The cloth towns of Bradford-on-Avon, Trowbridge and Westbury were thriving when John Leland visited in 1540; but GD Ramsay thought they had passed their golden age by 1550 and declined during the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Joan Thirsk – following the precedent of John Aubrey, who wrote a survey of north Wiltshire in the 1660s – characterised the region as ‘cheese country’. Based on new archival research, this thesis argues that, far from declining, cloth manufacture in west Wiltshire grew throughout the Tudor era and remained strong under the early Stuarts; that production of this crucial trade commodity gave the region national significance; and that profits from the woollen trade were the main drivers of change in west Wiltshire over the period 1530-1680.

  • The History of the Brinkworth Circuit
    VICTORY IN THE VILLAGES THE HISTORY OF THE RINKWORTH CIRCUIT : Victory in the Villages: THE HISTORY OF THE BRINKWORTH CIRCUIT Rev. William C. Tonks (The Superintendent, for the time being, of the Brinhworth Circuit). WITH FIFTEEN FULL PAGE ILLUSTRATIONS. ABERDARE PRINTED BY WILLIAM WILCOX, 17 CARDIFF STREET. I907 IN GRATITUDE The Sunday School Teachers of The Village Churches of Burntwood and Chase Terrace, In the Lichfield Circuit ; and to those of Mexborough, in Yorkshire, Who led the Writer into the Life that is in Christ, This Book is Dedicated. PREFACE. sending forth this book, I have hope that it will be of In use to the young people of Primitive Methodism in the Brinkworth and Swindon District. It will also give pleasure, I trust, to those still remaining who have fought the battles and rejoiced in the victories here recorded or suggested. Particularly do I desire that the book will form a text-book, that shall be used as a basis for fuller information which the veterans can give to the recruits. It was written to place on record some things worth re- membering, that were likely soon to be forgotten. I hope the book will be found permanently valuable for its chronological details and illustrated pages. I have to thank many friends for placing so readily at my disposal old magazines, photographs, and personal remin- iscences. The photographs of the chapels, and those of Messrs S. Riddick, C. Maslin, J. Sweeper, E. L. Gardner, Rev. T. Smith and myself have been done freely by Mr. J. Riddick, of Wootton Bassett, and have materially added to the interest of the book.
