Fun Facts…. Towcester’s Historic Connection to Wood and Fire
Roman-Era Wood & Early Industry
Excavations in and around Towcester (then Roman Lactodorum) uncovered corn-drying ovens, carbonised grain, and burnt clay debris, suggesting wooden ovens or kilns powered by fire, highlighting early uses of wood and controlled fire in food processing.
Significant Historical Fires
1707/8: A general fire caused damage costing £1,057, a considerable sum at the time.
25 March 1749: A catastrophic blaze at the George Inn started when a candle ignited straw, which spread and consumed 36 houses, demonstrating how quickly wood-based buildings could go up in flames.
Early 20th century:
◦ 1901: The Phipps & Co brewery in Towcester was destroyed by fire.
◦ 1921: The Hesketh Boot and Shoe Factory met the same fate.
◦ 1923: A fire razed the Towcester Grammar School.
These events reflect how wood as structural material and fuel, especially in commercial and educational buildings, left Towcester susceptible to destructive fires.
Towcester Mill: Wood, Water, and Fuel
• A mill at Towcester is recorded in the Domesday Book (1086), originally harnessing water power from the River Tove via a leat to run its machinery.
• The mill, built around 1794 from ironstone, used wooden and metal machinery to grind corn and mix animal feed. The site was restored in the 1990s with a working water turbine.
• Although there’s no specific record of fire in the mill, pre-modern mills typically had wooden components, grain, which is combustible, and heat sources, all combining to create a fire risk. The presence of fire engines at nearby local incidents also signals an enduring concern with safeguarding such structures.
Ancient Woodlands: Wood Burcote
• Just south of Towcester lies Wood Burcote, a hamlet whose name reflects an ancient woodland, rich in bluebells and ramsons in spring, an enduring reminder of the region’s natural wooded heritage.
