Crushing the cloves with the mortar and pestle immediately invigorates the senses and evokes images of Christmas preparations. Maybe it’s the sight of the cloves I used to poke into the delicate marzipan fruits my Mum used to make. So, to the end-of- the-year double issue. Once again, we have a variety of contributions and my thanks extend to all those who take the time to make this volunteer publication a special part of community life in the villages. May I take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy Christmas and prosperous New Year! Chris Brown Parish council news New parish office By the time you read this, the parish office will be open, providing a new home for the Clerk and Premises Manager. This will be the hub of the administrative life of the parish and we hope it will encourage the local residents to drop in and discuss any needs or issues within our two villages. Access to the office is from the foyer of the village hall. Caretaker house The parish is currently getting quotes to renovate the Caretaker’s house so that it can be rented out in the future. Village hall bookings The three village halls are starting to get bookings for 2020. Our booking system now allows you to book 18 months in advance by going to our website: www.woodhouseparishcouncil.org.uk. All three venues have great amenities for meetings, parties, group gatherings, exhibitions, shows and gigs. BT phone box BT is undertaking a consultation to remove a number of public phone boxes in the borough. The phone box situated on Main Street is one of the chosen ones due to a significant decrease in use. The parish council has objected to the removal of this phone as it feels it is still essential for the welfare of the community. Roundabout December 2019 / January 2020 5 Butterfly border Our tree and heritage wardens are organising the planting of numerous plants which will be native species chosen for their value to invertebrates, especially butterflies, creating a “butterfly border”. The border will be the strip of land along the path leading from Main Street to Woodhouse Eaves playing field, adjacent to the play park. Key holders to open and close village halls The parish council is looking to recruit a team of responsible individuals to work as key holders to the three public halls. The individuals will be paid for a service to unlock and lock the buildings. If this is something you think is of interest to you, please contact me via email on the below address. Next meeting: Monday, 2nd December at 6:45pm in the village hall. All welcome. Agendas and minutes are on our website at: www.woodhouseparishcouncil.org.uk Any queries or information required, please email: [email protected] Emma Crowe, Clerk to the Parish Council Cycle path connecting local villages Woodhouse and Woodhouse Eaves Parish Council is proud to be working with the national sustainable transport charity Sustrans and Quorn parish council to provide a safe, traffic-free direct route to and from Quorn. The route is yet to be finalised, and there is still opportunity to have your say, but it is likely to follow Forest Road through Woodhouse and on to Quorn. This is considered our ‘safe route to school’ and this initial project will form part of a web of routes linking local parks and villages to Loughborough, not only for daily transport but also for family leisure, young and old. On the opposite page are two examples of what local children have told us about the concept. Chris Bennett, Parish Council News in brief Maplewell Road development appeal hearing On Tuesday, 1st October, a planning permission appeal was held in Woodhouse Eaves Village Hall. The appeal was against Charnwood Borough Council’s refusal to grant planning permission for 50 houses on two fields at the top of Maplewell Road. For the hearing to be held in the village hall was most unusual, but it had been arranged here owing to the large number of local people who had sent in comments on the application. The 6 Roundabout December 2019 / January 2020 Letter from William who is 8 years old and keen to back the scheme. Letter supporting the scheme by Ava, aged 8 years. Roundabout December 2019 / January 2020 7 choice of the village hall proved to be justified: over 100 residents and people from the local area turned out in torrential rain and perilous road conditions to be present during the proceedings. No members of the press were present. The appeal process was chaired by Planning Inspector Kevin Savage, who would make the final decision on the appeal after hearing from both parties. An agenda was distributed, which set out the main items to be covered during the hearing. Some common ground had been agreed by both sides prior to the hearing and was not on the agenda. Members of the public were individually invited to the front to make relevant contributions at intervals throughout the proceedings, and many took advantage of this opportunity. The lead for the ongoing Neighbourhood Planning process was also invited to present information to the hearing. The appellants, Cerda Planning Ltd. of Sutton Coldfield on behalf of J. K. Land Ltd., had a team of planning, heritage and other specialists, led by barrister Satnam Choongh, who sat on one side of the table. On the other side sat four representatives of the opponents of the proposed development. These were specialist planning solicitor Lizzie Marjoram, representing the parish council on a pro bono basis, plus three representatives of Charnwood Borough Council, led by Patrick Reid, Principal Planning Officer at Charnwood Borough Council, the local planning authority. The morning session began with detailed discussion of relevant planning policy documents, which was extremely lengthy and technical. This was followed by a very comprehensive discussion of the two main issues identified by the Planning Inspector, namely (1) the suitability of the location for such a development; and (2) the effect on the character and appearance of the area. In addition to representations by interested parties, there were many useful contributions from the floor by local residents and interested members of the public from nearby settlements. During the afternoon, highway safety on Maplewell Road and its impact on the conservation area was discussed at length, again with multiple and pertinent contributions from members of the public. The Inspector noted that the impact of the proposed development on the enjoyment of the conservation area was the principle area of local objection to the proposal. Concern about the effect of additional traffic from the development was led by the parish council solicitor. The borough council representatives had been advised by the Highways Officer, apparently based upon a one-off assessment in the immediate vicinity of the proposed development, that traffic from the development would not constitute a significant problem.

