    RE-EVALUATING MAPS OF DOMESDAY POPULATION DENSITIES: A case study from the Cambridgeshire fenland By SUSAN OOSTHUIZEN Abstract Professor Sir Clifford Darby’s county, regional and national maps of a range of data drawn from the Domesday Book revolutionized scholarship on the social and economic history of late Anglo-Saxon England (e.g. 1935, 1936a, 1936b, 1971, 1977). While this paper does not seek to challenge Darby’s general conclusions, a case study re-examination of the inter-relationship between population density and physical geography in the Cambridgeshire fenland in 1086 suggests the regional usefulness of methodological adjustments to his mapping. It indicates that the population density of the peat and silt fens in the late eleventh century may have been significantly higher than that shown in Darby’s original maps, with implications for the contemporary social and economic history of eastern England. Introduction The magnificence of many fenland churches allows even a complete stranger to infer the large numbers of inhabitants in and general prosperity of the region during the middle ages (Illustration 1, Figure 1). Its affluence is confirmed in the lay subsidies of 1327, 1332 and 1334. Settlements on the silt fens (for which there is the most information) were so prosperous that they generated among the highest returns per square mile and per vill in England, as well as some of the highest rates per taxpayer (Campbell and Bartley 2006: Maps 18.3, 18.13). Although only 20% of English settlements paid more than £225 in 1334, that select group includes not only Ely (paying £358), Leverington (paying £360), and Wisbech (paying £410) but almost every other silt fen vill (Glasscock 1973: 181-3; 1975: 28, 107, 168-9).

  • Agenda Item 10 - Page 1 4.0 CURRENT POSITION of ‘SMALL VILLAGES’ S106 ALLOCATION
    AGENDA ITEM NO 10 TITLE: The Future of Grant Funding for Small Villages Committee: Community & Environment Committee Date: Thursday 8th May 2014. Author: Julie Cornwell, Partnerships Officer. [N284] 1.0 ISSUE 1.1 To note the current levels of the ‘Small Villages’ S106 funds and the implications for this moving forwards and to one of the 2 options proposed. 2.0 RECOMMENDATION(S) 2.1 To consider the 2 options presented at 6.1 – ‘Cease offering capital grants’ and 6.2 – ‘Establish a new capital grant fund’ for the future delivery of capital grant funding for parishes with little or no S106 or CIL receipts and to recommend the preferred course of action to the Chairman’s Group. 2.2 If the option at 6.2 is selected (i.e. to set up a new Capital Grant Fund from 2015-16), to task the Corporate Governance & Finance Committee with identifying suitable funds. 3.0 BACKGROUND 3.1 Since 1st April 2008 the Council has spent the majority of its S106 allocations via a grant scheme, open to parish councils and other community based organisations that operate on a not-for-profit basis in East Cambridgeshire. There are two grant schemes: the ‘Community Facilities Section 106 Grant’, for parishes with their own allocation of S106 funding and the ‘Small Villages Grant’ for parishes without their own allocation of S106 monies, which historically has tended to be the smaller parishes in the District. ‘Small Village’ applicants can bid for a maximum of £10,000 per application. 3.2 No further monies will be added to either of these grant pots for two reasons: 1) As of February 2011 Section 106 agreements were worded to more closely align with the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) process that was due imminently.
