This was a new technology that had reached Western Europe by the early fourteenth century, which had first supplemented and later supplanted traditional forms of artillery. The development of early firearms has long been recognised as significant by historians and has been identified as a key part of the military revolution hypothesis. As a result of this, gunpowder weapons are often discussed in general works on English military history but there is at the moment no satisfactory study on its long-term development in England. The aim of the present study is to rectify this gap in the literature by carrying out a thorough examination and comparison of the extensive surviving financial records for the English Crown and towns for the period covering the reigns of Edward III to Henry VII. This information will be analysed to determine how the use of guns on military campaigns, in towns, royal fortifications and on ships changed over time, as well as to assess what factors influenced the development of gunpowder weapons and to see if these changes constituted a military revolution. As a result of this research, it is now possible to establish a comprehensive narrative of how English gunpowder weapons developed throughout this critical period in the history of the technology. iii Contents Author’s Declaration vi Acknowledgements vii Definitions viii Abbreviations ix Introduction 1 Part One Chapter 1 – Royal Guns on Land 21 Chapter 2 – Expeditions Case Study 53 Chapter 3 – English Royal Ships 70 Chapter 4 – Calais Garrison 87 Chapter 5 – Royal Castles and Guns 113 Part Two Chapter 6 – Towns 123 Chapter 7 – Southampton Case Study 145 Part Three Chapter 8 – Analysis of Guns 157 Conclusion 170 Appendix A – Tables 176 Appendix B – Line Charts 190 Appendix C – Column Charts 193 Appendix D – Stacked Charts 196 Appendix E – Area Charts 200 Appendix F – Pie Charts 201 Appendix G – Extracts from Original Accounts 210 Appendix H – Gun Categories 220 Glossary 247 Bibliography 250 List of Maps and Figures Map 1 – The Marches or Pale of Calais x Map 2 -

  • Dartmouth Conservation Area Appraisal
    Dartmouth Conservation Area Appraisal Conservation Areas are usually located in the older parts of our towns and villages. They are places whose surviving historic, architectural and locally distinctive features make them special. Conservation area designation highlights the need to preserve and reinforce these qualities. The policies followed by the District Council when assessing proposals affecting conservation areas are set out in the South Hams Local Development Framework, while the Supplementary Planning Document ‘New Work in Conservation Areas’ explains how to achieve compliance with them. This is essential because the Council has a statutory duty to approve proposals only if they “preserve or enhance the character or appearance” of the conservation area. The purpose of this appraisal is to set out what makes the Dartmouth Conservation Area special, what needs to be conserved and what needs to be improved. Four extensions to the conservation area are proposed and described The contents are based on an earlier draft Conservation Area Appraisal prepared for the District Council in 1999. January 2013 Dartmouth Dartmouth Conservation Area: Summary of Special Interest The position of Dartmouth at the mouth of the river Dart is of such strategic military and commercial importance, and its sheltered natural harbour so perfect, that it developed into an important town from the Middle Ages on, despite being inaccessible to wheeled transport until the 19th century. The advent of Victoria Road, Newcomen Road and later, College Way may have changed all that, but much of the character of the ancient, pedestrian town has survived. While it addresses the water, Dartmouth is a town of intimate spaces, unexpected flights of steps or pathways and steep, narrow streets with architectural jewels like St Saviours Church or the houses of the Butterwalk set amongst them.

  • Read the Waterton Section Contained in This Book (Pdf)
    The History and Topography of the Isle of Axholme ... Lincolnshire Rev. William Brocklehurst Stonehouse, M.A.,1st January 1839 Overtown Miscellany (overtown.org.uk) WATERTON is mentioned in Doomsday Book, as having a hall and one carucate of land, the property of Fulcheri; and it is also stated that, at the time of making the survey, it was waste. Together with all the wastes in the soke of Croule, it became, [p.446] became soon after the Conquest, the property of the Abbot of Selby; and, between the years 1160 and 1179, when Gilbert was Abbot of that monastery, it was called a vil, and given by him to Reiner, the son of Norman de Normanby, he paying the yearly rent of twelve shillings on the Feast of the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary(1). What equivalent was given for this grant does not appear; nor has any other notice of this Reiner been found. Waterton remained in this family for many generations, and seems to have been, like High Melwood and High Burnham, what Hunter terms, in his History of the Deanery of Doncaster, "a Gentlehomery, having peculiar privileges and jurisdiction." Like these places, however, it is now degraded into a common farm house. The present owner is Sir John Webb. Reiner took the name of Waterton. This family is equal, if not superior, in a long line of ancestry, to most of the commoners of England : for there is strong reason to suppose that they were of Saxon origin. It appears, in the survey made by the Conqueror, in 1086, that one Liyulf held lands in Normanebi, in the North Riding of Yorkshire; that Norman had lands in Newuetone; and amongst the clamores, or claims, noticed in the same survey, it is stated, that Norman de Andreci claimed three oxgangs of land in Normanbi.

