  • Records Indexes Tithe Apportionment and Plans Handlist
    Records Service Records Indexes Tithe Apportionment and Plans handlist The Tithe Commutation Act of 1836 replaced the ancient system of payment of tithes in kind with monetary payments. As part of the valuation process which was undertaken by the Tithe Commissioners a series of surveys were carried out, part of the results of which are the Tithe Maps and Apportionments. An Apportionment is the principal record of the commutation of tithes in a parish or area. Strictly speaking the apportionment and map together constitute a single document, but have been separated to facilitate use and storage. The standard form of an Apportionment contains columns for the name(s) of the landowners and occupier(s); the numbers, acreage, name or description, and state of cultivation of each tithe area; the amount of rent charge payable, and the name(s) of the tithe-owner(s). Tithe maps vary greatly in scale, accuracy and size. The initial intent was to produce maps of the highest possible quality, but the expense (incurred by the landowners) led to the provision that the accuracy of the maps would be testified to by the seal of the commissioners, and only maps of suitable quality would be so sealed. In the end, about one sixth of the maps had seals. A map was produced for each "tithe district", that is, one region in which tithes were paid as a unit. These were often distinct from parishes or townships. Areas in which tithes had already been commutated were not mapped, so that coverage varied widely from county to county.

  • Asset Mapping Including Report Fote Malvern 2020
    Asset Mapping Asset mapping is a widely used approach, based on the assumption that every community has a range of assets, relationships, and networks that are of great value. By bringing local stakeholders together, the approach enables the community to become aware of the assets it has that relate to a particular focus. It highlights how these can be utilised for the greater good. We have been re-visiting the attached Mapping Assets for People Living with Dementia in Malvern Report (Evans & Brooker, 2020) in the light of Meeting Centre developments in the UK. This provides a report of an Asset Mapping exercise that was undertaken in the Worcestershire town of Malvern. This work was commissioned by a national Charity called Friends of the Elderly (FoTE) who operate several care services for those affected by dementia in Malvern. We believe that this document would be of great value for people wanting to set up Meeting Centres, and indeed other community-based interventions and activities. The non-deficit approach has great synergy with the Meeting Centre community engagement process and could be enormously useful for communities to participate in. It would reveal gaps in provision and where there was overlap. The approach works well with those wanting to establish common ground. Evans, S.C.E. & Brooker, D.
