A Guide to the Views from Borough Hill Daventry Written by Museum Volunteer, Cllr Mike Arnold A guide to the views from Borough Hill Daventry Written by Museum Volunteer, Cllr Mike Arnold This is a guide to the views from Borough Hill and can be used on its own or whilst following one of the history walks (see links below). The hill is conveniently orientated almost North/South. With your back to the Arquiva building looking towards the golf course, West is left, and East is right. High ground to the South and North East restricts long views but they are still miles away. Looking East the hill is the highest point until you reach the Ural Mountains (Western Russia). Not bad for what was once a sandbank! In summer, when the trees are in leaf, the views to the north and east are obscured. New warehouse developments west of town also mean that you need to move around to get some of the views. The history of the hill is can be found in the self-guided walks available on the website or as a paper copy in the museum. Some of the more distant views can only be seen in clear weather and the furthest view is of the Black Mountains in Wales but it is extremely rare to see this. Normally Clee Hill is the furthest point. Views are better in winter, after leaf fall and when the air tends to be clearer. Do not try to climb on the large concrete pylon bases for a better view, they are high but the concrete and metal rods in the undergrowth below can make for an uncomfortable landing. And in fact there is little point because the hill surface is higher than the bases. How to use the map and observation points The map shows you what direction to look at for points of interest from the three observation points (they are colour coded). The highest point of the hill is the Arquiva compound which is why there are two points (yellow and black) either side of the building to see in different directions. The northern point (blue) is about 20 feet lower but is the hills second highest point and opens up the views to the north and south west, as well as avoiding the trees of the plantation to the east. Because the hill is tilted about 5° from magnetic north the points on the west appear to be slightly further south than in the diagram and those to the east further north. Many places can be seen from more than one observation point and because of the height of the land, vegetation and geography you may need to move around a bit for the best view, particularly where the newly built warehousing obscures the views to the west. Compass bearings are not used because of the different viewpoints and the need to move about but alongside some of the descriptions of the views there are photographs or drawings of what to look for. These are variable in quality due to atmospheric conditions at the time of printing but will be updated when there are better atmospherics or I learn to draw properly! When the first viewpoints guide was published by William Edgar in 1923 some of the main points were the pit head winding gears at various coal mines, all are now gone. However, energy production still dominates the views with all the wind turbines that are visible. I could once identify these when they were fewer in number, today I’m not always sure, so I do give a warning when that is the case. There is also an irritating line of pylons in the direction of Bedford which I can’t identify at all, so if you know what/where they are do get in touch with me via the museum (I suspect they cross the valley of the Great Ouse). Viewing points. Yellow 1. Birmingham (tower blocks). 34 miles.* 2. Client Hills. 42 miles.* 3. Lickey Hills. 36 miles.* 4. Clee Hill (off of the map). 60 miles. 5. Shuckburgh Hills. 5 miles. 6&7.

Naseby Hills.13 miles.* * * - most common alternative viewpoints. There are other things to be seen too; North: The M1 at Loughborough is visible, but it really needs to be night time to see for sure. East: Traffic on the M1 motorway. The West Coast Rail line (Northampton Loop), easily seen when a train runs on it. Althorp House The Eastern Horizon is mostly on the fen edge 40-50 miles away. South: The communications mast by the water tower at Preston Capes (roughly in the direction of Stowe Hill). The water tower at Nobottle??. West: Rugby Amazon Warehouse Town Centre and Church Hospital Arbury Hill, highest point in Northamptonshire In the 1923 guide there were a lot of church towers and steeples that were visible. Since then increased tree cover and buildings have obscured many of them. See if you can identify any.