    Late-Medieval France: A Nation under Construction A study of French national identity formation and the emerging of national consciousness, before and during the Hundred Years War, 1200-1453 Job van den Broek MA History of Politics and Society Dr. Christian Wicke Utrecht University 22 June 2020 Word count: 13.738 2 “Ah! Doulce France! Amie, je te lairay briefment”1 -Attributed to Bertrand du Guesclin, 1380 Images on front page: The kings of France, England, Navarre and the duke of Burgundy (as Count of Charolais), as depicted in the Grand Armorial Équestre de la Toison d’Or, 1435- 1438. 1 Cuvelier in Charrière, volume 2, pp 320. ”Ah, sweet France, my friend, I must leave you very soon.” Translation my own. 2 3 Abstract Whether nations and nationalism are ancient or more recent phenomena is one of the core debates of nationalism studies. Since the 1980’s, modernism, claiming that nations are distinctively modern, has been the dominant view. In this thesis, I challenge this dominant view by doing an extensive case-study into late-medieval France, applying modernist definitions and approaches to a pre-modern era. France has by many regarded as one of the ‘founding fathers’ of the club of nations and has a long and rich history and thus makes a case-study for such an endeavour. I start with mapping the field of French identity formation in the thirteenth century, which mostly revolved around the royal court in Paris. With that established, I move on to the Hundred Years War and the consequences of this war for French identity.

  • The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets the Tower Was the Seat of Royal
    The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets The Tower was the seat of Royal power, in addition to being the Sovereign’s oldest palace, it was the holding prison for competitors and threats, and the custodian of the Sovereign’s monopoly of armed force until the consolidation of the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich in 1805. As such, the Tower Hamlets’ traditional provision of its citizens as a loyal garrison to the Tower was strategically significant, as its possession and protection influenced national history. Possession of the Tower conserved a foothold in the capital, even for a sovereign who had lost control of the City or Westminster. As such, the loyalty of the Constable and his garrison throughout the medieval, Tudor and Stuart eras was critical to a sovereign’s (and from 1642 to 1660, Parliament’s) power-base. The ancient Ossulstone Hundred of the County of Middlesex was that bordering the City to the north and east. With the expansion of the City in the later Medieval period, Ossulstone was divided into four divisions; the Tower Division, also known as Tower Hamlets. The Tower Hamlets were the military jurisdiction of the Constable of the Tower, separate from the lieutenancy powers of the remainder of Middlesex. Accordingly, the Tower Hamlets were sometimes referred to as a county-within-a-county. The Constable, with the ex- officio appointment of Lord Lieutenant of Tower Hamlets, held the right to call upon citizens of the Tower Hamlets to fulfil garrison guard duty at the Tower. Early references of the unique responsibility of the Tower Hamlets during the reign of Bloody Mary show that in 1554 the Privy Council ordered Sir Richard Southwell and Sir Arthur Darcye to muster the men of the Tower Hamlets "whiche owe their service to the Towre, and to give commaundement that they may be in aredynes for the defence of the same”1.

