    THE HIDA TION OF BUCKINGHAMSHIRE KEITH BAILEY In a pioneering paper Mr Bailey here subjects the Domesday data on the hidation of Buckinghamshire to a searching statistical analysis, using techniques never before applied to this county. His aim is not explain the hide, but to lay a foundation on which an explanation may be built; to isolate what is truly exceptional and therefore calls for further study. Although he disclaims any intention of going beyond analysis, his paper will surely advance our understanding of a very important feature of early English society.

INTRODUCTION This study of Thomley (S P 631090) covers the period 1086-1349, with emphasis on the 13th and early 14th centuries. ILs main purpose is to explain the eventual desertion of the settlement through an examination of land-tenure and local society. While there are indications that smallholders, even those with half a yardland or less, were not badly off, it is equally clear that the village was declining in this period: between 1279 and 1377 the recorded population dropped by at least a third. Thomley's final extinction lay in the 16th-century enclosures, but its decay can probably be traced back to earlier circumstances: its marginal position between two larger villages, the lack of any focus such as a church or market, and a tendency for holdings to pass into the hands of outside proprietors.

    OAKLEY PARISH COUNCIL MEETING TUESDAY 2nd December 2014 at 7.30pm Minutes Open question time for Parishioners N.B. The open question time is not part of the Parish Council Meeting • One parishioner queried the affordable housing in Elmwood Close and the recently discussed 106 contract, would there would be more funding for the 106 fund? Mr Mole stated that this 106 contract change concerned sale of Elmwood properties only and does not make a difference to the amount of funding we receive from 106 funds. • Two youths spoke regarding their disappointment in the “phrasing” of the November minutes regarding the “Skateboarding” problem in the Village Hall Car Park, they wished it known that they always tidy up. The Village Hall Car Park after they have used it for skateboarding, and have never left wood or nails lying in the car park. Councillor Mr Finn reported that a letter had been received last month from a Parishioner regarding this matter and this was the reason it had been mentioned in the open question time. He also explained to the youths present that the Parish Council did not name any specific person in record of proceedings because they did not know who was responsible. It was noted that the term regarding “behaviour” could have been misinterpreted; and did not mean that the behaviour of the boys, to whom Mr Finn had spoken to. • One local resident reported that a burglary had taken place at her premises during the last week and although they had tried to gain entry to her house, had not been able to do so.
