The county was contested during the First Civil War of 1642-6 and also saw armed conflict on a smaller scale during the Second Civil War of 1648. This detailed study provides a comprehensive bipartisan analysis of military endeavour, in terms of organisation and of the engagements fought. Drawing on numerous primary sources, it explores: leadership and administration; recruitment and the armed forces; military finance; supply and logistics; and the nature and conduct of the fighting.

  • An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
    An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.

Monument Types and Dates RINGWORK AND BAILEY (Medieval - 1066 AD to 1540 AD) Evidence EARTHWORK Description and Sources Description An earthwork revealed by tree felling, in Castlehill Wood. It was noticed in 1950 by Mr P Bentley. Opposite Buntingsdale Hall, it is a well fortified site rising out of the alluvial flat, consisting of a sandstone ridge defended by the river Tern and associated marsh on the E, SE and S sides, and on the North by a rampart with a wide external ditch . The hill top is flat, of diameter 70ft, rising 18-20ft from the ditch. A small rampart runs along the W side from the SE. ADS IAM for DOE FI 1970 <1> Large Norman ringwork, situated at SJ65103252, incorporates, and is modelled from the upper parts of a glacial morainic mound of sandy soil and small stones. The mound sits atop steep slopes falling to a stream on the E and S but joins gently rising ground to the NW. The base diameter is about 65m and the height to the interior about 3m from the outside ground level on the W. The D shaped interior is 35m in diameter and is enclosed by a rampart, 14m to 17m in width and up to 2m in height.

  • Fordhall History Report October 2010
    HISTORY OF FORDHALL TO 1914 Richard Jones & Maude Gould, 17.08.10 version FORDHALL IN THE MIDDLE AGES The earliest period for which there is definite information on the history of Fordhall is the 12th century. During that century, it is likely that the castle – the remains of which can still be seen on the farm – was built and, by 1200, it is likely that a large farm had been established in the area around the castle. Neither Fordhall nor the nearest village, Longford, appears in Domesday Book - the great land survey started in 1086 by William the Conqueror. Longford was a big village in the Middle Ages by local standards, with at least twenty households, and it is likely that there was already at least a small hamlet there in the 11th century. Longford township – the later local government unit that included Fordhall – was part of the manor of Hodnet until 1712, making it likely that information about Longford was included in the entry for Hodnet, the chief village in the manor, as happened elsewhere in Domesday Book. Longford and Fordhall’s parish church was also at Hodnet until the 19th century, although the area served by the chapel at Moreton Say formed a separate unit (including Longford and Fordhall) within the parish of Hodnet and was functioning as a parish in all but name by the 16th century. In the Middle Ages, Longford also had a small chapel of its own, dedicated to St Michael. Domesday Book shows that this area of northwest Shropshire, on the borders of Cheshire and Staffordshire, was very thinly populated in the early Middle Ages.
