  • Ancient Origins of Lordship
    THE ANCIENT ORIGINS OF THE LORDSHIP OF BOWLAND Speculation on Anglo-Saxon, Anglo-Norse and Brythonic roots William Bowland The standard history of the lordship of Bowland begins with Domesday. Roger de Poitou, younger son of one of William the Conqueror’s closest associates, Roger de Montgomery, Earl of Shrewsbury, is recorded in 1086 as tenant-in-chief of the thirteen manors of Bowland: Gretlintone (Grindleton, then caput manor), Slatebourne (Slaidburn), Neutone (Newton), Bradeforde (West Bradford), Widitun (Waddington), Radun (Radholme), Bogeuurde (Barge Ford), Mitune (Great Mitton), Esingtune (Lower Easington), Sotelie (Sawley?), Hamereton (Hammerton), Badresbi (Battersby/Dunnow), Baschelf (Bashall Eaves). William Rufus It was from these holdings that the Forest and Liberty of Bowland emerged sometime after 1087. Further lands were granted to Poitou by William Rufus, either to reward him for his role in defeating the army of Scots king Malcolm III in 1091-2 or possibly as a consequence of the confiscation of lands from Robert de Mowbray, Earl of Northumbria in 1095. 1 As a result, by the first decade of the twelfth century, the Forest and Liberty of Bowland, along with the adjacent fee of Blackburnshire and holdings in Hornby and Amounderness, had been brought together to form the basis of what became known as the Honor of Clitheroe. Over the next two centuries, the lordship of Bowland followed the same descent as the Honor, ultimately reverting to the Crown in 1399. This account is one familiar to students of Bowland history. However, research into the pattern of land holdings prior to the Norman Conquest is now beginning to uncover origins for the lordship that predate Poitou’s lordship by many centuries.

  • 1868 Drought
    THE EMERGENCY WATER SUPPLY FOR PRESTON 1868 PUMPING FROM THE RIVER HQDDER DROUGHT AT DQEFORD BRIDGE In 1953 Preston's Water Engineer, Mr Oakes, produced an excellent booklet called "Water Supplies through Three Centuries". He described how, as Preston expanded and the wells and springs within the town became inadequate, it looked towards the hills. The first reservoir was made about 1832 near Gammull Lane, then the Grimsargh reservoirs about 1835 and the first of the reservoirs near Longridge about 1840. For 25 years, between 1850 and 1875, Preston obtained much of its water supply directly from the River Loud near the Derby Arms. "The Loud water was hard and grossly polluted" and there was not much of it in dry weather. The Stonyhurst records for 1868 show that there was very little rain in May, June and July. By August, Preston's reservoirs were dry. The urgent need to maintain a supply of water to the town demanded a quick solution. Pumping from the Ribble was considered but analysis showed that the water was quite unfit for domestic purposes. Hodder water proved to be ideal, and arrangements were made by the end of August to obtain it. The ingenious emergency measures, to raise water 120 feet above the river Hodder and run it more than a mile to the existing Longridge Fell catchment area reflect great credit on all concerned. Mr Dakes wrote that water was pumped continuously from 27th August to the end of October. On Thursday September 10th the emergency pumping scheme was inspected by a deputation from Preston Corporation who left Winckley Square, pulled by five horses.