  • My Ancestral Lines Back to Hugh De Moreville
    Chapter 72 My Ancestral Lines Back to Hugh de Moreville [Originally completed on 22 November 2020] Introduction I have started using the Geni.com website to expand my knowledge of my family tree. A key feature of this website is its “World Family Tree”. Unlike Ancestry.com, where everyone has their own complete (or incomplete) family tree, Geni.com is having its users collaboratively build just a single family tree. On Ancestry.com, there can be one thousand or more duplicate entries for the same person – and these entries often have conflicting information. On Geni.com, there should only be one entry on the entire website for any given person. Individual users on Geni.com can add their ancestral lines until they connect with people already in the World Family Tree. And then their lines immediately become part of this enormous family tree. As of late November 2020, there are just over 150 million individuals in the World Family Tree – see: https://www.geni.com/worldfamilytree A number of my ancestral lines in the World Family Tree on Geni.com go back twenty or thirty generations into the past. This chapter is about one particular ancestral line, which goes back to Hugh de Moreville, Lord Cumberland, Constable of Scotland. Warning! This is a really long chapter and probably shouldn’t be read in one sitting. Going Back Many Generations on an Ancestral Line I am voluntarily self-quarantining (or is it self-isolating?) during the coronavirus pandemic of 2020, so I have lots of free time. A week or so ago, I went to the Geni.com website and started going back on various ancestral lines, just to see if I could find an interesting ancestor to write about.

A Brief History of the Cornish Language, its Revival and its Current Status Siarl Ferdinand, University of Wales Trinity Saint David Abstract Despite being dormant during the nineteenth century, the Cornish language has been recently recognised by the British Government as a living regional language after a long period of revival. The first part of this paper discusses the history of traditional Cornish and the reasons for its decline and dismissal. The second part offers an overview of the revival movement since its beginnings in 1904 and analyses the current situation of the language in all possible domains.

  • BRENDAN Mcmahon Tradition and Cultural Resistance in Cornwall
    Tradition and Cultural Resistance in Cornwall BRENDAN McMAHON Before the collapse of Roman rule in the fifth century, what is now Cornwall was part of the canton of Dumnonia, an administrative district which had its centre in Exeter.1 Out of the ruins of Roman Britain Dumnonia, comprising Cornwall, Devon and parts of Somerset, arose as one of several successor states resisting Saxon encroachment, though it was eventually to be absorbed by the kingdom of the West Saxons. Many of the Dumnonian people fled overseas to Brittany where their successors still speak Breton, a Celtic language similar to Cornish. The West Saxon King Ine completed the conquest of Devon in the eighth century and Exeter was taken from the Celts, though resistance continued and the English were checked at the Battle of Kehil in 721 or 722.2 The Cornish King Gereint died in battle and was commemorated by the poet Llywarch Hen.3 Later kings, usually described as “shadowy”, include Huwal, king of the west Welsh, who attended Athelstan’s great court in Exeter in 928 AD, as mentioned in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, and “Ricatus”, known only from a single inscription at Penzance, which Philip Payton describes as “a semblance, an echo, an assertion of Cornish kingly independence”.4 Though Athelstan fixed the border at the Tamar he was not able finally to incorporate Cornwall into his new English state, and the “echo” continued to sound up to the eve of the Norman conquest in the far west. Although in ancient times Cornwall had trading links with the Mediterranean, it now ceased to exist as an independent political entity, though it did retain a separate cultural identity.

