- Lambley,_Nottinghamshire abstract "Lambley is a small village near Nottingham, England and is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 by the name of Lambeleia. One of its most famous "children" was Lord Ralph Cromwell. Born in the village in 1394, he became the Lord Treasurer of England to Henry VI, and was responsible for submitting the first budget to Parliament. The Parish Church, Holy Trinity, has stone carvings depicting purses and indicating Cromwell's status. It is unlikely that Ralph Cromwell is related to Oliver CromwellHoly Trinity Church, located in the historic centre of the village, is a Norman church with a tower. It has a single bell. Inside the church is a Jacobean rood screen. On the outer walls can be seen numerous grooves where arrows were sharpened during the middles ages, archery was practiced in the churchyard. The village was famous for framework knitting. Framework knitters worked from home producing silk hosery. The knitting frame was invented in the 17th Century by the Rev William Lee in nearby Calverton. Framework knitting continued in the village until the early twentieth century and the cottages inhabited by framework knitters are distinctive because of their large windows designed to maximise natural light. A textile factory remained in the village providing employment at least until the 1980s Another facet of the village's industrial heritage is the relationship with the now defunct Gedling Colliary. Lambley men began working as miners in the nineteenth century walking to the pit along a track which still exists today. During the twentieth century housing was built on Cromwell Crescent and Flamstead Avenue, and many miners and their families moved there. In the 1970s the closure of coal mines in Scotland led several Scottish families to settle in the village.The industrial revolution also saw radical religious changes throughout the East Midlands and the village was a centre of Methodism there were three chapels: the Primitive Methodist Church on Main Street, the Wesleyan Methodist Church on Chapel Lane (now a private house) and the Victoria Hall which later became a temperance institute and was demolished in the 1980s. Sarah Kirkland a pioneering female evangelist brought the Primitive Methodist movement from Staffordshire in the early nineteenth century. Two chapels closed following Methodist Union in 1932. The remaining chapel on the Main Street closed around 2003..The village had two windmills. However both have been demolished. The field and mound where one stood is called "Round Hill" and is now a protected "monument". The other stood on Mill Lane and a bungalow stands in its place. However a subtle architectural feature reminds us of its presence: the corner of an adjacent cottage falls away at an angle to prevent the building being hit by rotating sails.There is a stream called Cocker Beck running through the "Dumbles" (woods) and on through the middle of the village. In the past this was the main source of water and a spring flowing into the stream was regarded as a particularly pure source of water. It is a pretty village, mostly untouched by urbanisation, since it is situated in the green belt. Due in part to its close commuting distance to Nottingham (approx 6 miles) houses in the village have become high priced real estate.[citation needed]In the centre of the village is a field called the Pingle meaning a 'ringed hill' where earthworks can be observed. These are the remains of a Norman fortified manor house, Lambley Manor, and stew ponds where fish were kept for food. There is also a pond known as the Reed Pond which was created in the 1970s on the site of an ancient pond where the fish were bred. It is now a nature reserve. Situated in a horseshoe shaped valley, the village is secluded, but in the nineteenth century became a popular place for Nottingham people to visit. The Dumbles became a popular location for courting couples and was reputed to have been visited by DH Lawrence. On Lambley Sunday, also known as Cowslip Sunday,children from Nottingham would walk out to the village and collect cowslips. These were used to make cowslip wine. Even in the 1970s older people could remember this tradition. Around 2009, the village got more festive and created "Cowslip Sunday" Where there is a play, reenacting scenes from Lambley,Long ago. There is also a parade around the village, showing pride in the cowslip. Children today still go out and pick bunches of cowslips in the surrounding countryside. Today Nottingham people continue to visit the village to drink in the pubs, eat in 'The Lambley' restaurant and to visit the garden centre located on Catfoot Lane. The Dumbles remain a favoured route for ramblers.Like many old villages Lambley has more public houses than local shops or amenities. Lambley used to have 3 public houses. The once named "Nags Head" is now a successful restaurant called "The Lambley". Currently it has two public houses, The Woodlark Inn and Robin Hood Inn, but just over a hundred years ago there were five pubs, even though the population back then was just 770.Until the end of the twentieth century there were a number of shops in the village, such as a butchers, grocery store, co-operative and post office. However with the advent of supermarkets these have closed although Lambley still boasts one of the few remaining village garages in the area called "Lambley Motors", a locally run garage by the Tomlinson family. Lambley Motors provides a small selection of provisions in addition to the 'attended' fuel service, servicing and repairs and van sales.Lambley has had a village school since the 1870 Education Act when state education first became available and a church school was set up in premises on Church Street that later, for a long time, served as a church hall and are now used as a day nursery.. The present primary school was built in the early twentieth century at the bottom of Catfoot Lane and extended in the 1960s. At the end of Year 6 most pupils at Lambley County Primary School transfer to the Colonel Frank Seely School in Calverton for their secondary education. The school hall serves as the village hall.Lambley was one of the worst affected areas during the heavy flooding that hit England in June 2007.".
