    Mapping the Late Medieval and Post Medieval Landscape of Cumbria Two Volumes Volume 1: Text Caron Egerton Newman Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History, Classics and Archaeology Newcastle University Submitted: June 2014 Abstract This study is an analysis of the development of rural settlement patterns and field systems in Cumbria from the later medieval period through to the late eighteenth century. It uses documentary, cartographic and archaeological evidence. This evidence is interpreted utilising the techniques of historic landscape characterisation (HLC), map regression and maps created by the author, summarising and synthesising historical and archaeological data. The mapped settlement data, in particular, has been manipulated using tools of graphic analysis available within a Graphical Information System (GIS). The initial product is a digital map of Cumbria in the late eighteenth century, based on the county-scale maps of that period, enhanced with information taken from enclosure maps and awards, and other post medieval cartographic sources. From this baseline, an interpretation of the late medieval landscape was developed by adding information from other data sources, such as place names and documentary evidence. The approach was necessarily top-down and broad brush, in order to provide a landscape-scale, sub-regional view. This both addresses the deficiencies within the standard historical approach to landscape development, and complements such approaches. Standard historical approaches are strong on detail, but can be weak when conclusions based on localised examples are extrapolated and attributed to the wider landscape. The methodology adopted by this study allows those local analyses to be set within a broader landscape context, providing another tool to use alongside more traditional approaches to historic landscape studies.

  • Newton Arlosh
    Cumbria County Council Highways and Transport Economy and Infrastructure Directorate Joseph Noble Road Lillyhall Workington CA14 4JH T: 01946 506550 F: 01946 506537 E: [email protected] ALLERDALE SPEED LIMIT REVIEW: NEWTON ARLOSH Site description and overview: Newton Arlosh is a rural village located between Abbeytown and Kirkbride approximately 14 miles west of Carlisle. Largely residential and agricultural, it also features a church and public house. The B5307 is the main road that runs through the village, with most properties situated along it. A 30mph limit is in place throughout the village, which extends west for a considerable distance beyond the main village where it is sparsely populated. Existing traffic conditions: Compliance with the 30mph limit within the village is good; however recorded average speeds along the western fringes are typically 38mph with 85th percentile speed at 49mph. This illustrates that the 30mph speed limit is not suitable in this location, and therefore requires assessment. There is no recorded collision history throughout the whole village. Proposed changes to the speed limit: To relocate the 30mph speed limit extents nearer towards the village. The statistics clearly illustrate that the speed limit is not working in the more sparsely populated area. Moving the extents nearer to the village would ensure their relevance for the main village itself, and ensure that it is effective and enforceable. Summary of reasons for proposed change: Existing average speeds are considerably high in the location under review. Compliance is good through the main body of the village, therefore it is logical to move the 30mph extents towards the more populated area.

The shoreline is characterised by intertidal sand and mudflats, with marshes and reclaimed or improved former marshland behind. Site overview: Moricambe Bay is a natural tidal embayment, which sits within the wider estuarine system of Solway Firth. The River Waver and the River Wampool join the coast in the section, fragmenting the saltmarsh into three, Skinburness Marsh (south), Newton Marsh (central), Anthorn and Cardurnock Marsh (north). There is a short section of dunes on the eastern side of The Grune, but the remainder of the frontage is made up of saltmarsh. The Waver Channel follows the southern shoreline of the Bay flowing through the mud and sand foreshore, before connecting with the main channel of the Solway Firth.

  • Holme Cultram Abbey an Archaeological and Historical Guide 3 Introduction
    HOLME CULTRAM ABBEY AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL GUIDE 3 INTRODUCTION St Mary’s Abbey at Holme Cultram was founded by the Cistercian order of monks. This was a breakaway group from the Benedictines and had its headquarters at Citeaux in France. Cistercians are sometimes known as the White Monks because of the colour of the robes they wore. Holme Cultram is situated on naturally raised land surrounded by low-lying wetlands and marsh. The land on which the abbey was built remained dry, though surrounded by water during recent flooding in Cumbria as you can see in this photograph from 2018. In the abbey’s charters it is referred to as an island. The name Holme Cultram comes from the Old Norse ‘holmr’ which means land surrounded by water and ‘cultram’ or ‘culteram’, ‘culter’ meaning cultivated land and ‘ham’ the Old English for settlement. The earliest reference to the site is one in the ninth century which refers to a ‘Mansio’ (mansion or guest house) belonging to the See of Lindisfarne and named Culterham. There is little to see of the main monastic buildings which were situated in the field to the south of the present church, as over the years, any valuable building stone has been removed and reused. Stones from the abbey can be seen in many of the houses in the local villages. West Cumbria Archaeological Society, which has produced this guide funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund, has been researching, surveying and excavating at Holme Cultram since 2006, in association with Grampus Heritage and Training Ltd.
