Archaeology of Cumbria ABSTRACT This thesis consists of a survey of events and materia culture in Cumbria for the period-between the withdrawal of Roman troops from Britain circa AD ^10, and the Viking settlement in Cumbria in the tenth century. An attempt has been made to view the archaeological data within the broad framework provided by environmental, historical and onomastic studies. Chapters 1-3 assess the current state of knowledge in these fields in Cumbria, and provide an introduction to the archaeological evidence, presented and discussed in Chapters ^--8, and set out in Appendices 5-10.

  • Manx Place-Names: an Ulster View
    37 Manx Place-Names: an Ulster View Kay Muhr In this chapter I will discuss place-name connections between Ulster and Man, beginning with the early appearances of Man in Irish tradition and its association with the mythological realm of Emain Ablach, from the 6th to the I 3th century. 1 A good introduction to the link between Ulster and Manx place-names is to look at Speed's map of Man published in 1605.2 Although the map is much later than the beginning of place-names in the Isle of Man, it does reflect those place-names already well-established 400 years before our time. Moreover the gloriously exaggerated Manx-centric view, showing the island almost filling the Irish sea between Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales, also allows the map to illustrate place-names from the coasts of these lands around. As an island visible from these coasts Man has been influenced by all of them. In Ireland there are Gaelic, Norse and English names - the latter now the dominant language in new place-names, though it was not so in the past. The Gaelic names include the port towns of Knok (now Carrick-) fergus, "Fergus' hill" or "rock", the rock clearly referring to the site of the medieval castle. In 13th-century Scotland Fergus was understood as the king whose migration introduced the Gaelic language. Further south, Dundalk "fort of the small sword" includes the element dun "hill-fort", one of three fortification names common in early Irish place-names, the others being rath "ring­ fort" and lios "enclosure".

INTRODUCTION 1.1 In August 2002, The Highland Council Social Work Service published the Strategic Review of Community Care Services for Older People. Within the Strategic Review, a commitment was made by Housing Services to review its sheltered housing provision. There were a number of reasons for undertaking the Sheltered Housing Review: The population projections predicting a marked increase in the number of older people in Highland over the next 10 years. The Scottish Executive Joint Future Report recommendation that older people are supported to live at home, rather than move into residential care. The need to modernise The Highland Council’s sheltered housing service, in line with these policy trends and demographics. The need to ensure that the service provided in sheltered housing is consistent across all Council Areas. 1.2 A scoping document was produced, to inform the structure and content of the Review (see Appendix One). The main areas of the Review are as follows: Literature review – investigating existing literature on sheltered housing, in particularly identifying areas of best practice; clarifying the definition of sheltered and very sheltered housing;

FOREWORD BY COUNCILLOR MICHAEL McVEIGH HERITAGE CHAMPION, COPELAND BOROUGH COUNCIL The Borough of Copeland is home to many settlements that boast a wealth of heritage assets. We have many traditional buildings and street patterns that contribute to the unique character of the Borough’s landscape. The centres of those towns and villages that have significant architectural and historic value have been designated as conservation areas, giving these special places the additional protection they need and deserve. Copeland Borough Council has commissioned this Conservation Area Design Guide to help property owners, designers and builders understand the value of the heritage within our conservation areas, and to ensure that repairs, reinstatements and alterations are undertaken in a way that preserves these important assets. As Heritage Champion, I fully endorse the design principles and guidance that this document sets out. We need to ensure our heritage is enhanced and protected for the benefit of our residents and visitors, and for current and future generations to enjoy. This document is available in different formats such as large print, braille, audio or in a different language by calling 01946 598300. CONTENTS STATUS OF THIS DOCUMENT PAGE NO. PAGE NO.

  • Place-Names in the Danelaw
    Place-names in The Danelaw One of the most noticeable differences between The Danelaw and the rest of England is that it contains many hundreds of place-names which are Scandinavian in origin. Place-name elements Most English place-names are made up of two elements (though some are three or more). In a two-element name, we call the first part the 'prefix' and the second part the 'suffix'. In The Danelaw, the prefix is often the name of the person who held that settlement. Experts in the history of names can tell us which were Viking names, so when we come across one, we can be sure that this was a settlement which came into Scandinavian possession. Prefix and suffix The suffix is usually a sort of description of the place - whether it was a village, a new 'daughter' settlement hacked out of the woodland, a solitary farm and so on. We know that certain suffixes are Scandinavian in origin. Though the spelling may vary from country to country, these suffixes and their same meanings are found all over the Viking world. Hybrids There are in The Danelaw many place-names which are combinations of a Scandinavian element and an English element. These are called 'hybrid' names. The English contribution to the hybrid name is frequently one of the suffixes -ham, -ton or -ley. GRIMSTON is one of these hybrids, the first part being the same Viking personal name found in the wholly Scandinavian place-name GRIMSBY. Scandinavian suffixes -BY The commonest Scandinavian suffix found in The Danelaw is -by.

  • December 19, 2012 President Barack Obama the White House 1600
    December 19, 2012 President Barack Obama The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, DC 20500 Dear President Obama, On Friday, December 14th the entire nation watched as parents stood outside the Sandy Hook Elementary School and waited, desperately hoping to be reunited with their children. That moment will never end for the families of the 20 children and six adults who were murdered that day at the school. As mayors, we are charged with keeping our communities safe. But too many of us have sat with mothers and fathers of children killed with guns. Twenty-four children enrolled in public schools in your hometown of Chicago were shot to death just last year. At the moving memorial service on Sunday evening, you said: “If there is even one step we can take to save another child or another parent or another town from the grief that has visited Tucson and Aurora and Oak Creek and Newtown and communities from Columbine to Blacksburg before that – then surely we have an obligation to try.” Our bipartisan coalition of more than 750 mayors has joined forces with over 700,000 Americans and more than 100 survivors of deadly shootings, including the mass shootings you mentioned in your remarks. Together, we urge you to put forward an agenda that is rooted in common sense and that will make it harder for dangerous people to possess guns, and easier for police and prosecutors to crack down on them. That agenda should: Require every gun buyer to pass a criminal background check: Background checks are the only systematic way to stop felons, domestic abusers and other dangerous people from buying firearms.
