  • Executive Summary and Overview by the Chief Executive
    Appendix 1: Proposed Vivacity Business Plan 24.2.1 Executive Summary and Overview By The Chief Executive The next five years is a story with two themes. The first is one of business as usual. Given the nature of our work this is not surprising. The day to day work of Vivacity remains unchanged- lending almost 1 million items through our libraries; teaching 1500 children a week to swim; providing 1million people the opportunity to take part in sport; approaching 100,000 people learning about their local heritage and 55,000 theatre tickets sold each year. The second theme is one of change brought about by opportunities. Most significantly: Development of Hampton Leisure Facilities - It is probable that the management of two new leisure facilities will be offered to Vivacity in the summer of 2013. This will generate fantastic new opportunities for people to take part and increase our turnover dramatically and hence make a significant contribution to our central support costs. This must be balanced by the knowledge that it will bring tangible risks- the business model is primarily based on the selling of gym memberships in other words a non- fixed income. It is crucial that we approach the opportunity presented by these facilities with business focus rather than being attracted by the opportunity of growth for its own sake. If these projects move forward they will become the main focus of effort in 2013 and 2014. Must Farm Finds - The long term future for the Must Farm find is far from clear. What is known is that Flag Fen offers up a medium and perhaps longer term opportunity for the preservation and presentation of these fantastic artefacts.

  • Peterboroughcaav2 New2017.Indd
    6.0 SUMMARY OF ISSUES 6.01 The new public realm works to Cathedral Square, St John’s Square, Cowgate, Long Causeway and Bridge Street and architectural lighting for aesthetic effect have brought about significant enhancement, creating attractive places. Westgate Broadway and Midgate (adjacent to the Conservation Area) are programmed for improvement under the Public Realm Strategy in the next couple of years. 6.02 The pedestrianisation of the principal shopping streets within the city centre has had a major positive impact on the ability to enjoy the historic environment and spaces within these parts of the Conservation Area. Elsewhere, although it can create a lively bustle and give animation to the streets, traffic more often detracts from the character and setting of the Conservation Area. On-street car parking is visually intrusive along Cowgate and the busy bus and taxi route of Broadway and Westgate is distracting and gives rise to unattractive and cluttering guardrails and traffic signs. 6.03 Vacancy at ground floor level is not at present a concern throughout the Conservation Area, although there are a small number of vacant retail units. Vacancy appears to be a greater problem at upper floor level above ground floor retail units. This presents a threat to the long-term survival of such buildings through a lack of regular maintenance and investment. There are few long- term vacant historic buildings within the Conservation Area, with two notable exceptions being Nos. 51 and 55 Priestgate. 6.04 The impact of Bourges Boulevard is severe and has a profound detrimental impact across the periphery of the Conservation Area, with severe negative impacts on Cowgate, Priestgate and Bridge Street.

  • Nassaburgh Militia Lists 1762
    3 NASSABURGH MILITIA LISTS 1762 EDITED BY VICTOR A. HATLEY AND BRIAN G. STATHAM INTRODUCTION Series of militia lists for Northamptonshire exist for 1762, 1771, 1774, 1777, 1781 and 1786; there are also lists, some of them undated, for many parishes from the period of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars with France. The series for 1777 was reproduced by the Society in 1973, but unfortunately the lists from Nassaburgh Hundred (Soke of Peterborough) for that date are missing. The only surviving lists from Nassaburgh are those for 1762, and these are reproduced in this volume. 1 The English militia was a force raised for the defence of the realm against invasion or rebellion. It was not liable for service overseas. Under the Militia Act of 1662 all owners of property were charged with the provision of horses, arms and men, in accordance with the value of their property, but this liability was removed from the individual to the parish by the Militia Act of 1757, itself modified by a series of subsequent acts. Each county had now to contribute a quota of men for militia service, 640 in the case of Northamptonshire; elsewhere the quota ranged from 1,600 each for Devonshire and Middlesex, 1,240 for the West Riding of Yorkshire and 1,200 for Lincolnshire, down to 240 each for Monn1outh and West­ morland, and only 120 for tiny Rutland. Responsibility for raising the militia and providing it with officers lay with the lord lieutenant of each county and his deputies. Liability to serve in the militia rested on able-bodied men between the ages of 18 and 45 years.

