'British Small Craft': the Cultural Geographies of Mid-Twentieth
‘British Small Craft’: the cultural geographies of mid-twentieth century technology and display James Lyon Fenner BA MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2014 Abstract The British Small Craft display, installed in 1963 as part of the Science Museum’s new Sailing Ships Gallery, comprised of a sequence of twenty showcases containing models of British boats—including fishing boats such as luggers, coracles, and cobles— arranged primarily by geographical region. The brainchild of the Keeper William Thomas O’Dea, the nautical themed gallery was complete with an ocean liner deck and bridge mezzanine central display area. It contained marine engines and navigational equipment in addition to the numerous varieties of international historical ship and boat models. Many of the British Small Craft displays included accessory models and landscape settings, with human figures and painted backdrops. The majority of the models were acquired by the museum during the interwar period, with staff actively pursuing model makers and local experts on information, plans and the miniature recreation of numerous regional boat types. Under the curatorship supervision of Geoffrey Swinford Laird Clowes this culminated in the temporary ‘British Fishing Boats’ Exhibition in the summer of 1936. However the earliest models dated back even further with several originating from the Victorian South Kensington Museum collections, appearing in the International Fisheries Exhibition of 1883. 1 With the closure and removal of the Shipping Gallery in late 2012, the aim of this project is to produce a reflective historical and cultural geographical account of these British Small Craft displays held within the Science Museum. -
A Glossary of Words Used in the Dialect of Cheshire
o^v- s^ COLONEL EGERTON LEIGH. A GLOSSARY OF WORDS USED IN THE DIALECT OF CHESHIRE FOUNDED ON A SIMILAR ATTEMPT BY ROGER WILBRAHAM, F.R.S. and F.S.A, Contributed to the Society of Antiquaries in iSiy. BY LIEUT.-COL. EGERTON LEIGH, M.P. II LONDON : HAMILTON, ADAMS, AND CO. CHESTER : MINSHULL AND HUGHES. 1877. LONDON : CLAY, SONS, AND TAYLOR, PRINTERS, » ,•*• EREA2) STH4iaT^JIIJ:-L,; • 'r^UKEN, V?eTO«IVS«"gBI?t- DEDICATION. I DEDICATE this GLOSSARY OF Cheshijie Words to my friends in Mid-Cheshire, and believe, with some pleasure, that these Dialectical Fragments of our old County may now have a chance of not vanishing entirely, amid changes which are rapidly sweeping away the past, and in many cases obliterating words for which there is no substitute, or which are often, with us, better expressed by a single word than elsewhere by a sentence. EGERTON LEIGH. M24873 PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS ATTACHED TO WILBRAHAM'S "CHESHIRE GLOSSARY." Although a Glossary of the Words peculiar to each County of England seems as reasonable an object of curiosity as its History, Antiquities, Climate, and various Productions, yet it has been generally omitted by those persons who have un- dertaken to write the Histories of our different Counties. Now each of these counties has words, if not exclusively peculiar to that county, yet certainly so to that part of the kingdom where it is situated, and some of those words are highly beautiful and of their and expressive ; many phrases, adages, proverbs are well worth recording, and have occupied the attention and engaged the pens of men distinguished for talents and learning, among whom the name of Ray will naturally occur to every Englishman at all conversant with his mother- tongue, his work on Proverbs and on the different Dialects of England being one of the most popular ones in our PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS. -

That led me to re-read years of yearbooks and what a publication it is. Where else would you find tales of derring do on the high seas and burnt burgers in the same publication? The yearbook is a true collaboration, Doug Lamont who puts it together, would have nothing without the contributions from members and support from our generous sponsors and advertisers. -

I would gladly lend my support to the future of the programme.' Tom Cunliffe, expert, broadcaster/author, Yachtmaster Examiner 'I have learned though osmosis, and have become a more able sailor as a result.' Year 1 Trainee 'Another great thing about this course is that you get to work with the people who are actually the tradesmen of the industry, you get to know these people and you learn from real situations not just theoretical ones.' Year 1 Trainee 'Fantastic experience. unforgettable.' Year 2 Trainee 'This was a bold experiment and the first time it has been attempted - to have no dropout rate and almost all the trainees in paid employment at the end is an enormous tribute to the planning and running of the project. The sector now has a pool of knowledgeable people in the next generation who can actively network as individuals and expand their connections with each other.' Richard Titchener - Sea-Change Sailing Trust, SHTP Partner 'I would like to see the course remain as flexible as possible, not pushing the students toward a sea going career or a land based one, but allowing them to experience as much of everything as possible, that has been the course’s -
