Brixworth Bulletin BrixworthBrixworth BulletinBulletin IncludingDraug hton,Ha ngingH oughtonandLa mport IssueNo.6,September2005 BRIXWORTH ALL SAINTS’ CHURCH PORCH DEBATE EXTERIOR OR INTERIOR? W. H. Bartlett, Architect and Artist made this etching of All Saint’s Church Brixworth in 1825, just before the Reverend Charles F. Watkins began his restoration of the church, which was originally built in 680 AD, from the dilapidated 13th century rectangular chancel into its present form of a polygonal apse surrounded by a ring crypt which is believed to be close to the original design. It can be seen from the etching that there was a substantial outer porch to the entrance on the south side of the church. The Rev. C.F. Watkins had this porch removed, but it is not known why it was removed as there is no mention of the demolition in his book, published in 1867, which chronicles the restoration work. However Dr David Parsons, formerly of Leicester University is reasonably certain that the porch was added in the late 12th century and demolished in the early 1860’s. The present incumbent, the Reverend A.J. Watkins together with the P.C.C. are considering the possibility of building a glass porch within the church and removing the felt covered inner doors which hinder easy access to the church. Plans have been drawn up for a glass porch with a domed roof and the proposed layout is shown below. This porch is relatively small in order to avoid being too intrusive to the interior of the church. However there is a body of opinion which favours an external porch, but it is recognised that the planning approval process would be long and daunting, involving English Heritage, the Diocese, and Daventry District Council. An external porch could be more spacious and could be attractively designed in keeping with the existing architecture. As the church is part of our local heritage, anyone who has a view on this subject is entitled to express it to the P.C.C. The Bulletin would be interested to receive any comments regarding the issues raised in the Vicar’s letter which can be found on page 13. 1 KPD AIRPOR T SPECIALISTS MYLES and SIMS DAVENTRYR KPD EXECUTIVE C OUNTRY TR AVEL PARK FO SIMPLY THE BEST W AY TO Architects Heathrow RLY Micro W ind Turbine Demonstration Gatwick IS EA TAX 2005 Contact us for all Stansted BOOK YS IN Luton LIDA your building design needs.

ENVIRONMENT AGENCY Accession No .A .(vjl ...... 099656 UPPER NENE CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN FOREWORD Established in 1989 the National Rivers Authority has as it’s role the "Guardians of the Water Environment". As such it is committed to protecting and improving the water environment in its broadest sense. Establishing a sound planning base for the development of river catchments is essential to our future management. Catchment Management Plans are a vehicle to achieve improvements in the water environment. By using public consultation they will allow input from others and provide commitment from all parties to achieving action on important issues. Key issues in this plan are considered to be:- 1. The scale of past and future development within the catchment is bringing intense pressure to bear on all aspects of the water environment, there is consequently a need:- To incorporate pollution prevention measures into new development to protect water quality. To control and effectively regulate landfill activity within the catchment. To incorporate flood defence and environmental considerations into new development. To assess the environmental impact closed landfill sites are having upon water quality. 2. The quality of rivers within the catchment many of which are eutrophic.
