Geographical, Archaeological and Historical Context GEOGRAPHICAL, ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL CONTEXT Post-Medieval Period The shape of the village today derives from it’s agricultural and political past having evolved from the pattern and nature of land ownership; whilst four manors are mentioned in 1086, these are hard to trace in later years. The largest manorial jurisdiction was already divided by the 14th century by inheritance (later Scrope and Magdalen College); another was sold to the notorious Hacker family in 1591. Although some other freeholds are recorded in the 16th century and later, the other two manors seem to have lost their status and may always have been very small. This multiplicity of manor and free-holding has resulted in a number of large houses and their estates determining the layout of the village. Five large houses known between the 16th and 19th centuries represent later political and family changes. The Old Hall was the home and manor of the Hacker family. The manor site belonging to Magdalen College on College Street was already out of use by 1530; Burneham House, as the main tenanted farm of the estate, was a replacement for it and had been erected by 1548 on the adjacent site. The deserted manor site may have been the original pre-14th century manorial site before this manor was split. Both halves were managed by absentee landlords, the farm on the site of the later East Bridgford Hall holding the same status for the Scrope estate as Burneham House did for the Magdalen estate. The other two large houses, The Manor and Bridgford Hill date from the late 18th century, the first on land purchased out of the Scrope estate and the second built by the Rev Thomas Beaumont for himself when he let the existing Rectory out as a school. The development of the village owes much to the management of its agricultural estates, both jointly as a community and separately as large estates. The land was worked from the village, with large tenanted farms largely along College Street (also known as Farmers Street) and those working the land holding many of the smaller cottages end on to the road along Kneeton Road (also known as Cottagers Street). These divisions were not exclusive, there were cottagers elsewhere in the village and there were large houses on Kneeton Road (for instance the Hacker’s manor of the Old Hall), but the use of the streets was in the main different, and this is still reflected in the current plot shapes and sizes. No archaeological investigation of any of these older sites has taken place. Further discussion on the village landscape and buildings follows in later sections. Today the parish lies at the north eastern end of the Nottingham Green Belt that stretches on both sides of the river Trent; this has ensured that the village has developed mainly within its old boundaries and has remained clearly separated from surrounding settlements by fields. Whilst East Bridgford is relatively large compared to other villages nearby, of neighbouring settle- ments Bingham is the most significant. It has maintained its medieval market and was developed considerably in the 19th century by the Nottingham to Grantham rail line. At present Bingham is in the A52 development corridor. As a result it has been the focus for many services, banks, estate agents, retail outlets and industrial estates, it is also the location of the local state secondary school which serves East Bridgford.

It is in essence quite a hidden village; approaching views show a contained settlement defined by trees with the majority of post-war development within the earlier boundaries. From the west it lies beyond the highly visible river cliffs covered and topped with woodland that follow the river towards Radcliffe and Kneeton. Approaching from the north and east, the village itself can only be located as an area of trees until almost into the village, only the windmill and adjacent group of houses on the road to Kneeton can be seen as a landmark, but they appear as an isolated hamlet, with little hint of the larger village nearby. Approaching from the south, the site of the village is marked by the prominent windmill at the end of Millgate, and even here most of the rest of the village buildings are well screened by mature trees maintaining their privacy. Hedgerows grow along all approach roads with substantial grouping of mature indigenous trees, giving the impression that the countryside penetrates into the village, bringing natural features into the heart of the community and also providing a screen from outside. There are no harsh edges to development.

