Through a detailed analysis of the town’s shipping patterns it provides new information and data about the patterns of Southampton’s maritime trade. The development of a database, for the first time quantifying the shipping information published in the Hampshire Chronicle, offers evidence of a complex and wide ranging trade network, which included Southampton’s neighbouring ports. The data analysis carried out for this project shows that, rather than merely a bilateral relationship with London, Britain’s overwhelmingly largest port, Southampton’s maritime trade was multifaceted, with goods imported to the port from domestic and foreign locations and transhipped to other destinations both near and far. The port saw just a small number of regular traders and most vessels called only occasionally, indicating that for many vessels Southampton served as an intermediate stop on longer journeys rather than the main destination. Southampton’s close connections with the Channel Islands were particularly important and there is evidence that the inhabitants of the islands depended on the cargoes shipped from Southampton for their daily lives. The analysis of the Hampshire Chronicle demonstrates how the wars of the late eighteenth century had an impact on the maritime trade of Southampton and on the daily lives of its inhabitants, offering opportunities for increased profits, particularly for shipowners, but also threats to both ships and seafarers. i Southampton’s Maritime Trade in the Late Eighteenth Century TABLE OF CONTENTS Table of

    The Huguenot Society of Great Britain and Ireland Founded 1885 Registered Charity No. 214726 A DIRECTORY OF HUGUENOT REFUGEES ON THE CHANNEL ISLANDS 1548-1825 Edited by Robert Nash (Huguenot Society Quarto Series 63) Despite their small size, the Channel Islands (Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney and Sark) played an important role, both as a refuge and as temporary staging posts, for refugees fleeing France. Furthermore, the modified form of francophone Anglicanism which emerged on the islands formed a model for the conformist French churches in England and Ireland. This volume (the first general study of this particular topic) lists the details of several thousand refugee individuals, taken from island sources (wills, records of reconnaissances and abjurations, parish records of baptisms, marriages and burials), English records (Royal Bounty charity, archives of the French Hospital etc.), and sources in France. The volume tackles the difficult task of separating Huguenot refugees from native Channel Islanders (who were also French-speaking and Protestant) and cites documentary evidence for identifying the refugees. The detailed introduction examines the questions of who the refugees were, where they came from, how they escaped, when they arrived on the islands, whether they stayed or moved on, and how much they intermarried with the native islanders. There are clear and detailed maps showing the islands’ locations, the island parishes, and French provinces. ------------------------------------ -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  • The Dr. Alister Mackenzie Chronology (2018)
    The Dr. Alister MacKenzie Chronology th The 20 Revision October 2018 The MacKenzie Chronology Project The Project In the late 1990’s Nick Leefe and Bob Beck launched an effort to document the physical presence and movements of the great architect Dr. Alister MacKenzie. That effort sparked club secretaries, historians, architects, professional writers, enthusiasts – in short, a global community of MacKenzie admirers – to share their knowledge. This, the 20th Revision of “The Dr. Alister MacKenzie Chronology,” is the latest product of that collective and continuing generosity, and once again expands upon the previous revision. Why are MacKenzie’s whereabouts important? A timeline establishes a foundation of fact. Upon this foundation researchers can build their narratives of history. Without this fact base, large gaps in time appear, and speculation is the all too-common and unfortunate result - the quality of scholarship is impoverished. The ramifications can be significant - original design features and perhaps entire courses disappear or suffer disfiguration, writings are misunderstood or misinterpreted, attributions are missed or made improperly. As readers, as golfers, and as caretakers of the game of golf, we suffer.

  • The Sovereignty of the Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories in the Brexit Era
    Island Studies Journal, 15(1), 2020, 151-168 The sovereignty of the Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories in the Brexit era Maria Mut Bosque School of Law, Universitat Internacional de Catalunya, Spain MINECO DER 2017-86138, Ministry of Economic Affairs & Digital Transformation, Spain Institute of Commonwealth Studies, University of London, UK [email protected] (corresponding author) Abstract: This paper focuses on an analysis of the sovereignty of two territorial entities that have unique relations with the United Kingdom: the Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories (BOTs). Each of these entities includes very different territories, with different legal statuses and varying forms of self-administration and constitutional linkages with the UK. However, they also share similarities and challenges that enable an analysis of these territories as a complete set. The incomplete sovereignty of the Crown Dependencies and BOTs has entailed that all these territories (except Gibraltar) have not been allowed to participate in the 2016 Brexit referendum or in the withdrawal negotiations with the EU. Moreover, it is reasonable to assume that Brexit is not an exceptional situation. In the future there will be more and more relevant international issues for these territories which will remain outside of their direct control, but will have a direct impact on them. Thus, if no adjustments are made to their statuses, these territories will have to keep trusting that the UK will be able to represent their interests at the same level as its own interests.

