Abolishing the Crime of Public Nuisance and Modernising That of Public Indecency

E-mail: [email protected] Received: November 20, 2016 Accepted: February 19, 2017 Online Published: March 7, 2017 doi:10.5539/ilr.v6n1p1 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/ilr.v6n1p1 1. INTRODUCTION Prior articles have asserted that English criminal law is very fragmented and that a considerable amount of the older law - especially the common law - is badly out of date.1 The purpose of this article is to consider the crime of public nuisance (also called common nuisance), a common law crime. The word 'nuisance' derives from the old french 'nuisance' or 'nusance' 2 and the latin, nocumentum.3 The basic meaning of the word is that of 'annoyance';4 In medieval English, the word 'common' comes from the word 'commune' which, itself, derives from the latin 'communa' - being a commonality, a group of people, a corporation.5 In 1191, the City of London (the 'City') became a commune. Thereafter, it is usual to find references with that term - such as common carrier, common highway, common council, common scold, common prostitute etc;6 The reference to 'common' designated things available to the general public as opposed to the individual. For example, the common carrier, common farrier and common innkeeper exercised a public employment and not just a private one. -
The Weight of Comparing in Medieval England
The Weight of Comparing in Medieval England David Gary Shaw Abstract1 How important and common were the practices of comparing in medieval England (1150- 1500)? Focusing on activities that tended to have a pragmatic rather than purely logical in- tention, this chapter first considers medieval comparing on technical matters such as weigh- ing and measuring for the market and for agricultural efficiency. Then, however, we consider as well the more controversial comparing of humans by examining its place in taxing and ranking people; in assessing religious diversity; and even discerning the moralizing uses of comparing in literature and art. As it turns out, comparing could be perilous when humans were the subjects. Introduction It is possible that comparison might be everywhere in history, but we might also suppose that comparing might matter less in some moments and places than oth- ers. Especially given the sense that there is something distinctive and powerful about comparison in contemporary life, it is important to try to get a sense for the range, variety, and importance of modes of comparison in other times and places. In this chapter, I inquire into the place and weight of comparative thinking in Eng- land in the later medieval period. It is not an easy task, because the definition of the comparative and of com- parative practices is hardly settled. There is probably some amount of comparative activity in all European societies and moments, but we can expect that the compo- sition of the comparative practices will vary and maybe vary significantly; and that will raise problems for making any longer-term narratives. -

I suppose the archbishop can be granted on the grounds of poetic licence but a duke of Monmouth (e.g. p. 34 7) does have me a little worried as a medievalist and not by the anachronistic pre-echo of the title of Charles II's bastard. On a simple fact of historical accuracy, I should point out that whereas the title was known on the continent - duke ofNormandy, duke of Saxony, duke of Brittany etc - up to 1337 the title of' 'duke' was unknown among English aristocratic nomenclature. The first award was to Edward III's eldest son (the Black Prince) as 'duke' of Cornwall (hitherto the duchy had been an earldom). The second ducal title was to Henry Grosmont elevated as 'Duke of Lancaster' in 1361. He too was of royal blood being in the direct male descent from Henry III's son Edmund Crouchback. His father the second earl of course lost his head after his defeat at the battle of Boroughbridge. -

ENGLISH INDUSTRIES OF THE MIDDLE AGES Being an Introduction to the Industrial History of Medieval England BY L. F. SALZMANN B.A. F.S.A. AUTHOR OF 'MEDIEVAL BYWAYS' LONDON CONSTABLE AND COMPANY LTD. 1913 184 INDUSTRIES OF THE MIDDLE AGES CHAPTER X BREWING—ALE, BEER, CIDER Malt liquors have been from time immemorial the national drink of England, but the ale of medieval times was quite different from the liquor which now passes indifferently under the names ale or beer. It was more of a sweet wort, of about the consistency of barley water. Andrew Borde,1 writing in the ' first half of the sixteenth century, says : Ale is made of malte and water ; and they the which do put any other thynge to ale than is rehersed, except yest, barme or godesgood, doth sofysticat theyr ale. Ale for an Englysshe man is a naturall drynke. Ale must have these propertyes : it muste be fresshe and cleare, it muste not be ropy nor smoky, nor must it have no weft nor tayle. Ale should not be dronke under v dayes olde. Newe ale is unholsome for all men. And sowre ale, and dead ale the which doth stand a tylt, is good for no man. Barly malte maketh better ale then oten malte or any other corne doth : it doth ingendre grose humoures ; but yette it maketh a man stronge.' 1 A Dyetary of Helth (E. E. T. S.), 256. BREWING— ALE, BEER, CIDER 185 The supremacy of English ale was already estab lished by the middle of the twelfth century, that of Canterbury being particularly famous,1 and casks of ale were amongst the presents taken by Becket to the French court on the occasion of his embassy in 1157.2 At this time it really deserved the title ' ' of the people's food in liquid form ; the consump tion per head of population must have been enor mous, the ordinary monastic corrody, or allowance of food, stipulating for a gallon of good ale a day, with very often a second gallon of weak ale. -

The Assize of Bread Robertson
http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society ( 321 ) THE ASSIZE OF BREAD. OUE remote ancestors had an admirable method of protecting the interests of the public, which may not perhaps commend itself to the commercial world in these vaunted days of free- trade. Domesday-book informs us that in the reign of Edward the Confessor, brewers of bad beer, in the city of Chester, were condemned to stand in the tumbrU or dung- cart. The same punishment was awarded to them in a Statute passed in 51 Henry III, which assigned the disgrace of standing in the pUlory, to those bakers who fraudulently broke the assize of bread.* An early enactment compelled London bakers to make loaves of such sizes and weights as could be sold at either four for a penny, or two for a penny, and forbad them to charge three farthings, or one penny, or five farthings, for any one loaf .f The rule was relaxed respecting penny loaves, so that bread of that price could be made, but the half- peny and farthing loaves still remained the staple com- modities during the Middle Ages. Mr. Humphry Wickham, of Strood, has communicated to us the contents of a mediseval roU, 5 feet 9 inches long, which he obtained in Eochester, containing an elaborate set of tables, whereby the bakers of bread were bound to regulate the weight of their loaves. Since the price of each loaf was fixed by law, its weight naturaEy varied, as wheat rose or fell in value. -

Originally the players were picked for the Greater Manchester Walking Football League over 60s representative side. However, with few walking football leagues around at the time, limited fixtures would represent a problem. The history of the GMWFL can be found HERE. It was decided that the players who had come forward would form a new walking football club to enter over 60s and over 65s tournaments that were increasing in number over the country. -

Saving Manchester’s Industrial Past: Regeneration and New Uses of Industrial Archaeology Structures in Greater Manchester, 1980 to 2018 Dr Michael Nevell Accepted text, March 2019 Summary & Introduction 2020 marks the 40th anniversary of the establishment of professional archaeology within the Manchester city region, with the creation of the Greater Manchester Archaeological Unit (GMAU) in 1980. This was the culmination of a decade of raising awareness of the archaeology and heritage of the Manchester city region. It saw the establishment of dedicated conservation officers in each of the ten new metropolitan boroughs of Greater Manchester (established in the local government re-organisation of 1974), a growth in the number of conservation areas and a significant rise in the number of historic buildings protected through the listing process, on the back of changes to the listing process in 1970.
