  • John Keble's Parishes a History of Hursley and Otterbourne
    John Keble's Parishes: A History Of Hursley And Otterbourne By Charlotte M. Yonge John Keble's Parishes: A History Of Hursley And Otterbourne CHAPTER I - MERDON AND OTTERBOURNE The South Downs of England descend at about eight miles from the sea into beds of clay, diversified by gravel and sand, and with an upper deposit of peaty, boggy soil, all having been brought down by the rivers of which the Itchen and the Test remain. On the western side of the Itchen, exactly at the border where the chalk gives way to the other deposits, lies the ground of which this memoir attempts to speak. It is uneven ground, varied by undulations, with gravelly hills, rising above valleys filled with clay, and both alike favourable to the growth of woods. Fossils of belemnite, cockles (cardium), and lamp-shells (terebratula) have been found in the chalk, and numerous echini, with the pentagon star on their base, are picked up in the gravels and called by the country people Shepherds’ Crowns - or even fossil toads. Large boulder stones are also scattered about the country, exercising the minds of some observers, who saw in certain of them Druidical altars, with channels for the flow of the blood, while others discerned in these same grooves the scraping of the ice that brought them down in the Glacial age. But we must pass the time when the zoophytes were at work on our chalk, when the lamp-shells rode at anchor on shallow waves, when the cockles sat “at their doors in a rainbow frill,” and the belemnites spread their cuttlefish arms to the sea, and darkened the water for their enemies with their store of ink.

This memoir does not profess to be, in any sense, a comprehensive history of the family to which it relates. It aims simply at recording my mother's lineal ancestry as far back as it can be traced with absolute certainty­ that is from the 4ays of Henry VII to our time-and at giving some account, though only in the barest outline, of those among her direct forbears whose lives have been specially distinguished or eventful.

  • Antiquaries in the Age of Romanticism: 1789-1851
    Antiquaries in the Age of Romanticism: 1789-1851 Rosemary Hill Queen Mary, University of London Submitted for the degree of PhD March 2011 1 I confirm that the work presented in this thesis and submitted for the degree of PhD is my own. Rosemary Hill 2 Abstract The thesis concentrates on the work of fourteen antiquaries active in the period from the French Revolution to the Great Exhibition in England, Scotland and France. I have used a combination of the antiquaries’ published works, which cover, among other subjects, architecture, topography, costume history, Shakespeare and the history of furniture, alongside their private papers to develop an account of that lived engagement with the past which characterised the romantic period. It ends with the growing professionalistion and specialisation of historical studies in the mid-nineteenth century which left little room for the self-generating, essentially romantic antiquarian enterprise. In so far as this subject has been considered at all it has been in the context of what has come to be called ‘the invention of tradition’. It is true that the romantic engagement with history as narrative led to some elaboration of the facts, while the newness of the enterprise laid it open to mistakes. I have not ignored this. The restoration of the Bayeux Tapestry, the forged tartans of the Sobieski Stuarts and the creation of Shakespeare’s Birthplace are all considered. Overall, however, I have been concerned not to debunk but as it were to ‘rebunk’, to see the antiquaries in their historical context and, as far as possible, in their own terms.

  • Rationalizing the Royal Navy in Late Seventeenth-Century England
    The Ingenious Mr Dummer: Rationalizing the Royal Navy in Late Seventeenth-Century England Celina Fox In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the Royal Navy constituted by far the greatest enterprise in the country. Naval operations in and around the royal dockyards dwarfed civilian industries on account of the capital investment required, running costs incurred and logistical problems encountered. Like most state services, the Navy was not famed as a model of efficiency and innovation. Its day-to-day running was in the hands of the Navy Board, while a small Admiralty Board secretariat dealt with discipline and strategy. The Navy Board was responsible for the industrial organization of the Navy including the six royal dockyards; the design, construction and repair of ships; and the supply of naval stores. In practice its systems more or less worked, although they were heavily dependent on personal relationships and there were endless opportunities for confusion, delay and corruption. The Surveyor of the Navy, invariably a former shipwright and supposedly responsible for the construction and maintenance of all the ships and dockyards, should have acted as a coordinator but rarely did so. The labour force worked mainly on day rates and so had no incentive to be efficient, although a certain esprit de corps could be relied upon in emergencies.1 It was long assumed that an English shipwright of the period learnt his art of building and repairing ships primarily through practical training and experience gained on an apprenticeship, in contrast to French naval architects whose education was grounded on science, above all, mathematics.

  • The Parish of Pendomer, In
    PENDOMEK, CO. SOMERSET. 91 BY T. BOND, ESQ. he parish of Pendomer, in the hundred of Coker, T anciently written Penne Domer, derives its original name from the peculiarly shaped hill, in British called Pen, on the summit of which stands the church and old manor house in close proximity to each other. Its distinctive appellation was acquired from the family of Hummer or Dommer, who for many generations were lords of the manor. The church, which is a conspicuous object from the line of the Salisbury and Exeter railway, is situated about four miles from the town of Yeovil. It is of small dimensions and simple character, and has no architectural features of more than ordinary interest. Its style is “Perpendicular,^’ but it contains a very interesting monument of much earlier date, which no doubt occupied the same spot in some older building. In an arched recess in the north wall, immediately op- posite the original door way, surmounted by a kind of canopy, lies a recumbent eflSgy of a knight clad in a complete suit of ring mail. The figure rests on a slab of stone six feet one inch long, and four inches thick, raised by common masonry about nine inches above the present pavement. It does not lie entirely on its back, but is turned a little 92 TWENTY-THIRD ANNUAL MEETING. on the right side, by which means its characteristic features are more fully exhibited. The hands are joined in an attitude of prayer, the legs are crossed, and the feet rest on a lion couchant.

  • The Ancient Parish of Hound
    356 THE ANCIENT PARISH OF HOUND. [From the Hampshire Observer^ The northern part of this parish was formerly covered with heaths, which formed its extensive commons. This land had much the same character as Beaulieu Heath on the opposite side of Southampton Water. Plateau gravel, which has been quarried from time immemorial, lies upon its higher parts, as it does on Beaulieu Heath, and formerly, I have no doubt, the land had upon it many barrows tumuli thrown up as funeral monuments to important people of the Celtic race, such as . still remain on Beaulieu Heath. A tumulus still exists near Netley Hill, where there are traces of others. From a similar tumulus near the border of the parish at West End, an urn was taken,' containing the cremated remains of some chieftain of the Bronze Age,, and this is now preserved in the Hartley Museum. There is some evidence to show that the Celtic inhabitants of this part of Hampshire occupied the peninsular knolls between the little creeks on both sides of Southampton Water as dwelling sites. Such positions would doubtless have afforded them facilities for obtaining fish as a food supply and have been good defensive sites. The discovery of Romano- British pottery on such a knoll, where the Superintendent's house of the Royal Military Asylum at Netley now stands, shows that Hound had its inhabitants long before the time of the Saxon Conquest.. That the Romans occupied part of it is proved by their remains which have been discovered. When the Military Asylum, attached to Netley Hospital, was built, in 1867, in addition to the Romano-British pottery I have mentioned, a considerable number of Roman coins were found.
