NDAS Newsletter 2 Maureen Wood We have been very sad to learn of the death of Maureen Wood who has been a member of NDAS for a good 30 years and has served for many years as a committee member. In the 1970s Maureen served on the Barnstaple and North Devon Rescue Archaeology Committee and was involved in the digs in Green Lane, Paiges Lane, Potters Lane and Tully Street. For the Society she has represented continuity and a valuable link with those early days of North Devon archaeology. In recent years Maureen has been associated with the Barnstaple Heritage Centre and her interest in Barnstaple’s history has led her to produce books on Barnstaple Fair, the Pannier Market and the railway. She was a delightful lady who will be missed by her family and friends to whom we extend our sympathy. She will of course be greatly missed by this society and as an expression of our appreciation a contribution of £25 has been sent to the Heritage Centre. Members wishing to commemorate Maureen with their own donation should send this to Barnstaple Heritage Centre, Queen Anne’s Building, The Strand, Barnstaple.

    ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION AT HARTLAND, DEVON EXPLORING ARCHAEOLOGY PROJECT MARCH 2009 A Report for The Hartland Society ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION AT HARTAND, DEVON By Penny Cunningham PhD With contributions by Stephen Hobbs, David Miller, Tim Robinson, Catherine Griffiths and Henrietta Quinnell March 2009 2 Acknowledgements Thanks are due to Sir Hugh and Lady Stucley for giving permission to conduct geophysical surveys and an evaluation excavation and to the tenant farmers Mr and Mrs Davey. The Warren is also under the Countryside Stewardship Scheme and additional thanks go to Simon Tame of Natural England for giving permission to conduct the evaluation excavation. A big thanks is also due to Stephen and Liz Hobbs for all the help in organising the geophysical surveys, excavation and volunteers. Without their support and enthusiasm none of this work would have been possible. The geophysical survey was undertaken by a number of people and thanks are due to Sean Hawken and David Miller. Thanks are also due to additional geophysical surveying undertaken by David Miller and Tim Robinson (Hartland Abbey). The excavation benefited from the hard work of a large number of people, in particular, Sam Walls, Wendy Howard, and Becky Miller who all worked tirelessly to ensure a high standard was maintained throughout the excavation. Alison Mills from Barnstaple Museum gave advice and support during the excavation and also provided help with the school activities. Thanks also go to Bill Horner and Francis Griffiths for all their sound advice during the planning stage. Jonathan Bray, Simon Hogg, Peter Jones, Dean McMullen, Harry West-Taylor and Fiona Reading helped with the post excavation work, especially with the illustrations.

  • Northern Devon in the Domesday Book
    NORTHERN DEVON IN THE DOMESDAY BOOK INTRODUCTION The existence of the Domesday Book has been a source of national pride since the first antiquarians started to write about it perhaps four hundred years ago. However, it was not really studied until the late nineteenth century when the legal historian, F W Maitland, showed how one could begin to understand English society at around the time of the Norman Conquest through a close reading and analysis of the Domesday Book (Maitland 1897, 1987). The Victoria County Histories from the early part of the twentieth century took on the task of county-wide analysis, although the series as a whole ran out of momentum long before many counties, Devon included, had been covered. Systematic analysis of the data within the Domesday Book was undertaken by H C Darby of University College London and Cambridge University, assisted by a research team during the 1950s and 1960s. Darby(1953), in a classic paper on the methodology of historical geography, suggested that two great fixed dates for English rural history were 1086, with Domesday Book, and circa 1840, when there was one of the first more comprehensive censuses and the detailed listings of land-use and land ownership in the Tithe Survey of 1836-1846. The anniversary of Domesday Book in 1986 saw a further flurry of research into what Domesday Book really was, what it meant at the time and how it was produced. It might be a slight over-statement but in the early-1980s there was a clear consensus about Domesday Book and its purpose but since then questions have been raised and although signs of a new shared understanding can be again be seen, it seems unlikely that Domesday Book will ever again be taken as self-evident.

  • BLACKPOOL MILL COTTAGE Brochure 2015
    BLACKPOOL MILL COTTAGE The 15th century cottage is situated in a beautiful valley, a stone’s throw away from a remote Atlantic cove. It sleeps 8 people but is equally suitable for 2. A private drive leading from Hartland Abbey through woodland, carpeted in snowdrops and bluebells in spring, quite suddenly opens out to reveal a view of the cliffs and the sea, with the cottage beside the Abbey stream. Its unique position makes it a wonderful place to relax, enjoy the natural surroundings, and escape from the pressures of modern living. It is a children’s paradise. In 2005 the cottage was the film location for Rosamunde Pilcher’s ‘The Shell Seekers’ with Vanessa Redgrave and Maximillian Schell. In May 2007 the BBC filmed Andrew Davies’s stunning adaptation of Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility here, with Janet McTeer and Mark Williams leading a cast of Hattie Morahan, Charity Wakefield, Dan Stevens, David Morrisey and Dominic Cooper. The cottage starred as ‘Barton Cottage’, home to the Dashwood family when they fell on hard times. The beach, with its rock pools, sand at low tide and unique cliff formation is always interesting in all weathers and at low tide prawns, mussels, limpets, star fish, crabs, lobsters and fish are to be found in the pools which are also wonderful natural paddling pools for children. The sea is very clean and excellent for bathing and surfing, in the right conditions. In good weather evening barbecuing on the beach with the sun setting over the sea is magical. The only light to be seen is from the lighthouse on Lundy Island.
