Normanton Church, Rutland. Flooded and partially submerged by creation of Rutland Water.

Normanton Church is situated at the edge of Rutland Water, the

largest man-made lake in the UK. Originally called Empingham

Reservoir, the lake is one of many that were brought into being

since the late nineteenth century to provide water for an ever-

increasing population.

Lying near Oakham in the county of Rutland, the reservoir was

completed in 1977 and now covers an area of 3,100 acres. Rutland

Water is available for recreational purposes as well as providing

water for domestic and industrial use.

To make Rutland Water it was necessary to flood a large part of the

parish of Empingham. Sadly, this meant the destruction of some local

communities. Both the village of Nether Hambleton and Middle

Hambleton were cleared. The river Gwash and several others were

diverted to provide the water needed to fill the reservoir.

The valley had to be cleared and so Normanton Church was

deconsecrated and scheduled for demolition, but the general public

had other ideas and their protests were successful. When it came

time to flood the area, it became obvious that the church would be

partially submerged once the high-water level was reached. This

would mean the gradual erosion of its lower walls and foundations. A

hastily formed trust was organised with the aim of rescuing the

building from a watery demise and various proposals were considered.

Finally, it was decided that the lower level of the church should be

filled with rubble and topped with concrete to create a new floor.

This would be approximately 60cm above the water level. The church

would become a small island once the reservoir was filled, and so a

causeway was built connecting it to the nearby shore of the lake and

an embankment was constructed around the building. A layer of

boulders was then put in place as a defensive breakwater.
