  • Frampton on Severn Lies on the East Bank of the River Severn Approximately Ten Miles South of Gloucester
    Frampton on Severn lies on the east bank of the river Severn approximately ten miles south of Gloucester. With a population of around 1200, it is the largest village in the Berkeley Vale and boasts the longest village green in England. Reputedly this was used as a practice area for medieval bowmen, was the site of a parliamentary garrison in 1643 and the local militia, formed in 1795 to combat the threat of invasion by Napoleon, regularly drilled up and down its half mile length. FRAMPTON REMEMBERS WW1 has been inspired by the Gloucestershire Remembers WW1 project. We shall look at the effects of the Great War on our village and its inhabitants by drawing on extensive archives from a number of public sources. We will combine these with the private records of the many families whose connections with the village are still maintained. THE WAR EFFORT Chocolate was considered to be a great morale booster during WW1. Cadbury Bros Ltd opened a factory in Frampton on Severn in 1916 which helped to produce chocolate for the soldiers in the trenches. Cadburys started up a number of recreational and sporting clubs in the village, many of which still exist today. German prisoners of war extracted gravel, making some into concrete building blocks. One of these became a memorial to a colleague who died. Gravel from Frampton was also used in the construction of Chepstow dockyard during the war. The gravel pits are now lakes which are designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest for their varied wildlife and habitat. SCHOOL LIFE The death of our pupil teacher, Frederick Robert Hitchings, was a bitter blow to those at school.

  • The Establishment of the Head Port of Gloucester, 1565-1584 (Mphil
    The Establishment of the Head Port of Gloucester, 1565-1584 Alexander Higgins A thesis submitted to the University of Bristol in accordance with the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts, Department of Historical Studies, November 2012. 24,884 words. Abstract After a fifteen-year campaign, Gloucester became an independent head port in 1580. This effectively ended Bristol’s long-standing jurisdiction over the Gloucestershire reaches of the River Severn and resulted in the loss of the greater part of Bristol’s historic port. This dissertation explores Bristol’s objections to this change and examines the prosecution of their complaints through the equity side of the Exchequer court. Primarily, this study focuses upon two commissions created by the Crown to review the case. The interrogatories and depositions produced by these commissions are used to explore the nature of this dispute, the motivation behind Bristol’s objections and why Gloucester ultimately retained its head port status. The first chapter focuses upon the practical implementation of the commissions. Rather than relying upon the legal records alone, this study uses letters, accounts and reports produced by the two parties to explore the workings of a commission. This approach reveals the extent of Bristol and Gloucester’s attempts to manipulate proceedings to their own advantage. These findings have significant implications on the impartiality of Tudor legal process and the reliability of the Exchequer records. The second chapter examines the findings of the two commissions to assess the nature and strength of Bristol’s arguments. It is shown that many of these arguments were unsubstantiated.

This document may be reproduced with prior permission of the Environment Agency. December 2009 Introduction I am pleased to introduce our summary of the Severn Tidal Tributaries Catchment Flood Management Plan (CFMP). This CFMP gives an overview of the flood risk in the Severn Tidal Tributaries catchment and sets out our preferred plan for sustainable flood risk management over the next 50 to 100 years. The Severn Tidal Tributaries CFMP is one of 77 CFMP’s 2,562 properties and 6,000 people at risk in the for England and Wales. Through the CFMP’s, we have catchment in a 1% flood event. However, it is expected assessed inland flood risk across all of England and that both of these figures could rise quite significantly Wales for the first time. The CFMP considers all types within the next 100 years by which point some 3,720 of inland flooding, from rivers, ground water, surface properties and 7,000 people could be affected by water and tidal flooding, but not flooding directly flooding in a 1% event.

  • The Introduction of the Tin-Plate Industry to the Lower Wye Valley and the Newerne Valley of the Forest of Dean
    Reprinted from: Gloucestershire Society for Industrial Archaeology Journal for 2003 pages 3-9 THE INTRODUCTION OF THE TIN-PLATE INDUSTRY TO THE LOWER WYE VALLEY AND THE NEWERNE VALLEY OF THE FOREST OF DEAN. Pat Morris Even a fairly cursory examination of the details given in the censuses of 1841 and 1851 for Lydney shows that there were very many incomers among the Lydney residents. The biggest group of incomers were those working at the iron and tin plate works in 1851. The population of Lydney, and particularly the number of employees of the tin plate works, increased appreciably between 1841 and 1851. The significance of these works for the growth of Lydney between those dates was evident. Relatively little published material about the early period of that industry’s growth could be found. Much more of what is available relates to the late 19th century Richard Thomas ownership. This study originated in an attempt to find more about the growth of the Lydney tin works in the early period, the origins of its employees, their skills and the dynamics of their settlement in and impact on Lydney. The Development of Tin Works in the Forest of Dean Lydney’s iron industry was long established and particularly significant in the 17th century, but Lydney was not one of the early sites of the tin plate industry. A very interesting sequence of the spread of tin plating around the lower Severn becomes apparent. In South Wales tin plate making was established in Pontypool and Kidwelly in the early 18th century.(1) Rowland Pytt, in 1731 described as of Lydney, ironmaster, took the lease of Ynys- y-gerwn tin works near Aberdulais, Glam.

  • Marine Safety in the Severn Estuary & Lower
    Marine Safety in the Severn Estuary & Lower Wye A Guide to Safe Navigation for Small Craft and Notes for River Bank Users (Updated May 2017) INTRODUCTION TO THE SEVERN ESTUARY The Severn Estuary can be a dangerous place, with shifting sands, a rapid rise of tide and strong tidal currents. Those who use the estuary need to be aware of the dangers and ready to deal with them safely. Since 1889 the Gloucester Harbour Trustees have regulated navigation and provided aids in the estuary to assist in the safe passage of all craft, whether commercial shipping or sailing dinghies. We have produced this guide to help all users of the estuary to understand the hazards and to know what to look out for, what to avoid and how to respond in an emergency. We hope that the information will be a useful contribution to the continued safe use of the estuary. The Gloucester Harbour is the formal name given to a defined area for which the Gloucester Harbour Trustees is the conservancy, harbour and local lighthouse authority. This area includes the River Severn and its estuary, extending from the Maisemore and Llanthony weirs near Gloucester, to lines seaward of the Second Severn Crossing. The River Wye as far as Bigsweir Bridge also falls within this area. 2 INDEX TO SECTIONS 1 General Safety Considerations 2 General Advice to Vessels 3 Tidal Considerations 4 Safety of Small Craft and Canal Craft 5 Conduct of Vessels 6 The River Severn between the Second Severn Crossing and Sharpness Dock 7 The River Severn between Sharpness Dock and Gloucester 8 The River
