												  Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549“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.

												  DRAFT NDP 16Th January 2015ALMELEY DRAFT PARISH NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN 2015-2031 ALMELEY PARISH – THE FUTURE VIEW OF AN AREA OF OUTSTANDING NATURAL BEAUTY, ALMELEY. ©Almeley Parish Council 2015. 1 Foreword In 2011, the Government decided that local communities should be closely involved in decisions which affect them, and the Localism Act was placed on the Statute Book. This introduced the concept of Neighbourhood Development Plans, allowing local communities to influence new development in their area. At a public meeting In September 2012 Almeley Parish Council resolved to produce a Neighbourhood Development Plan with the aim of identifying a vision for the parish for the Plan period 2013-2031. Once made, the Plan becomes part of Herefordshire District Council’s planning framework which informs and controls the local planning authority’s decisions. The Plan will have legal status. A Steering Group was established, the purpose of which was to design a questionnaire. Residents were fully informed throughout the process and opinions and ideas invited. Once approved by the Parish Council, the questionnaire was circulated to every adult resident of the parish and 167 responses were submitted to the Parish Council. The results of the questionnaire were analysed and during a series of meetings with residents a wide range of issues emerged that will influence the wellbeing of residents and contribute towards the long-term preservation of this rural community. Development of the Plan followed analysis of the questionnaire which was refined by an advisory group, working with the Parish Council. Every effort was made by the Advisory Group to ensure that the Plan reflects the views of the majority of Almeley residents.

At its heart is the Heritage at Risk Register, an online database containing details of each site known to be at risk. It is analysed and updated annually and this leaflet summarises the results. Heritage at Risk teams are now in each of our nine local offices, delivering national expertise locally. The good news is that we are on target to save 25% (1,137) of the sites that were on the Register in 2010 by 2015. From St Barnabus Church in Birmingham to the Guillotine Lock on the Stratford Canal, this success is down to good partnerships with owners, developers, the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), Natural England, councils and local groups.

												  Sir John Oldcastle Downloaded From484 July Sir John Oldcastle Downloaded from INCE the early days of the English Reformation Sir John S Oldcastle has held a high place in the traditions of his country. Two of the chief advocates of protestantism, seeking edification in the history of their Lollard predecessors, published accounts of http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ his Bufferings; and his renown, proclaimed by Tyndale's work,1 and doubtless increased by the issue of Bale's Bre/e Chronyclc* grew higher and higher till he came to be regarded as a, national heTo. Early in the reign of Elixabeth, however, Foxe had to defend his eulogy of Oldcastle against the criticism of a Roman catholic historian ; and a generation or so later the Lollard advocates broke a lance with the dramatist*, whose traditions made Oldcastle fl. roystering buffoon. The sympathies of the ascendant at University of Manitoba on August 31, 2015 party were on Foxe's side; his reply succeeded in silencing hiB opponent, and Shakespeare was driven to change the surname of a famous character from Oldcastle to Falstaff.1 Oldcastle'a fame has been kept alive down to modern times by fresh editions of old works and the publication of new ones.

												  Almeley Regulation 16 RepresentationsLatham, James From: Turner, Andrew Sent: 23 July 2018 15:43 To: Neighbourhood Planning Team Subject: RE: Almeley Regulation 16 neighbourhood development plan consultation Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Completed RE: Almeley Regulation 16 draft Neighbourhood Development Plan Dear Neighbourhood Planning Team, I refer to the above and would make the following comments with regard to the above proposed development plan. It is my understanding that you do not require comment on Core Strategy proposals as part of this consultation or comment on sites which are awaiting or have already been granted planning approval. Having reviewed records readily available, I would advise the following: 1. A review of Ordnance survey historical plans indicate the proposed housing development site ‘Policy ALM11: Land to north of West View’ indicated in light brown on the ‘Almeley village policies map’, has no previous historic potentially contaminative uses. 2. ‘Policy ALM13: Redevelopment of Land at Woonton Farm’ as indicated in grey on the ‘Woonton polices map’. This proposed ‘housing development’ site appears from a review of Ordnance survey historical plans to have historically been used as orchards. By way of general advice I would mention that orchards can be subject to agricultural spraying practices which may, in some circumstances, lead to a legacy of contamination and any development should consider this. 3. I would also advise the following regarding the proposed development sites; ‘Policy ALM13: Redevelopment of Land at Woonton Farm’ & ‘Policy ALM14: Residential Use Associated with Historic Farmsteads’ Some farm buildings may be used for the storage of potentially contaminative substances (oils, herbicides, pesticides) or for the maintenance and repair of vehicles and machinery.
