ACTON SCOTT St Margaret Diocese of Hereford SO45368943
ACTON SCOTT St Margaret Diocese of Hereford SO45368943 There are no fewer than 6 ancient or veteran yews among the 13 that grow here. They form a cluster (numbers 5 to 10) at the west end of the churchyard. The majority of these older trees appeared to be male. Photos and girths are from 2012. Tree 5 is multi-stemmed from a short bole. It is only when viewed from the farmyard below that its size can be appreciated, with a root system that reaches the ground at the base of an 8' high wall. It was not possible to measure this tree. Tree 6 grows on the left side of the gate leading from the church- yard to the farmyard. Inclusion of the almost separated branch growing at the edge of the bole would create a girth of 26/28'. Excluding it gives a girth closer to 22'. The photo on the left shows the tree’s vast root system seen from the farmyard below. Tree 7 (left) grows on the right side of the gate. It is a solid tree, with a girth of approximately 17'. Tree 8 is the only yew that does not mark the churchyard perimeter. It is an ancient hollow tree with fine internal stems. Girth was 20' 4'' at 1', but it has been larger. It is the only tree singled out in The King’s England c1938 where Mee wrote that ‘among the fine yews in the churchyard is a grand veteran 21' round out-topping the massive 13th century tower’. It is seen here in 1998 (left) and 2012 (right). -

The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575
The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575 Elizabeth Murray A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts United Faculty of Theology The Melbourne College of Divinity October, 2007 Abstract Most English Reformation studies have been about the far north or the wealthier south-east. The poorer areas of the midlands and west have been largely passed over as less well-documented and thus less interesting. This thesis studying the north of the county of Shropshire demonstrates that the generally accepted model of the change from Roman Catholic to English Reformed worship does not adequately describe the experience of parishioners in that county. Acknowledgements I am grateful to Dr Craig D’Alton for his constant support and guidance as my supervisor. Thanks to Dr Dolly Mackinnon for introducing me to historical soundscapes with enthusiasm. Thanks also to the members of the Medieval Early Modern History Cohort for acting as a sounding board for ideas and for their assistance in transcribing the manuscripts in palaeography workshops. I wish to acknowledge the valuable assistance of various Shropshire and Staffordshire clergy, the staff of the Lichfield Heritage Centre and Lichfield Cathedral for permission to photograph churches and church plate. Thanks also to the Victoria & Albert Museum for access to their textiles collection. The staff at the Shropshire Archives, Shrewsbury were very helpful, as were the staff of the State Library of Victoria who retrieved all the volumes of the Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society. I very much appreciate the ongoing support and love of my family. -