  • ASTRA MILITARUM SOLDIERS of the IMPERIUM These Datasheets Allow You to Fight Apocalypse Battles with Your Astra Militarum Miniatures
    ASTRA MILITARUM SOLDIERS OF THE IMPERIUM These datasheets allow you to fight Apocalypse battles with your Astra Militarum miniatures. Each datasheet includes the characteristics profiles of the unit it describes, as well as any wargear and special abilities it may have. KEYWORDS Throughout these datasheets you will come across the <Regiment> keyword. This is shorthand for a keyword of your choosing, as described below. <REGIMENT> Most Astra Militarum units are drawn from a regiment. Some datasheets specify which regiment the unit is drawn from (e.g. Mukaali Riders have the Tallarn keyword, so are drawn from the Tallarn Regiment), but where a datasheet does not, it will have the <Regiment> keyword. When you include such a unit in your army, you must nominate which regiment that unit is from. You then simply replace the <Regiment> keyword in every instance on that unit’s datasheet with the name of your chosen regiment. For example, if you were to include an Atlas Recovery Tank in your army, and you decided it was from Vostroya, its <Regiment> Faction keyword is changed to Vostroyan and its Recovery Vehicle ability would then read: ‘At the end of the Action phase, this unit can to repair one friendly Vostroyan Vehicle unit in base contact with it. If it does, remove one damage marker from that Vehicle unit. Only one attempt to repair each unit can be made each turn.’ ATLAS RECOVERY TANK 5 An Atlas Recovery Tank is a unit that contains 1 model.

  • Space Construction in Media Reporting a Study of the Migrant Space in the „Jungles‟ of Calais, Fast Capitalism 21.1
    Citation: Y.Ibrahim & Howarth, A. (2015) Space Construction in Media Reporting A study of the migrant space in the „jungles‟ of Calais, Fast Capitalism 21.1, http://www.fastcapitalism.com/ Space Construction in Media Reporting A study of the migrant space in the ‘jungles’ of Calais Yasmin Ibrahim, Queen Mary, University of London Anita Howarth, Brunel University London Introduction In September 2009, French riot police armed with flame-throwers, bulldozers and chain saws demolished an illegal migrant camp in Calais known locally as “the Jungle” and dispersed its occupants (Garnham 2009). Over two years the camp had grown from a handful of occupants in a few makeshift tents to over 800 in a sprawling shantytown spilling into the town of Calais (Rawstorne 2009). This article explores how British newspapers‟ use of the “jungle” metaphor constructed a particular social imaginary of migrant spaces and their informal camps at a time when migrant shelters were a focus of policy and public concern. The jungle metaphor signified a barbaric space characterised by environmental degradation and lawlessness that encroached on ordered spaces of white civility. This construct was used to justify the razing of the camp, the demolition of the shelters and the dispersing of its occupants by the French police. However, mini-camps sprung up almost immediately all along the French coastline (Allen 2009c) and newspapers expressed fears of the local community that these could grow into mini-jungles (Allen 2009b) – a fear realised a year later with the emergence and demolition of the “new jungle” in a small village near Dunkirk (Finan and Allen 2010) which was similarly demolished.

  • Alchemists, Pirates, and Pilgrims: Towards a Revised Model of English Knighthood in the Lancastrian Era
    Alchemists, Pirates, and Pilgrims: Towards a Revised Model of English Knighthood in the Lancastrian Era GILBERT BOGNER In the stained glass of Ashton parish church, Lancashire, may be seen the kneeling figure of Sir Thomas Ashton who died circa 1458. This fifteenth-century knight is gloriously depicted there adorned in a warrior’s full plate armour; around his neck he wears the Lancastrian ‘SS’ collar, given to loyal adherents of that regime. In spite of this rather conventional iconography, however, Sir Thomas was a very unconventional knight. For instead of pursuing a military or political career, as had his father and grandfather, Sir Thomas seems to have devoted himself to the arcane and mysterious science of alchemy, not a pursuit one normally associates with knighthood.1 In the generalisations of historians and in the popular imagination the medieval English knight is commonly presented in terms of military activities, estate management, and local administration and parliamentary service. One recent popular work, for example, introduces fifteenth-century English knights as primarily military men, yet allows that ‘many now preferred the lifestyle of the landowner, man-about-town and parliamentary representative’.2 There is of course no doubt that knights spent a great deal of time and energy engaged in these affairs, as evidenced by the sheer number of sources devoted to them, especially from the later medieval period. It is there, however, that descriptions of knighthood usually end. We are left with the impression that the life of the fifteenth-century English knight consisted of roughly equal measures of going to war, serving as an office-holder and commissioner, and maintaining a certain level of income through the defence and increase of landed estates.
