  • The Ice Age in North Hertfordshire
    The Ice Age in North Hertfordshire What do we mean by ‘the Ice Age’? Thinking about ‘the Ice Age’ brings up images of tundra, mammoths, Neanderthals and great sheets of ice across the landscape. This simple picture is wrong in many ways. Firstly, there have been many different ‘Ice Ages’ in the history of the earth. The most dramatic happened between 2.4 and 2.1 billion years ago, known as the Huronian Glaciation. About the same time, earth’s atmosphere suddenly became rich in oxygen, and some scientists believe that the atmospheric changes reduced the temperature so much that the whole planet became covered in ice. 1: an Arctic ice sheet (© Youino Joe, USFWS, used under a Creative Commons licence) Another global cover of ice happened 650 million years ago when the first multi-celled animals were evolving. Geologists sometimes refer to this period as the ‘Snowball Earth’ and biologists know it as the Proterozoic. Temperatures were so low that the equator was as cold as present-day Antarctica. They began to rise again as concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere rose to about 13%, 350 times greater than today. Some carbon dioxide came from volcanic eruptions, but some was excreted by microbial life, which was beginning to diversify and increase in numbers. Neither of these Ice Ages is the one that dominates the popular imagination. Both happened many millions of years before life moved on to land. There were no humans, no mammals, no dinosaurs: none of the creatures familiar from The Flintstones. The period most people think about as the ‘real’ Ice Age is the geologists’ Pleistocene era, from more than two-and-a-half million years ago to the beginning of the Holocene, almost 12,000 years ago.

It explains the historical processes that created the modern physical environment, concentrating on such matters as the form and location of villages, farms and hamlets, the character of fields, woods and commons, and the varied forms of churches, vernacular houses, and great houses with their associated parks and gardens. But we also use these features, in turn, as forms of historical evidence in their own right, to throw important new light on key debates in social, economic and environmental history. Our focus is not entirely on the rural landscape. Most Hertfordshire people, like the majority of their fellows elsewhere in the country, live in towns and suburbs, and these too – although often created relatively recently – are a part of the county’s historic landscape and have a story to tell. The purpose of this opening chapter is to set the scene, explaining some of the physical contexts and broad patterns of historical development which form the essential background to the more detailed studies presented in the chapters that follow.
