Location and amenities

Hose was merged with Harby and Long Clawson on 1 April 1936.[4] It lies in the north-east of the county, in the Vale of Belvoir, close to the route of the defunct Grantham Canal, which has been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest and underwent a campaign of environmental dredging and planting in 2014.[1]

The weekday bus service No. 24, between Melton and Bottesford and Bingham runs through the village.[5] All three termini have railway stations.

The village has a medieval Anglican church, a Baptist chapel, a shop and sub-post office, a village hall with playing fields, and a public house, the Rose and Crown. The village green is known as the Park, and includes the premises of a blacksmith.[1]

Origins

A group of Bronze Age burial mounds of about 1500 BC have been identified a mile to the south of the parish boundary. Signs of more extensive occupation date from the Roman period of the 1st–4th centuries AD. The village probably existed from the late Saxon period. Hose was cited as "Hoches" and "Howes" in the Domesday Book of 1086.[1]
