  • Morcote in Hartpury and the Domesday Geography of Longbridge Hundred
    Trans. Bristol & Gloucestershire Archaeological Society 129 (2011), 139–145 Morcote in Hartpury and the Domesday Geography of Longbridge Hundred By SIMON DRAPER During research for the Victoria County History of Gloucestershire in Minsterworth and Lassington parishes1 new evidence has come to light that appears to challenge two long-held beliefs concerning the early history of the area: firstly, that the Domesday estate of Morcote in Longbridge hundred is identifiable with Murcott in Minsterworth and, secondly, that the eponymous ‘long bridge’ of the hundred, presumably representing its traditional meeting-place, was the Over Causeway outside Gloucester. In this article I will suggest not only that Domesday Morcote was located in the south of Hartpury parish, where documentary evidence indicates the presence of a medieval estate bearing that name, but also that the meeting-place of Longbridge hundred was a crossing of the river Leadon north of Lassington. Gloucester Abbey’s Possessions at Morcote The earliest evidence for the existence of a medieval place called Morcote within Hartpury parish comes from two charters preserved in the cartulary of Gloucester abbey. Both, which have hitherto been thought to relate to Murcott in Minsterworth,2 are headed ‘Morcote’ and record gifts to the monastery of meadow and pasture by a certain William of Morcote.3 The charter dated between 1263 and 1284 is a grant of a meadow in Morcote called ‘Radeham’ and it includes a description of the meadow’s location: ‘in length from Henry of Morwent’s meadow called Depeneye to the pasture called Sumerham, and in width between Radefelde and the water called Ledene’.4 The mention of the river Leadon immediately locates it outside Minsterworth parish, whilst the reference to Henry of Morwent suggests it was situated in Hartpury.

  • A48 Main Road Alvington Parish
    A48 Main Road Alvington Parish Appendix 8 Printable Version – (Double sided/duplex) September 2018 A48 Main Road – overview The A48 passes through the centre of Alvington, to the North for Gloucester and to the South for Chepstow, Newport and Cardiff. The A48 has very old origins, it was first thought to have been Roman, but this has never been proven. There is considerable Roman evidence in the area, thus there should be roads somewhere and hence it is easy to assume the A48 could have been Roman. There are however references to 1145 when the Bishop of Hereford granted Alvington Manor to Llanthony Priory, he mentioned the recent devastation of land and dispersal of the inhabitants and it is possible that the ordered plan of the village, with a series of long home closes, (houses with long gardens or orchards), extending North West and South East from the main Gloucester to Chepstow road, was created after the grant. This arrangement still exists today thus making it impossible to widen the A48 or the footpaths through the village. Until the first Severn and Wye Bridge crossing was opened in 1966, the A48 was part of the main route between London and South Wales. For a while the volume of traffic was greatly reduced, however the volume has increased with time. Possible reasons: 1. In 1966 not every household had a car, now 50 years later it is not uncommon for a household to have four cars. 2. Tolls on the Severn Bridge used to be split both ways but were changed to West bound only entry into Wales, hence a large number of HGV type vehicles now avoid the tolls by driving down the A48 to South Wales.
