfortunately, these dwellings do not respect the traditional character of the conservation area by way of their design or use of modern materials. - 4 - The brick garage fronting 19 Markfield Road does not respect traditional character of the conservation area in its form or siting. The modern bungalow, 21 Markfield Road, does not reflect the character of the conservation area. - 5 - View looking westwards along Markfield Road showing a traditional stone wall running up the carriageway and planting on the left where a mineral railway line once crossed under the road. -

Archaeology of Barrow Upon Soar the Archaeology of Barrow Upon Soar
TheArchaeology of Barrow upon Soar The Archaeology of Barrow upon Soar Barrow is renowned for its marine fossils, plesiosaurs and ichthyosaurs. These date to the Jurassic period, 150-200 million years ago, long before man existed. The fi rst evidence for man in and around Barrow is from the Palaeolithic period (Old Stone Age) which started 800,000 years ago. Archaeology is defi ned in the dictionary as “the study of man’s past by scientifi c analysis of the material remains of his cultures” whilst history is “the discipline of recording and interpreting past events”, implying the use of documentary evidence. So what archaeological evidence is there? Evidence of the past comes in many forms:- • Stones, mostly fl int used as tools • Pottery • Metalwork & coins • Wooden items • Leather, furs and skins • Earthworks and buildings There are also hints in the landscape and vegetation that can suggest buried features such as pits, ditches and buried stonework from walls or foundations. To protect the remaining archaeology from damage or abuse some of the locations in this document are kept deliberately vague. If you want to know more please ask. Prehistory Prehistory covers most of our past from 800,000 in the Palaeolithic to 2000 years ago at the end of the Iron Age. Few items remain as buildings and many tools were made from wood or leather/skins which have not survived. Pottery is fi rst seen in Britain from the Neolithic (New Stone Age) which starts about 6000 years ago. However, in Barrow, pottery only survives from the Bronze Age. -
