  • Watsonia 24 (2003), 539-579
    Watsonia 24: 539–579 (2003) PLANT RECORDS 539 Plant Records Records for publication must be submitted to the appropriate Vice-county Recorder (see BSBI Year Book 2003), and not to the Editors. Following publication of the New Atlas of the British & Irish Flora and the impending publication of the Vice-county Census Catalogue, new criteria have been drawn up for the inclusion of records in Plant Records; these will be published in BSBI News and will be followed in future issues of these lists. So, for the last time, the old criteria for inclusion of records are followed here (but with the addition of some casual taxa that are included in the two books mentioned above): Records must normally be of species, hybrids or subspecies of native or naturalised plants (listed in Kent (1992) or Stace (1997)), belonging to one or more of the following categories: 1st or 2nd v.c. record; 1st or 2nd post-1930 v.c. record; only extant v.c. locality, or 2nd such locality; a record of an extension of range by more than 100 km. Such records will also be accepted for the major islands in v.cc. 102-104, 110 & 113. Only 1st records can normally be accepted for Rubus, Hieracium Taraxacum and hybrids. Records for subdivisions of vice-counties will not be treated separately; they must therefore be records for the vice-county as a whole. Records for Taraxacum must normally be additional to those in Dandelions of Great Britain and Ireland by A. A. Dudman & A. J. Richards (1997). Records are arranged in the order given in the List of vascular plants of the British Isles and its supplements by D.

    Report and accounts of the Duchy of Lancaster for the year ended 31 March 2014 The Duchy of Lancaster Annual Report 2014 The Duchy seeks to achieve a balance between long-term commitments to the environment, social responsibility, and commercial objectives. This approach helps to protect the interests of those individuals living in, working on and visiting the Duchy’s land and buildings while safeguarding the estate for future generations. I would like to welcome Nathan Thompson who joined the Duchy as Chief Executive Officer in 2013.

  • The Archaeology of Castle Slighting in the Middle Ages
    The Archaeology of Castle Slighting in the Middle Ages Submitted by Richard Nevell, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Archaeology in October 2017. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ……………………………………………………………………………… Abstract Medieval castle slighting is the phenomenon in which a high-status fortification is demolished in a time of conflict. At its heart are issues about symbolism, the role of castles in medieval society, and the politics of power. Although examples can be found throughout the Middle Ages (1066–1500) in England, Wales and Scotland there has been no systematic study of the archaeology of castle slighting. Understanding castle slighting enhances our view of medieval society and how it responded to power struggles. This study interrogates the archaeological record to establish the nature of castle slighting: establishing how prevalent it was chronologically and geographically; which parts of castles were most likely to be slighted and why this is significant; the effects on the immediate landscape; and the wider role of destruction in medieval society. The contribution of archaeology is especially important as contemporary records give little information about this phenomenon. Using information recovered from excavation and survey allows this thesis to challenge existing narratives about slighting, especially with reference to the civil war between Stephen and Matilda (1139–1154) and the view that slighting was primarily to prevent an enemy from using a fortification.

Due to these disadvantages, King William ordered that castles should be built in stone. All you need is some glue and some cereal boxes. It is a paper medieval castle and it comes with all the instructions and drawings so you can print it out and make it yourself. Explore Ginger Garden's photos on Flickr. The measurement of masonry usually used in the Middle Ages was the rod 16ft 6in, or 5m. The king, having campaigned successfully against the Welsh prince Llywelyn ab Iorwerth, was intent on creating a new castle in the area to secure the border of his realm. Have Fun with your castle and share it with your friends! Overall there are some amazing things about the building of a medieval castle and I will help you make the castle and explain different important things about it. Hopefully, we'll be making many, many more of these. There are examples of primitive "facilities" built into the stonework where waste material was dropped down "chimneys" and "lower" life emptied the waste at ground level probably used as earth improver.
