    Mapping the Late Medieval and Post Medieval Landscape of Cumbria Two Volumes Volume 1: Text Caron Egerton Newman Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History, Classics and Archaeology Newcastle University Submitted: June 2014 Abstract This study is an analysis of the development of rural settlement patterns and field systems in Cumbria from the later medieval period through to the late eighteenth century. It uses documentary, cartographic and archaeological evidence. This evidence is interpreted utilising the techniques of historic landscape characterisation (HLC), map regression and maps created by the author, summarising and synthesising historical and archaeological data. The mapped settlement data, in particular, has been manipulated using tools of graphic analysis available within a Graphical Information System (GIS). The initial product is a digital map of Cumbria in the late eighteenth century, based on the county-scale maps of that period, enhanced with information taken from enclosure maps and awards, and other post medieval cartographic sources. From this baseline, an interpretation of the late medieval landscape was developed by adding information from other data sources, such as place names and documentary evidence. The approach was necessarily top-down and broad brush, in order to provide a landscape-scale, sub-regional view. This both addresses the deficiencies within the standard historical approach to landscape development, and complements such approaches. Standard historical approaches are strong on detail, but can be weak when conclusions based on localised examples are extrapolated and attributed to the wider landscape. The methodology adopted by this study allows those local analyses to be set within a broader landscape context, providing another tool to use alongside more traditional approaches to historic landscape studies.

  • Cumbria Eden Flood History 2013
    Cumbria Eden flood history 2013 Sources Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and, further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The main source for this study has been from newspaper accounts. Newspaper Sources Newspaper descriptions include much that is of human interest but only limited information which can be used to define the magnitude of the flood. It is only the latter information which has been extracted for the most part, indicating levels or depths on roads and buildings which may still be identifiable. Such details provide a means of assessing the comparative magnitude of floods. The two principal urban areas within the Eden catchment which are vulnerable to flooding are Appleby and Carlisle. Papers which cover part of Cumbria include: Cumberland Packet (Whitehaven) 1774 to 1915, Carlisle Journal, 1801 to 1960s, Carlisle Patriot (later Cumberland News) 1815 to present Penrith Observer, 1860 onward West Cumberland Times(Workington) 1874 onward Westmoreland Gazette (Kendal) 1818 onward The online British Newspaper Archive has a limited number of newspapers and years of record available for Cumbria. The following were available in May 2015. Cumberland and Westmorland Advertiser, and Penrith Literary Chronicle – 1855 – 1871 Cumberland Pacquet, and Ware’s Whitehaven Advertiser – 1777– 1808, 1812 – 1871 Westmorland Gazette 1818- 1867, 1871 Kendal Mercury 1835 - 1870 Carlisle Journal 1801-1805, 1810-1811, 1814-1815, 1818-1820, 1833 - 1867 Carlisle Patriot 1816-1871 Note for later papers Lancaster Gazette 1870-1893 Lancashire Evening Post (based in Preston) 1886 – 1909, 1917 – 1921, 1924, 1929, 1930 - 1947 Descriptions are generally imprecise and without details of levels reached or the extent of the area flooded.

  • The Personal and Family Correspondence of Col. John Carlyle of Alexandria, Virginia
    The Personal and Family Correspondence of Col. John Carlyle of Alexandria, Virginia. Annotated by J. F. Carlyle INTRODUCTION John Carlyle’s large, imposing house in Alexandria, Virginia, stands as testimony to man of wealth and position in mid-eighteenth century America. It is proof in stone that what would later be known as the American dream was a reality, even before the time of the revolution. An energetic man of modest means could make his fortune in the land of opportunity then, as well as now, and Carlyle proved it. Though his house has stood firm for over 250 years, very little was known of the life of John Carlyle until comparatively recently, when a bundle of his letters was discovered in a country house by the shores of Loch Fyne in Scotland. These letters are now in the safe keeping of the Virginia Historical Society. Their discovery among the belongings of one of the descendants John Carlyle’s brother, George, sheds light on both his personal and business life, revealing a man of warmth and loyalty in his private life, and great enthusiasm in his business affairs. The letters written in the immediate aftermath of his father’s death in 1744 tell of John Carlyle’s work in helping to wind up the estate for his elder brother, who was executor of the will. His father, William Carlyle, had been a successful apothecary in the city of Carlisle in Cumberland, the northernmost county in the west of England. Under the terms of that will the bulk of William Carlyle’s estate went to George, after provision had been made for his widowed mother.
