FDC and the College of West Anglia (CWA) have been working with the Fenland Enterprise Education (FEE) project to link schools to local employers as a way of improving youngsters knowledge of the requirements of employment across different sectors. The FEE project ran successfully for three years, bringing around 5000 students into contact with business people. FEE was very successful in bringing employers into Fenland Schools to support some of the employability issues listed above.

  • Some Notes on Hatfield.* by WILLIAM PAGE, F.S.A
    334 S. ALBANS AND HERTS ARCHITECTURAL AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY. Some Notes on Hatfield.* BY WILLIAM PAGE, F.S.A. Neither the time which I have had to prepare this paper, nor that allotted for its delivery, will allow of an exhaustive account of Hatfield and its palace, but the Calendars to the State Papers at the Public Record Office, and more particularly the work of the Historical Manu- scripts Commission, in making available the wealth of historical material hitherto almost hidden among the Cecil MSS. will, I hope, enable me to bring forward some fresh facts in the history of this most interesting parish. I think I may safely say that all western Hertfordshire was forest waste up to a period not very long before the Norman Conquest. That Hatfield was so, is to a certain extent indicated by the enormous area of the parish, now the largest in the county, covering 12,884 acres, or, before Totteridge was separated from it, 13,951 acres, showing how sparsely inhabited it must have been at the time when it was formed. The Domesday Survey of 1086 points to much of the land being forest, by recording that there was woodland sufficient for 2,000 swine, a larger number than for any other parish in the county. It may be interesting, therefore, to consider that the beautiful parks which we now see around us have, for the most part, never been under cultivation, and though probably much altered, may be said to be the remains of the primaeval forest, which, as before remarked, covered all the western and southern parts of the county.

By W. H. ST. JOHN HOPE, Esq., M.A., Assistant Secretary. Read 15th February, 1906. THE subject of this paper has been suggested by a well-known story, to be found in one form or another in many a popular History of England, that the young King Henry the Third was crowned at Gloucester in 1216 with a golden circlet, because the crown of King John his father had been lost with all his other treasures in the waves of the "Wash. That a circlet was so used we have the authority of Matthew Paris,a but whether by reason of the loss of the royal crown, or the more probable difficulty of obtaining1 the crown itself in the nine days that intervened between the king's accession and his coronation,1' the historian does not say.
