Kirby Bellars October 2013 Author: Alan Fox
VCH Leicestershire Texts-in-progress Kirby Bellars October 2013 Author: Alan Fox SOCIAL HISTORY Social Structure and Character In 1086, 71 per cent of the Kirby ‘parish’ was held directly by the lord of Melton, along with parts of seven other ‘parishes’; the remaining 29 per cent was held of the Melton overlord by Ralph.1 Kirby had over a quarter of all the land held directly by the overlord in the eight ‘parishes’, and probably had a large proportion of the total of its 100 freemen, 10 villeins and 13 bordars. In contrast, there were no freemen on Ralph’s lands, but just six villeins and four bordars. There were no ‘servi’ (serfs) mentioned in the ‘parish’. Although there were two manors in Kirby in the thirteenth century, by 1318 Roger Beler (I) was returned as the sole lord.2 The Beler family were resident in the parish, although Roger Beler (I) had national duties which would have frequently taken him away.3 In 1316 the founding of the chantry created another layer of land holding, with its head and landlord also resident in the parish. The dissolution in 1536 would have had a considerable impact on the social as well as economic life of the parish. Throughout the medieval period and into the eighteenth century some lords of the manor were at least partly resident in Kirby, particularly Roger Beler (II), Thomas Markham, the De la Fontaines, the Meres and possibly the Swillingtons. However when Sir John Meres (son of Ann de la Fontaine) died without issue in 1735, the manorial estate and the former 1 A. -

Economic History
VCH Leicestershire Texts-in-progress Kirby Bellars October 2013 Author: Alan Fox ECONOMIC HISTORY Overview Kirby Bellars is a rural parish and has never been a major manufacturing or service location. Throughout its history, the main economic activity has been farming. An important feature in the 19th and early 20th centuries was the development of foxhunting.1 The parish has been well served by road, water and rail transport facilities. Since at least the mid-nineteenth century, a shop provided basic provisions and later a post office was included but both have now closed.2 The Flying Childers Inn was established on Main Road next to Kirby Hall in the eighteenth century and was relocated to its present position in 1905.3 Farming Medieval farming 1 TNA, RG 13/3012, 109. 2 Melville & Co, Dir. Leics (1854), 159; Kelly’s Dir., Leics & Rutland (1912), 113. 3 Melton Times, 14 Jun 1985, Oral testimony from David Wheeler. 1 In 1086 Kirby had 17 carucates (27 per cent) out of the total of nearly 70 carucates, held by Geoffrey de Wirce in the eight ‘parishes’ of the manor of Melton, but none of the manor’s 84 a. meadow was in Kirby.4 It is probable that Kirby had a good share of Melton manor’s 48 ploughs, 100 freemen, 10 villeins and 13 bordars. Another seven carucates of land and 20 a. of meadow in Kirby were held by Ralph of Geoffrey de Wirce.5 Ralph had three ploughs and there were also six villeins and four bordars with another plough. -

Foxhunting and the Landscape Between 1700 and 1900; with Particular Reference to Norfolk and Shropshire
Foxhunting and the landscape between 1700 and 1900; with particular reference to Norfolk and Shropshire Jane Bevan Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of History October 2011 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on the condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived from it, may be published without acknowledgement Abstract This thesis explores the history of foxhunting from 1700 to 1900. It examines how perceptions of an ideal hunting country, and what constituted an elite quarry, altered in tandem with alterations to the English lowland countryside. The relationship between the landscape and changes bought about by the upheaval of enclosure and agricultural development are discussed, in the context of the evolution in practice and geographical spread of foxhunting, at a national, regional and county-wide level. Several long-held beliefs are challenged. The social history of foxhunting and the increased participation of both ‘polite’ urban neophytes and prosperous tenant farmers during the two centuries is compared with the declining involvement of women. The impact of hunt clubs and the rise of subscription packs in the two study areas is contrasted. The influence of changes in the landscape on foxhunting is considered alongside the reciprocal impact of foxhunters manipulating the physical surroundings to enhance their sport. A detailed study of the history of hunting and its most iconic feature, the covert, in Norfolk and Shropshire highlights the importance of landowners control over the countryside. -
