In November Sharon Knights returned to the Council after a break. Sharon will represent Bridge Sollars parish it is so pleasing to have a Councillor at last to fill a seat that has been vacant for so many years. The boundary commission moved our parishes into the Stoney Street ward in May. The Parish Council were unaware of the changes until the election was announced. Steve Williams was elected our new ward Councillor. He attended the July Parish Council meeting and said he is willing to come out and meet any parishioner who has any issue or concerns within our parishes. A resident from Kenchester made a complaint to the Parish Council over how dangerous it had become when driving out of his property onto the A438, a site meeting was arranged with Balfour Beatty’s locality steward Linzy Outtrim. After the meeting a request was made to Herefordshire Council asking to extend the speed limit on the A438 out to Bunshill turn. The Parish Council considered various planning applications throughout the year from a underground calor gas tank in Canon Rise Bishopstone to a replacement fishing hut in Bridge Sollars and a Gypsy wagon in Byford both the latter to be used for glamping holidays. Work on the Neighbourhood Plan has continued throughout the year and we have now produced a document called Neighbourhood Development Plan Public Consultation Draft. This document will be sent to Herefordshire Planning department for their inspection. This is the start of a long consultation period including sending a copy to every household in the parishes. Thanks to Sue Hubbard who has been the driving force behind the plan and all the Councillors and parishioners on the steering group committee. This is the first year the Parish Council has used the lengthsman scheme I think it has been a great success. The parishes have benefited from regular monthly maintenance jobs including cutting back visibility angles at junctions, cutting around signs and keeping the grips and drain covers clear. The Parish Council used the lengthsman once over the winter in an emergency when a culvert blocked causing water to flood a property in Byford. In March to use up the remaining allocated money left in the scheme, the lengthsman hired a mini digger and cleared several lengths of blocked ditches in the various parishes. Two footpaths were cleared of undergrowth and a new kissing gate installed on a footpath in Byford. I am sorry to report our Clerk Rosemary Plant has resigned due to family health problems. I would personally like to thank Rosemary for the time she worked as our clerk over the last two years and for being very efficient in dealing with all the paperwork and setting a very high standard. We will have difficulty in replacing her. Thank you to all the Councillors for their work over the last year particularly the footpath officers and those who worked on the Neighbourhood Plan, and finally thanks to Penny Redshaw for editing the Parish Newsletter. John Macklin “A Brief History” by Russell Carrington Amazingly, between the Signal magazine covering Staunton-on-Wye and the surrounds, and the Bishopstone village magazine, this is my 50th article! So, I thought to mark the occasion it would be worth reflecting on

    “JUST AS THE PRIESTS HAVE THEIR WIVES”: PRIESTS AND CONCUBINES IN ENGLAND, 1375-1549 Janelle Werner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Judith M. Bennett Reader: Professor Stanley Chojnacki Reader: Professor Barbara J. Harris Reader: Cynthia B. Herrup Reader: Brett Whalen © 2009 Janelle Werner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JANELLE WERNER: “Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549 (Under the direction of Judith M. Bennett) This project – the first in-depth analysis of clerical concubinage in medieval England – examines cultural perceptions of clerical sexual misbehavior as well as the lived experiences of priests, concubines, and their children. Although much has been written on the imposition of priestly celibacy during the Gregorian Reform and on its rejection during the Reformation, the history of clerical concubinage between these two watersheds has remained largely unstudied. My analysis is based primarily on archival records from Hereford, a diocese in the West Midlands that incorporated both English- and Welsh-speaking parishes and combines the quantitative analysis of documentary evidence with a close reading of pastoral and popular literature. Drawing on an episcopal visitation from 1397, the act books of the consistory court, and bishops’ registers, I argue that clerical concubinage occurred as frequently in England as elsewhere in late medieval Europe and that priests and their concubines were, to some extent, socially and culturally accepted in late medieval England.

  • The Birds of Herefordshire 2015
    The Birds of Herefordshire 2015 Herefordshire Ornithological Club Annual Report Jackdaws and Hereford cattle at Much Marcle in March 2015 (Photo: Mick Colquhoun) Editorial This is the 65th annual report of the ‘Birds of Herefordshire’, the Herefordshire Ornithological Club’s (HOC) annual publication for 2015, which I hope you will enjoy reading. During the year a total of 172 species were recorded, summary details and highlights of which are presented in the systematic list section on pages 30 – 98, for which I wish to thank the species authors. An alphabetic index of species is included on pages 146 – 147 to help readers locate individual species information and a gazetteer of place names mentioned in the species accounts is provided on pages 142 – 145. The county list of species (now numbering 281) was boosted by the sighting of a Spotted Sandpiper, a county ‘first’, at Wellington Gravel Pits in May 2015 (see article on pages 28 – 29), and seven other rarities with 20 or fewer previous county records also made an appearance in Herefordshire during the year: Red-crested Pochard, Marsh Harrier, Turnstone, Temminck’s Stint, Red-necked Phalarope, Caspian Gull and Common Redpoll. A tremendous amount of effort has gone into validating the records of rarities on the county list during the past year and the review article on pages 12 – 18 makes enlightening reading and provides a definitive list and dates of sightings for all 94 rarity species with 20 or fewer records. The large increase in the number of bird records received in 2014, compared with previous years, continued in 2015 with a similar 46,000 records being utilised in compiling this annual report.
