  • Dedicattons of Tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©Ometsetsftire. “L
    DeDicattons of tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©ometsetsftire. BY THE KEY. E. H. BATES, M.A HE late Mr. W illiam Long contributed to the seventeenth “L volume of the Proceedings in 1871 a classified list of the Church Dedications given by Ecton in his Thesaurus Rerum Ecclesiasticarum, 1742. As Editor of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Kalendar my attention has been frequently drawn, from my own knowledge as well as by numerous correspon- dents, to the many errors and gaps in that list. It became plainly necessary to go behind the Thesaurus to the original sources of information. And here I may be allowed to repro- duce what I have already stated in the preface to the Kalendar for 1905. It should be clearly understood that there is no authoritative list in existence. Among the Public Becords are two works known as Pope Nicholas’ Taxatio of 1291, and the Valor Ec- clesiasticus of 27 Henry VIII (1536), containing the names of all parishes in England and Wales. These were primarily drawn up to ascertain the value of the benefices, and only in- cidentally, as in the case of towms with many churches, are the dedications added. The latter work, to which the title of V^ahr Ecclesiasticus or Liber Regis is generally given, was first printed in 1711 by J ohn Ecton. His preface contains a very interesting account of the early work of the Queen Anne’s Bounty Fund, of which he was Receiver, and of the serious state of affairs in the large towns which led to its foundation.

Many stand in pretty villages or quiet rural locations, the perfect picture of all things English. 13 But look closer and you’ll see that Somerset churches have their own distinct character.

  • The Country Was Divided up Into 'Hundreds' – (Even Before Doomsday – No-One Knows Why Hundreds, It Doesn't Make Any Se
    TEXT OF TALK GIVEN BY DR ROBERT DUNNING ABOUT THE SOUTH PETHERTON DIOCESE; IN PARTICLAR THE CHURCHES OF SEAVINGTON ST MICHAEL AND SEAVINGTON ST MARY ON 24 JULY 2009 AT THE CHURCH OF ST PETER’S & ST PAUL’S, SOUTH PETHERTON The Country was divided up into ‘Hundreds’ – (even before doomsday – no-one knows why hundreds, it doesn’t make any sense why they were called hundreds as some of them were quite large and some were small and some were in several bits). They were areas of taxation and lasted up until end of 2nd World War. The Hundred of South Petherton tells us a great deal about when the church began. The Hundred of South Petherton is peculiar as it includes South Petherton, Shepton Beauchamp and Barrington and the Seavingtons, and Lopen (then a tiny gap – Crewkerne hundred?) Then Dinnington and Dowlish, Cudworth, Chillington, Whitestaunton, Dowlish, Cricket. No one knows why it began and continued in that shape. Quite a lot of them in the West County which became Hundreds were units of Royal Estate and became Minster parishes. Probably 2 units, the southern bit we don’t know too much about, but the northern bit we do and that is where we are. It was part of a Royal Estate. This is evidence of the close relationship between the Saxon Kings and the church because the King when he established an Estate, would put a church right in the middle of the hundred and said to the clergy who are there this is your preaching base, go out and spread the gospel.
