dbo:abstract
  • Quernmore ist ein Ort und eine civil parish in Lancashire, England. Die civil parish, die knapp 5 km östlich von Lancaster liegt hat 521 Einwohner (2001). Quernmore liegt außerhalb des historischen Forest of Bowland aber innerhalb der Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty des Forest of Bowland. Im 18. Jh. und 1970 wurden römische Töpferöfen und Tonscherben im Bereich von Quernmore gefunden, was auf eine römische Besiedlung hinweist. Am Westhang des Clougha Pike, der im Osten des Ortes liegt, wurden Mühlsteine für Handdrehmühlen (auch Quern genannt) in einem auch heute noch sichtbaren Steinbruch abgebaut. Der River Conder fließt durch Quernmore und es gibt noch zwei Wassermühlen in diesem Bereich. Nördlich des Ortes Quernmore liegt isoliert die Pfarrkirche St Peter. Die Kirche wurde 1860 von dem Architekten im Auftrag von William Garnett, dem Besitzer von Quernmore Park Hall erbaut. Die Kirche ist heute ein Baudenkmal und wird von English Heritage als Grade-II-listed Building geführt. (de)
  • Quernmore (pronounced /ˈkwɔːmər/ KWOR-mər) is a village and civil parish in the City of Lancaster in Lancashire, England. It is located about 3 miles (5 km) east of Lancaster. The parish of Quernmore had a population of 532 recorded in the 2001 census, increasing to 567 at the 2011 Census. Apart from Quernmore itself, the parish also includes Brow Top, once a local crafts mecca, now barn conversions. The village consists of a small number of residential properties, mostly farm houses, nestling in the bottom of the small valley of the River Conder. The valley has an ancient history. In 1970 a Roman pottery kiln was unearthed near the Friends Meeting House, and other kilns have been discovered in the local vicinity. In former times, the slopes of Clougha Pike which forms the eastern wall of the valley, were mined for millstone grit to form quern stones. There was some small scale coal mining and charcoal production. The valley also has two surviving watermills, one on the slopes towards Littledale and one at Conder Mill whose mill pond now is used as a fishery. Quernmore was at one stage a Royal Forest. The Methodist chapel lies at the heart of the community but is smaller than St Peter's, the Church of England church which lies isolated next to Quernmore Primary School. There used to be one public house whose address is still the Temperance Hotel. The name used to be the Dog and Partridge (this name can still be seen on the electrical substation, 100m to the south). It became the Temperance Hotel after the construction of the Thirlmere Aqueduct, completed 1894, as a consequence of the rowdiness of the navvies working on the aqueduct. The public house closed in 1900. The premises became the post office and village store until closure in 2008. The largest residential property is Quernmore Park, built in 1795 by the architect Thomas Harrison. Quernmore lies within the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, although it is outside the historical area of the Lordship of Bowland. The village was the first connected to the Broadband 4 Rural North high speed broadband network. (en)
