Les bâtiments d’élevage et le site appartiennent à l’EARL DENGREVILLE. L’exploitation de l’EARL DENGREVILLE est une ferme de polyculture-élevage, conduite par deux associés : Sylvie et Dominique DENGREVILLE. L’élevage est situé sur la commune de MILLENCOURT-EN-PONTHIEU, au Nord-Ouest du département de la Somme. Le siège social de l’exploitation se trouve à proximité du site d’élevage, et dépend de la commune de SAINT-RIQUIER. Le site d’élevage est aux normes, et dispose d’un récépissé depuis le 20 décembre 2006 pour 100 vaches laitières et la suite ainsi que 5 bovins à l’engraissement (récépissé en annexe 1). Les bâtiments sont situés à plus de 100 mètres des tiers (320 mètres). L’exploitation est spécialisée en production laitière. Elle dispose d’un quota de 675 700 litres de lait, soit 71 % du quota de la SCL. La Surface Agricole Utile (SAU) est de 200,35 hectares, dont une partie est consacrée à l’alimentation du troupeau. La surface en herbe s’élève à 42,44 ha (31,13 ha de prairies permanentes, 4,07 ha de prairies temporaires, 7,27 ha de luzerne), ce qui représente 21 % de la SAU. L’EARL TONDELLIER dispose d’un quota de 270 000 litres de lait, soit 29 % du quota de la SCL. La SAU de l’exploitation est de 70,92 ha (100 % de terres labourables). Les éleveurs envisagent d’augmenter leur capacité de production laitière. L’objectif est de bien valoriser les investissements en cours, d’améliorer l’organisation du travail et d’anticiper l’installation du fils de M. et Mme DENGREVILLE, Romain (reprise de quota – attribution JA). Il est à noter que le projet consiste en une augmentation du nombre de places dans le bâtiment existant. Celui-ci sera réaménagé en logettes afin de loger l’augmentation d’effectifs. Une extension du bâtiment actuel des génisses sera également construite pour loger les génisses et les vaches laitières supplémentaires. Une partie de ce bâtiment passera également en logettes. Ces bâtiments sont situés à plus de 100 mètres des tiers. Le bâtiment existant des vaches laitières, dont l’aire paillée sera réaménagée en logettes, est situé à 5 mètres du cours d’eau le Scardon. Le bâtiment existant des génisses, dont une extension sera construite, est situé à plus de 35 mètres de ce cours d’eau. L’objet de la présente étude est de rappeler la situation initiale de l’exploitation, de présenter le projet d’augmentation d’effectif sur un site déjà autorisé, ainsi que les dispositions et aménagements liés à ce projet. Il s’agit également de montrer l’impact du projet sur le voisinage et l’environnement, et de lister les mesures compensatoires qui seront mises en place par les éleveurs si nécessaire. 5 EFFECTIF EXISTANT Site : 16, rue de Drugy – 80135 SAINT-RIQUIER (1) Atelier Nombre Nature Aire Exercice (1) d’animaux (1) du couchage

  • The Development of Battle Tactics in the Hundred Years War
    The Development of Battle Tactics in the Hundred Years War Matthew Bennett Arms, Armies and Fortifications in the Hundred Years War (1994) It is a common aphorism that the history of war is too important to be left to military historians. They tend to be seen as obsessed with battle with no further interest or wider understanding of the warring societies.1 In truth, they have done themselves no favours in the past by emphasising ‘decisive’ victories. This overvalues the long-term impact of even the most significant battle and distorts by undervaluing the other, far more common, activities of raid, attrition, fortification and siege in the warfare of any period. By their very nature battles are ephemeral events, and historians have to rely upon largely subjective accounts in reconstructing them. Some consider this an uncongenial or even inappropriate task for their profession. `Real’ history is to be found in the study of `real’ information, such as can be found in the administrative records of governments: musters lists, tax records, accounts, diplomatic correspondence, building records and so on. Biased and `journalistic’ reportage of chroniclers and government propagandists or the partial and often confused recollection of participants scarcely qualifies as history. Furthermore, the study of battles has tended to be conducted by soldiers. There may seem nothing wrong with this, but it has led to them drawing upon their own military experience of modern warfare without making due allowance for the differences of another place and time. Just as the historians might benefit from some practical experience of, for example, `living in the field’, the soldier historians’ often impressionistic accounts need more historical rigour.