Moreover, (Blair 2005, 152, 315-6). While the national a network of minsters, monastic or secular, and regional pictures remain incomplete,3 with neatly dovetailing parochiæ, will not alone uncertainty clings to the shape of religious reveal the ancient devotional landscape. provision before and after the Augustinian Places of religious or ritual resort came in many mission, the process of Christianisation, the guises. What became Leicestershire had a extent of Danish colonisation, the impact of richly varied religious geography as this study reforms, and the emergence of the parochial shows, but we should expect it from continental network. This ramifies back and forth with evidence. In southern Germany, for example, secular matters: cultural identity, nucleation, churches were first built at fords or crossroads, manorialisation, and here the existence of hilltops, burial barrows, or springs for baptism, Leicestershire itself.

  • Reflections on Some Major Lincolnshire Place-Names Part Two: Ness Wapentake to Yarborough
    Reflections on some major Lincolnshire place-names Part Two: Ness wapentake to Yarborough Richard Coates This is the second half of a two-part survey, the first half of which appeared in JEPNS 40 (Coates 2008b). In contrast to the study of Lincolnshire minor names in JEPNS 39 (‘Azure Mouse, [etc.]’, Coates 2007), the focus here is on major names, defined as parish and manor names, district names in towns, and those of larger entities still. Some other names which are not conventional “minor names”, for example coastal and maritime features, are also included. The names treated appear in a single alphabetical list. The preamble to the earlier article applies to this one too, and parts of it are repeated here. Contents Introduction and apparatus 57 Typography and notation 58 A note on Scandinavian 59 Abbreviations 59 The names, treated in alphabetical order 60 Notes 95 Bibliography, references 96 Element-lists: newly-identified elements and personal names 101 Index 101 Introduction and apparatus This work is a collection of sometimes extended commentaries on names in Lincolnshire treated (i) in Kenneth Cameron’s A dictionary of Lincolnshire place-names (1998), to which, throughout, plain page-numbers in parentheses refer (e.g. 39), or (ii) in the six volumes published by November 2003 of his The place-names of Lincolnshire (PN L) which form part of the Survey of English Place-Names (1923–date), or (iii) in his article, ‘The Scandinavian 57 58 JOURNAL OF THE ENGLISH PLACE-NAME SOCIETY 41 (2009) element in minor names and field-names in north-east Lincolnshire’, published in Nomina 19 (1996).

  • William Thomas Brownlow Cecil, 5Th
    113 NOTES AND NEWS I T is with great sorrow that we have to record the death at Burghley House on August 6th last of the Marquess of Exeter, K.G., who, from its foundation thirty-six years ago, was the President and staunchest friend of this Society. Rarely; indeed, if ever, in the history of Northamptonshire, has there been one who g~ve himself and his great abilities so whole­ heartedly in the course of a long life, to the service of his neighbours, or who was so widely esteemed and beloved. A short account of his .life will be found on page 117. THE RECORD SOCIETY. The Society continues to grow and we offer a cordial welcome to the fifty new subscribers who have joined our ranks since January 1st. Our total membership is now well over six hundred. The Annual Meeting was held last June by kipd permission in that very pleasant room, the Council Chamber at the County Hall, Northampton, Mr. Ewart Marlow, M.C., Chairman of the County Council, presiding. The transaction of business was followed by a general discussion on Northamptonshire Place-Names and their pronunciation. Though some were for pronouncing all the names as now spelt, regret was expresssed at the loss of ~he traditional pronunciations (chiefly through imported railway-men and school-teachers who think they know better), and a hopeful tendency to retain and even to recapture the old ways was reported. Natives of Rothwell, we were told, now say "Rowell" ·as their grandparents did, but will not allow "foreigners" to do so until they have qualified by ten years' residence in that delectable, sturdy little town.
