White's Directory of Leicestershire and Rutland 1877

Redmile parish, in Grantham Union and County Court District, and Framland Hundred, comprises 1170 acres, and in 1871 had 503 persons, residing in 100 houses. The soil is chiefly a fertile clay. The assessment to the county rate in 1876 was £2,906. The Duke of Rutland, the principle owner, is the lord of the manor, which was anciently called Redmild and has been held by the owner of Belvoir Castle since the time of the Conquest. Redmile village, 2 miles N. from Belvoir Castle, is seated in the finest part of the Vale of Belvoir, 2 miles S. by W. of Bottesford, 9 miles W. of Grantham, and 13 miles N.N.E. of Melton Mowbray. At a place called All Hallows, on the Nottingham road, are the foundations of an ancient building, supposed to have been a religious house. The church consists of nave, aisles, chancel, and a tower, surmounted by a spire, and containing three bells. It was re-pewed in 1827 and a new organ by Foster & Andrews, Hull, was purchased in 1870 for £120. The church contains several mural tablets and, on the north side of the chancel is a Sunday School and vestry, The benefice, a rectory, valued in K. B. at £12 9s 2d. and now at £450 per annum is in the patronage of the Duke of Rutland, and incumbency of the Rev. George Sandford Outram, BA., who has a handsome residence, built in 1820 at a cost of £1,000, and 315 acres of land allotted at the enclosure in 1793, in lieu of tithes. The Primitive Methodists have a chapel here, erected in 1869, at an outlay of £620, raised by subscription, in lieu of that built in 1828. The National School was erected in 1839, and rebuilt in 1871, at a cost of £400, raised by voluntary contributions. The old school had been erected at the expense of a late rector, the father of the present incumbent, save the site and the timber, which were found by the Duke of Rutland. The parish feast is on the Sunday after Old St. Peter's day. The poor have the interest of £10, left by William Sills; a yearly rent-charge of 5s. out of Mill Close, left by Thomas Furmidge; and the interest of £10, left by John Shilcock in 1838.
