  • Bosworth at Redemore: Focus and Context
    Bosworth at Redemore: Focus and Context PETER J. FOSS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT local document to come to light in recent years (that is, since my work of the 1980s) relevant to the location of the battle of Bosworth is a demesne terrier belonging to the Abbey of St Mary de Pratis (Leicester Abbey) identified by Professor Barrie Cox in his contribution to the archaeological survey undertaken by the Battlefields Trust in 2005–09. The document1 is dated to between 1467 and 1484 and itemises fields, furlongs and meadows in the township of Stoke Golding (‘Stoke’) at the end of the fifteenth century, on the cusp of the battle of Bosworth. I would like here to offer a brief examination of this document and, together with other local records, show how it helps to focus on the place where the battle of Bosworth was fought, and how this reflects on the context of the archaeological discoveries made in 2009. I would also like to correct and rebal- ance a number of recent misconceptions. A Leicester Abbey Demesne Terrier The document identifies three open fields – Halmorefelde, Garbrodfelde and Whytmorefelde – which can be equated roughly with later named areas (from the early seventeenth century at least) in the same parish; that is, the later-named ‘Crownehillfielde’ with Garbrodfelde, ‘Milnehillfield’ with Whytmorefelde, and Halmorefelde with the area that lay south of the manor-house and its park (the ‘Park’ and ‘Great Pasture’ marked on Trimnell’s map of 1637).2 The inference has been made, reasonably, that the change of name from Garbrodfelde to Crownehillfelde

  • E0051 Ashby Canal Exec Summary.Indd
    Ashby Canal Restoration Snarestone to Measham BUSINESS PLAN SUMMARY Leicestershire County Council Community Services Department May 2006 The Ashby Canal Restoration Project This project is to restore the Ashby Canal from its current terminus at Snarestone northwards for a distance of 4.5 km to a new canal wharf at Measham (Map 1). The power to acquire the necessary land and to construct and maintain the canal was provided in October 2005 when the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs confirmed the Leicestershire County Council (Ashby de la Zouch Extension) Order made under the powers of the Transport and Works Act 1992. In making the Order the Secretary of State noted that the scheme is consistent with national, regional and local policies, would contribute significantly to regeneration objectives and would produce considerable economic, environmental and social benefits. History The Ashby Canal was completed in 1804 and connected Moira in north western Leicestershire to the Coventry Canal at Bedworth. It was used primarily to carry coal from the Ashby Woulds mines to markets in the Midlands and the South. The northern reaches of the canal were closed between 1944 and 1966 due to mining subsidence but in recent years the feasibility of restoration has been established and is strongly supported by local communities as a means of regeneration. The project will follow on from the successful restoration (1999 – 2005) of over 2km of the Ashby Canal between Donisthorpe and Moira at ‘The Heart of the National Forest’. This award-winning length hosts the annual Moira Canal Festival, and in conjunction Left: Moira Furnace before restoration The proposed canal - Measham Station (c1950) Below: Moira Furnace after restoration (May 2006) 2 3 with the adjacent Moira Furnace Museum and Conkers (the National Forest Discovery Centre) is a popular leisure destination throughout the year.

  • Shackerstone
    Shackerstone Conservation Area Appraisal The early history of the village is uncertain and first reference to the settlement appeared in the Doomsday Book of 1086 when reference was made to “Sacrestone” which means town of robbers. After the Norman Conquest when the Saxon estates were handed over to the Norman overlords, a 12th century castle was built to the north of Station Road, the earthworks of which are still visible. In the Elizabethan era the Halls were the prominent family in the village. They occupied Shackerstone Hall next to the church for over 200 years from around 1630 until they emigrated to Australia in 1829 after selling the estate to Lord Howe. The Hall burned down in 1845 and was replaced by the Gopsall estate workers cottage on Church Walk. At that time, the village was a successful self supporting community and had four farms, two pubs two shops, a bakery, a builder, a carpenter, brickworks, a post office, a coal merchant, a dressmaker, a shoemaker and a blacksmith. It also was the home for a large coach building business until 1935 run by the Insley family which provided employment for a coachbuilder, a wheelwright and up to 30 other people. The coach works supplied wagons and wheelbarrows throughout the country. The farms included Bridge Farm which also housed the village bakery, Church Farm, Arnold Farm and Cattows Farm. To support the 300 residents in the village Earl Howe funded the construction of the village school and school house in 1844. The school closed in the 1930’s and the school house is now the Village Hall.

