It is arranged on the same principle as The Complete Peerage (eight vols., 8vo., 1884-98), by the same Editor, save that the more convenient form of an alphabetical arrangement has, in this case, had to be abandoned for a chronological one; the former being practically impossible in treating of a dignity in which every holder may (and very many actually do) bear a different name from the grantee.

  • Landscape Evolution
    APPENDIX 5 APPENDIX 5: LANDSCAPE EVOLUTION This information has been taken from the Nottingham Landscape Guidelines published in 1997 undertaken by Nottinghamshire County Council. Magnesian Limestone Ridge ‘There is still much to learn about the development of the landscapes of the Magnesian Limestone Ridge . Considered to have been a remote wooded area, of late interest to settlers, it has often been considered only as part of Sherwood Forest. While this latter is indeed true, it is not the whole story which, for the want of detailed study, can only be sketched in outline and with some imprecision. Little coherent can be said about the prehistoric and Roman landscapes of the region. Evidence of some of the earlier human occupation and activity in the East Midlands, during the later Ice Ages and after, comes from Creswell Crags. The caves of the limestone gorge provided shelter for the hunter-gathers who 12,000 years ago moved through a landscape which was gradually changing from tundra to birch and pine forest and would eventually develop into mixed oak forest, with alder, oak, elm and lime. While Creswell is the best known and studied, other gorges in the Magnesian Limestone have caves which were occupied by both people and animals at these early dates, and also later. Human occupation of significance has yet to be demonstrated at Pleasley Vale, but the full potential of this gorge, which appears to be considerably filled, has not been explored. Later human activity on the Magnesian Limestone Ridge is indicated by the stone tools and fabrication debris of hunter-gatherer groups and of the first farmers and settlers of the Neolithic and the Early Bronze Age, which are found on the surfaces of ploughed fields.

  • Wallingwells Hall
    Unregistered Park & Garden: Wallingwells Hall NCC/BDC Ref: UPG52 Date(s): Reproduced from Ordnance Survey mapping with the permission 1135-1154, Early-C17, Early/Mid-C18, Late-C18, of Ordnance Survey. © Crown Copyright 2015, Bassetlaw District c1810, c1828, 1926, c1928 Council. License No. 100019517 Description & historic information: Wallingwells Hall, an early-17th century house with 18th and 19th century alterations, set within a landscaped park of various historic phases and on the site of a Benedictine Priory for nuns. The nunnery, dedicated to St Mary, was established c1135-1154 by Ralph de Chevrolcourti. The site would have had a church, cloisters and associated structures, together with a fishpond (the pond to the north west may be part of this) and perhaps a moatii. There may also have been a mill, possibly north west of the hall (the 1682 map indicates a mill there). Wallingwells Priory was dissolved on the 14th December 1539 and after two short leases, the site was granted by Queen Elizabeth I to Richard Pype (a leather seller and Lord Mayor of London) and Francis Bowyer (a grocer) of London in 1563- 4iii. In 1569 (or 1578 according to Pevsneriv), Bowyer sold his part of the site to Pype. In the early-17th century, a house was built, probably incorporating remains of the nunnery, with the grounds landscaped. This included a walled garden (incorporating earlier structures), a formal canal (possibly reusing an earlier moat) around the north, east and south of the house (the remains of the circular basin survive as part of the fish pond to the south of the hall), together with tree-lined avenues/allées (this arrangement is shown on the v 1682 map ).

  • The State and the Country House in Nottinghamshire, 1937-1967
    THE STATE AND THE COUNTRY HOUSE IN NOTTINGHAMSHIRE, 1937-1967 Matthew Kempson, BSc. MA. Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2006 Abstract This thesis considers the state preservation and use of Nottinghamshire country houses during the mid-twentieth century, from the initiation of mass requisition in 1937 until 1967 when concerns for architectural preservation moved away from the country house. This thesis reviews literature on the landed estate in the twentieth century and the emergence of preservationist claims on the country house. Three substantive sections follow. The first discusses the declining representation of landowners within local governance in Nottinghamshire and the constitution of the County Council, and considers how estate space was incorporated within broadened concerns for the preservation of the historic environment and additionally provided the focus for the implementation of a variety of modern state and non-state functions. The second section considers how changing policy and aesthetic judgements impacted upon the preservation of country houses. Through discussion of Rufford Abbey, Winkburn Hall and Ossington Hall I consider the complexities of preservationist claims and how these conflicted with the responsibilities of the state and the demands of private landowners. The third section considers how estate space became valued by local authorities in the implementation of a variety of new modern educational uses, including the teacher training college at Eaton Hall and a school campus development at Bramcote Hills. The thesis concludes by considering the status of the country house in Nottinghamshire since 1967, and contemporary demands on the spaces considered historically in this study.
