Printed by Cupit Print, The Ropewalk, Horncastle, Lincolnshire, LN9 5ED 2 Introduction by Robert Lawrence Hay Bell aving the same names as his father (and same initials as his grandfather) it was perhaps inevitable that Robert Hay Bell would follow his father Hinto the family business of Land Agency. But by the tender age of 28 he had experienced more than many of us see in the whole of our lives. He was born during the First World War at Lansdowne, Spilsby Road, Horncastle, the fourth child of six and the eldest son. His father was an auctioneer and land agent and came from a family of factors or land agents who had started in Perthshire. His great grandfather, George Bell, had secured the post of resident land agent on the Revesby Estate in 1842 bringing his family to Lincolnshire. His quick open mind fostered an interest in a wide variety of subjects including, centrally, agriculture. It was his perseverance that kept Horncastle cattle market going (perhaps beyond its natural life).

Early British Pottery RESUME OF THE PAST FIELD MEETINGS OF THE UNION, 1893-1905. Believing that members, who have recently joined the Union> will find some little interest in knowing where field meetings have been held in the past, and that old members will not be displeased to be reminded of what districts have been visited, this resume has been drawn up. The information contained in it will also be of some use in making future arrangements for visiting the varied surface of our wide county. On June 12th, 1893, the first Field meeting was held at MABLETHORPE — a great day for lovers of nature. Many county naturalists, and also neighbours from adjacent counties, lent their aid in making the opening day a success. The out- come was the formation of the Lincolnshire Naturalists' Union, as now constituted. The second meeting was held on August 7th, at WOOD- H.\LL SPA, and a goodly number of species were recorded. May 24th, 1894, found the members at LINCOLN. The bank of the Fossdyke and Hartsholme \^^ood were investigated, and a general meeting was held in the evening.

Lincolnshire Coast and Marshes Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

  • Louth Eastfield Infants and Nursery Academy Admission Policy 2022-23
    Agenda Item 7a Eastfield Infants’ and Nursery Academy Admissions Policy 2022/23 Year 202/23 Executive Principal Emma Beveridge Chair of Governors Karl Gabbitas 1 Agenda Item 7a Admission arrangements for community and voluntary controlled primary, infant and junior schools 2021/2022 This policy applies for primary, infant and junior schools. The County Council has delegated to the governing bodies of individual community and voluntary controlled schools the decisions about which children to admit. Every community and voluntary controlled school must apply the County Council’s policy when dealing with these applications. Arrangements for applications for places in the normal year of intake (reception in primary and infant schools and year 3 in junior schools) will be made in accordance with Lincolnshire County Council's co-​ordinated admission arrangements. ​ Lincolnshire residents can apply online via the parent portal at www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/schooladmissions, by telephone or by requesting a paper ​ application. Residents in other areas must apply through their home local authority. Community and voluntary controlled schools will use the Lincolnshire County Council's co ordinated scheme published online for these applications and the relevant Local Authority will make the offers of places on our behalf as required by the School Admissions Code (2014). Places will be allocated first to those who make an application before other children are considered. The published admission number of each school is outlined at the end of this document. Attending a nursery or a pre-school does not give any priority within the oversubscription criteria for a place in a school. Parents must make a separate application for the transfer from a nursery to a primary or infant school.

  • River Witham the Source of the 8Th Longest River Wholly in England Is
    River Witham The source of the 8th longest river wholly in England is just outside the county, Lincolnshire, through which it follows almost all of a 132km course to the sea, which is shown on the map which accompanies Table Wi1 at the end of the document. Three kilometres west of the village of South Witham, on a minor road called Fosse Lane, a sign points west over a stile to a nature reserve. There, the borders of 3 counties, Lincolnshire, Rutland and Leicestershire meet. The reserve is called Cribb’s Meadow, named for a famous prize fighter of the early 19th century; at first sight a bizarre choice at such a location, though there is a rational explanation. It was known as Thistleton Gap when Tom Cribb had a victory here in a world championship boxing match against an American, Tom Molineaux, on 28th September 1811; presumably it was the only time he was near the place, as he was a Bristolian who lived much of his life in London. The organisers of bare-knuckle fights favoured venues at such meeting points of counties, which were distant from centres of population; they aimed to confuse Justices of the Peace who had a duty to interrupt the illegal contests. Even if the responsible Justices managed to attend and intervene, a contest might be restarted nearby, by slipping over the border into a different jurisdiction. In this fight, which bore little resemblance to the largely sanitised boxing matches of today, it is certain that heavy blows were landed, blood was drawn, and money changed hands, before Cribb won in 11 rounds; a relatively short fight, as it had taken him over 30 rounds to beat the same opponent at the end of the previous year to win his title.

  • Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Management Plan
    Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Management Plan 2018 – 2023 DRAFT PLAN Public Consultation Produced on behalf of Lincolnshire County Council, East Lindsey District Council, West Lindsey District Council, North East Lincolnshire Council and partners by The Lincolnshire Wolds Countryside Service and Lincolnshire Wolds Joint Advisory Committee (AONB Partnership) Navigation Warehouse, Riverhead Road, Louth Lincolnshire LN11 0DA Tel: (01522) 555780 www.lincswolds.org.uk Page 27 Chairman's Introduction Welcome to the (DRAFT) Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) Management Plan which sets out the proposed updated Strategy and Action Plan for the period 2018- 2023. The Lincolnshire Wolds was designated as an AONB in 1973, recognising it as one of the country’s finest landscapes, a designation on a par with our National Parks. The Lincolnshire Wolds is a hidden jewel of the English countryside and one of only two nationally protected landscapes in the East Midlands region, the other being the Peak District National Park. During the 45 years since its designation as an AONB, the continued modernisation of farming, demands of modern living and development of new technologies have imposed continued pressures on the landscape. However these are both threats and opportunities. Our overarching goal is to ensure that the Wolds retains its unique landscape and undeniable special character, whilst maintaining and supporting its communities. We are keen to thank the many organisations, local groups and individuals that have been involved in the development of this document to date. A public consultation questionnaire took place during the summer of 2016 with extensive coverage in the local press and social media.