  • CLUBS, SOCIETIES and Other GROUPS
    CLUBS, SOCIETIES and other GROUPS. It is probably the sign of a vibrant and healthy community that there are people willing to voluntarily give their time and energy to the organisation and running of Clubs, Societies and other Groups for the benefit of others. If this is a valid measure of a lively community then East Bridgford has certainly qualified throughout the century. At the end of the century we can identify at least thirty voluntary organisations operating in the village. In addition there have been other organisations that have existed for varying pe­ riods during the century. Times and interests change and organisations come and go. For example the Pig Club, the Poultry Club and the Patriotic Rabbit Club would today probably have problems sustaining viable membership numbers given the paucity of Pig, Poultry and Rabbit keepers now living in the village. It is also important to recognise that in addition to the more formally organised clubs and societies the village has often had 'ad hoc' teams playing darts, skittles, tug-of-war, table tennis, whist, cribbage and dominoes. The details of the various organisations that follow have, in the main, been provided by members of those organisations. We are indebted to them for the work they have undertaken to put down on paper the story of their Club, Society or other Group. We should also like to record, on behalf of the village, our appreciation and thanks to all the officers of all these or­ ganisations, many of whom serve their organisation for year after year, for all they have con­ tributed to making living in East Bridgford such an enjoyable and rewarding experience.

  • BUSINESS and OCCUPATION During the Twentieth Century
    BUSINESS and OCCUPATION During the twentieth century. East Bridgford has changed from a largely self-sufficient agri­ cultural village to a commuter village. Whereas villagers once worked and bought virtually all of their goods within the village, the opposite is now true. This chapter looks at how business and occupations have changed during the course of the century in East Bridgford. East Bridgford in 1901 At the beginning of the century. East Bridgford was in decline. Its four brickyards and mak­ ings businesses had closed. Consequently, the population had steadily decreased from a peak of 1155 in 1851 to 756 by 1901. Arthur Du Boulay-Hill' quotes an account from two elderly parishioners, Samuel Curtis and John Dent at the turn of the century, referring to more prosperous times in 1837... " Well Bridgford has gone down since them days! Why I remember back in the year the Queen was crowned what a lot of work there was which has all gone now. First the malting; though at that time men were mostly employed by the week from outside. There were four at the old malt-house by the river, one at Poole's, one at Matt. Millingtons, that's six maltsters. 'Then the four Brickyards, Potteries, Herod's yard, Doncaster's in Brickyard Lane, and the Foss Yard, employed nine men and perhaps twelve lads. 'Then the Boats; there were four boats, belonging to W Has kinson*, Mr. Millington, F. Poole, and J. Holloway, three men to each boat; and later on three large gravel boats with five men to each, owned by R.

  • Village Structure and Buildings
    VILLAGE STRUCTURE AND BUILDINGS 1. Overview The Parish of East Bridgford is rectangular in shape, approximately 2 miles by 1 Vi miles (an area of 1950 acres), sited on a ridge of hills, which rise steeply to an elevation of over 100 feet above the River Trent. From early times to the present day, the river crossing has pro­ vided the only "paved" crossing point between the two major towns of Nottingham and Newark. The nucleus of the village has developed around the medieval square of the ancient archery butts (hence Butt Close, still the village recreation area), which provides coherence to the roads, footpaths and buildings, which have evolved over the centuries. A comparison of the 1612/1614 Magdalen College maps with the Ordnance Survey map of 1950 indicates virtually no change in the road layout of East Bridgford. All buildings con­ structed during this three century period were related to this road structure and any popula­ tion growth was achieved by rebuilding on existing foundations or by 'in-fill' between exist­ ing properties. The 1801 Enclosure Award, apart from eliminating strip farming cultivation, did result in five additional 'Bridle roads' outside the village nucleus: • Fossefield Road (now Occupation Lane), from Kneeton Road to the Newark turnpike; • Hoveringham Ferry Road (now Old Hill Lane), from Kneeton Road to the ferry, • Mill Close Road (now Closes Side Lane), from Straws Lane to the Newark turnpike. • Pinfold Lane (now Lammas Lane), from College Street to Kneeton Road. • Burrows Road, (the old Roman Streete Way), from Kirk Hill to Margidunum. The Enclosure Award also established some 'Public footways' which became important means of access and communication for future generations of village residents:- • to Bingham from Springdale Lane.