  • Hampshire and the Company of White Paper Makers
    HAMPSHIRE AND THE COMPANY OF WHITE PAPER MAKERS By J. H. THOMAS, B.A. HAMPSHIRE has long been associated with the manufacturing of writing materials, parchment being made at Andover, in the north of the county, as early as the 13th century.1 Not until some four centuries later, however, did Hampshire embark upon the making of paper, with Sir Thomas Neale (1565-1620/1) financing the construction of the one-vat mill at Warnford, in the Meon Valley, about the year 1618. As far as natural requirements were concerned, Hampshire was well-endowed for the making of paper. Clear, swift chalk-based streams ensured a steady supply of water, for use both as motive power and in the actual process of production. Rags, old ropes and sails provided the raw materials for conversion into paper, while labour was to be found in the predominantly rural population. The amount of capital required varied depend­ ing on the size of the mill concerned, and whether it was a conversion of existing plant, as happened at Bramshott during the years 1640-90, or whether the mill was an entirely new construction as was the case at Warnford and, so far as is known, the case with Frog Mill at nearby Curdridge. Nevertheless Hampshire, like other paper-making counties, was subject to certain restraining factors. A very harsh winter, freezing the water supply, would lead to a cut-back in production. A shortage of materials and the occurrence of Holy days would have a similar result, so that in 1700 contemporaries reckoned on an average working year of roughly 200 days.2 Serious outbreaks of plague would also hamper production, the paper-makers of Suffolk falling on hard times for this reason in 1638.3 Though Hampshire had only one paper mill in 1620, she possessed a total of ten by 1700,4 and with one exception all were engaged in the making of brown paper.

  • The Cultural and Ideological Significance of Representations of Boudica During the Reigns of Elizabeth I and James I
    EXETER UNIVERSITY AND UNIVERSITÉ D’ORLÉANS The Cultural and Ideological Significance Of Representations of Boudica During the reigns of Elizabeth I and James I. Submitted by Samantha FRENEE-HUTCHINS to the universities of Exeter and Orléans as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, June 2009. This thesis is available for library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgment. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ..................................... (signature) 2 Abstract in English: This study follows the trail of Boudica from her rediscovery in Classical texts by the humanist scholars of the fifteenth century to her didactic and nationalist representations by Italian, English, Welsh and Scottish historians such as Polydore Virgil, Hector Boece, Humphrey Llwyd, Raphael Holinshed, John Stow, William Camden, John Speed and Edmund Bolton. In the literary domain her story was appropriated under Elizabeth I and James I by poets and playwrights who included James Aske, Edmund Spenser, Ben Jonson, William Shakespeare, A. Gent and John Fletcher. As a political, religious and military figure in the middle of the first century AD this Celtic and regional queen of Norfolk is placed at the beginning of British history. In a gesture of revenge and despair she had united a great number of British tribes and opposed the Roman Empire in a tragic effort to obtain liberty for her family and her people.

A Hampton Bays Montauk Highway Corridor (Hamlet Centers) Study is anticipated to commence in the near future. A review of Hampton Bays history and an inventory of hamlet heritage resources is considered a necessary component in order to help insure orderly and coordinated development within the Hamlet of Hampton Bays in a manner that respects community character. Hampton Bays United, a consortium of community organizations, spearheaded the initiative to complete a historical profile for Hampton Bays and a survey of hamlet heritage re- sources. The 2000 Hampton Bays Hamlet Center Strategy Plan adopted as an update to the 1999 Comprehensive Plan was limited to an area from the railroad bridge tres- tle on Montauk Highway near West Tiana Road (westerly border) to the Montauk Highway railroad bridge near Bittersweet Avenue (easterly border.) Shortly, the De- partment of Land Management will be preparing a “Hampton Bays Montauk High- way Corridor Land Use/Transportation Strategy Study” which will span the entire length of Montauk Highway from Jones Road to the Shinnecock Canal.

The Channel Islands (Jersey and Guernsey) are reconstructed separately, as their Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) equivalent waters are outside of the UK’s EEZ. Publically available reported landings data from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) are used as a baseline for the reconstruction. Estimates of discarded, recreational and unreported catch are used from peer-reviewed and grey literature as well as government reports to reconstruct the fisheries of the UK. The UK’s total reconstructed catch including England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man is 35% higher than the reported landings for the same entities.

Due to its location at the head of Southampton Water, into which the rivers Test and, adjacent to the docks, the Itchen flow, it is well sheltered and being approximately mid-way along the English Channel, the port also uniquely experiences a daily double high tide leading to prolonged periods of high water, thus greatly facilitating the movement of large ships at all states of the tide.
