  • The Medieval Fishponds of Northamptonshire

    The Medieval Fishponds of Northamptonshire

    299 THE MEDIEVAL FISHPONDS OF NORTHAMPTONSHIRE "And many a breem and many a luce in stuwe." Chaucer, Prologue 1.350 THE recent decision of the Rothwell Urban District Council to reverse their policy of filling in and destroying the medieval fishponds a few hundred yards to the south of the church aroused public interest in a little known aspect of medieval life. An attempt will be made here to review the place of fish and fishponds in the medieval economy of Northamptonshire. Very little study has been done on the subject of fishponds. Allcroft, as long ago as 1908, produced a short account of them1 and recently several air photographs have been published.2 In 1966, B. K. Roberts produced an interesting study on a group in the Forest of Arden at Tamworth and he pointed out that not only were they very thick on the ground in his area but they were clearly not a seignorial monopoly and represented an investment of capital which had a prospect of yielding substantial returns.3 The interest of medieval people in eating fish was partly a matter of supplementing a salt meat diet, as was pointed out by Dr. Williams-Freeman.4 "A diet of salted meat with only watercress, pot herbs and a little cabbage for fresh vegetables produced as might be expected much illness ... scurvy and leprosy-loose terms of course, including nearly all skin diseases­ were the scourge of all classes and fresh fish was as great a necessity for a rich man's house as was the deer which he enclosed in his park." It was also, however, considered virtuous to eat fish in preference to meat.

    BOROUGH OF KETTERING Committee Full Planning Committee - 07/11/2019 Item No: 5.1 Report Theresa Nicholl Application No: Originator Development Team Leader KET/2019/0245 Wards Welland Affected Location Bowd Field (plot 1), Desborough Road, Stoke Albany Full Application: Change of use of land for the siting of 3 static caravans for residential use, to include installation of septic tank, Proposal hard standing for vehicular parking and bin storage, erection of post and rail fencing and soft landscaping Applicant Mr A Holland Jnr 1. PURPOSE OF REPORT To describe the above proposals To identify and report on the issues arising from it To state a recommendation on the application 2. RECOMMENDATION THE DEVELOPMENT CONTROL MANAGER RECOMMENDS that this application be REFUSED for the following reason(s):- 1. The proposed site lies in open countryside away from the nearest settlements. It lies in an elevated and exposed position within the Geddington Chase Character Area and is strongly representative of the local landscape character. The positioning of residential caravans on this land and the associated development and paraphernalia represents an incongruous feature within the local landscape and open countryside and does not recognise or respect the intrinsic character and beauty of the countryside. The proposed landscaping is also incongruous within the naturalistic setting and other landscaping would not overcome the stark appearance of the development. Furthermore, the development harms the experience of users of Public Footpaths HA2 and HA6 who are regarded as being of high sensitivity to change. The application is therefore contrary to policies 2 and 31 of the North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy, saved policy 7 of the Local Plan for Kettering Borough, paragraphs 25 and 26 of the Planning Policy for Traveller Sites and paragraph 170 of the NPPF.

    Langtons' and District Newsletter

    Langtons’ and District Newsletter Spring Edition 2020 February Fill Dyke An old saying goes, "February fill dyke, be black or be it white; Be it white, 'tis better to like." This roughly means that rain and snow are both welcome in February, although snow is preferable. Well it’s certainly been black this year. Harborough District Council are encouraging parish councils to put in place Community Response Plans in the event of an incident such as severe weather. Tur Langton Parish Council has theirs and East Langton Parish Council’s is nearly completed (see p 7). The plan provides a guide as to how and where the local community may support the Emergency services in terms of information and providing predetermined resources where appropriate. Let’s hope we never have to use it. Keep safe. Roz Folwell Stonton Wyville taken by G. Devereaux-Batchelor Printed by Omniprint, Market Harborough 1 2 Church Langton CE (AIDED) Primary School Young Voices The pupils in years five and six were very fortunate to have the opportunity to perform as part of a six thousand strong choir at the Young Voices concert at the Birmingham Arena. Supported by a very keen team of teachers, the children sang with a wide range of acts including Tony Hadley and alongside street dance group Urban Sounds. This is part of our ongoing opportunities for the pupils to take part in musical performances to different audiences. As part of the Spark Festival, a celebration of the arts taking place in Leicester during February, we were delighted to welcome an IndoJazz band to perform to the children.

    Langtons’ and District Newsletter Spring So What Happened to Edition the Christmas Edition 2019 of the Newsletter? Well, I was just finishing laying up the edition when I slipped and fell in the garden resulting in a three and a half hour operation to put a rod in my B6047 Tur Langton right tibia leaving the fibia to find its own way back from the twist fractures I had sustained. I have to thank the surgeon’s and staff at the Royal Infirmary for the excellent care I received during my ten day stay and to all those who sent best wishes for my recovery. I’d also like to thank Sue Lambert for her help delivering the Newsletter in Thorpe Langton after she took over from Irene Ward, and for the news items she sent me over the years. We wish her well in her new home. Talking about new homes, I’d like to welcome, on behalf of the Langton Community Hall Committee, all the new residents that have just moved into Church Langton. We have had quite a number of families move into the village and we hope they settle in well and join in the community activities. Being ’out of commission’ showed how the magazine really needs help in the process of contacting advertisers and contributors, writing up articles and laying up etc. We also need someone to deliver the Newsletter in Thorpe Langton. If you think you can spare a little time every three months please let me know. And when you have an event you’re planning and have held, don’t forget to advertise and take photos to let us know what’s happening in the district.
