THE BARROVIAN KING WILLIAM'S COLLEGE MAGAZINE Published three times yearly NUMBER 232 . JULY I 9 $ J A Career for young men that carries responsibility Britain's need for coal increases every year. Oil and nuclear energy can only bridge the gap between the coal we have and the power we need. The bulk of this energy must, for many generations, come from coal. To meet the increasing demands for coal, vast schemes of recon- struction and expansion are being undertaken by the coal-mining industry, for which there must be an adequate supply of suitably qualified and well-trained men. University Scholarships.—The National Coal Board offer a hundred University Scholarships a year ; most are in Mining Engineering, and some are available in -Mechanical, Electrical and Chemical Engineering and in Fuel Technology. They are worth about the same as State Scholarships but there is no parental means test. School Leavers.—There are also good opportunities for advance- ment for boys with initiative who come straight into the industry from school. You can attend part-time courses (for example. National Certificate courses) at technical colleges for which you are given day release from work with pay. Management Training.—When you are qualified—either through the University or through technical college while working—you are eligible for a two or three-year course under the Board's Management Training Scheme. Each trainee has a course mapped out for him personally, with a senior engineer to give him individual supervision. Scientific Careers.—If you are interested in a Scientific Career, there is absorbing and rewarding work at the Board's Research establishments, in the coalfields on operational work.

The Archaeology of Manx Church Interiors: Contents and Contexts 1634-1925
The Archaeology of Manx Church Interiors: contents and contexts 1634-1925 Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Patricia Truce McClure May 2013 © Patricia Truce McClure, 2013. All rights reserved ii The Archaeology of Manx Church Interiors: contents and contexts 1634-1925 by Patricia Truce McClure Abstract Despite the large amount of historical church archaeology carried out within English churches, the relevance of British regional variations to conclusions reached has only been recognized relatively recently (Rodwell 1996: 202 and Yates 2006: xxi). This offered opportunities to consider possible meanings for the evolving post- Reformation furnishing arrangements within Manx churches. The resultant thesis detailed the processes involved whilst examining changes made to the Anglican liturgical arrangements inside a number of Manx and Welsh churches and chapels- of-ease between 1634 and 1925 from previously tried and tested structuration, and sometimes biographical, perspectives for evidence of changes in human and material activity in order to place Manx communities within larger British political, religious and social contexts. Findings challenged conclusions reached by earlier scholarship about the Commonwealth period in Man. Contemporary modifications to material culture inside Manx churches implied that Manx clergymen and their congregations accepted the transfer of key agency from ecclesiastical authorities to Parliamentary actors. Thus Manx religious practices appeared to have correlated more closely, albeit less traumatically, with those in England and Wales during the same period than previously recognized, although the small size of this study could not discover the geographical extent of disarray within Island parishes.

BRITISH MINING No.34 MEMOIRS 1987 Hollis, D.B. 1987 “The Forgotten Iron Mines of Kirk Maughold, Isle of Man” British Mining No.34, NMRS, pp.46-54 Published by the THE NORTHERN MINE RESEARCH SOCIETY SHEFFIELD U.K. © N.M.R.S. & The Author(s) 1987. NB This publication was originally issued in the A4 format then used by the society. It has now been digitised and reformatted at A5. This has changed the original pagination of articles, which is given in square brackets. ISSN 0309-2199 BRITISH MINING No.34 THE FORGOTTEN IRON MINES OF KIRK MAUGHOLD, ISLE OF MAN David B. Hallis SYNOPSIS In the north-east of the Isle of Man, is an almost forgotten iron mining district, covering an area of two or three square miles. Two main fissures and a number of smaller ones, which were filled with a soft earthy mixture of country rock (slate), hematite and carbonates of calcium and manganese, were mined from about 1820 to 1910. This paper describes their location and geology. A history and output analysis of the mines are given. Figures and diagrams illustrate the locations of the mines, mine survey plan and geology of the area. The name Maughold is pronounced “Mackhold” (Ed.) INTRODUCTION The Isle of Man can, through the famous Laxey lead mine, stake its claim as one of the major mining areas of the British Isles. However, few people know of the other, smaller, mining ventures there. Even in the Isle of Man itself, ignorance, and a sense of mystery exist about the old workings.
