  • Archaeology in Leicestershire and Rutland 1993
    Archaeology in Leicestershire and Rutland 1993 EXCAVATIONS: INTERIM REPORTS The medieval Trent bridges at Lynden Cooper and Susan Ripper Hemington Fields, Castle Donington (SK 459 302) Since the excavation of the Norman mill dam in 1985 by the Leicestershire Archaeological Unit, continued surveillance of the quarry has been undertaken by Dr. C.R. Salisbury (illus.l; see below p.179) . In August 1993 the Leicestershire Archaeological Unit was informed of two substantial timber and stone structures, the pier bases for a bridge. These were revealed during overburden stripping prior to gravel extraction. Subsequent excavation revealed two further pier bases for the bridge, provisionally dated to the mid 13th century. As excavations were being completed on this structure yet more massive timbers were uncovered at the quarry face, some 50m to the north-east. A second programme of excavation was therefore undertaken which revealed an even earlier bridge, of 11 th/12th century date. A third bridge structure was also found, located between the latter bridges, but had to be recorded under watching brief conditions. This structure has a provisional early 13th century date. After three months of excavation and two months of watching brief it is now possible to give some indication of the findings (illus. 2). The 11th/12th century bridge (illus. 2-5) The earliest bridge identified, incorporated the remains of two partially collapsed pier bases, a double row of posts (which may represent a second phase of bridge) and a collapsed trestle structure. The north-western extent of the bridge was quarried away during gravel extraction in 1991, although four upright posts were recorded which undoubtedly represent the continuation of the double row of posts (see below p.160).

  • 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.

  • 10–14 Churchgate: Hallaton's Lost Manor House?
    12 10–14 Churchgate: Hallaton’s Lost Manor House? Nick Hill This building, a high quality timber-framed structure dating to the late fifteenth century, has been the subject of a recent programme of detailed recording and analysis, accompanied by dendrochronology. It is located on a prominent site, just opposite the church, at the centre of the village of Hallaton in south-east Leicestershire (OS ref: SP787966). The building, of six bays, had timber-framed walls with heavy close-studding throughout. Three bays originally formed an open hall, with a high arch-braced roof truss of an unusual ‘stub tie beam’ form, a rare Midlands type associated with high status houses. Although this was an open hall, the absence of smoke blackening indicates that there must have been a chimneystack from the beginning rather than an open hearth, an unusually early feature for the late fifteenth century. The whole timber-framed structure is of sophisticated, high class construction, and contrasts strongly with other houses of the period in the village, which are cruck-built. It is suggested that, though subsequently reduced in status and subdivided into four cottages, it was once one of the two main manor houses of Hallaton. The location of this second manor house has been lost since it was merged with the other main manor in the early seventeenth century. Introduction The pair of cottages, now known as 10/12 and 14 Churchgate, stands on a corner site, at the junction of Churchgate with Hunts Lane, immediately to the north-east of Hallaton church. Externally, the building has few features of interest, with cement-rendered walls under a thatched roof (illus.

October Issue 157 HALLATON PARISH COUNCIL Hare Pie Newsletter, October Councillor Profile I have lived in Hallaton for 16 years and my husband has lived here on and off for most of his life with our three sons all being born here. All of our boys attended Hallaton Primary School where I enjoyed six years working as a school governor. I have also spent two years as a member of the Parochial Church Council. I am currently a trustee for the Church Restoration Trust and also worked with the previous Parish Council to secure the village’s defibrillator at the The Fox for which which I still help manage. The first months as a Parish Councillor have been a steep learning curve and I know we still have a way to go. I have been working on the HPC website to ensure that all the documentation is updated monthly and all of the Neighbourhood Plan information is available for everyone to see. I am really enjoying being part of a great team working hard to take Hallaton forward whilst maintaining and respecting its wonderful history and heritage. Miranda Roberts Boundaries and Budgets Please can we ask all villagers to check their boundaries as we have received some complaints about overgrown hedges, tree branches, ivy etc growing over footpaths and roads making it difficult to pass. Hallaton Parish Council will shortly be setting its budget for the next financial year and we would like to take this opportunity to ask if there are any projects being planned for next year which may require some financial contribution from the Parish Council.

  • The Rove Beetles of Leicestershire and Rutland
    LEICESTERSHIRE ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY The Rove Beetles (Staphylinidae) of Leicestershire and Rutland Part 1: Sub-families Paederinae, Pseudopsinae and Staphylininae Derek A. Lott Creophilus maxillosus (Graham Calow) LESOPS 24 (2011) ISSN 0957 – 1019 Correspondence: 5 Welland Road, Barrow upon Soar, LE12 8NA VC55 Staphylinids Part 1 2 Introduction With over 56,000 described species in the world, the Staphylinidae are the largest family in the animal kingdom (Grebennikov & Newton, 2009). Around a quarter of the British beetles are rove beetles, so they represent an important component of biodiversity in Britain. However, because of perceived difficulties in their identification, they have not received the attention that they merit. This paper aims to play a part in redressing that imbalance by listing all reliable records from Leicestershire and Rutland for the different species and analysing which species have declined locally over 100 years of recording rove beetles and which have prospered. The subfamilies treated in this first part include the largest and most conspicuous species in the family. The geographical area covered is the vice county of Leicestershire and Rutland (VC55). Some records from adjacent banks of the River Soar that technically lie in Nottinghamshire are also included. These records can be distinguished by the use of Nottinghamshire parish names. Identification Staphylinidae can be easily recognised among beetles in the field by their short wing cases that leave five or six segments of the abdomen exposed and flexible. In fact they look more like earwigs than other beetles. For identification to species, all the members of the subfamilies in this part will be covered by the forthcoming Royal Entomological Society handbook to Staphylinidae parts 6 and 7 due for publication in 2011.

  • Heritage 217 Q1 2015
    No. 217 1 January - 31 March 2015 Editorial Panel: Helen Ikin, Steve Woodward, Jim Graham. Hon. Sec. Sue Graham, 5 Lychgate Close, Cropston, Leicester. LE7 7HU. Tel: 0116-2366474 A View From The Armchair To live and grow up in a house with a lovely garden is a real privilege. For a naturalist it can provide hours of fun and a realisation that even in an area that we consider familiar there is still much to learn. My father built the house in Quorn in Leicestershire in the early 1950s after demolishing three small cottages that were initially on the site. My parents and sister moved into the house on its completion in 1955. I was born in the house a year later. My father was, and still is, a keen naturalist and during my childhood he held a ringing licence and ringed birds in our garden. Birds have now been ringed in the garden for 60 years and this has provided us with a wealth of information. The garden which is some 80 feet long and 40 feet wide, borders onto a mixed woodland called Kaye’s Plantation. I started bird ringing in 1974 and, after attaining my C-permit a short time later, started to use a mist net in the garden which added to the variety of birds ringed. Since we started we have caught some 57 species some of which have taken us by surprise including: Common Gull, Kingfisher, Lesser Spotted Woodpecker and Firecrest. The fourth Siskin I had ever caught in the garden in April 1976 IN THIS EDITION was wearing a Russian ring! It had been ringed near Liepaya in Latvia in October the previous year.
