  • Families & Ferries at Potter's Loade
    Lives in the Landscape Families & Ferries at Potter’s Loade For hundreds of years in rural areas, ferries were invaluable for transporting people, goods, and even livestock between riverbanks. By the 1920’s there were 28 ferries shown on Ordnance Survey maps across the length of the River Severn—including the Potter’s Loade ferry. Records show that a ferry at Potter’s Loade was mentioned as early as 1690 when ‘….the passage over the river…with the boate there belonging at Potters Load’ was included in the lease to nearby Hall Close Farm. It is also mentioned in an advert in the Shrewsbury Chronicle on 16th August 1777 where Rhea Hall in Highley was to be auctioned and the lot included ‘right of free passage over the River Severn at Potter’s Load…..’ Right: Photograph of ‘Lease of possession of the scite of the manor at Alveley’ 4 April,1690 There are a number of mentions of the ferry (and cottage) at Potter’s Loade in the newspaper as over the years it was advertised as ‘TO LET’. These articles have been researched on the British Newspapers Archive website. On 18 September 1851 in Worcester Journal a house, garden, new boat and ferry over the Severn at Potter’s Loade is advertised with applications to J. Bacon. For 3 weeks, in 1864 (20 February- 5 March), a house, garden with ferry over the Severn are advertised with enquires to Mr Fellows. Finally, in 1901 (16th February) there is an advert in the Wellington Journal for a boatman to take charge of Potter’s Loade ferry with applications to H.E.

  • Thomas Brassey and His Link to Heritage Railways No 2 the Severn
    Thomas Brassey and his link to Heritage Railways No 2 The Severn Valley Railway The Severn Valley Railway is a preserved line operating between Kidderminster in Worcestershire and Bridgnorth in Shropshire, a distance of 16 miles. The line was originally built by Thomas Brassey under a contract for the Severn Valley Railway Company and linked Hartlebury near Droitwich Spa with Shrewsbury, a distance of some 40 miles. The preserved railway now operates on part of this line and includes the link between Bewdley and Kidderminster built by others for the Great Western Railway in 1878. Work started in 1858 and included stations at Stourport-on-Severn, Bewdley, Highley, Hampton Loade, Bridgnorth, Coalport, Iron Bridge, and Buildwas amongst others. The line also included the Victoria Bridge over the River Severn near Arley and the 559 yard tunnel north of Bridgnorth. The line was opened in 1862 and absorbed into the Great Western Railway in 1863. The Severn Valley line was closed to both passenger and through freight services in 1963. The restoration of the line started with the formation of the Severn Valley Railway Society in 1965. Initially the 5 1/2 mile section of line from Bridgnorth, south through Hampton Loade, to Alveley Colliery sidings near Highley was acquired and in 1970 train services between Bridgnorth and Hampton Loade were started. In 1973 the 9 mile section from Alveley Colliery sidings through Highley, Arley and Bewdley to Foley Park was purchased and progressively opened during 1974. The final section between Foley Park and Kidderminster opened in 1984. The photograph below from September 2014 shows a scene at Bewdley, once a busy junction.

The county was contested during the First Civil War of 1642-6 and also saw armed conflict on a smaller scale during the Second Civil War of 1648. This detailed study provides a comprehensive bipartisan analysis of military endeavour, in terms of organisation and of the engagements fought. Drawing on numerous primary sources, it explores: leadership and administration; recruitment and the armed forces; military finance; supply and logistics; and the nature and conduct of the fighting.

  • An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
    An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.

The Golden Arrow © Gordon Dickens 1 Introduction Shropshire possesses one of the richest and most varied landscapes of any of the English counties. It offers a diverse range of scenery: from the lakes and rolling pasturelands around Ellesmere in the north, to the gaunt moorlands of the Clee Hills, with their stark industrial ruins, in the south; the densely wooded scarps of Wenlock Edge; or the straight, sandy lanes of the north-eastern heathlands, with their large arable fields and ‘big skys’.
