These areas are created by combining a number of Output Areas (created for the 2001 Census). LSOAs are areas of broadly consistent population size across the coun- try - approximately 1,500 people. They are often referred to in the text as LSOAs. If a LSOA is described as experiencing moderate levels of deprivation, this means that it is in the bottom 20% of LSOAs in Leicestershire. Where a LSOA is described as experiencing significant deprivation, it is in the bottom 10% in Leicestershire. 8 Places in Leicestershire September 2007 Town and Village Centres Survey - This work was carried out by Social Capital Survey – The Social Capital Survey (2006) targeted 20 BMG Research on behalf of Leicestershire County Council and Leicester Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs) across the County.

  • Tilton on the Hill Settlement Profile Introduction
    Tilton on the Hill Settlement Profile Introduction General Location: Tilton on the Hill (hereby referred to as Tilton), lies on the B6047 that connects Market Harborough (14 miles away) to Melton Mowbray (11 miles away). The village is in the north-east of Harborough District, sitting only 2 miles north of the A47. Tilton parish is one of the largest in the District and embraces numerous past and current settlements such as Halstead, Whatborough and Marefield. The settlement neighbours Skeffington to the south, Billesdon, Cold Newton and Lowesby to the west, Marefield and Owsten and Newbold to the north, with Loddington, Launde and Withcote lying to the east. Beyond its Harborough District neighbours, the parish is in close proximity to Melton Borough and Rutland County. The village centre is a conservation area (with the church, pub and Main Street constituting its centre) and the parish contains 5 scheduled ancient monuments. Such a rich history can be explained by Tilton’s location, at the crossroads of two ancient, pre-Roman pathways that date back to the Bronze Age. Furthermore, the village was recognised not only as ‘The Best Village in Leicestershire’ in the Calor Village of the Year Awards 2009, but also as the ‘Sustainability Village of the Year’ for the Midlands in the same year. An achievement that can be considered the fruits of ‘Tilton Green’s’ labour – a community centred on improving Tilton’s environmental record (discussed in Tilton Parish Council section). Lastly, Tilton is among one of the highest places in east Leicestershire, standing at 219 metres above sea level near the peak of the High Leicestershire area.

  • Leicestershire Sustainable Community Strategy
    LEICESTERSHIRE SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY STRATEGY FINAL DRAFT MARCH 2008 1 Introduction I am pleased to present our Sustainable Community Strategy to you on behalf of Leicestershire Together, the Local Strategic Partnership for Leicestershire. Leicestershire Together includes all of the organisations and partnerships that deliver public services in Leicestershire, and we seek to improve the quality of life and of public services in the County. This draft Sustainable Community Strategy proposes priorities for improvement in Leicestershire over the next 5 years. These are largely based upon two draft evidence base reports ‘This is Leicestershire’ and ‘Places in Leicestershire’. The structure of the new Sustainable Community Strategy is quite different to that of the previous Community Strategy in that it focuses on what we are going to do rather than how we are going to do it. Our second Local Area Agreement (LAA2) is the key delivery framework for the strategy (the ‘how’ bit) – and more details on the LAA can be found later in this document. The challenge that faces us now is to deliver the ambitions outlined in this Strategy, making a real and measurable difference to the lives of Leicestershire people. David Parsons Chair, Leicestershire Together Contact details: Telephone: 0116 305 6977/8137 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.leicestershiretogether.org Write to us: Policy Team, Chief Executives Department, Leicestershire County Council, County Hall, Glenfield, Leicestershire LE3 8RA 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Leicestershire Together Leicestershire Together is the Local Strategic Partnership for Leicestershire and includes all of the organisations and partnerships that deliver public services in the County. Our aim is to improve the quality of life for the people of Leicestershire and make Leicestershire the best possible place to live and work for everyone.

  • THE LOST CHAPEL of ST MORRELL, HALLATON Vicki Score and John Morison
    THE LOST CHAPEL OF ST MORRELL, HALLATON Vicki Score and John Morison Every Easter Monday the small village of Hallaton in East Leicestershire is host to a strange rural custom – the ‘Hare Pie Scramble and Bottle Kicking’. This is a battle between Hallaton and the neighbouring village of Medbourne. The tradition is ancient, dating back to at least the seventeenth century. Recent research has revealed that Hare Pie Bank – the hill above the village on which the bottle kicking battle starts – has a much older history. Documentary research and excavations by the Hallaton Field Work Group have uncovered evidence that not only was the hilltop used by the Romans, but also a medieval chapel and burial ground, dedicated to St Morrell, once stood on the bank overlooking the village. ST MORRELL, HALLATON’S LOST SAINT John Morison An article written in 1931 on Leicestershire’s wells and springs mentions a well in the parish of Hallaton (Richardson 1931, 46). Further research among other documentary sources revealed references to both the well and St Morrell in the seventeenth-century Glebe Terriers (Morison 2000, 199). St Morrell probably represents St Maurilius of Angers, France, who was born in AD 363, the son of the Roman senator of Alpine Gaul. Maurilius went into the church, studied at Milan and Tours under St Martin, became a Benedictine monk and for many years lived as a hermit at Challonne sur Loire. Later, in Anjou on the Loire, he was ordained as the fourth bishop of Angers. Legends tell that at some time during his 30 years as bishop he visited England, where he worked as a gardener for an English noble.
