  • Beyond the Castle Gate: the Role of Royal Landscapes in Constructions of English Medieval Kingship and Queenship
    Beyond the Castle Gate: The Role of Royal Landscapes in Constructions of English Medieval Kingship and Queenship by 1 AMANDA RICHARDSON, Chichester Abstract2 This paper derives from the text of a Powerpoint presentation delivered at Würzburg on 20 February 2010 at the conference “Herrschaft und Burgenland-schaften – Fränkische und internationale Forschung im Vergleich”.3 It mainly concerns the royal deer parks and forests connected with castles, rather than the castles themselves, and aims to explore the role of those landscapes in the construction of kingship and queenship in late- medieval England. The paper employs case studies of English medieval queens – in particular Margaret of France (d. 1318), but also Eleanor of Provence (d. 1291), Eleanor of Castile (d. 1290), Isabella of France (d. 1358) and Margaret of Anjou (d. 1482) – whose properties included many castles, forest and parks. It will begin by briefly explaining the English medieval forest system, and by considering the ways in which Clarendon Forest and park (Wiltshire) functioned in advertising royal power from the late 13th to the mid 14th century. It ends by concluding that relationships between high-status gender and space – both interior and exterior – may not be as straightforward as scholars have sometimes assumed. 1 Dr Richardson is Senior Lecturer in Medieval and Early Modern History at the University of Chichester. She completed her doctorate, on the medieval forest, park and palace of Clarendon (Wiltshire) in 2003 and has written many articles on deer parks and forests. At present she is researching a monograph on the estates of the medieval queens of England, c.

Ideally suited for conversion back to one high status family home. The accommodation, over two storeys, currently provides for eight bedrooms, five reception rooms, four kitchens and five wet areas (bath/shower rooms). In excess of 3,200 square feet (300 square metres), all set within 0.6 acres (not verified) with two driveways, generous parking and detached garage.

I’d say that it was this lovely setting that originally attracted them, and it’s the reason I’ve stayed for over eight decades. The property is surrounded by National Trust land so the outlook will never be spoilt, and the views are really quite special. It’s leafy and green in every single direction, and we enjoy total and utter privacy.

    Edward JVinslow (0, V. 1606-11) King's Scholar and Printer BY GEORGE G. WOLKINS N 1950 it seems agreed the Mayflower voyage was im- I portant for two reasons: first, it carried out a project of separatists, acting from a new motive, but clinging to English ideas; and second, there was the signing of the compact.^ Any Pilgrim subject might lack a freshness for antiquarians; none the less, encouraged by our president's maxim, "No fact or surmise about the Pilgrims is negligible,"^ this is an essay to help supply missing links in the life of Edward Winslow before he appeared in Leyden. All the world knows the settlement at Plymouth sprang practically as a unit from Nottinghamshire Puritans who took refuge in Holland; it is not always recalled that Master Edward Winslow was originally from Worcestershire. All the accounts, so far as available, state dutifully that Winslow was born in Droitwich, October i8, 1595; but of his youth, of the years that lapsed between birth and emergence in Leyden in 1617, there has been a silence as impenetrable as the unsolved disappearance of Master Charley Ross. Nathaniel Morton in New-Englands Memoriall gave currency to a legend that Winslow, "travelling into the Low-Countreys, in his Journeys fell into acquaintance with > See Keith Feiling, A History of England, London, 1950, p. 634. » Samuel Eliot Morison in Mass.

Evans Professor of Rural Geography Department of Geography Institute of Science and the Environment University of Worcester Henwick Grove WORCESTER WR2 6AJ Contact: Tel: 01905 855187 Mobile: 07967 614048 Fax: 01905 855132 Email: [email protected] Final Revised Draft ‘The hand of man [sic] has fallen heavily on Worcestershire for the last 150 years and in the last thirty or so it has been heavy indeed … [the] landscape has been rudely shattered in recent times by intensive agriculture, changed farming needs and practices, vast increases in population and accompanying urban development, motorways and pollution’ (Green and Westwood, 1991, p.13). Of all Midlands counties, Worcestershire in particular has been subject to rapid land use change in the post-war period. The county occupies a highly accessible location within the urban hierarchy, with physical characteristics that have facilitated the ready adoption of new national and international policy-driven ideas about land use. This chapter explores some of the recent changes in land use that have occurred in Worcestershire and outlines their implications for the geographical distribution of flora. The focus is intentionally confined largely to the post- war period because Worcestershire has witnessed its most far-reaching set of land use changes during this time. Although brief reference to important historical processes is necessary to grasp fully the consequences of post-war change, events before this time are relatively well documented.
