  • Godiva Awakes First Gold Patron Leads Way in a Mission for Regeneration of Local Business Community
    Godiva Awakes first Gold Patron leads way in a mission for regeneration of local business community Leading Coventry business recovery specialist, Cranfield, is inspiring other local companies to come together to support the regions involvement in the London 2012 Olympic Games. As the first Gold Patron of Godiva Awakes, which represents the regions involvement in the Games, Cranfield is sending the message that the event represents much more for the future of business within the Midlands than just being a creative Olympic project. Godiva Awakes sees a mechanically engineered six-metre animated Lady Godiva puppet, powered by 100 cyclists on a Cyclopaedia designed and manufactured by local businesses, on her seven-day journey from Coventry to London, accompanied by a carnival of over 220 dancers and performers. Cranfield’s managing director, Tony Mitchell, who takes a proactive role in the local business community, was recently invited to the maiden unveiling of Godiva’s luxurious coat, which will cover the puppet. Within the lining of the coat each of the ten patrons will have their own embroidered panel. After Godiva’s procession to London, the coat will be on display in Coventry Cathedral following the Olympics. Cranfield initially became a patron of the project in November 2011 after directors Tony Mitchell and Patrick Murtagh attended a mystery tour event when the project was announced, and Gold Patrons were invited to support it. The event involved travelling in a vintage bus from the Coventry Transport Museum to a secret location in Coventry to see Godiva take her first steps in public. This sparked a keen interest from Tony and Patrick, who could see the potential for this ambitious project to symbolise regeneration of the various industries throughout the region.

  • History of Church of the Most Holy Sacrament and St Osburg 1845-2009
    History of Church of the Most Holy Sacrament and St Osburg 1845-2009 The Catholic Mother Church of Coventry since 1807 The History of The Most Holy Sacrament and St. Osburg’s, Coventry Foreward Officially this is styled “The Church of the Most Holy Sacrament,” but it is usually called by the secondary title “St. Osburg's,” a name long enshrined in the history of Coventry. Much of the information in the first part is taken from a booklet produced by Dom Sebastian Simpson O.S.B called “A Centenary Memorial of Saint Osburg’s Coventry 1845- 1945” as well as “The Church of the Most Holy Sacrament and St Osburg 1856-2000”. I hope that, when you read this you will share my desire to pay tribute to and perpetuate the memory of all the good priests and lay folk of bye gone days, whose steadfastness in the Faith accounts for our present goodly heritage. I am pleased to introduce this history of the Parish. This has been produced at the same time as the Restoration Appeal gets underway, Easter 2009. Much of this information and more can be found on the Parish website: http://www.coventry-catholicdeanery.org.uk/StOsburg/ Parish Prayer Signature Fr Garry Byrne Contact Details: Canon Garry Byrne, Parish Priest Church of The Most Holy Sacrament & St. Osburg’s, Barras Lane, Coventry, CV1 4AQ.

  • Paternalism, Disturbance and Parliamentary Reform: Society and Politics in Coventry, 1819-32*
    PETER SEARBY PATERNALISM, DISTURBANCE AND PARLIAMENTARY REFORM: SOCIETY AND POLITICS IN COVENTRY, 1819-32* The procession of her ladyship [the Godiva procession at the Coventry June Show Fair] is merely a commemoration of the traditional release obtained by the "Fair Godiva" for the oppressed inhabitants of Coventry from the tyranny of a feudal baron. Now, thank Heaven, we have to celebrate a nobler triumph, - the freedom of our country from the mercenary grasp of that detested oligarchy - the Borough- mongering tyrants, and lordly oppressors. Coventry Herald, 15 June 1832 We must recollect that Coventry is not the whole country. Edward Ellice, MP for Coventry, ibid., 13 June 1834 Asa Briggs has pointed out that the parliamentary-reform movement of the early 1830's differed considerably in nature and direction between one city and another. In Birmingham, the middle and working classes usually co-operated. Class distinctions were blurred. Steam power and the factory — socially disruptive forces - were lacking. Master and artisan worked together in small workshops, frequently changed places with each other in a socially mobile city, and united in advancing an inflationary paper-money programme appro- priate to the Midlands iron interests. These were concerned with the home market and the need for expansionist credit. In Manchester and Leeds, on the other hand, the classes were separated by the factory, and had competing reform movements. Manchester's middle-class reformers were concerned with the needs of the cotton industry's export markets; they wanted a stable metallic currency, and stressed the encouragement to trade that would follow the repeal of the Corn Laws.

  • The Lammas and Michaelmas Lands
    HISTORY OF COVENTRY. 295 east end of the city); but in 1849, a race course was formed at the west end of the city, between Radford village and Allesley road, and opened in March, in which month the races were held annually, until they were discontinued, some years ago, but it is in con· templation to revive them. THE GREAT SHOW FAIR• . This fair, according to the charter granted by Henry ill., in 1218, takes place on the Friday in Trinity week, and con­ tinues for eight days, on the first of which the commemoration of Lady Godiva's procession is occasionally revived, by a representative obtained for that purpose. This procession originated from Leofric having granted to the inhabitants of Coventry a charter of "freedom from servitude, evil customs, and exactions," through his countess, Godiva, having com­ plied with his request to ride through the city naked, on horseback. More particulars of this event will be found recorded on page 251. Until the year 1823, the fair was held in the principal streets, when it was removed to the Grey Friars'-green, and held until 1858, when it was again removed to the Pool Meadow, where it is now annually held. ENFRANCHISEMENT OF THE CITY. The city first received the elective franchise in the reign of Edward I., but there were partial intermissions until the 31st of Henry VI., since which time it has regularly returned two members to Par­ liament. The right of election is vested in the freemen not receiving alms, which freedom is obtained by seven years' servitude to one and the same trade within the city, together with all householders coming under the previsions of the Act of 1868.

  • Society and Politics in Coventry, 1819–32
    PETER SEARBY PATERNALISM, DISTURBANCE AND PARLIAMENTARY REFORM: SOCIETY AND POLITICS IN COVENTRY, 1819-32* The procession of her ladyship [the Godiva procession at the Coventry June Show Fair] is merely a commemoration of the traditional release obtained by the "Fair Godiva" for the oppressed inhabitants of Coventry from the tyranny of a feudal baron. Now, thank Heaven, we have to celebrate a nobler triumph, - the freedom of our country from the mercenary grasp of that detested oligarchy - the Borough- mongering tyrants, and lordly oppressors. Coventry Herald, 15 June 1832 We must recollect that Coventry is not the whole country. Edward Ellice, MP for Coventry, ibid., 13 June 1834 Asa Briggs has pointed out that the parliamentary-reform movement of the early 1830's differed considerably in nature and direction between one city and another. In Birmingham, the middle and working classes usually co-operated. Class distinctions were blurred. Steam power and the factory — socially disruptive forces - were lacking. Master and artisan worked together in small workshops, frequently changed places with each other in a socially mobile city, and united in advancing an inflationary paper-money programme appro- priate to the Midlands iron interests. These were concerned with the home market and the need for expansionist credit. In Manchester and Leeds, on the other hand, the classes were separated by the factory, and had competing reform movements. Manchester's middle-class reformers were concerned with the needs of the cotton industry's export markets; they wanted a stable metallic currency, and stressed the encouragement to trade that would follow the repeal of the Corn Laws.
