Tittensor
Tittensor village is located in Staffordshire, England, between Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stone. The village consists of mostly 1960s housing as well as the few remaining houses from the 19th century. Historically Tittensor forms part of Stone parish. The Tittensor family〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=TITTENSOR One-Name Study Homepage )〕 occupied a manor house which passed to the Gerrard family sometime before 1405. The house was destroyed and rebuilt several times over the centuries, and was finally demolished in 1834. Some of the materials were used to build St Luke's church in Tittensor which was constructed in 1880-81. The ruins of the manor house remained until they were finally demolished in the early 1960s.
==History==
It was originally mentioned in the Domesday Book and became part of the Trentham Estate of the Duke of Sutherland in the nineteenth century. The village was enlarged in the 1960s by a private estate, providing the majority of the houses that stand there today, including council owned houses. In 2002 Tittensor has been expanded by a new development on the site of Groundslow Hospital,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Archaeology Data Service: myADS )〕 an old maternity hospital. Groundslow Villa was built in 1832 as a hunting lodge for the Duke of Sutherland when he lived at Trentham Park (the date can be seen on one of the walls) and in 1913 was sold and became a tuberculosis sanatorium as an annexe to the Staffordshire General Infirmary in Stafford. In 1956 it was still a Tuberculosis Sanatorium, with separate Men's and Women's wards.〔TB patient〕 In later years, certainly by 1960,〔Born March 1960〕 the former Women's TB building had become a 117 bed maternity hospital, until closure in 1983.
〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Midlands Heritage Forum )〕 Camelot Court nursing home later opened in the administrative block of the former hospital in September 1985, while Groundslow Grange care home opened in October 1984 in the former nurses' accommodation, which had been built in 1949. It was run by Peter Ratchford and former Benny Hill girl Anne Bruzac. The residential care home closed in 1997, and by 2002 the adjacent former hospital was redeveloped into detached homes and terraces, while the Duke's former home was converted into 25 flats.