  • Biological Surveys at Hunsbury Hill Country Park 2018
    FRIENDS OF WEST HUNSBURY PARKS BIOLOGICAL SURVEYS AT HUNSBURY HILL COUNTRY PARK 2018 Ryan Clark Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre April 2019 Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre Introduction Biological records tell us which species are present on sites and are essential in informing the conservation and management of wildlife. In 2018, the Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre ran a number of events to encourage biological recording at Hunsbury Hill Fort as part of the Friends of West Hunsbury Park’s project, which is supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Hunsbury Hill Country Park is designated as a Local Wildlife Site (LWS). There are approximately 700 Local Wildlife Sites in Northamptonshire. Local Wildlife Sites create a network of areas, which are important as refuges for wildlife or wildlife corridors. Hunsbury Hill Country Park was designated as a LWS in 1992 for its woodland flora and the variety of habitats that the site possesses. The site also has a Local Geological Site (LGS) which highlights the importance of this site for its geology as well as biodiversity. This will be surveyed by the local geological group in due course. Hunsbury Hill Country Park Local Wildlife Site Boundary 1 Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre (NBRC) supports the recording, curation and sharing of quality verified environmental information for sound decision-making. We hold nearly a million biological records covering a variety of different species groups. Before the start of this project, we looked to see which species had been recorded at the site. We were surprised to find that the only records we have for the site have come from Local Wildlife Site Surveys, which assess the quality of the site and focus on vascular plants, with some casual observations of other species noted too.

  • Members and Parish/Neighbourhood Councils RAIL UPDATE
    ITEM 1 TRANSPORT COMMITTEE NEWS 07 MARCH 2000 This report may be of interest to: All Members and Parish/Neighbourhood Councils RAIL UPDATE Accountable Officer: John Inman Author: Stephen Mortimer 1. Purpose 1.1 To advise the Committee of developments relating to Milton Keynes’ rail services. 2. Summary 2.1 West Coast Main Line Modernisation and Upgrade is now in the active planning stage. It will result in faster and more frequent train services between Milton Keynes Central and London, and between Milton Keynes Central and points north. Bletchley and Wolverton will also have improved services to London. 2.2 Funding for East-West Rail is now being sought from the Shadow Strategic Rail Authority (SSRA) for the western end of the line (Oxford-Bedford). Though the SSRA have permitted a bid only for a 60 m.p.h. single-track railway, excluding the Aylesbury branch and upgrade of the Marston Vale (Bedford-Bletchley) line, other Railtrack investment and possible developer contributions (yet to be investigated) may allow these elements to be included, as well as perhaps a 90 m.p.h. double- track railway. As this part of East-West Rail already exists, no form of planning permission is required; however, Transport and Works Act procedures are to be started to build the missing parts of the eastern end of the line. 2.3 New trains were introduced on the Marston Vale line, Autumn 1999. A study of the passenger accessibility of Marston Vale stations identified various desirable improvements, for which a contribution of £10,000 is required from this Council.

  • Agenda Item 8: West Coast Main Line Released Capacity
    East West Rail Consortium 13th March 2019 Agenda Item 8: West Coast Main Line Released Capacity Recommendation: It is recommended that the meeting: a) Note the update on the West Coast Main Line Released Capacity study b) Endorse the strategic issues identified in paragraph 2.6 that have been identified by England’s Economic Heartland as needing to be considered by the study c) Note that England’s Economic Heartland has established a working group of representative interests, working on a ‘task and finish’ basis to support the EEH Business Unit d) Note the update on the Old Oak Common: Future Chiltern Capacity 1. Context 1.1. The East West Rail Consortium has previously identified the strategic importance of developing rail services along the Northampton – Milton Keynes – Aylesbury – High Wycombe – Old Oak Common axis. 1.2. The opportunity to realise this occurs through a combination of the opening of East West Rail and the opening of the first stage of HS2. 1.3. The Chiltern and East West Rail Route Strategy was published by Network Rail in 2017 and identified the potential and need to develop this north- south axis, partly in response to limitations elsewhere on the network and partly in response to the potential for further passenger growth as a result of planned growth set out in locally. 1.4. Realising the potential to develop services on this north-south axis has been a long-standing strategic priority for England’s Economic Heartland and was included within the submission to the 2018 Budget. 1.5. Over and above the on-going work being taken forward by the East West Rail Company to deliver East West Rail, there are two pieces of work underway that are pertinent to realising the opportunity to deliver services on the north-south axis: London North West South CMSP – Released Capacity WCML South Old Oak Common Station: Future Chiltern Capacity 2.
