  • The Early History of Man's Activities in the Quernmore Area
    I Contrebis 2000 The Early History of Man's Activities in the Quernmore Area. Phil Hudson Introduction This paper hopes to provide a chronological outline of the events which were important in creating the landscape changes in the Quernmore forest area. There was movement into the area by prehistoric man and some further incursions in the Anglo- Saxon and the Norse periods leading to Saxon estates and settled agricultural villages by the time of the Norman Conquest. These villages and estates were taken over by the Normans, and were held of the King, as recorded in Domesday. The Post-Nonnan conquest new lessees made some dramatic changes and later emparked, assarted and enclosed several areas of the forest. This resulted in small estates, farms and vaccaries being founded over the next four hundred years until these enclosed areas were sold off by the Crown putting them into private hands. Finally there was total enclosure of the remaining commons by the 1817 Award. The area around Lancaster and Quernmore appears to have been occupied by man for several thousand years, and there is evidence in the forest landscape of prehistoric and Romano-British occupation sites. These can be seen as relict features and have been mapped as part of my on-going study of the area. (see Maps 1 & 2). Some of this field evidence can be supported by archaeological excavation work, recorded sites and artif.act finds. For prehistoric occupation in the district random finds include: mesolithic flints,l polished stone itxe heads at Heysham;'worked flints at Galgate (SD 4827 5526), Catshaw and Haythomthwaite; stone axe and hammer heads found in Quernmore during the construction of the Thirlmere pipeline c1890;3 a Neolithic bowl, Mortlake type, found in Lancaster,o a Bronze Age boat burial,s at SD 5423 5735: similar date fragments of cinerary urn on Lancaster Moor,6 and several others discovered in Lancaster during building works c1840-1900.7 Several Romano-British sites have been mapped along with finds of rotary quems from the same period and associated artifacts.

  • Lancashire and the Legend of Robin Hood
    ARKHOLME WITH CAWOOD: The making of a township M. Robinson The object of this article is to consider and to try to explain two aspects of the early history of Arkholme with Cawood. The first concerns the origin of the name. Cawood, once an area of forest belonging to the lords of the Manor of Hornby, is what may loosely be described, in an ornithological context, as an habitational name, derived from the Old English 'ca' + 'wude', meaning the wood inhabited by jackdaws.1 Arkholme or 'Ergune' is a topographical name which to some extent is open to interpretation as will be shown. The second aspect concerns the development of the early community which laid the foundations for Arkholme with Cawood's particular pattern of settlement which has survived, almost untouched, through the centuries. The development theory which will be proposed was grounded in an analysis of the Survey of the Hornby Castle Estates2 undertaken at the end of the sixteenth century, which revealed a strikingly disproportionate number of freeholders in Arkholme with Cawood compared with those in the other four Hornby Manor townships. Location Arkholme with Cawood is situated in South Lonsdale on the River Lune about 12 miles to the north of Lancaster and about 5 miles to the south of Kirkby Lonsdale. The land extends to some 3000 acres of lowland roughly bounded on the east by the River Lune with the Beckerthwaite Beck, which flows into the Lune, and the beginnings of the River Keer forming the boundaries to the north and north west. The boundary line to the west and the south follows no particular natural feature.
