  • Industrialising Communities: a Case Study of Elsecar Circa 1750-1870
    Industrialising Communities: A Case Study of Elsecar Circa 1750-1870 by Nigel Andrew Cavanagh A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of History March 2017 Abstract This thesis takes as its subject the village of Elsecar in Yorkshire. In the period circa 1750-1870 this small rural hamlet was developed by the local landowners, the Earls Fitzwilliam, into a thriving industrial village, with an economy based on the twin industries of coal-mining and iron-smelting. As a well-documented example of a rural/industrial complex, Elsecar offers the historian the opportunity to view in microcosm the processes of social and economic change as a consequence of industrialisation, issues of national significance in the context of late eighteenth and nineteenth century social history. Using the records of the Earls Fitzwilliam as its main research material, this thesis examines the social and economic aspects of industrialisation as they affected the village and, in particular, the ways in which they influenced the development of a specific village community during this period. In so doing, the thesis engages with ideas of social cohesion, identity, class, gender and their relationships to structures of power, authority and the environment. These issues illuminate the central themes of the thesis, which are the relationship between structures of authority, the agency of the villagers and the physical environment in creating the idea of community. In examining these issues, this thesis argues that community is a form of site-specific social identity, and that the development of the industrial community of Elsecar in the period 1750-1870 is the story of the emergence of a powerful sense of place and identity, rooted in the particular collective histories and experiences of the villagers.

  • South Yorkshire: a HISTORY of FLASH FLOODING
    South Yorkshire: A HISTORY OF FLASH FLOODING Introduction There is no agreed definition of a flash flood. For the purposes of this chronology and in line with the requirements of the SINATRA project to investigate ‘flooding from intense rainfall’, the following definition (Archer and Fowler 2016) is used: A flood resulting from intense short duration rainfall, usually convective, that exceeds drainage capacity in urban areas or infiltration capacity in rural areas and hence can flood land and property far from rivers. River response is rapid with possible near vertical wave fronts in river channels; river users and floodplain residents may be endangered by rapid rates of rise in river level which may be enhanced by failure of upstream structures or antecedent saturation of the catchment. Flash floods may cause serious erosion of hillsides and river channels and may carry heavy loads of floating debris and boulders which may be deposited in berms and terraces. The past focus on the history of flooding has been mainly with respect to flooding from the overflow of rivers and with respect to the peak level that these floods have achieved. The Chronology of British Hydrological Events provides a reasonably comprehensive record of such events throughout Great Britain. Over the last 60 years the river gauging network provides a detailed record of the occurrence of river flows and peak levels and flows are summarised in HiflowsUK. However there has been recent recognition that much flooding of property occurs from surface water flooding, often far from rivers. Locally intense rainfall causes severe flooding of property and land as water concentrates and finds pathways along roads and depressions in the landscape.
