  • Sheep and Enclosure in Sixteenth-Century Northamptonshire* by JOHN MARTIN
    Sheep and Enclosure in Sixteenth-Century Northamptonshire* By JOHN MARTIN Abstract It is commonly accepted that there was a slackening of the enclosure movement, if not outright reconversion to arable, in England in the latter half of the sixteenth century. This is usually ascribed to lower wool prices making shecp-grazing less attractive. There are difficulties with this pcrspective linking prices and enclosure activity directly. The example of Northampton- shire, a county in the forefront of enclosure, suggests that there was no trend away from sheep-farming. Two surveys of sheep numbers on enclosed pasture, conducted in 1547 and 1564, indicate that sheep-grazing spread throughout the county, and that grazing was concentrated on deserted village sites. Whilc there was some reduction in the size of large flocks, this was more than balanced by the proliferation of smaller flocks - overall sheep numbers increased in this pcriod. By the end of the century, sheep flocks were grazing on enclosed pasture in half of thc parishes in Northamptonshirc. INCE Bowden's detailed work on wool prices was its role in explaining the pattern prices for the period 149o-161o , it of the Tudor enclosure movement. He S has been argued that, after the mid- sought to draw a dividing line down the sixteenth century, lower wool prices rela- middle of the sixteenth century on this tive to those of wheat deflected graziers basis. from sheep-farming and halted the process Thc rcason why farmers were enclosing their land of enclosure, or even caused a considerable for pasture in thc first half of the sixteenth century reconversion of pasture to arable land.

Our policy information is available from the repository home page. Popular Religion, Culture and Politics in the Midlands, c. 1638-1646 Simon Charles Osborne Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Warwick Department of History February, 1993 Summary This thesis is a study of popular allegiance in five midland counties during the English Civil War, 1642- 1646. It considers the relationship between allegiance and popular religion and culture. It aims to provide a regional case study of popular reactions to the war, with particular reference to recent theories of allegiance, which have emphasised the role played by religion and culture. Although the approach is broadly chronological, religion and culture are discussed mainly in the first half of the thesis, and popular allegiance in the second. Chapter One surveys popular religion and culture in the region from c. 1603 to 1638. Chapter Two characterises popular politics on the eve of the Civil War. Chapter Three deals with popular religion and culture in the late 1630s and during the war. In particular, it considers whether or not distinct cultural regions had evolved by this time, and the nature and extent of popular puritanism and 'Anglicanism'.

  • Chaucer, St Loy, and the Celts
    Chaucer, St Loy, and the Celts Andrew Breeze University of Navarre, Pampiona Although St Loy the smith was one of the popular saints of late medieval Europe, the British evidence for his legend has never been full y described. In its common form the legend tells how St Loy, while working as a blacksmith, calmed a dangerously rearing horse (believed possessed by the Devil) with the sign of the cross, cut off its leg, shod the leg, and then attached it to the horse again without ill effect. This story was known to Chaucer and St Thomas More, both of whom allude to the saint's power with horses. Other references to the legend in Britain occur in sources as diverse as English art, Welsh poetry, and Protestant polemic. However, in spite of its popularity, this story has been neglected by Anglicists and others, perhaps because it existed almost entirely in oral form. There certainly seems to be no narrative written version of it in medieval British sources. In fact the oral nature of the legend receives striking confinnation from modern Irish and Scottish Gaelic folklore, where the account of the miraculous shoeing. without mention of St Loy, forms the first part of the tale Gabha an (Suic, 'The Smith of the Ploughshare'. Over the last hundred years or so this story has been coll ected from most parts of Ireland by folklore scholars, as well as in a Scottish Gaelic version from Tifee in the Inner Hebrides. We can assume that the tale of the miraculous shoeing was as familiar in medieval English spoken tradition as it has been in the spoken tradition of modem Gaelic communities.

  • Weedon St Loys
    Weedon St Loys Priory and Parish A History St Mary and St Peter Lois Weedon A Village History Acknowledgement This Parish History was originall y compliled by Kathleen Lewis and abridged into this current form by Sue Edwards one time resident of Lois Weedon. Kathleen Lewis was the wife of a former Vicar of Weedon Lois with Plumpton and Moreton Pinkney. The date of original publication of her “Weedon St Loys: Priory and Parish” histroy is now lost in the mists of time but it was reprinted “in her memory as a token of regard and affection by the parishioners in 1978, the year of her death on the 26 January.” Twenty years on, none of Mrs Lewis’ valuable historical research has been questioned or indeed corroborated; her work has simply been edited to meet the demands of a new era, when even historians appreciate a shorter read. Sources of information acknowledged by Mrs Lewis “Miss Dorothy Done of Hythe and the late Mr Aris Tinkner of London for the fruits of their researches which were made available to me; to Mr Cecil Hinton and Mrs Sidney Daniels for the information they have given; to Sir Sacheverell Sitwell, Mrs George Thompson, Mr Edward Poole and Mrs Frank Elkinton for the loan of books and documents.” The Historiocal Background The modern village is known by two names – Weedon Lois or Lois Weedon. The use of both is common – maps say one thing, road signs and the Post Office another and the villagers appear to be divided on the correct order. Back in Saxon times it was called simply Wedone – an Anglo-Saxon name meaning “a hill with a temple”.
