  • BRONZE AGE SETTLEMENT at RIDLINGTON, RUTLAND Matthew Beamish
    01 Ridlington - Beamish 30/9/05 3:19 pm Page 1 BRONZE AGE SETTLEMENT AT RIDLINGTON, RUTLAND Matthew Beamish with contributions from Lynden Cooper, Alan Hogg, Patrick Marsden, and Angela Monckton A post-ring roundhouse and adjacent structure were recorded by University of Leicester Archaeological Services, during archaeological recording preceding laying of the Wing to Whatborough Hill trunk main in 1996 by Anglian Water plc. The form of the roundhouse together with the radiocarbon dating of charred grains and finds of pottery and flint indicate that the remains stemmed from occupation toward the end of the second millennium B.C. The distribution of charred cereal remains within the postholes indicates that grain including barley was processed and stored on site. A pit containing a small quantity of Beaker style pottery was also recorded to the east, whilst a palaeolith was recovered from the infill of a cryogenic fissure. The remains were discovered on the northern edge of a flat plateau of Northamptonshire Sand Ironstone at between 176 and 177m ODSK832023). The plateau forms a widening of a west–east ridge, a natural route way, above northern slopes down into the Chater Valley, and abrupt escarpments above the parishes of Ayston and Belton to the south (illus. 2). Near to the site, springs issue from just below the 160m and 130m contours to the north and south east respectively and ponds exist to the east corresponding with a boulder clay cap. The area was targeted for investigation as it lay on the northern fringe of a substantial Mesolithic/Early Neolithic flint scatter (LE5661, 5662, 5663) (illus.

  • Barrowden School Was Built in 1862 by the Marquess of Exeter
    Barrowden School was built in 1862 by the Marquess of Exeter. Within a year up to 120 pupils were attending. The school was extended in 1872 with the addition of an infants room. The first report by the Head in 1872 was hardly complimentary: ‘The intelligence of the Upper classes requires much cultivation.’ In 1880 the Inspector is scathing and considers that the spelling throughout the school might be better. In 1895 Mr Brittiff Tidd and his wife Agnes were appointed as Headmaster and Mistress. Their eight years of service Barrowden School, now a private house ’greatly improved the village school, and the discipline (and) efficiency.’ Following their departure in 1903, standards declined almost overnight. However by 1905 the Inspector was able to report ‘a decided improvement in the tone, discipline and efficiency of the school.’ In 1973 the children of junior school age were moved to North Luffenham Primary School. For several years, the building continued to be run as an Infant School for three and four year olds. Grantham Journal, 9 May 1903 Bisbrooke (later Bisbrooke and Glaston) School opened in 1872 in the grounds of Bisbrooke Hall. The school could accommodate 64 seniors and 24 infants. A constant concern was over the number of pupils attending as funding was dependent on this. Frequently the attendance officer would be called in to see the parents of absent pupils. Often the reason was illness: ‘A few of the children have been away with blister pox’ (May 1892). ‘Coughing among the children is, at times, most distressing’ (Feb 1901). The School in around 1911 ‘2 or 3 cases of ringworm’ (June 1903).

In considering where new development should be located Rutland County Council has to balance the requirements for development against other needs such as sustainability and the protection of the environment. Development needs to take place in the settlements where the need to travel can be reduced through a good range of facilities and services and good accessibility by public transport This discussion paper assesses the sustainability of each village in terms of its accessibility to services from which it determines a settlement hierarchy for Rutland. The relative sustainability of settlements and the settlement hierarchy help inform strategy and policy formulation in the LDF Core Strategy by identifying the most sustainable locations for new development in Rutland. Other work being undertaken in the preparation of the Core Strategy, particularly the individual town and village appraisals (April 2009), have also been fed into the sustainability assessments of the towns and villages 2.0 POLICY CONTEXT The settlement classification for Rutland is set out in the Settlement Chapter of the adopted Rutland Local Plan (2001).
