How has the landscape of eastern Purbeck changed over time?

Who were the ‘Lords of the manors’ and what did they control?

Mary Sparks will share her ‘research in progress’, using maps and documents from different periods to explore land holding patterns in the Rowbarrow Hundred from Edward the Confessor’s reign to the present day. She will interrogate ideas about ‘the Manor’, assessing how these ideas relate to what actually existed on the ground. Methods and the process of the research will be explained, as well as findings so far: coloured parish tithe maps of Swanage, THE BEAR Studland, Langton Matravers, Worth Matravers and Corfe from ROOMS • RESTAURANT • BAR c.1840 showing land ownership will be presented, and Afflington Manor will feature as a focussed example of the wider picture.

Dr Mary Sparks is a local historian who has researched aspects of village life in Worth Matravers in the 19th and 20th Centuries, including the ‘Social Mobility of the Country Cottage’. Following time in Bosnia, in 2014 her book on the urban history of Sarajevo (1878-1918) was published by Bloomsbury. She also used maps in her research on Sarajevo; in that context to explore themes of segregation and social integration in the city. A fun and friendly place to eat, sleep and drink.