As the kingdom of France consolidated and royal authority was extended, political power became centered in the person of the king and his bureaucratic advisers. One consequence was the decline or once powerful members of the feudal aristocracy and the queen. In the time of the early Capetians, the queen had been a true partner in power with the king, traveling with him and sharing the same household. But by 1500, she was excluded from power and participation in government, and her intimacy with the ld.ng was undermined by the formation of a separate household. By the thirteenth century the governmental functions of the queen were ceremonial, decorative, or sym­ bolic. Thus it was only under extraordinary circumstances that a queen could gain independent political power, and such was the fate of Isabeau of Bavaria. When she married Charles VI, ld.ng or France, in 1385, he was under a regency controlled by four dukes, but in three years Charles asserted his sole authority by releasing them.

  • Hue De Lannoy and the Question of the Burgundian State
    Hue de Lannoy and the question of the Burgundian State BY RICHARD VAUGHAN In March 1398 Duke Philip the Bold, first of the four Valois dukes of Burgundy, went to Brüssels to try to persuade the Estates of Brabant to accept his son Anthony as heir. The draft speech to be made to the Estates on Duke Philip's behalf by Waleran of Luxembourg, count of St. Pol, has survived and was among the many pieces printed by Kervyn de Lettenhove in his 1 twenty-five volume edition of the chronicle of Froissart ). The count was to explain that, because Philip the Bold and his family were already in possession of Flanders and were likely to obtain Hainault and Holland, a Burgundian prince would be better able to govern and defend Brabant than any other. If this came about, Philip and his sons auroient lapuissance de France et d'Angleterre, »would have the power of England or France«. The question I would like to ask here is whether or not Philip the Bold's spokesman was right; or was he being much too optimistic? In fact, could Burgundy, merely by adding a few territories, even an important territorial complex like Brabant with its associated duchy of Limbourg, have become like, or as powerful as, either France or England? Both England and France possessed, and had for some time possessed, attributes wholly lacking in Burgundy. Namely, a single substantial urban nucleus or capital city, a single language, a king, and, perhaps most importantly, a name. The significance of these attributes can easily be underlined even though we stick strictly to the facts, eschewing the romanticising hyperbole sometimes employed by over-nationalistic English and French historians.

Drawing primarily on Philip's household accounts, it undertakes complementary iconographical and prosopographical analyses (of the Order insignia's nature, form, materials, design and motto; and of distinguishing common features in recipients' careers, strengths, relationships with Philip, and activities in 1402-3), refined by reference to his policy concerns around the occasion of its bestowal, rigorously to test seven hypotheses.

    Sc.48 p788 KF: Ralph finds Ed III a man after his own heart. The king loves to fight. On the campaign, he is always ready to lead a sortie or raiding party, risking his own life without balancing cost and benefit. His appetite for violence is insatiable. His army spares no one, not even priests and nuns, as they rob, rape and burn the countryside. The older knights and earls have commented on his brutality, protesting for example about the systematic rape of the women of Caen, but Edward refused to do anything. When he was told that some of the citizens of that town had thrown stones at soldiers who were ransacking their homes, he ordered that everyone in the town should be killed and the town burned, and only relented when Sir Godfrey de Harcourt protested. See Mortimer, p229. When the campaign is over, as soon as he gets home he will start organising mock wars-tournaments-with armies of knights in expensive specially-made costumes. He holds several of these a year. KF: The king's army had got close enough to Paris to attack it, but Edward had backed away. Perhaps he flinched from attacking a city with an adult male population of fifty thousand. (He had visited Paris in his youth so he knew it.) By now, the Parisians would have heard what had happened in Caen, and would know that the arrival of the English king meant wholesale murder, rape and looting; so they would fight fiercely to defend their homes and families.