  • Chisholm Batten, E, Henry VII in Somersetshire, Part II, Volume 25
    iijiirir VII in ^nmcractshiiv.* BY E. CHISHOLM BATTEN, ESQ. IHE visit of Henry the Seventh to this county was at a critical epoch in the history of his reign. The King came into Somersetshire in the autumn of 1497, after two rebellions which broke out in that year had been suppressed : the Cornish rebellion by the victory at Black heath, on the 17th June ; and the rebellion of Perkin Warbeck^s adherents by his flight from Taunton on the 21st September. The Cornish rebellion was a remarkable incident in a remark- able reign, and it can hardly be understood without looking at matters as they stood at the opening of the year. The King was then preparing to take the field against Scotland, and obtained a Parliamentary grant of two-fifteenths, each about £30,000, and a Subsidy equal in amount to them—in all, a sum of about . £ 120, 000 Henry knew that thoroughly to prepare for war is the best mode to secure peace. He had—yielding not unwillingly to the solicitations of Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain—just joined them in the great league against France. The importance of this step he had not exaggerated by his solemn reception of the hallowed Sword and Cap of Maintenance sent him in con- sequence, by Pope Alexander, on All-Saints^ Day (Ist Nov.), 1496. The statesmen of France did not neglect their traditional policy; Scotland was stirred up to attack England openly, and at the very moment that Pobert Shirborn, (whom we shall find by and by in our county,) Henryks ambassador, was agreeing to ( 1 ).

  • A Talk by Chris Dunkeley
    THE CORNISH ARE REVOLTING by Chris Dunkerley Bard D.Urr Pause ... look around room .... "Well we seem to have a peaceful enough lot here today. No need to read the Riot Act of 1715 before the pasties are served, and I feel we'll need no hanging, drawing, or quartering today!" You know however that Cornish people haven't always been quiet Methodist tee-totallers - in fact I doubt very much if they ever really were deep down. Sure the religious faith was real enough but that independent streak was just lying dormant. Even in Australia Oswald Pryor's cartoons show humour of a decidedly defiant bent. My hypothesis, however 'tongue in cheek' is that the Cornish have been, indeed so many of us in this very room, may be potentially: - to not put too fine a point on it - Revolting! To test this hypothesis I will touch lightly on several points in Cornish history. Our story begins a long way back. The Romans when extending their domain over Cornwall were sensible enough to leave the Cornish, especially the Tinners, to get on with their lives. Even incursions by Irish along the north coast, after the Romans had left due to the bad weather and visitors expected at home, were assimilated well enough so that even now Guinness has to be imported. However at this time, about 700 AD there was a new mob on the block. This lot were called Saxons or in Cornish Sawson (down the ages a.k.a "The English" or "they lot up- country"). This lot seemed to subscribe to the theory we have heard of as 'Terra Nullius' or to give it the more technical term - "What's yours is mine, .

The roots of the Duchy date back nearly a thousand years therefore an understanding of the roots of the Duchy and its evolution, focussing on the significant legal issues, over time is necessary to comprehend its present position. The thesis concludes by exploring issues surrounding the contemporary legal status of the Duchy and identifies areas in which there is a convenient ambiguity. In doing so it establishes that while the Duchy and Government describe it as a “private estate” it enjoys privileges and rights which are unique to a “private estate”. In addition it has a significant role in supporting the United Kingdom’s Head of State, the Sovereign, and the heir to the throne.