  • Coalville Fringe Assessment
    Urban Fringe 1: Western edge of Thringstone and New Swannington 1: View from School Lane 2: View from Red Hill Lane Element Assessment Score The Coalfield: Gently undulating landscape with effects of past and present coal and clay working. It displays a relatively dense pattern of former mining towns and villages characterised by 19th century mining terraces which follow the roads. The landscape is characterised by mixed farmland although away from settlements the land is mostly arable. There is generally low woodland cover. The land contains areas of restored land, some including establishing heathland, once far more extensive. Around Coalville the landscape is influenced by Bardon 21 warehousing, Bardon quarry and other light industrial development. Bardon Hill and quarry are features within views. The assessment notes that the land is part of the National Forest. Northern tip is part of Charnwood Forest: The underlying pre-Cambrian rocks result in a varied, hilly landform with exposed crags and rocky knolls and fast-flowing streams, resulting in a distinctive County Landscape character. The area has a high concentration of mixed deciduous and coniferous woodland, including many ancient woodland sites, hedges and hedgerow trees, some of which is unmanaged. The character area area is characterised by an intimate mixture of woodland and farmland in mixed arable and pasture uses. The area’s acidic soils support pockets of heathland vegetation, particularly around rocky outcrops, where the land has never been taken into cultivation. There is variable field patterns, with irregular fields often bounded by mixed hedges contrasted with long narrow rectilinear fields with stone walls.

  • Benefice of Shepshed and Oaks in Charnwood
    St Botolph’s and St James the Greater Benefice of Shepshed and Oaks in Charnwood Monthly Parish News September 2015 !!GREAT NEWS!! CAR PARK REFURBISHMENT Following some extensive works at the end of July and beginning of August, there have now been significant improvements to the Church Car Park. It now comprises of an even surface made up of a grid system —by GRID FORCE—that is filled with crushed stone and provides a permeable surface through which water drains into the ground beneath. The remaining border will be planted with a new hedge-row hopefully being supplied “Free of charge” by the Woodland Trust in February. Car Park bay marking is to be reviewed with the contractor during September including specific disabled bays. No lighting is planned at this stage as it is uncertain exactly what is required and/or permissible. Car Park Before Car Park After CHURCH HALL NEW HEATING SYSTEM During the last few weeks of July a new heating system has been installed in the hall and comprises of radiators to the toilets, office and lobby which can be operated separately to the hall. A second system of two fan assisted radiators have been installed in the hall and the whole system is much more efficient than that which it replaced and will be more economic to operate. No complaints about being too hot please!! We are continuing to investigate ways to resolve other issues affecting the hall given that it is now being used for Family Services on Sundays. Page 1 MINISTERIAL MUSINGS As I sit and muse over what I am to write for this months ‘Musings’ I was aware that even though we were looking at the start of the new academic year we are affectively still in the middle of the holiday season.

  • Stoke Golding Neighbourhood Plan – Submission Version
    Stoke Golding Neighbourhood Plan: Submission 2020-2039 Stoke Golding Neighbourhood Plan: Submission Welcome to the Neighbourhood Plan for Stoke Golding. The plan is a culmination of the results of the 2016 questionnaire and consultations with local parishioners, businesses and other stake holders which shows how we would like to see our village evolve. It recognises the rural character of our Parish as well as its unique heritage. The plan appreciates that Stoke Golding residents would like to have a greater influence on the overall shape and development of their village over the next few years in many areas including biodiversity, maintaining important views, protecting our heritage and landscape, renewable energy, infrastructure and open spaces. It also determines what type of housing should take place and where we would choose to put it. The production of the plan has been led by the Neighbourhood Plan Advisory Committee on behalf of the Parish Council. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been involved in the process along the way. Without their dedication and hours of voluntary work, this plan just would not have been possible. I would also like to thank all of you for your support and patience. It has taken a long time due to the nature of the process. Stoke Golding is a lovely, friendly, vibrant village and we would like to maintain that for future generations.
