RONALD STK\VAKT-BKO\V\, MA, FSA, I-.On S
THI-: i.ATI: RONALD STK\VAKT-BKO\V\, M.A., F.S.A., i-.on s COMMUNICATIONS. RONALD STEWART-BROWN. HE Council wish to express their deep regret at the T death of Mr. Ronald Stewart-Brown, M.A., F.S.A., F.Gen.S., who had been a member of our Society since 1905 and a Vice-President since 1920. He died at his home, Bryn-y-Grog, near Wrexham, on n January, 1940, at the age of 67, and was buried at Childwall. He was born in Liverpool in 1872, being the fifth son of the late Mr. Stewart Henry Brown, a magistrate and partner in Messrs. Brown Shipley & Co., Liverpool and London, and Brown Brothers & Co., New York, bankers and merchants. Educated at Harrow and Trinity College, Cambridge, he took honours in the Solicitors' Final Examination, and for thirty-six years practised in Liverpool, retiring from the firm of Alsop Stevens & Co. in 1933. Besides being the honorary local secretary for Cheshire of the Society of Antiquaries, he filled many other offices in historical and archaeological societies dealing with Lan cashire, Cheshire and North Wales. For many years he was honorary secretary and general editor of the Record Society of Lancashire and Cheshire, and at his death was Vice-President of that Society. He was also a prominent member of the councils of the Chetham Society (1927-34) and the Chester Archaeo logical Society (1910-20), a fellow of the Society of Genealogists, and honorary treasurer of the University of Liverpool School of Local History and Records. -
Electoral Review of Salford City Council
Electoral review of Salford City Council Response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on Warding Patterns August 2018 1 1 Executive Summary 1.1 Salford in 2018 has changed dramatically since the city’s previous electoral review of 2002. Salford has seen a turnaround in its fortunes over recent years, reversing decades of population decline and securing high levels of investment. The city is now delivering high levels of growth, in both new housing and new jobs, and is helping to drive forward both Salford’s and the Greater Manchester economies. 1.2 The election of the Greater Manchester Mayor and increased devolution of responsibilities to Greater Manchester, and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, is fundamentally changing the way Salford City Council works in areas of economic development, transport, work and skills, planning, policing and more recently health and social care. 1.3 Salford’s directly elected City Mayor has galvanised the city around eight core priorities – the Great Eight. Delivering against these core priorities will require the sustained commitment and partnership between councillors, partners in the private, public, community and voluntary and social enterprise sectors, and the city’s residents. This is even more the case in the light of ongoing national policy changes, the impending departure of the UK from the EU, and continued austerity in funding for vital local services. The city’s councillors will have an absolutely central role in delivering against these core priorities, working with all our partners and residents to harness the energies and talents of all of the city. -

The Rise of Bolton As an Important Engineering and Textile Town in Early 1800 England
I. međunarodna konferencija u povodu 150. obljetnice tvornice torpeda u Rijeci i očuvanja riječke industrijske baštine 57 THE RISE OF BOLTON AS AN IMPORTANT ENGINEERING AND TEXTILE TOWN IN EARLY 1800 ENGLAND Denis O’Connor, Industrial Historian Bolton Lancashire, Great Britain INTRODUCTION The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that Great Britain changed, in the 19th Century, from a rural economy to one based on coal and iron. In doing so it created conditions for British civil, textile and mechanical engineers, such as Robert Whitehead of Bolton, to rise to positions of eminence in their particular fields. Such men travelled across Europe, and laid, through the steam engine and railways, the foundations for many of the regions present day industries. EARLY TEXTILES AND BLEACHING. RISE OF LOCAI INDUSTRIES The origins of Bolton’s textile and engineering industry lie back in the 12th Century with the appointment of a Crown Quality Controller called an Ulnager. During the reign of Henry V111 an itinerant historian Leland observed that ‘Bolton - upon - Moore Market standeth by the cotton and coarse yarns - Diverse villages above Bolton do make Cotton’ and that ‘They burne at Bolton some canelle (coal) of which the Pitts be not far off’. Coal, combined with the many powerful streams of water from the moorlands, provided the basic elements for the textile industry to grow, the damp atmosphere conducive to good spinning of thread. In 1772 a Directory of Manchester (10-12 miles distant) was published, in this can be seen the extent of cloth making in an area of about 12 miles radius round Manchester, with 77 fustian makers (Flax warp and cotton or wool weft) attending the markets, 23 of whom were resident in Bolton. -

16Th Century Salford Portmoot Records
n8 SIXTEENTH CENTURY SALFORD PORTMOOT RECORDS MONG the muniments of the Clifton family of Lytham, A which have recently been deposited in the Lancashire County Record Office, are two rolls of proceedings in the Salford Wapentake Court for the years 1540-1 and 1546-7. As was the practice in the sixteenth century, there are appended to the rolls the records of the Salford Portmoot. The records of this court are very fragmentary and are in several different custodies. In the Public Record Office are those for 1510, 1513, 1514, 1515, 1522, 1523, 1526, 1530, 1531, and 1594. These have been published by the Chetham Society, N.S., 80. Among the Raines MSS. in the Chetham Library is a transcript of a roll of 1559, the original of which is missing. This has been published by the same Society, N.S., 94, together with the records for 1728 to 1735 inclusive, which are in the custody of the Registrar of the Salford Hundred Court of Record. In the custody of the Town Clerk of Salford are the records for the years 1597 to 1669 in clusive, which have also been published by the Chetham Society, N.S., 46 and 48. In order to complete the publication of the records of the Salford Portmoot the newly-discovered rolls are here printed. There is little to add to the introductions written by Professor Tait in Chetham Society, N.S., 80 and 94, except perhaps to draw attention to the greater number of admissions than "are shown in the other rolls, and especially to the disputed admission of James Williamson in 1546.
