  • Records Indexes Tithe Apportionment and Plans Handlist
    Records Service Records Indexes Tithe Apportionment and Plans handlist The Tithe Commutation Act of 1836 replaced the ancient system of payment of tithes in kind with monetary payments. As part of the valuation process which was undertaken by the Tithe Commissioners a series of surveys were carried out, part of the results of which are the Tithe Maps and Apportionments. An Apportionment is the principal record of the commutation of tithes in a parish or area. Strictly speaking the apportionment and map together constitute a single document, but have been separated to facilitate use and storage. The standard form of an Apportionment contains columns for the name(s) of the landowners and occupier(s); the numbers, acreage, name or description, and state of cultivation of each tithe area; the amount of rent charge payable, and the name(s) of the tithe-owner(s). Tithe maps vary greatly in scale, accuracy and size. The initial intent was to produce maps of the highest possible quality, but the expense (incurred by the landowners) led to the provision that the accuracy of the maps would be testified to by the seal of the commissioners, and only maps of suitable quality would be so sealed. In the end, about one sixth of the maps had seals. A map was produced for each "tithe district", that is, one region in which tithes were paid as a unit. These were often distinct from parishes or townships. Areas in which tithes had already been commutated were not mapped, so that coverage varied widely from county to county.

  • A PROVISIONAL LIST Although the Structural History of Bordesley
    THE ABBOTS OF BORDESLEY: A PROVISIONAL LIST Although the structural history of Bordesley abbey, Redditch (Worcs, England), is now relatively well-known through the important excavations at the site,1 the documentary history of this important Cis- tercian house remains largely neglected.2 The present paper is intended to go a little way towards redressing this neglect by offering a provisio— nal list of the abbots of Bordesley from the time of its foundation in 1138 until its dissolution four centuries later in 1538. This is by no me- ans the first attempt to reconstruct the abbatial succession for the hou- se. For example, lists of abbots were offered by antiquaries such as Browne Willis, Thomas Tanner, Treadway Nash, and the later editors of William Dugdale's Monasticon Anglicanum, as well as by more re- cent scholars and historians.3 However, on closer analysis, these (what I shall term) «antiquarian lists» prove to be lacking in various respects, while the most recent and scholarly list of abbots of Bordesley does not go beyond 1222.4 l.

  • Collegiate Churches, Ten Priories, and Six Nunneries, Whilst the Massive Remains of Fourteen Military Strongholds Are Still More Or Less Evident
    ST.AFFORDSRIR~, Collegiate Churches, ten Priories, and six Nunneries, whilst the massive remains of fourteen military strongholds are still more or less evident. The Benedictines early established themselves at Burton Abbey, in 1002, and at the Priory of Lapley a few years afterwards. 1'hey also had foundations at the Abbey of Calwich, and the Priories ofTutbury, Blythe­ bury, Can well, and Sand well, together with the Nunneries of Farewell and Blackladies. The Augustinian Canons built the Abbeys of Ronton and Roccster, and had besides the Priories of Trentham, Stone, Stafford and St. Thomas at Lichfield. The Cistercian Order boasted of the three Abbeys of Croxden, Abbey Hulton, and Dieu la Cresse and they also . had a monastery at Radmore, in the forest of Cannock. The Cluniac monks never gained a footing in the county, but the remains of Dudley Priory, founded in 1140, just outside the border line still assert their near presence. Of the various orders of Friars, the Grey Friars were repre­ sented at Lichfield and Stafford, the Austin Friars at Stafford only. 1'he Knights Templar had a Preceptory at Keele, and also lands at Stoke. In Parish Churches, however, Staffordshire was not so richly endowed as many other counties, the approximate numbers, at the time of "the Domesday Survey, amounting only to about 28 or 30, though during the later Norman period the number increased at a rapid rate. The following were formerly Collegiate Churches, viz., . ·wol verhampton, Tettenhall, Gnosall, Lichfield, Penkridge, Stafford, &c. Tho mcdimval military remains comprise the Castles of Stafford, Wednesbmy, Chartley, Dudley, Alton, 1'utbury, Eccleshall, Caverswall, Heyleigh, Lichfield, Chesterton, N ~w­ castle, Stourton, and Audley, some of which have absolutely disappeared, whilst others frown formidably even in their ruin.

  • Settlement Hierarchy and Social Change in Southern Britain in the Iron Age
    SETTLEMENT HIERARCHY AND SOCIAL CHANGE IN SOUTHERN BRITAIN IN THE IRON AGE BARRY CUNLIFFE The paper explores aspects of the social and economie development of southern Britain in the pre-Roman Iron Age. A distinct territoriality can be recognized in some areas extending over many centuries. A major distinction can be made between the Central Southern area, dominated by strongly defended hillforts, and the Eastern area where hillforts are rare. It is argued that these contrasts, which reflect differences in socio-economic structure, may have been caused by population pressures in the centre south. Contrasts with north western Europe are noted and reference is made to further changes caused by the advance of Rome. Introduction North western zone The last two decades has seen an intensification Northern zone in the study of the Iron Age in southern Britain.
